The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 28 Love Letter (2)
After lunch, Zhou Pei and his wife were about to leave. Mrs. Liu took the fresh peanut sticks prepared in advance to the car, and asked them to go home and cook them.

The old couple of the Zhou family liked to eat this. Zhou Pei thanked him again and again, helped his wife and son into the car, he got on the horse, took his leave and left.

The five members of the Lin family stood at the door and watched them off. Liu looked at Ah Ju, thought about it, and didn't mention this to her husband.

At this time, Zhao Chen had just finished his meal, and dismissed his servants. He lazily lay on the kang, staring at the blue sky outside the window in a trance.

It's been half a month, she should slow down, right?
According to his understanding of Lin Xian and his wife, the two of them are definitely not people who follow others, and it is impossible for them to agree immediately when he proposes marriage.They will definitely ask their daughter what she means, and she...

Zhao Chen smiled wryly, he knew himself, Ah Ju definitely didn't want to marry him, at least not now.

That day in the study room, due to the pride in his bones, he didn't want to show that he had a little affection for Ah Ju when he looked down on him, so he refused to admit that he had misunderstood her.On the way to leave angrily, he made a careful plan, first to urge Meng Zhongjing to withdraw from the marriage, and then to decide that it was a means she used to marry him, so that he could take advantage of it and have an excuse to marry her.Of course she wouldn't want to, but as long as he made Lin Chongjiu disappear for a few days and let her know how powerful he was, she would naturally be afraid.When she marries in, he treats her well, and after a long time, she will understand that although he is bad, he is a good husband, and thus wins her heart.

But after hearing her cry all night, he suddenly didn't want to use such a strong method to force her again.

To change to a gentle method, let her change her opinion of herself before marriage, and it will save a lot of trouble after marriage.

It's just that he has never tried how to coax a girl.

The first thing to do is to apologize to her?
Zhao Chen pursed his lips. After the age of seven, he never apologized to anyone except his mother.

It was hard for him to imagine standing in front of her, apologizing under her cold gaze, only to receive a ruthless ridicule.

As long as he doesn't apologize, he has always been a playboy in her eyes, and it is impossible for her to change his mind.

Zhao Chen had a headache, raised his hand to rub his forehead, finally sat up, put on his shoes and went to the study.

Since you can't say it, write a letter.

Spreading paper and rubbing ink, the young man leaned on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and composed words and sentences silently.

The sun was gradually setting towards the east, and Chen Ping's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, it's time for dinner."

Startled, Zhao Chen raised his eyes to look out the window, only to find that the sky was already dark.

He looked at the paper on the table, put down his pen after a while, crumpled the paper, and threw it into the waste paper basket beside him.

He had something on his mind, and in front of the people closest to him, it was inevitable that he would show his clues.

Ning asked him curiously: "Why do you look so sad? I heard from Chen Ping that you have been in the study all afternoon?"

Zhao Chen looked at his mother, but in the end he gave up learning from her. He didn't intend to let his mother know before Ah Ju made any progress.

"Recently, there was a problem with an account, and I have been checking the account. Don't worry, mother, I'm already done." Zhao Chen smiled and brought Ning's food.

Ning had no doubts, the mother and son had dinner as usual.

After dinner, Zhao Chen accompanied Ning Shi for a stroll outside the Zhuangzi, and after sending Ning Shi back, he turned around and went to the study.

The soft light stayed on until midnight before dimming, and the figure on the window also disappeared. With the sound of footsteps, Zhao Chen walked out the door with a letter in his arms.It was pitch black outside, and the night sky was full of stars.He looked up and stared, and suddenly felt like laughing, he thought about making meritorious deeds, and about getting revenge, but he never expected that there would be such a day, because of a woman and a letter, he could not sleep at night.

The courtyard was filled with the quiet fragrance of orchids, and Zhao Chen's footsteps gradually slowed down. He took the lantern in Chen Ping's hand and motioned him to step back.

Chen Ping answered in a low voice, turned around and went around the corner of the corridor, he couldn't help but look back.

He saw his young master standing in front of the flower garden with his back to him, wondering what he was thinking.

Chen Ping shook his head and looked away.

Not long after he left, in the dim light, Zhao Chen leaned over, his gaze slowly swept across the orchids, with a calm and focused expression.

After a good night's sleep, Zhao Chen led Chen Ping out the next morning.

Today Lin Xian personally sent Lin Chongjiu over again, thanking him for the precious birthday gift, Zhao Chen responded calmly, exchanged greetings for a while and watched Lin Xian leave.

Lin Chongjiu complained to him quietly: "My mother put away the jade pendant that brother Zhao gave, saying that she was afraid that I would accidentally break it."

Zhao Chen smiled slightly, and looked down at him: "Then I'll give Xiao Jiu a slightly worse one? It doesn't matter if it's broken."

Lin Chongjiu shook his head quickly: "No, no, actually I'm not used to wearing that, brother Zhao looks good in it." He really didn't want it, his eyes were clear and open, without any lust or longing.

With such an elder sister, how could the younger brother's character be too bad?

Zhao Chen patted Lin Chongjiu's head, and still let him squat in the shade of a tree, and he leaned aside and talked to him: "How is your eldest sister these two days? Do you like to laugh?" Because something happened to Ah Ju , it doesn't seem too strange to talk about her, besides, Zhao Chen doesn't intend to hide it from this future brother-in-law.

He asked Lin Chongjiu not to move or turn his head while squatting, so Lin Chongjiu could only say to the river in front of him: "Well, my uncle and aunt came here yesterday, and the elder sister laughed several times, and the food is also good." A little more than before."

That's good.

Zhao Chen didn't ask any more questions.

Squatting and learning kung fu, it was almost noon before I knew it.Zhao Chen looked at the sky, called Lin Chongjiu to his side, took out the letter he had written with all his heart, and calmly said to Lin Chongjiu: "Xiao Jiu, I wrote a letter to your eldest sister, you quietly Give it to her for me, just the two of you, don’t let anyone see it, and don’t tell the third person, can you do it?”

Lin Chongjiu's eyes widened.

If he was just an ordinary seven-year-old child, he might have agreed right away, but he has passed too many times on behalf of Meng Zhongjing and Ah Ju, and he already understands that such things should not be done, unless...

He raised his head and asked the man in the fancy dress in front of him in disbelief: "Brother Zhao, you, do you like my eldest sister?"

Zhao Chen was slightly startled, then turned to look at the boy's eyes seriously and replied: "Yes, I want to marry her, but Xiaojiu is willing to let your elder sister marry me?"

Lin Chongjiu didn't answer immediately, but scratched his head, his eyes were blank.

He always thought that Meng Zhongjing would be his eldest brother-in-law, and the eldest sister liked Meng Zhongjing, so did he.But Meng Zhongjing married another woman, and he made the elder sister sick and thin and didn't like to laugh anymore... Lin Chongjiu didn't know what the elder sister was thinking now, but he just felt that even someone like Meng Zhongjing who had known him for a long time would bully the elder sister Sister, this Brother Zhao...

"Brother Zhao, why do you like my eldest sister? You have never met her before." Lin Chongjiu asked in a low voice.

Zhao Chen glanced at him approvingly, sat on the grass next to him, thought about it, and smiled, "There's no reason, just like I hit it off with you, I just like her. Don't worry, Xiaojiu, I'm different from Meng Zhongjing, I will Treat your eldest sister well, and never let her down. So, are you willing to help me?"

Lin Chongjiu was still undecided.He admires and likes this man, but it depends on the elder sister. If the elder sister doesn't like Brother Zhao, he can't help secretly.

Zhao Chen also understood Lin Chongjiu, and was not angry because of his hesitation, he just sighed: "Well, Xiao Jiu will help me this time first, if your elder sister doesn't allow you to help me again, I won't bother you in the future, How are you?"

Lin Chongjiu nodded obediently.This man is so kind to him, he is willing to help him once, even if he will be scolded by his elder sister.

Zhao Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and personally helped Lin Chongjiu hide the letter, and told him several times before letting him go.

Over there, after Lin Chongjiu returned home, she couldn't help but look for the elder sister first.

In the kitchen, the mother was preparing lunch alone, in the wing room the second sister was lying on the kang and fiddled with her jewelry box, and the eldest sister was sitting at the table reading a book.Lin Chongjiu didn't go in, so he stood at the door and said to Ah Ju: "Eldest sister, mother asked you to help light the fire."

"Well, I'll go right away." Ah Ju didn't think much, put down the book, got up and walked outside.

After arriving outside, Lin Chongjiu quietly dragged her aside, took out the envelope from his arms, and said in a low voice, "Eldest sister, Brother Zhao asked me to give it to you, he told you to read it, otherwise he will Keep writing." After speaking, he was afraid that the elder sister would be angry, so he ran away.He delivered the letter, and it has nothing to do with him whether the elder sister reads it or not.

It wasn't until Lin Chongjiu ran out of sight that Aju realized it.

The man's letter to her?

Ah Ju lowered her head, looked at the thin envelope in her hand, and her first thought was to throw the envelope into the stove and burn it.You don't need to think about what that kind of person will write. It's nothing more than forcing her to obey him, and even taunting her and getting divorced.

Forcing himself not to think about the previous marriage, Ah Ju quickly stuffed the envelope into his sleeve, pretending to be calm and walking towards the kitchen.She just left the house, and she hesitated again, that person often comes from home as a guest, if she ignores him this time, will he do something more egregious?
Thinking of those phoenix eyes that are inevitable, and the hostility in his eyes when he was angry, Ah Ju felt cold all over, and could not help but abducted to the study next door.

After closing the door from the inside, Ah Ju hesitated again.

Watch now, or watch this afternoon?

She was uneasy, the unknown content in the letter made her panic, afraid that she would show strangeness in front of her family, and also wanted to know what that person was going to do, so Ah Ju walked quickly to the bookshelf, hid in the dark and took out the letter.There was no writing on the envelope, so Ah Ju bit her lip, opened the unglued seal, and went to get the letter inside.

Just opened, first smell a familiar aroma.

Ah Ju was stunned for a while, and after taking out the letter paper, she didn't rush to read it, but looked inside the envelope.After seeing what was inside, my mind went blank for no reason.

There was no complicated idea, but she really couldn't connect this purple orchid with that cold and stern man.

Aju loves the orchid, but she doesn't feel happy for such an orchid.

After a brief moment of astonishment, she quickly unfolded the letter without looking inside the envelope.

There were only a few lines of small characters on the paper, and Ah Ju didn't bother to appreciate the trend of the man's writing style, so he only frowned at the words:
In the past, he was drunk, offended and abrupt, although he regretted it, his admiration remained unchanged.

Zhiqing retired from marriage, and became sick from worry and thought. Although she was pitiful, she was more happy.

After wandering for many days, I dare to ask again, will you marry me now?
Fortunately, it was allowed, and Xu Baishou will grow old together, and he will live forever.

Zhao Chengyuan.

Siqing is like Mulan.
