There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 34
"Has the young lady fallen in love with Mr. Su?" Zhang Cuihua asked.

Liu Huixiang suddenly felt like she was struck by lightning.

At that time, she was holding a mahogany comb in her hand to comb her hair. When she heard this, her heart trembled, and the comb fell to the ground with a "pop".

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Huixiang scolded in embarrassment, glaring at Zhang Cuihua with a pair of watery eyes.

But the blush that spread all over her pretty face in a moment said it all.

Liu Huixiang is no longer a twenty-year-old girl. She shouldn't be so shy and even unwilling to admit her feelings for Su Xian in front of Zhang Cuihua.

The main reason is that she has never really been in love, and her previous marriages have died before they even started, leaving her completely inexperienced.

Not even able to withstand the slightest bit of teasing.

The timidity of a [-]-year-old girl is reflected in the plump and gorgeous Liu Huixiang, who has a unique beauty.

This time, Zhang Cuihua did not say, "My servant made a mistake," but instead, like an elder, she enlightened: "From my perspective, Mr. Su is talented, beautiful, and capable. The most important thing is that Mr. Su does not believe those slanderous words about the young lady. "

"Mr. Su, he is worthy of the lady's trust for the rest of his life. He is the lady's beloved man!"

"In the past, my servant thought that Mr. Su was just a nerd who only knew how to read dead books. But after the stinky tofu incident, this servant changed her mind."

"Miss, after all, a servant can't protect you forever. Miss needs someone to rely on, a home to return to, and a man to protect you from the wind and rain!"

"Mr. Su is where the young lady belongs..."

"..."

Zhang Cuihua's words were serious and thoughtful, and she spoke out what was on her mind these days.

Liu Huixiang had already turned her head away and turned her back to Zhang Cuihua. In fact, these words had entered her heart, and she had already secretly promised Su Xian.

But she was really too shy and didn't dare to openly discuss this matter with Zhang Cuihua.

He had to turn his back to her all the time. After she finished nagging, he said coldly: "Cuihua has worked hard all day. She must be tired. Go back to your room and rest early."

Zhang Cuihua muttered for a long time, and finally said: "Yes."

After the door was closed, Liu Huixiang, like a lively and active girl, quickly pulled the door bolt, then leaned against the door with her back, holding down her beating heart with both hands.

The oil lamp went out.

The boudoir was dark.

Liu Huixiang lay quietly on the bed with her eyes open, Zhang Cuihua's words echoed in her heart.

Su Xian actually lived in her heart very early, from the moment she wanted to compensate Su Xian.

A few days ago, when Su Xian explained the detailed steps of making stinky tofu, Liu Huixiang understood what she meant and boldly gave a hint.

Tonight, most of the content of Zhang Cuihua's words had the same meaning as hers.

There was only one thing she had never considered.

What will she do when she gets old?
If you don't get married, have no children, and live alone all your life... Just thinking about it for a moment makes Liu Huixiang feel scared. It is a suffocating loneliness.

Ancient people did not have as much entertainment as modern people. If no one grew old, they would really die of boredom and loneliness.

future……

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across Liu Huixiang's mind.

future!

I still remember a few days ago, when Su Xian told Tang Ju about his life experience in front of the stinky tofu stall. Liu Huixiang hid behind the kitchen door and eavesdropped. She put her two index fingers together, thinking that she and Su Xian were a perfect match.

This idea is actually wrong!

Big mistakes.

The mistake was not considering the "future" factor.

Although Su Xian is the bastard of the Su family, he has been separated from the family and is in poverty.

But what about the future?
And she, Liu Huixiang, was a widowed widow in the past. Will she get better in the future?
Even if she takes off her hat, she is already 25 years old.

Although she looks better than Xi Shi, her age is a flaw.

Although she still retains her virginity, she did have several aborted marriages before...

There are too many flaws, too many to be worthy of the future Su Xian.

"Could it be that I can only be a concubine?"

Liu Huixiang murmured, and then felt sorry for herself, feeling that her fate was too bad.

After a while, she suddenly realized, and said with a smile, "Let's just be my concubine. Since it's fate, no one can do anything..."

After all, she comes from a wealthy family, and her strong sense of hierarchy and shame makes her not averse to men taking concubines.

For example, her cruel father took in eighteen concubines, and her brothers and sisters were hard to count on both hands.

There are too many "flaws" on her body, she is older, and there are a lot of past events that are unbearable to look back on. The only thing that makes her masturbate is that she is still a virgin.

In this era, the concept of chastity is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people...

After accepting her destiny of being Su Xian's concubine, Liu Huixiang felt at ease, not terribly uncomfortable, and was very calm.

Late at night.

But Liu Huixiang couldn't sleep, so she closed her eyes and imagined her future "married life" in her mind.

As she thought about it, she couldn't help but think of the little picture albums her mother had given her when she got married for the first time.

Those shameful paintings are still lying at the bottom of the box. Except for looking at them once when I took them from my mother, I have never looked at them again since then.

But those images are still fresh in my memory...

after a little while.

Liu Huixiang's whole body was hot, her chest was heaving, and her heart felt like being scratched by a cat's paw.

Oops, that tormented feeling came again.

This feeling was very excruciating. She wanted to vent it violently, but she didn't know how to do it, so she could only hold it in.

"cold shower!"

Liu Huixiang rolled over and climbed up, her hand shaking slightly when lighting the oil lamp. She opened the window and took a few breaths of fresh air to cool down the heat in her body.

Immediately, she raised her volume and shouted tremblingly: "Cuihua, Cuihua..."

"My lady slave is here."

Zhang Cuihua was on call at any time. After opening the door and entering the room, seeing Liu Huixiang's face flushed, she couldn't help asking with concern: "Miss, do you have a fever?"

Liu Huixiang turned away and whispered: "Prepare cold water, I want to take a bath."

Zhang Cuihua was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately. She agreed while exiting the room and went to prepare bath water overnight.

This kind of thing happens two or three times a month, just like a woman's menstrual holiday, it arrives late.

Zhang Cuihua is someone who has been there, so she naturally understands that this is a hurdle for a widow who has been in the mine for a long time. She even secretly gave Liu Huixiang a "Mr. Jiao" before.

But Liu Huixiang burned it as firewood.

The reason is that she has not yet been dealt with, how can she be so self-desecrated.

After a while, Zhang Cuihua returned and did not dare to enter the house. She only shouted outside the door: "Miss, the bath water is ready."

Liu Huixiang didn't reply. She opened the door and went downstairs with the change of clothes she had prepared.

Zhang Cuihua hangs behind, not daring to get too close, lest her young lady be too shy and unbearable. This has almost formed a tacit understanding.

Although it was hot summer at this time, the well water that had just been drawn from the well was cold.

Liu Huixiang clenched her silver teeth, holding the edge of the tub and slowly stepped into it. The cold well water first submerged her two calves, bringing with it a biting chill.

She stood in the tub, clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and closed her eyes. Then she lay down hard in the tub, splashing water, and her whole body was submerged in the cold and biting well water.

She couldn't help but shudder.

The heat in the body was instantly dispelled.

Her head became much clearer, and she was herself again.
