Just like Tieu Da once said he would make up for the fox fur coat, make up for the jade warmer, and make up for the portrait for me. Therefore, I know that what he said is like the nanny's malt candy, there will never be a next time. 6 Until the end of the year was approaching, Quy Bao Chau was getting older but still slowly refused to discuss marriage. In my heart I vaguely understood something, but didn't dare to think deeper. That day, father suddenly sent someone to call me to the lobby. When he spoke, he rarely brought a bit of gentleness. "Xuong Bo, you're already grown up. There are a few things I should explain to you clearly." Mother, however, did not have the patience to listen to him beating around the bush and directly interrupted. "I am your mother, your marriage must be decided by me." "You are just a fool, even if you have a predestined relationship, you can't keep it. If only Bao Chau marries over there, the two families in the court can also support each other." The two hands in my sleeve clasped. c.h.or.t. For the first time in front of my parents, I said those words. "No." "I don't agree." "I have to go find Tieu Da. Tieu Da never said he wanted to divorce me. He will marry me, he once said he would take me away from here." Quy Bao Chau immediately burst into laughter, his laughter was full of sarcasm. "Qui Xuong Bo, the whole capital knows that the person who has an engagement with Tieu Da is the Quy family's daughter. Tieu Da and I are both talented and beautiful, and how many people know Quy Xuong Bo?" you?" "That year because I didn't agree, the engagement contract fell on you." "Now I regret it, you should return everything to the old owner." "If it weren't for Tieu Da's love and compassion for you, he wouldn't agree to change the marriage, I wouldn't even bother wasting words on you." She stood up, slowly walked in front of me, looking down from above. "But a fool like you probably wouldn't understand why Tieu Da didn't take you out, why did he tell you to call him A brother." "Isn't it because you've made him lose face? If it were me, he wouldn't dare to take me out." "If you know better, go tell Tieu Da yourself. Otherwise, you'll have to suffer in the future!" Those words were like a knife, making me unable to breathe. But before I could speak, my mother slammed down on the table. "You're right, sister. If you don't agree, then get out of the Quy family." "Originally, I would have never given birth to a daughter like you. It's better if you leave, the marriage will still belong to Bao Chau." 7 After hearing that, my heart ached, but I didn't know how to refute it. I could only turn around and leave, running without stopping out of the Quy Palace gate. I haven't gone out for so long, so of course I don't know the way. I can only run around like a headless fly, accidentally bumping into someone. I raised my head and saw an extremely handsome face. That person has delicate eyebrows and eyes, completely different from Tieu Da's tough and dignified appearance. The corners of the eyebrows and eyes all carry a casual lazy look, like a cat lying in the sun. Looks a bit familiar. He lowered his head to look at me, with a hint of interest in his eyes. "Miss, are you looking for someone again?" My mind was still vague, so I blurted out: "I'm looking for Tieu Da." The other person raised his eyebrows, tilted his chin towards the carriage outside the pub opposite. I followed it, and sure enough, it was Tieu Da's carriage. My mind was hot, I immediately entered the pub. The other person didn't stop him, just slowly said a sentence behind me. "Second floor, second room on the left." I went upstairs, walked to the front of that room, and immediately heard someone talking inside. As Tieu Da's friend, I recognize that voice. "Tomorrow the army departs, I don't know how long it will take to return from this trip. Are you really not planning to say a word to that little fiancee?" "I see you really don't like her. I also

I heard that the noble lady of the Noble family often tortured her." Tieu Da sadly took a sip of wine, then spoke a long time later. "I know." "Know? Even though you know it, you don't care?" The friend's voice was filled with surprise. "Don't tell me that you really want to break off your engagement to marry Quy Bao Chau? That eldest lady cannot become a good wife." Tieu Da poured another sip of wine. His voice was low, but each word still clearly reached my ears. "I know that Bao Chau is not an innocent and honest noble lady." "She is selfish, unreasonable, and does not care about Xuong Bo at all." "That year, I appeared at the Quy residence in the name of having an engagement with the Quy family's daughter. I don't want to remember." "But at first sight, I saw Bao Chau. I also know that it's because Bao Chau criticized me for being poor that he threw the engagement contract to Xuong Bo." He stopped, his voice slightly struggling. "But from beginning to end, I don't need an honest wife." "But now, even if Bao Chau wants to marry me, I can't marry you." "This trip is unpredictable. If I selfishly marry you and then die on the battlefield, how will you live in the future? "If only during this time, I can be with you well."
