I asked for it in vain

The first night before setting off for the hunting ground, Lu Mei was still checking to see if she had left anything behind. After all, she was going to stay there for more than ten days, so it would be uncomfortable if she lacked anything she needed.

"Lu Mei, remember to tell Man Niang that if there are customers who need customization, remember to leave a list and take good care of Yunxiu Workshop."

Shen Zhiyi raised her head and yawned. In order to be able to play with peace of mind, she had been burning the midnight oil these days to plan and plan the future development of Yunxiu Fang. She was so tired that she didn't sleep well for several days.

"I know, I have told my sister-in-law a long time ago that my eldest brother is also helping in the embroidery workshop, so don't worry."

Her eldest brother now no longer dares to work outside as a long-term laborer, fearing that his daughter-in-law will be approached by her unattractive parents again. However, the long-term labor force in Huaijing has been saturated for a long time, and it is hard to find a job for a while.

So Shen Zhiyi asked her eldest brother to do delivery and purchase work, and he also paid the monthly fee. Now the Lumei family is completely devoted to Shen Zhiyi.

Hearing Lu Mei's words, Shen Zhiyi felt relieved. The little girl mysteriously took out a few small porcelain bottles and handed them to Shen Zhiyi. She said in a low voice: "There are also these medicinal powders that the girl asked the slave to buy, and the slave also bought them." Coming."

Shen Zhiyi's eyes lit up and he looked at the porcelain bottle in Lu Mei's hand: "Put these medicine bottles in my makeup box, they will be of great use."

Lu Mei nodded and put the bottles in. Although she didn't understand why the lady bought these strange medicinal powders, since it was what the lady needed, she naturally did it.

In the early morning of the next day, Shen Zhiyi was taken into a carriage while she was still awake. The bumpy ride on the carriage made her feel even more sleepy.

The eastern suburbs are a bit far away. It was already noon when they arrived. The sun was shining warmly outside. For a moment, Shen Zhiyi wanted to play chess with Duke Zhou even more. The little girl yawned and walked out, maybe because she was sleepy. Without being able to clearly see his feet, he tripped over a protruding stone and staggered forward.

Meng Xuan'an looked at her and wanted to reach out to help her, but there was a pair of hands faster than him. Jiang Huaice took a long step and walked to Shen Zhiyi in just a few steps. The man opened his hands and held her firmly in his arms. The smile on his face was like the loosening of ice in winter.

"Zhizhi, are you okay?"

Hearing his voice, Shen Zhiyi lost all drowsiness and struggled to get out of his arms, but he didn't expect that his hands would tighten even more. How come this man, after all, was even more shameless!

"Let me go."

The little girl had a cold face and her hands were still pushing him, but his chest was harder than a stone. After struggling for a long time, she didn't move at all. Jiang Huaice laughed and lowered his eyes to see her frustrated look. He only found it interesting. .

Her strength, which was as strong as a kitten's, didn't seem like she was pushing him, but rather like she was tickling his heart. This angry and annoyed look was exactly the same as the milk dumplings she had when she was a child.

"If you don't let go, I'm going to call someone!"

Shen Zhiyi raised her head and met his smiling eyes, full of anger. He looked at her, shook her in his arms, and then raised his voice: "Miss Shen's feet seem to be sprained. I will send you there." Let’s set up camp.”

"I won't bother you, Lord Marquis."

Before Shen Fu finished speaking, he saw the always unkind Marquis Changping turning around and leaving with his precious daughter in his arms. Looking at that figure from behind, he felt a little happy???

His face was full of doubts, and the others also had different thoughts. Shen Shaowei and Shen Shaoqing frowned and glanced at each other. Could it be that Marquis Changping really fell in love with Zhizhi?

Jiang Huaice walked forward with Shen Zhiyi in his arms. He deliberately bypassed crowded places, which made the journey longer. Shen Zhiyi looked away from him and only said: "Jiang Huaice, can you have a little face?" "

She had been married to him for five years, but she never knew why in the eyes of outsiders, he had always been a well-behaved person, but how could he become so shameless in this life? She slapped him and said such harsh words, but the result was good, he was like It's just like everyone else, the closer they stick, the tighter they become.

"Zhizhi, I said you will always be my wife. I know you are angry now. It doesn't matter. I will find evidence and solve all the mysteries of my past life, and we will be together again."

His words were affectionate, and the look he looked down at her was so gentle. Shen Zhiyi clenched a fist with one hand, and then said: "Then what? I will be imprisoned by you again, watch the Shen family being raped and beheaded, and supervise the trial. He is the good son-in-law in my father's mouth?"

"Why can't you let me go? I've made it very clear. I'm not happy at all with you. Do you know how painful my life has been in the past five years? You can be anyone's husband. , but in this life, you will never be my husband, Shen Zhiyi."

Every time she said something, she could feel the light in his eyes drop a little bit. Until she finished speaking, his eyes were completely dim, but the hands holding her still dared not let go. He was afraid that if he let go, she would It will fly away like a kite with its string broken.

"I, I know I'm sorry for you. What you said, I will find a way to make it up to you."

"To make up for it? The Shen Zhiyi who was waiting for you to come back and love her is already dead. Who are you looking for to make up for it?"

Shen Zhiyi looked at him and struggled out of his arms. She stood on the ground and looked at the green grass with a few buds growing on the side. She turned around and left without looking back.

Green grass can regenerate, but people can't. If the heart is dead, how can it beat again? Everything in the world will bloom again in spring, but the girl who died in the cold winter and once extravagantly pursued love will not wait for spring. .

Her words were like a sharp thorn, piercing into Jiang Huaice's heart. He wanted to refute, wanted to tell her that this was not the case, but when the words came to his lips, he found that what he wanted to say was so pale and weak.

Everything his branches experienced was caused by him. It was his vain pursuit, his greed, and his self-righteousness. He always thought that as long as they waited a little longer, they would wait for the day when spring flowers bloom again.

But it wasn't until today that he discovered that the girl who loved to laugh, play, and was a bit squeamish, the Gergentuya who he thought about day and night, never smiled again after marrying him.

Jiang Huaice closed his eyes and recalled that when he was young, she said, "Everything will be fine, can I take you home?" Her soft heart made him push forward and want to possess her completely.

People who yearn for freedom and dawn are eventually led into darkness by his own hands.

"But Zhizhi, how can I let go willingly?"

When he opened his eyes again, the man's eyes were full of anger. He would not let go of anyone who had hurt her, including himself.

When Shen Zhi walked back to the Shen family's tent in high spirits, Shen Shaowei looked at her vigorous steps and smiled and said, "Aren't your feet sprained?"

"Sister, you are making fun of me too!"

Shen Zhiyi now looked like a cat with furry hair. Shen Shaowei stepped forward and pinched her bulging face: "Okay, I get angry after saying a few words to you. No wonder my brother said you have become more and more squeamish recently."

"Brother is talking nonsense again!"

She raised her head and acted coquettishly towards her sister. Only in front of her relatives could she feel at ease.

Jiang: Zhizhi, you have a sprained foot.

What a scheming dog man!
