Chapter 273

Yaqi didn't know when she figured it out.

Maybe it's...every time she was looking forward to him coming to her, and every time he would bring medicine to heal the scars on his face.Even if she covered it with powder, he could still see it at a glance.

In fact, the trace was already very faint, just a little bit, and if you didn't stare at her face carefully, you wouldn't notice it.

Although Yaqi has never been a person who cares about appearance very much.But she is still pretty. There were boys who secretly picked fruit for her when she was a child, and there were also children who wrote sour poems.

But she just likes him.

Mr. Liu... was actually a shy boy when he was young.Sometimes she is not so gregarious, but she always looks at her secretly and laughs.

Their childhood sweethearts began in one evening.

The sunset that night was fiery red, and the houses in the distance reflected were all red.She accidentally fell on the edge of a mud pit, and he was the one who was carried back by her.

They were about the same age, and boys and girls were about the same size when they were young.

It is still difficult for him to carry a girl who is about the same weight as himself.But after a while, his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.

"Xiao Liu..."

Yaqi naturally noticed the beads of sweat on his forehead.Thinking of the other children calling him that, Yaqi also called him that.

"You don't have to carry me. In fact, it's the same if you support me, so you won't be so tired."

She was barely able to walk.

"Different."

There was a flash of determination in Mr. Liu's eyes, and he said seriously: "I am a boy, I should protect you. I am different from those who only know how to pick fruit and write things for you."

Yaqi was silent at that time, and a different kind of warmth flashed in her heart.

Some of the boys next to her are nice to her, and she actually knows it.But...she actually didn't feel anything.After all... everyone is just playmates with each other.

It's just... What she said now made her feel a little different.

Yaqi thought and thought, and said, "Xiao Liu, this is the first time I've heard you talk so much. Hmm... you should play with everyone more in the future."

"It's okay, I'll take you with me."

Jackie knew it.

Little Liu Si is gentle, but sometimes he is not courageous enough, so he just stays silently aside.But it doesn't matter, he will have her in the future.

...

Yaqi recalled the past, and for some reason, the memory that always felt a little vague in the past became clear again at this moment.

But she couldn't fully remember when she started not expecting him so strongly.The future she imagined seemed to be okay without him.

Maybe...from the disappointment again and again.

Yinzhen looked at Yaqi who was silently kneeling on the ground seriously for a long time.

"No matter what your choice is, I will respect your choice. You are her best friend, and I will not keep you bound because of rules."

Yinzhen thought for a while, and said: "However. In my opinion, just like what you said, he is not your beloved. I have also read the list of talents in the Beijing Children's Examination a few days ago."

"I knew he was selected as a scholar, and I specially asked someone to transfer the article to read it, and it was considered stable."

"Ah."

Yaqi responded lightly.She actually knew about this.

She... once asked Xiao Shunzi privately to inquire about it.Rao has made a decision in his heart, but he still can't help but want to know what choice he will make.

"He's at the gate of the house now."

Yinzhen looked at the somewhat silent look, and said, "If you want to see him, now..."

"Your maidservant knows." Yaqi raised her head, looked at Yinzhen seriously, and said, "It's just... since we decided to part with each other, we won't be so entangled."

"But there are some things that I still need to clarify with him."

Anyway... don't go to the door of the fourth elder brother's house like this in the future.Not only did he lose face, but it also ruined the reputation of Si Age's Mansion.

"Well, you go."

After Yinzhen finished giving his instructions, he asked Su Peisheng to go out with Yaqi, and then he called Xiao Shunzi to follow him to the dining hall to prepare dinner.

Su Peisheng felt bitter.

Why is it that he is the one who suffers every time this kind of thing happens?

At the gate of Si Age's mansion, Mr. Liu still refused to leave.He first begged the two guards at the door to help him pass the message, but later seeing that the guards refused, he simply lingered and refused to leave.

A posture...pretending to yell at the gate of Si Age's mansion.

It's a pity that before he opened his mouth to yell, he was directly subdued by the two guards guarding the door and fell to the ground.

"This is the fourth elder brother's mansion, so you won't be allowed to be presumptuous."

The guard held down Mr. Liu and said, "If you are sensible, then hurry up and leave."

Although they chatted with Mr. Liu this day, it was speculative.But to be honest, before serious business, they still know what to do.

The fourth elder brother understood the meaning very well, and would not betroth Miss Yaqi to him.I don't know why this person is still stalking.

Could it be that the fourth elder brother has a too good temper?Or do you think that in front of the gate of the royal elder brother's mansion, you can play naughty at will?

"Mmmmmmmm!"

Mr. Liu was still struggling to speak.It's a pity that he was pressed to the ground, and his mouth was full of dust.

Yaqi and Su Peisheng came out at this time.

"Let him go." Su Peisheng said lightly, and the two guards relaxed their hands slightly after hearing this.

Yaqi stepped over the stairs and walked down slowly. When she reached Mr. Liu, she looked at him seriously and said, "Go back. We... stop here."

Mr. Liu, who got up and was patting the dirt on his body, was stunned.Staring blankly at Yaqi, she could hardly believe her ears.

"So far?"

Mr. Liu muttered to himself, thinking about what the words meant for a long time, then stretched out his hand to grab Yaqi's arm, and asked, "Does the fourth elder brother disagree?"

"This is a matter between us, why does he stop it like this? Yaqi, if you are persecuted, I..."

"What are you?"

Yaqi asked back: "Can you still go to Yingtian Mansion to report to the officials? The palace maids have to stay in the palace until they are 25 years old before they can leave the palace. This is also a palace rule, so what can you say?"

"Besides, this time, it's not that the fourth elder brother refused. It's that I... don't want to entangle with you anymore. In fact, your mother-in-law also disapproves of the matter between me and you, doesn't she?"

"No, no."

Mr. Liu shook his head hastily, and said: "I only came here today after I persuaded her. You know, my mother-in-law has always liked you!"

But Yaqi bowed her head silently, tears streaming from her eyes.

"No. I heard it when I went home on the New Year's Day."
