Chapter 45 Why

The smile on the man's face condensed slightly, he looked at her deeply and asked, "Why did you lie to me?"

"I'm not lying to you." Zuo Xiangning took two steps back unnaturally when he looked at her, "I sincerely wanted to help you. My female worker is indeed very good, but I am a man from a girl's family. The clothes are really inappropriate.”

"Why did you lie to me about the person I love?" Ling Xiao put his face in front of her, sniffed secretly, and greedily smelled the unique jasmine fragrance on her body.

He placed several pots of jasmine flowers in his room, but the smell was nowhere near as good as her fragrance.

"I..." Zuo Xiangning was about to say that she was not lying, but she suddenly thought that since Ling Xiao said that, he must have already investigated it.

She drew circles on the ground with her toes and said shyly: "I..."

She thought of her uncle's cousins ​​in Cangzhou and wanted to use them as shields.

But Ling Xiao thought she was just shy and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take care of everything."

After saying that, he opened the door and left.

When Zuo Xiangning opened the door again, there was no one outside.

What should he worry about?

What does "I have everything" mean?
Zuo Xiangning couldn't help flashing the smile that the man had when he said this just now.

His smile was so beautiful and warm, and his tone was just like her mother Jiang talking to her, giving her a doting feeling, as if he could rely on her for anything.

Zuo Xiangning shook her head and hurriedly got into bed and got under the quilt, not daring to think any more.

He was kind to himself. If he really needed her, she would definitely do her best to help him, but that was all.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zuo Xiangning, who had been thinking about it for a long time, opened the warehouse and found the crow-blue material.

She held different colored silk threads and traced them on the cloth for a long time. Finally, she felt that azure and ginger yellow combined with raven green would look brighter, while blue and black would look thicker.

"What are you planning to do, girl?" Pan Cui and Pan Xia asked from the side, "Do you want to make a dress?"

"I just have nothing to do to take a look." Zuo Xiangning put the cloth on the bed in the inner room with a red face, "Don't touch it."

She went to Jiang's courtyard during dinner.

Jiang murmured, "I wonder what's going on over there in Yangzhou?"

"Don't worry, my father will be fine." Zuo Xiangning didn't dare to tell her the news Ling Xiao told her, so she could only say: "Mother, my daughter's premonitions have always been very accurate, so don't worry, I'll send another message from Yangzhou Come, it must be a letter of peace."

"Fortunately, you are by my side, otherwise I would have died of worry." Jiang smiled and pinched Zuo Xiangning's face, and couldn't help but be startled, "Ning'er, why have you lost so much weight?"

"Really?" Zuo Xiangning touched her chubby cheek, "Why didn't I feel it?"

"There have been too many messy things these days, are you getting angry?" Jiang felt distressed and asked someone to stew a chicken quickly. "You have to take good care of yourself to avoid damaging your body."

"Mom, my daughter has finally lost weight. Please don't make delicious food for her anymore." Zuo Xiangning pouted and said softly, "My daughter wants to eat soy sauce beef at night."

"I'll let someone do it now." Cai's mother said from the side: "I'll stew a black-bone chicken and make some soy sauce beef."

"Make some more vegetables and send some to the old lady." Jiang sighed, "She didn't see anyone in the Buddhist hall, and I don't know how she is doing."

"Mother Wang is here, so you don't have to worry." Zuo Xiangning accompanied Jiang in the Fanghuayuan after dinner, returned to the room and wrote two large characters, and then read "Si Hai Fang Yu Zhi" for a while, watching It's the third watch and the man hasn't come yet.Zuo Xiangning couldn't help but walked to the door, opened the door, and looked into the yard.

Empty.

She returned to the room, hesitated, and lay down on the Arhat bed outside.

Ling Xiao saw the lights on in Zuo Xiangning's room in the yard and intuitively thought she was waiting for him.

He couldn't help but have a gentle smile on his face.

He pushed the door open and saw the woman lying on the Arhat's bed outside.

Under the dim candlelight, the woman's little face exuded a pearl-like light luster, making her look even more delicate and charming.

He walked to the bed and pulled up the thin quilt that was draped around the woman's waist.

Zuo Xiangning, who was not sleeping soundly, felt something strange. She opened her eyes suddenly and saw that it was him. The panic in her eyes disappeared in an instant.

"Why did you come here? Can you come earlier next time?" Zuo Xiangning sat up and yawned dissatisfied, "I've been waiting for you for most of the night, is it almost dawn?"

"I have something to do today, so I'll be early next time." Ling Xiao smiled good-naturedly and sat on the edge of the bed, handing her a big paper bag, "It's for you."

"What?" Zuo Xiangning opened the paper package and couldn't help but smile and said: "Roast leg of lamb!"

"I put a little less spicy. I don't know if you can eat it." Ling Xiao watched her bring the lamb leg to her mouth. When she was about to open her mouth to bite, she put it down again and couldn't help but ask, "You can't eat spicy food." ?”

"I'm going to find a knife." Zuo Xiangning put the paper bag on the kang table next to her, went to the inner room with her shoes and took out her fancy dagger, and then went to get the teapot and tea cup.

"This is for you." She handed Ling Xiao an apple, "This is from my mother's village. It's sweet and crisp."

Ling Xiao took it and put it aside, picked up the knife, rubbed it on his clothes twice, took off the meat slices from the lamb leg and placed them on the paper in front of Zuo Xiangning, "I'll get you two more toasted buns." ”

"I'm full, I just want to try it." Zuo Xiangning smiled and picked up a piece of mutton and put it in her mouth, her eyes curled into crescents, "It's delicious."

"If you like it, I'll bring it to you tomorrow." Ling Xiao looked at her lovingly as she ate.

Zuo Xiangning raised her head and met his eyes, her heart tightened. The delicious mutton in her mouth instantly became like chewing wax.

"Have you brought your appearance?" Zuo Xiangning lowered her eyes, took a sip of tea, wiped her hands clean, and went to the inner room to get a piece of cloth to show him, "Is this color okay?"

"It looks good if you say it looks good." Ling Xiao removed all the meat from the lamb leg, wrapped the bones, and said carefully: "Remind me to take it away later."

Zuo Xiangning pursed her lower lip, lowered her head and asked again: "Have you brought your appearance?"

"What's wrong with you?" Ling Xiao walked to the woman who was lowering her head and playing with the cloth, bent down and asked, "How can you say you are angry?"

"I didn't," Zuo Xiangning said with a smile, "I originally thought it was inappropriate to make you clothes, but then I thought about it, you are my benefactor, and I have to do what my benefactor asked me to do."

"Are you afraid that I won't keep my word?" Ling Xiao took Zuo Xiangning's arm, pulled her in front of him, and held her shoulders with both hands. "I can invite someone to come to propose marriage tomorrow."

"No!" Zuo Xiangning's body trembled slightly, her eyes filled with tears inexplicably, and crystal tears rolled down the corners of her eyes.

Her heart was filled with deep sadness, and the pain that penetrated deep into her skin came so suddenly and violently that even she herself was caught off guard...
