Fast time travel: Veteran Green Tea is showing off his acting skills again

Chapter 124 The group pets her with a little sweet baby 19
Zhong Xiao's voice was weak, and he said a little tiredly: "I hope so."

The two were relatively silent, and Zhong Xiao gradually fell asleep.

After all, men and women are different, and Xia Ling had no other place to live, so he nestled at the foot of the wall, leaning his head against the wall, and fell asleep drowsily.

In the dream, she seemed to be in a furnace, and the surroundings were extremely hot.

Waking up with a start, Zhong Xiao's face was red, and the word "Shu Lan" kept muttering in his mouth.

It burned.

Xia Ling retracted the hand that was placed on Zhong Xiao's head to test the temperature, went downstairs to fetch a basin of water, threw a pitcher towel, and placed it on Zhong Xiao's head.

He wiped his body with a handkerchief again, hoping that his fever would subside as soon as possible.

This care lasted until dawn.

Xia Ling was in a daze, and hadn't had a full sleep in three days.

If the task is not completed, I am afraid that I will die suddenly.

In a daze, she held the veil in her hand, sat beside him, leaned against the wall and fell asleep.

Zhong Xiao, whose fever had subsided, slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was a basin of water next to his hand, and then turned his head to see Xia Ling's tired face immersed in a dream.

Zhong Xiao felt a little guilty for causing this girl a lot of trouble for no reason.

He sat up with difficulty, put on his clothes, took off his money bag, put it on the table, and left quietly.

When Xia Ling woke up, Zhong Xiao had disappeared from the room.

Only a purse full of silver.

Xia Ling stuffed his money bag, thinking that it would be okay for him to leave, and we will see each other again.

But I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.

When the shop was busy in the afternoon, Zhong Lou went to the shop to help, and he kept busy all afternoon, and did not close the shop until it was getting dark.

Xia Ling, who was packing up and closing the day, turned to look at Zhong Lou standing behind him, hesitant to speak, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. But you are still busy with your work, you don't have to always come to me to help, I will take care of it myself." Gotta come here.”

"It's okay. I don't have anything to do." Zhonglou strode up to her side and helped her clean up. Before he could get to the point, his face turned red, "Actually, I have something to ask for your help."

Xia Ling responded vaguely: "Huh?"

"The day after tomorrow is Lin Lin's birthday, and the family will celebrate her birthday." Zhong Lou licked his dry lips, "Celebration is not just a birthday celebration. There is a tradition in Fengyuan, that is, the sons of each family will give her a birthday party before the banquet." Those young ladies sent invitations, asking them to be my company..."

This is, he wants to ask himself to be his female companion.

Xia Ling knew it well, but still pretended not to understand, and continued to tidy up: "That's it. Mr. Zhong wants me to send invitations for the young lady whom you like?"

"that is not what I meant."

Zhong Lou anxiously walked around from her left side to her right side.

He looked at her focused face, his heart sank, and he said bluntly: "I want to invite Miss Linger to accompany me to the banquet together."

Xia Ling, who was wiping the table, paused for a moment, and Zhonglou's heart also paused.

I saw her slowly raising her eyes, with a slight smile lingering in her beautiful eyes, "Mr. Zhong, aren't you joking? I am not a girl, but a woman who has given birth to a child. Besides, I am not from a high family, and Not a nobleman. If you bring me, a village woman who has a child, to the banquet, won't you become the laughing stock of Feng Yuan?"

When Zhong Lou was in a hurry, he didn't care about other things. He put his hands on Xia Ling's shoulders, and looked at her and began to explain his appreciation: "So what if you have had a child? So what if you are not a nobleman? You don't know that it is better than those proud daughters." How many times. You are talented and capable. You are not greedy for wealth and wealth. You have an air of arrogance and beauty. Thousands of women in the world can’t find you like you. They don’t understand, so tell them to laugh .When did I care what others think? As long as you agree, I will not be afraid of anything."

Xia Ling looked at the urgency in his eyes, pursed his lips, and said slowly and decisively: "I'm sorry. If I misunderstood something, it's my fault. I only treat you as an acquaintance, and there is no half-hearted friendship." .”

The hands on her shoulders slowly dropped.

In an instant, Zhong Lou was like an eggplant beaten by frost, losing all energy.

He still refused to give up and asked: "Am I not good enough?"

"No. The young master is a good man with a kind heart and a good temper. If the young master does not dislike him, I would like to make friends with the young master. You know that the little bun is only related to me. The general will always marry Miss Zhong's family and have children of their own. If I were with someone else again, that little bun would have no home in this world. I promised him that I would not remarry, there is no reason for a mother to break her promise."

Xia Ling paused, and continued: "I said this does not mean that I am powerless to you, I have no other thoughts on you, I just want to tell you, no matter where you talk about it, there is absolutely nothing. possible."

"I know."

The four words are like bitter water lingering on the tip of Zhonglou's tongue, which cannot fade away for a long time.

"One post per person, my post has your name written on it." Zhong Lou took out the post that was shining with gold leaf in his arms, and slowly put it on the table, "If you really don't want to, I won't force it." .Only when I had a daydream, left and right were just going to the banquet alone, with my reputation, I don’t care about their jokes.”

He turned and left, his back revealing his loneliness and pitifulness.

She couldn't pass up this opportunity.

But the task only said to make her a group favorite, and didn't say that she had to have feelings with others.

Although Zhonglou said that he had a bad reputation, after getting in touch with him these days, she felt that Zhonglou was just a innocent and harmless person, and she didn't want to hurt him, so it's better to say some things as soon as possible.

She picked up the invitation and shouted to Zhonglou's back: "I can accompany you to the banquet, but it is purely a favor among friends. You have helped me a lot, and I have no reason to refuse. I just want to make everything clear, don't Let the young master be happy."

Zhong Lou turned around, the surprise and joy on his face couldn't be concealed, but he still couldn't believe it and asked, "Are you really willing to come?"

"Hmm. But I've already said..."

"I know. From now on, you and I will be friends, bosom friends, and nothing else."

Weird.

Zhonglou's feet fluttered happily.

He knew that Xia Ling had too many unspeakable shackles, but people's hearts were full of flesh. As long as he treated her sincerely, one day, she would be moved.

Watching Zhonglou leave happily.

Xia Ling twitched the corner of her mouth, a little embarrassed.

Are you sure he understood?
On the second day, Zhonglou did not come.

Xia Ling thought that maybe he really understood what he said, and his feelings were not so deep, so it was not like he was going to die if he was rejected.

Just breathed a sigh of relief.

A gorgeous carriage arrived at the door.

The boys were busy moving the huge wooden box into the shop.

When Xia Ling was in a daze, Zhonglou suddenly got out of the carriage, and the two laughed happily like idiots: "Here are all the clothes I bought for you. You can just choose one for the banquet, You can keep the rest, it can be regarded as a gift from you and me!"
