Chapter 175 I thought you didn’t want me anymore!
The cold wind blew the red rope tied in her hair. After circling around for a long time, Xu Qingwan finally stood at the door of Wei's house.
She had just arrived in Shuzhou City this day.
He first went to Xuan Jingsi to submit the transfer documents, and then without even going to the arranged residence, he ran here with his luggage.
Three months later, Comrade Xiao Xu was looking forward to the moment of reuniting with Wei Changtian every day.
But now that there was only a wall between the two of them, she hesitated.
“.”
"Sir, try my tofu. Is it delicious?"
"Ah! Sir, I'm letting you eat the tofu in the bowl!"
"Brother Changtian, please stop bullying Sister Liushi. You have no shame!"
"Sister Qin'er, it's okay, as long as the young master is happy."
"Well, um, Master, I'm going to go see if the pancakes are ready, husband! Come and help me!"
"Ah? Ah?"
“.”
Yang Liushi's coquettishness, Liang Qin's envy, Li Suyue's embarrassment, Zhang San's belated realization. The lively sounds in the house floated out of the room and the courtyard, and seemed to carry some of the heat from the hot pot into Xu Qingwan's ears.
She stood in the cold wind, holding Queti in her arms, until the vermilion door was pushed open a little.
“This girl.”
Yuan'er poked her head out and asked in confusion, "Who are you looking for?"
"ah!"
Xu Qingwan came back to her senses from her trance and opened her mouth.
"I, I took the wrong path."
"Wrong way?"
Yuan'er was a little suspicious. When she was about to ask again, she saw that the woman opposite had already lowered her head and turned away.
"strangeness."
Looking at the figure slowly disappearing at the end of the alley, she blinked in confusion.
Huh? I feel like I've seen this sister somewhere before . Maybe I remembered it wrongly. "Yuan'er, what are you doing here?"
Li Suyue's voice came from behind.
"Ah, nothing."
Yuan'er shook her head and closed the door again.
"The concierge just said there was a girl standing outside, so I came to ask."
"What about her?"
"They've already left. They said they went to the wrong house."
"Crackle~"
In the room, the fire was barely burning but not very bright.
The small room was very tidy. There was a wooden bed in the corner, covered with a checkered curtain.
Although the mud bricks on the ground were spotless, they were somewhat damp. I didn't know if it was because of the water that had been splashed on them in the afternoon or because of the cold climate in Shuzhou.
This is the residence in Shuzhou arranged by Xuan Jingsi for Xu Qingwan. Compared with ordinary servants, it is already "overstandard".
After all, the gossip between General Xu and Wei Changtian was known to everyone in the entire Xuan Jingsi headquarters, so Chen Bo naturally had never heard of it.
Although he didn't know what the current relationship between Xu Qingwan and Wei Changtian was, he didn't dare to neglect it and directly arranged such a room according to the "standards" of a hundred households.
"Pah~"
Xu Qingwan gently placed Queti on the table and sat beside it for a while before she unfolded the package and prepared to pack her luggage.
Actually, there is nothing to clean up.
In the small cloth bag, besides a few sets of clothes, there was only a small wooden box wrapped tightly.
“Pah~”
When the lid of the box was opened, a stack of silver bills was revealed on the surface, which added up to nearly two thousand taels.
Under the silver note was a red demon pill and a thin piece of letter paper.
If love between two people lasts for a long time, why should they be together day and night? Biting her lip and looking stupidly at the poem which she had read countless times, Xu Qingwan wiped her eyes with some grievance.
She only knew Lu Jingyao before, so she had no idea who the women who were speaking just now were.
But after all, they are very close to Wei Changtian.
It's only been three months and he already has a new love in Shuzhou? Xu Qingwan knew that she had no right to be jealous, after all, Wei Changtian hadn't really married her yet.
But I just feel very sad.
“Dongdong~”
There was a slight knock on the door. Comrade Xiao Xu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a little uneasy and expectant.
He hurriedly put away the wooden box, wiped his tears with his sleeve, took a deep breath and walked to the door.
"Who is it?"
"Ahem, Mr. Xu, it's me." Chen Bo's voice came from outside the house.
“.”
The excitement that had just emerged disappeared in an instant. Xu Qingwan slowly opened the door and forced a smile.
"Master Chen, what can I do for you?"
"Haha, nothing much. I just stopped by to ask General Xu if you need anything so I can send someone to get it."
Chen Bo had no intention of entering the house, so he stood at the door and said politely, "You just came from the capital. If you are not used to anything in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, just tell me. Don't be polite."
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Chen. The room has everything you need, nothing is missing."
Xu Qingwan hesitated for a moment and slightly moved aside: "Sir, would you like to come in and have a cup of hot tea?"
"Uh, I won't drink the tea."
Chen Bo glanced at the empty copper kettle in the room and asked casually.
"By the way, today is Laba Festival. I wonder if General Xu has had dinner yet? How about I ask someone to bring some over?"
"Don't bother Master Chen. I'll just go find a tavern outside and have something to eat."
"That's fine. There's a Shunyi Restaurant on West Street that's pretty good. It's also our own property. When General Xu finishes eating, just show the waiter the name card and he'll keep the bill."
“.”
Soon, after introducing Xu Qingwan to various shops around, Chen Bo prepared to say goodbye and leave.
Xu Qingwan nodded, and out of politeness did not rush to close the door, but stood at the door and watched Chen Bo walk away.
However, just after the latter turned the corner, a conversation suddenly came from behind.
"Master Wei?"
"Hmm? Master Chen?"
The fire on the wall burned more and more vigorously, turning Xu Qingwan's cheeks red.
Looking at Comrade Xiao Xu who was standing opposite him like a fool, Wei Changtian put the lunch box in his hand on the table, with a look of both anger and amusement on his face.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were transferred to Shuzhou?"
"Why didn't you reply to my letter?"
"You were already at the door, why didn't you knock? And what did you say you had the wrong person?"
“.”
Faced with this series of questions, Xu Qingwan opened her mouth, not knowing which one to answer first.
She was stunned for a long time, then weakly pointed at Wei Changtian's waist and asked in a low voice: "Where's Long Yin?"
"Um?"
Wei Changtian didn't expect Xu Qingwan's focus to be so strange, and replied casually: "It's broken."
"We had a fight a few days ago, and the opponent's weapon was better than Longyin's, so it broke."
"ah?"
Xu Qingwan suddenly raised her head and took a step forward nervously: "Then, then are you okay?"
"Of course it's okay, otherwise how can I still sit here and talk to you?"
Wei Changtian took out a piece of red rope that had turned dark red and was even a little tattered from his arms and said with a smile:
"Although the knife is gone, I still have the token you gave me."
"Well, I had tied it to the handle of the knife before, so it looks a little torn from the wind and sun, but..."
“Plop!”
Wei Changtian didn't finish his words, because when he was halfway through explaining, a beautiful figure suddenly threw herself into his arms.
"Woo woo woo"
Feeling the dampness and heat in his chest, Wei Changtian was completely confused.
"No, I can understand that you are excited to see me, but why are you crying?"
"I, I"
Although Xu Qingwan had already decided on Wei Changtian, she couldn't help feeling a little shy at this moment because the two of them had never done anything intimate before.
But she didn't want to let go of Wei Changtian, so she buried her head in his chest like an ostrich, crying with both grievance and relief: "I, I thought you didn't want me anymore!"
"You, you promised to marry me, and I even paid twenty taels of silver as a deposit, wuwuwu"
I am now well! Thank you all readers for your concern!
