Wonderful Puppet

The next day's family banquet, of course, did not have hot pot.

Zhen Miaoqiang sat down at the female family's table with energy, and the old lady asked several questions with concern.

Tian took Zhen Miao's hand and said to the old lady: "Old lady, it's not the daughter-in-law who said, no matter how busy Dalang's child is, this is another family feast, and Dalang's wife is sick, so she should come back to see her. How about I send the steward to call again?"

Zhen Miao withdrew her hand by stroking her temples, and said with a faint smile, "Thank you, Second Aunt, for thinking about it. But Da Lang has just been promoted, so it's business matters. Besides, I'm just a little uncomfortable, so it doesn't matter."

As he spoke, he glanced at the men's table and said, "Second Uncle isn't here either, it seems that the yamen is busy recently."

Tian Shi choked on these words and stuffed his chest with a breath.

Master Luo Er, a small official of Honghe Temple, is neither a close minister of the emperor like Da Lang, nor a guard in the outskirts of the city like Uncle Fourth, what a busy fart!

These words are obviously to blame someone, but the other party has an innocent face, so he can't be serious.

The old lady frowned as expected: "It's normal for Dalang to be busy these days, why is the second child too busy to come back for dinner? Isn't today Xiumu?"

Tian's mouth opened, and then he said in embarrassment: "Perhaps the New Year is approaching, and some people from the territory of the feudal kingdom have come to Beijing one after another. The daughter-in-law didn't ask much about the outside affairs."

The old lady raised her eyebrows and didn't ask any more questions.

Feeling offended, Tian rolled her eyes and landed on Zhen Miao's high collar, and smiled meaningfully: "My nephew's daughter-in-law's dress has a unique style, and the color suits you well. Where did you make it?" , I will also make a body for Yuan Niang when I come back."

Zhen Miao was wearing a high collar light rose red double-breasted jacket today.

For wealthy families in the capital, it is not fashionable for female relatives to wear high-necked clothes in winter. If they go out, they will wear a snow fox scarf, which is decent and generous. When they enter a house with earth dragons and braziers, they will not feel bored once they take off the scarf.

But Zhen Miao is young and good looking.Although it is not a fashionable style, the collar button is made into a delicate plum blossom shape and coiled up to the neck, not revealing even a little of the fair neck, but it does not have a romantic taste.

Therefore, others didn't understand what Tian said, but Zhen Miao did.His eyes flickered slightly.

In the past, she might not have thought about it deeply, but today she found this high-necked dress out of the box to see people, it was clearly to cover up the bruises on her neck, and considering that the doctor at the house who took the pulse of Ping An never mentioned her There is something about Gong Han, even if it is a fool.I also know that Tian's may not be so innocent, so I deliberately embarrass her.

Zhen Miao has an advantage.She never holds grudges, because if she has grudges, she usually avenges them on the spot.

Since Mrs. Tian was talking about her daughter, she was not polite, she pursed her lips and smiled: "It was also before leaving the cabinet, my mother took me to Xiulifang to buy it, and it's time for my eldest sister to buy it."

After some words, Tian's expression changed.Luo Zhiya froze even more, almost unable to hold the tea gu in her hand.

Zhen Miao directly blocked Luo Zhiya's venomous gaze.Picking up the tea gu, she lowered her eyes to drink tea, her drooping eyelashes were as thick as a small fan, covering the sudden water vapor.

That bastard, do you know how much embarrassment you have left for yourself?

Pretty maids in silver and red armor filed in and set the dishes one by one.

The old lady glanced at everyone and said, "Okay, let's eat."

When we really started to eat, and it was a family banquet, we still have to pay attention to the rules of not talking when eating or sleeping. For a while, we only heard the slight sound of dishes colliding.

The curtain at the entrance of the dining room was suddenly raised, and Luo Tianxuan walked in with bursts of cold air.

The first glance fell on Zhen Miao's face, but she immediately moved away with just a slight touch, pleading guilty: "Grandmother, grandson is late."

The old lady looked at her eldest grandson carefully, and saw that his eyes were bloodshot, his clothes were still a little wrinkled, and even the beard on his chin was not shaved clean. I'm busy with business, what are you doing when you come back?"

Luo Tianxuan couldn't help but glanced at Zhen Miao again, and said, "No matter how busy you are, you still have to have dinner with grandma."

The old lady was overjoyed, and she still remembered joking: "This brat is still so good at coaxing people when he is old, I think he is thinking about his wife?"

Luo Tianxuan didn't even look at Zhen Miao, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, after dinner, my grandson will go back to the government office."

The old lady glanced at Zhen Miao who was sitting with her back straight, frowned and said, "Since we're all back, let's stay at home overnight, we can't finish things."

Luo Tianxuan didn't know whether he was embarrassed or relieved, he nodded after a while, and went to the next table to eat.

Zhen Miao pinched the chopsticks, thinking to herself that the rice in the bowl was that bastard, poked it hard, took a big mouthful, swallowed it together with the suffocation, and unknowingly ate a bowl of rice.

When the bowl bottomed out, I suddenly realized that I was only thinking about getting angry and accidentally ate too fast.

Looking up, the food in other people's bowls was still sharp, and he felt a little sluggish for a moment.

Luo Tianzheng, who had been quietly glancing at her from the corner of his eye, couldn't help curling up the corner of his mouth when he saw this, and then his heart began to feel stuffy again.

He must be a demon, obviously her every move made him so happy, but this joy caused him great panic and resentment, as if he was facing an extremely beautiful dream, if he sinks his heart into it, maybe, It will be worse than the previous life.

After the meal was tasteless, everyone went back to their respective rooms.

On a dark morning in winter, Zhen Miao walked side by side with Luo Tianzheng, carrying a wind lantern.

The lights were dim, and only a section of the road ahead was reflected, but the expressions on people's faces could not be seen clearly.

Amidst the silent embarrassment, the road seemed extraordinarily long and difficult.

Seeing that he had arrived at Qingfengtang, Luo Tianzhen couldn't help but said, "Ah Si, does it still hurt?"

Zhen Miao paused, her lips tightly pursed and she remained silent.

"Si...that night, I'm sorry..."

Zhen Miao was silent for a long time again, so long that Luo Tianzheng thought she would ignore her, suddenly stepped forward and asked word by word, "Why?"

Luo Tianzhen took a step back subconsciously, and his heart beat wildly.

Zhen Miao raised her head.Staring at him stubbornly, his eyes are brighter than the cold stars in the sky, and as cold as starlight, "Jin Ming, you have to tell me why?"

This time, it was Luo Tianzheng's turn to purse his lips and remain silent.

Zhen Miao turned around, and the voice seemed to come from afar: "Jin Ming, what happened that night, I really hate you. I thought I would ignore you for the rest of my life. But these two days were probably very sad, Instead, think too much, I always think you are sick."

"Sick?" Luo Tianzhen felt a little funny, but also a little distressed.

What is she thinking about?

Only then did Zhen Miao turn around, with a serious face: "I'm sick, I don't know if you've heard of it. People can get sick not only physically, but also mentally."

"Psycho?" Luo Tianxuan raised his eyebrows.

Zhen Miao showed a child-teachable expression, and thought about explaining in a language he could understand: "In other words, our heart has obstacles that we can't get over, obstacles, and this is also a disease."

Luo Tianxuan's expression became serious.His voice became dry: "Go on."

"This kind of psychological barrier will make people unable to control their emotions. They will do abnormal things."

It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck Luo Tianxuan's mind, and he became clear at the moment.

Mental disorder, mental disorder!

Ah Si was right, the hurdle in his heart was not just a psychological barrier!

He was almost so excited that he couldn't control himself, and hugged Zhen Miao.

He couldn't think of it anymore, without confessing.She actually understood him, and this kind of understanding seemed to break through the haze in an instant.Impossible not to be moved.

Zhen Miao firmly pushed Luo Tianzheng away, took a step back to widen the distance between the two, and said slowly: "If you are sick, you must be cured."

"Cure?" The excited expression faded from that handsome face, "How to cure it?"

"You have to tell me how that hurdle in your heart came about."

Luo Tianzhen fell silent again.

There was a smile on the corner of Zhen Miao's mouth that seemed to disappear at any time: "Jin Ming, can you tell me now, why is your attitude towards me so hot and cold?"

After waiting for a long time, that smile disappeared in the cold night.

Luo Tianxuan opened his mouth with difficulty: "What if I'm not sick?"

Zhen Miao tilted her head and smiled: "If you have such a character and do such a thing, I can't get over the hurdle in my heart, we are finished—"

Frankly speaking, she hadn't loved him deeply yet, and she had worked hard for the relationship between the two of them. If it didn't work out, she would return to the position of a stranger and live their own lives.

These words were like a sharp arrow piercing Luo Tianzheng's heart, and then pulled out fiercely, bringing out blood and flesh.

He staggered almost unable to stand, and finally admitted after a while: "Jiaojiao, you are right, I am sick."

"But—" He opened his mouth again with difficulty, "What if I can't tell the reason?"

Did you say he was born again?Would she see him as a ghost?

Zhen Miao stared at him with almost no expression on her face: "Not all women have the patience to wait to hear the reason"

After finishing speaking, I didn't miss it any more, and went in with a lantern.

Luo Tianzheng was leaning on an old plum tree, not feeling the snow had wet the cloak, and his eyes were fixed on the faint light from the living room of the two.

He knew very well that she was still waiting for him, and when the light went out, her patience might run out.

The night gradually deepened, and even the crescent moon hid in the clouds, making the courtyard even darker, and the faint light became extraordinarily bright, as if guiding people not to get lost in this lonely and desolate night.

The candle flame flickered a few times suddenly, and the light sprinkled on the window screen flickered, implying that the candle seemed to have burned to the end.

When it really came to this moment, that kind of difficult choice seemed to disappear all of a sudden, Luo Tianzheng rushed over like an arrow that left the string, and skillfully jumped in through the window.

Zhen Miao suddenly turned around.

Luo Tianzhen strode over, looked straight into her eyes, and said in a calm voice that surprised even himself: "Ah Si, I once, had a dream..." (to be continued. If you like this work, You are welcome to vote for recommendation votes and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
