still not right...

"Cousin Qi... what do you want to do?"

Just now he took me to eat beef, and then he wanted to give me the hard-to-buy lychees in the Northland.

The so-called courtship for nothing is stealing or stealing...

She sighed and said, "Tongtong, do you know how to boil frogs in warm water?"

"..."

She went on to say: "If you throw a frog into boiling water, the frog will jump out, but if you slowly heat the water until it is boiled, the frog will not jump out."

I still don't quite get it: "But what does that have to do with this thing?"

She looked at me with a smile and said, "I'm just cooking Tongtong in warm water."

"..."

She looked at me and said helplessly: "It's rare to be as slow as you, but Tongtong, even if you have a heart of stone, one day, I can cover you up."

The way she looked at me contained too much, and I didn't dare to look closely, nor did I dare to look too much.

I turned my head, and my heart was a little irritable and a little unclear...chaos.

"Then you go on, don't come to me and cry when the time comes when you lose all your money."

Why doesn't she give up?

Before, I thought that she was mostly interested in me on a whim, but now it seems that the situation is a little different from what I thought.

"No." She said firmly with a smile on her lips.

Very confident.

I couldn't help but hooked my lips, I thought of how she would suffer from me in the future, and felt inexplicably happy.

***

Three days later, Zhao Lingrong personally sent three boxes of lychees to my house.

Because I got along well with her when I was Mrs. Chen, I personally interviewed her.

Zhao Lingrong looks much rounder than a year ago, and she thinks her life is going well.

I heard that not long after I made peace with Chen Qi, Zhao Lingrong also made peace with "Chen Qi". Not only that, Chen Qi will also be adopted as a righteous sister, and betrothed to a steward under Tianshui Villa.

"A few years ago, when I first married Brother Yi, he told me that he only treated me as a younger sister and would not touch me. Brother Yi and I grew up together, and we have always respected him as an elder brother, so We agreed that when I find the person I like, we will dissolve the engagement, and he will be the master of my marriage."

I've heard Qingqian's gossip about this episode a few months ago, so I'm not too surprised. Right now, I just joked with her: "Oh? So now you've found someone you like?"

Zhao Lingrong's face was shy, and she acquiesced.

"By the way, there is one more thing..." Zhao Lingrong looked at me and hesitated to speak.

"What? But it's okay to say."

Zhao Lingrong looked at me hesitantly, and then said: "A few days ago, Mrs. Tai came to the capital, and Mrs. Tai seemed to intend to say goodbye to Brother Yi. These days, Brother Yi and Brother Yi are looking at the portrait of the lady in the boudoir in the capital."

"..."

When I heard Zhao Lingrong's words, I was inexplicably irritated.

A few days ago, he said he wanted to cover me up, but now he went to see the portraits of other women.

Sure enough, sweet words are not credible.

Fortunately, I didn't believe her nonsense before. Fortunately, I don't like her, otherwise I would be sad today.

***

For several days in a row, as long as I thought of Zhao Lingrong's words, I would feel a little depressed.

Therefore, when Wei Zi sent a few baskets of Lingnan citrus to my house a few days later, he was not treated as well as Zhao Lingrong, and I just shut him down.

On the second day after that, Chen Qi came to the door in person.

After the servant informed me, I walked over to open the door slowly, and didn't invite her in. I just stuck at the door and asked with my hands: "Master Chen is here, what's your business?"

She smiled and said: "I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I really can't figure out how to offend you these few days, until last night I called Lingrong to ask, Tongtong, she really misunderstood that matter..."

"It has nothing to do with me." Before she could finish, I closed the door with a bang.

After closing the door, I leaned against the vermilion lacquered gate, looked up at the sky in the four corners of the courtyard, and thought about the past few days.

It also just occurred to me that I have no position to be angry about this matter.

I never gave her a response, so there is no right to ask a person to be loyal to a relationship that may never get a response.

That's it, so, what do I really care about?

However, what I can't convince myself is that my subconscious resistance to this matter has reached a level that even I can't understand.

I thought that I would shut Chen Qi's door that day and she would never come again, but I didn't expect that she would come again the next day.

The servant came back to me, saying that she said that she would come over at this hour every day in the future, until I was willing to open the door to see her and listen to her explanation.I had all kinds of feelings in my heart, and I only asked her to tell her that the matter had nothing to do with me, and I didn't want to hear her explanation, so I asked her to go back.

However, she still came every day.

Five days have passed, and the sixth day has passed when she reports to my house every day, but I haven't heard the report from the servants for a long time.

After waiting for a while, I didn't see anyone come to report, so I ordered Qingqian: "Qingqian, go to the door and see, is anyone here?"

After a while, Qingqian came back and shook her head at me.

"It's clearly agreed to come here at this time every day, but I haven't seen anyone until now. People who don't believe their words are really unlovable, miss, is the slave girl right?" Qingqian said deliberately.

"I don't understand what you're talking about." I automatically ignored the girl's strange remarks, put down the account book in my hand, and walked out of the house.

Qingqian followed up, and asked from behind: "Miss, where are we going?"

"It's stuffy in the room, go for a walk outside."

I went to the closed door, opened it, and walked out.

I glanced around outside the house but didn't see the person I expected, and finally confirmed that she really wasn't here, and I was a little bit disappointed.

If you don't come, you don't come, what does it have to do with me?

I turned around and walked back.

After walking a few steps, someone stopped him: "Tongtong."

My body froze instantly.

"Are you looking for me?" The voice behind me was as casual as usual.

I felt guilty for no reason, and said hastily, "After dinner, let's go out for a walk."

I didn't know what kind of mentality I should use to face her, so I froze in place.

I heard her chuckle, and said: "Lingrong made a mistake in the matter last time, and what grandma and I discussed together in those few days was Jinrong's marriage."

After she said that, I just remembered that Chen Jinrong has also turned eighteen this year, and he is really old enough to start talking about marriage in Shangguo.

Not only Chen Jinrong, but Chen Jinyue is also sixteen this year. According to common sense, she should at least be engaged in a marriage at this age.However, my relationship with her is not good anyway, so I didn't bother to inquire about her news.

So this time it should be that I misunderstood her.

"I'm not angry about it," I said, turning around to face her.I have no reason to say this myself.

"Then why are you angry?" she asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"I……"

I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't find anything wrong with her, so I said in a shameless way: "No reason."

"Okay, no matter why, it's always my fault. I wish to make up for Miss Su with ten baskets of Lingnan seasonal fruits."

The depression in my heart has actually dissipated long ago, but I still don't want to accept her overture so quickly: "Who cares?"
