Back at Qiuye Yard, Xiaojiu's eyes were half-squinted, and his whole body was sore and weak. I originally wanted to put him on the bed. But Zhe said that this little thing must be raised low, so he could only put it on the ground.
"Is it dying?" I looked at it lying on the ground, dying. It seemed like it was really going to die.
"That's good." Huangfu Zhe muttered depressedly.
"Fourth Miss, Your Majesty. Yasu wants to see you." When they came back and found out that Fourth Miss already knew everything, they knew that everything had to be done according to the rules. They couldn't be as casual as before, at least not when the Prince was around.
"Come in."
"Wow haha, here comes my red bean cake. I have been eating greasy barbecue all day, and I really miss these pastries." My eyes lit up when I saw the plates of pastries brought in by Yasu.
But it seemed that Xiaojiu's eyes were brighter than mine, and with a flash of white light, there were two less dishes of pastries on the table. He was seen holding one plate in his paws, holding another in his mouth, and looking at the two dishes on the table.
Disk. I immediately stepped forward to protect him.
"Is it, is it coming back to life?" I pointed at Xiao Jiu who was devouring the food and asked. Why didn't he run away when he first tried to run away? Now he grabs my things so quickly. Are these two butterflies of cakes more important than his life?
.
"Haha, I didn't expect this little thing to recover so quickly. It is indeed a spiritual creature." Zhe said after taking a sip of tea.
"Ah! My red bean cake. You said which dish you picked was not good, why did you choose this one? You should really let them make you into a cloak." I glared at Xiaojiu, I was really asking for trouble, I was asking for trouble.
A little thing came back to grab food from me.
"Haha. Do you regret it?" Zhe said with a look of joy on his face. Then he told Yasu to get two more plates.
"Xiao Jiu is so fast, why doesn't he run away?" I asked while eating.
"I'm afraid you are the only one in the world who will protect it and not take any chances with it. If someone finds you out, you will be running away every day, so it would be better to fight for food with you here." Zhe said while wiping the corners of my mouth.
"That's right." In modern times, this Mi Chong is the ideal life of many people. Xiao Jiu is quite prophetic. I have forgotten how I started my business. Marketing! How can there be such a thing in this world?
Free lunch. See how I pack your little thing.
I held Xiaojiu in my arms at night and was surprised that it didn't shed its hair. So I tried to pull out two hairs, but it hurt a lot. So I threatened it, saying that if you don't listen to me, I will pull out all your hair.
.
It is very soft, soft and warm. I just need a pillow, so this is it.
After a few days, I finally got to know what the real best rice bugs are. Xiaojiu went to sleep after eating and ate after sleeping. The only time he was awake was with half-squinted eyes and yawning from time to time. Apart from eating, he didn't do anything.
I saw it coming out of its little bed. Everyone who saw it would only give it one word - lazy.
I was wondering if I should change its name to Aqin Alau Afen or something to encourage it.
But, there is a mountain as high as a mountain, and Li Ye is its nemesis. Every time I see Li Ye making Xiao Jiu startled and winking, I can’t help laughing.
The third sister also came here often, and she also liked this little thing very much. She wanted to take it back and play with it for two days many times, but Xiaojiu always avoided it. With Xiaojiu's skill, it didn't want to go. Except for Huangfu Zhe, others also wanted to go.
There's really nothing you can do about it.
However, Huangfu Zhe's attitude towards the third sister makes me feel strange. He is very polite. Everyone can see the admiration in the third sister's loving eyes. I really don't understand what he thinks. Girls
If you don’t hide it, why is he so polite?
Zhe comes here every day, and I can see that he is very tired. It seems that being a prince is really not that easy, especially when you have to be a prince that everyone respects. He said that he likes my piano and my music, and I always play something soothing for him.
He sings some soft songs to his tune. Occasionally, he plays pranks and scares him.
As for the questions he raised in the woods, I always avoided mentioning them, and he didn't rush to ask me for answers. I thought about everything and waited until I found my mother and second brother before making a decision. Before I made a decision,
I always treat Huangfu Zhe as if I were far away from him.
In fact, I am afraid, afraid that I will never get out if I get trapped. He is a prince, and there are so many women around him, but what about me? I just want to find someone who can only look at me in his eyes and only have me in his heart.
Ordinary people. If I really fall into it, it will only end miserably.
****
Unknowingly, it has been autumn for a while. The third sister said that the chrysanthemums in Qiushi Courtyard were in bloom and she asked me to go with them to enjoy the chrysanthemums today. I thought that Liye had returned to Nalan Mansion and would not be able to come in the past few days.
Zhe was also busy with his own affairs. But Xiaojiu, let alone Xiaojiu, kept eating and sleeping even though he had put on weight a few times. I felt really unhappy when I saw it, so I kicked its round butt.
"It's only been a few days since I ate again. Looking at your belly, people who don't know would think you're pregnant." I really doubt that if someone catches it again, it won't be able to run away. It really wants to
He opened it, stepped aside, and continued to chew fiercely. He was defeated by it. Before leaving, he specifically told Yasu to put away the food so that Xiaojiu wouldn't be able to eat it all.
When I came to Qiushiyuan, the fragrance of chrysanthemums overflowed. The colorful petals were curled out from the stamens, layer upon layer. The petals were purple-red near the core, orange-red in the middle, and the edges gradually transitioned into
The yellow color slowly unfolds and finally turns into a large flower disk.
Chrysanthemums are not as graceful and luxurious as peonies, nor are they as colorful as roses. They have a unique beauty, proud, clear and elegant.
When I was tired from walking, I went to the pavilion to sit and rest for a while, sipping chrysanthemum tea and enjoying it very much.
"Fourth sister, do you like this chrysanthemum tea?" Third sister picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Well, the color of the water is light green, the taste is slightly sweet and mellow, with a slight aroma, and it is good for the body and mind. It is indeed a good tea." I looked at the chrysanthemum tea in the cup and said, I didn't expect that the tea art of the ancients should not be underestimated.
"If you like it, sister can bring some." Then she turned around and told the maid beside her: "Hailan, take Miss Fourth's maid to pick out some good chrysanthemum tea. Remember to choose carefully."
"Then thank you, sister." I didn't say any polite words and just thanked her directly. After Hailan and Yasu walked away,
"Dead sister, do you still remember what happened six years ago when you were grabbing things here and I fell into the lake?" The third sister looked at the lake under the pavilion.
"It was Shi'er who was not sensible at that time and hurt my sister. Fortunately, everything happened later, otherwise Shi'er would have been really upset." At that time, it was said that "I" was really a bit unruly. Now I should apologize to her.
"No, it's something. Do you know why dad was so harsh on you at that time?"
"It's all in the past, just don't mention it."
"Because I almost lost my life, and when I saved my life, I found that I injured my foot. I originally wanted to be an outstanding dancer like my eldest sister. But after that time, I can no longer dance.
." Although my mother and I also paid a lot at that time, the third sister's eyes were full of loss, which made me blame myself even more. "Do you know why Qi Qingyun is not destined to be with me? He said that he likes to dance.
It is a beautiful enjoyment to look at that woman’s graceful figure.”
"Third sister, I really didn't know it would be like this, I..."
The third sister suddenly stood up and knelt in front of me, which shocked me. I quickly stepped forward to help her. "Third sister, what are you doing?"
"Fourth sister, if you really feel sorry for Third Sister, just promise Third Sister something, okay?" She held my hand, opened her eyes wide, and said seriously.
"Just get up and say whatever you want. The ground is cold."
"Fourth sister, I beg you to leave Prince Tianzhe's Mansion and Prince Tianzhe." She continued to kneel and begged. Although she was pleading, her tone was full of determination but helplessness.
"Third Sister, you..." I have been avoiding this matter all this time.
"Fourth sister, third sister missed Leng Qingyun, and was rejected by Murong Chong in front of all the civil and military officials. Third sister's life was miserable, but when third sister came here, she really fell in love with the prince, and his every move made her...
I am worried. We used to get along very well, but when you came, the prince came once.
He has never been here since then, and has never listened to me playing the piano again. He went to your place and ignored me. Do you know the pain of me staying alone in an empty room every day?" As she said this, the third sister's eyes were full of tears.
The tears made me feel so guilty. Oh my god, it turned out that I had caused her so much harm intentionally or unintentionally.
"Your Majesty is a seven-foot-tall man. It's natural to meet someone as immortal as Fourth Sister. It's like Third Sister coming here for the first time. But when Third Sister falls in love, she can't help herself. She can only love.
It's so painful, so painful. The third sister has selfish motives for letting you go, but the fourth sister, you are still young, and the elder sister doesn't want to
I want you to suffer like this. Didn't you say before that you should find a man who is devoted to you, but the prince is in the royal family, how can he be devoted to you? Fourth sister, with your beauty,
It is not difficult to find a man outside who will treat you wholeheartedly. Why do you want to stay in this palace?"
Looking at the sobbing third sister in front of me, I was silent, with tears streaming down my face. I still have to face what I have to face, and I can't escape it. Listening to the third sister's words, my heart was as sharp as a knife. The third sister was already his.
.And does he really love me? He is still attracted by my freshness. As time goes by, he will be thrown aside. But the third sister fell in love with me, didn’t I? Can I really leave him? That one year ago I
There is someone who cares about you.
"Third sister is about to pass the flowery years, and besides, I am already the prince's. Please go, fourth sister. Third sister will repay you in the next life by doing things like cows and horses." Seeing that I didn't answer, third sister held on tightly.
My arm ached, and her knuckles had already turned white.
"Third sister, I can leave... but the prince will not let me leave easily." I am really conflicted... No matter who I was before, I am my only sister now. Can I hurt her? But
Huangfu Zhe also made it clear that he would keep me here and would not let me go.
"Fourth sister, you don't know how painful it is to love someone who doesn't care about you. If this goes on, third sister, third sister, it would be better to die." After saying that, he threw himself towards the pavilion railing, with the deep view below.
deep lake.
"Okay, Third Sister, I promise you." I quickly pulled her back and chewed.
Her words brought back my sense. How could I not know how painful it is to love someone who doesn’t care about you. Now I have to hurt my loved ones and gamble on uncertain feelings. I understand that I can’t afford to lose. Really
Can't afford to lose.
"Fourth sister, tell the truth, don't lie to third sister." Third sister stopped sobbing, and there was unconcealable joy in her eyes.
"Yes, I will leave him." I said these words with difficulty. "But I need time to prepare well and look for opportunities." Otherwise, with his domineering personality, he probably won't make it the first time and will be captured.
Even if you don't get strangled to death by him, you will never be able to run away again.
"Fourth sister, thank you. If you need anything, just tell third sister, and third sister will definitely do it for you. Third sister will find second brother soon, and you can go together then." I helped her up, and she
Speaking of.
"Yes." I sat back and drank tea in silence. The third sister was pouring the green chrysanthemum tea very carefully. Only then did I realize that there was no one else here, and it seemed so deserted. Before the cup of tea was finished, Yasu
After returning from getting tea with Hailan, I said goodbye and left Qiushiyuan.
