The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 203 Watching the Wedding from the Observatory

Seeing that Qiao Jiuxiu had calmed down, everyone let out a sigh of relief. Although it was lively outside, the inner hall was quiet. Qiao Qixiu always liked quietness. Not at all uncomfortable.Although Qiao Wuxiu likes to move, but because she has restrained a lot after marriage, she can be very quiet now.Qiao Jiuxiu sat there blankly for a while and then couldn't bear it anymore.It's not because she's restless, it's the bustle outside that deeply attracted her.Biting her lip slightly, she seemed to have made up her mind, so she walked to Seventh Sister's side, "Seventh Sister, I want to go out, don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Qiao Qixiu nodded. There are three urgencies in people, she also expressed her understanding, and told Qiao Jiuxiu to come back early.Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, since they didn't know the way anyway, she would say that she was lost when she came back, and guessed that the two sisters would not say anything.And more importantly, she had already joined in the fun at that time, so it was worth being scolded.So he ran out secretly.

When she came all the way, she memorized the way along the way. Although she was not very clear, she still vaguely remembered the general direction, and as long as she looked for the source of the lively noise, she would be right.She knew that she hardly knew anyone in the capital, and no one who came here today, except Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin, probably knew her.And Madam and the others are so busy in the main hall now, how could they take care of themselves?Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to sneak out.

"You are indeed here." A man's voice was heard suddenly, but Qiao Jiuxiu's face was only frightened for a moment, and it turned into surprise in the next moment, "Chen Chu, why is it you again, why did you appear in this place?" Woolen cloth?"

"Lin Zhiyi is a very good friend of mine. He got married today, shouldn't I show up?" Chen Chu chuckled. Since Lin Zhiyi married Miss Six of Qiao's family, he would naturally invite all of Qiao's family to come over as guests. Qiao Jiuxiu must also in it.It's just that these unmarried concubines can only stay in the inner hall and cannot go out to meet guests.So he simply waited in the garden outside the inner hall, anyway, he knew that someone would not be able to bear the loneliness and sneak out.Now it seems that I guessed correctly.

So the pair of peach blossom eyes were full of joking expressions, "Why, isn't Xiu'er excited when she sees me? Or are you tired of seeing me so often?"

Qiao Jiuxiu smiled awkwardly, what can she say, she can say that the last sentence of his is clearly extremely sad, if he is allowed to play the role of a bitter woman, he will definitely be very brilliant, of course, these words can only be thought of in her heart Thinking about it, there was still a smile on his face, "How could it be? I don't have many friends in the capital, so I am very happy to see you today, but I think we are really destined. I can meet you wherever I go. And you."

Hearing this, Chen Chu had an unnatural expression on his face.These days he met Qiao Jiuxiu much more frequently than before, and he knew it was bad, but every time he couldn't control his inner thoughts, he always wanted to find various opportunities to spend time with Qiao Jiuxiu alone.It seems that if you don't see each other for a day, it's like three autumns. "Let's go, for the sake of satisfying me with your answer to the question just now, I'll take you to a place."

"Where are you going?" Qiao Jiuxiu looked at Chen Chu suspiciously. She has very important things to do now. Chen Chu shrugged slightly, "Didn't you sneak out to see the marriage? Let's go, I'll take you Go to a place where we can see clearly and no one can see us."

"Really?" Qiao Jiuxiu grabbed Chen Chu's hand in excitement, "This is really great, let's go, we'll go there right away, I hope I haven't missed the wedding, I can't wait."

Chen Chu smiled lightly, without reminding her, and let Qiao Jiuxiu hold his hand. He felt that this felt good, as if he wanted to hold her hand all the time, to the ends of the world and the ends of the earth.Chen Chu quickly brought Qiao Jiuxiu to the First Lookout Pavilion. Although the Lookout Pavilion was only seven or eight meters high, if one stood on it, he would be able to see all the scenery of the Lin Mansion clearly.It is said that Mr. Lin built the Lookout Pavilion to get closer to the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival.He and Lin Zhiyi are very good friends, so they often come to the mansion to play. Logically speaking, outsiders are not allowed in the inner courtyard, but he is a prince, and no one dares to stop him, so he is very familiar with Lin's mansion over time.

Qiao Jiuxiu was also very happy to see the observatory, it was the first time she had seen such an observatory, it must be very romantic to stand on it at night and watch the stars, so she couldn't help but sighed in a low voice, "I really want to watch the stars from above. "

She said this on her lips, but she knew in her heart that she might never have such a chance.There is no watchtower in Qiao's residence, and when he gets married into his husband's family, there may be a watchtower, but how could she have such a chance as a concubine?So there was somewhat of a sense of loss in that sentence just now.Chen Chu was slightly taken aback, she did not expect that the expression on her face would be so charming when she was disappointed.I decided in my heart that when I returned to the mansion, I would start building the watchtower.Then wait for her to marry in and give it to her.

"Let's go, let's go up." After Qiao Jiuxiu cleared up her mood, she boarded the observation deck with Chen Chu, and sure enough, there were crowds of people not far below. The wife was sitting at the main table, and people kept coming to say hello to her. , Mrs. Lin sat next to his wife, talking to her every once in a while, and the whole scene was very harmonious.Qiao Jiuxiu pursed her lips, it seemed that the wedding hadn't started yet, and it wasn't too late for them to come.

"The newcomer is here." Chen Chu reminded in a low voice from the side.He has seen this kind of marriage countless times, big and small, just like that, nothing special.So his focus is on admiring Qiao Jiuxiu. It seems that he hasn't seen her for a while, whether it's three or five days, or seven or eight days, maybe a little longer, but she is more beautiful than the last time we met too much.I don't know if this sultry woman is thinking of herself for a moment when he thinks of her all the time?

Qiao Jiuxiu frowned slightly. She didn't know why Chen Chu was looking at her all the time, and asked with some doubts, "Well, is there something unclean on my face? Otherwise, why did you keep staring at me?"

"No." Chen Chu quickly turned his head to the side, "You think too much, you see, they are already praying to heaven and earth. Chen Chu knows that it is a bit blunt for him to change the subject at this time, but if he continues, he is afraid She couldn't help but do something to Qiao Jiuxiu. But Qiao Jiuxiu didn't realize it, she smiled and nodded, and put all her attention on the following marriage.

The wedding below was still very lively, the heaven and the earth had finished worshiping, and then Xi Niang led Qiao Liuxiu back down, Lin Zhiyi stayed where he was, accepting everyone's blessings, a total of twelve tables were set up on the dam outside the main hall, according to the custom, they Every table must be aware, otherwise it will be impolite.Qiao Jiuxiu let out a laugh, she knew Lin Zhiyi's drinking capacity, he was not very good at drinking, he should be drunk in less than half of the time, maybe there will be some joke later.

"You seem to be very happy." Chen Chu saw the strong smile on Qiao Jiuxiu's face, and said with a light smile.Qiao Jiuxiu then told about the last time she had dinner with Lin Zhiyi, saying that he didn't drink very well and wondered if he would get drunk when he got married.In fact, the eldest brother was also there when they drank last time, so it was mainly the eldest brother and cousin Zhiyi who drank, and she was only responsible for pouring wine and eating food, after all, no one would force the little girl to drink with them.

Chen Chu's face turned cold. He didn't like Qiao Jiuxiu's intimate address to Lin Zhiyi. Although they were cousins ​​and it was normal for them to have contacts, he just cared a lot. He had never had a meal with Qiao Jiuxiu before, so he just Already drunk in front of her, which made him very intolerable.Unexpectedly, Qiao Jiuxiu added fuel to the fire and said, "It's just why Cousin Zhiyi is wearing a navy blue belt today? It's somewhat inappropriate, even though I gave it to him, he can't ignore it." Occasion."

Qiao Jiuxiu flattened her mouth. Although she was separated from a distance, she could see it clearly. Then she remembered that every time she saw Lin Zhiyi, he always wore that belt. I don't know if it was a coincidence or he always wore it. for the sake.Shaking his head slightly, "Cousin Zhiyi is really too, how can he wear it all the time without changing it? It seems that he has to make another one for a long time, or else there will be no change."

Although Qiao Jiuxiu was clever, she had always been very insensitive to matters between men and women, just like now that Chen Chu was standing beside her, she didn't feel his strong liking for her.Chen Chu tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart. He didn't expect Qiao Jiuxiu to make a special belt for Lin Zhiyi, and he was planning to make a second one. Doesn't she think that she, a woman who has never been in the cabinet, can easily be taken down by Gua Tianli if she helps a man make such a thing? ?

Looking back, Qiao Jiuxiu saw that Chen Chu was a little angry and frowned slightly. She didn't know why he was angry. Could it be because she didn't make anything for him? "Don't be angry, or I'll make you a belt some other day. What color do you like? You can buy this fabric."

It wasn't that she was stingy, it was because her wife deducted half a year's monthly payment from her. She didn't have any money, so she couldn't afford the fabrics. Besides, Chen Chu always wore rich and luxurious clothes, so the fabric for belts must be very good, so she couldn't afford it.

Chen Chu looked at Qiao Jiuxiu helplessly. Can he say that she really understands him?He lost his temper in an instant.
