Chapter 12 Temptation

Shang Yu stood at the gate of the courtyard in a daze, watching her slender figure melt into the night, a strange feeling slowly rose in his heart, did he really bully her?

He began to think back, from the first day he saw her.

At that time she was standing at the gate of the mountain, looking at him cautiously with a red face, although she was as shy as a green fruit, she was charming.He had a very good first impression of her, so he made things difficult for her and wanted her to quit.Because Qishimen is not that easy to treat, he thinks that such a delicate girl like her should stay in the back garden embroidering flowers and reading poems, which is the most pleasing to the eye.

But she looked limp, but her eyes were full of stubbornness.He had no choice but to take out his "killer mace", but unexpectedly, she was not afraid. In fact, when he asked her to kiss him, he really felt ashamed to bully the little girl, but this was the master's order, so he had no choice but to do so.

Later, the master left her and asked him to test them deliberately.Although she is thin, she is stubborn and strong.In fact, he was very angry. Is this just for ten taels of silver?He really wanted to knock her on the head and drive her home. She should live a loving life under her parents' knees.

When she lied to him by endorsing the letter, he was very angry. He slapped her palm to let her understand that for some people, she might not appreciate you helping her, and in the end it hurt herself instead.You have the ability to take care of yourself before you think about taking care of others.Afterwards, he felt soft-hearted again, and asked Qi Yang to send her two boxes of ointment. After thinking about it, he gave Lin Xiyan another box to show her fairness.

She saw his joke, and he didn't know why he minded being angry so much. The most hateful thing was that he "sold out" him for a pair of insoles.But when she brought a bowl of medicinal soup, he looked contemptuous on the surface, but in his heart, he was actually very happy.

So, thinking of her kindness, he kindly reminded her not to have any entanglements with Xie Cong, and deliberately played an ambiguous scene in front of Xie Cong, so that Xie Cong might misunderstand them a bit.Could it be that he wronged her?Maybe she was really wronged, and her angry look was not fake at all.

He was actually a little happy. As a senior brother, he felt that it was understandable and reasonable for him to give her more trouble.

Back in Zhuqueyuan, Si Tian was even more annoyed when he saw that there was a handsome and burnt figure on Sister Su's window.She didn't believe that he would have any plans for her, but it was just that the nature of harming the country and the people couldn't be restrained for a while, and if he was idle, he would be idle, so let's harm the grass and make fun of it.

So, she made a cup of "special" tea for Brother Cong in the room, and brought it outside Sister Su's room.

At the door, she was stunned.

The words in it almost made the tea in her hand drop to the ground.

"After three years, am I still not good enough for you?"

"Don't talk about it. I refused three years ago. Three years later, I will not agree." Sister Su's voice was calm and firm, not at all gentle and lazy when talking with them during the day.

Si Tian slowly retreated to his room, poured brother Cong's special cup of tea with a smile, and brewed two cups of spring tea again.The fragrance of tea wafted up and smelt warmly under her nose. She watched with a smile as the dancing tea leaves floated up and down, and gradually the dust settled at the bottom of the cup, like Xie Cong's thoughts blooming in the mist.That's right, she couldn't help being a little funny.The little bit of grievance that was aroused by Shang Yu just now was gone, and the thought of Shang Yu cautiously calling her to the door to warn her made people feel ridiculous.

She approached Sister Su's room with tea generously, and cleared her throat on purpose outside the door.

Sister Su and Xie Cong both sat there with composure, as if nothing had happened.She wondered in private, could it be that Brother Cong has been rejected more times and his face is thicker?How come you don't look decadent and heartbroken at all?

"Oh, little junior sister is really understanding, knowing that my throat is dry."

Sister Su said calmly, "Your throat is dry, let's drink some tea and go to bed."

"Here, Lonely Pillow." Before the words "difficult to sleep" could be said, Si Tian preemptively said more understandingly: "Sister Su, I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep first."

So, those two were left in the room.

Si Tian went out of the room and pursed his lips to hold back a smile.In fact, Brother Cong is not bad either, it is actually very suitable to match with Sister Su.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a wailing in Sister Su's room, it was Xie Cong's voice.

"You won't leave even if you beat me." God, was he beaten?Si Tian wanted to go in to persuade the fight, but felt it was inappropriate, so it was very difficult to stand there.

Then, I heard Xie Cong say: "Su Pian, don't think that because you are five years older than me, you will always be my sister!"

Heh, Sister Su stopped barking and called Su Pian directly!Enough guts!

There was another cry.

"You see, you have affection for me. Hitting is kissing, scolding is love."

Well, it seems that Brother Cong is willing to be beaten. Si Tian thinks it's better to leave quickly. It seems that Sister Su won't really beat him. Don't worry about persuading him. Go back to sleep. If you keep listening, you won't fit.

**** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** ****
In the blink of an eye, it was January again, and after the monthly silver was paid, Si Tian took her down the mountain to see her mother.Outside the mountain gate, unexpectedly met Shang Yu.Why "encounter"?Because since that night, she deliberately avoided him and hadn't seen him for more than ten days.

He is exceptionally handsome and handsome today, with fresh clothes and new boots, and an extraordinary demeanor.Could it be that he went down the mountain to meet his confidante?Si Tian couldn't help but look at him twice more, and then couldn't help but think of the girl who gave insoles and cloth shoes last time, the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up, and she was in a good mood.

Senior Brother Shang was also in a good mood today, so he took the initiative to ask, "Are you going down the mountain to go home?"

Si Tian meekly replied "Yes".

The two went down the stone steps.It's early summer, and the cool wind comes in from the gaps in the thin clothes, gently brushes over the skin, and the hair is gently caressed by the wind, making people feel refreshed and comfortable, and the mood is much lighter.

He was walking on her left side, a little faster than her, but deliberately slowed down and waited for her. In fact, she wished that he would speed up and go first.

They went down a dozen steps in silence, without saying a word, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.She didn't know what to say to the eldest brother who was not easy-going, but it was really embarrassing to keep silent.So, I had nothing to say: "Master, you don't usually wear cloth shoes, do you?" Why do you say that?The first time she saw him was when he was wearing leather boots and lying halfway on the high chair, but today she went down the steps with him, looking down, and what appeared in her eyes was his new boots, so the conversation started from here All right.

It's a pity that this topic was not chosen well. The elder brother was very sensitive when he thought of the cloth shoes given by someone, and his good mood was a little bit bad, and he suspected that she was deliberately picking this thing up, so he squinted. She glanced at her and said "Yes", obviously not intending to continue the conversation.

Si Tian thought to himself, just a word "en"?It's too uneasy, it would be nice if the conversation with Xie Cong was the same, so she had to think about the topic again.

Before she could figure it out, he spoke first: "Si Tian, ​​remember to bring your money?"

The typical pot is not opened and the pot is lifted.

Her good mood was also showing signs of turning bad. Thinking of his misunderstanding of her because of the money, and then suspecting that these words were also deliberately provoking her, she whispered "En", not wanting to say another word, In his heart, she is a money fan, hum.

So, it was cold.

Two people, "concentrate" on the underground stone steps.

At the fork in the mountain road, Si Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and finally wanted to see him goodbye.

Shang Yu did not leave first, slowed down his pace, turned his head and asked, "Do you live nearby?"

"Yes, it's in that village." Si Tian thought that he was about to say goodbye to him, and that he would see his mother in a while, so he was in a good mood, smiling and pointing to the dirt road at the fork, with a bright and charming look on his face.

He felt that the light in front of him seemed to brighten suddenly, he couldn't help but squinted his eyes, said "oh", and stepped on the dirt road.

Si Tian was a little nervous, and asked anxiously after him, "Brother, where are you going?"

"I'm going to the city, and it's closer from here."

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and accompany him for another ride.He is like a tall and straight tree in front of him, covering her shadow.When she saw him, she deliberately slowed down and waited for her, but she simply quickened her pace and walked slightly ahead of him.

Not far away, the stream flowing down from the mountain merged into a small river, and it was Aunt Yang who was washing clothes on the stone slab by the river.

Si Tian walked quickly to the river, and said with a smile, "Aunt Yang, I'm back."

Aunt Yang stood up, and when she saw Si Tian, ​​she couldn't help but cast her eyes on Shang Yu, so she smiled, and kindly invited: "This is Mr. Lin, please come and sit at home, don't be disrespectful." Shabby."

Shang Yu frowned, his face turned cold, and he looked down at Si Tian.

She suddenly felt that his eyes were gloomy, like clear pool water shadowing dark clouds, isn't it just that he was mistaken, why is he so displeased?She hurriedly said, "Aunt Yang, he is my elder brother."

Aunt Yang said "Oh", with a very regretful expression clearly on her face.

Shang Yu nodded to Aunt Yang, and went straight away.

Aunt Yang looked at his back and whispered, "I thought Mr. Lin found you."

Si Tian frowned and said in a low voice: "Aunt Yang, don't mention him anymore, just pretend that there is no such person in the world."

Aunt Yang said: "You go back first, I have washed these two clothes."

Si Tian agreed, bowed his head and walked to Aunt Yang's house.

After walking not far, she suddenly found that Shang Yu was waiting at the intersection with arms folded.The shade of the tree was thick, and his face seemed to be covered with a gloomy shadow in the green shadow, with sword-like eyebrows.

Her eyelids twitched, and when she suddenly saw him again, she was a little flustered, why was he waiting here?Are you waiting for her?

He squinted his eyes and stared at her approaching, and said straight to the point, "Who is Mr. Lin?"

Did you wait here on purpose just to inquire about other people's privacy?She was a little dissatisfied in her heart, but she didn't dare to express it, and whispered: "It's an old friend."

Brother Shang was obviously not easy to fool, so he raised his eyebrows and continued to ask: "What old man?"

Si Tian didn't want to mention Lin Yifeng at all.But Shang Yu's eyes were burning, and he was determined to investigate to the end.She was a little ashamed, and wanted to cross her hips and ask him glaringly: Why are you asking in such detail, are you my mother?
However, he bullied at the intersection, and made it clear that I won't let you pass unless he made it clear, like a robber road bully.

Reminiscent of the time when she hit her with twenty rulers in the palm and threatened not to lie to him in the future, and seeing clearly the current situation in front of her that she couldn't pass the intersection without telling the truth, she had no choice but to confess: "It's my former fiancé."

He raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "Do you have a fiance?" When he read those three words, he felt very uncomfortable.

What do you mean by that?Can't I have it?Do I look like I can't get married?Is it discrimination against my appearance or character?She pursed her lips and said nothing, but she felt a little displeased and dissatisfied.

The winking senior brother Shang didn't care about her muttering and dissatisfaction at all, and continued to ask, "What do you mean by the previous one?"

Is it over?She was a little annoyed, and blurted out: "That's right, he broke off the engagement. Because my family fell into ruin, I became a pauper, and I can't climb up to him."

After finishing speaking, I felt extremely relieved in my heart, as if I had shouted out the little bit of resentment left in the past, and my heart was transparently bright.In fact, she didn't like him either, but it was the words of the matchmaker and the order of the parents.Her little bit of resentment is just a little disappointed with the human nature exposed to the cruelty of the world.However, after shouting, she felt a little regretful, he wouldn't laugh at her, would he?It's really not a glorious thing to be divorced.

Sure enough, Senior Brother Shang raised the corners of his lips and smiled.

Although he smiled comfortably and without any hint of sarcasm, she was still ashamed and annoyed, and wanted to stomp on his feet again.

Shang Yu smiled and said: "Si Tian, ​​then you can't become a money fan just because of this."

Unable to explain to him, Si Tian looked at the crow's nest on the tree and didn't want to say another word.

Brother Shang seemed to be in a good mood after he found out about her privacy. Shi Shiran stepped out of the intersection, and Si Tian passed him with a sullen face, with a strong aura.
