peasant girl wedding

Chapter 274 Quarrel
"You, you bastard!"

Madam Qingyan looked at the resolute Liu Chen and said angrily.

That night, Mrs. Qingyan called Tong Zhu'er to her, and told her the bastard things Liu Chen said.

"Pearl, don't promise him this bastard when you go. What's the use of being a concubine if you are a good girl? They men only care about their own pleasure, but they don't care about being a concubine for a daughter's family. What does it mean?"

Mrs. Qingyan took Tong Zhu'er's hand, and said earnestly.

She not only regards Tong Zhu'er as her apprentice, but also her daughter.

If not, then Mrs. Qingyan would not tell her such heart-to-heart words.

Who would have thought that her painstaking efforts would be in vain.

"Master, I, I am willing to be Ah Chen's concubine."

Tong Zhuer said softly.

Madam Qingyan fell into a daze.

She smiled and said, "Pearl, what you said just now, I misheard you, right? Say it again?"

Tong Zhu'er bit her lower lip, her voice was very soft, but her tone was very firm, "Master, I like Ah Chen, and I am willing to be Ah Chen's concubine."

Madam Qingyan stood up abruptly, trembling all over.

"You, why do I have such a lowly apprentice like you?"

She cursed in a panic.

Tong Zhu'er lowered her head and said nothing, but it felt like a knife had been stabbed in her heart, the pain was severe.

She knew that from the moment she said that she was willing to be Liu Chen's concubine, Master would never forgive her again.

.........

"Ugh."

Tong Zhuer let out a long sigh,

With a "squeak", the girl who took the clothes came back.

"Tong girl, let me change it for you."

Tong Zhu'er shook her head with a smile, and said to her: "You go out first, I'll do it myself."

The girl didn't insist, she closed the door and went out.

…………

"Young Master Liu."

Tong Zhi'er looked at the man in front of him expressionlessly, and said coldly.

Contrary to Tong Zhi'er's indifferent attitude, Liu Chen's face was full of smiles.

This is the second time he has spoken to Tong Zhi'er.

Meeting Tong Zhier for the third time.

Although the number of times he met was only a handful, he had a deep memory.

The first time we met, she was in his mother's garden, leaning over the flowers and chuckling.Liu Chen had never seen a woman's smile like that, she was open-minded and natural, and even people couldn't help laughing along with her, and her whole mood became lighter.

The second meeting was when she and Tong Zhu'er happened to come out of the mansion.

He stopped her carriage, and she looked at herself coldly and warily.

Later, he asked his mother to marry her as his wife.

What my mother didn't give him any thought was to reject him.

Maybe it's because he never got it, maybe it's because she was deeply imprinted on his heart, even after two years, the emotion he felt when he saw her was no less than the heartbeat he felt when he saw her for the first time.

Tong Zhier frowned.

She disliked the way the man looked at her.

"Mr. Liu, tell me the truth, have you ever bullied my sister?"

Tong Zhi'er said straightforwardly.

Liu Chen immediately shook his head, "No, absolutely not."

He answered very anxiously, as if explaining to the woman he likes, his reddish cheeks and Tong Zhi'er's frown were more deeply creased.

Although Tong Zhi'er didn't like his gaze and expression, what he said made Tong Zhi'er breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, what Pearl said to her parents was all made up.

In this way, there is still a chance of redemption.

"Mr. Liu, with all due respect, the daughter of my Tong family is not a concubine."

Tong Zhi'er stared at the man opposite without blinking.

Liu Chen also stared at her.

Her pride at the moment poured out.

Compared with the smiling face blooming among the flowers when she first met, the proud and upright girl moved his heart even more.

Such a special woman, if the mother did not object at the beginning, should be his wife.

And that lovely child should also be his.

Liu Chen clenched his fists.

"Mr. Liu, if you have no way to marry my sister, then please tell her clearly and don't take her into the mansion as a concubine."

That's right, this is the main purpose of Tong Zhi'er's coming to the Liu Mansion.

Persuade Liu Chen to dispel the idea of ​​accepting Tong Zhu'er as a concubine.

Love makes Tong Zhu'er blind, even if she is a concubine, she still has to stay by this man's side.

If this man has no intention of taking her as a concubine at all, she must be sad for a while, but after a long time, she will definitely be able to get out of this pain.

As a sister, Tong Zhu'er can be said that Tong Zhi'er watched her grow up, and she knows Tong Zhu'er's temperament best.

"Okay, I can promise you this."

.........

Tong Zhu'er changed into new clothes, and without letting the girl follow her, she happily rushed to Liu Chen's yard alone.

From a distance, she saw Liu Chen sitting in the pavilion.Just as he was about to go over, his eyes flicked across another woman's face.

Why is Second Sister here?
After thinking about it, Tong Zhu'er stood where she was, and listened to the two talking with her ears up.

.........

"Second sister, don't you mind my business?"

The woman's eager and sharp voice came from behind, Tong Zhi'er looked up, and immediately saw Tong Zhu'er's wide-eyed and ugly face.

Tong Zhi'er stood up and walked over slowly, "You are my sister, I can't ignore your business."

"Second sister, I know that being a concubine makes you feel ashamed and sad, but I just like A Chen. If you really want me, don't bother me anymore, and don't talk to A Chen again. If that's the case, will it work?"

"You, you want to be a concubine so much?"

Tong Zhi'er blushed and said angrily.

Tong Zhu'er bit her lip and stopped talking.

She didn't want to be a concubine, she just wanted to be with Liu Chen.

She knew that with her status, Master Liu and Master would not allow her to be Liu Chen's official wife, and the only way to stay by Liu Chen's side was to be his concubine.

"Why does our Tong family have a daughter like you? When others become concubines, they are either involuntary or for money. And you, for the love and love you said in your mouth, you will be a concubine! Why are you so confused? !"

"I'm confused! I'm confused! If I had a better background, would I only have to be a concubine and be with the person I like?"

"Snapped!"

Tong Zhi'er raised her hand heavily.

In just a moment, Tong Zhu'er's left cheek was swollen high after being hit.

"This is the last time, Pearl, and I will not do such a thing again, so do it for yourself!"

After leaving a word, Tong Zhi'er quickly turned around and left.

Her back was so resolute, Tong Zhu'er watched the back gradually walk out of her sight, and knew that the most important emotion in life just slipped out of her hands.She took two steps forward quickly, remembering that there was Liu Chen standing there, but she froze.

She cannot catch up.

Isn't she doing all this to be able to be with Liu Chen?

At this moment to catch up with the second sister, wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted and all efforts would be in vain.

Yes, she can't catch up.

"...Ah Chen, I..."

Before she could say a word, Tong Zhu'er saw Liu Chen quickly chasing after Tong Zhi'er in the direction where Tong Zhi'er left.

She opened her eyes wide, staring blankly at another anxious figure who disappeared from her sight, and many details of being with Liu Chen suddenly appeared in her mind.

"Pearl, what kind of person is your second sister?"

"Pearl, what does your second sister like? What do you hate?"

"Pearl, your second sister..."

During the time she and Liu Chen were together, the most she talked about was about the second sister.

She used to think that Liu Chen just loved her because he liked her, so he loved her house and wanted to know her family.

She is so stupid!
If you really want to get to know your family, why do you keep talking about the second sister?
…………

"Master Liu, do you have anything else to do?"

Tong Zhi'er stepped into the carriage, turned his head and said expressionlessly to the man who was chasing him.

"I...don't worry, I won't take Tong Zhu'er as my concubine."

He looked at her nervously, reassuring.

Even though he had just heard her resolutely say that to Tong Zhu'er, he did not miss the sadness that flashed in her eyes.

He doesn't want her to be sad.

If he could help her, he would do anything.

Tong Zhi'er snorted coldly, "No need, you can do whatever you want, just pretend I haven't been here today. Go back home!"

"Yes, young lady."

The coachman raised his whip high, and with a sound of "drive", the turning shaft of the chariot left Liu's mansion quickly.

.........

Tong Zhu'er maintained the previous action, and looked at Liu Chen who walked over with a slumped face.

He kept his head down, walked in front of her, didn't see her, and walked past her.

Tong Zhu'er could see his loss and loss.

If Madam Qingyan scolded her back then, it was like a sharp knife piercing into her heart.

So at this moment, Liu Chen took a blunt knife and stabbed it into her heart, bursts of throbbing pain came, causing Tong Zhu'er's entire heart to throb.

"Wait a moment."

Tong Zhu'er called out to stop him.

Liu Chen stopped in his tracks, but didn't look back.

"I will not take you as a concubine."

he said.

Tong Zhu'er laughed, as if she had expected him to say this a long time ago, "I just want to ask you, have I been just a substitute for so long?"

Liu Chen remained silent.

"I see."

The footsteps gradually faded away.

Liu Chen turned around, looked at Tong Zhu'er who was walking very slowly ahead, feeling a little confused.

Just a substitute?

He couldn't tell himself.

During these days with Tong Zhu'er, he lived very easily.But most of the time, he consciously or unconsciously looks for the shadow of Tong Zhi'er on Tong Zhu'er's face.

Whether it is a substitute, he himself does not know.

Therefore, he could only be silent.

.........

"Mother, you are back."

The carriage stopped in front of the Duke's Mansion, Tong Zhi'er lifted the curtain, and Ping An ran down the steps.

Facing his smiling face, Tong Zhi'er couldn't help but dissipate the anger and depression accumulated in her heart.
