Tong Xiaoye was slightly startled, and looked up at Xuan Jinmo. His face was filled with expectancy and tenderness, and his eyes were looking at her quietly, with a hidden attachment that made her heart beat. She blushed, lowered her head, and whispered softly.
Said: "Brother Jinmo, I should dismount."
Xuan Jinmo paused for a moment and said nothing, but he got off the horse and helped Tong Xiaoye get off the horse. He watched her give him a gentle salute, then turned around and left in a hurry, as if she was eager to escape from him.
Xuan Jin remained silent, watching Tong Xiaoye's figure enter the gate, pause for a while, get on his horse, and go away in the direction of his mansion.
After breakfast, Tong Ke and his party left General Tong's Mansion and sat on the carriage. Tong's wife looked at Tong Xiaoye who was looking out the window quietly, hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Xiaoye, how are you going to deal with Jin Mo?"
Disposal?"
Tong Xiaoye withdrew her gaze, looked at her mother, and said calmly: "The engagement has been broken, let's forget it. Besides, with my status, one more thing is worse than one less thing. I don't want my affairs to affect the entire General's Mansion."
The child wife hesitated and said nothing.
It was a sunny morning, with the smell of early winter, and a thin mist on the river. Tong Xiaoye was sitting alone by the river. It had been ten days since he came back. It was quiet and quiet here, and his father had always loved it. He was a lazy person in his official career.
, I most like to live a quiet life like this. Tong Xiaoye also likes it. Although it is not as prosperous as Kyoto, it has a quiet atmosphere, especially it is very close to the Daxing Dynasty. If you want, you can visit the people of the Daxing Dynasty at any time.
If it hadn't been for her brother's accident, she really didn't know that she was from the Daxing Dynasty, and she was from the imperial family. She just stayed with her parents for a long time and felt reluctant to leave, so she came back. Fortunately, her family there was very kind.
Be tolerant and don't blame.
Tong Xiaoye was a little surprised when he heard the sound of horse hooves. At this time, few people came to this place except his parents and family members. The sound of horse hooves was a little urgent, coming in this direction.
Just as he was about to turn around, he heard someone shouting happily, "Xiaoye——"
The voice was very familiar, but it startled Tong Xiaoye. He stood up, looked back and saw a horse running quickly and stopped in front of him. The man on the horse dismounted, smiled, and stood in front of him.
"Why, you don't recognize me anymore?"
"Brother Jinmo?" Tong Xiaoye stared at the person in front of him in disbelief.
"It's me." Xuan Jinmo was a little tired from the journey, so he dragged Tong Xiaoye to sit down where he was just now. It was a long piece of wood, cut in half, and built into a wooden bench, "Did you miss me?"
Tong Xiaoye's face turned red and he whispered: "Brother Jin Mo is getting worse as he learns more."
Xuan Jinmo laughed and seemed quite happy. He looked at Tong Xiaoye's fishing rod and said, "You are so leisurely here, fishing alone here."
"Why are you here?" Tong Xiaoye asked softly, somewhat strangely.
"I came here to see you after I sent Jinyan to the border." Xuan Jinmo said lightly, leaning towards Tong Xiaoye casually, and said a little tiredly, "I'm going to take a rest, I've been driving, I'm very tired, but,
Don’t stop us from talking.”
Tong Xiaoye wanted to get away, but seeing his brows furrowed slightly and his face showing tiredness, he hesitated for a moment, his body just trembled slightly and remained motionless.
Xuan Jin silently leaned against Tong Xiaoye, and said calmly and tiredly: "I know maybe Jinyan should be allowed to choose by herself, but now that she has married cousin Hua'an, how to arrange for her to be cousin Hua'an?
Regarding the decision, I only told my cousin Hua An that if we give Jinyan another half a year, if she is still stubborn, let her go."
Tong Xiaoye hesitated and said softly: "If you are tired, you can go to the house and rest for a while."
"No, I just want to take a rest here. I have to rush back to Kyoto. There are still many things waiting for me to take care of there."
, I’ll leave.”
Tong Xiaoye was stunned.
"Xiaoye, the fish is hooked." Xuan Jinmo suddenly said with a smile.
Tong Xiaoye looked at the fishing rod blankly, and then watched Xuan Jinmo pull up the fishing rod for her, and a fat fish jumped in the early morning sun, "Haha, not bad, quite fat, by the way, Xiaoye, are there any here?"
Pot, I’ll make a fish soup for you to drink.”
"Uh, yes, there is one in the wooden house next to it. My parents usually bring me and my brothers here, and they also catch fish and cook it directly." Tong Xiaoye pointed to a place about 20 meters to the right of where they were sitting.
, there is a small wooden house there.
"Excellent." Xuan Jinmo stood up, brought the fish up, and then smiled at Tong Xiaoye, "How about trying my skills today. I have already told my uncle that they know that I am here with you, so there is no need to worry about them.
Someone will come and call you."
Tong Xiaoye quietly looked at Xuan Jinmo who was busy and smelled the fragrant fish soup aroma in the air. She did not expect that Xuan Jinmo would do such housework. Everyone said that he had always been a cold and ruthless guy.
"Come on, let's try how it tastes?" Xuan Jin greeted Tong Xiaoye with a silent smile.
"Oh." Tong Xiaoye responded, stood up and walked over to Xuan Jinmo. Xuan Jinmo scooped up a spoonful of fish soup, blew it and passed it to Tong Xiaoye's lips, watched her drink it, and then said with a smile, "Jin Mo
Brother, your craftsmanship is much better than daddy’s."
"Really?" Xuan Jinmo laughed and said, "Then do you want brother Jinmo to make delicious food for you to eat every day?"
The surface of Tong Xiao's leaves turned red, and I didn't know what to say.
"The day I broke up with you, I went straight back to my hometown, packed my things, picked up Jinyan and took her to the border. It took some time on the way. This time I return to Kyoto, I will go to the Tongjiang Mansion in person to propose marriage." Xuan Jinmo said with a smile.
, "I hope General Tong can forgive me for my impulsiveness at that time."
Tong Xiaoye was about to speak.
"I know I went too far and it was my fault, but now I sincerely want to marry you." Xuan Jinmo looked at Tong Xiaoye and said seriously, "I'll wait until you get married from six
It’s really hard for me to grow up to this point. Considering that it’s been ten years since I was fifteen to now twenty-five, can you please forgive me this time?”
He was clearly apologizing, but Xuan Jinmo said it with deep affection, which made Tong Xiaoye look shy, blushing, and bowed his head in silence.
Xuan Jinmo just looked at Tong Xiaoye and didn't speak.
"I heard from dad that the emperor has made you a prince and allowed you to choose one of his daughters to be your wife." Tong Xiaoye changed the subject and said with a smile.
Xuan Jinmo smiled lightly, "Are you talking about Princess Tianxiang?"
Tong Xiaoye smiled and said, "If you didn't tell me, I would almost forget her. By the way, how is she now?"
