Kneel down and beg to return to the field

Chapter 21 The heart beats unconsciously

Because of the secret of his identity, Wei Lai never dared to get close to others.In these 23 years of living, she has never held hands with anyone except her mother, regardless of gender.

While Wei Lai was greatly surprised by An Qi's initiative, she subconsciously made a move.However, this girl somehow possessed brute strength, Wei Lai's subconscious struggle was unable to break free, and she was dragged from the marshal's mansion to the street by An Qi.

Wei Lai is used to being easy-going and never embarrassing others. An Qi is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, so she will naturally be more lenient.So after regaining his senses, Wei Lai stopped trying to break free, and only coughed lightly to remind him: "Miss An, it seems inappropriate for you to pull me like this in such a large crowd."

It's just a handshake, which is not a big deal in An Qi's view, Dang even snorted softly: "I can't tell, Brother Wei, you are pedantic. I don't care anymore, what else do you care about. "But after all, she let go of her hand after all, and only held her head up, pretending to be proud and disdainful.

An Qi is actually not a person who doesn't know the importance and etiquette, but she has reached the age of sixteen or seventeen now, she is not a little girl who doesn't know anything, and her marriage is imminent.Marshal Wei arranged for her to get along with Wei Lai this time, and she naturally didn't know what it was for. In addition, she also liked Wei Lai, so she unconsciously developed a little closeness.

Wei Lai naturally didn't think about it so much, she looked at An Qi as if she was looking at a child who had no scruples, even if she might get closer in the future, she was just a younger sister.As for what Marshal Wei and An Qi think, she doesn't care at all, because she has never thought about what to do with An Qi.

She is doomed to be lonely in her life, so why bother with other people?

As for thinking about it, Wei Lai couldn't help feeling a little sad.It's just that many years have passed, and she has long passed the time of complaining, so she didn't show anything at the moment, she just said: "Miss An, don't you want to go to the south of the city? It's not too early now, let's go Bar."

Although An Qi's previous behavior was a bit reckless, she is actually a rough and fine person.Although Wei Lai never said anything, and even his expression didn't change much, she just knew that Wei Lai was in a bad mood.The little girl pursed her lips, feeling a little aggrieved, but she didn't say anything after all, she just nodded obediently and followed Wei Lai.

Like shopping, this is probably a woman's nature.Regardless of rich or poor, regardless of age, regardless of region or even regardless of age, it is the same on this point.However, there are always accidents in the world, and unfortunately, Wei Lai was such an accident.

Wei Lai doesn't like shopping, and she doesn't like shopping either.When she was at home, her mother prepared everything for her, and after the expedition, she had no time or opportunity to go shopping. Now that she finally returned to the capital and went to the military camp a few times, none of the rough guys who went with her would like to go shopping. .She was used to this kind of life, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Ever since, going shopping with An Qi today has become novel and helpless to Wei Lai.

After all, An Qi is just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, who happened to be pampered by her family when she grew up, and her temperament is also pure.The unhappiness and worries of the moment when she first went out have long been left behind by her at this moment, her eyes are completely attracted by the excitement in the south of the city, and she wants to take a look at whatever novelty she sees.

Compared with An Qi's curiosity and enthusiasm of running around watching the excitement, Wei Lai's performance seemed much calmer.Although she was born in a small town in the south and just came back from northern Xinjiang, her knowledge is not as wide as that of An Qi, but she is interested in those things. nor.

"Brother Wei, there are a lot of people in front of us, and I don't know what they are selling. You can go and have a look with me." An Qi just bought a delicate hairpin from a nearby shop, and as soon as she went out, she saw the street in front of her. A circle of people.She was happy shopping, she had long forgotten the unhappiness before, and now she was even a little carried away, and immediately hugged Wei Lai's arm when she was excited.

Wei Lai was taken aback, and hurried away: "Miss An, it's not good to be seen."

Seeing that Wei Lai was afraid of being misunderstood by others and wanted to separate himself from him, no matter how straightforward An Qi's temper was, she still felt displeased.She curled her lips, and couldn't care less about watching the excitement, she just stared into Wei Lai's eyes and asked, "Wei Lai, do you hate me?"

It's just a little too warm and close, so naturally it's not annoying, and with Wei Lai's temperament, she rarely hates someone.So she shook her head honestly, and said, "Of course not. But... it's just that I'm not used to it."

Wei Lai's words are always sympathetic to others, and An Qi's face looks much better after hearing this.She thought that Wei Lai had fought in northern Xinjiang for seven years, and was surrounded by men. He probably didn't know how to get along with girls, right?So he eased his expression again, and didn't mention this, Qian pointed to the crowd in front of him: "Then let's go and have a look."

Seeing that An Qi's face returned to normal and she didn't make any more moves, Wei Lai also heaved a sigh of relief.She said "yes" and followed An Qi to the place where the crowd gathered.

Not far away, a little girl was staring viciously at the backs of the two people who were going away, complaining angrily while staring: "Miss, look, that Wei Lai is really not a good person. This one in public, just She's flirting with a girl's family, and she's a prodigal son! I really don't know what the master likes about her."

He Zhi pursed her lips, but ignored Xi Qiu's complaints.She stood there and thought for a while, and finally stepped forward, towards the direction that Wei Lai and the two were walking...

※※※

When Wei Lai and An Qi walked to the place where the crowd gathered, there were already more and more people gathered. The three-tiered posture there made it impossible for those who came after to see what happened to you.But people always like to join in the fun, the more people around, the more curious the people outside are, so even though they couldn't see what happened, no one left.

An Qi stood at the outermost edge and looked around for a long time, but she couldn't see anything about the bustle inside except for the blackness of people's heads.She pouted, a little unhappy.

Wei Lai was not interested in joining in the fun, but seeing that An Qi was unhappy, thinking about the previous two rejections, she finally made a move. It was a road that was abruptly diverted, leading An Qi into the innermost part of the crowd.

An Qi happily followed Wei Lai in, but when she got inside, she was a little disappointed.With so many people surrounding her, they thought there was some excitement to watch, but in the middle of the crowd, there was only an old woman selling jade pendants.And at a glance, the only jade pendant on the stall is nothing special, the people outside probably surrounded it without knowing it?

Like An Qi, Wei Lai was also surprised, but there was always a reason why so many people came to watch.She glanced at the jade pendant that the old woman was selling. She didn't know jade, and she didn't know whether the jade was valuable, but she just thought it looked pretty.Just looking at the small sign standing next to it, her eyes suddenly widened a bit—for the jade pendant that looked very ordinary, the old woman actually asked for 100 taels, and she didn't even bargain? !

Is 100 taels too much?For a wealthy family, there are naturally not many, not even a drop in the bucket. Is 100 taels less?For ordinary people, it is definitely not much, enough for a family of five to eat for ten years!

The old lady just set up a small stall on the side of the street, and most of the children of rich and noble families would not buy things in this kind of place, so for those who came and went, this thing was a sky-high price.There are not many people who understand jade, and there are not many people who have money to buy it, but there have never been many people watching the excitement, and gradually they have surrounded these people.

Just as Wei Lai recovered from the shock of the "100 taels" price tag, he heard an idler say: "Old woman, you have been setting up the stall for a whole day and no one has come to see it, which shows that this thing is not very good. I'll pay you a tael of silver, you sell it to me, then pack up and go home."

The old woman selling jade pendants was dressed in plain clothes, and her family didn't seem to be considered wealthy, but she was calm and calm, and there were so many people watching that she didn't seem to be panicking or cowering.After hearing what the idle man said, she raised her eyelids and glanced at him lazily: "100 taels, no bargain."

Fortunately, the idle man said it casually, and he was not very angry when he saw that the other party ignored him, he just hummed a few words: "I don't see any good for a piece of broken jade, but I still want to sell it for 100 taels." ?! I see, this stall will not be expected until next year."

People around laughed, but no one wanted to buy it.This group of people was just watching the fun, but they surrounded the place tightly, and even if there were people outside who might want to buy something, they couldn't get in.The old woman's stall was probably for nothing, but she was not angry, and she answered people who asked her, but the words were less.

This excitement is really nothing to watch.Wei Lai didn't want to see the old woman wasting time here, and was ridiculed by everyone, and he didn't want to waste 100 taels of silver to buy some kind of jade pendant - 100 taels of silver can buy a lot of fertile land in his hometown - so She frowned slightly, and planned to call An Qi beside her to leave together.

However, just as Wei Lai turned his head, he heard a female voice behind him softly say: "Grandma, can you let me take a look at your jade pendant?"

His heart skipped a beat unconsciously, and Wei Lai hurriedly turned his head.As expected, it was the face that was already extremely familiar.
