The country is the matchmaker!Princess Black Lotus is reborn as a poisonous concubine

The second floor of Yangwenzhai.

Xu Feng and Zhuo Wan were sitting in front of the window, with some poetry collections and refreshments placed in front of them. Both of them looked a little reserved.

"Miss Ye, you said you had something to do with me, just to give me clothes?"

Xu Feng had a square brocade box on hand. According to Zhuo Wan, it was the clothes she had sewn by herself.

Zhuo Wan looked at Xu Feng's somewhat uncomfortable expression and explained: "In the Cold Food Festival in Xijing, there is a custom of giving away warm clothes. I am just adhering to the customs and etiquette. Brother Xu Feng, you don't have to bear any burden."

Xu Feng scratched his head, "However, I obviously owe Miss Ye a favor, so I accept Miss Ye's gift again. I... I really don't know how to repay the girl's kindness."

Zhuo Wan waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, I don't need your reward."

She actually wanted to say that she just hoped that he could see her from time to time, but she really couldn't say this.

But...she suddenly had a plan in mind.

"Brother Xu, if you have to repay me, you can do it. The winter solstice will be here in ten days. Here..." Zhuo Wan was a little stunned, but she still mustered up the courage to say, "You can also repay me. Consider some small items to keep out the cold as a return gift."

Xu Feng was a little confused. The people in Xijing were really wealthy and leisurely. They would celebrate one festival or another every now and then. For a rough guy like him, it was really nerve-wracking.

However, Dashuo people have always been very polite and reciprocal, so there is no reason to accept a gift and not return the gift.

In fact, he could have refused Zhuo Wan's kindness today, but looking at her deer-like expectant eyes, he really couldn't say the words of rejection to her.

"Then I will accept Miss Ye's kindness. At the winter solstice... you and I will meet here again."

After the plan was accomplished, the restraint on Zhuo Wan's face disappeared, revealing a smile that was more beautiful than a flower, and the ends of her eyes were more curved than crescent moons, "Okay, then we'll make an appointment!"

Xu Feng's heart stopped for a moment, and the smile on his face gradually stiffened.

He knows what it feels like to like someone, he, he, he, he has changed his mind!

Zhuo Wan was still immersed in the anticipation of the next date, and did not notice anything strange about Xu Feng.

Although she and Xu Feng are now in public, they can be said to be alone together. If someone sees this, there is no way to explain it.

Zhuo Wan stood up and said, "Brother Xu, I'll leave first. See you next time."

Xu Feng smiled politely and said, "Miss Ye, walk slowly."

He knew that her carriage was parked outside Yangwenzhai, so he was not worried about her safety on the way home.

Zhuo Wan took a light step, and the complicated skirt rose up and down with her nimble steps. When she turned to the stairs, she saw a familiar face. Remembering that he was also a fellow guard beside Xu Feng, Zhuo Wan nodded and smiled at Chu Yi, turned her eyes away and walked downstairs.

On the first day of the new year, he went upstairs and was about to tease Xu Feng a few words, but saw him looking out the window worriedly, not noticing his approach at all.

"Hey, what's wrong, Brother Xu, you should be happy when the little girl gives you clothes. Do you know what is the etiquette of giving clothes to others during the Cold Food Festival?"

Xu Feng turned his head when he heard the sound, frowned and asked, "What's the point?"

"Giving warm clothes during the Cold Food Festival is a gift of caring. That little girl is expressing her love to you generously! You, a foreigner, are too slow to react!"

Xu Feng's pupils shrank suddenly.

What! Miss Ye is interested in him!

How could he? How dare he? Him, why?

Xu Feng picked up the brocade box next to him and rushed down the stairs in three steps at a time. When he walked through the crowd and walked out of the Yangwen Studio, there was no sign of Zhuo Wan's carriage outside.

He lowered his head and stood outside the study for a moment, hesitated, then walked towards the front desk.

He originally planned to give the brocade box in his hand to Xu Shi and ask Xu Shi to return it to Zhuo Wan when Zhuo Wan came to the study again.

But... Zhuo Wan's charming and flowery smile suddenly appeared in his mind, and he hesitated again.

He turned around and walked onto the long street, spent one hundred taels on a pure white mink and a rabbit, and asked the store to pack it. After returning to the Yangwen Studio, he handed it over to Manager Xu.

"Please give it to Miss Ye on the winter solstice and say, this is my gift in return."

Xu Shi was puzzled, "Why didn't Leader Xu hand it over to her personally?"

Xu Feng looked indifferent, "There is no need to meet her again."

Xu Shi glanced at Xu Feng and put away the brocade box Xu Feng gave him as he was told, but he was secretly guessing in his heart.

There was a quarrel.

Chu Yi had already walked to Xu Feng's side. He hugged Xu Feng and hugged him, "Brother, are you afraid of being like this when you just put away your clothes? Do you dare to marry a wife in the future?"

Xu Feng coldly gave Chu Yi a "you don't understand" look and said, "I'm going back first." He turned around and left with the wooden box in his arms.

On the first day of the new year, he said "cut" and said goodbye to Xu Shi with clasped fists.

The two of them got on their horses one after another and galloped towards the city gate.

Xu Feng held the reins with one hand and held the brocade box given to him by Zhuo Wan tightly in his arms with the other hand.

He didn't want to disappoint her, so he accepted the clothes she gave him.

He didn't want to break his promise to her, so he prepared small things to keep out the cold and asked someone to give them to her on the winter solstice.

However, he couldn't see her again. Just when she smiled like that, his heart twitched involuntarily. He was afraid that if he saw her again, he would have uncontrollable feelings for her.

He...he can't do this! He must be loyal to His Highness and cannot have feelings for other people between men and women!

Two horses were galloping in the night. Looking at Xu Feng's back on Chu Yi, his brows gradually furrowed.

This person may have made a thick cocoon for himself and bound himself inside.

Did he know that how could the fire in his heart be hindered by that cocoon? Sooner or later, it would burn out.

After being in contact with him for a long time, Chu Yi knew Xu Feng quite well.

He followed his wife to Xijing regardless of his promising future in the capital. He was not ordered by Emperor Heiren or asked by his wife, but of his own free will.

After working with him for a long time, he could also tell some clues from the details in daily life, that is, Xu Feng seemed to have an unusual affection for his wife.

Putting himself in Chu Yi's shoes, he sympathized with Xu Feng very much. If his wife and master were the sun and moon in the sky, then he could only be the most inconspicuous star in the sky. He could only guard him from afar, and he could not even get close, for fear of the evil in him. That little light interfered with the brilliance of the sun and the moon.

The people around the two masters are all stars illuminated by their brilliance. While surrounding and protecting the sun and moon, they should also have their own trajectory.
