The moon was in the sky, the night breeze was pleasant, and the young man sat alone in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon and was speechless.

"Xiao Li. A woman stood in front of the courtyard door and shouted hoarsely.

The young man came back to his senses and looked back, "Sister Hua." ”

"Went to see your brother?" the woman walked into the courtyard and sat down across from the young man.

The young man lowered his head and was silent for a while, "Yes, my mother asked me to go to the pillar incense." ”

"Ready to go out?" the woman looked at him coldly.

"I ......" The young man was a little at a loss, but calmed down again, "My brother...... Agreed. ”

"Agreed?" The woman frowned, and suddenly took off the light veil, "Look at me, does he really agree?"

There was a centipede-like scar on the woman's cheek, and from the root of her left ear to her right cheek, half of her nose was almost collapsed.

"Sister Hua......" The young man avoided the woman's face in a little panic, and took a deep breath, "My surname is Zhuge and I should take on some things, at the beginning, my brother took the responsibility of the two of us and let me live safely for six years, but he left, and those people were insulting him, using my brother's name to disgrace the Zhuge family, for five years, I ...... I can't bear it, I'm not reconciled to ......"

"But you will harm the entire Zhuge family. The woman interrupted, "Your brother asked me to bring the message and let me stay here, it's not that he owes me, the two of us never owe each other." ”

The young man was stunned, "No wonder...... No wonder you played the huqin all afternoon today, my brother asked you to remind me and ask you to stop me from going out......"

"He ended the Zhuge family with them, and from now on, they will not come to trouble the Zhuge family again, but if you go out, the Zhuge family will be involved again, and his contribution will no longer be meaningless, you know?" the woman looked sad.

The young man clenched his fists and fell silent.

The atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became gloomy.

"Leave my brother!" someone shouted at the gate of the courtyard.

The young man straightened up suddenly, frowned, and said in a detached tone, "Qingluo, why are you here?"

The woman's eyes at the gate of the courtyard darkened, and she quickly became elated, "My aunt asked me to come, saying that I have something to discuss with you." ”

"Mother, what are you looking for me to do so late?" said the young man in surprise.

"I don't know, it'll be clear when you go. Han Qingluo blinked, turned around and ran away quickly.

The young man seemed a little helpless, and looked at the woman again, "Sister Hua, I'll go first." ”

"I won't stop you if you go out or not, but I hope you can think about it, a comfortable family, you weigh it yourself. The woman quickly put on her veil, stood up, and turned to leave.

"I ......" the young man's heart was blocked, "Sister Hua, Sister Hua!"

The woman never looked back, and soon left the young man's sight.

The young man covered his face a little dejectedly, and muttered in pain, "But, what about the efforts of the ancestors of the Zhuge family?"

On the roof, a young man who happened to pass by and listened to his ears sighed, although he didn't understand it at all, but he intuitively felt that someone should be very interested in these words.

"But, where did that man go?" the young man frowned, and his figure flashed and left directly.

After a long while, the young man let out a long breath of turbidity, stood up, and left the courtyard.

Walking through a long corridor, the young man quickly arrived at the old lady's room and knocked on the door.

"Young Master. "One of the two maidservants I saw in the evening came running to open the door," the old lady waited. ”

"Mother, why is it so late...... the young man entered the room and was stunned, "Qingluo, why are you here?"

"Come and sit. The old lady sat on the soft couch, patted the edge of the couch on her left, and said to the two maidservants beside her, "Xiao Man, Xiao Wu, go to sleep." ”

The two maidservants withdrew.

"My aunt asked me to come too. Han Qingluo lowered her head and whispered.

The young man glanced at the old lady twice, vaguely guessed a few points, and couldn't help frowning, "Qingluo, you go back first." ”

"Don't listen to him, just stay here. The old lady patted Han Qingluo's hand.

"Mother!" the young man shouted with a frown.

"Li'er is twenty-eight years old this year, and it's time to think about lifelong events. The old lady said with a smile on her face.

The young man's breath stagnated, "Mother, child......"

"Before, if you didn't have a mind, your mother wouldn't force you, but now you're ready to see it, and it's time to start a family. The old lady stood up and pulled the young man over.

The youth is a little cramped, "child...... Haven't decided yet...... Isn't it time to ......?"

"Then you should also get married, Qingluo has been waiting for you for eight years, and then you will be an old girl. The old lady touched Han Qingluo's head.

Han Qingluo glanced at the young man, and her hands were unconsciously twisted together.

"Child...... Ten years younger than her, it's not appropriate. The young man glanced at Han Qingluo and shook his head.

"There are a lot of girls in that town, but if you want to find a widow Chen who is the same age as you, that is, in the west of the town, if you want, my mother will go to propose tomorrow. The old lady was not in a hurry, and said unhurriedly.

"Mother, ...... you" The young man was choked, not to mention whether he was willing or not, the Zhuge family has been a scholarly family since ancient times, how could it be possible to let ominous people enter the door.

"Aunt, it's so aggrieved to leave my brother. Han Qingluo stood up abruptly and said indignantly.

"Don't worry, don't worry, didn't you say to see your aunt," the old lady grabbed Han Qingluo and pinched Han Qingluo's nose, "Girl, aunt asks you, if you marry into my Zhuge family, do you feel wronged?"

"I think about it in my dreams, how can I feel wronged. Han Qingluo opened her mouth and said, and immediately blushed after speaking, and didn't know what to think, so she lowered her head and stopped talking.

The young man's face was cloudy when he heard this, "Mother, you can take your time in this matter." ”

"Take your time?" said the old lady's complexion.

"Agreed, but the child still wants to think again. The young man shook his head.

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and said inexplicably, "Over the years, those people who have never been leaned out of the family. ”

She smiled, "If you want to do it, do it boldly, don't think so much, there are few people in this world who are clear, and even fewer people are willing to take risks, and now there are fewer and fewer people, and they are almost gone." ”

The young man was stunned and was silent for a few breaths, "The child knows. ”

"What about Qingluo?" said the old lady with a smile.

The young man glanced at Han Qingluo, who didn't know if she was depressed or something else, and then looked at the old lady, "The child agreed." ”

Han Qingluo froze for a moment.

"That's right. The old lady patted the young man's hand, "Okay, it's not early, you go to sleep." Tonight, Qingluo will sleep with her mother, right?"

"Yes, the child is gone. The young man frowned and glanced at Han Qingluo, then turned to leave.

"What...... What?" Han Qingluo blinked, a little unresponsive.

"Look at you stupid. The old lady nodded Han Qingluo's head, "Mother said that he would agree, don't you believe it?"

"But, aunt, what do you say...... It seems like...... It's a threat to leave my brother. Han Qingluo stammered a little and said, she wanted to slap herself after speaking, what was she talking about.

The old lady didn't care, "What, it's still called aunt?"

"I ...... I'm not ......" Han Qingluo hurriedly waved her hand, and after a while, she felt that it was not right to say anything, so she shouted obediently, "Mother." ”

"That's right. The old lady immediately smiled, gently pulled Han Qingluo, held it in her arms, and suddenly looked gloomy, and said in a trance, "Aren't you really wronged?"

Han Qingluo didn't know what to think, and her expression was not so trance-like, but her face was a little sad, but she soon laughed again and said loudly, "Don't be wronged." ”
