Under Sheng Suihe's mediation, Sheng Weiqiao finally let go of the frightened Xu Baomo for the time being. He sat on the soft sedan with a cold face and ordered his servants to carry him back to the cabin on the third floor.
Sheng Suihe comforted Xu Baomo with some meaningful words and asked him to go back to his room to settle down. However, he took a few steps and caught up with Sheng Weiqiao and his party. He whispered: "Good girl, marriage is not a trivial matter. , even if you say angry words, you shouldn't insist on marrying Brother Xu Shi in public! If these words get out, it will not be a good thing for my good girl's reputation! "
"Originally, my grandfather and my parents had intended to agree to get married with the Xu family. Now that I have relented, it is just a docile act of obeying my elders. If word spreads, people will only say that I am well-behaved, sensible, filial and virtuous. Why do I have a bad reputation?" ?!" Sheng Weiqiao was still angry at Xu Baomo, and he still hated Sheng Suihe. Sheng Suihe's behavior just now seemed to show pity for Ao Luanjing, and he was also tempted. Hearing this, he immediately sneered, glanced at him sideways, and said, " Besides, dear brother, didn’t you say back then that you wanted to be the brother-in-law of Ning Weihou? Now my sister is willing to help you with the Xu family, why are you unhappy!? "
As he spoke, he waved his hand, not in the mood to continue talking to him, and motioned to his servants to carry him upstairs quickly.
Sheng Suihe stood there, his face calm, but his eyes were dim and unpredictable, and his emotions could not be clearly understood.
After a while, he turned around, walked downstairs, and went back to his room on the second floor.
After returning to the familiar cabin, Lu Jin and Lu Qi were worried about their brother-sister relationship as usual. While serving Sheng Weiqiao to undress and undress, they carefully coaxed: "Miss, the reason why the eldest young master just caught up with you and warned you is for your own good. After all, it's for your own good. In the past two years, under the supervision of Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xiahou, Prince Xu has reformed his ways and won the approval of the family's old masters, but judging from the situation when he knocked on Miss Ao's door tonight , after all, it’s still unreliable! How can you commit yourself to marrying just to torment him? Isn’t this a waste of yourself? The eldest son is probably worried about you being motivated, so he came here to persuade you specifically. "
The two maids were really worried about their master. They were just half-brothers and sisters, but they were one level apart from other siblings.
Now that Feng is pregnant, it will certainly shake Sheng Suihe's identity as the heir to the Sheng family, but will it not plant a thorn in Sheng Suihe's heart
If the eldest son is incompetent, forget it, but he is talented, and he will participate in the Spring Festival before he can reach the weak championship. Once the title of the gold list is announced, the Sheng family will no longer be able to control him. Thinking of the past, they will take revenge. , isn’t it a simple disaster
In and out of this conversation, Sheng Weiqiao was advised to go back and apologize to Sheng Suihe, explaining, "It's all the fault of Crown Prince Xu, if he hadn't sneaked up to the third floor today and caused this unmanageable mess." When trouble comes, the young lady will not repay her kindness and be so angry with Miss Ao! She even misunderstood the eldest young master! Although we are all a family, I think the eldest young master will not care about the young lady, but the maids said that this It's better to talk things over. After all, Miss Ao is so unwilling to avenge her kindness, and now they are on the same boat, and it is impossible to separate for the time being. Who knows whether she will use this as an opportunity to sow discord later? "
"Okay, I know what I'm doing. You don't need to be nagging, just serve me and make arrangements for you!" Sheng Weiqiao listened with a cold face, and then impatiently scolded him for a long time, "If I wait any longer, it's almost dawn, why should I sleep? ?”
When the two maids saw this, they just said that her lady's temper was getting worse. Once again they refused to listen to the advice. They were worried and sighed. After agreeing to put down the tent, they both left with deep thoughts, secretly wondering whether they should come forward privately under her banner. Sheng Suihe came to explain something
But he didn't know that Sheng Weiqiao turned over in the tent and buried his head in the quilt, feeling a headache: "That Sheng Sleeping Crane, what on earth did he think?"
- Previously, because she suspected that Sheng Suihe's tolerance towards her these past two days was just to paralyze her so that he could strike hard, she had no choice but to ask Ao Luanjing for help.
Tonight, when Sheng Suihe used Ao Luanjing's admiration for him to lure the girl to take the initiative to let him take charge of the overall situation, Sheng Weiqiao also thought that he had finally revealed his true colors and planned to use this matter to retaliate against himself. Even this matter was simply What Sheng Suihe did was aimed at her!
Unexpectedly, when she later refuted Ao Luanjing and pointed out the flaws in Ao Luanjing's words, Sheng Suihe stood by and watched without any intention of making amends for Ao Luanjing!
Although the flaws mentioned by Sheng Weiqiao were enough to make people think deeply, so much so that when Ao Luanxiao heard the words, she was ashamed to stay any longer. But based on her experience fighting against Sheng Sleeping Crane in the past two years, this sleeping crane couldn't be more cunning. If he was responsible for what happened tonight, how could Sheng Weiqiao let go of the relationship so easily
Even if Sheng Suihe was not the mastermind behind what happened tonight, it was Ao Luanjing who deliberately slandered him. With this person’s ability, if he really wanted to sidestep Ao Luanjing or deceive Sheng Weiqiao, there are plenty of ways!
But he didn't do anything - this made Sheng Weiqiao extremely suspicious, and he couldn't really determine what he was thinking!
So after the Ao brothers and sisters left, she used the excuse to interrogate Xu Baomo and secretly observed Sheng Suihe's reaction to see if he had any other back-ups. Then Sheng Suihe watched the battle calmly from beginning to end, as if he had never said before that he had vowed to "give justice to cousin Ao"!
If things only come to this point, Sheng Weiqiao still has doubts, so he will continue to wait and see.
The problem is that Xu Baomo wanted to die. He mentioned the incident of chaos and abandonment the year before last, which made Sheng Weiqiao furious. She angrily said that she must marry him. After that, Sheng Suihe accidentally threw the tea bowl and smoothed things over for them to disperse. It can also be said that it was careless and it was getting late and I didn’t want to spend any more time.
But following him up the stairs and asking Sheng Weiqiao if he really wanted to marry Xu Baomo really made Sheng Weiqiao think too much!
After all, Sheng Suihe had seen what happened when Sheng Wei Qiao Yun got married from the beginning. Sheng Wei Qiao said it herself that she wanted to marry into the Xu family just to get revenge on Xu Baomo.
This is clearly a threat made out of anger and cannot be taken seriously.
The most important thing is that they are still on the way to Chang'an without any elders around them, so even if Sheng Weiqiao really makes up his mind now, this matter will not be implemented in a moment.
In the middle of the night, with Sheng Suihe's shrewdness, even if he persuaded Sheng Weiqiao to calm down out of good intentions, as Lu Jin and Lu Qi thought, why should he be in a hurry
Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, when Sheng Weiqiao is less angry and calm down, persuading her will be more effective, right
"So, is he trying to make an impression on me, because he doesn't want me to marry into the Xu family? Or is he making a bad idea, deliberately using his tolerance and friendliness to contrast my willfulness and rudeness?" Sheng Weiqiao sat on the large brocade couch. After tossing and turning, she felt that her future was bleak - if Sheng Suihe had his way with her, even though the two were unrelated siblings, their names had been established. The most important thing was that she didn't have the confidence to stay with this person for the rest of her life. After all, haven't you suffered enough losses at the hands of Sheng Sleeping Crane in the past two years
Sheng Lanci and his wife have always given her the unspoken idea that when you marry, you must marry someone who can take charge, so that you will not be inferior to others as soon as you get out of the cabinet and have everything controlled.
Maybe she had been fooling around with Sheng Suihe in the past two years, and after knowing that this man was not her biological brother, she had some vague emotions in her heart, but it was only a little bit, and it was far from enough to give her confidence. Sheng Suihe has been with Sheng Suihe for a lifetime - when it comes to life-long matters, at least so far, she still recognizes the teachings of her parents.
Although Sheng Weiqiao always insisted that she was no worse than Sheng Suihe, this was just the girl's duplicity because she refused to admit defeat. She knew very well that under normal circumstances, she would not be able to fight against this so-called brother!
So if she chooses a husband based on "being manageable", she really feels that it would be better to choose Xu Baomo. At least she now sees through that boy's true nature. As long as she beats him hard, Xu Baomo, who seems to be suave, gentle and affectionate, will be defeated. Your Majesty, that is simply better than your grandson...
Now, if this brother, whom Sheng Weiqiao had absolutely no confidence in controlling, really developed feelings for her, Sheng Weiqiao thought of the losses she had suffered at his hands in the past two years, and felt that there were many dangers, "If he falls in love with me, even if I don't want to , will he pay attention?"
No matter how you think about it, Sheng Suihe couldn't possibly change his mind because of her rejection - after all, she was holding Sheng Suihe and begging so hard when she was practicing courage in the cemetery. This person had no room for change and was so hard-hearted. Outrageous!
Sheng Weiqiao's face changed as he recalled it now, "I didn't want to go to the cemetery at the beginning, let alone practice any courage, but he wanted to do it, so he did it regardless! Now if he makes a move on me and I refuse... "
Judging from her courage training back then, wouldn't Sheng Suihe tie her directly into the bridal chamber? !
No, the most terrifying thing is that Sheng Suihe kept her by his side and kept her captive. He didn’t even have an official title. After all, this was not the first time that this person had done things secretly, such as the courage training thing. , If Sheng Weiqiao hadn't been tricked by Feng by his aunt more than a year later, I'm afraid Sheng Lanci and his wife wouldn't even know about it now!
It is not impossible to hide her from the Sheng family, trap her quietly, and play with her wantonly!
"Maybe he will kill me when he gets tired of it later..." Sheng Weiqiao turned pale. She was originally very afraid of Sheng Suihe's revenge, but now that she thinks about it, she feels that Sheng Suihe's recent actions are just for revenge. , maybe it was a relatively good thing, because the most important thing that convinced Sheng Lan to accept him into the Sheng family was that he repaid his kindness.
So if he didn't like her, even if her recent behavior greatly angered him, it would be impossible to kill her. At most, she would follow in Gongsun Yingjiang's footsteps and be thrown into the sea, right
She had naturally avoided such an encounter before, but compared to being kept as a plaything by Sheng Sleeping Crane for the rest of her life, with this person's behavior that was deeply poisoned by Hawksbill Island, she might end up with "I like to be good too much". "That's why I have to lock up my dear daughter and not allow her to leave me. If my daughter has been by my side from the beginning, how could I force you?" Sheng Weiqiao felt confidently that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain!
It's just that although she would rather bear Sheng Suihe's revenge, she can't confirm Sheng Suihe's thoughts after all, and she can't ask him. After thinking about it, she finally gritted her teeth and said to herself: "Fortunately, he hasn't... He would point things out to me, and from time to time he would teach me a lesson as an elder brother! Although I don’t know if he did this because he hadn’t made up his mind to have anything with me, or because he wanted to paralyze me, but in that case, I might as well pretend I don’t know anything about it, so I just pretend to be my sister and make peace with him for the time being!”
"This time it is simply to send him and Xu Baomo to Chang'an to take the exam!"
"When we get back to Chang'an, there are not many days left until Chunwei. No matter what, he has to warm up and calm down, and prepare for the end!"
"In the meantime, until the gold list comes out, it's impossible for him to focus on me!"
"After the gold list comes out, if he is on the list, some socializing will be indispensable. Taking this opportunity, I will find an excuse to return to Nanfeng County. From now on, we will be far away from each other. What can he do to me? I don't believe he can still do it for me. I left my fame behind and went to Nanfeng County to find me!"
"If he fails the exam, he will go back to Nanfeng County together!"
"As long as I deal with him this time, I will have to show it off to my parents when I go back this time. Please ask them for help!!!"
Although there were homing pigeons on board the ship, Sheng Weiqiao, who knew Sheng Sleeping Crane was very difficult to deal with, did not dare to spread news that he could not know under his nose!
Otherwise, if Sheng Suihe finds out, he will be shooting himself in the foot.
After reviewing his plan several times, Sheng Weiqiao felt that according to the current trend, as long as there were no accidents, he could still escape quietly.
"Fortunately, I asked my parents for help and didn't let the Sleeping Crane know about it. I already know that he is not my brother's business!"
"Otherwise, why are you still pretending to be confused now?"
"Well, and Xu Baomo... Although I said I would marry him later to scare him, this bastard went too far!!!"
"If I really can't deal with Sheng Sleeping Crane alone, I will cause trouble and make a serious move to marry Xu Baomo - let that bastard block the disaster for me! Tell him to call me fierce! Tell him Always give up on me!!!"
After analyzing it carefully, Sheng Weiqiao felt calm and fell asleep unconsciously.
But she didn't know that not long after she fell asleep, the porthole suddenly opened quietly and a black figure flashed in.
The night lights in the room were only slightly dim, and the brocade curtain floated up and down. In the gap that had not been closed, the dim lights illuminated the cold profile of Sheng Sleeping Crane!
