Cure the cold-faced general by solving crimes

Chapter 25 Just a storm
  Jiang Xihe closed his eyes and hummed softly.

Xie Qiyuan leaned towards her and continued to ask cautiously: "But I heard that there seem to be other ideas over there."

Jiang Xihe didn't move his eyelids, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Just ask directly, I heard that the Li family is canceling the engagement, what's going on?"

Xie Qiyuan concentrated and smiled: "It's good for you, you're not sad?"

In fact, Xie Qiyuan's mood was ups and downs when he came back from the south this time.

When he set out last year, everything was fine with the Jiang family, and Father Jiang had no intention of marrying Jiang Xihe.

Xie Qiyuan wanted to wait for him to come back from running a gang, earn more money, and support his family's business, so that he would have the courage to express his feelings to his parents. He liked Jiang Xihe and wanted to marry her.

Unexpectedly, the development of things was completely different from his plan. The first thing Xie Qiyuan did when he came to the city was to hear that Father Jiang was gone and Jiang Xihe was engaged. His sky fell.

Then he heard that the Li family was going to break off the engagement, and Xie Qiyuan was happy again.

He came today for two purposes. First, he missed her, and second, he wanted to hear her thoughts.

Jiang Xihe's current expression told her that she didn't care about Li Chengye that much, and she wasn't disappointed in the divorce.

Xie Qiyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "What's going on? What do you think?" Xie Qiyuan was happy, and his voice was full of joy.

Jiang Xihe took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and smiled deeper, "You have already asked me about it, and why are you asking me? It's just what you heard, it's nothing."

This was too understatement, and Xie Qiyuan refused to accept it, "Jiang Xihe, this matter didn't happen when I left last year. Father Jiang really entrusted you to Li Chengye? Do you really not care?"

Xie Qiyuan was afraid that Jiang Xihe would have true feelings for Li Chengye this year. Otherwise, how could Father Jiang propose an engagement between the two?
  Jiang Xihe opened his eyes and looked at Xie Qiyuan, "Do you think I can't live without Li Chengye because of my engagement? Is it possible?"

"No!" Xie Qiyuan said firmly.

"Isn't that enough?" Jiang Xihe closed his eyes again and said slowly, "No one knows what my father and Li Chengye said at that time. The marriage was just talked about verbally. The old lady of the Li family was also happy. From the beginning, she spent the whole day Run this way." Jiang Xihe was a little excited when he said it, and his voice could not help but be a little louder.

"Now at Li Chengye High School, the old lady of the Li family is very angry. She thinks that a little girl like me is not good enough for her son. So forget it. What else can I do?"

Jiang Xihe curled her lips: "You can retreat if you want. It doesn't matter at all. The verbal agreement can be ignored. Why does she have to slander me outside? Slander my father?"

"Don't be angry." Xie Qiyuan felt relieved, and the smile on his face deepened, "What do you think of Li Chengye? How do you feel?"

This question was very direct, but Jiang Xihe did not shy away from it: "At first, I thought it would be okay to marry Li Chengye in this life. After all, he doesn't hate him. But then I saw the attitude of the Li family and I pulled him down. I didn't have any idea."

Xie Qiyuan was really happy, but Jiang Xihe's voice was a little excited: "I don't understand, why can't the Li family just break up with me openly? Why do you want to break off the engagement, but you don't dare to say it? You feel like you've lost face, and you're bastardizing me outside. Dirty water, you said you knew everything, but who else in Ping'an County doesn't know this about me?"

Jiang Xihe opened his eyes suddenly, remembering that Pei Zhizhao knew that she was engaged, and he felt a little more hatred for the Li family.

Xie Qiyuan said harshly: "His family bullies you alone. If Brother Feng is here, they won't dare."

Mentioning Jiang Xifeng, Jiang Xifeng's eyes were slightly hot: "I wanted to write a letter to my brother before and ask him to come forward and explain the matter clearly, but now he is focused on taking the exam. I can't disturb him. My brother's exam is a big deal. Let's wait for him to come back. This marriage is I must make it clear that I have to retreat even if I don’t retreat, and I don’t want to now!”

Xie Qiyuan was even happier, "I was not here at the time. If I had been here last year, I would never have allowed Father Jiang to make this stupid decision."

Jiang Xihe threw a knife over his eyes.

Xie Qiyuan shrank his neck: "I'm not confused, it's just a storm, a trivial matter."

Jiang Xihe sighed, "My father still can't let me go. A lot of things have happened this year, but it's good to have you back. At least I have someone to discuss things with."

Xie Qiyuan patted his chest, unable to hide the emotion in his eyes, "If you have anything to say, please speak."

Jiang Xihe asked: "Your business is so good, can you make some money with me?" Xie Qiyuan was stunned, "What do you want to do?"

Jiang Xihe looked into the distance faintly: "Let's make money. My father is gone. The Xiangzhu Academy is deserted. I went there a few days ago and the grass grew half a foot high. I have no other skills except cooking and writing petitions." , but how can there be so many petitions for me to write?"

Xie Qiyuan probed: "After the Li family broke off the engagement, you never thought about finding someone else? Girls have to get married sooner or later."

Jiang Xihe rolled his eyes at Xie Qiyuan with dissatisfaction: "I don't like to hear this. You have to marry someone you like when you marry. Besides, what does it have to do with me making money and marrying someone?"

Xie Qiyuan wanted to say that if you marry me, you don't have to worry about money, but he doesn't dare.

Also, marry the one you like. So, has she ever liked Li Chengye?

Xie Qiyuan felt a little blocked in his heart and asked dully: "Then you like Li Chengye?"

Jiang Xihe snorted coldly.

A gust of wind blew by, and Jiang Xihe thought of Li Chengye's appearance at her door a few days ago, and the only trace of warmth disappeared with the wind.

Jiang Xihe said seriously: "The more money, the better. You will have the confidence to go anywhere." After speaking, he looked at Xie Qiyuan, "Do you have any ideas?"

Xie Qiyuan touched his chin and said, "Give me time to think about it."

He planned to find a shop, say that he would lend it to Jiang Xihe, and then secretly add some money to the shop every month, saying that Jiang Xihe earned it. This way, without anyone noticing, Jiang Xihe would be happy, and he would be considered a big help.

But how can I speak at home?
  Xie Qiyuan knew that his parents had a bad impression of Jiang Xihe, which was why he had not dared to say that he liked Jiang Xihe for so many years.

But he is willing to work hard for Jiang Xihe. As long as he is more flexible in business and expands the family business, his parents will definitely respect his decision when they see him grow up.

"Don't think about anything else first, I'll think about it." Xie Qiyuan said seriously.

"I don't think about anything else now. The world still cares about reputation. You said you have heard all these rumors, let alone other people? Even if I don't care about reputation, it still doesn't sound good to people who have divorced me. Now that my brother is not at home, I will find my husband's house by myself. ?”

Jiang Xihe closed his eyes again: "My father didn't expect this result. How much did he pay to support Li Chengye back then? In exchange for his daughter's bad reputation, he was disowned."

Xie Qiyuan vowed: "People who like you won't care about this. People who don't like you will know that these are nothing more than laughing at you and talking about you. You just don't care."

Jiang Xihe's dark eyes opened again, and he couldn't help but tease: "Young Master Xie has made great progress after being away for a year. Can you explain such a difficult-to-talk truth?"

Jiang Xihe chuckled.

"You're laughing at me again!" Xie Qiyuan couldn't help it. After all, he liked her, but he felt that she treated him differently than he treated her.

Jiang Xihe held up a handful of melon seeds and said, "We have known each other for so many years, what else can't we say? Eat it."

Pei Zhizhao stood outside the courtyard for half a stick of incense and heard every word of what the two people in the courtyard were talking about.

It's May, and the hibiscus tree at the entrance of the alley is growing upward with open arms.

The layers of flower bones are pink and tender, trying to break free.

The spring breeze blows, warming people, making people love this season for no reason.

It seems that all the cold, bland, bad and annoying things in the past will be blown away by the spring breeze.

The courtyard became quiet, and Pei Zhizhao walked into the courtyard.
