Si Jinxing nodded vigorously, thinking in her heart, maybe one day, she could tell him her secret?
She reached out and poked the man's arm, saying:
"Hey, Qi Moli, you've given me so many things, and even your mother's golden branches and jade leaves.
I've never given you anything, don't you think it's unfair?"
Qi Moli lowered his head and snorted softly, saying:
"Since you're so thoughtful, just give yourself to me!"
"Cough cough..." Si Jinxing couldn't catch his breath and coughed several times after hearing that.
What kind of vicious words are these?
Seeing this, Qi Moli couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.
This girl is usually very steady, but now she feels shy.
He couldn't help but feel very happy and said:
"You are the best gift, no need for you to give anything."
He paused slightly, then put a little more force on the big hand on the little girl's back, hugged her tighter, and whispered:
"Xingxing, let's get married after the New Year, okay?"
Si Jinxing was holding something in her hand and was about to give it to Qi Moli when she suddenly heard his "proposal"...
This should be considered a proposal, right?
Although, there were no flowers, no balloons, and no rings...
But he is already the best.
Si Jinxing looked up at him, her black eyes seemed to be filled with starlight and full of anticipation.
She nodded and smiled, "Okay."
Qi Moli immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He had actually felt a little worried just now, but fortunately, it was okay.
But before he could be happy for a moment, the little girl in his arms pouted and said:
"You can get married, but you can't sleep together!"
Qi Moli frowned and said:
"Why not? We're already married, how can this be possible? Don't force me to do it."
As he spoke, he reached out to pinch the little girl's face.
Si Jinxing covered her face with her hands and said:
"I'm still a child. It's not appropriate for me to do such things too early. It will affect my physical development!
I'm a doctor, you should trust me!"
Qi Moli glared at her, pulled down her hands that were covering her face, and said:
"You'd better not lie to me!"
The two of them talked about the marriage for a few more words, but Qi Moli suddenly sighed and said:
"Xing, the emperor issued an order last night for you and He Wenqin to travel north to Huaizhou.
I believe the imperial edict will arrive today. Are you willing to go?"
He now thought, if he were not a member of the royal family, these troubles would have nothing to do with him, and he would not cause her any trouble.
Unexpectedly, the little girl beside him heard the words and suddenly said in surprise:
"But is it true?"
Qi Moli had been brewing his inseparable feelings for the entire morning, but why did it seem a little off when it came to her?
He frowned and said, "You...really want to go?"
Si Jinxing nodded, and said with a smile:
“Why don’t you want to go?
After the disaster, the people are in dire straits. As a doctor, this is my duty!
What's more, Huaizhou must be a place where all industries are about to be developed. This is a good opportunity with the right time, place and people!
Not only do I want to go, I also want Pei Qingzhu to follow me."
Qi Moli looked at the little girl in front of him, who looked very excited. He shook his head and laughed, thinking that he had been worrying too much!
He did not want to spoil her fun, but just tapped her smooth forehead and scolded her:
"Yes, yes, yes, Master Si is going to expand the territory, so why would he be so cruel as to abandon your husband?"
Si Jinxing laughed heartily, revealing a row of neat white teeth, and said:
"Here, this is my wish for you."
As she spoke, she handed the object in her hand forward.
This pocket watch was bought when she was sent abroad to study a few years ago. The strap and dial are both brass.
There was a five-clawed golden dragon carved on the cover, and a red lotus and summer lotus were lightly carved on the back.
Back then, when that scumbag came to my house, I fell in love with her at first sight.
But she couldn't bear to give it away and kept it. Now she thinks that man really didn't deserve it!
Qi Moli took it in his hand. It looked like a necklace worn by a woman, but it was not. It was something he had never seen before.
Si Jinxing reached out and pressed the button on the right side of the pocket watch. With a "click", the pocket watch lid opened.
On the white quartz dial, the hands are still moving accurately.
This is a mechanical watch, so you don't have to worry about it running out of power even if you take it out to use.
On the inside of the lid is a photo of her when she was a teenager, which is about the same age as she is now.
Qi Moli was stunned by the exquisite little object in front of him, especially when he saw that the person in the picture was exactly the same as the girl beside him!
However, the woman's clothes were very strange. Although only her upper body could be seen, her two white arms were exposed.
He couldn't help but frowned and asked unhappily:
"Is this your portrait? Why are you dressed like this?
Who drew this? I'm going to gouge his eyes out!"
Si Jinxing took down the photo and said with a smile:
"This is a photograph, not a painting. If you don't like it, I won't give it to you."
As she spoke, she made a move to take the photo away, but was stopped by the man.
"Who gives something away and wants to take it back? Go away, you're dreaming!" Qi Moli reached out and carefully put the photo back into the pocket watch.
This portrait is so lifelike.
He pointed at the watch hand and asked, "What is this?"
Si Jinxing corresponded the twelve hours to the twenty-four-hour system and taught him to recognize the hour hand, minute hand and second hand.
