The shrewd wife of the black-bellied prince

Chapter 155: To Be Eaten (3)
The two went out of the palace gate and got into the carriage.

"Girl, I won't go to the Prime Minister's Mansion these ten days. You have to be good and stay in the Qingxiao courtyard. I will marry you after ten days." Mu Zifeng held Lin Xiao'er in his arms and kissed her. her forehead, said with a smile.

"Why? Could it be that you really believed in that custom? It's okay. You can still come these few days, but it's not good if my mother finds out. You can come in over the wall." Lin Xiaoer glanced at him sideways and smiled. He said, Mu Zifeng really didn't dare to come, but Lin Xiaoer's heart was sweet at the moment, he was afraid that something might go wrong in these ten days, so in these ten days, he didn't dare to come. When he came to see her, even if he knew that it was nothing but nonsense that the two parties should not meet each other ten days before they got married, he would rather believe and obey. Lin Xiaoer suddenly discovered that Mu Zifeng at this moment was so innocent and cute.

"Girl, I won't come here within ten days. You are not allowed to be naughty at home, and wait for me to marry you." Mu Zifeng smiled slightly, and did not deny what the girl said. He was indeed afraid of making a slight mistake. , although it is difficult for him not to see the girl for ten days, he will endure it.

"You fool." Lin Xiaoer caressed Mu Zifeng's jade-like face with both hands, a little dumbfounded.

However, after sending Lin Xiaoer back that day, Mu Zifeng really didn't come back, but every day, Xiaomu would send a letter, the letter was nothing more than saying how much he missed you, did you miss me, or Just wait at home for me to marry you, don't go out these few days, etc.

On the first day, Lin Xiaoer would reply a letter, and Xiaomu would bring it back. Within 10 minutes, Xiaomu came again with another letter in his hand. Lin Xiaoer couldn't bear Xiaomu to run around again, so she didn't bother to reply again. Anyway, there was nothing important in the letter, but even if Lin Xiaoer didn't reply to the letter, Xiaomu would come to the Prime Minister's Mansion at least once a day.

There is only one day left until the wedding day, these ten days, Lin Xiaoer really obediently did not go out, just stayed in her small courtyard, while Xiaohuan and the others were so busy that they couldn't rest for a moment.

"Miss." Lin Xiaoer lay on the table and dozed off boredly, when she heard a soft call from the door.

"Xiaohuan, what's the matter?" Lin Xiaoer opened her eyes, straightened her body, saw Xiaohuan standing at the door, hesitant to speak, and asked in puzzlement.

"Miss, the Fifth Young Master is here, do you see him or not?" Xiaohuan walked into the room and asked.

"Xiao Wu is here, see you, why didn't you see me?" Lin Xiaoer said with a smile.

"But, but the Fifth Young Master is to Miss, you..." Xiaohuan was a little anxious, and hesitated for a long time, but still did not finish this sentence.

"You want to say that he likes me, right? That happened five years ago, it's okay, let him in." Lin Xiaoer still smiled calmly, but in fact, the second senior brother and Xiao Wu have been here almost It's been a month, and she hasn't said a word to him alone. She doesn't know whether she is avoiding it on purpose or if she really has nothing to say. Well, he must be able to completely untie the knot in his heart.

After a short while, he heard footsteps coming from the outside, and when he looked up, Xiao Huan had walked in with Xiao Wu.

"Xiao'er." Xiao Wu's smile was still gentle, but at this moment it seemed a little desolate and bitter.

Lin Xiaoer signaled Xiaohuan to step back first, "Xiao Wu, you're here, sit down." Lin Xiaoer said with a smile, her eyebrows curved.

Xiao Wu nodded, and sat down at the table. For a while, neither of them knew what to say, and after a while, Xiao Wu said: "Xiao'er, you will be married to Third Senior Brother tomorrow, and I wish you all the best forever." happiness."

"Well, we will be happy, Xiao Wu. One day, you will meet the right person, marry her, and grow old hand in hand with her." Lin Xiaoer said with a smile.

"I hope, Xiao'er. In fact, I have always liked you for five years. Five years ago, I lied to you when I said I would never like you again. I can't control my heart. I know that you will fall in love tomorrow." I'm going to marry the third senior brother. I think if I don't say it today, I don't think I will have the chance to say it in my life. I know that I am selfish. I actually said this to you the day before you are going to get married. Speaking of which, I just hope you, Xiao’er, don’t hate me.” Xiao Wu’s hand at his side was already clenched into a fist, and after saying these words, he suddenly felt a sense of relief, it’s good to say it , just say it.

Lin Xiaoer heard this and said that it was a lie that there was no shock in her heart, but after all, it is too late to meet each other. Maybe she met Xiao Wu before she met Zifeng. Maybe the person she likes is Xiao Wu, but in this world It's so cruel, it doesn't exist at all Maybe, everything is a foregone conclusion, if you don't cut it off, it will only make the other person more and more trapped by the thread of love, until the body is bruised and suffocated to death, "Xiao Wu, I won't I hate you, it’s just that you said these words once, this love shouldn’t exist, it’s a mistake, so no matter how uncomfortable you are, you have to let it go, we can still be friends, otherwise, I won't see you again." Lin Xiaoer knew that what she said was cruel, but she had to do it, and she could only do it this way, and she didn't know that he liked him for five years, and if he didn't mention it, she just pretended I don't know, try to stay as far away from him as possible when you can, hoping that this feeling will fade away, but after all, he has come to this point, he said it, and pierced the thin layer of paper between the two. Only by killing him completely can he gain a new life.

Xiao Wu's body visibly trembled, the light in his eyes shattered like transparent glass, making people feel distressed for no reason, but Lin Xiaoer didn't move, just looking at him lightly.

"I see, I won't say these words in the future, can we still be friends in the future?" Xiao Wu's voice trembled, with a slight pleading.

"Of course we can still be friends, but from now on, you need to get rid of the feelings in your heart, you will always be my good brother." Lin Xiaoer avoided his gaze and said cruelly.

"Well, Xiao'er, I will work hard." Xiao Wu nodded and stood up, "Then I will go back first, tomorrow, tomorrow I will come to drink the wedding wine between you and the third senior brother."

"Well, you and the second senior brother should go there earlier tomorrow." Lin Xiaoer also stood up, smiled and sent Xiao Wu to the door.

Xiao Wu took a deep look at Lin Xiaoer, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance deeply into his mind, into his heart, and then walked away without looking back, his feet were a little staggered, and his steps were a little messy , Knowing that he was out of Qingxiao Courtyard, Xiao Wu felt the decisive and clear eyes behind him disappear, and a wry smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, trying to forget, it's not easy!
Lin Xiao'er looked at Xiao Wu's thin back that was fading away, she didn't move for a long time, and finally just sighed, turned and went back to the house.
