Feng Shaojun did not miss Shen You's subtle movements. He was secretly amused and opened his black eyes innocently: "Cousin You, why are you touching your sleeves? Why don't you say anything?"
Thinking of the one thousand taels of silver notes that had been spent, Shen You felt inexplicably short of breath and felt guilty, and his tone was much gentler than usual: "I'm stupid and don't like what I say. I don't know what to say."
Yo!
Does the sun rise in the west?
The fourth brother actually knows how to talk to please the girl’s family?!
Shen Jia's eyes widened and she looked at Shen You in surprise.
Shen You stared back expressionlessly.
It's not all you! If you hadn't caused the trouble, why would I have used five hundred taels to "apologize" to that Feng San'er? As a result, I can hardly stand straight when I see Shaojun's cousin!
The two brothers thought they had "communicated" with their eyes without revealing any trace.
Feng Shaojun almost burst into laughter secretly.
Cui Yuanhan didn't feel anything at all.
In his opinion, Shaojun's cousin is beautiful, smart, sweet, and has a generous dowry. As long as Shen You is not blind, it is impossible to remain indifferent.
It’s all right to please and be attentive!
There are no elders around, so there is no need to pay attention to so many customs and rules. Cui Yuanhan had a thought in his mind, and he opened his mouth and said with a smile: "There is no point in staying in the inner hall, let's go to the garden."
Shen Jia nodded happily.
Shen You subconsciously looked at Feng Shaojun, and saw Shaojun's cousin coming over with a smile on her face, stretching out her slender fingers to tug at his sleeves.
Normally, Shen You would have avoided it.
This time, for some reason, he didn't even move.
Feng Shaojun's beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, he smiled brightly, and pulled Cousin You's sleeves out of the inner hall.
Cui Yuanhan was very considerate and deliberately accelerated his pace. Shen Jia was so carefree that he didn't feel anything was wrong at all. He and Cui Yuanhan were walking and joking, and soon Shen You and Feng Shaojun were left behind.
"Cousin You, it's hard for you to practice in Prince Yan's Mansion, isn't it?"
"It's not hard."
"Can I eat enough every day?"
"able."
"Are there many rules in Prince Yan's Mansion?"
"not much."
Shen You doesn't like to talk, and usually can't produce a few words in a day. Today, he answers every question. Even though he can only answer one or two words, it's really not easy for him.
Feng Shaojun suppressed his laughter and deliberately teased him: "We haven't seen each other for so many days, and I have been thinking about Cousin You. Does Cousin You miss me?"
Shen You suddenly stopped.
Feng Shaojun followed suit and stopped, looking at Shen You with a little shyness and expectation in his dark eyes.
A trace of complicated emotions flashed across Shen You's eyes, and he whispered after a while: "Cousin Shaojun, you asked me to pretend to be your fiancé that day, and I agreed to your request."
"Princess Qin wants to forcefully marry you as her daughter-in-law. I shamelessly begged His Highness Prince Yan and Princess Yan to prevent a disaster for you."
"It's settled between you and me."
"I won't hide it from you. I have no plans to marry, so you..."
Stop looking at me with such admiration.
I will not get married, nor will I marry you.
The last two sentences are really difficult to say to a delicate girl. Even if Shen You's heart is as solid as a rock, it is difficult for him to say it. He can only express his feelings with his eyes.
Shaojun's cousin was not surprised at all, nor was she embarrassed or sad about being rejected. She smiled and said: "I have known these things for a long time! Cousin You, don't worry, after three years, you and I will dissolve our engagement. I will not pester you." I won’t let you go.”
Shen You secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and heard Shaojun's cousin continue: "Also, I gave you the money in my wallet. You can use it however you want. Don't feel guilty or guilty."
Shen You: "..."
For the first time in his life, Shen You experienced the feeling of being shameless.
Those considerate black eyes looked at him with a smile, as if they understood all his embarrassment: "Isn't Cousin You not enough? I still have..."
"That's enough!" Shen You blurted out without thinking: "There are four thousand taels left!"
Only after saying this did I realize that I had made a mistake.
However, it is difficult to recover the water that is poured out. It is impossible to treat the words that are spoken as if they have not been said.
Fortunately, Shaojun's cousin didn't ask where the thousand taels went. She pursed her lips and smiled: "It's enough. If it's not enough, just tell me, Cousin You. I have a lot more there!"
Shen Jia's words suddenly came to Shen You's mind: Shaojun's cousin is really a rich man!
Shen You remained silent, and Feng Shaojun did not urge him to open his mouth. He glanced around and suddenly said with a smile: "Cousin You, look over there!"
What's going on over there?
Shen You followed Feng Shaojun's gaze and saw a tree not far away, with a flower blooming on the treetop. The stamens were golden and the petals were light pink, trembling in the spring breeze.
"That flower is so beautiful." Shaojun's cousin said with a look of longing and love: "It would be great if I could pick it off. I just have a hairpin in my hair."
Shen You was silent for a moment, strode over, put some force on his feet, climbed up the tree, and reached out to pick the flowers.
The young man has a strong figure and smooth movements, which is pleasing to the eye.
Feng Shaojun pursed his lips and smiled, tilting his head slightly.
Shen You had no choice but to tie the flower hairpin in her hair.
I don't know whether it is the fragrance of flowers or the body fragrance of a girl, but it floats faintly into my nose.
In fact, he doesn't like fragrances, such as powder, sandalwood, agarwood, etc. He doesn't want to see them at all. The quiet fragrance at this time is refreshing and not annoying at all.
"Cousin You," Shaojun's cousin said with a flowery smile, a smile in her eyes, and a soft and charming voice, "Thank you."
Shen You's heart beat suddenly faster, and he took two steps back calmly: "It's a big help, no need to say thank you."
…
Shen You, who had keen ears and sharp eyes, did not realize that Cui Yuanhan and Shen Jia were watching the excitement not far away.
"I never expected that my fourth brother would pick flowers to please the girl's family." Shen Jia sighed: "He even thoughtfully tied flowers for Shaojun's cousin."
He usually keeps quiet, but he turns out to be so boring.
Cui Yuanhan saw this and was quite satisfied. He intentionally or unintentionally used Shen Jia's words: "Cousin You, have you ever paid attention to other girls?"
Shen Jia smiled and said: "Forget about girls, he is not happy even if a female mosquito flies in front of him."
Cui Yuanhan was amused: "This is too exaggerated!"
Pity flashed in Shen Jia's eyes, and her voice lowered a little: "It's not that I like gossiping behind people's backs, my former aunt is really cruel. She just abandoned my fourth brother and remarried to the Qiu family."
"When my fourth brother was young, he was white, fat, cute and lovable. Since he became sensible at the age of five or six, he has become more withdrawn and withdrawn day by day and doesn't like to talk."
"We all feel sorry for our fourth brother and are good to him. But no one can replace his mother."
"I hope that my fourth brother will have a good marriage and marry a good wife in the future, and I will treat him wholeheartedly."
