Chapter 127 I Miss You Every Minute
Zhao Zhuoxi learned that she came to worship at the Guanyin Temple today.
I came to the temple early in the morning and waited.
Zhao Zhuoxi was extremely worried about Jiang Jiu going to Zhou's house.
But Jiang Jiu was stubborn about it and there was nothing he could do.
When they entered the provincial government on the second day of the first lunar month, Zhao Zhuoxi wished he could follow them that day.
Tiantian asked Lu Ming to go to Zhou's house to find Nishang to inquire about Jiang Jiu's news.
However, the mansion is as deep as the sea, Zhao Zhuoxi cannot get in, and Lu Ming cannot always get the news.
Finally, Jiang Jiu had the opportunity to go out, which made Zhao Zhuoxi very happy.
He can see Jiang Jiu now to ease his longing for him.
Jiang Jiu raised his eyes and glanced at him. Seeing his anxious look, he lowered his head and smiled slightly.
In fact, when Mrs. Zhou and Shen talked about her marriage with the Chang sisters, Jiang Jiu had doubts. Why couldn't she be married to the Ninth Prince Zhao Zhuoxi?
Jiang Jiu feels that he is pretty good in terms of both age and personality.
But the reality is that in the eyes of the Zhou family, Zhao Zhuoxi is a useless pawn and is of no use at all.
After returning, Jiang Jiu thought again that the reason why the Zhou family took the Chang sisters in was mainly because there were too few daughters in the Zhou family's lifetime.
With only Zhou Yaqian left in the first wife's family, there was no way for her to marry a minister in the imperial court.
Zhou Xiang originally wanted Zhou Shi'an to marry the granddaughter of Zhenguo Hou. But now Zhou Shi'an is dead, and he has no son, let alone grandson of the right age.
However, the Zhenguohou family still has sons and grandsons, so Prime Minister Zhou can marry his daughters and granddaughters to them.
Jiang Jiu discovered that in ancient times, people no longer valued free love, and marriage was just a tool for the noble families. After becoming relatives, the interests of both sides were aligned, and the bond became tighter.
But Jiang Jiu...she has always made her own decisions about her marriage.
After entering the Guanyin Temple with Shen and others, Zhao Zhuoxi followed closely.
Jiang Jiu was not the only one who saw the ninth prince Zhao Zhuoxi. Chang Pingping was in the crowd, and when she saw Zhao Zhuoxi, her heart started pounding.
It was fate that Chang Pingping met Zhao Zhuoxi.
When she met Zhao Zhuoxi for the first time at Mrs. Chang's banquet, she fell in love with him at first sight.
However, Mrs. Chang, like everyone else, looked down on Zhao Zhuoxi.
Chang Pingping didn't understand why the ninth prince was not valued by others.
Anyway, she thought Zhao Zhuoxi was good-looking and the noble ninth prince, which was good.
Who knew that later someone told him that he was in poor health.
Chang Pingping was a grown-up girl after all, and had no idea what they said about men's physiques. She still thought Zhao Zhuoxi was good-looking and liked him.
But when she thought about her mother's death and the fact that she and her sister would have to wait three years to get married, and she didn't know what the situation would be like in three years, her heart gradually grew cold.
Now, seeing Zhao Zhuoxi again, my heart still beats like a beating heart.
His eyes followed Zhao Zhuoxi's figure unconsciously, but he gradually realized that Zhao Zhuoxi's eyes were always on Jiang Jiu.
Yes, Jiang Jiu, the one who was once impersonated by someone, is actually a daughter of the Chang family like her, and was once a maid in the Prince Qi's mansion.
Could it be that they are already together?
Chang Pingping's eyes turned towards Jiang Jiu, becoming increasingly cold.
When she saw Jiang Jiu and Zhao Zhuoxi appear under the matchmaker tree together, her eyes seemed to be poisoned, and jealousy grew like a blade of grass...
*******
Under the Yue Lao Tree
Jiang Jiu looked up at the albizzia tree covered with red ribbons and smacked his lips.
"You said that with so many things hanging on this tree, will it stop growing?"
Zhao Zhuoxi smiled and said, "If there are some hanging, the monks in the temple will clean them up."
"Ah? Then their requests were in vain." Jiang Jiu was puzzled.
When Zhao Zhuoxi saw Jiang Jiu looking up, his little face was illuminated by the sunlight, his skin was crystal clear, white and rosy, so he wanted to pinch it.
"They all talk about the Buddhist fate. Besides, some of those who have been together for a long time would have already started a family. This is just a beautiful wish."
Yes, a beautiful wish.
Jiang Jiu looked at the red silk in his hand and stood under the tree to look for the location.
"Hey……"
She tried to throw it towards the tree, but found that she was too short to throw it up.
Zhao Zhuoxi chuckled and stretched out his hand: "I'll help you throw it to the top of the tree."
The higher you throw the wishing card, the closer it is to heaven, and the more likely your wish will come true.
Jiang Jiu raised his eyebrows: "You want to peek at my wish."
Zhao Zhuoxi smiled with a guilty look on his face: "I let you watch mine, and you let me
It's up to you. "
Jiang Jiu pouted and refused: "No, it won't work if someone sees it."
But Jiang Jiu still wanted to take a peek at Zhao Zhuoxi's wish.
After being discovered by Zhao Zhuoxi, he smiled like a sly person, which was extremely adorable.
Zhao Zhuoxi suddenly said, "I have a good idea. If I hold you, you can throw the sign much higher."
It was indeed a solution. Zhao Zhuoxi didn't say anything and just hugged Jiang Jiu's legs and picked him up like a child.
Sure enough, Jiang Jiu threw the wishing card high.
But after Zhao Zhuoxi put Jiang Jiu down, he was unwilling to let go.
"Xiao Jiu, I miss you..."
Jiang Jiu was held in Zhao Zhuoxi's arms. His big hands touched her slender waist. He felt that her waist was not as wide as his hands and he could hold it in one go.
Looking around and seeing no one else around, Jiang Jiu also put his arm around Zhao Zhuoxi's waist.
"What should I do? I can't give up halfway. After all, I moved into the Zhou family because of you."
At this moment, Zhao Zhuoxi only hated that he was not strong enough and really wanted to rebel.
But he knew that he couldn't make trouble when he didn't have enough strength.
"I don't need you to do too much for me, Xiaojiu, as long as you are by my side, it is enough..."
As he spoke, Zhao Zhuoxi thought of Ye Guzhou in the Suzhou Hot Spring Villa.
"If I had to live alone for so many years without you by my side like Ye Guzhou, I would rather have nothing and just be with you."
Jiang Jiu's mind moved slightly, and just as he was about to get close to Zhao Zhuoxi's chest, he suddenly heard a slight "cough" and pushed Zhao Zhuoxi away.
Her face turned red and she said angrily, "Someone is watching us..."
Zhao Zhuoxi actually noticed someone was spying on them a long time ago, but he just didn't say anything.
When he saw a patch of lotus-pink color in the corner of the wall, he knew who was peeking at them.
"Are you going to stay in the temple tonight?"
Jiang Jiu nodded: "Three people from the Zhou family died in succession. They said that the Zhou family had brought in dirty things and was not clean. They had to light long lamps in the temple, chant scriptures, and meditate for three days. They would not even go back on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
Zhao Zhuoxi snorted coldly: "I said so. The temple backyard has been closed for three days. It turns out it's because of Prime Minister Zhou. As expected, he is extremely powerful."
During the first month of the year, people come here to burn incense and worship Buddha, but some also want to stay to chant sutras, meditate, and pray for the salvation of the souls of the dead.
But no one else has this right to order the abbot of the temple around, only Zhou Xiang has it.
Fortunately, Zhao Zhuoxi was a prince, and no matter how noble the prime minister of Zhou was, the temple was still a royal temple.
"We will have three days to spend together."
It makes me happy when I think about it.
At this time, Nichang came over and called Jiang Jiu: "Girl, it's almost time to start, let's go."
When Jiang Jiu arrived at the temple, the housekeeper had already arranged everything.
But when lighting the lamp, relatives should light it themselves.
As the eldest daughter-in-law of the Shen family, sister-in-law Shen lights the way for Zhou Shian.
As the eldest daughter, Chang Pingping lights the lamp for her mother, Mrs. Chang.
Finally, the abbot handed the candle to Jiang Jiu...
