Xu Jin took Qi Heng's note and stared blankly. It took him a while to come back to his senses.

Compared with Qi Heng and Cui Xiao, she and Qi Jing really have to be much smoother.

"Second brother, is Xiaoxiao in her room?"

Xu Jin carried Brother Xi into Cui's house. Seeing Cui Lu holding a piece of silk cloth in his hand and asking the housekeeper for the matter, he asked casually.

"A Jin is here."

Cui Lu smiled at her, said a few words to tell the housekeeper to leave, and then walked towards Xu Jin and his brother.

"Here, come here and hug Brother Xi.

You will set off in a few days. I will meet again next time. Brother Xi is probably already grown up."

When I arrived, I reached out to pick up Brother Xi.

"Second brother hugs."

Brother Xi did not recognize his child, and went to Cui Lu's arms obediently, then looked down at the auspicious cloud-shaped jade pendant on Cui Lu's waist.

This brother is the best, and he often gives him fun things, which Brother Xi remembers.

"Brother Xi likes this?"

When Cui Lu saw this, he held someone in one hand and took off the jade pendant with the other.

"Second brother, stop giving it to him, how many good things have you given him!"

Xu Jin snatched his brother back before Brother Xi reached out to pick him up, and avoided him.

Brother Xi looked at his sister, and saw that his sister glared at him, immediately shook his head at Cui Lu, saying that he didn't want it anymore.

Cui Lu insisted on giving it to him, but this time he didn't wait for Xu Jin to refuse. Brother Xi turned his head and hid back, and refused to do so.

Cui Lu had to put it away. When he looked up, he saw Xu Jin smiling. He suddenly bounced Xu Jin's head and said, "How many good things did you cheat from me when you were a child? Now it's Brother Xi'er's turn, you know how to be polite?

I think you are just jealous of Brother Xi’er being more interested in you.

He is both cunning and scrupulous, I really don’t know where Qi Jing likes you.”

"It hurts, my second brother knows to bully me!"

Xu Jin pretended to cry out in pain, and Brother Xi quickly blew on his sister a few times and rubbed her, which made Xu Jin and Cui Lu laugh together.

"Then let me keep busy, I'll go find Xiaoxiao."

"Wait," Cui Lu called her and said with a smile: "You will probably be in the capital as soon as you leave. If you still remember your second brother in the future, please remind Qi Jing to send us a post.

My elder brother probably won’t be able to go there. It’s inconvenient for Xiaoxiao to go out. My second brother is idle, so he can go to the capital to ask for a wedding wine."

Xu Jin burst into tears and handed Brother Xi to Yuzhu behind her to hug her. She couldn't help but hug Cui Lu, buried her in his chest and cried: "I will never forget, my second brother will always be A Jin's good second brother. When I get married, you must come and you have to give me a big gift. If I give you a gentle, I won't give you a drink!"

"Haha, I'll go to the Qi family to have a drink, and you don't have to give me some alcohol. Can you make the decision before you enter that kid's house?

OK OK OK Don’t cry, get up quickly, if you hold it down and see it when Qi Jing sees me, I really can’t drink anymore.”

Cui Lu patted the little girl on the shoulder, straightened her, looked down at her, and his voice became softer: "I've been engaged, I've been a big girl. It's okay here, but there are many rules in the capital. You must be more sensible after the past. Don't make people laugh at us from a small place.

OK, my second brother is really busy, you go in and find Xiaoxiao.”

"Um."

Xu Jin was a little embarrassed now, lowered his head and wiped his eyes. When Cui Lu walked away, she looked at the other person's back for a while and then took back her brother with a confused face and continued walking in.

Cui Xiao was sitting on the kang embroidering things. When she heard the voice of her friends outside, she quickly hid the handkerchief that was about to be embroidered. After hiding it, Xu Jin also brought his younger brother in.

Cui Xiao smiled when she saw Brother Xi, moved to the edge of the kang and took Brother Xi over, kissing his little face: "Does Brother Xi miss his sister?"

"think."

Brother Xi replied obediently and turned his head to find the tiger head rest of Sister Cui’s house.

Because Xu Jin often came over with his younger brother, sometimes the two little girls talked, and Brother Xi became sleepy while playing, so Cui Xiao sewed him a small pillow.

Now seeing Brother Xi looking for him, she smiled and put the child down, pointed to the side of the quilt shop, and asked him to find him by himself. When Brother Xi grinned, she turned around and called Xu Jin to sit on the kang.

"How is it, are you packing up?"

The maid brought the snacks over, and Cui Xiao pinched a small piece of hawthorn cake and asked with a relaxed look.

"It's almost done," Xu Jin had cried, not as relaxed as Cui Xiao. He ordered Yuzhu and Cui Xiao's maid to go outside to guard. She approached Cui Xiao and asked her puzzledly: "My mother stared at me recently. I can't help you meet Qi Heng. Your sister-in-law is very strict and you don't allow you to go out easily.

Xiaoxiao, I think you don’t care at all?

You don’t know, Qi Heng lost weight after returning from the exam, and now he has a lot of burnt mouth.”

Cui Xiao was in the mood to eat, put down her things, lowered her head and wiped her hands, "How come she doesn't care?

But what do I think is useful?

Should he go or leave? Can I let him stay?

Besides, meeting is useless. It is not certain whether he can come back in the future. If he doesn’t come back, it doesn’t matter if he sees it more often and rarely sees it now.”

She lowered her head, Xu Jin couldn't see what kind of emotions she had in her eyes, and asked tentatively: "Then he really won't come back, what should you do?"

Cui Xiao smiled bitterly, "My brother and sister-in-law are very nice to me, they will find me a good family."

"What should Qi Heng do?"

Xu Jin took out the note from his cuff and handed it over, urging her to look at it immediately.

The small note was not written many words, and Cui Xiao finished reading it for a few seconds and was stunned.

Xu Jin felt distressed, held her hand, and whispered: "Xiaoxiao, don't worry, I think Qi Heng is sincere to you. Since he begged you to wait for him, he also said that he would come to your house to propose marriage in three years, then he would definitely do it.

Xiaoxiao, will you wait for him?

The eldest brother and the second brother are so kind to you. As long as you don’t want to, they won’t force you to get married.”

Cui Xiao stared at the note, and the handwriting on it was very familiar, like the words written on the note that Qi Heng stuffed it into her hand when he stopped her that year, but the pen tip was stronger.

"Well, I will wait. If you are convenient, tell him for me and say I will wait for him for three years.

Three years later, I will be very happy when he comes. If he doesn't come, I won't blame him."

As if he knew what Xu Jin was going to say, Cui Xiao looked up and interrupted Xu Jin, "A Jin, stop talking, just pass the message for me."

Xu Jin is so happy that she won't understand even if she explains it.

Cui Xiao likes Qi Heng very much and believes that Qi Heng is in love with her at this moment, but Cui Xiao knows that there is not so smooth between her and Qi Heng.

She just needs to wait for him, but Qi Heng has to do a lot, and he is very likely to fail in the end.

So even if Qi Heng breaks the appointment in the future and marrys others, she won’t blame him. The only thing she wants to blame is that she can only blame... Scholars, farmers, industrialists and commerce.

"Xiao Xiao..."

"A Jin, please go back first, I want to stay by myself for a while."

Cui Xiao put away the notes and turned around and said.

In this way, Xu Jin couldn't find any words of comfort, and even Cui Xiao didn't dare to believe Qi Heng completely. How could she, an outsider, be sure?

"Then I'll come to play with you tomorrow."

Knowing that Cui Xiao must be feeling bad now, Xu Jin called Xi Ge'er to her side, looked at her good sister who was still facing her back, and left in a low mood. When he went home, he asked Dabai to help him pass a note to Qi Heng. This time, he did not reply.

Time passes day by day, and friends from friends come one after another to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Xu Jin received the four-season veil embroidered by Cui Xiao himself, and she also gave Cui Xiao the best ones she embroidered.

Apart from this, there is no other way to express the reluctance in my heart.

On the day of departure, the Cui family came out to see them off.

Xu Jin sat in the carriage, poked his head out to look at the Cui family, his house, the street he had been familiar with since childhood, and watched the carriage gradually drove out of Donghu Town through the familiar market.

She still looked back and suddenly felt reluctant to leave.

From then on, she will leave this familiar town and go to a prosperous place she has only heard of but never seen before.

.

Donghu Town is five or six days away from the Beijing city to whip up the horse. Everyone is slowly riding in a carriage, and it will take a lot longer.

After the initial reluctance, Xu Jin, who was heading back to the far door, began to be attracted by what he saw along the road, but soon, she became depressed again.

Because the carriage was bumpy, she was stumbled for several days in a row. Her butt felt uncomfortable, and the road suddenly became boring and tired.

She secretly lifted the curtain of the car and looked at Qi Jing, who was riding a horse in front of her enviously.

"Don't look around."

Jiang noticed her daughter's little movements, quickly patted her hand off, frowned and warned.

Xu Jin shrank his head in disappointment, bored, turned around and touched his younger brother who was sleeping soundly in his mother's arms.

It’s better for Brother Xi. She wakes up and plays. She continues to sleep when she is tired of playing. She doesn’t look like her. She can’t even stretch her legs even if she wants to sleep.

Seeing how much suffering his daughter was suffering, Jiang comforted her softly: "Hold on, you'll be able to arrive in the capital in three days."

In fact, she was also uncomfortable in sitting there, but she had to suffer this bumpy journey sooner or later. Now she has her husband and neighbors on the same journey, which is both at ease and can help each other.
