wedding dress

Chapter 140

The man was wearing a gray and green robe, and he was tall and tall.

Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, pulled the swing rope, and stood up straight.

"cousin?"

Shen Jing smiled slightly at her, and raised her hand in a bow: "Hi sister, congratulations to my sister."

Xiaodong blushed, and returned the gift gracefully: "I haven't congratulated my cousin yet, and I haven't met my new sister-in-law yet. Where is cousin from? Why didn't the girl come to tell me?"

"From my garden."

Xiaodong thought, he was avoiding other people on purpose, otherwise it might not be convenient to speak quietly with Mrs. Hu and the others around.Xiaodong glanced at Hongjing, and Hongjing backed away silently, following behind.Around Xiaodong, her mouth is the tightest, even if she hears something, Xiaodong is not afraid that she will say it.But—better not to hear it.

"Cousin hasn't been here for a while, but he looks fine..."

In fact, the calm complexion does not appear to be very good. Generally, after marriage, many men seem to look a little richer.Being the bridegroom can be regarded as the first of the four joys in life.But Shen Jing seemed to be thinner, but still energetic, with deep and bright eyes.

"I... am not married."

Xiaodong was extremely surprised: "What? What happened?"

"The girl from the Wen family was ill...The Wen family came to apologize later, and the marriage was also withdrawn."

Xiaodong paused.

The girl is sick, so it's okay to postpone the wedding, but isn't it necessary to call off the marriage?

There must be something hidden in this.

Xiaodong didn't want to inquire too much, so he could only comfort him a few words, then brought up the matter himself, and said in a low voice, "The fifth princess said that she really likes that painting, it's hanging in the room."

"Fifth princess... are you okay?"

"Very good." Xiaodong thought about it and said, "The son-in-law seems to be a very good-tempered person. Linxiang Hou's family is simple, and Mrs. Hou loves the fifth princess very much..." Of course, this son-in-law even drinks three jars of wine , and will never have the courage to beat his wife, it is far worse than Luo Wei.Mrs. Hou has no daughter, and the fifth princess can be a man again, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law live in harmony for a while.

Shen Jing nodded: "That's good... I'll take care of you, little sister Lao Xiaodong."

"My family, don't be so polite."

"Cousin, go sit down with me and have a cup of tea before leaving."

"No, I still have something to do, so I need to go back to the Imperial Academy."

Xiaodong sent him to the entrance of the Full Moon Cave, took his leave quietly, and left. Xiaodong stood in front of the door and looked at his thinner and taller back. The wind blew up the sleeves of his robe, fluttering like a wild goose—but the geese all came in groups. Being alone always makes people feel lonely and helpless, Xiaodong feels uneasy for some reason.

"The princess?"

Xiaodong came back to his senses: "It's okay, let's go back."

After dinner, Xiaodong looked at the empty space and asked Zhao Lu quietly: "Shen Jing has returned to the capital, have you seen it?"

"I've been very busy these days. All I know is that he's back and I haven't seen him yet. What's the matter?"

Didn't Zhao Lu hear anything?
"He is not married, and the marriage has been retired."

"Ah?" Zhao Lu was also taken aback: "What's going on? What happened?"

"He came here this afternoon." Of course Xiaodong didn't mention the congratulatory gift: "I congratulated him when I saw him. The family has retired."

Zhao Lu handed the candied fruit box to Xiaodong, but Xiaodong didn't pick it up: "Ms. Jiang won't let me eat more..."

It will break your teeth and make you fat.

Zhao Lumei raised her eyebrows: "Take care of her. You can't do anything, you can't eat anything, it was too boring to live that day."

Xiaodong took it over with a smile, and took a sweet plum: "He didn't stay long, and left after saying a few words. Brother, why don't you ask someone to find out... Let's see what's going on here?"

"Well," Zhao Lu tapped his finger on the table twice: "I don't know if there is any news from my father about this matter, my sister will go back first, and I will go to my father's place to ask."

Before he changed his clothes, he went to An Wang's place to hang around for a while, and came back and said, "Father just found out."

"Maybe it's really a sudden illness..."

Zhao Lu shook his head: "It's not that simple. Shen Jing's reputation and family history are all there. If I were from the Cheng family, as long as the daughter is not dead, this marriage will never be resigned. Since the girl is still alive, she should prolong her marriage." The doctor takes medicine, and it’s right to procrastinate. If you miss this village, such a son-in-law, such a family name, you can’t find it with a lantern..." Zhao Lu paused at this point, and glanced at Xiaodong.

Xiaodong was a little puzzled: "Brother?"

How about seeing what she does?
Could it be... Did Zhao Lu know that she helped Shen Jing pass the scroll?

Little did he know that Zhao Lu was thinking about something else entirely.

His younger sister is so smart, cute and sensible, but she was abducted by that rough Qin Lie.In fact, in comparison, Shen Jing's character, talent and appearance are only so-so worthy of her sister-in-law.Ugh……

If Qin Lie came to propose marriage at that time, he would hold it back a little longer and not allow his father to agree.Now that Shen Jing has no engagement again, how wonderful would it be?

It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a bad luck that there are only these days before and after.

Probably an elder brother always has this feeling.In fact, if it is really Shen Jing and Xiao Dong... Zhao Lu may not be pleasing to Shen Jing.

Naturally, Zhao Lu had to listen to Wang An's words.Although Qin Lie's family background is simple and he is devoted to Xiaodong, but if Shen Jing marries Xiaodong, wouldn't it be a good thing to get closer?Shen Jing is his cousin's son, and he is a real cousin with himself, closer than Qin Lie.Zhao Lu didn't believe that Shen Jing married Xiaodong and dared to treat his sister badly.

However, King An just likes Qin Lie!Xiaodong himself was willing, but Zhao Lu couldn't do it alone, so he could only pinch his nose to recognize it.But now that Shen Jing came back and the marriage failed, of course Zhao Lu couldn't just say that he broke the agreement and chased after Shen Jing, but...he always felt uncomfortable.

Zhao Lu saw that Qin Lie always had a nose or an eye, so if he had a chance, he would have to beat him up again.

Zhao Lu looked back and saw that Xiaodong's embroidery frame had not been put away, and the candle was shining brightly with the golden thread on it.Zhao Lu was in a daze: "Is this embroidered by my sister?"

"Well, I just embroidered halfway."

Zhao Lu got up and went closer to have a look, the bright red material was full of joy.Xiaodong is very practical in embroidery, and under the supervision of Master Wu, her handwork is much more diligent than before.

Zhao Lu frowned, Xiaodong asked suspiciously: "Brother, do you think the embroidery is not good?"

Zhao Lu made a bitter look: "Anywhere is fine...but I think my sister will not be able to make clothes, shoes and socks for me in the future, and I feel sour."

Xiaodong was angry and funny: "If my brother doesn't think I'm clumsy, I will make clothes for daddy and you in the future. But my brother will always marry his sister-in-law. At that time, my brother will definitely put my sister-in-law first in everything. Then look down on it."

Mrs. Hu and the other maids in the room all laughed, making Zhao Lu's face blush.

The matter of why Shen Jing divorced his marriage gradually became a bit of a rumor outside—if it was on someone else, the divorce would not be a big deal, but Shen Jing is different from others, his clothes are imitated by others, and his poems are copied. The whole city knows it.Ever since the news that he was going back to his hometown to get married, the ladies in the capital had wept so many handkerchiefs.Now that he actually found out that he was not married but divorced, Xiaodong is not the only one who suspects the reason.All kinds of theories are flying all over the sky, some say that Shen Jing is the descendant of the Wenqu star, that the girl from the Wen family is unworthy of her fate, that's why she got sick, and the Wen family's resignation is considered interesting.Others said that Miss Wen had a lover before she got engaged. Although she was quiet and handsome, Miss Wen still fell in love with an old vine and never changed her infatuation. , and maybe even if he tried to assassinate him——

Zhao Lu shook his head while talking: "It's just what I listened to. I don't know what to say if I didn't hear it. Well, the number one talent in Hedong has now become the number one sad talent in the capital. You don't know , even my colleagues shook their heads and sighed when they mentioned him, as if he had suffered a great misfortune..."

"Then why did the Wen family withdraw their marriage?"

Zhao Lu said in a humorous tone: "I want to know too, but Shen Jing's mouth is tighter than a clam shell, and I can't pry a word out."

Xiaodong asked Shen Fang, but Shen Fang also said she didn't know.

If she really doesn't know, or if she doesn't want to tell about other inside information, then I don't know.

After Qingming, there was no clear sky for several days in a row, the sky was gloomy and drizzled.Qin Lie secretly gave Xiaodong several times, sometimes it was stuff, sometimes it was a book.Xiaodong gave him a pouch as a gift in return.

Even though we can't see each other often, Xiaodong doesn't feel lost.Sometimes you can say a few words through the window, Xiaodong brought up the matter of silence, Qin Lie was silent outside for a moment, and said in a low voice: "The water in the Shen family is too deep, I guess there is another reason behind this divorce, The prince should know."

Xiaodong asked softly, "You heard that too?"

The outside is brighter than the inside, through the thin window paper, Xiaodong can see Qin Lie's blurred figure reflected on the window.

"Well, I've also heard people say that there is no marriage in Shen Jing's life. He has a good life and is too talented. For such a person, God will give him some, and he will definitely take away others."

"These guys are really going to hit the rocks."

"Yeah, he was a young man, and there were quite a few people who were jealous of him. Now that we have an opportunity, why don't we rush to take pleasure in other people's misfortunes?"

Yes.

After a while, Qin Lie whispered: "Actually... I was also somewhat jealous of him earlier, but now I am much luckier than him."
