Chapter 24 - Memories (2)
I want to break off the engagement. I don't want my cousin to feel sorry for me. Furthermore, I have only treated my cousin as my brother and have never been a husband. It's just that I don't care about this transformation, it's just that my cousin doesn't want to marry me.
Everyone knows about our marriage.
After cousin went to the College to study, we didn't contact each other for a long time. Once, I met a learned and talented scholar called Wu Wen at the market. That day, my cousin was still talking and laughing with him and even introduced him to me.
Since the day I met him, the evil fruit has been planted … I shouldn't have had other thoughts about Wu Wen, I must be a b * stard! "
I am the direct descendant of the Chu Clan, I have held it in my palm since I was young and have never experienced any setbacks. At the age of fifteen, when mother told me that I actually had a baby marriage with Cousin Zhao, I could neither say that I liked it nor reject it. However, Cousin Zhao had always been extremely good to me.
Not long after my cousin came back from Luzhou, he found out about my marriage and wasn't as intimate with me as he was in the past. I think it was because he knew that I was the target of the marriage that he was shy. But he didn't come to me for two months.
That night, I got lost during the lanterns meeting and met Wu Wen there.
Wu Wen is wearing a cyan long robe, I feel like he came out from a painting. He gently asked me, "Lady, are you lost?"
I nodded at him. "Yes, may I ask who you are?"
He politely pointed at the man in red clothes and said to me, "Your elder brother is busy. He asked me to come pick you up."
I followed the direction he was pointing in. Although there were a lot of people there, I still saw my cousin who wore red clothes and had a handsome appearance.
I politely bowed and told him, "I'll have to trouble young master."
When he led me to my cousin, he made fun of me and my cousin. I looked down at him.
He said to his cousin, "Your sister is so shy. I told her you wanted me to pick you up, but you didn't believe me."
"But on the surface, my cousin is serious, but he isn't angry at all." "A Wenmo wants to tease her, she's so shy."
His cousin then said to me: "Qiangrong, this is my Friends, his name is Wu Wen. He never had a proper mouth. "Don't take it to heart."
I nodded, not wanting to lower myself to the same level as him.
I found it interesting to see him looking so silly.
After what happened that time, I didn't see my cousin again. I knew that when I went to burn incense that day, I met Wu Wen who was also seeking a marriage.
He was looking up at me with the signature in his hand. I was surprised to see him.
He saw me greet him. " Zhao Ming's little cousin! " He used a very long term. I said to him, "My surname is Chu, you can call me Chu."
He asked me, "Are you here for marriage as well?"
I nodded. "Is Young Master Wu here to ask for a marriage alliance?"
He replied, "Yes, but I have a very bad marriage."
I think he's a nice sort of guy. Much better than my cousin. If only he were my husband.
I asked for the autograph. Show the signature to the master. The master looked at my signature and asked me, "What did you ask for, miss?"
I thought for a moment. "My daughter is asking for a marriage alliance."
The Master said, "In marriage, do not force yourself. Let nature take its course and live a happy life. It is best to know and not speak. "
I didn't understand, so I asked the Master, "What does Master mean by this?"
The Master stroked his white beard and said, "Even I don't know, it's just that the signature shows that the specific requirement is for the owner to gain enlightenment. "Remember to touch and force it."
When I walked out of the temple and saw Wu Wen just walking out, I stopped him and asked for his autograph.
Wu Wen smiled directly into his eyes. He had always been extremely kind to me. I felt my face heat up. They didn't even dare to look up at him.
He said, "I didn't manage to get my marriage contract. Master told me not to be too stubborn. This old bald donkey must be bluffing. Girl, don't tell me you believe the words of that old bald donkey? "
I shook my head. "No, I didn't." Eldest Brother Wu is going down the mountain? "
Brother Zhao and I went to the garden together, and after coming back, I went around the temple. Sigh, we will be setting up in the city, and we will meet again in Chu. "
When I got home, I slept every night, but every night when I woke up I would see that funny face.
I think I like him. But I'm going to marry my cousin. I can't like him, but the weeds in my heart are growing like crazy. I can't suppress my own thoughts.
I particularly wanted to go and see him, but I had no other common language with him. I recalled that he was good friends with my cousin, and that if I went to see him, I would definitely be able to see him.
I specially made a box of pastry and rode in a carriage to the Zhao manor. As expected, Wu Wen and his cousin were at study and the two of them were talking about something.
When I arrived, they were all very happy. I looked at the two people who were happily chatting and asked, "Cousin, what are you guys talking about?"
The cousin said, "We are also saying that there is an acrobatic group that has come to the west capital recently. We will go take a look this afternoon. "Are you going?"
I glanced at Wu Wen who was looking at the calligraphy and painting and said, "To go, is naturally to go."
"My cousin touched my head as usual." "Yeah, but there are a lot of people watching this circus, so don't you dare run around."
Cousin and I went to see the acrobatic troupe. Unsurprisingly, I was separated from my cousin and the others. When I turned around, I didn't even know where the maid had gone to.
I was crying by myself in a corner, as if the whole world had thrown me out. Unexpectedly, I saw Wu Wen. Wu Wen also saw me. I was squatting in the corner when he found me, and I thought my cousin and the others would find me.
Wu Wen pulled me up as he scolded me like my brother, "Where did you run off to? When I turned my head, not even a silver shadow could be seen. "
I actually wanted to say that I wanted to follow you, but I didn't expect you to run so fast. I didn't catch up and ended up lost.
I replied, "You ran so fast just now that I couldn't catch up to you. Now that you've already gone in, I can't see anything else."
"Silly girl, let's go. We've reserved a room. Your brother is waiting for us in his room!" This time, he didn't walk in front of me, but followed me, afraid that I would lose him again.
That juggling brought me closer to him, and I often went to see him at his cousin's house in order to see him more often.
I admit that I like him, he is so lively, so sunny, talking to him, I am particularly happy.
