Chapter 64: The Suitor

In the blink of an eye, before Zhang Jiao could react, she found that she had also been in Collin County for half a year.

But it's normal.

Since a few months ago, when she was able to use her arm as usual, she was going crazy. Betsy followed her, and persuasion from left to right could not stop her.

Today I rode around the roads of Collinshire, tomorrow I put on a new dress and went to the ball, and occasionally I lived a quieter day and did some handicrafts with the maid.

It can be said that life is full and wonderful.

Not to mention that on Valentine's Day, she also gathered half of the red roses in the garden and went to the central street of Corlinshire to sell flowers to the hordes of young couples.

Not to mention, she actually made a lot of money, but she gave it to her bodyguards as a holiday benefit.

We have to make everyone happy with us!

In the morning, Zhang Jiao was woken up by the chirping of birds.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes, opened the curtains, and witnessed a wonderful scene by chance.

It's very strange! There are actually three birds fighting in a group!

Zhang Jiao moved the round stool and watched the follow-up with relish.

The three little birds gathered together, you pecked me and I scratched you, entangled from the treetops on the side of the house to the roof, and from the roof to Zhang Jiao's balcony.

Probably tired from the fight, the three birds rested separately for a while.

At this time, Zhang Jiao realized that it was two groups of birds! It's a one-on-two situation on the pitch at the moment.

Even if they don't peck each other, they don't stop.

"Twitter...... especially this warrior who is one against two, he keeps scolding his opponent in anger, full of posture, as if he is scolding the other party for being shameless.

Its two opponents were indeed enraged, and they pounced together to fight the warriors to the death.

The warriors were not intimidated and gladly faced the battle.

Unfortunately, although the momentum was strong, after all, it was difficult to defeat the four hands with two fists, and the heroic warrior was defeated, and his wings were also injured in the fight, and he fluttered for a long time and did not fly half a foot high.

The other two birds chirped triumphantly, flapped their wings and flew around it a few times, and flew away proudly, very disdainful of talking to the loser.

Zhang Jiao was so amused, this was the first time she had seen birds fight!

Unbeknownst to the audience, the warrior fluttered his wounded wings miserably and flew back to his nest ——— tree on the side of the balcony.

After Zhang Jiao washed up, she stood in the staircase corridor on the second floor, shouting to her personal maid, "Becky! Becky! ”

"I'm here! Miss. Becky panted and ran in through the side door leading to the garden, holding a bouquet of brightly colored moonflowers with a few droplets.

After the spring blossoms, Becky would cut a bouquet of flowers in the garden every morning, and when Miss Shou got up, she would replace the flowers in the vase that was on her dresser.

"Do you have any orders?" She struggled to calm her breathing.

Zhang Jiao replied, "You can help me send a handful of millet to the room." "She's going to feed the fierce bird.

Becky didn't know why, but did it anyway.

She went to the kitchen and took a small bowl, filled half a bowl of millet, and sent it upstairs with the flowers in her hand.

Zhang Jiao waited at the door, happily took the small bowl, and jumped out of the glass door of the balcony.

Betsy shook her head, accustomed to holding the vase to change the water. She is no longer curious about the ghost ideas that Zhang Jiao pops up from time to time.

Outside, the open-air balcony is enclosed by a circle of thin stone pillars, which are joined together by thick stone slabs and cement to form a narrow platform.

Zhang Jiao sprinkled millet on the platform closest to the warrior's house, hoping that the wounded warrior would see the food and help it not go hungry during his illness.

After finishing the work, Zhang Jiao specially hid back in the room, waiting for the warrior to appear.

It's a pity that she didn't see the warrior until her own stomach was growling with hunger.

I had to go and fill my stomach first.

After breakfast, Zhang Jiao didn't wait for the warrior anymore, but sat in the living room, and continued to learn to wrap flowers with the skillful maid, planning to make a hairpin for herself.

If the results are good, she also wants to make a trinket for several sisters.

The premise is that all procedures go well.

"Miss, there's a guest." When Becky came to say goodbye, Zhang Jiao was irritable and irritable with the silk thread that was accidentally tied into a dead knot.

She frowned impatiently, "Who's coming?" ”

Becky shook her head, she hadn't seen it nearby, "I said I made an appointment with you, and I was an international student from the East." ”

Zhang Jiao suddenly, oh, then she seems to be able to guess who it is. "Okay, you let him in."

She asked the maid to clean up the knotted silk thread and wrap it around the loop, and when she returned, she continued to make hairpins.

Then Zhang Jiao got up and went to change her clothes, she wanted to see the other party's intentions.

Some time ago, Zhang Jiao was greedy for freshness, went to a dance party held by her next-door neighbor, and met a young man who liked to sell guanzi.

Zhang Jiao remembered that she was sitting in the corner quietly watching everyone dance, when she was suddenly called out by him.

Zhang Jiao glanced at him sideways, feeling that he was very kind, "You have something?" ”

He smiled and bent down to salute, saying, "May I ask you to do a dance?" Beautiful young lady. ”

His voice was low, and Zhang Jiao liked it very much.

So, she replied, "Of course! ”

happened to be a new dance song in the venue at that time, and he directly led Zhang Jiao onto the dance floor.

Zhang Jiao tentatively said, "Are you Asian? ”

Her question was not abrupt, but his Oriental face was too obvious. Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a slightly flat face, with full oriental characteristics.

It's just that Zhang Jiao doesn't know which country he is from for the time being.

"Yes, I'm Chinese." He spoke proudly, without the slightest hint of concealment.

There was a hint of surprise in Zhang Jiao's eyes, "It's a coincidence, so am I." My name is Zhang Jiao, what about you? ”

Strangely, he was not surprised by Zhang Jiao's answer, as if he had known the news for a long time.

"I'm Wei Zizhou."

Zhang Jiao felt the difference, "You know me? ”

"I've heard something about you." Wei Zizhou spoke with a smile, as if he knew how interesting Zhang Jiao was.

It also made Zhang Jiao frown. "Really? What have you heard? ”

"A lot. For example, why you came to Collin County, where you came from, etc. Wei Zizhou did not hide it, he was particularly frank. He had indeed heard of Zhang Jiao, a descendant of the Harrington family.

The Wei family also has some business dealings with Hongji Shipping, and the cooperative relationship can be traced back to more than ten years ago. It's not surprising to know some things about Zhang Jiao.

This time I was able to meet Zhang Jiao because of a coincidence, Wei Zizhou and his friends met for a study tour, and came to Collin County, because of the beautiful scenery here, he rented a small manor with his friends and planned to live here for a while.

Yesterday, I was invited by the landlord to come to the ball.

When Zhang Jiao stepped into the door, Wei Zizhou found her, and heard from everyone that she was the young lady of the Earl of Notting.

Wei Zizhou knew her origin before and after.

"The two of us are business partners. Coincidentally, my dad went to your parents' wedding! ”

What he said was not a secret, and there was even evidence for it. I heard that the relationship between the two families was not bad, and Zhang Jiao's tone was much better.

said in a mocking tone, "So you took the initiative to invite me to dance in order to continue the friendship between the two next generations?" ”

Wei Zizhou shook his head with a smile, "Of course it's for you!" ”

Zhang Jiao: ??? Foreshadowing for so long, just to say this?

She laughed dryly twice and politely refused, "Hehe, thank you!" I have no interest in this at the moment. ”

Wei Zizhou didn't give up, and continued to fight, "Then let's start by being friends!" If, after getting along further, you are still not interested in me, then I will not mention it. ”

"By the way, introduce yourself again! My name is Wei Zizhou, my English name is Ricky, I am 24 years old this year, and I am a graduate student at Y University. The reason why I'm here is because I'm on a study tour with my classmates......"

He also memorized his family background smoothly, and Zhang Jiao was stunned when he heard it.

"Okay, do you know my basic situation now?" Wei Zizhou asked, with a bright smile on his face, and his eyes never left Zhang Jiao's eyes.

This attitude can only be described as particularly sincere.

Zhang Jiao nodded awkwardly, "Understood, understood." ”

"Is there anything else you'd like to know?" Wei Zizhou is good at playing straight balls, and he is sunny.

Looking at such a sincere face, Zhang Jiao couldn't think of how to answer for a while, and said hesitantly: "No, I understand." ”

It just so happened that the music was over at this time, and she hurriedly pushed Wei Zizhou away and ran away.

Vaguely she heard Wei Zizhou say, "I'll look for you in a few days!" ”

Good morning, the first day of September!
