Chapter 126
This Xue Shun, who looks cowardly, actually knows how to play this trick.
Shen Jiao was really surprised.
Are you afraid that she will go out and hurt others again?
He really is a good person.
Shen Jiao rolled her eyes, but had no intention of running away. She continued to work as usual, wreaking havoc in the vegetable garden, and playing with Xuan Xiao and the others.
In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding date of the Fifteenth Young Master.
Xue Shun hesitated, but still asked Shen Jiao, "Do you want to go with us? This is a happy occasion, it should be very lively."
It was bound to be lively. The village was already decorated with red silk and colorful lanterns. Even Xue Shun's yard was decorated. It was as if a grand celebration was in store.
According to Liangua and Yuge'er, as early as a month ago, after the wedding date was set, Tongcai Villa had been distributing wedding cakes, candies, and various snacks and fruits to the people of Qishui County every day, saying that they wanted everyone to share in the joy.
But in Shen Jiao's opinion, this was already grand and unusual.
When asked about the marriages of other young men, they also said that it had never happened before.
No matter how rich you are, you shouldn't spend it this way.
What's more, there are several young men who are not married.
If everyone did this, life would be meaningless.
Unless the lady of the manor really intends to make Xue Shiwu the young manor master, otherwise this approach seems like it will only happen this time and there will be no next time.
Shen Jiao hadn't heard of any major changes here.
In short, if possible, she should go with them to take a look. The three-year period has not yet ended, and she will have to stay here for a long time.
If anything really happened, she would have to know about it.
Even if Xue Shun hadn't said it, Shen Jiao would have brought it up herself. Now that she heard him say it, Shen Jiao readily agreed.
Xue Shun smiled at her and said, "I asked Qiongzhi to go down the mountain and make you a set of clothes. Try them on to see if they fit you. If they do, wear them."
He took out a set of clothes from his bookcase which he had hidden at some point, and unfolded them to show her.
It was in Xue Shun's favorite color, cherry red, which matched his expensive suit very well. The material was the same, but it was simpler and lighter, with less embroidery.
Xue Shun was afraid she would be upset, so he pursed his lips and explained, "We haven't told our parents about our affairs yet. I'm afraid you'll wear something eye-catching and bring trouble, so I told you to keep it simple. If you don't like it, forget it. I'll make you another set to wear in the courtyard later, okay?"
"I like this set very much. Why make another one? Let me put it on and show you, sir?"
"good."
Xue Shun handed her the clothes and sat on the couch in the outer room waiting. Shen Jiao went behind the screen in the inner room to change before leaving.
Shen Jiao had long known that Xue Shun had the desire but not the courage to do it, but she never expected that after the two of them slept together for so long, he was still like a practicing monk.
I have to look away when I see her changing clothes, and I don't do anything except hug her. She has to take the initiative when I kiss her.
Is it possible that it is not possible?
It's hard to say. After all, he grew up in a brothel, and his body might have been ruined by him a long time ago.
But this kind of thing doesn't matter to her.
Xue Shun stared at her for a long time before blushing and saying, "You look good in this color too."
Shen Jiao's clothes were all green in the past, and Xue Shun had rarely seen her wear any other color.
When I saw it today, I somehow thought of wedding dresses.
The bright red color must suit her very well.
Shen Jiao looked in the mirror and thought she looked good too.
Perhaps in the future the inside of her coffin could be painted this color, while the outside would still be bright red.
The bricks were all soaked green, and a sun was painted on the top of the tomb.
Just fill the grave and plant some flowers and plants on it.
There is no need for a tombstone, but we need to hire a sculptor to carve a portrait for her to capture her beauty. Should we put it inside or outside?
This matter... let me think about it again.
Shen Jiao said, "Young Master has a very good eye."
Xue Shun pondered and asked her, "Are you praising me or yourself?"
Shen Jiao doesn't want to talk about this.
"It's all the same, all the same," she said perfunctorily.
Xue Shun laughed, stood up and took out a jade hairpin from his sleeve: "And this, I wanted to give it to you on your birthday, but you never told me when it was, so I had to give up. But I thought that no matter when it was, you would be coming of age this year, and you should have a hairpin to tie your hair. I wanted to make one for you myself, but unfortunately, when I was almost finished, Mr. Song confiscated it, so I had to skip class to buy one..."
His face turned redder and redder as he spoke.
I felt shy, embarrassed, and a little embarrassed about not studying hard enough.
But if it happens again, he will still skip class.
Shen Jiao: "Did Mr. Song punish you by making you copy books?"
Xue Shun shook his head. "No, he said I was a hopeless case and that no matter how much I copied, it would be useless. He punished me by making me sweep his yard for a month and memorize five articles, which I had to explain word for word."
"What kind of article is this? Is it difficult?"
"It's okay. I read it twice and it's quite catchy. But I haven't read it before. It's all about infatuated men and resentful women, and the endings are all unsatisfactory and regretful."
What did he think of? What did he say?
"I also carved two lines of love poetry on the box that holds the hairpin. You haven't seen it yet. Can I read it to you?"
Shen Jiao: "...Okay, sir, please continue speaking. I am listening."
Xue Shun cleared his throat and recited in a sonorous and powerful voice, not very emotionally: "Even though my clothes are getting looser, I will never regret it. I am becoming haggard because of you!"
Shen Jiao: "Ah?"
Is this word appropriate here?
She asked carefully, "Why did you come up with these two sentences, sir?"
Xue Shun said, "Carving that hairpin was so tiring that I couldn't even eat. Didn't you see? I've lost some weight, and my clothes are loose. You've been paying less and less attention to me lately. You'd better pay more attention to Xuan Xiao and the others."
Xue Shun has always been thin.
But Shen Jiao still felt it was outrageous when she saw the slight part of the clothes that he pointed out that didn't fit.
"So, Master, you specially carved these two lines of poetry to... remind me?"
"Yeah, that's right," Xue Shun raised his head with a proud look on his face, pulling her aside and saying, "I carved this poem to say that although I am willing, you still have to feel sorry for me. You can't treat me however you want like before, as if you don't care at all. It makes me sad just thinking about it. I know this is a bit harsh, but you still have to keep it in your mind, okay? Remember, we are going to get married, and we still have many years to live. You can't stop loving me now."
Shen Jiao: ...
"You don't have to do these things, sir."
"But I want to do it."
"But if you don't do it, you won't be tired, right?"
"How can you feel sorry for me if I'm not tired? You don't even hit me now."
Xue Shun bluntly said that it was a headache, and he also sounded very aggrieved.
Isn't Shen Jiao afraid of torturing him to death? Xue Shun has even grown white hair.
But he still wasn't satisfied even if he took better care of it.
Shen Jiao's mind turned: "Then..."
