Section 19 Doubt(1/2)
After playing a few songs happily, Miss Zhao offered a cup of tea with both hands: "Master Xu, please."
After taking the tea and drinking it down in one gulp, Xu Ping didn't think much, he opened his mouth and said: "We don't know each other, but our hearts are always thinking about each other. Let's raise the glasses together and talk for three thousand years."
This poem was written by Xu Ping silently for Miss Zhao in his heart. After playing the piano, he suddenly felt excited and blurted it out. The girl lowered her eyes and pondered for a while, then asked: "I heard... Mr. Xu recently got married."
"Ah, yes, yes." Xu Ping remembered that Miss Zhao might be a fellow sect member of the Zhao family. He had secretly inquired about this, but he never found out.
"Sister Zhao is a good friend of the little girl." Miss Zhao put down the cup gently and said to Xu Ping with a smile: "I heard that Mrs. Zhao intends to recruit Mr. Xu to be her son-in-law. The little girl also feels that Sister Zhao and Mr. Xu are
It’s a match made in heaven.”
"Well...Xu Ping was born in a poor family. If he doesn't have the merits, he is not worthy of the Zhao family."
"I heard that the New Army held a great performance two days ago. With Young Master Xu's talent, he must have won a worldly position?"
Xu Ping was stunned. The young lady in front of him actually knew so much about the New Army! However, he immediately thought that Miss Zhao was a general and her father might also be a general of the New Army. He immediately replied: "Ms. Zhao is laughing at me. I can't do that."
Obtain a worldly vocation.”
"Ah, why is this?"
"The army has its own laws." Xu Ping was unwilling to say more on this issue. In addition, he believed that the worldly position was just his own possession, and it was just a matter of sooner or later.
"Is Mr. Xu still white now?"
"Of course it's not Bai Shen," the regret in the other party's eyes deeply irritated Xu Ping, and he blurted out: "I have been appointed as the commander of the Changqing Battalion of the New Army, with the title of guerrilla."
"Ah, it turns out to be General Xu. Sorry." Miss Zhao said excitedly with a smile on her face, clasping her hands together: "My little girl should have known that Mr. Xu is not a thing in the pool. This is not an insult to the Zhao family. Rumeng Bu
I’m willing to give up, and the little girl is willing to go and renew the past with Mrs. Zhao on the general’s behalf.”
Xu Ping said in surprise: "Mrs. Zhao, what are you talking about?"
"Didn't General Xu just say that the reason why he politely declined the Zhao family's kindness in the past was because he felt that the family was inappropriate? With General Xu's current status, of course there is no problem."
"But..." Xu Ping argued hurriedly: "I have already adopted Mrs. Zhao as my adoptive mother. Miss Zhao and I are adopted brothers and sisters. This is inconsistent with etiquette."
"General Xu's surname is Xu and not Zhao. Since he has not changed his religion, how can he be inconsistent with the etiquette?" Seeing that Xu Ping was speechless, Miss Zhao smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. Xu's worries have been dispelled. That little girl...
"
"I didn't mean that!" Xu Ping said loudly and decisively.
Xu Ping immediately realized that he was rude and quickly lowered his head and said: "Xu Ping was rude, please forgive me, Mrs. Zhao."
After the words were interrupted, Miss Zhao looked at Xu Ping silently. Qiuyue pursed her lips and seemed a little unhappy. Xu Ping sighed, stood up and bowed deeply to the girl: "I dare to ask what Mrs. Zhao is called in the family?"
Qiuyue bit her lip and looked up and down Xu Ping. Miss Zhao did not answer but whispered: "Qiuyue, go call the store to pay the bill."
"Xu Ping is reckless and rude, Miss Zhao is so proud." Hearing this, Xu Ping sighed again, clasped his fists again and said, "I don't know what I call you here, but I dare you to ask Miss Zhao to give me some advice."
Following Qiuyue's greeting, a waiter came and stood outside the door to talk to Qiuyue. Miss Zhao still did not answer, but just said: "Mr. Xu, please sit down."
Xu Ping slowly sat back on the chair.
Soon Qiuyue returned to the house and said to the young lady: "Miss, the account has been settled."
Hearing this, Xu Ping stood up again. Miss Zhao didn't wait for him to speak and said: "Mr. Xu, the little girl is going back. I wonder if Mr. Xu would be willing... would you like to escort her for a while?"
Xu Ping was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly replied: "Dare you disobey me?"
The three people walked downstairs slowly. The people in the store just thought it was an officer coming out with his female family members. No one paid much attention to it. When they walked out of the store, Miss Zhao said: "Young Master Xu, you might as well talk about the war chess, the little girl is so talented."
I heard the beginning."
Xu Ping was about to speak when he suddenly gasped and saw a few big men walking towards him. Who could they be if they weren't Cao Yun and his group? These men stared blankly ahead and strode towards them, each one pretending to be indifferent.
When I met Xu Ping, looking at him was like looking at a stranger.
Seeing Xu Ping's strange expression, Miss Zhao asked: "Mr. Xu, what's the matter?"
Xu Ping hurriedly smiled and said: "Nothing, nothing. I just happened to think of an important task in the army, but there is no rush. I have to do it tomorrow."
These people must be very curious and insist on seeing what Xu Ping's crush looks like. However, seeing their behavior, Xu Ping probably won't say hello to him, so Xu Ping also plans to pretend that he doesn't know them and wait until he returns to the military camp.
I'll settle the score with these guys later.
Xu Ping just felt a little relieved when he heard Miss Zhao exclaim. Looking closely, Miss Zhao had covered the lower half of her face with her sleeves and stopped.
The leader of the group, Jin Shentong, had stopped in his tracks, with an incredible expression on his face, and shouted out loud: "Little sister!"
Miss Zhao replied in an inaudible voice: "Brother Jin."
Cao Yun and others who had planned to pass by Xu Ping immediately stopped and looked at Jin Qiude and then at Miss Zhao. Among all the people, only Qiuyue still looked innocent. She looked at Xu Ping first and then at Jin.
With magical powers, he finally looked at the bewildered young lady, completely confused as to what had happened.
It was Jin Shentong who was the first to return to normal. He reluctantly pulled his eyes away from Miss Zhao, walked to Xu Ping in a few steps, and said: "Brother Xu, this is..."
The girl had already lowered her head in shame, but when she heard Jin Shentong speak, she shouted urgently: "Brother Jin!"
Jin Shentong was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Miss Zhao and then at Xu Ping: "This... this little girl is... is..."
"Brother Jin," the girl called again, "How are you doing, your father? How are you doing?"
Jin Shentong gave a wry smile, shook his head without answering, and said hesitantly to Xu Ping, "It's a member of the family Yan...the daughter of an old friend."
Xu Ping realized that they were hiding something, and that he was the one they wanted to hide. At this time, Xu Ping's face was as tense as a stone.
Seeing this, Jin Shentong hurriedly defended: "Brother Xu, don't get me wrong, this girl and I are close friends..."
Seeing that Xu Ping's face was ashen, Jin Shentong was speechless and could no longer explain, and suddenly said loudly: "It was an accident... I was reckless... I'll say goodbye." He waved his hand and strode away without looking back.
Jin Shentong's figure disappeared on the street in a flash. Lin Guangyi said to Xu Ping: "I'm sorry." He ran to catch up with Jin Shentong. Cao Yun and the others also trotted dejectedly, chasing Lin Guangyi's back. In the blink of an eye,
Only Xu Ping, Miss Zhao and Qiu Yue were left.
Xu Ping tightened his mouth and turned around to face Miss Zhao. She lowered her head and turned sideways to Xu Ping and said softly to Qiuyue: "The man just now is the young master of the Jin family - Jin Shentong."
"Ah——" Qiuyue's face flushed with anxiety: "Miss, I don't know him."
"I know it's not your fault." Miss Zhao has returned to normal. She comforted Qiuyue and said, "I don't blame you either."
Miss Zhao seemed to have made up her mind and said in a calm tone: "Mr. Xu, young lady... my surname is not Zhao."
It was not that Xu Ping had never thought that "Miss Zhao" might have given a false surname. The encounter in front of the Zhao Mansion made Xu Ping give up this doubt for a while, but after entering the flower hall of the Zhao Mansion, Xu Ping had doubts again.
Today, he always addressed her as Mrs. Zhao, and the other party had no intention of correcting her. Just now, "Miss Zhao" kept speaking out to prevent the Golden God Channel from revealing the truth. Now she admitted that she was lying. Recalling a series of things, Xu Ping felt that
There was a dull pain, filled with the feeling of being deceived and insulted.
"I wanted to point to the door of the house and tell General Xu that I am the daughter of that family when General Xu arrived at the door of his house." At this time, Miss Zhao swept away her previous girlish attitude, and there was no trace of shyness on her face.
Fang Fangdi told Xu Ping: "My surname is Huang."
Xu Ping was stunned for a moment, and then he was stunned by the hidden meaning in these words. He heard his own rapid breathing, and his body involuntarily took a step back, and squeezed out a few words of surprise from his lips: "
Yellow? Yellow—yellow?”
"Yes." Miss Huang nodded: "Jiayan is the Marquis of Zhendong."
…
Miss Huang and Qiuyue walked in front, and Xu Ping, who followed a few steps behind them, looked like a follower. After learning the true identity of the other party, Xu Ping only felt dizzy. He fought desperately to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
Xu Ping, who endured humiliation and suffered all kinds of hardships in the military academy, finally became a leader among his peers. However, the status difference between him and Miss Huang is still too great. Xu Ping now does not even have a job in a hundred households. It is not that he has no job.
The story of a poor scholar who was favored by the prime minister's daughter, but Xu Ping knew that it was just a story. What's more, even in the story, the poor scholar had to get the first prize in order to win the beauty.
Huang Shi is the boss of Xu Ping's boss, and is a Marquis of the imperial court. Not to mention Miss Huang's mother and the title of princess. Xu Ping knows very well that Miss Huang's marriage will definitely alarm the emperor and the imperial court, and whether it is the royal family
It is impossible for both the government and the public to agree that the daughter of a noble noble in the imperial court should marry a small officer. Finally, Miss Huang is also the daughter of a real daughter of a daughter, while Xu Ping, not to mention a daughter of a daughter, even took a betrothal gift of one hundred taels of silver.
Not coming out. Therefore, no matter what Miss Huang has in mind, Xu Ping's wish can be regarded as wishful thinking.
"Perhaps when Miss Huang asked me to take her home at first, she just wanted to point out the mansion to me, hinting that I should quit in the face of difficulties." Xu Ping thought in his mind, and unknowingly he saw the Hou Mansion from a distance.
The person in front stopped, as if he didn't want to be seen by the people in front of the house. Xu Ping stopped politely five steps away from Miss Huang.
"Thank you, General Xu, for sending me off. I'll be here soon. Please come back, General Xu." Miss Huang said loudly, and her words confirmed Xu Ping's guess.
Then I only need to say one more polite word to say goodbye and end this hopeless relationship. All I need to say is "I will send you my best regards." - Xu Ping has no right to claim to be mine in front of the daughter of the Marquis.
"The last general..." Xu Ping cupped his fists and saluted, and said: "The last general dares to ask the lady to stand aside."
This request surprised Miss Huang. Qiuyue stared at Xu Ping in surprise, but he kept his mouth shut and remained unmoved.
Miss Huang hesitated and waved her hand. Qiuyue took a few steps back and turned around. Miss Huang nodded towards Xu Ping and said, "General Xu can speak now."
"After being rescued by Miss Meng in the first month, the general will never forget the end."
Hearing Xu Ping talk about the fight in the teahouse, Miss Huang smiled slightly: "General Xu is being too modest. I don't dare to take it. Besides, it's just a simple effort."
Xu Ping continued talking to himself: "That day, the young lady told the general that the young lady's surname was 'Zhao', and the general did everything possible to find out about the young lady's house."
Miss Huang's face turned red, and then she showed a little anger. But Xu Ping turned a blind eye: "At that time, the lady said that your father has a close relationship with the New Army, and the general is stupid. From the beginning to the end, he thought that your father was working for the New Army, and there was no such thing.
It occurred to me that it was the new army that was working for your father."
Hearing this, Miss Huang smiled again: "I also have a lot of concerns, General Xu can definitely understand."
Xu Ping turned a deaf ear to this sentence and continued: "As far as the general knew at that time, the late General Zhao in the new army could be called a general, so the general believed that the lady was the daughter of General Zhao. The Battle of Dezhou
Before, if he had not seen General Zhao coming to the general's post, he would never have volunteered to go to Dongsen Camp. Later, he pretended to be a general, just because General Zhao died for his country. At that time, he deeply regretted not being able to protect him.
To be continued...
