"You promised me before, you said you would save the third brother." Xiu'er couldn't stop her tears from falling, "Why did you go back on your word?"
Zongzi looked at the tearful Xiu'er, full of anger, "An Xiu'er! Do you think I am greedy for life and afraid of death, so I refuse to save your third brother? Yes, I am afraid of death, and I am afraid that I will show off my courage.
, instead of rescuing your third brother, he even cost me his life. If I die, what will you do? Should I leave you alone in the world, or should I hand you over to your third brother? You two will live a happy life.
lifetime!"
"You bastard!" Xiu'er raised her hand angrily and slapped Zongzi directly, "He is my brother, why do you think about such messy things?"
Zongzi covered his face in anger. He wanted to slap her and wake up the blind woman in front of him, but he couldn't bear it.
"He is your biological brother, and your eldest brother is also your biological brother. When will you be willing to die for your eldest brother?"
"You..." Xiu'er gritted her teeth in anger, "You spit on others, but I treat them all equally."
"Yes, you treat them all equally, but you are lukewarm to me."
"I'm lukewarm to you, when will I be lukewarm to you?" Her chest hurt like pins and needles, Xiu'er looked at Zongzi coldly, feeling extremely disappointed.
"Since you took me out of the ancient tomb, you have only done two things: despising me and abandoning me. How many times have you abandoned me? I can't even compare to Zhu Qiqi, how can I dare to compare with your third brother?
?" Zongzi looked at Xiu'er angrily, pinching her face with his sharp nails, "For your third brother, you don't even hesitate to be a restless, frivolous woman. You thought I would save your third brother, so you followed me.
Together, later Zhuang Yuchen was able to save your third brother, but you did not hesitate to abandon me to join him. In your life, except for your third brother, no man has really caught your eye? "
"You're talking nonsense." Zongzi's words were too hurtful. The angry Xiu'er rushed over and hit him, "Yes, I'm ungrateful, I'm watery, I could have gotten married to Zhuang Yuchen, but you made me like this."
Yes, why are you doing this to me..." She gave him everything she could give him, but he turned his face and refused to recognize anyone.
Zongzi pushed her away coldly, and Xiuer's frail body hit the bed hard, "Don't even think about it. I won't let any man touch you except me."
Xiu'er fell on the bed, crying and angry Zongzi, reaching out to pull her clothes, "Is your body also reserved for your third brother? You want to keep your body for him, but I won't let you do it..."
"Ah..." Xiu'er exclaimed, beating the rice dumplings desperately, "You are not a human!"
"I'm not a human to begin with!" Zongzi rushed over, held down her struggling hands and feet, and reached in. "You don't let me touch it, but I still have to touch it!"
Xiu'er opened her mouth to bite him, and the salty blood rushed into her mouth, "Beast!"
The corner of Zongzi's mouth was bitten by Xiu'er. He covered his mouth angrily, wishing to strangle her to death.
The disheveled Xiu'er shrank into the corner in panic, pulled the quilt and hugged her tightly. Zongzi couldn't stop trembling as he looked at her frightened look, and his anger gradually disappeared.
He stood up and left disappointed
As soon as Zongzi left, Xiuer collapsed on the bed, buried in the quilt and cried bitterly. Why is this happening? Everything is obviously fine, why is it suddenly like this? She has regarded him as her heaven and her earth, why should he treat him like this?
she!
After crying all night, Xiu'er's hands and feet were twitching with cold body. She sat in a daze at dawn and the rice dumplings never came back. She seemed to have disappeared.
It was already bright outside the window, Xiu'er dragged her leaden legs and struggled to get up from the bed. She sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at the haggard woman with swollen eyes in the mirror. When did she become so desolate and sad?
She is now like a pet, kept in a cage by Zongzi. When the owner is happy, he teases her a few times and feeds her some delicious food, so she thinks she is the owner's treasure. If the owner is unhappy, she will starve to death.
In a cage…
Who is the strange person in the mirror?
Is that pet that he captured and kept as his pet, never to be free for life, really her?
What should she do now? The master has disappeared. Will she have to fend for herself?
After not sleeping all night and having a splitting headache, Xiu'er managed to gather herself up, wash up, change her clothes, and walk to the courtyard opposite.
The red figure was sitting in front of the bronze mirror. Xiu'er walked over gently. Thinking of her incident, she always felt a twinge of guilt in her heart. Yesterday, she wanted to discuss with Zongzi to let him give Mei Ying'er a way out.
But who would have thought that there would actually be a quarrel?
Now, she is a person who doesn’t know what will happen tomorrow. How can she help Mei Ying’er?
"Meiying'er, are you feeling better?" Xiu'er stood behind her. She thought of some words of comfort before, but when she stood in front of her, she couldn't say anything. Now, like her, she is a person trapped in love.
Hearing Xiu'er's voice, Mei Ying'er put down the comb in her hand and turned around slowly...
"Ah..." Xiu'er screamed, covering her mouth and taking a few steps back. She looked at Mei Ying'er's left face in horror, and saw a terrifying claw mark, which was an inch long, lying across Mei Ying'er's face.
There is a ferocious expression on the pretty face that is as beautiful as flowers and jade.
What happened? You were fine last night, so why did you suddenly get an extra scar today?
"Is it ugly?" Meiying'er touched her left cheek and smiled desolately.
"How could this happen?" Xiu'er walked forward and looked at Mei Ying'er's face anxiously. Throughout the ages, women have cared most about their own faces. Now that Mei Ying'er's face has been disfigured, what should she do?
"Chu Xunong," Mei Ying'er said lightly.
"Him?" Xiu'er opened her mouth in astonishment, "Why!" He had already held Mei Ying'er's life in his hands and forced her to serve the young emperor. It was cruel. Now he has ruined her appearance. It was too cruel.
It's chilling
"He said I provoked a relationship between you two, so he cut a scar on my face as punishment."
Xiu'er was startled, and she said after a while: "He is too narrow-minded. What should we do now? Can this scar be removed?" She is a monster, and it shouldn't be difficult to change her skin.
"It's useless." Mei Ying'er shook her head, "Chu Xun's magic power is great, this scar will stay with me for the rest of my life."
Xiu'er lowered her head guiltily, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to hurt you."
"It's nothing." Meiying'er touched her left cheek, "Anyway, I'm tired of this face. No matter how beautiful it is, he can't see it."
He? Xiu'er felt lost for a while. Women always seem to live for men.
Will the current Mei Ying'er be her future self? Sadness welled up in her heart, and Xiu'er's heart couldn't help but feel desolate. If she hadn't acted out of spite last night, Mei Ying'er would not have been affected.
She believed everything Zongzi said, so she felt confident in front of him and ended up like this.
Walking out of the courtyard, Xiu'er sat in the stone pavilion on the top of the mountain. She and Zongzi had already had a disagreement. How should they go on? Will she die in the valley, or would she anger Zongzi and let him kill her?
This sitting lasted a whole day, and the blood-like sunset shone on the mountains, adding to the poignant beauty. With her tired body, she returned to the attic.
There were some fresh rice noodles and vegetables in the kitchen. It seemed that Zongzi had been prepared for her at some point. Xiuer made some dumplings and then found a jar of wine in the corner of the kitchen, so she warmed up a pot.
Ordinary dumplings, a pot of wine, a candle, a shadow, Xiu'er held the chopsticks, eating and tears fell down
A sudden sigh sounded in my ears, and a shadow appeared out of nowhere under the candlelight. The words "Xiu'er" contained too much helplessness, love, hate and reluctance.
Xiu'er quietly wiped her tears, lowered her head and didn't look at his rice dumplings. She sat down at the table next to her and reached out to take the chopsticks in her hand. Unexpectedly, Xiu'er wouldn't let go. He couldn't help but exert more force and embroidered the chopsticks by himself.
He grabbed it from his hand, picked up a dumpling and put it in his mouth
He closed his eyes and felt the taste of the dumplings in his mouth, with endless aftertaste. "The ones made by Xiu'er are still so delicious. Make them for me in the future."
Xiu'er lowered her head and said nothing. Zongzi picked up a dumpling with a smile on her face and put it to her lips. Unexpectedly, Xiu'er didn't open her mouth, so he had to put it in his mouth. He picked up the wine pot with the other hand and pointed it at the corner of the pot.
Drink up
Xiu'er couldn't stand his rudeness, so she stood up, got him a cup, put it on the table, turned around and didn't even bother to look at him.
Zongzi was in a good mood and finished a plate of dumplings. He drank half a bottle of wine and rubbed her shoulder with his hand, "Xiu'er, serve me some more, I'm hungry."
Xiu'er picked up the plate, went to the stove and filled it with another plate, and said in a low voice: "Did you secretly eat the dumplings I made before?" On the night of August 15th, she thought a cat had entered the room.
Eaten secretly
"The Xiu'er is so delicious, I couldn't help but eat a little." Zongzi smiled, moved his chopsticks to pick one for her, and said in a slow voice: "Eat quickly, I'll finish them all in a while."
Xiu'er looked at him depressedly and opened her mouth to eat.
He poured wine and handed a glass to Xiu'er. He hesitated for a long time and drank it all in one gulp.
Zongzi took advantage of the situation and held her hand, "Xiu'er, it was my fault last night, can you please stop being angry? It's rare for us to be together, so don't make yourself unhappy with others over irrelevant things, okay?"
Apologizing doesn’t mean you did something wrong, but it means you don’t want to lose
"When I finish handling the matters at hand, I will go find the female slayer and rescue your third brother."
Xiu'er covered his mouth and said with wet eyes: "When you have a good chance of winning, you can find a female slave. I want to save the third brother, but I also want you to live." If she hadn't been so angry last night, she wouldn't have said that.
Serious words
After a quarrel, he learned tolerance, restraint and tolerance, and she learned to understand, but mostly to hide...
