Chapter 91: The walking dead

Jiang Xiaolou looked polite and smiled warmly: "I'm not in good health, but you are in good health. I'm not sure-you will live longer than me."
After hearing this, Qin Si subconsciously got a cold back, faintly having a bad premonition. Of course he knew that Jiang Xiaolou would not let him go, but what exactly was she going to do?
Jiang Xiaolou glanced at Chu Han, his voice was light and fluttering, and the wind disappeared as soon as the wind blew: "Brother Chu, aren't you the person who hates rebellion the most? The beast in front of him killed his own mother, so dehumanizing and devoid of conscience. , How do you treat him?"
Chu Han had always been a rough man, and he was rarely so furious. Without thinking about it, he stepped forward and broke Qin Si's little finger. Qin Si let out a miserable cry, Chu Han was merciless, and then stepped off his ring finger, middle finger, index finger, and thumb, and then his second hand. In the end, his hands were already and unsightly.
Chu Han said angrily: "The kindness of your parents is greater than the heavens. A live animal like you really deserves a thousand swords!"
Jiang Xiaolou sighed faintly: "Look, how good is this pair of hands. In the past, you like to chant poems and write lyrics, and use these two hands to write wonderful poems, so that the old man can do the research. Originally you should Using these hands to benefit the people and divide the country’s sorrows, but what did you do with them in the end? You killed your own sister and mother with your own hands. It is really terrible and hateful."
With ten fingers connected to the heart, Qin Si's whole mind was completely torn by the pain, and his eyes were blood-red and full of hatred at Jiang Xiaolou.
Jiang Xiaolou took a step back gently, no joy or anger could be seen on his almost transparent face in the sun: "Look, Brother Chu, he still doesn't seem to know what's wrong."
Chu Han hates this kind of ungrateful and unfilial parents, a beast who can even ignore his relationships. No matter what punishment he receives, he takes it for granted. Raising his hand, the two flying nails went straight into Qin Si's eyes. Qin Si yelled, "Aw", and suddenly covered his face, blood continuously flowed out from between his fingers, and soon the blood poured over his face.
There was a quiet smile between Jiang Xiaolou's eyebrows: "With a pair of strong legs, he can go very far."
Without blinking, Chu Han drew out his long sword, his sharp edge flashed, and he snapped Qin Si's hamstrings quickly.
Killing hands, calculating eyes, running away legs, what's next?
"Yes, there is another tongue that is always framing others."
Qin Si never expected Jiang Xiaolou to be so vicious, he shouted angrily: "Jiang Xiaolou, you will have retribution, you will definitely have retribution!"
Jiang Xiaolou smiled softly: "You know, yesterday I went to the temple to ask for a talisman. The Bodhisattva said that I will live a hundred years and be safe. Where is the revenge you said, I will wait. Unfortunately, I don’t know if you can still see it. Brother Chu, you have to act lightly and save his life so that he can see me happy and safe."
Chu Han squeezed Qin Si's chin, and quickly pulled out his tongue as if pulling out a fish gill.
Qin Si's mouth was full of blood, but Chu Han stuffed a pot of herbs into his mouth and sneered, "I still have to endure these bitter days. Take it well."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled: "Your disguise was not clever enough just now. Isn't this recognized by me? So for your sake, I added a layer of protective color for you. Tsk tsk, I am afraid that this look is not right now. People can recognize it, so you can beg with peace of mind." After speaking, she raised her voice: "Wednesday Lang, did you hear me?"
On Wednesday Lang got out of the alley and nodded and said, "Yes, miss, I heard it all."
Jiang Xiaolou threw a piece of gold to him, a thin smile curled over his lips, and said, "From now on, you will be responsible for supervising this beggar and let him walk all over the streets. Oh, I forgot. , He has no feet and cannot walk."
"It doesn't matter, miss, I will order someone to drag him." Wei Lang patted his chest without hesitation.
Jiang Xiaolou nodded softly: "If he can't ask for something, give some leftovers, only one, don't let him die!"
As long as Jiang Xiaolou is rich, Wednesday Lang will be regarded as the golden rule, and he quickly said: "Yes, don't worry, miss, I naturally know what to do." Now that he understands Jiang Xiaolou's intentions, Wednesday Lang will only double down and scold. , Corporal punishment, tortured Qin Si with hunger and freezing. Forcing him to go out begging day and night, if there is any resistance, it will only double the torture and not even give him a chance to escape. In this life, I can only beg until death.
Qin Si crawled on the ground like a puddle of mud. He desperately recognized the surrounding footsteps, a pair of blood-hole eyes staring into the inexplicable void.
Jiang Xiaolou's voice is slow and elegant: "You should thank me, at least I didn't send you to the execution ground. It would be boring to kill you with a single blow, isn't it? Qin Tanhua, enjoy your future life."
Qin Si kept scratching the yellow sand on the ground, bewilderedly identifying the direction of Jiang Xiaolou, but the only response to him was a fierce kick: "Start work, don't be lazy!"
Hearing this, Qin Si made a grunting noise in his throat, his tongue had been pulled out, and there was nothing that could prove his identity except for a pair of ears that could hear outside sounds. Even if he can prove it, if outsiders know who he is, there is only one dead end! At this point, even if he wanted to die, he couldn't ask for it.
If I knew I wanted to live like this, I would rather end my life earlier. It's better to be tortured for a lifetime and fall into completely.
Jin Yu Man Tang
Jiang Xiaolou returned to the elegant room, always smiling.
Seeing her, Li Xuening ran into the tea cup in a panic. The tea was spilled all over the table, and she bowed her head again, hurriedly tidying up. After finishing it up, he looked up and smiled reluctantly: "I'm back."
Seeing her look strange, Jiang Xiaolou frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"
Seeing that Li Xuening was silent, Xiaodie said first: "Princess Qing is here, she must see Miss Li, so she refused to leave. Now people are in Xiaohua Hall"
Jiang Xiaolou added a gentle smile on his face, glanced at Li Xuening lightly, and said, "I'm going to see Princess Qing."
Li Xuening was startled, and immediately refused: "No, I won't see her, and you don't want to see her either!"
Jiang Xiaolou smiled softly, stopped speaking, turned around and left the elegant room.
"Xiaolou!" Li Xuening didn't expect that she would do what she said, and was very nervous for a while, and hurriedly chased after her.
Princess Qing was sitting in the Xiaohua Hall in full dress, her soft face covered with melancholy and worried. There is a white glaze carved lotus tea cup in front of the table. The tea is cold for some time, and there is no warmth. She just stared at the tea cup quietly, her eyes straight, not knowing what she was thinking.
Jiang Xiaolou entered the Flower Hall, and Li Xuening chased him.
When Princess Qing heard the footsteps, she turned her head and looked at it. First she was stunned. When she saw Li Xuening, she immediately stood up and couldn't help crying, "Daughter, are you finally willing to come to see me?"
Jiang Xiaolou looked at Princess Qing carefully. From her appearance, her facial features were 50 to 60% similar to those of Li Xuening. Judging from the appearance, this blood relationship was firmly established. Thinking of Li Xuening's close family and affection, she fully understood what the other party was thinking about, and said: "Please hold back the princess."
Princess Qing was taken aback, and then noticed that there was a beautiful young woman standing beside her. A long dress of lotus color, black clouds on the temples, eyes like stars, and the corners of the lips are slightly upturned. When not smiling, they are also smiling. There was a look of confusion in her eyes, but she still waved her hand and ordered all the maids to leave the flower hall. Jiang Xiaolou gave a wink and asked Xiaodie to guard carefully outside. Only then did he say word by word: "Wang Hao, do you know why Xue Ning doesn't recognize you?"
"Jiang Xiaolou! You say half a word, our sisters have nothing to do!" Li Xuening was originally very gentle, but at this moment she suddenly called out, her voice was never before.
Jiang Xiaolou turned his head to look at her, his eyes clear as water, but his tone was very firm: "Xue Ning, if some things are not completely ended, they will become a lifelong malignant tumor, which will always be on your back, making you uncomfortable and painful. You know my personality very well. If I insist on saying it, no one can stop it. Even if you are angry with me today, you will ignore me in the future. As your friend, I still insist on finishing talking!"
Jiang Xiaolou is different from Li Xuening. Nine cows can't get back what she insists on. Li Xuening knew this deeply, but was helpless. Her shell teeth bit her lips tightly until her pale lip color became a little faintly pink, her mouth opened, but she couldn't say a word.
Jiang Xiaolou turned to face the bewildered Princess Qing, and the smile on her face was three-pointed coldly: "Wang Princess, I know you really want mother and daughter to recognize each other and family reunion. But I want to ask you a few questions. , If you can answer, I will let Xue Ning leave with you."
Princess Qing was stunned: "You ask."
"Princess, do you know how Xue Ning lived in the past? In order to survive, she would betray herself and be reduced to the bottom of the brothel woman. Wandering around, loved by thousands, abandoned by others, her parents and children died tragically, and she was seriously ill. Many people can only go through the tragic experience in a few years. She has experienced it in just a few years. Now her body can’t support for long, she is already dying. She doesn’t recognize you, not because she doesn’t want to, but because she can’t. Once you recognize it, can you accept such a daughter, will you feel humiliated, will you hurt her? Now, please think about it before answering me."
Concubine Qing's face was pale, her lips squirmed as if she was about to speak, and tears flowed down before making a sound. The crystal teardrops wetted her skirt and hurt Li Xuening's heart.
Jiang Xiaolou knew that bursting out such news once was a heavy blow to Princess Qing, but in her opinion, if she continued to entangle Xue Ning, she would only become more painful. If you are constantly interrupted and suffer from the chaos, you must cut the chaos quickly: "If you can accept it, you can recognize this daughter today. If you can't, please leave immediately, and never step into the golden hall from now on."
She said categorically, without hesitation, and her expression was so firm. Princess Qing was shocked, her eyes turned to Li Xuening with tears. Li Xuening turned her face away and refused to look at her, but her cheeks were already wet, as if even the tassels between her temples were weeping. This is her daughter. How could she have suffered so much if she lived outside? Everything was her fault... Princess Qing finally said, "Xue'er, is this the reason you don't recognize me?"
Li Xuening didn't say a word, just clenched her fists, and lowered her long eyelashes to cover the tears of stars under her eyes.
Princess Qing stepped forward with heavy steps. At first she walked very slowly, but when she saw the encouraging smile on the floor of Jiang Xiao, she couldn't help but speed up. She quickly stepped forward, pulled Li Xuening's hand down, and held it in her palm, with a very gentle tone: "No matter what you have encountered, it is all the mother's fault. I didn't take good care of you. Xue. Son, my Cher, I don’t care what you have experienced in the past, or whether you are sick or not, I will treat you, and will stay with you forever. You are my daughter. together."
Li Xuening was startled suddenly, burst into tears like a sudden collapse, and subconsciously fell into the arms of the princess.
The corner of Jiang Xiaolou's lips contained a frivolous smile, "Isn't it all right?"
Xie House
When Jiang Xiaolou came to visit Xie Kanghe again, his health was much better. After walking with him in the garden for a while, seeing him coughing slightly, Jiang Xiaolou immediately sent him back.
When I was about to go out, I saw Xie Liancheng walking towards her, and a smile floated on his lips: "Lord, long time no see."
Xie Liancheng looked at her with a particularly gentle expression: "I heard that Miss Li has returned to the Qing Palace and recognized her biological parents."
Jiang Xiaolou responded with a smile, "I didn't expect that Xue Ning was the missing daughter of Princess Qing. It's a coincidence."
Xie Liancheng had a faint smile on her face, but she seemed to have a shallow gentleness: "After Miss Li moved out, you did not live in Jiangfu, but chose to live in the backyard of the restaurant, did you?"
"It seems that I can't hide anything from the eyes of the old man. Yes, the Jiang family is too big. Only me and Xiaodie. It is better to live in a restaurant. It is more convenient to do things. There is no need to go back and forth." Jiang Xiaolouhao Answer without hesitation.
In her dark eyes, it seemed as if a bright star flashed by, obviously hiding something. Xie Liancheng did not reveal the fact that she was afraid of loneliness, but continued to accompany Jiang Xiaolou out, saying: "If there is any need, please let Chu Han come to me at any time."
Jiang Xiaolou's smiling lips turned into a thin ridicule: "Now you don't hide Chu Han as your person anymore?"
Xie Liancheng curled his lips slightly: "Do you insist that I sent a spy by your side?"
Jiang Xiaolou stared at him unconsciously, and laughed subconsciously: "Lord, don't you tell me, you are interested in me?"
It was just a joking statement. Xie Liancheng was stunned for a while and did not speak for a long time. Just when Jiang Xiaolou thought he would laugh, he smiled and slowly answered, "Yes, I like you."
Jiang Xiaolou's expression was slightly shocked, and his eyes instantly lost three points, taking a deep breath, and she answered calmly: "I have no heart, and I don't understand the meaning of the word like."
Xie Liancheng just smiled, and his smile exuded a faint gentleness: "This, I already knew this when I knew you."
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes were exceptionally clear: "I thought the son was a person who didn't care about the world."
Xie Liancheng sighed slightly, "I used to think so."
Jiang Xiaolou couldn't think that the two of them could discuss this issue calmly. It seemed that any weird thing happened to Xie Liancheng, he could take it for granted.
After thinking about it for a moment, she didn't realize she smiled: "Since the son is interested in me, why did you reject Uncle Xie's proposal in the first place?"
Xie Liancheng heard her words narrow, but only smiled: "No matter how unrestrained people in this world are, they are always sad. At first, I always thought that I could avoid vulgarity, and more importantly, I like someone and do everything possible to get her. They are completely different things. In other words, I have figured it out."
Jiang Xiaolou was slightly surprised: "Did you figure it out?"
Xie Liancheng looked at ease: "Yes, I figured it out. Do I like you, so what? Does this affect the relationship and friendship between you and me? Whether we are friends or lovers, we like each other. The most basic one. If you like it lightly, you can be a friend; if you like it deeply, you can become a lover. In that case, why should I be too persistent."
Jiang Xiaolou hesitated: "But in most people's eyes, the two are different."
The smile on Xie Liancheng’s lips is very peaceful:
If you have requirements for someone you like, I hope he can return one day, it’s naturally different. When someone falls in love with someone, you can’t help but hope that that person will come. Repay yourself. When you don’t get the same love, you will feel pain, jealousy, and unbearable. But for me, as long as I can see the people I like happy and happy every day, it’s quite enough."
Jiang Xiaolou was stunned. Everyone knew this, but how many people could do it? Love is possession and jealousy. If you don't want to monopolize your lover, this kind of love will become a flower in a mirror, a moon in the water, and you can't touch it at all.
Xie Liancheng just looked at her calmly: "I have been preventing you from taking revenge, not because your methods of revenge contradict my rules of words and deeds. The most important reason is that even if you take revenge, you will not really get relief. It takes a lot of effort to love someone, and it is more sad to hate someone than to love someone. Wasting time on a meaningless person will become a lifetime pain."
Seeing him change the subject, Jiang Xiaolou just said indifferently: "My son, sometimes you should not live sober as a person and do things. That would make you unhappy."
Xie Liancheng sighed slightly: "I know that everyone has their own code of conduct. No matter what, I respect your decision."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the maidservant in Tsing Yi walking quickly and saluting: "Miss Jiang, Master, please stay for dinner."
Although Jiang Xiaolou had left Xie's house, in Xie Kanghe's heart, she was still a member of the Xie Mansion. If she left now, Xie Kanghe would feel lonely in his heart. Jiang Xiaolou said sincerely, "I see, you go."
After looking back, the long figure had already gone far. As Zhu Ying shook, his figure slowly merged into the little emerald, and gradually disappeared.
During the meal, Xie Kanghe was rarely in high spirits, and ordered to fill the glass.
Wang Baozhen said softly and comforted: "Master, I'm just right, drinking alcohol hurts my body."
Xie Kanghe smiled and said: "What are you afraid of, I am happy today! Xiaolou told me that it turned out that Miss Li turned out to be the Missing Princess Yaoxue in the Qing Palace, which is incredible."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled slightly: "Everything is a coincidence, and it is also Xue Ning's blessing to have such honorable biological parents."
Others on the table thought of Li Xuening’s appearance of falling down as soon as the wind blew, and couldn’t help sighing that he had lost sight of him. Who would have thought that an inconspicuous girl was actually a distinguished princess. Some regrets, if it was a friendly relationship with each other...
Wang Baozhen smiled profoundly: "Xiaolou, aren't you and Xue Ning good friends, do you miss her very much when you are separated now?"
Jiang Xiaolou looked at the opposite side leisurely, and immediately smiled: "There is a banquet in the world, and we can't be together forever. What's more, the Qing Palace is in the capital, and you can visit it at any time."
Xie Xiang's eyes moved, and tentatively asked: "But in the first place-how did the princess lose?"
Jiang Xiaolou glanced at her indifferently: "It's just a misunderstanding. If the princess doesn't say it, I won't ask."
Li Xuening's days are running out. It is a great fortune to be reunited with his family in the last time, so why bother to pursue everything in the past? Coupled with her gentle temperament, gentle and considerate, Qing Wangfu is her close relative and will definitely take good care of her.
Halfway through the meal, someone unexpectedly appeared in the hall.
Xie Kanghe looked at the man in front of him, his eyes almost falling off: "Madam, why are you here today?"
There was a reserved smile on Madam Xie's thin lips: "It's okay. I haven't come out for a long time to sit. It's rare that the house is so lively today. I just came out for a walk, don't care about me, you continue to eat."
Wang Baozhen stood up immediately, gave the position to Mrs. Xie, and stood aside to serve her in fear and respect with a respectful attitude.
Madam Xie smiled slightly, but her eyes kept falling on Jiang Xiaolou, showing a thoughtful look. Every time Jiang Xiaolou raised his head, he found that the other party was looking at him, as if he had something to say.
It is strange that everyone was talking and laughing just now. When Mrs. Xie appeared, the whole table was quiet, except for the occasional light noise of chopsticks and dishes, almost silent. Even Xie Chun, the five most lively young lady, held the chopsticks in his hand tightly, unable to hide the tension in the corners of his eyes.
After a meal, Mrs. Xie said to Jiang Xiaolou lightly, "It's still early, can you accompany me to the yard and see the bamboo I planted by myself?"
Mrs. Xie refused to invite others to go with him. Xie Liancheng watched them leave, frowning deeply.
Mrs. Xie was very interested and introduced Jiang Xiaolou one by one where she walked. She was attentive and kind, with a gentle tone. Jiang Xiaolou felt a little strange. Mrs. Xie was an isolated person, and didn't care about anything except eating the house. She will never forget that on the day Xie Kanghe fell ill, Mrs. Xie never came to visit... But today she behaved very strangely, not only came out to have a meal, but even invited her to appreciate bamboo.
Madam Xie stopped and turned to look into Jiang Xiaolou's eyes. Those clear eyes can almost shine into the moon shadow of Tan Dan: "You are a sensitive and thoughtful child. You should guess what I have to say."
Jiang Xiaolou was a little surprised, his brows frowned slightly.
The smile on Mrs. Xie's lips slowly turned into nothingness: "I know that you are proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and have a delicate mind, and can do business. She is an extremely good girl."
Jiang Xiaolou's gaze fell straight on the opposite side, and a little enlightenment came vaguely in his heart. She sighed softly, and her tone was steady: "Where, Madam is too rewarding, I am just an ordinary woman, and there is nothing outstanding."
Mrs. Xie smiled, and pointed her slender fingers at a moonlit bamboo: "Look, this bamboo is a famous bamboo in Cangzhou. It can grow into a large piece on any piece of land in Cangzhou. But that's it. After I ordered the people to plant the high-quality seeds, I invited the best gardener to take care of them. After doing everything possible to spend money, it always grows very thin."
"No matter what kind of bamboo it is, it must grow in the soil that is most suitable for you." Mrs. Xie stopped here, her eyes scanned the Jiang Xiaolou coldly, "The soil of Xie's family is very fertile, but it may not be able to Plant Cangzhou bamboo. Miss Jiang, do you think I am right?"
What a clever person Jiang Xiaolou is, of course he understood the hint in the words, a kind of irritation rose slowly in his heart, but his face remained calm.
Mrs. Xie asked again: "You and Liancheng-are you getting along well?"
Jiang Xiaolou's jade-colored skin glowed under the moon, and his jet-black eyes looked like fire: "The old man is a good man."
"Being helpful and liking you are two different things." Madam Xie said suddenly.
Jiang Xiaolou frowned: "Ma'am, is this suggesting that I should stay away from the son?"
"From the first time I saw you, I knew that you were a brilliant woman. With just a few words, you can understand my true meaning." Madam Xie took a deep breath and said seriously. Under the moon, her face looked a little unhealthy white and dull, except for those eyes that were three-point similar to Xie Liancheng, shining brightly.
Jiang Xiaolou did not have much friendship with Xie Liancheng, and Mrs. Xie's move today is really unkind.
Seeing her complexion, Madam Xie couldn't help sighing: "Liancheng is my son. I hope to give him the best things in the world, so that he can be happy and safe in his life. Miss Jiang, don't blame me for troubles. You and Liancheng have no part in the marriage book."
Jiang Xiaolou gently raised his long eyelashes, his eyes seemed to condense the bright stars in the sky, and he said one word: "Madam is too worried, there is nothing else between my son and me except the friendship of friends."
Madam Xie looked deeply into her eyes, as if shocked by her determination, she was speechless for a while.
At this moment, Xie Liancheng walked out of the garden. He saw the candlelight here from a distance and took the initiative to walk over. He happened to see them two and couldn't help smiling: "Mother, what are you doing?"
Mrs. Xie immediately put on a smiling face: "It's nothing, Miss Jiang just accompanied me to watch the bamboo."
On the carriage, Jiang Xiaolou didn't say a word, and appeared extremely silent. Even Fluttershy felt the awkward atmosphere in the carriage, but she shrank away and did not dare to make a sound.
Xie Liancheng looked at her and interrupted the silence: "No matter what my mother said, don't take it to heart."
Jiang Xiaolou looked up at him, his eyes suddenly ran into his deep eyes: "Please leave me as far as you can get away from me in the future, please don't do anything that makes people misunderstanding." Jiang Xiaolou told Xie Liancheng No interest, and even less willing to accept other people's grievances for no reason. First Xie Yu, then Mrs. Xie, if it were not for Xie Kanghe's face, she would never accept any unprovoked accusations.
Xie Liancheng was taken aback and couldn't help smiling wryly: "If you really don't care, why are you angry with me?"
Jiang Xiaolou heard his heartbeat clearly, and was startled for a while. Yes, why should she be angry? For her, Xie Liancheng is just a friend who meets by water. Even if he liked her, Fu Chaoxuan liked him very much. When dealing with Fu Chaoxuan, she has been able to maintain a very calm attitude. Why is she upset after Mrs. Xie said a few words? Her recent mood is indeed too impetuous.
Xie Liancheng watched Jiang Xiaolou up the steps until the red lantern in front of the door went out. He turned around and told Huai'an: "Go back to the mansion." When he returned to Xie's house, he went straight to Mrs. Xie's courtyard, and his first words were: "Mother, what did you say to Xiaolou?"
Mrs. Xie twisted the Buddha beads in her hand and said calmly: "If you didn't say anything, she said she was not worthy of you."
Xie Liancheng didn't speak for a long time, and looked at Mrs. Xie steadily: "No, this is not the true word of my mother. If you are really such a force, what do you teach me over the years?"
The beads in Mrs. Xie's hand can't turn. She looked at Xie Liancheng, with tears in her eyes inexplicably, and slowly said: "You are a person who stands outside the circle of right and wrong. Why are you inconsistent in your words and deeds? Between right and wrong?"
Xie Liancheng was silent and did not answer immediately.
"For so many years, you never care about everything that happens outside, just do business with one mind. Isn't that great? Why do you want to get involved in these right and wrong?!"
Xie Liancheng's warm eyes slowly turned out of regret: "My mother has always taught me not to listen, not to watch, not to ask, and to ignore. I have always lived like this. I can't do what I want, can't care about the world, just spend a day. It's a day. I used to go with the crowd but I like someone, isn't it what my mother has always expected..."
Being able to see through life and death, but not breaking through the relationship, is simply wrong!
"She won't love you at all!" Madam Xie couldn't help but blurted out, "How many girls I have seen over the years, how can I not see her personality? She only cares about herself, not others, she is close to you, Even just to use you, don’t you understand?"
Xie Liancheng's expression was extraordinarily calm: "I have no request for her, and I don't care what she thinks of me."
Mrs. Xie's heart rolled over. Her son is a gentleman who has nothing to do with the world. How is the world related to him, and how is the world to him? But he, who has always been indifferent and ruthless, helped Jiang Xiaolou and even sent Chu Han to the other side. For this reason, he did not hesitate to carefully arrange and take pains, unless it is true feelings, what else can there be...
Mrs. Xie politely said: "Stupid boy, three thousand weak, why take a scoop?"
Xie Lian didn't show the slightest anger on the face, but his voice was very firm: "Mother, life is my own. You can't make decisions for me."
Mrs. Xie's expression is even more sad: "Continuously mixing into these things will only make you expose yourself prematurely. If you involve yourself in right and wrong, don't you hate those the most? Do you want others to know your identity? "
Xie Liancheng's complexion changed slightly. If he hadn't met Jiang Xiaolou, he would only be an ordinary businessman. In addition to books and calculations, there are only lonely and unspeakable days in life. Life did not continue to be so calm. He met her and saved her more than once. This kind of thing is just a matter of effort, but he didn't know when he started paying attention to her quietly and unconsciously. He was originally unwilling to ask people who were right and wrong, and he didn't care about major events in the world, but he also started to care about Jiang Xiaolou. Safety. Relieving for her time and time again, helping her to deal with the aftermath, in fact, is just a sign that the mud feet are sinking. If you love someone, you must admit it frankly. Even if he knows that he doesn't have himself in his heart, he will treat each other wholeheartedly. Willful love, silently guarding, trying every means to protect her, comfort her, and stay with her. As for other things, what does it matter?
Mrs. Xie couldn't help but clenched her rosary: ​​"If you get stuck in mud like this again, you won't be able to look back."
Xie Liancheng looked like water: "Only a person who does what he wants can get true freedom. Whether she likes me, I don't care; whether she succeeds in revenge, I don't care. I just accompany her on this journey, this is me. It’s nothing more than her choice."
Madam Xie's eyes flushed with patience, her fingers trembled, and she stood up suddenly: "Anyway, you shouldn't let yourself be in danger. You know what kind of identity you are, how can you—"
She did not finish her words, but Xie Liancheng interrupted: "Mother, I don't want to be like a zombie again."
Madam Xie's entire face changed, and there was no sound from her throat: "What are you talking about, the walking dead?"
Xie Liancheng didn't hesitate in her voice: "Yes, before I met her, I didn't care about people, things I didn't care about, just like a walking dead, repeating, repeating, repeating it every day. Day after day Day after year, year after year, I am not even as good as the bamboo outside the courtyard. It will change with the seasons at least, but I will always be the same. For my mother, is it okay to become a walking dead?"
Mrs. Xie sat down sullenly, Huafa on the temples looked very distinct under the candlelight: "I, I just want to protect you."
Xie Liancheng stepped forward and took the initiative to fold Madam Xie's hand in her palm, with a gentle tone: "Mother, there are some things that cannot be avoided. If I am involved in helping Jiang Xiaolou, I will have no regrets. You are. The person I respect most, I hope you can support my decision."
The tears in Mrs. Xie's eyes were even worse, but she forcibly restrained her and refused to flow out. She turned her face away and refused to look at Xie Liancheng again, until the door opened again, knowing that Xie Liancheng had left, she burst into tears, and murmured: "Liancheng, Liancheng, everything is here. For your sake!"
The next day, when Jiang Xiaolou walked into the courtyard, he found Chu Han was practicing boxing there. This scene was commonplace, but this time he was hitting the ground with fallen leaves and birds flying, and even the guards were far away from him, for fear of being affected by him.
Jiang Xiaolou was puzzled, and asked, "What happened to Brother Chu today, in a bad mood?"
Xiaodie hurriedly made a silent gesture: "He didn't know where he went this morning. After he came back, he looked like he was nagging. You see, two of the sandbags were broken by him! There was a short eye just now. He went up to find him to practice boxing, and his front teeth were interrupted...It was terrible!"
After half an hour, Chu Han stopped and stood under the phoenix tree, breathing heavily.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiaolou told Xiaodie: "Go and invite Brother Chu over, I have something to ask."
Xiaodie's period passed by Ai Ai, and soon Chu Han came to him, his eyes hard to hide his hostility: "What can I do for you?"
Jiang Xiaolou observed the other person's expression and thoughtfully: "Brother Chu is in a bad mood, why should I vent my anger at the flowers and plants in my yard?"
Chu Han's face was reddish, but he lowered his head and said nothing.
Jiang Xiaolou saw that he was still covered with dew and a lot of dirt was glued to his shoes. Then he smiled and said, "From the time Brother Chu came to our restaurant, there will be a bouquet of lilies in front of Xue Ning's window every morning. The figure, must have been to the Qing Palace, didn't you see her?"
When Chu Han heard the words, he could not help clenching his fists, his fists creaked, making a particularly terrifying sound.
Jiang Xiaolou became more and more suspicious: "What happened?"
Chu Han looked away, silent for a long time. Xiaodie urged a little anxiously: "Say it quickly, isn't it because Miss Li is uncomfortable?"
Chu Han said coldly, "I won't send flowers anymore. Others think that I am a hillbilly, and they don't want me to go to the Palace of Qing Dynasty to be ashamed. Why should I be so shameless!" He said, his brows beating vaguely. , The corners of the lips were folded, and the heroic face showed an abnormal pain.
Jiang Xiaolou pondered for a moment, but he was surprised: "Did Xue Ning say something to you?"
Chu Han snorted coldly and left without looking back.
Xiaodie screamed and wondered behind him: "Miss Li calls him a country boy? How can she pierce his heart with such a good temper?"
Jiang Xiaolou thought for a while, his expression slowly became solemn: "Immediately prepare a carriage for me, I'm going to Qingwangfu to see it."
Xiaodie nodded and said, "The slave and maidservant will go right away."
The carriage was ready soon, and Jiang Xiaolou rushed to the Qing Palace without stopping, handed over the name stickers, and was invited to the Flower Hall. When a cup of tea was almost cold, Li Xuening came late.
Jiang Xiaolou raised his eyes and looked at her. Today's Xue Ning is dressed in a gorgeous dress and is thinly dressed in pink and white. It is already dazzling and stunning. When she walked in, her skirt was fluttering and her figure curled up, like a rich and auspicious cloud floating in from the door, lighting up the entire hall in an instant.
Jiang Xiaolou waited for a long time, his patience was lost, he subconsciously frowned, looked at Xue Ning and said, "Why, is there something urgent to deal with just now?"
Li Xuening just waved her hand and told the maid beside her to step back, and then said indifferently: "No, I'm just taking a lunch break."
The tone is reserved and the demeanor is noble, unlike the old Li Xuening.
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes sank: "Why do you want to say those harsh words to Brother Chu today? It's not like you are."
Li Xuening's eyes are like a quiet lake, quietly and coldly: "How much do you know about me?"
Jiang Xiaolou smiled slightly on his lips: "At least I know that the original Li Xuening would not say such cruel things to a man who really admires her."
Li Xuening sneered and said with a cold expression: "What is he? A sloppy river and lake dared to flatter me. I used to accept it because he was pitiful, but now I am in the Qing Palace, if he comes and goes. , Tarnished my reputation, what should I do?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaolou stared at Li Xuening, without speaking for a long time.
Li Xuening also looked at Jiang Xiaolou, and there was a strange expression in the crystal clear eyes, which seemed indifferent and sad. In the end, her eyes were only slightly ruthless: "From now on, I hope you don't come back. Up."
Xiaodie's face changed and she said loudly, "Miss Li, what do you mean?"
Li Xuening has no shame on her face: "Xiaolou, I know you regard me as a good friend. I also know that you helped me when I was most difficult, but all this has passed. Now I It’s a princess, so naturally there is a circle of noble ladies, and you are just a daughter of a merchant. It’s inconvenient to be seen by others as we communicate with each other!"
Jiang Xiaolou seemed to be immersed in ice water, and he couldn't find the slightest temperature. She stood up slowly, her eyes condensed: "This is what you really mean?"
Li Xuening has no emotion on a plain face, and her tone is a bit condescending: "Yes, I wanted to say these things a long time ago, but I have never had the heart. Jiang Xiaolou, now you and I are different in status, it is better not to The contacts are too close."
Xiaodie's face became extremely ugly, and she couldn't help but angrily said, "Miss Li, are you worried that we will shake everything from your past?"
The expression on Li Xuening's face did not change the slightest, and her dark eyes were relieved and calm: "Whatever you say is all your business, but I must remind you, be careful that the evil comes out of your mouth!"
