Chapter 6 Don’t you just want to force me to marry you?
Wang was afraid that Chunxi would really take all those things away, so she told everyone that she had become a widow at such a young age and how difficult it was to raise three children alone. She also talked about how unwell she felt when she was pregnant with Chunxi, and how she almost died in childbirth.
Chunxi's ears were so tired of hearing these words.
She was too lazy to argue with Wang, so she simply went out to buy some incense, candles and a jar of good wine to visit her father at the cemetery.
The family came to pay homage after the New Year, and the cemetery was cleaned very cleanly.
Chunxi lit incense and candles, burned paper money, kowtowed three times earnestly, and finally poured wine for her father before sitting down in front of the grave.
"Dad, I haven't come to see you in years. It's not that I'm unfilial. Firstly, I've sold myself into slavery and have no choice. Secondly, I'm afraid you'll feel bad if you see me."
Chunxi's father was a bodyguard. In Chunxi's memory, he was very tall, but not serious at all. Instead, he loved to laugh. Every time he came back from a bodyguard mission, he would bring her all kinds of rare and interesting things, and he would lift her up high and let her ride on his neck to play.
Her father loved her very much. He not only taught her to read and write, but also taught her kung fu step by step.
Mother said that daughters should be gentle and considerate, but father said that as long as his daughter is not bullied, it will be fine.
Knowing that her father loved her, Chunxi began to complain about her mother incessantly.
"When I sold myself, my mother said that as long as my eldest brother found a job, she would raise money to redeem my daughter and bring her home. But later, my mother said that Awen needed to study and my eldest brother wanted to get married, so it would be good for my daughter to stay in the Wei family."
"When my daughter paid her monthly allowance, my mother said she was saving it for her dowry. She wanted to find her a good husband and marry her off with honor. But she'd already spent all the money. She was afraid I'd ask her for a dowry, so she urged her to become the eldest young master's concubine. Do you think there's any other mother like her in the world?"
Chunxi opened up and poured wine for her father, then took a sip herself. Before she knew it, the whole jar of wine was empty.
The surroundings were always quiet, with only the gentle spring breeze accompanying her.
Chunxi stroked the cold tombstone and murmured softly, "Mother is becoming increasingly confused. I cannot contradict her. I would like to ask you to persuade her through my dreams. I am in an awkward situation now. I must get married soon to avoid being involved in this."
The aged pear blossom white is quite strong. After taking a sip, Chunxi's eyes became moist.
She sniffed and added, "My daughter doesn't ask for a dowry, and she's not picky. As long as she's down-to-earth and motivated and willing to live a good life, that's all she needs."
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. I'll go home and wait for your good news."
Chunxi put down the wine jar, waved her hand casually, turned and left, but after she took a few steps, she saw Wei Lingze and his men walking towards her again.
Chunxi rubbed her eyes hard, and Wei Lingze moved closer to her.
Chunxi quickly looked up at the sky.
It was almost noon, the sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.
It shouldn't be her father appearing to kill Wei Lingze in front of her to vent her anger.
While thinking this, Wei Lingze had already arrived in front of Chunxi.
"what are you doing here?"
Wei Lingze frowned, his face cold and his tone doubtful.
Chunxi quickly explained: "I came to sweep my father's grave."
The incense ash is still in front of the tomb and the wine has not dried up, which is enough to prove that Chunxi's words are true.
Wei Lingze said coldly, "Someone has been stealing corpses recently. Come back to Jingzhao Prefecture with me."
After saying that, Wei Lingze grabbed Chunxi and walked out.
After drinking, Chunxi's whole body was hot. Feeling the warmth of his palm, Wei Lingze's eyes darkened.
Chunxi did not notice the change in Wei Lingze's eyes. The word "corpse stealing" was echoing in her mind.
Wasn’t that adult handling a case that night? How did he become a corpse robber?
Is that adult in no danger?
Chunxi's mind was in a mess until Wei Lingze lifted her onto the horse and her back touched his hard chest, and then she came to her senses.
How can they ride the same horse?
Chunxi wanted to refuse, but before she could open her mouth, Wei Lingze whipped the horse's butt hard.
The whistling wind blew away Wei Lingze's voice. Inertia made Chunxi lean back and crash into Wei Lingze's arms. Hot air rushed to her ears: "Hold on."
“…”
Chunxi's heart trembled slightly.
I feel that this is even more terrifying than Wei Lingze pointing a sword at my neck!
Half an hour later, Chunxi followed Wei Lingze into Jingzhao Prefecture with trembling legs.
Wei Lingze did not send Chunxi to the interrogation room, but took her to his office.
As the door closed, Wei Lingze's cold voice rang out: "Have you had enough of the commotion?"
“…”
What's wrong with her?
She was visiting her father's grave and was brought here for no apparent reason. She hadn't said a word yet, so was she considered causing trouble?
Chunxi's face was filled with bewilderment, and Wei Lingze's expression grew even colder. "You left the Wei family on your own initiative, wasn't it just to prove your position in my heart and force me to break off the engagement and marry you?"
“…”!!!
God knows, she doesn't even have the courage to be a concubine, so how could she dare to dream of becoming the wife?
"Master, you misunderstood. I never thought of it this way. Master and Miss Xiao are a match made in heaven. I sincerely hope that you can grow old together and have many children and grandchildren."
"It's just you and me here. You don't have to say such high-sounding words."
No matter who is here, I say this.
Chunxi felt that this misunderstanding was quite large. She said seriously, "Master, I am speaking from the heart. I really want to leave the Wei family. My mother is already helping me arrange a marriage."
"That's enough!" Wei Lingze shouted, staring at Chunxi with a dagger-like gaze. "My patience is limited. Are you sure you want to keep messing with me?"
He had already seen that Chunxi was playing hard to get, and he took the initiative to give Chunxi a way out. If Chunxi didn't stop when the opportunity presented itself, it would be ungrateful.
The atmosphere was cold and Chunxi was silent.
She originally thought that Wei Lingze had misunderstood her and that all she needed to do was explain it clearly, but now it seems that is not the case.
Wei Lingze seemed to believe that she was deeply in love with him, and everything she said and did was to attract his attention and win his favor.
But he obviously looked down on her, so why wouldn't he let her go?
Chunxi couldn't figure it out, so she asked directly: "It's not that I want to make a fuss, but if I continue to stay with the young master, my situation will be really awkward. The young master doesn't plan for me, so why can't I find a way out for myself?"
"How do you know I don't have plans for you?"
Wei Lingze asked back, and Chunxi was shocked.
What are your plans?
She doesn't know, she doesn't participate, she doesn't accept it!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Xiao Qinghe's gentle voice came: "Wei Lang, it's me."
Wei Lingze pulled Chunxi over without hesitation and stuffed her under the table.
Wei Lingze's actions were rough and Chunxi's head was hit hard.
Chunxi gritted his teeth and dared not say a word, with resentment rising in his heart.
Dad, why don’t you show up and kill him with a spear?
