Chapter 53
Old Mrs. Qi is very good at speaking, “Haha, I wonder when I mention this, you see, you usually see that the two children meet like brothers and sisters. A Jin regards Qi Jing as her brother, and Qi Jing treats her as her sister, and occasionally becomes angry A Jin, we can’t see anything at all.
Now, when I came back yesterday, I heard that someone wanted to marry his daughter. The boy finally got anxious and said that he just wanted to marry A Jin."
"But A Jin is still young..." Jiang was not ready to marry his daughter, so he couldn't help but make excuses to refuse.
"Well, aunt knows that you can't bear to leave A Jin, don't worry, if you and Xu You look down on him, let's make the marriage first and wait until A Jin gets married again in the fifteenth. If Qi Jing will go well at that time, there will be an errand, and there will be a job."
Of course, Old Mrs. Qi came prepared.
Seeing that Jiang was still hesitant, she didn't urge her. She took out the Geng Tie from her sleeve and put it on the table. She stood up and said, "Don't rush to reply to me. We have a good discussion with Xu You these two days. It's not too late to reply to me when Brother Xi captured Zhou the day.
OK, then I'll leave first."
Jiang went out to see her off. When he came back, he saw his daughter lowering her head to coax her younger brother in her arms. She could still see a little childishness on her face, but she had really grown up.
She felt very uncomfortable. Her daughter was only twelve years old and was targeted.
At night, Jiang was reluctant to leave in her daughter's house, so Xu You came to pick her up.
After returning to the house, Jiang told her husband about this. After hearing this, Xu You said hatefully: "I had long seen that Qi Jing had bad intentions about A Jin, but he was too good at pretending at that time. I saw that he was young, so I didn't think about that!"
How old was my daughter then!
"Then do you think we agree?"
Jiang had no idea.
It is logical that their daughter is the one who is a leader in marrying into the Qi family, and the Qi family knows the truth and can't pick out the stinger.
But when she thought that her daughter was almost from someone else's family after the engagement, she couldn't help but want to refuse.
Xu You was silent and said after a long time: "Qi Jing calmed down when something happened, and he was calm at a young age. At least he would not make big mistakes in the future.
I will stay in the capital after next spring for eighteen years. A Jin will be with him and be close to us."
"Did you agree?"
Jiang was very surprised. She just heard that he gritted his teeth, and she thought Xu You didn't want to.
Xu You kissed her forehead and said softly: "I just tell you my thoughts. You have to decide on A Jin's marriage.
Or, go and ask A Jin?
At her age, she knows something."
Jiang nodded, closed his eyes, but fell asleep in the middle of the night.
The next day, when Xu You went to the study, she called her daughter to check on her.
Xu Jin pretended not to know anything and embroidered the lotus flowers obediently until her mother asked her what she thought of Qi Jing. She shook her hand and lowered her head and asked, "What are you asking about this?"
Jiang looked at his daughter in disbelief. This girl actually blushed?
She hasn't revealed the Qi family's proposal for marriage yet!
After all, he was a veteran. Jiang realized after thinking about it again. His daughter probably had a crush on Qi Jing!
"When did you like Qi Jing?"
She took away what was in her daughter's hand and asked in a low voice.
"I didn't say I like him!"
Of course Xu Jin would not admit it and refute it with his head raised.
She was naughty since childhood. In order not to be taught by her parents, she often lies and knows how to deceive her elders.
But this time it was not possible. After looking at her mother for a moment, she felt guilty and lowered her head and said, "I just liked it this year. That time I went outside to pick up Dabai. Seeing him riding on the horse, I suddenly liked it..."
"Does he know?"
Jiang asked suspiciously.
Xu Jin shook his head, "I won't let him know, so I can save him from laughing at me."
By the way, mom, why are you asking this?"
After a brief panic, Xu Jin had already thought about how to deal with his mother's doubts, and raised his head and asked naively.
Jiang was half-believing and half-doubted, staring at his daughter's eyes: "Yesterday Qi Jing asked his grandmother to come and propose marriage."
"real?"
Xu Jin was surprised and happy, and then he blushed and threw himself into his mother's arms, asking embarrassedly: "Mom, does Qi Jing come to propose marriage, does it mean that he likes me too?"
She looks like a naive little girl.
"Silly, I don't like you what he is doing when he proposes a marriage."
Jiang hugged her daughter's still thin body and sighed.
No matter what, judging from my daughter's appearance, this marriage will be settled.
Shortly after Xi Ge'er arrested Zhou, the Qi family invited a matchmaker to come to the door and say hello.
After Nacai asked for his name, he was scheduled to be hired in May of the following year.
During the three months from May to July, Qi Jing regretted it. He had known that Jiang would be so focused on his daughter, so he sent a maid next to him to serve Xu Jin, and he would not give the two a chance to meet. He would rather propose marriage later.
Seeing that he was about to go to Fucheng to prepare for the rural examination in a few days, Qi Jing stood under the walls of the two houses, and was restless and always felt that if he couldn't see her before leaving, he would probably be really distracted during the exam?
When night fell, Qi Jing secretly jumped onto the wall.
.
Qi Jing's first night visit to the boudoir ended in failure.
It’s not a bad thing about Dabai. Dabai was originally willing to get close to it. Later, when he was hunting, Qi Jing and Dabai also developed a deep understanding. He heard his footsteps in the middle of the night, Dabai would not scream at all.
Qi Jing successfully climbed over the backyard door and found Xu Jin's yard. Even the yard door was turned in, but he was defeated in front of the door inside.
The front door is inserted, and he will definitely alarm the maid who is sleeping in the next room when he pried in.
When climbing the window, she had to open the window from inside, but now it was late at night, and he didn't dare to call her rashly. The maid heard her report back to her parents, and Qi Jing was afraid that the marriage would be ruined.
He stood quietly against the wall for a while, hoping that Dabai would wake her up.
But no matter how smart Dabai was, he was not as smart as to guess his purpose. That stupid dog, maybe he thought he was just here to take a look.
It doesn't care how long he waits outside, it only puts the master first in everything.
It's okay, it will definitely not disturb the little girl's sleep.
Qi Jing slipped home in the dark.
As soon as he left, Dabai, who looked up at the window, put his head on the ground again and slowly closed his eyes.
On the second day, Qi Jing was preparing to take Dabai to hunt on the mountain.
After the engagement, Old Mrs. Qi told him not to go in directly as usual when he went to the Xu family, and he had to let the concierge communicate with each other first, so he waited outside.
Xu You heard about it inside, and went to his daughter's yard to get Dabai, but he didn't even go out, and just asked Dabai to go to find Qi Jing by himself.
Looking at Dabai running out alone, Qi Jing had been accustomed to it, but this time there was a little more irony in his eyes.
Don't let him see her?
Wait.
After wandering around the mountains with Uncle Pang for a long time, Qi Jing threw his anger on the prey, and the arrows were shot without any slightest.
After returning in the afternoon, he didn't get off the horse. When he saw Dabai entering the Xu family, he went home alone.
When Dabai returned to his master's house, Xu Jin was reading the book boredly on the kang. When she heard the movement, she used to check whether Dabai was injured. After the examination, she was about to continue reading the book. Dabai straightened up and put his front paws on the edge of the kang.
Xu Jin thought Dabai wanted to play with her, so he touched its neck. After touching it, he finally found that Dabai wanted her to see its left front leg.
She held its claws curiously, looked carefully, and suddenly found a white bamboo tube tied to the snow-white hair.
Xu Jin's heart beat faster and immediately glanced outside, making sure that the two maids would not come in. She quickly took off the bamboo tube and hid in the kang to peek.
"Tonight, open the window."
The familiar handwriting came into view, and the domineering aura that could not be refused came to her, making her feel panicked. Xu Jin seemed to see Qi Jing's deep eyes.
Xu Jin quietly burned the note and sat on the kang, hesitating nervously.
She really missed him without opening the window. Since she got married, she has never left the house and has never seen him.
It was connected with the month he went to the hospital for the previous month. For more than four months, she only saw him twice, but she couldn't speak well. She asked him what the city looked like, what he had taken during the exam, and how he got the scores in each item.
Open the window... Which good girl would meet a man in the middle of the night? Even if she is a lover, that's not right. What should I do if someone finds out?
To be honest, Xu Jin was more afraid of being confused than expectation, and was afraid that Qi Jing would be caught by his family, but time didn't wait for anyone, and the sky gradually became dark.
After returning from supper with his parents and brothers, Xu Jin became more and more uneasy.
She looked out.
Tonight it was Yuzhu's watch. Yuzhu was the maid next to her mother. She gave her her name and even changed her name.
Unlike Baozhu, who is easily at her mercy, Yuzhu, who is two years older than her, is more like a big sister. What's wrong with Xu Jin? Yuzhu will remind her softly.
Of course, if Xu Jin insisted on seeing him, Yuzhu would never dare to refuse to follow him, but Xu Jin could not do such an unreasonable thing, and she would not have the confidence to do it.
It’s like going to a private meeting with Qi Jing in the backyard. If she insists on sending Yuzhu away, isn’t this just telling others what shameful things she is going to do?
She could only be obedient, like a truly sensible girl.
Thinking of this, Xu Jin was a little dissatisfied again. Why did she have to go out and go out after getting engaged?
This made her feel a little more excited.
Soon, the sound of Yuzhu resting came from outside. Xu Jin was lying in the quilt and waiting anxiously, waiting for Dabai to remind her that Qi Jing was coming.
The room was pitch black, and only vague shadows were seen. The night was so quiet again, Xu Jin was sleepy unknowingly. Then, when she was asleep in a daze, Dabai woke her up with his front paws.
Xu Jin suddenly woke up, his heartbeat as if he was drumming.
When she knew Qi Jing was coming, she quietly went downstairs, wearing sun-during clothes.
She touched Dabai's head, let it guard at the door of the house to alert Yuzhu to wake up, and then moved to the window with her breath.
