Fingertip dandy, the Republic of China Jia women want to start a career

"Lan'er, your makeup is all over, I'll get someone to wash your face with a basin of water." Li Shaowen said softly.

As he spoke, he opened the door and called in a passing little maid, asking her to fetch water.

His appearance gave Mu Qing, who was blindly looking for Zhi Lan, an immediate direction.He went quietly to the window.

The door was ajar, Mu Qing looked through the crack of the door.

Li Shaowen was half-kneeling, holding a sapphire ring in his hand, and asked Zhi Lan who was sitting on the chair in front of him: "The second time, I ask you to be my girlfriend, okay? Let me protect you and take care of you in the future." , okay?"

Mu Qing felt sour for a while, he could never say this sentence with Zhilan, he could only let it come out of Li Shaowen's mouth, at this moment he was extremely envious of Li Shaowen.

Mu Qing was most concerned about how Lan'er would answer him, his fingers couldn't help curling up into fists, it seemed that countless pores all over his body were watching Zhilan.

"I can't agree. For the rest of my life, for your own happiness, and for sister Ru." Zhilan's words are very sincere. In fact, she has thought about it. Instead of hiding and dragging, it is just the pain of three people. , why not take the opportunity to explain and cut off Li Shaowen's thoughts, "And I heard that my aunt has already chosen sister Ru, if you choose me again, what will you say?"

"What I said to you before was just a waste of words." Li Shaowen sighed, "My wife, I can only choose by myself. I have my eyes on you, Zhou Zhilan, and my heart beats for you. I don't care if there is a beautiful woman in front of me."

Jian Zhilan stared at him, his eyes flushed anxiously, "Ask you again, do you really not think about me?"

Zhilan shook her head.

"Well done, Lan'er, you can't promise him." Mu Qing caught sight of Zhilan's answer and couldn't help rushing in.

"Zhou Muqing! This is a matter between Lan'er and me. You eavesdropped on the conversation and barged in without permission?" Li Shaowen's confession was disturbed, and he said angrily.

"Lan'er's answer is already clear, why do you have to force others to make things difficult for you?" With Zhilan's answer as confidence, Mu Qing calmed down, walked into the room calmly, and as soon as she took Zhilan's hand, she was about to take her away.

"Also, the Li family's chosen wife for you is Miss Ru, don't drag Lan'er into the muddy water, besides, Lan'er has heard that Sister Ru said that she will not marry you, now you turn around and pursue Lan'er , where do you put Sister Ru? How do you let Lan'er face Sister Ru? It is impossible for all the daughters of my Zhou family to hang on your tree. I only have one sister, Lan'er, and you know our mother I left early. I promised my mother that I would take good care of her and never allow her to make mistakes in matters of marriage. You and her are not in love. If she really meets love in the future, I don't want her to regret it." Mu Qing's words were really heartfelt, and Lan's eyes were wet when he said it.

"Brother Mu Qing, what you said is interesting. I love her sincerely, and my wife is Lan'er. I dare say that she is better off marrying me than anyone else. I have the confidence and strength. In the future, when she gets married, she needs the rain, the wind, the beautiful clothes and the fine food, and I can guarantee that as long as I am in the Li family, I will never wrong her." Li Shaowen swore so firmly, he almost swore, "Besides, our two families are right, Lan It won't disgrace her if she marries me."

Li Shaowen was open and honest, turned his head and begged Zhilan who was about to leave with Muqing in a low voice, "Lan'er, do you want to think again, I know this is a major event in your life, and you should be cautious. I can wait. These words represent I have a heart. I will give you some time, Lan'er, think about it for yourself."

Zhi Lan didn't answer, she took Mu Qing's hand and didn't let go, the two were about to go out.

Just at this time, the servant girl brought water, Li Shaowen changed the conversation, and put the water on the basin stand graciously: "Forget it. I don't want to force you, Lan'er, but you still come to wash your face, there are a lot of people outside. , how do you meet people with a painted face?"

"That's right." Mu Qing directly twisted the towel and handed it to Zhilan, "Wipe it quickly, it won't be good after a while."

Seeing that Mu Qing had the upper hand, Li Shaowen was somewhat unwilling and helpless, stepped off the stage and said: "Forget it. Lan'er, there is still a meeting, I will go first." He said and left by himself.

"What else did he say to you?" Mu Qing asked after Li Shaowen left.

"He comforted me and told me the whole story of the ruby ​​incident. This is a secret in the house." Zhilan repeated it to him.

"I didn't expect him to tell you the secrets in the house without reservation, and he made it clear that he doesn't treat you as an outsider." Mu Qing analyzed, "You have to be more careful in this way, Mrs. Li must have something to do with what he said. Think about it, why Wu Niang would just take Sanniang and Mrs. Li's ruby ​​jewelry, implying what? Furthermore, why did Sanniang go crazy and die by knocking her head on a stone so coincidentally? Mrs. Li is so powerful, if She deliberately deals with you, I don't think you can handle it."

"Yes." Zhilan said, "I'm cautious, I won't take the initiative to approach Li Shaowen anyway, I made it very clear, I'm afraid he will be stubborn."

"I'll protect you." After she finished washing her face, Mu Qing took the towel and threw it into the basin, "Let's go."

"Wait for me to touch up my makeup." After washing her face, Zhilan took out her handbag and sat in front of the dressing table to touch up her makeup.

Mu Qing leaned against the dressing table with her arms folded, waiting patiently for her to paint her eyebrows and eyes. Her eyebrows and eyes are slender and rhyme; They are all deeply imprinted in his heart.It's only God's fault that he was born to be her brother.

After Zhilan finished her makeup, packed her things and still put them in her handbag, Mu Qing naturally stretched out her hand to hold her warm catkin, and led her back to the front hall.

Ever since there were movies, young people are not used to babbling scenes. Zhilan went back to the hall and looked around. There was a small dance floor where young men and women were dancing.

She was a little tired, watching Jingru and Li Shaowu dancing foxtrot quietly, the old man came and said a few words to Mu Qing, a well-known gentry in the city invited the old man to drink and chat, the old man came here especially Take Muqing with you.

"Be careful by yourself, I'll be here soon." Mu Qing urged worriedly.

"You go. I'll be careful."

Now only Zhilan was sitting on the sofa alone, even though there was lively music in his ears, but tiredness never waited for anyone, he simply leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes.

A maid came over in due time, stopped in front of Zhilan and said, "Miss Zhou, our young master has arranged a guest room for you, please come with me."

Zhilan looked around but didn't see Li Shaowen, and the place was bustling again with men and women coming and going.Although it is indeed indecent to take a nap in the hall, but she is not familiar with the Li family, so many things happened after crying in the corridor first, so she dared to follow the servant girl casually, so she refused: "Thank you, Young Master Li, for your kindness, I want Wait here for my second brother. I understand his wishes, so you can reply to him like this."

As he spoke, he turned his face to the side, not wanting to say much.

Jingru noticed Shuangling talking to Zhilan on the dance floor, and saw Shuangling retreating alone.Isn't that the maid serving Li Shaowen?She was full of doubts, didn't care about the end of the song, and hurriedly followed her, watching Shuangling go upstairs through the corridor, and she also went upstairs, hiding in the dark and peeping.Sure enough, Li Shaowen came out to listen to Shuangling's report, smiled wryly, and seemed to reply to Shuangling's words, and then seemed to say to himself: "Forget it, let Lan'er say what he wants."

Standing still as if slumped, she still had extravagant hopes when she didn't see Li Shaowen, and her heart was as cold as ice when she really heard these words. "Lan'er" is such an intimate address, as quiet as cold sweats on her hands, but she clearly knows everything about her and Li Shaowen, from the first meeting in Liyuan Pavilion, why he proposed to send them home, to The last time she asked her to keep Sister Lan, why did Zhilan stay there every time, even if Zhilan wanted to leave, she still insisted on keeping her?Some details that she never paid attention to flashed through her mind, it was true that "the dark world of mortals suddenly brightened, and the hot spring was cold."

She has never been sober as she is now. At first, he treated her like sweet honey, and then he was as cold as ice. It turned out that Zhou Zhilan was so powerful, he quietly hacked away his Brother Shaowen!She trembled with hatred, she cursed silently in her heart: Zhou Zhilan!You duplicity bitch, I missed your sisterhood in vain, there are so many young masters in Jiangcheng, who can't help, are you so hungry? !
The more she thought about it, the more she hated it, as if she was alone in a deep and dark alleyway, the exit was getting narrower and narrower, she finally managed to get out with great effort, and there was Li Shaowen standing there with a smile on his face, just about to go to him He ran to the side, and in a blink of an eye, Zhilan who came out of nowhere grabbed him lightly, and took him away as if no one was there.

Jingru looked at the vast and empty "exit", and the backs of Li Shaowen and Zhou Zhilan seemed to appear in front of her eyes. She wept silently and swore: Zhou Zhilan, the relationship between you and my sister has been severed, and I will never forgive you , never!

She only pondered these feelings in her heart. Although she was standing motionless on the porch, her mind was spinning a thousand times.

The dinner that followed was uneventful.On the contrary, Jingru was much more silent. When Zhilan talked to her, Jingru only said that she was tired.

During the banquet, Zhilan still felt that Wan Xinqiao's eyes were vaguely glancing at her, but when she looked back, there was no trace, she just thought it was her own illusion.

After the banquet, everyone said their goodbyes.Yuchun pulled Zhou Zhilan and couldn't bear to let go, Qi Shan reminded her several times before letting go.Zhilan didn't feel offended by her gaffe, and she could see from her eyes that she couldn't say a word about her worries or even a thousand words.

how so?She looked at Mu Qing, and he was also puzzled.

The other side is as quiet as watching Li Shaowen, he never looks at her, he doesn't understand that he is the only one in his eyes, everything about him seeps into her pores, if he kills himself, the blood that flows out will also condense into the words Li Shaowen Yes, she suddenly remembered that once Zhilan asked her to choose clothes, and they fell in love with the same clothes. Jingru knew that Zhilan had a wardrobe full of beautiful clothes.Thinking of this, a burst of sadness and humiliation welled up in her heart for no reason.
