Flirting

His laughter was so piercing in He Yanxi's ears, it was like mocking him for being overconfident.

He got angry, gave him a hard look, and said, "Just wait and see!" He stretched out his hand and pushed his stone-like body, but he didn't push it, so he could only walk around him, holding on to his crutches. He limped and walked outside.

He Chonghai led a group of handmaidens to set up a shed by the river of the two rivers, and sat comfortably on the top chair, taking the time to watch how his son would move the boulder to Mount Jiu'an.

He said such a condition just to dispel He Yanxi's thoughts, not to mention that he still has a lame leg, but with his thin and flat body, one can tell at a glance that he has no strength.

Even if they let the strong soldiers in his army come, there are not many who can push such a huge boulder up Mount Jiu'an.

He thought that if He Yanxi was sensible and heard him say this condition, he would never mention the matter of marrying Aunt Fan'er again, but who knew that he stubbornly agreed.

At this time, the sun was hanging straight, and it was the hottest time of the day.

A maid came up with cool fruits and fanned He Chonghai from the side, but she didn't feel very hot.

But He Yanxi was already sweating profusely, he was not for the heat, but for the urgency.The sun in this season does not bask in the sun, but just warms the body frizzily.

He originally thought that it was just a big rock, and he pushed it slowly, as long as he persisted, there would always be a time to push it to Mount Jiu'an.

But when he stood by the side of the stone, the stone was stripped from his fantasy, and it looked so huge, it was half his head taller, and he couldn't hug it even when he stretched out his hands.

Looking back, it was He Chonghai and a group of people watching anxiously.There are also young daughter-in-laws from the young men in the nearby villages. Those who heard the news also ran over to watch him by the river bank.

With so many bright eyes on him, he was so shy that he wanted to turn around and jump into two streams of water to drown.

He was a little scared, and for a long time he just stood there awkwardly, and those people were still standing and talking without back pain: "Push! You are pushing!"

Before he started pushing, he felt his hands and feet were weak, and he had no strength at all.But as soon as I thought about it, I thought of Gu Shan'er's beautiful face again, and my heart was sweet for a while, and then I was born with infinite courage.

He clamped the crutches under his armpits, pressed both hands on the boulder, found a sunken position, and pushed forward with all his strength, but the boulder remained motionless.

The spectator basked in the sun for half an hour on the bank of the river, and his heart was so hot that he didn't see He Yanxi pushing the stone a little, so he became impatient and said, "Forget it, look at Luotana. It’s no wonder that thin arms and legs can push. We haven’t finished digging the land at home, just watch, I’m leaving first.”

"I still have some work to do in the house, so I don't want to watch the excitement."

All of a sudden they dispersed in twos and threes.

He Chonghai also walked over and said, "Go back, you can't push this stone."

He Yanxi raised his face, his face was covered with hot sweat, the corners of his eyes were already flushed with tears, and he said in a mournful voice, "Father, I really want to marry Aunt Fan."

He Chonghai said: "But you also agreed to my conditions, since you can't push this stone up Mount Jiu'an, don't blame me for not agreeing to this marriage!"

He Yanxi was full of grief and indignation, it seemed that the sudden shattering of his dream made him lose his spirit, and his body fell limply along the stone, wanting to complain but not daring to complain, just murmured in a low voice: "This is clearly your intentional embarrassment!"

He knelt on the ground with one leg bent, leaning forward, his whole body buried in the sand, his shoulders trembling slightly, as if he was crying, or just pure anger.

He Chonghai couldn't bear to look at his useless appearance, and waved to the guards around him: "You! Go and help him back, what does it look like kneeling here!"

The guard stepped forward, picked up the crutches with one hand, and put his arms around him with the other, lifted him up from the ground, and supported him.

He Yanxi limply fell on the bodyguard, his head was drooping, and he refused to lift it up, but the slightly tucked lower jaw showed a little red, but it looked so weak and pitiful, as if there were teardrops hanging on it, wanting to Not yet.

He has long been used to tossing about fate and has become a person who obeys orders wholeheartedly. He finally mustered up the courage to ask Gu Shan'er to marry him, but this result still seems to be expected, but he comforted himself silently with a little humble pity: "Yeah, how can I marry her? It's just my wishful thinking."

Let the guards support him, without any intention of struggling, and want to go back to the palace.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting loudly from a distance: "Slow down."

The voice was both crisp and loud, and He Yanxi's dead heart twitched suddenly, but he didn't dare to look up at her openly, he was really infatuated with her!

How could he be the lover she was looking for who "couldn't change color before the mountain collapsed", he was just a weak embroidered pillow with rotten branches and rotten wood, pretending to be counted.

She will probably see through her true face very quickly, feel utterly disappointed, and despise herself.

But he was still not reconciled, so he reached out and wiped the tears on his face vigorously, not wanting to show her his useless and useless appearance.

She didn't stop until her eye sockets hurt from rubbing, she lowered her hands, tightly grabbed the corners of the clothes on her body, crumpled them, and raised her eyes slightly to look upwards.

The people by the river had already stopped in their tracks, and followed the voice to look over.

I saw Gu Shan'er wearing an indigo blue dress, with a smoky red skirt embroidered with birds knee-high, and a red belt around her waist, which fell softly on her side, sometimes giving her the wind when she was walking. It blows up, elegant and beautiful.

She wore long braids and tied them with long red ribbons behind her back. She wore a cap with embroidered lace on her head, leggings on her legs, and a pair of bright red embroidered shoes with black toe caps on her feet. A cluster of flowers is tightly embroidered, which is particularly eye-catching.

She walked over from a distance, like a ball of fire, blown by the wind, blowing all the way to He Yanxi's heart, burning violently.

When He Chonghai saw her coming, he was also amazed, and he was about to walk towards her uncontrollably.

But after all, he is not a brat like He Yanxi, and he has long since lost the passion to be angry for a beauty, so he quickly calmed down, looked at Gu Shan calmly, nodded slightly, his expression was a little reserved, not revealing. sensuality.

Gu Fan'er quickly approached, and stepped forward to salute: "My lord, please be safe." With a light sweep of her eyes, it was as if the wind was blowing like pearls, and she glanced at He Yanxi, who was dejected by the side, without any trace.

"You don't need to be too polite." King He smiled, stepped forward to hold her hand, and raised her slightly squatting body, "Why are you here?"

Gu Fan'er smiled slightly: "My lord, I heard that you ordered that anyone who can move this boulder up Mount Jiu'an will be betrothed to me, but is it true?"

King He faintly felt that her question was wrong, but he didn't think too much about it, and said, "You are extremely talented, and you have come to my palace again. Naturally, I want to choose a good son-in-law for you."

Gu Fan'er looked behind him with those bright eyes, and those unmarried relatives, generals, and guards hurriedly stretched out their hands to straighten their clothes and hats, and each of them straightened their backs so that she could pay attention to him. to myself.

"Then who can move this stone?"

In front of everyone, even if King He had some selfish intentions, he couldn't immediately turn back, so he could only follow her words: "It's a pity that no one has this supernatural power."

Gu Shan'er sighed slightly and said, "I don't know who my marriage will fall on."

The young men she recruited by her words were just ready to move, wishing they could stand up and give it a try.It's just that because King He was present, he also knew that his condition for moving the boulder was only for He Yanxi, so he didn't dare to make a mistake.

Seeing her lonely expression, He Chonghai frowned slightly with her dark eyebrows like distant mountains, his eyes trembled slightly, and his heart flickered, wishing he could immediately make this beauty his own.He held her hand tightly, kneaded her flesh carefully, and said with a smile, "Maybe it's right in front of us."

He Yanxi, who was on the side, saw those slender and white hands being held in his father's, and knew that he was also thinking about the girl fan, otherwise why would he blame himself like this.

I just felt pain in my heart, my face was pale, and my eyes were empty and lifeless, like fish waiting to be slaughtered on a chopping board, completely giving up hope of life.

Gu Fan'er didn't know what he was thinking, instead she raised her eyebrows and said softly: "My lord, may I ask for your permission?"

He Chonghai felt his heart melt when he heard her whisper, and asked softly, "What favor do you want?"

Gu Fan'er smiled slightly: "If I can move this boulder up Mount Jiu'an, can I choose one of the people present to be my husband?"

He Chonghai was surprised and surprised, annoyed and angry, so he let go of her hand, and asked with a slightly majestic tone, "Who do you want to pick?"

Gu Shan'er was not shy, and said, "Of course I pick the one who treats me most sincerely."

He Chonghai was distressed: "Could it be that she will fall in love with that idiot Xiaoer?"

Then I thought: "I promised her that it would be fine. Could it be that she, a little girl, can move that boulder? Sooner or later, she will still be mine!"

So he laughed and said: "You are so courageous, I will reward you with this kindness. Among the people present today, as long as you like it, I will promise to be your husband. But... I am afraid that your little hand will not be able to shake it." That boulder."

Gu Fan'er laughed and said, "Your Majesty, don't underestimate me."

He rolled up his sleeves, revealing a small piece of smooth arm, then walked to the edge of the boulder, circled around, and finally stood still on the side of the stone, squatting down slightly, stretching his hands, pressing his five fingers on the stone vigorously On both sides, hugged.

Everyone stood around and didn't believe that such a watery girl like her could lift this boulder, and they secretly speculated which one she had her eyes on.
