Xu Qian didn't want to help Ayu.
He dared not call himself a gentleman, but he had never done anything to be a frivolous woman. Just now he saw the fourth girl fainting on the ground and wanted to wake her up, but when the little girl woke up, she treated him as a hungry wolf with her eyes full of vigilance.
Does he look like that kind of person?
Although Ayu believes in him for the time being, once he goes to help him, if she accidentally encounters her, will she believe that he has an inappropriate thought?
It is better to avoid suspicion when you are in the melon field.
"There is a difference between men and women, and I can't touch you. Please wait a little longer. If you see a maid and maid, you will say you accidentally fell."
Xu Qian refused Ayu without hesitation and left after saying that.
But he didn't go far.
The little girl is beautiful and bullied. There are many young men in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and the servants often go to the garden to do things. Xu Qian cannot guarantee that his nephews and servants are honest people.
Walking to the corner, Xu Qian hid behind a piece of green bamboo. From his perspective, he could see everything around Ayu, but others could not see him.
Ayu didn't know that Xu Qian was guarding her in secret. She ended up like this with a greedy and drunken ending up in such a situation. She just started begging someone but was rejected by someone with a cold face. Ayu was embarrassed and scared, and tears came out like a spring water.
After crying for a while, Ayu gritted his teeth and tried to sit up. He tried all his strength, but he just barely leaned on the flower tree next to him, and he could no longer do the rest.
Sitting there alone, thinking that her cousin would definitely come to find her when she found out that she was missing, and Xu Qiong might have come too. If Xu Qiong found out that she had eaten fruit wine, Xu Qiong would definitely laugh to death. The most terrifying thing is that she is now weak, what if the first person to find out that she is a very brave villain?
The more A Yu thought about it, the more he regretted it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he would encounter danger at any time. Looking around, although A Yu did not cry, his shoulders could not help but tremble.
Xu Qian, who was observing in secret, saw it, frowned, and finally walked out.
The tall man came towards her. Ayu wiped his eyes and realized that Xu Qian had returned.
Looking at Xu Qian's cold face, Ayu wanted to beg again, but was afraid that he would reject him again, so he wanted to say but dare not say it. The watery almond's eyes were full of grievances.
Xu Qian suddenly felt that it was all his fault that she cried like this.
"Do you still want me to help me?" Xu Qian asked with a tense face, so as not to calm down. She thought he was happy to take advantage of her.
Just as a drowning man caught the side of the boat, Ayu looked at him with sobs: "You want it!"
She said so urgently, as if she was afraid that he would repent.
Xu Qian leaned down and whispered, "I can't carry you around, there's a rockery next to you. I'll take you there first and wait until you recover your strength before leaving."
Ayu nodded repeatedly. As long as he could avoid being discovered, laughed at or bullied, she agreed wherever Xu Qian took her.
Then Xu Qian pinched one of her arms and lifted the person up.
This action made the two of them have the least contact with each other, but Xu Qian had to work very hard to get Ayu to stand up. Ayu was spoiled in the Hou Mansion, with a skin and tender flesh than tofu. When Xu Qian pinched her shoulders, it felt like she was pinched by two super big crab claws, and it hurts so much.
Ayu was in pain, but she didn't dare to despise her fifth cousin in front of her, so she just turned pale and tears fell silently.
I can't help it anymore.
Anyway, she was crying all the time, but Xu Qian didn't expect that he had hurt others when he saw it. When Ayu stood up, he quickly let go of his left hand and only pinched one of Ayu's arms with his right hand: "Can you leave like this?"
Before he finished speaking, Ayu's body lost his balance and fell.
Xu Qian had to "help" her with both hands again.
But walking will be very slow.
Xu Qian didn't want to be seen with Ayu, and he didn't want to be misunderstood that Ayu was bullied and cried, so he simply turned behind Ayu, pinched Ayu's armpit with both hands, and lifted Ayu about one foot away from the ground like a child. At the same time, Ayu's back was also kept at the same distance from his chest.
"You can't leave, you can only do this."
Xu Qian whispered, then strode towards the rockery with Ayu.
Ayu had shoulder pain just now, but now it turned into armpit pain. Xu Qian's hands turned from big pliers to big iron forks in a blink of an eye.
Finally, Xu Qian put it on the ground of a hidden cave in the rockery. Ayu's arms seemed to be dislocated and it was unbearable.
"I'll go outside and guard." Without looking at Ayu much, Xu Qian immediately retreated outside the cave.
Ayu leaned against the rockery cave wall and cried silently into tears.
After a while, Ayu was frightened to find that it was too quiet outside, as quiet as if no one was present.
"Fifth cousin?" Ayu stopped crying and asked at the entrance of the cave.
A shadow appeared at the entrance of the cave, and Xu Qian had no emotions from outside: "What's the matter?"
Ayu's heart was raised high and he squeezed his clothes and said, "No, it's okay, you don't say anything, I thought you were gone."
Is Xu Qian the kind of person who speaks without trust?
After a moment of silence, Xu Qian asked her in confusion: "Why do you drink? How much did you drink?"
The cave was gloomy, so Ayu wanted to listen to Xu Qian's voice more to boost his courage, so he told him about his greed for wine.
Xu Qian was stunned.
He had just drunk Xiaoliu's fruit wine, but it didn't smell much, so she would even get drunk?
If she hadn't seen her cheeks flushed and unconscious, if she hadn't been there when Xiaoliu delivered the wine, Xu Qian would have suspected that she was lying, or if Xiaoliu deliberately added some despicable things to the fruit wine she gave her.
"It seems that you have a poor alcohol tolerance, so don't drink it secretly in the future." Xu Qian instructed in the tone of an elder.
Ayu obediently promised: "I will never drink it again in the future."
At that time, Ayu only felt that Xu Qian, the fifth cousin, was kind and upright, majestic and rude. Now, after recalling the first private contact between the two, Ayu actually tasted a hint of sweetness.
She was always curious about when Xu Qian fell in love with her. Could it be that the contact that day made him start to pay attention to her?
"A Yu, why are you laughing at?"
After giving his daughter a lot of advice, Jiang said in confusion.
Ayu used his heart and listened a little, and immediately said, "I laughed at my aunt who thought too much, who would deliberately make me drink?"
Jiang frowned and stared at his daughter and said, "If you don't have to worry about ten thousand, just be afraid of one. In short, you are not allowed to drink half a drop of wine in the future, and you cannot expose it."
After successfully diverting his mother's attention, Ayu quickly ensured that he would be obedient.
"Auntie, I want to sleep for a while, you go out to accompany your father." Perhaps because he smelled too much alcohol, Ayu still didn't make him excited, lay down lazyly, and said sleepy.
Jiang covered her daughter with a quilt and said softly: "Go to sleep, I'll leave when you fall asleep."
Ayu was immersed in the memories with Xu Qian and fell asleep soon.
Jiang looked at her daughter's little face while sleeping, and liked it and was worried.
Cao Ting'an stood outside the door for a long time before leaving quietly.
Ayu slept until dusk. When he woke up, he found that his mother was lying on the table not far away, with her eyes closed, and seemed to be sleeping poorly.
Ayu didn't want to disturb his mother, so he put on his embroidered shoes and went out quietly.
When he walked to the main hall, Ayu looked up and saw his father stepping in from outside the door.
"Dad." Ayu called out with a smile.
The little daughter looked rosy, Cao Tingan was very pleased, glanced at the inner room, and asked in a low voice: "Where is your aunt?"
Ayu spoke obediently for his mother: "My aunt took care of me for the whole afternoon, and she is so tired that she falls asleep."
Cao Ting'an knew that he had waited for Jiang for an afternoon, but she had never come out.
Ayu was determined to match his parents, and his eyes turned around and walked out with a smile: "I will go back to the room to wash my face first, and come and apologize to my father later."
After saying that, Ayu ran away briskly.
Cao Ting'an laughed, what is the crime of his daughter?
When the person left, Cao Tingan thought about it and went to the inner room. When he entered the room, he saw Jiang lying on the table with his arms pillowing, facing the bed.
From this point of view, she is petite and slender, and she looks like a child.
Children are worried. Look, why don’t she sleep with her daughter with such a big bed? What else does the mother and daughter meet?
Cao Tingan shook his head, walked over lightly, bent down, and picked up Jiang's family easily like holding a child.
Jiang frowned slightly and woke up the moment he was placed on the bed by Cao Ting.
Opening his eyes, Cao Ting'an's face with hideous scars above his head.
Jiang's heart tightened.
Recognizing that this was his bed, Jiang immediately looked inside.
"Ayu has returned to the room." Cao Tingan withdrew his hand and sat on the edge of the bed.
After hearing this, Jiang immediately sat up: "Then I'll go over and see her."
Cao Tingan pressed her shoulder and used to the face on the floor: "She has a maid to serve her, so you don't have to look at her, so she can lie down with peace of mind."
Jiang was unable to feel at ease, but he dared not refuse.
Her whole body was stiff, and she looked at the innermost bed board with her squint eyes.
Cao Tingan reacted and sighed: "The Cao family has been practicing martial arts for generations. I have been with the soldiers since I was a child. I am inevitably more irritable and I am not as good as those elegant scholars."
Jiang's eyelashes moved.
Cao Tingan recalled the words of his daughter and the old doctor Cui, and was cruel. He held Jiang's little hand and said to her: "I am a rough man. When I saw you look beautiful, I wanted you. I wanted you. I must like you. If I like you, I want you every day. But you always cry. When you cry, I feel upset. When you get angry, I will get angry. In the end, I will be afraid of me and I will be scared to the core."
