Chapter 4 Fiance?(1/2)

"Miss, you put it so high, higher than others!"

Xiaoxia followed Su Zijin and clapped her hands very happily. After all, she and Su Zijin were of the same age, and they were just the ones who loved to play.

Su Zijin, who was smiling happily, immediately became alert when he heard Xiao Xia's voice.

Her persona in Kyoto is that of a frail lady, and she cannot expose herself at will.

"Here you go."

Su Zijin reluctantly handed the paper kite in his hand to Xiaoxia, then took out a handkerchief to wipe away the non-existent sweat.

Xiaoxia didn't know why her young lady suddenly lost interest. She just held the rope pulley happily and followed the pattern of her young lady just now, loosening and tightening the kites.

"Miss, it turns out the wind is so strong, it feels like it's going to carry me up. Miss is so strong."

Xiaoxia put the kite on while stabbing her own lady with a knife.

The terrain of Mount Xisai is originally high. Behind the main hall of the temple, you can even overlook the entire Kyoto. Therefore, if you put the kite here, you will not feel it on the ground. But once you put it up, the kite will fly into the sky, and the high-altitude wind will be very strong, bringing you

Even with the paper kites, there was a faint whistle.

Su Zijin looked around guiltily, hoping that no one would notice that he had placed the kite extremely high. He also stretched out his hand to help Xiaoxia, who was about to lose the kite, to retrieve it.

"Brother Lingchuan, your little fiancée is quite interesting."

Behind the noble ladies, a group of young men from Kyoto were looking at everyone, and naturally they also saw Su Zijin's little actions.

The speaker was none other than Guo Yixing, the eldest son of the Guo family, and beside him was naturally his good brother Cui Lingchuan, who was also a noble son of Kyoto.

They were now seventeen or eighteen years old, and when they were in high spirits, they mostly teased Cui Lingchuan's fiancée who suddenly appeared.

After hearing this, Cui Lingchuan raised the corners of his lips but did not smile, "I am still a kid at heart."

After saying that, he left the grassland and went to the front hall of the temple behind him.

"Brother Guo, Brother Cui, what does this mean?"

The Cheng family son next to Guo Yixing looked at Cui Lingchuan's neutral expression and asked in confusion.

"What does it mean? Only he knows what it means."

Guo Yixing shrugged and walked away.

Only a few people were left standing looking at each other.

Everyone started to play, and soon they dispersed. Su Zijin watched Xiao Xia playing with paper kites for a while, and after a while he came back to his senses and found that the ladies around him had disappeared. They went to rest somewhere, and saw that just now

The young masters behind him also disappeared.

"When we are tired, let's go for a walk to the palace."

Su Zijin took Xiaoxia to the backyard of the temple.

In my memory, it overlooks the entire Kyoto. There is no better place to understand the layout of a city than there.

Su Zijin has been in Kyoto for several years. Apart from going out for a banquet with her mother, this is the first time she has gone out alone to play in the city. She has long wanted to see it, and Su Zijin will naturally help her satisfy it today.

"Are you here too?"

"I walked around randomly and ended up here before I knew it."

"Well, by the way, you cough every time the seasons change. This sachet is for you. It contains some herbs from Angelica dahurica and Zeelandia, which are good for the body."

"this…"

"No? Don't forget it..."

"Yes, thank you Mr. Cui."

The wind on Leyouyuan blew from the back hall, carrying a faint sound. Although Su Zijin had only heard it once, he recognized the female voice as Guo Yixuan, whom he met today. Apart from Cui Lingchuan, there was no other male voice here.

The second surname Cui?

"Miss?"

Xiaoxia obviously recognized the owner of the voice and looked at her young lady.

Since the young lady came to Beijing the year before last and was betrothed to Mr. Cui in Cui Lingchuan, her heart has been devoted to Mr. Cui. She must be feeling sad now, right?

Su Zijin listened to the male and female voices with no expression on his face, but he was complaining fiercely in his heart.

Aren’t they all saying that these young ladies from high-ranking families are concerned about their families and would not easily do things like give or receive privately? So what happened to me?

On the first day she came here, she encountered something so exciting as her fiancé Hongxing cheating on her. She always felt that it was not a good sign.

"Miss, do you want to avoid it first?" Xiao Xia asked her lady in a low voice.

In the current situation, it is best to avoid it first and go back home to talk to the master and his wife.

Su Zijin frowned. In her memory, although she was engaged to Cui Lingchuan, every time they met, apart from being shy, there was no substantive communication. Originally, Su Zijin thought that Cui Lingchuan thought she was young, but now she sees

Come on, he has someone he loves?

In this case, why did the Cuisu family get married? Both families are from high-ranking families in Kyoto, so getting married is no child's play.

After thinking for a while, Su Zijin squatted down, neatly picked off a few dogtail grasses on the roadside, and stuffed them into the sachet made by himself. The movement was so fast that Xiaoxia didn't even react, Su Zijin had already put the incense into the sachet.

With the bag's seal in order, at least from the outside, you can't tell that the stuff inside is not vanilla, but foxtail grass.

"Let's go, this is sewn for Mr. Cui, and it will be delivered to Mr. Cui today."

After saying that, he stepped forward. He did not pay attention to his manners in front of the noble lady as he did just now. Instead, he kicked his skirt and strode forward, as if he was going to fight.

"Miss, please calm down. Let's report back to the master and his wife first and then make plans!"

Xiaoxia trotted and followed Su Zijin to persuade him.

Su Zijin nodded as he walked, "Of course, I am the only daughter of the general's family, and I will not do anything that will bring shame to the family."

Seeing that her young lady was still sane, Xiaoxia secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stepped hard, trying to make some noise. She hoped that the two people at the back would not do anything indecent and be seen by them.

"Xiaonatsu, you can really see the entire Kyoto from here, it's so spectacular!"

Su Zijin suddenly spoke loudly, which not only frightened Xiao Xia, but also frightened the two people behind him.

"Sister Zijin?"

Guo Yixuan said in surprise.

Su Zijin then turned around and looked over, looking surprised, "Sister Yixuan? Mr. Cui? You are all here!"

"Pfft", a quick and soft laugh came. Su Zijin heard it and looked around. It was strange that there were only four of them here, and only Cui Lingchuan was a man. The face of Cui Lingchuan in front of him was stiff, so this

Who is laughing?

The surroundings were empty, and Su Zijin thought that he heard it wrong, or that it was the sound brought by the wind, so he didn't care and looked at the two people in front of him again.

"It just happened to happen."

Guo Yixuan tucked her hair behind her ears and said calmly.

Cui Lingchuan simply didn't speak.

Xiaoxia curled her lips behind Su Zijin. She didn't even make an excuse. In the past, the young lady was trying to flatter her, but it was just a teenager's mentality, and she wanted to be accepted by the teenagers in Kyoto. But today, although the young lady is still the same young lady, her mentality is completely different. Although Xiaoxia

I didn't know that my young lady had merged with another soul from the later generations, but I vaguely sensed that when it came to matters of right and wrong, my young lady would not be treated as perfunctory as before, without even giving an explanation.

"It's a coincidence that the three of us met together. It's okay. I'm a thin-skinned person, so it's good that there are few people here. Sister Yixuan, I treat you as my sister, so I won't avoid you. Mr. Cui said

During the Shangsi Festival in Kyoto, men and women will give each other sachets to show their affection. Although we have no feelings, we have a legitimate relationship and can give each other sachets. I am slow and slow-tempered, Mr. Cui, please bear with me."

As he spoke, Su Zijin stretched out his arm and handed over the sachet that had just been filled with dogtail grass.

Facing the sachet handed over by Su Zijin, Cui Lingchuan and Guo Yixuan had complicated expressions. Guo Yixuan didn't have the hint of arrogance just now, and Cui Lingchuan also turned dark.

Su Zijin spoke straightforwardly and openly, and it didn't matter whether he accepted it or not.

"You're still young, don't imitate other people's gift of sachets. Vanilla can ward off evil spirits, so you might as well bring it with you. Brother Guo and I have agreed that we have things to do, so we won't accompany you. Yixuan, let's go. Your brother also

Waiting for you."

Cui Lingchuan's face turned dark, he said this with a hint of anger, turned around and left.

Guo Yixuan's expression changed from ugly just now to at a loss now. She looked at Cui Lingchuan's back, then at Su Zijin who still had his arms stretched out, and finally chased Cui Lingchuan.

"Miss, they bully people too much!"

Xiaoxia stamped her foot and said.

Not to mention the face of the General's Mansion, the face of the young lady, even if we are just acquaintances, we can't just leave him alone. What's more, has the young lady done anything wrong?

Su Zijin stared blankly at the direction the two were leaving, lost in thought.

After Xiaoxia's anger was over, she was a little worried when she saw the young lady like this, "Miss, today is just a coincidence, Mr. Cui is usually quite graceful."

Xiaoxia was reluctant in time, but she still explained something for Cui Lingchuan. She was afraid that her young lady would be too sad.

Su Zijin then took back his hand and sighed, "Forget it, I am lucky to get it, but I will lose my life."

Su Zijin was thinking just now whether to endure it like this or go back and report to his parents that he should cancel the marriage.

I finally got a rich and wealthy son-in-law, but before I can enjoy the good life, I want to call off the marriage? In fact, marriage does not require love, right?

Su Zijin had just tried to persuade himself, but he still couldn't resist the nauseating feeling in his throat.
