Chapter 225 No Way to Communicate
She kept tugging at her hands, as if trying to hide her annoyance.
Lu Zhaofeng was afraid that staring at her would embarrass her, so he quickly retracted his gaze.
He moved his lips as if to say something, but swallowed it back into his stomach.
This is indeed a helpless thing.
Marriage since ancient times.
It’s all the parents’ orders and matchmaker’s words.
Lu Zhaofeng didn't know what to say. He chose the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, said hello to Mrs. Xia, and left quickly as if he was fleeing in panic.
Just walked to the door.
Lu Zhaofeng's footsteps suddenly paused, and his hands searched around his waist again and again.
"What's wrong?" Lu Zhaolin asked in surprise.
"I think I forgot my purse in there, brother, wait here for me."
After Lu Zhaofeng finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the store without waiting for Lu Zhaolin to speak.
When he entered the store, Mrs. Xia was settling accounts with the shopkeeper.
Xia Siqi stood in the corner alone with her head down.
She stood next to a money tree that was taller than her, looking thin and helpless.
Lu Zhaolin glanced towards Mrs. Xia's position and walked to Xia Siqi's side.
He raised his hand to tap her shoulder to get her attention.
Only the hand was half raised.
He seemed to have thought of something again.
It paused in mid-air, then quickly retracted.
A shadow suddenly appeared above her head, causing Xia Siqi to slowly turn her head.
There was still a faint mist in the corners of her eyes.
Lu Zhaofeng suddenly understood why she was standing here. She just didn't want others to see her crying.
"You..." Lu Zhaofeng paused: "Are you okay?"
Xia Siqi shook her head and glanced in the direction of Madam Xia before retracting her gaze: "Didn't you leave just now? Why are you back again?"
"The purse is missing." Lu Zhaofeng looked around with evasive eyes.
Neither of them spoke anymore.
The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
After a while.
Lu Zhaofeng couldn't help but ask, "Do you really not want to marry the emperor, or do you already have a lover?"
Xia Siqi's eyes trembled: "I have always respected the emperor. He is so high and might say something inappropriate, but I really have always regarded the emperor as an elder. How can I accept marrying an elder?"
Lu Zhaofeng: ...
In fact, they can’t be considered elders.
But Xia Siqi's words really made him at a loss for what to say for a moment.
Lu Zhaofeng cleared his throat unnaturally: “In fact, the emperor is not much older than you.”
"In our village, there is a man who is one year older than me, and I have to call him grandpa." Xia Siqi retorted seriously.
Lu Zhaofeng was stunned for a moment.
If it weren’t for his good concentration.
He almost burst out laughing.
But it is.
This generation is not calculated based on age.
Xia Siqi looked at the changing expressions on his face and asked seriously, "Isn't it true?"
"Hmm?" Lu Zhaofeng said in a tone that seemed a little overwhelmed: "Seniority is not a matter of age."
"Yes." Xia Siqi nodded in approval: "But this husband can't be an elder, right?"
Lu Zhaofeng: ...
It seems that Emperor Yuanwu is not her elder.
There is really no way to communicate!
"It's just a selection now. It doesn't mean that you will stay in the palace once you enter." Lu Zhaofeng said angrily.
