Chapter 5 — Tong Uyen Chi

I pretended to be curious. "Your clothes and jewelry are really beautiful today." "It looks like a new style from Tran Bao Palace." "It seems that General Qin is very generous with you." Duong Suong Ngoc raised his hand to touch the hairpin on his head, a little embarrassed. "I didn't want to accept it." "It's just that the general said that I never had anything before, and he wants to make it up to me in the future." "But if you like it..." "I would like to give it to you." Consider admitting your mistake." I smiled slightly. "No need." "Such a precious thing..." "I can't accept it." I deliberately said it like that.
So. But the listener... also intentionally understands it in a different way. In the crowd, several noble ladies glanced at each other meaningfully. I realized... Those were all people who didn't get along with the General's palace. … As expected. Less than a few days later, my mother told me the outcome of that incident. The flower viewing party finally reached the ears of the mandarins. Originally, it was considered a big thing, but it was also a small thing. But the official family is also trying to take the opportunity to knock on the Tan family. So right before the court, he brought that story
mentioned. After returning to the Qin palace, the old lady became angry. She immediately kicked Tan Tram dozens of times. Duong Suong Ngoc was also scolded. Right in front of her servants, old lady Tan ordered someone to remove all the jade hairpins and jewels from her head, and take off her colorful clothes. She also ordered: "When you have finished learning the rules, you can step out of the General's palace." After hearing this, her mother was extremely happy. But looking at me... she tried not to laugh. I gently stroked her back. "Mother, if you want to laugh, you can
laugh." "No need to hold back." "Do you really not like Qin Tram anymore?" I firmly shook my head. At that moment, my mother burst out laughing. After a while... she started to worry again. "What about Chu Yen Le..." I thought... Chu Yen Le was the person my mother carefully chose for my cousin. Of course, it was a very good marriage. "Mr. It's me." "I'm scared..." Suddenly there was a "bang" behind me. I turned my head to look back.
Chu Yen Le just accidentally bumped into the small table next to her. Apparently... he heard the conversation between me and my mother. Chu Yen Le first bowed politely and then looked at me in a bit of panic. Mother looked at the two of us and then promptly left. Only then did he hastily explain, "Miss Song." "The matchmaker came to ask me that day, only saying she was Miss Tong." "I thought it was you..." "That's why I agreed." "I like you." "I liked you at first sight..." I looked at him... he didn't look like he was lying. But me
I can't remember the first time I met him. For me... that was something from years ago." It was last year's poetry recitation meeting on the boat." Mentioning that story, Chu Yen Le's eyes lit up. "Miss Tong's poem was very well done." "I only heard it once.. I kept it in my heart forever." "Of course..." "Miss Tong's other aspects are also very good..." He took another step. Forcing me to raise my head to see him. For a moment... I felt his aura was a bit oppressive. Who would have thought?
Then he knelt down on one knee in front of me. Use a tone like you're asking for some mercy. For the first time... he called me directly by name. "Uyen Chi..." "Please..." "Look at me." I put my hand around my chest. Could it be... that I also have heart disease like my mother? If not, why is my heart beating so fast? Seeing that I didn't answer him, he got an elephant asking for a fairy. A hand as white as jade grabbed my sleeve. Fingertips were still slightly red. The eyes that look at me are as gentle as spring water. Oh my god. A woman was
Having endured decades of loneliness in the backyard like me... How can I cope? My throat was dry. "Stand up." "I agree." Chu Yen Le gently rested her forehead on my thigh. Finally achieving what he wanted... he laughed softly. I helped him stand up. He conveniently took my hand. Warm... but also extremely sturdy. … After making my heart clear. Chu Yen Le seemed to have turned into a different person, he was extremely attached to me. While I was playing the piano and drawing pictures, he immediately moved the table to sit next to me. When I embroider,
He intentionally and unintentionally fiddled with the belt, then said: "Madam, look... is there something missing?" I pretended to be confused. Just insist on making him speak for himself. Seeing my eyes full of teasing smiles, he couldn't help but helplessly rub at my neck. "It's a scented sachet." "The scented sachet made for me by my wife must be the most beautiful." "The other day, I wanted to take it with me to the banquet in the palace." I looked at him strangely. Previously, Chu Yen Le did not pay attention to these things. Now deliberately mentioning the time to attend the palace banquet... it's really strange. Forever
until he saw Tan Tram at the banquet. I just understand a little bit of his thoughts. Duong Suong Ngoc carefully followed closely behind Tan Tram, completely lacking the brilliance of the previous day. She was clearly only a teenager, but she was wearing dark colors, making her look much older. Her hair was only tied up with a simple silver hairpin and was overly careful. The earrings are also rustic, without any shine. She obediently sat down. Seeing me, I only reluctantly gave a sad smile. Maybe... Finally
She also understands. A family like the Qin family... is not a place she can endure. The banquet begins. Occasionally, Chu Yen Le discussed with the colleagues nearby. But still don't forget to pour me wine. I was just about to raise my glass but was interrupted by Tan Tram. "Alcohol is harmful to your health." "Your body is weak, you shouldn't drink too much." I frowned. Qin Tram's management is also very large.
