wedding dress

Chapter 102

After the first month, the weather is warming up day by day, the ice and snow melt, and the warblers fly and the grass grows.

After the incident of Shangyuan Ye, Zhao Zhikuang waited for a long time, and finally entered the gate of Prince An's Mansion again.The maid came in with tea, and Zhao Zhi just kept looking at Xiaodong without saying a word.

She was thinner than before, probably because she took off her winter clothes, so she also looked taller.The childish ignorance faded from the face, revealing some girlish charm.

As soon as the maid went out, she moved forward and held Xiaodong's hand.

"You...you blame me? It's not that I don't want to come, but my family doesn't allow it..."

Xiaodong understands the feelings of King Jingjun and Princess Wang very well.Shang Yuan Ye's assassins were targeting her, and this matter was hidden from outsiders, but Jingjun Palace must know it well.If Zhao Zhi had been with Xiaodong that night, something might have happened to her.

"That day, that night, if I had been with you..."

Xiaodong hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't say that. It was a sudden disaster, who could have predicted it in advance?"

Zhao Zhi flushed with anxiety: "I didn't come to see you, don't you blame me?"

Xiaodong had to comfort her again: "The world is not peaceful, it's better not to go out if you can. Actually, I've been fine for a long time, but I'm just as strict as my family. You don't know, they didn't even let me get out of bed the first few days. Woolen cloth."

Fortunately, Zhao Zhi didn't come over a few days ago, otherwise Xiaodong would not be able to comfort her with her injury and make her happy?
This is also human nature. People who visit the sick have to express concern and worry, but those who are sick have to say something like "it's nothing" and "don't worry".

"I'll look at your head."

"It's ready." Xiaodong lifted up her hair to show her.

Zhao Zhi held her face up to the light and took a closer look: "Fortunately, no scars were left."

Zhao Zhi brought a bunch of things, everything for food and play, as if to make up for the lack of not being able to come a few days ago, so she even brought Xiaodong her favorite set of sandalwood makeup boxes.This is her birthday gift, and she has praised Xiaodong several times, but she is not willing to use it.

Xiaodong picked up the boxes one by one and looked at them. From the largest to the smallest, there were five of them packed together, one inside the other. The smallest one was only one inch square, cute and cute, and could only hold a ring or a pair of small pendants.

"I don't dare to accept this, take it back quickly."

In fact, Zhao Zhi also felt distressed, gritted her teeth and said, "No, I brought everything."

Xiaodong smiled, and clasped the smaller one in his hand: "I'll accept what you want. Hey, I just want this one. You can take those four back."

Zhao Zhi's position was not firm in the first place, but now it became more and more wavering.Xiaodong said again: "As the saying goes, etiquette is less important than friendship. Now that you have friendship, why do you need to pay more attention to courtesy? Don't you think you need to pay more attention to courtesy to make up for your lack of friendship?"

"Nonsense, my friendship is not weak." Although Zhao Zhi was talking about her nonsense, her face was already smiling, and she held the makeup box happily: "Then I can take it back?"

"Ah."

Zhao Zhi huddled together with her and whispered.

"I watched you lose weight too."

"Really?" Xiaodong touched his cheek: "I still feel that I can't eat enough these days, and I seem to have gained a little weight. Alas, I have taken a lot of medicinal soup these days, and it is always porridge and side dishes, and the birds will fade out of my mouth." coming."

Zhao Zhi burst out laughing, and then quickly covered her mouth: "Bah, bah, what's not a bird... Where did you learn that?"

Xiaodong glanced at her: "I heard someone say it by chance. Does it have any special meaning? You can explain it to me."

Zhao Zhi realized that she had slipped her tongue, and gave her a white look: "Don't take my words seriously. By the way... the year is over, and the festival is over. Are you still going back to school?"

Xiaodong was stunned for a moment: "Go back, why don't you go back."

"Actually..." Zhao Zhi scratched her ears: "It's not like that every day, I don't like to go there. Who knows how to behave? You can't do anything like painting and chess. It will come in handy. My mother told me that I won’t go there until the end of the year, and ask the master to teach me how to cook at home..."

Princess Jingjun may have been frightened by this incident.

"My father hasn't mentioned it yet."

"Oh, there is no one in your family. Your father and brother don't understand these things and can't plan for you. I think my mother is right." Zhao Zhi whispered: "Besides, summer is so hot and winter is so hot. Cold, who has the patience to get up early and be greedy every day to deal with that Mao."

"Actually, the last sentence is your truth, right?"

Zhao Zhibai glanced at her: "It was a waste of effort... Last winter was so cold and there were not enough charcoal basins, I almost got chilblains on my feet. Not to mention summer, it's stuffy and hot, so many people crowded into one room , the smell of hair oil makes people faint. Tell me, is this good for school?"

Xiaodong was startled.

Of course, Xiaodong would not enjoy the pain Zhao Zhi mentioned.

"We're not men from outside. We study for fame and fame. Ten years of hard work are just to get a wife. The things we learn now will not be useful in the future—" Zhao Zhi suddenly laughed: "But what did those men learn? The words of the sage may not be useful in the future."

She grabbed Xiaodong's hand, and Xiaodong instinctively twisted and shook it off.After dumping her, she was stunned, and Zhao Zhi was also stunned, and turned to look at her.

Oops...it's almost a conditioned reflex.

Xiaodong coughed, and changed the conversation: "Then are you sure you don't want to go?"

"That's what my mother said, she didn't just say no to going, she just said she was sick first, and then found other excuses, so she didn't go anymore."

Hong Fu came in and delivered refreshments, and said in particular: "This peach blossom cake has just been steamed, the Princess has a taste."

When she went out, Zhao Zhi squeezed a piece of cake: "How about it, are you still going?"

"Me too..." I don't want to go.

It wasn't just because of Shang Yuanye's shock, or because there were more things behind this incident that made her flinch.It was Zhao Zhi who said something that made her feel the same.

Waste of effort.

The purpose of Jiyutang is not to cultivate talented women. Enlightenment is more than enough, but there is no room for further improvement. It is purely to make connections, pass the chess class, pass the painting class, but practice the calligraphy well-this is the only thing that cannot cope Errands are perfunctory.It is clear at a glance that hard work is hard work, and no hard work means no hard work.

She also thought about learning something more useful.

—Perhaps she has begun to learn.

Qin Lie taught her self-defense in secret, and no one else knew about it.

It has to be said that Qin Lie knows how to entertain and educate. The moves he taught her, such as small grabs, were... er, ugly, and didn't require much effort. I will practice more.

Qin Lie couldn't try tricks on her hand, so he carved a human wrist and arm out of wood, and pointed out to her which joints were important and fragile, and which joints were difficult to grasp.Xiaodong was a little apprehensive about the wooden hand at the beginning, but he got used to touching it in a few days, and even knocked Qin Lie on the head with it.She felt that she didn't use much force, but she knocked loudly, which startled herself.

"Xiaodong, Xiaodong."

She came back to her senses, smiled at Zhao Zhi, and took a piece of cake as well.

"You should also think about it, and discuss it with Uncle An and Brother Zhao Lu." Zhao Zhi whispered: "My mother said that she would find me a master from the palace, and I told her that I must find a good-tempered one for me." , you can’t look for the kind of yin and yang with a cold brow and a cold face, I have to look at it comfortably.”

Xiaodong couldn't help laughing: "You have a great spectrum."
