He is From Great Sea of Stars

Chapter 35: Embroider long poems for you

"Cousin, I'm sorry, but I really didn't mean it."

Lu Shuyuan sat opposite her with her head down, her voice depressed and a little sad,

"You know, I was bullied by my sister since I was a child, and my mother didn't like me very much. I was like an unnecessary person at home. At that time, what I admired most was you. When I looked at your poems, I thought a lot. Become as free and happy as you are, you are a leader in my heart, a guide, so I..."

She paused, her voice low,

"Cousin, I'm sorry."

It was probably silent for a while.

In fact, this scene was a bit embarrassing for Lu Shuyuan.

They sat in the living room like this, Huo Xingchao was reading the newspaper with a light expression next to him, and there were servants standing around with their heads bowed, and they didn't even glance at her.

As if it wasn't something to be concerned about at all.

She suddenly felt a burning pain in her face.

This kind of feeling is like stripping yourself naked and exposing it to the public eye, but everyone is not interested in even looking at you.

It was embarrassing and wronged, but he had to try his best to hold back and make a smile at the person who picked him up.

- how cruel.

"cousin......"

"I see."

Gu Zhi nodded, not sure if he believed it or not, his expression was not clear, and his tone was as soft and gentle as always.

"Then don't do this in the future."

She glanced at her, with a shallow smile on her lips, simply and neatly, "I don't like it."

......

I do not like.

A very concise sentence.

As if to say that the vegetables delivered today were not fresh, and I didn't like it - the same calm and calm.

But why.

Why do you have to change me if you don't like it.

What I want to do is my own business

No matter how I talk or how I walk, it is my right to tell others what I like to eat and drink. It has nothing to do with you, why do you care about me!

At that moment, Lu Shuyuan wanted to sneer very much, and then threw it back ruthlessly.

Even if Huo Xingchao wasn't sitting next to her, she would go back in irony.

But she glanced at the man's indifferent eyebrows, and finally chose to compromise, lowered her head quietly, and then choked a little,

"I'm sorry, cousin, I see."

".....why are you crying?"

After Gu Zhi heard it, she was surprised, "Is this such a grievance?"

She raised her eyebrows, thought for a while, and said softly, "If you are so uncomfortable, then you can learn it. This is your own hobby, and I also interfered with you, but when you learn from me, don't do it. I learned from it, and I really don't like it."

......

Lu Shuyuan had never seen a person like Gu Zhi who played cards unreasonably.

She didn't seem to care about their mutual respect at all, and she just said something without a swear word, but it seemed like a knife stabbing her lifeline, forcing her to flee.

Embarrassed and resentful.

After she left, Huo Xingchao finally put down the newspaper and chuckled, "You don't show respect to others, so you're not afraid of her revenge?"

"Then take revenge."

The little girl began to put the flower rope on his hand again, and muttered, "I don't like this kind of person the most. I squirm and hesitate."

"If she wants to do harm, she will harm others, and if she doesn't, she will not harm others. She follows you every day and is ready to do harm, but she has to find a high-sounding reason to start harming others, so I am reluctant to play with her. "

......makes sense.

Lu Shuyuan seems to be such a person.

Huo Xingchao looked at her fingers nimbly carrying the rope, suddenly thought of something, raised his eyebrows and asked her,

"I heard that you met He Xun in the yard at noon today? You even gave him a flower?"

"I heard? Who did you listen to?"

"I don't care who I listen to, tell you what this is going to do first?"

"I didn't plan to do anything."

Gu Zhi blinked, innocently, "I was just going out for a walk, and then I bumped into him suddenly. He wanted to apologize to me, but I didn't want to hear it, and then I stuffed the chrysanthemum into his mouth."

Huo Xingchao paused.

After a while, "then do you know how much the flower you pulled was worth?"

"I found out later."

The little girl lowered her head and sighed, "That's why I told him that if you are a gentleman, you will lose money. He said yes at first, but later found that he couldn't afford to pay, and actually said that I had deceived him. You say this kind of person is very shameless. ?"

"......is a bit."

"Fortunately, I got out of the bitter sea in time and married you."

She raised her head and smiled sweetly,

"You're different. Even if I accidentally pluck a flower, I don't have to pay for it. It's so caring."

The man raised his eyebrows, very strange, "When did I say such a thing?"

Gu Zhi's face immediately fell, "Then do you want me to pay? But I don't have that much money. Otherwise, when my son grows up, the mother's debt should be paid."

......

"You are such a good mother."

In short, at noon the next day, Lu Shuyuan was no longer in the mood to come and chat with her because of the embarrassment she met yesterday. After arguing with her mother, she went back to the room.

In this room, Gu Zhi's former classmate Yan Zhen happened to come over to look for her, and the two sat in the small pavilion to reminisce.

Yan Zhen used to be Gu Zhi's best best friend. They both studied in Wancheng, but after graduating from high school, the whole family moved to Shanghai and lived there for two or three years.

I moved back this year for some unknown reason. When I heard the news of Gu Zhi's marriage, I missed her very much for a while, so I came to visit her at Huo's house.

Gu Zhi looked at her for a while.

In the past, at school, Yan Zhen was the most popular one. Because she has a good temper, treats people generously, and has a gentle and soft smile, which makes people feel very close.

But within a few years, she seemed to have completely changed. Her skin was much darker and yellower, she wore an old-fashioned woman's head, and her clothes were simple. As soon as she shook hands, she could feel rough calluses.

She doesn't look like a twenty-year-old woman, but a thirty-year-old woman.

After chatting gradually, I realized that she had been living in Shanghai for the past few years, and it was really not very good.

First, her father died of illness, and then her stepmother married a carpenter. The family lived a poor life. Even if she was pregnant with a child, she had to take care of everything, big and small.

The hardships and tortures of life suddenly turned her from a gentle girl into a woman with yellow skin and rough hands.

"...Now that prices are rising fast, the rent between the pavilions is 20 yuan a month. A catty of rice costs 6 cents, how can I save it? After a silver dollar comes to the end, I just buy 4 catties of pork, which will be paid soon. It's winter, and there are not enough quilts at home. The child is only so old now, I really can't bear to let him freeze, Azhi, you say, how could my father leave me like this... .."

Yan Zhen was not crying poor.

She is really distressed.

Before she came here, she was still thinking about it in her heart. When she met Gu Zhi, she only said good things, not bad things. And although she lives in poverty, she always has such arrogance in her heart that she doesn't want to let her complain in front of her best friend.

But I don't know why, seeing Gu Zhi's familiar face and seeing her sigh, with a little pity and concern in her eyes, Yan Zhen couldn't hold it any longer, holding her handkerchief and shedding tears.

Gu Zhi was also very uncomfortable.

Once, Yan Zhen was her best friend.

But now, eight out of ten sentences are about trivial life, and the center of all topics is just one word: money.

Before leaving, Gu Zhi handed her a few silver notes, a pair of bracelets, and a small golden lock. Seeing her frown, she immediately blocked her hand with a serious expression,

"It's not for you, it's for Doudou. She's so big, and I haven't given her a greeting. If you're free tomorrow, come talk to me again, it's better to bring Doudou too, if you can. , let her stay with me for a few days, I rarely go out now, and I'm bored at home alone."

Yan Zhen held her hand and sighed,

"Azhi, with you, I won't shirk. You are a lucky girl, and you can always live a comfortable life. Although there is a sentence that sounds ugly, I still want to say, Huo Sishao is treating you well now, no It means that you will always be good to you. No matter what, you have to plan for yourself. If you are really like me in the future, you will have the capital to survive."

......

To be honest, Gu Zhi felt that what Yan Zhen said was very reasonable.

- A man's heart, a needle in the sea.

Huo Xingchao made her unable to figure it out right now. Who knew if he would change his mind in the future and marry a lot of concubines back.

So when she went to bed at night, she sat on the bed and saw Huo Xingchao walking in, her eyes suddenly became bright, and she blinked at him.

The man raised his eyebrows,

"What's wrong?"

"Fourth Young Master, I have something I want to ask your help!"

"you say."

She immediately got up from the bed, took out a small box from the closet, opened it, and stretched it out in front of him,

"Can you exchange the contents of my box for gold?"

The box was full of silver notes, silver dollars, and jewelry, and it was estimated that it was all of Gu Zhi's own private money.

"What are you going to do with gold?"

Huo Sishao took the box and weighed it, "If you want, I'll give you a few to play with."

"Okay, okay."

Gu Zhi bowed her eyebrows in response, "After you give it to me, can you exchange the contents in my box for gold?"

"...What the **** are you going to do with gold?"

"I'm just in case. Now that prices are rising so fast, I don't think it's appropriate to keep bank notes."

"Then don't worry, it won't starve you."

The man smiled, "Okay, I'll change it for you tomorrow and deposit it in the bank for you."

"Don't don't."

She shook her head like a rattle, "I'll find a place to hide myself."

The little girl thought for a while and asked him, "Which place do you think is easier to dig up on the mountain or under Zhuangzi?"

"..."

Huo Xingchao closed the box and frowned, feeling strange.

"Gu Zhi, did I eat less food for you or shorten what you wear? You are trying so hard to hide your private money."

Gu Zhi glanced at him, "You don't understand."

"Of course I didn't have to hide before, but I married you. Think about how dangerous you are yourself."

"People like you are the most prone to accidents. If something happens, they will definitely dig up the ground and search the house. I don't hide far away, it's not safe, I always want my children to plan. Bar."

Huo Xingchao paused and told her clearly,

"You don't have to worry about that. The Huo family will be fine. Even if you have seven or eight children, I can afford it."

Of course he was sure.

Because in the next 50 years, the Huo family will still be fine when he dies.

But he didn't expect the little girl to glance at him and wave her hand,

"Don't say sweet words, you men, I don't know yet."

"You don't have gold to be safe."

......

The man sneered,

"Gu Zhi, do you know why you have written poems for so many years, but you are still not famous?"

"...Speak and don't scold me!"

"It's because your poems are stained with the copper stench of money."
