But Mrs. Tao took He Lina's hand and asked her what was wrong.He Lina threw the wet towel into the washbasin and said with a smile, "I'm not doing well!" But Mrs. He didn't pay attention to this, and had already walked away.Mrs. Tao saw that there was no one in the room outside, so she laughed softly, "Why are you crying?" He Lina sighed and said, "Women are always infatuated, no matter whether their thoughts are new or old. I really feel sorry for the family tree." A lot of grievances. You know about these things, and I will not hide them from you." Mrs. Tao said: "Fortunately, the big event has succeeded now, why should you still be sad about the past." He Lina said: Just because of the current situation , It caused my previous troubles.As the saying goes, people's hearts come to light after a long time..." Mrs. Tao patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't have children.Don't you love family trees?If you say that you are so responsible, it seems that there is something wrong with it, and it is not that you really love him. "He Lina smiled, and stopped talking. Mrs. Tao said that she had tears on her face, so she couldn't go out. Then He Lina wiped her face, and in front of the dressing table, applied a thin layer of French face powder on her face. And a little rouge was applied. Mrs. Tao just pursed her lips and smiled. In the small guest room, the host and guest sat and talked for a long time, and they didn't separate until twelve o'clock.

Parting, Mrs. Tao smiled to He Lina and said, "Come to play at our house tomorrow. Tomorrow is Sunday, and the family tree will not go back to school." He Lina smiled and said, "I should rest." Mrs. Tao said, "Don't you Are you going to our place? In fact, everything should be the same as before; I'm not kidding." Mrs. He laughed and said, "Mrs. Tao, you are wrong. Even if it was what you said just now, if you want her to call you cousin, a cousin always jokes about her cousin like this, and says You love our Lina!" Mrs. Tao left with a smile on her face.

This night was He Lina's happiest night. When it was past one o'clock, she called Tao's house before going to bed, and asked if Master Biao was asleep.It was Liu Fu who answered the phone and quietly told the family tree.As soon as Jiashu came down from the upper room, he went to answer the phone in the small living room outside.He Lina was the first to ask where to answer the call.After getting up, he said: "Will I come tomorrow?" Jiashu said: "It's okay, come on." He Lina said: "It's embarrassing." Jiashu said: "Then you don't come." He Lina said: " That seems like I'm not generous." Before Jiashu could answer, a third person suddenly answered on the phone: "Look, this is really embarrassing!" Jiashu said with a smile: Drink!My cousin is eavesdropping on the latch in the bedroom.When the phone rang, I knew it was Mi Sihe..." After a pause, she seemed to be talking to someone, and then said: "Bo He said that he shouldn't be called Mi Sihe. " So he said in a man's voice, "Cousin, cousin, congratulations." He Lina said: "Worthless!" "After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone with a bang. Jiashu walked back to the study, and heard Libo and his wife in the upper room laughing together.

On the next day, Jiashu did not return to school, and He Lina came at ten o'clock.Mrs. Tao took the opportunity to threaten and asked Ms. He to buy a movie and dinner.After playing until night, I have to go to the dancing hall again.It was Bohe who made the siege and said, "Why isn't Miss like before, for the sake of the family tree, she didn't dance. How can she go now? Don't you see that people wear moccasins?"It wasn't until twelve o'clock in the night that I began to go home. When He Lina was so happy, He Lian became embarrassing at home.It turned out that that night, a Chief Xia Yunshan came to visit him.This man is Shen Guoying's brother, the current chief of communications, and has great influence in politics.When he came that night, He Lian invited him to the secret room for a meeting.Xia Yunshan first laughed and said: "I came here today for private purposes, not to talk about business, I want you to be a faithful critic, how is Guoying? But I have something to say, don't think he is my ally, just compliment him Him." He Lian couldn't figure out why he said this.Shen Guoying is the person who holds the military power, so he can criticize randomly at first!Then he smiled and said: "He is young and handsome, of course he is a talented person in the country, this time the political situation is reforming..." Xia Yunshan waved his hands again and again: "No, no, I said that I came here today for private purposes, you only said that he behaved outside of official business You can do whatever you want." He Lian leaned back in the chair, smoked a cigar, raised his head and thought quietly, when he peeked at Xia Yunshan, he saw him lying on the couch and smiling.This situation is not serious, but he couldn't figure out what the intention of his question was, so he smiled and said, "In terms of his personal morality—is he also very good. First, he will never afford it, which is rare among young soldiers! A little money may be there, but it doesn't hurt. I heard that he loves dancing and photography, which are the unavoidable hobbies of modern young people. He is very modest and his ideas are not old-fashioned. I heard that now he has invited an old gentleman to work with him Talking about history is not bad.” Xia Yunshan nodded and smiled: “This is not an outrageous compliment. What about his appearance?” He Lian smiled and said: “Why do you want to talk about someone’s appearance? I am the same for astrology, but Layman." Xia Yunshan said with a smile: "Since you have such a good impression, I can say it first. Guoying admires Ling Ai very much, and he is very willing to regard the two families as good friends of Qin and Jin. But he thought about it, afraid Mr. He has already had a son-in-law. He asked around, some said yes, some said no, and asked me to find out the news." He Lian couldn't help hesitating for a while after hearing this, and then said: "It's true. The little girl didn't mention the marriage issue before. In the last two months, only a person surnamed Fan mentioned this matter, and it was only two days ago that it was finalized." Xia Yunshan said: "Is it already settled?" He Lian said: "My little girl has a very new idea. The child surnamed Fan is also a college student. What kind of ceremony do they need?" After hearing this, Xia Yunshan sighed twice and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity!" After a long silence, He asked again: "Can you think of a way to turn things around?" He Lian said: "If I were from an old family, this would not be a problem. There are no marriage ceremonies, and I can overthrow the whole situation at will. Today, children's Marriage is built on love. As parents, how can we be strong against each other! The little girl went to spend this Sunday with the child named Fan. When she comes back, I will ask her again, what about Shen Tongzhi? I have no choice but to say it's a pity. But seeing Shen Tongzhi, I hope your elder brother should make a more tactful statement." As he spoke, he bowed his hands to Xia Yunshan several times.Xia Yunshan was very disappointed that this month's old man was not successful, but due to the reality, there was no other way, so he left in a very disappointed mood.

When Xia Yunshan went out, He Lina came back and went to her mother's room, telling her that today was a very happy day.He Lian heard it, but couldn't help sighing, and explained Xia Yunshan's reason for coming tonight.He Lina said: "Father, don't hesitate. I know what you mean. I think you can't force my marriage; but Shen Guoying has military power and dare not offend him. It doesn't matter. I will meet him tomorrow and send my marriage to him. Let me tell you about the difficulty, and maybe he will forgive me." He Lian said: "Isn't it inappropriate for you to go to see him in person?" He Lina said: "It doesn't matter, can he still detain me?" She said After that, I went to sleep peacefully.

On the next day, He Lina woke up early.So I went to Shen's house to pay a visit.It turned out that Shen Guoying had a wife before, but she passed away two years ago, and now she has a son and a daughter, and there are brothers and sisters-in-law on top, so although he has no family members, he still has a large house.He Lina found out that he was going to the Yamen at nine o'clock and would come to visit at eight o'clock.The concierge sent the name AE 琝f2 to the upper room, and Shen Guoying was shocked when she saw it: I sent someone to be a matchmaker yesterday, yes, you are too embarrassed to see me; if you don’t agree, it’s okay, why don’t you come? Is it okay to ask the teacher of the crime?It's just that she came and couldn't see her, so she immediately came to the living room.When He Lina saw him, she reached out and shook hands with him early on.He took off the gray coat and put it on the chair.Sitting down, before saying a word of greeting, he first smiled and said, "I have nothing else to do today, so I came here to apologize to Shen Tongzhi." Although Shen Guoying is a bold soldier, after hearing this, her heart moved slightly, and she couldn't help but blush She got up and said with a smile, "Hey! Miss He is too polite, what's the matter?" The servants poured tea, and Shen Guoying said, "Go to the kitchen and make me two cups of lemon tea. Miss He is here. Prepare two snacks for me." He Lina smiled and said: You are welcome, I will leave after a few words.Shen Tingzhi has something to do, so I won't say much, what my father replied to what Mr. Xia said last night when he went to She Xia was all the truth.Not only that, I want to implement my plan to go abroad, and I will leave soon.Originally, I didn't have to go to the mansion to explain it in person, but my father felt that this matter was very offensive, as if he was lying sincerely, I think Shen Tongzhi is a free-spirited person, and I am very romantic, "Speaking of this , and said with a slight smile: If it weren't for being romantic, I wouldn't have come to visit the house today. Said: "Too polite, too polite. "He Lina raised her eyebrows, dimpled, and said with a smile: "This is the truth.I think the truth is like this, so it doesn't matter, it's better to say it directly, so that each other can feel calm.If Shen Tongzhi was someone like General Liu Dezhu, I wouldn't have taken the risk. She lifted her shoulders with a smile, and looked at Shen Guoying. Shen Guoying was wearing a military uniform today. He stretched out his chest and pulled the hem of his clothes to cover up his timid attitude, and coughed again silently. Cai said: "It doesn't matter at all, please don't mind. When He Lina heard that, she immediately stood up, bowed to him and said, "I don't dare to make too much noise, goodbye." Shen Guoying said with a smile: "Even if Miss He doesn't want to be with warriors, since you're here, it probably doesn't matter if you go have a cup of tea." He Lina laughed and said, "I'd like to bother you, but I'm afraid Shen Tongzhi doesn't have time to meet guests." As he spoke, he sat down again. It was the footman who brought tea and put it on a rosewood table, and the two sat down across the table.

At that moment, Shen Guoying raised his cup and drank tea, looked at He Lina, then looked at the coat, remembering what He Lian said that day in the living room of He's house, he thought that the guest in the living room that day was Fan, and he had Blessed to have such a wife.Seeing his ecstasy, He Lina smiled and said, "What is Shen Tongzhi thinking? Don't be disappointed. For a young hero like you, the marriage problem is the easiest to solve. A talent like me can be cared for and saved. Let's choose after the opportunity." Shen Guoying said with a smile: "I think warriors are always rude, and I feel that what happened yesterday was a bit presumptuous, please don't go into it." He Lina smiled, picked up the glass cup, and took two sips of tea .Sitting opposite her, Shen Guoying looked at her scarlet lips and snow-white teeth, and felt a little delusional.He Lina put down the teacup, then stood up suddenly, Shen Guoying took a step forward, took the coat in his hand, and was about to put it on for her.He Lina even said "I dare not be".However, he took the coat and insisted on putting it on for him!He Lina said "Excuse me", so she had to turn her back to face him and put on her coat.Unexpectedly, when Shen Guoying was getting dressed with her, when she smelled the scent of makeup and powder on her body, she was stunned, and she pinched the collar of her clothes, and did not let it go.He Lina looked back, and he realized that he put down his hand.Seeing this, He Lina didn't dare to sit any longer, shook hands with him again, said "goodbye" with a smile, and left immediately.

Shen Guoying had no choice but to follow her to the gate and saw He Lina got into the car before going back.He didn't go back to the room, but still walked into the living room.The cup of lemon tea that He Lina put was still on the table, so she took the cup in her hand, turned it around and looked at it, thinking in her heart: If she was mine, I would like to sit with her every day. Come down for lemon tea.Needless to say anything else, just the red lips and white teeth are enough to make people nostalgic!Thinking silently in her heart, probably the place where the cup is facing her bosom is where He Lina's lips touched, so she aimed at that direction and sipped the tea slowly.The side where I stand is in front of her chair, so sitting on this chair is like sitting on her body.He sat down, squeezed the cup with one hand, supported his head with the other, and thought quietly: If I had such a wife, I could take her to any social occasion. Fluency and good manners are definitely the qualifications of a civilized wife.However, she was snatched away by others not long ago. If I had done this matter a month or two ago, I might have managed to win such a handsome new wife, and my life would be satisfied.Thinking of this, he slightly closed his eyes, thinking about the situation of holding He Lina's arm.Thinking about it, I could smell something in my nose, as if there was a kind of fragrance, which kept hitting my nose.Immediately opened his eyes and saw that it was not an empty living room, where was there any woman?But even though there are no women at present, the vague fragrance can still be smelled.Yes, yes, this must be the fragrance that fell from her clothes when she was sitting on this chair.She has been away for so long, but the fragrance still lingers as if there is nothing. This is definitely not due to pure material reasons, and there is also a psychological effect.Looking at it this way, he was going crazy for Miss He.I am such an imposing man, I can still control China's political situation, but can't I control such a woman?With my strength, in the city of Beijing, let's say it is He Lina, just... Thinking of this, I suddenly stood up, squeezed my fist, and slapped the table hard.Pausing for a while, I suddenly shook my head, thinking, take your time, he is so daring, tell me what he says from the bottom of his heart, how can I have bad intentions towards him!She thought I was a warrior, and she was afraid of using force in case of trouble, so she used reason to move me. If I force others again, I will be no different from Liu Dezhu!Are all warriors the same breed?I can't let people expect that a real man can handle things and put them down. Forget it, I forgot about her!He thought so deeply by himself that he had already forgotten about the time when he went to the Yamen.

That Xia Yunshan came out of the He family last night, and came here to write back to Shen Guoying, saying that He Jieshen didn't know what he was thinking, but he never agreed to the matter we mentioned.Shen Guoying smiled, and only said that love cannot be forced, and she didn't mention it anymore.Xia Yunshan couldn't figure it out, so early this morning, he called to ask if the control had gone out.The servant here replied that just now a Miss He came to visit the governor, she was sitting alone in the living room and hadn't left yet.Xia Yunshan heard that Miss He had surrendered, so he quickly got into the car and went to Shen's house to check on the news.

At this time, Shen Guoying was still sitting in the living room.Xia Yunshan is an acquaintance who doesn't come every day, so he doesn't need to inform, he just walks in.When he walked into the living room, he saw Shen Guoying sitting on a red sandalwood chair, propped up the chair with one hand, supported his head, put the other hand on the chair, and just patted it lightly.His eyes only looked at the pattern on the carpet, and he didn't look straight ahead. He didn't know that Xia Yunshan came in.He suddenly slapped the table, and shouted loudly: "I'm determined to forget her. If I don't forget her, I can't be considered a husband!" Xia Yunshan was startled by his gesture, took a step back, and asked: "What's wrong with Guoying?" Shen Guoying raised her head and saw Brother Meng arrived, she stood up, shook her head and said, "He Lina is a woman, I love her, I hate her, and I admire her." Xia Yunshan said with a smile: "What's the reason?" Shen Guoying repeated what He Lina said today.Yin said: "This woman, I really don't care about her!" Xia Yunshan said with a smile: "Since my brother Tai said so, I want to say something more thoughtful, there are so many beautiful women in the world, why bother! Let Miss He As for this kind of fashionable woman, she doesn't know anything other than spending money, you will be happy if you forget her." Shen Guoying laughed loudly and said, "I forgot her, I forgot her! "Xia Yunshan saw that his attitude was really abnormal, so he persuaded him, pulled him out of the door, and let him go to the yamen.

After Xia Yunshan went through this incident, he couldn't help mentioning a few words to his second and third confidantes, and passed them on from time to time, and these words were passed on to Tao Bo and his ears.In view of the big trouble caused by Shen Fengxi, Tao Bohe felt that it would be very dangerous for Jiashu and Shen Guoying to compete in a love triangle, so they came up with a way with them, causing even more twists and turns.If you want to know the twists and turns, I will explain it next time.
