After sitting in the room for a long time, until the candles were halfway through and the sun set, Miss Chu still didn't wait for Xiao Han.
Raising her head and looking at the moon rising outside the window, Miss Chu in the room finally released her grip on the dagger. At this moment, a deep feeling of powerlessness and loneliness suddenly hit her heart!
She is the princess of the Qin family! She is also the eldest lady of the Ning family! Although her surname is not Ning, but Chu!
However, in front of that tall figure like a mountain, everyone selectively forgot this "little thing" and still regarded her as the moon in the sky, and everyone complimented her wholeheartedly.
However, just because others don't mention it, it doesn't mean that Miss Chu doesn't think about it herself.
I remember that when she was very young, she went to ask her adoptive father: Why did she call him father, but couldn't have the same surname as Ning Lifang and Ning Lixin? She didn't want to be surnamed Chu.
I want my last name to be Ning!
However, the adoptive father at that time did not answer her question, he just looked at her for a long time, finally sighed longly, turned and left without saying a word!
This seems to be the only time in Miss Chu's memory that her adoptive father looked helpless and sad in front of her!
So from then on, she never dared to mention this issue again.
Later, when time passed slowly and she grew up, she vaguely learned from the aunts in the back house:
She is the daughter of a sibling of her adoptive father! Unfortunately, her parents passed away not long after she was born, so her adoptive father took her in and raised her.
The reason why she has not been asked to change her surname is because she wants her to find a live-in husband so that she can continue the legacy of the Chu family brothers!
"Incense? No!"
Suddenly, Miss Chu was so excited when she recalled this place that she woke up from her memories!
"No, no! Since my adoptive father's original wish was for me to continue the Chu family's legacy, then the engagement with the Lin family..."
Standing up suddenly, Miss Chu looked at the red candle with only a small piece of red candle left on the table in surprise!
At this moment, she suddenly thought of a lot, including the marriage contract and the slightly mottled signature of her adoptive father Ning Changzhen on the marriage contract!
"That engagement contract is fake!"
Her lips trembled, Miss Chu murmured something, and then she fell weakly on the chair!
Until then, she finally figured it all out!
Why is the marriage certificate that Ning Lifang took out so old?
Why did he only dare to wave it in front of him for a few moments, and then quickly change the topic and talk about the so-called instructions given by his father before his death?
The adoptive father wants to use marriage so that the Qin government can still stand up after his death?
This reason may seem very ordinary, but those who really know Ning Changzhen will know that this mountain-like man would never, nor would he bother to maintain a mansion in this way, even if that mansion is his home!
They say caring leads to chaos!
This sentence is absolutely correct! Because even Miss Chu, who is naturally smart, was completely confused after facing a series of things such as the indifference of the Ning family, the pressing pressure of the Lin family, and the indifference of the Feng family. Finally, she finally
Fooled by such a clumsy scam!
"Ning Li Fang!"
After murmuring the name, Miss Chu smiled miserably!
Fortunately, she has been running around every day in order to revitalize the Qin government in recent years, never missing an opportunity that is beneficial to her and the Qin government!
Fortunately, she thought that the Lin family could really help the Ning family, and was even prepared to commit herself to marrying!
Fortunately, for the sake of the Qin government, even her savior Liu Hongji wanted to scheme against her!
But until now, she realized that her efforts, in the eyes of others, might just be so-called stupidity! They even used this stupidity to sell her to others, just for the pitiful betrothal gift and the original price.
property that belongs to her.
"It turns out that I am the stupidest one. I was sold and still helping count the money!"
Slowly exhaling a breath, just when Miss Chu looked at the dagger on the table and thought about getting over it, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the quiet courtyard outside.
"I asked you how to do things. If you don't bring people to the side hall, why bring them to this corner?"
"Ahem, isn't it convenient and easy to do things here..."
"Easy to do? What to do? What do you mean by this? Hey, forget it! You can go find Lao Liu later and ask him to come with you! We are all old acquaintances after all."
"Ah?! Call him? You three? How can you still do this?"
"Hey! I wonder if you have been in Guangzhou for a long time and your brain has been soaked in the sea water? Why are you so confused in what you say?"
"Uh... it's Xiaguan's fault, ouch! No, Xiaguan suddenly has a splitting headache and needs to go to the latrine! The girl is in the front room. Mr. Marquis, you can go by yourself. Xiaguan excuses himself first..."
Staring dumbfoundedly at the fleeing official from the Shipping Department in the darkness, Xiao Han twitched the corners of his mouth twice and wondered, are all the officials in Guangzhou so unique? If this was placed in Chang'an, he would probably be the first to take office on the second day.
Do you have to roll up your bed and get out of here?
"Inexplicable, crazy!"
Cursing secretly, Xiao Han, who was a little confused, just decided to go see this Miss Chu by himself. His feet suddenly felt weak, and it felt like he had stepped on a slippery rope.
"What the hell? Why is there a rope on such a smooth road?" Feeling something strange under his feet, Xiao Han subconsciously lowered his head and looked at it. Looking at the moon that had just risen above his head, he saw a big snake as thick as a child's arm and more than three feet long.
He stepped on his head and pinned him under his feet. The long snake body was still twisting on the ground, and it would hit his calf from time to time.
"Hold the grass, snake...snake...snake..."
The moment he saw the "rope" clearly! Poor Xiao Han felt that his blood had gone cold! He was trembling for a long time, but his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground!
Xiao Han is afraid of snakes! Always has been!
Even in his previous life, he was full of disgust and fear towards these evil creatures with scales on their bodies and no legs!
Normally, let alone bumping into him, just thinking about it would give him goosebumps! Not to mention, now this evil creature was twisting and rolling at his feet!
"Ouch~Help!"
Finally, with a tragic scream, a black shadow flew past like lightning in the path of the back garden, and crashed straight into Miss Chu's room!
This set of movements can probably only be described as quiet as a virgin and as active as a mad rabbit.
"Help? Tsk tsk, Lord Marquis is indeed from Chang'an, and his life is pretty good!"
In the front yard, the clerk from the Municipal Shipping Department, who just said he had a splitting headache, heard the screams coming from the backyard. He couldn't help but grinned and admired from the bottom of his heart. Look, people in big cities are different!
