Chapter 43
How could Zhao Chen let Aji leave with anger?
"Aji, listen to my explanation!" He pulled the person into his arms, hugged him tightly and refused to let go. Aji hated him for cheating again and again, and couldn't struggle to hold his hand tightly, and his fingernails immediately fell into it. Zhao Chen tasted this pain for the second time on her. Last time, he was furious, and this time he only hoped that she would grab it deeper and relieve her anger, so he gritted his teeth and endured, "Prick, as long as you don't leave, I can give you both hands!"
Who wants to listen to his false intentions that are only used to deceive people?
Tears surged out, not wanting the man to see it, Aji lowered his head, and the tears fell immediately and fell on the hands of the two. Her hand was holding his hands, and several blood marks were drawn on the back of his white and jade-like hands. Aji was shocked and couldn't help but let go. He thought that his good things were just to deceive her in these days, in order to make her willingly follow him, and that he was stupid and stuck in his plan day by day. When she was shy and happy, he was probably still laughing at her stupidity. Those grievances, anger, and disappointment could no longer be suppressed, and turned into tears and burst into tears.
He is a rich young master. She has uneasiness in her heart. She is afraid that the sweetness of today is just because he has not met a more beautiful girl. If he meets her in the future, he will be bored with the new and old. Now he has become the eldest son of the Marquis' Mansion, and his father has become the new prince in the court. The capital is, even if Aji has not been to the lives of those high-ranking officials and nobles, the story of his parents tells her that men will be missed by others if they are born too well.
Aji didn't know how handsome Zhao Chen's father was. In her opinion, there was no better man than Zhao Chen. If there was a noble daughter in the future, how would Zhao Chen choose? Ning's father was also a high-ranking official. She was a serious and famous lady. The marquis liked her so much. When he tried his best to marry her, he had to take a step back. She was just a village girl. Apart from her face, the maids in the marquis's mansion, such as Ning's side, Wen Mei was better than her everywhere. Zhao Chen even deceived her marriage. Apart from his reasons, wasn't it because he looked down on the Lin family? Yes, he respected his father and mother very much, but he still looked down on her. If his father had power and power, would Zhao Chen dare to hide it?
He just expected that she had no choice but to go with him after she got married. He always pretended to be gentlemanly and was grateful for his bad things, so he didn't touch her, just to let her know that he had her in his heart and was a little sincere. But in the eyes of his parents' villagers, she was already his person, and he expected that even if she didn't want to, his parents would let her go with him for her reputation, right?
However, even the most intimate things between husband and wife can be calculated by him. How much can his so-called sincerity be?
Even Aji couldn't afford to like him, let alone his family.
Aji hates Zhao Chen.
Even if Zhao Chen asked her to force her to follow him proudly on the night of the wedding, it would make her feel better than such a plan. He forced her to force her to be bitten once by a dog and asked him to divorce her. The two of them had nothing to do with each other. But now, she was moved again and liked the wrong person. Before he left, he would have to stab her in her heart...
Aji burst into tears, and could not even say a word to scold him.
Zhao Chen looked at her crying, crying like a tearful person, and cried so hard that he grabbed the quilt and covered his face, trembling constantly in his arms.
Knowing that she couldn't listen to what he said now, Zhao Chen didn't say anything, so she hugged her tightly. At first, she would struggle to resist, and slowly she just cried until it got dark. Zhao Chen listened to someone in the outside world approaching and leaving, and then looked at the dark room without lights, and felt chill all over. If she left, he would be the only one left in the room again, deserted.
"Aji..."
"open……"
The two of them spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time, followed by a long silence.
Zhao Chen didn't say anything, Aji wiped off her last tears, raised her head, and saw a lantern hanging under the eaves of the house outside. The lantern swayed in the cold wind on the winter night, and the soft light seemed even more desolate. She was stunned for a while and finally said calmly: "You asked me if I would like to go to the capital with you. I will tell you now, I don't want it. You lied to me so many times, but never asked me, which means you care a little about me. Since you care, please give me a divorce book. I am just a village girl, I just want to live a peaceful life. I am afraid of going to the Marquis' Mansion, fear of fighting at your house, and fear of being looked down upon. Even if I force myself, I will not live a peaceful life. If you really care about me, can you let me go home? Without me, you will meet a lady who is more suitable for you, and is a good match..."
"If you don't let me go, I want you. Even if you hate me for the rest of your life, I won't let you go."
Zhao Chen interrupted her, turned the person over, held her wet face, and asked her in the dark: "I lied to you, I lied to you many times, but no matter how bad I am, I just do those things just to marry you as my wife. Aji, don't talk about the difference between family members, I only ask you, how did I treat you this month, you really don't want to live with me? Don't cry, I know you have me in your heart, tell me the truth, what are you afraid of? I promise you that I only have you as a woman in this life, can you stop thinking about it?"
Aji's tears fell again. Can she believe his words? She didn't know which sentence he said was true or false. Besides, his life was so long and his identity was so high that Ning Shi couldn't guarantee that this son would be consistent. How could she believe it?
She cried pitifully, and obviously he was told to the point. Zhao Chen carried the person to his legs, lowered his head and kissed her cheek, and kissed her tears. After a month of marriage, he had already touched her through her. She was as beautiful as an orchid in the mountains and as simple as a deer just now. When he bullied her, she would be afraid of getting angry and avoid him. He grabbed her by her side and did not let her hide. She immediately softened her heart again. She had never thought too badly in her heart, and only a girl who had never experienced the sinister world would be so simple. He knew that her fear was indeed not suitable for life in the capital, but he could no longer let go of her, and could not let go of her considerate and tenderness, so he had to take her back, protect her, and teach her little by little.
"Aji, I know what you are afraid of, and people in the capital look down on you. Don't worry, when you go out as a guest, you will be like at home and in the capital, and don't change anything deliberately. If you have good people and bad people in the capital, you will make friends and look down on you. If you ignore them, there is nothing to pay attention to. If you are afraid of the Grandma Qin, don't be afraid. I will arrange it and you will know when you arrive in the capital."
Aji's tears gradually stopped, and she turned her face and said, "You need to say nothing, I won't go with you."
Zhao Chen ignored her and continued to say his own, "I know, you are most afraid that I am fond of the old and old. No matter how much I say this kind of thing, it is just empty talk. Aji, look at me, look at me, show you, go back to the capital, give me a chance to prove it. If I have another woman, no matter what the reason, I will give you my life, I... No, you will definitely feel that empty words are unreasonable, and I will not seek death. Aji, let's change one. If I touch someone else, let my mother cut off the mother-son relationship with me, so that she will never see me again. Are you satisfied with this bet? I will write down my promise to you, let my mother be a good person, if you don't believe me, do you always believe your mother's kindness?"
Aji was stunned. Zhao Chen had depended on his mother since childhood. If he was serious, the bet would be heavier than taking his life.
Even if he couldn't see clearly, Zhao Chen guessed Aji's thoughts, and a glimmer of hope suddenly surged in his heart. He immediately put the person back on the kang. He stood up and went down to the ground, "Aji, please wait, I will write it down in black and white, and take one for you to take one for your mother. So you can trust it?" As he said, he lit two lamps in succession, and went to the cabinet to flip through paper and pen without looking back.
The room suddenly lit up, and Aji's eyes were a little uncomfortable crying and closed for a while before they could adapt. Looking at the figure with his back facing her to grind writing, Aji moved his mouth, trying to tell him that she didn't have to pretend to tell him that she didn't want to be with him anyway, and she still couldn't speak. He had her in his heart, and she knew that he could hardly control himself for so many nights, but in the end he still held it back. If it were just for her face, he wouldn't have to be so wronged. He said that he would give him a chance to prove it, but in fact she also wanted to know if it was possible for her and this man to live a lifetime...
There was silence inside and outside the house, only the sound of him holding his pen and writing.
Zhao Chen quickly finished writing one, then dried the ink marks and turned to Aju, and nervously handed the paper to her: "Aju, please take a look first, I'll write another one."
Aji lowered his head, didn't look at him or answer him.
Zhao Chen put the paper in front of her and went back to continue writing the second copy.
When he picked up his pen, Aju slowly raised his eyes and looked at the words on the paper.
It's exactly the same as what he said.
Aji looked at him in a daze, unable to believe it, and could not bear to believe it. She liked him, how many times could she like him alone...
"Aji, have you finished watching it?" Zhao Chen walked over again, stood in front of the edge of the kang, and asked her softly, his heart was up and down.
Aji still lowered her head and didn't speak.
Zhao Chen looked at her trembling eyelashes and changed the newly written copy in his hand to Aji's. He said nothing and turned around and was about to leave.
"Where are you going?" Seeing that he opened the door bolt and was about to go out, Aji called out with his heart, "Are he really going to deliver it to his mother-in-law?"
That's what Zhao Chen planned. Looking back at her, he saw that she was disbelieving. He smiled and said, "I have deceived you so many times. If you don't do anything this time, you will definitely not believe me. Aji, you can keep that share and I'll send this share to my mother." After that, he was about to leave.
Aji was shocked and stood up and shouted to him: "You are not allowed to go!"
But Zhao Chen has already left with great strides.
Seeing that he was really here, Aji hurriedly put on his shoes and chased him out. Madam Jiang was about to come in and ask her what was wrong. Seeing that she was wearing only one-piece clothes, she wanted to run out, so she hurriedly pressed the person back to the kang, "What are you thinking about, put on your clothes quickly, Luyun, go and call someone to bring hot water, dinner in the kitchen is ready soon, and the young master is about to start dinner when he comes back."
Of course, Aji could not tell Madam Jiang such a private matter. She quickly put the words on the kang into her arms. She patiently followed Madam Jiang tossed and packed them all. She immediately rushed to Ning's side, hoping that Zhao Chen would just say something casually to show her. But when she arrived at the door of Ning's yard, she saw Zhao Chen coming out of the inside, without answering the umbrella that Wenmei had prepared, and walked out in the heavy snow.
The snowflakes were flying, and they could not hide the man's smiling phoenix eyes when he looked at her, and they were as gentle as before.
"Madam, let's go." Aji was panicked and turned around and was about to leave.
The couple obviously had a quarrel. Madam Jiang looked at Aji's red face, not knowing whether it was because she was on the road or something. Then she looked at the young master who was stroking over there. She turned her eyes and stuffed the handle of the umbrella into Aji's hand. She told her seriously: "Grandma, take it first, I'll go back and get the umbrella for the young master!" After that, she didn't care whether Aji had held it firmly, lowered her head and crawled out of the umbrella, and ran back quickly.
"Madam!" Aji couldn't help but want to follow him, but after walking a few steps, someone grabbed the umbrella. The next moment, the umbrella was taken over and the waist was hugged. Aji didn't want him to touch it. Zhao Chen looked around. It was dark and there was only the white snow that reflected some light. There were no people on the road. He threw the umbrella aside and directly carried Aji in his waist. "The snow on the ground is thick, I'll carry you back."
"No, let me down!" Aji was so embarrassed that he turned his head and hid out.
Zhao Chen pressed her head back to her chest, covered her with her cloak to prevent the snow from falling on her face, and whispered as he walked: "Aji, I have given the things to my mother. What should I say to you when I meet tomorrow? Don't worry, I will definitely scold me. Now, you stand with your mother, don't worry about me bullying you again, right?"
Did he really tell his mother-in-law about this?
Aji's face felt hot, but it was the creaking sound he made when he stepped on the snow that reminded her. He hadn't met a servant all the way, but he clearly wanted to carry her back to the yard, so that Madam Jiang Luyun and others could see her. How could she see people in the future?
"Let me down!" she gritted her teeth and said in a slut. This person was a scoundrel, who bullied people with her strength.
Zhao Chen's footsteps responded, Aji was delighted, but twisted the man and did not let her go. He just lowered his head and said to her through the cloak: "You promise not to be angry with me, and promise to go back to the capital with me, and I will let you go."
How could Aji not be angry? He was obviously a fraudulent marriage, but now he still wants to use such a scoundrel to force her to go with him?
"I won't go, please let me go!" Aji said angrily, but unfortunately she was worried about being heard. Her voice was extremely low, and she had no anger, and she was more like acting coquettishly to make a little sex person.
The worry in Zhao Chen's eyes was long gone, and the cold snowflakes fell on his body, and could not dispel the warmth in his chest. He never worried that she would leave when the truth was revealed, because he would not let him go. What he was worried about was that she and him ignored him. Now that she adapted to the situation, she chased her out and gave him a chance to coax her, how could he let it go?
He raised his head and continued to walk forward, "Aji, our courtyard gate is ahead, which is about a hundred steps away. I will start counting now. Before counting, you promised me to go back to Beijing with me, and I will definitely let you go, otherwise when I enter the courtyard gate, you will not let me go." After saying that, he ignored her and counted on her own.
Aji was anxious, but no matter whether she scolded him in a low voice or begged him softly, Zhao Chen would not let him go. Hearing that he had counted to ninety, Aji's heart was raised and he was almost crying anxiously. He annoyed that he had no choice but to have no choice, "Stop, stop!"
Zhao Chen was as she wished, "Have you promised me?"
Aji clenched his chest and his heart was full of twists and turns. After a long time, he said, "Are you really not afraid of others laughing at you to marry a peasant girl?"
"I'm just afraid you're sulking after hearing the gossip." Zhao Chen replied immediately, "Aji, I like you, you like me, we two have lived with us, you don't have to take everything else to heart. Issue, as long as I can stand at a high place, naturally no one dares to laugh at you. Aji, you dare to believe me once, will I stand at a high place on the day? Do you dare to walk with me?"
In the snow and ice, he asked her if she dared to walk with him, and walked the road she had never heard of, and didn't know where it was ahead.
Aji's tears flowed out again, buried in his chest and choked: "I'm afraid you don't want me halfway..."
He was both civil and military, and she had a good appearance. She had no idea about anything else, and she couldn't even tell whether the marquis was an official or a title. He used his gentleness and consideration to deceive her heart, making her want to follow him, and she was reluctant to follow him, for that little extravagant hope. But she was afraid that he would hate her after walking a few steps and wanted her.
She cried out, Zhao Chen hugged her tightly, lowered his head and said to her, "You are the wife I have tried my best to marry. I don't want anything. Aji, I don't want anything. I don't want you. Aji, I don't have much in my heart. Apart from my mother, you are the only woman. You have given birth to a root in my place, and I can't walk on my own. Don't worry, I have used up all the bad marriages for you before, and I will only treat you well in the future."
Aji didn't say anything, at least at this moment, she was willing to believe him.
Zhao Chen smiled and continued to walk forward. Aji was stunned for a moment before reacting, lifting up his cloak and urging him: "What are you doing? If you say I promise you, you will put me down!"
Zhao Chen stepped into the yard and lowered his head to smile at her: "The snow on the ground is thick, I'm afraid you will get cold."
"you……"
Zhao Chenfei quickly kissed the girl on the face and covered her cloak, "Don't be angry, this is not bullying you, it is because of your feelings for you. Others will only envy me for being kind to you and will not laugh at you."
Aji grabbed him hard, but in the end he had to bury him in his arms and pretend to be dead.
Zhao Chen hugged his wife Chunfeng and walked into the house, asking Madam Jiang to ask the kitchen to put dinner on immediately. After entering the house, she gently placed Aji on the kang. Thinking that a little maid would come in to prepare food in a while, Aji didn't dare to see anyone, and lying on the kang to pretend to be asleep. Zhao Chen didn't make trouble for her. She first put the cloak on her body on the screen, then untied her own, then sat on the kang, took off her boots, and called someone to come in to clean up.
Lu Yun and Cuiyu walked in together, their eyes were properly and did not look around. Lu Yun held two cloaks, Cuiyu took her boots and quietly retreated out.
Zhao Chen sat beside Aji and gently stroked her back. When the little maids put the supper on and left, he immediately carried the girl who was pretending to be asleep on her legs and rubbed her to the kang table.
It was cold, and the kitchen made dumplings, celery and meat filling, and a bowl of black sesame dumplings.
"Stop being angry, eat dumplings." Zhao Chen put down his chopsticks, lowered his head and kissed the girl who hid in his arms and refused to see anyone.
Aji didn't want to pay attention to him at all, but he was not as strong as others. He was kissed hard before letting go. She closed her eyes and gasped. Zhao Chen loosened his collar and rolled his throat. Fortunately, he had to endure it for so long and had some experience. He hurriedly forced himself to think about something else. After calming down, he personally fed Aji for dinner. A dumpling was clipped in half, half of him, and at first Aji refused to let him feed him. He was threatened to kiss him, so he had to close his eyes and open his mouth, but the chopsticks were still put down and kissed him again.
After washing up, Aji first got into the quilt, Zhao Chen then came in, turned off the lights and went onto the kang, and hugged the person in his arms and spoke.
"Aji, my mother said we will leave for the eighth day of the lunar month and go back to the capital for the New Year. There are only six days left. Let's go back to your house tomorrow. I will go to apologize to my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Six days?
Even though she was willing to leave with him, Aji still didn't expect that she would set off so soon, so she couldn't help but clench his arm: "Can't it be late?" She really couldn't bear to go back when she would come back.
Zhao Chen kissed her guilt and heartbrokenly: "Aji, I have already felt wronged by not being able to marry you in the capital. Now, the banquets between the various governments are coming and going around the Chinese New Year. It is a good time to introduce you to everyone, so that they can know that you are my wife. Don't be nervous. It will take more than half a month to go to the capital. On the way, I will tell you about the situation there and some things that must be paid attention to. When I arrive at the Marquis' Mansion, I will help you with my mother and Madam Jiang. There will be no accident."
Aji was not in the mood to think about the capital now. She was full of family members and cried against his chest: "You have to hide the marriage. My father and mother must be very angry. I tell you, you don't need to expect me to help you. If my father doesn't want me to follow you, I won't leave."
This is obviously anger, but he made a mistake first, so Zhao Chen naturally would not make any more excuses. He hugged the person tightly to comfort him: "Don't cry or cry, I lied to their baby daughter, it's all right for my father-in-law to beat me, tomorrow you don't have to do anything, all for me. Aji, you don't have to worry too much, I will discuss with my father-in-law. If things go well, my father-in-law and the others will move to the capital next year, so that you can often go over and reunite with them." Without any preparation, how dare he lie? Besides, he couldn't bear to let his wife leave his hometown and stay alone.
"Father moved to the capital?" Aji's tears stopped immediately, and she was filled with surprise and incredible.
"Yes." Zhao Chen lowered his head and muttered in her ear for a while, and finally said, "If my father-in-law supports you, I don't have the courage to bully you anymore, right?"
To be continued...
