In addition to beauty, she also has a mold

Chapter 17: The Past
"like?"

Xiao Yu smiled, shook his head and said, "Miss Jiang and I just met for the first time today, and we said we like each other, is it a bit hasty?"

"Don't be in a hurry, I fell in love with the young master at a glance."

at a glance...

I just liked it.

Back then, she only took one look at that person, and she was stuck in it, unable to extricate herself.

Later she realized that obsession is deeper than liking.

"Miss likes me, because I like my skin, but the temperament under the skin is invisible to the naked eye."

"You marry me, and you will know your temperament in the future."

"As for the matter of getting married, I am willing to pay attention to your affection. If I rashly agree today, you will be the one who will be wronged in the future."

"you……"

"Miss is so beautiful, with a cheerful and pleasant disposition. There are some men from good families who are willing to stay with her for life. I am obsessed with the world, and I really don't care about love between men and women."

"How much is love worth?"

"How much is face worth?"

"Why do you want others to think of you?"

"Yes, why should Miss be so persistent?"

So thorough, yet ruthless, with a look of complete indifference in his eyes.

Jiang Yao felt a chill in her heart, knowing that there was no possibility for the two of them.

When Chu Zhijiang went upstairs to meet people, he met Xiao Yu head-on, she lowered her head and went down the stairs, as if she didn't see him.

Behind her, Miss Jiang leaned on the railing and stared, her eyes filled with reluctance.

He saluted him, turned around and followed Xiao Yu out of Jiang's house.

After returning to the small courtyard, Xiao Yu didn't go out for three whole days. He practiced sword at Chen Shi, rested on his back by the stream at noon, and looked at the moon through the window at midnight.

I don't know what the senior brother said to Jiang Yao's father, but the Jiang family didn't bother her anymore, but it solved a problem in her mind.

But when she dreamed back at midnight, she could always think of Jiang Yao's expression when he questioned her.

Proud, unwilling, wronged.

Through that strange face, what she saw was her aggressive and overconfident self.

She couldn't tell whether what she said that day was persuading Jiang Yao or her former self.

——How much is love worth?
——How much face is worth?
——Why do you need what others think of you?
——Why are you so persistent?

That day, she had nothing to do, so she sneaked to the barracks. It happened that the soldiers were exercising martial arts.

Feeling curious, she pushed her way through the crowd to get a closer look.

He was very agile, surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers, but he couldn't touch half an inch of his clothes, his black figure was like a swimming dragon, coming and going without a trace, dazzling, he quickly broke through the formation of soldiers.

The soldiers were in disarray, wielding their swords and attacking indiscriminately.

But he didn't change his face. After three or four rounds, the soldiers curled up on the ground and mourned, no longer able to fight.

When he stood still, his breathing was steady and his face was not tired.

The yushu is facing the wind, and its appearance is like Pan'an.

That was the only word she could think of to describe his appearance.

His father and elder brothers honored him as King Jin.

King Jin, Li Yingyu.

She had seen the prince in the East Palace, had a drink with the sixth prince, and had looked at the other princes from afar, but she had never met King Jin.

I heard that King Jin lived in seclusion, didn't care about government affairs, and was not liked by His Majesty, so she had arranged with Xu Shurui behind his back that he was an ugly person.

There are two beautiful men in the capital, one is the prince of the current dynasty, and the other is Xu Boyi, the eldest son of Marquis Anle. When the two appear together, they will definitely cause a sensation.

Little did they know, the Prince Jin that she arranged was even more handsome than the two of them, and in ten lifetimes he couldn't be compared with the word ugly.

During that time, Li Yingyu would go to the military camp to discuss matters with her father every day, and she no longer messed around with Xu Shurui, but found an excuse to meet him in the camp.

At that time, she was young and didn't know how to restrain her feelings. Li Yingyu didn't know her thoughts, but she didn't have any distracting thoughts about her, except for etiquette, it was alienation.

She has always been arrogant and indulgent, how could she bear such coldness, stopped his carriage halfway, and broke into the car to question loudly regardless of other people's obstruction.

"What's wrong with Miss Ben?"

"Why do you avoid me everywhere?"

She is the illegitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, and she was raised in the palm of her hand, so why can't she be compared to the illegitimate child of a palace girl?

Being pressed so rudely, the other party not only didn't get annoyed, but laughed instead, still so dignified.

"What does Miss Dong like about me?"

"Good-looking." She blurted out.

She didn't think there was any problem, the only thing she liked and could look at was his skin, otherwise, why didn't she confess to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The reason is not straightforward, and the spirit is also strong.

This appearance made Li Yingyu laugh heartily: "Haha, Miss Dong is honest."

She curled her lips, muttering, of course.

She, Dong Wanwan, has no skills in her life, honesty is the only good thing, even His Majesty has boasted it herself.

The only good thing is - beautiful.

Before getting out of the car, Li Yingyu asked her: "Skin beauty is a gift from parents and a blessing from God, but your appearance will eventually age. I just don't know if Miss Dong likes me more than when she looks old?"

The carriage drove into the palace gate, and she stood on the long street, thinking seriously for a long time.

He actually questioned her intentions, only saying that she was acting on a whim and had no sincerity.

Humph.

Just wait and see.

If at that time, she had listened to his words, turned around and left gracefully, even if she went to a restaurant to drink with Xu Shurui all night and forgot about this person the next day, there would be no future.

later……

Suddenly.

A gust of night wind howled into the window, blew out the candle, and awakened her thoughts.

The hanging moon was shrouded in dark clouds, and the night was dark and dull.

It's the second watch.

She gathered up her coat, closed the window, and entered the curtain in the dark.

-

Finally, the governor's mansion was no longer dead, and the whole mansion became alive. I heard that it was the governor's birthday in a few days, and the servants were all preparing for the birthday banquet.

After nagging for many days, Xiao Yu felt very sorry.

This time, it was her senior brother's grandfather's birthday, she wanted to show that she should present a decent congratulatory gift.

It's just that what gift should be given made her face a difficult situation.

Chu Honggui is the governor of Jinzhou, the gifts given by the guests on the birthday banquet must be good, if the gift she chooses is too cheap, it will naturally not be on the table.

She touched her purse, which was not bulging, and now she was too shy to afford too many expenses.

When going down the mountain, the master secretly gave her ten taels of personal money, which was reserved for emergencies.

On weekdays, food and lodging are all in the governor's mansion, and there are not many places to spend money, so these ten taels are already a lot to her.

Now it's in the palm of my hand, but it's light.

The senior brother's status is different, so it's inconvenient to ask him to borrow some silver to solve the urgent need, otherwise, wouldn't it be using other people's money to give others gifts.

Funny and generous.

She hesitated in the small courtyard, thinking about it, and went to the street for a walk first.

She is not familiar with Jinzhou, and she only goes out of the house once or twice during her stay here, and she has not seen all the rare objects from abroad.
