Mrs. Guo said: "Yes, A Ying and Zijian were originally going to get engaged."
Huo Yingwei almost twisted his waist.
"engagement?!"
Huo Yingwei said nervously: "Is it too early?!"
"No, A-Ying has reached the age to talk about marriage. In the past, we always wanted to..."
Mrs. Guo stopped mid-sentence.
But Huo Yingwei knew what she was going to say.
The Guo family never disliked the Huo family for being poor.
They respect their daughter's wishes very much. Since her daughter likes Huo Shengfeng, they are willing to accept it.
However, after such a long time, the Huo family showed no sign of it.
They can't turn a good daughter into an old maid.
Back at Prince Huo's Mansion, Huo Yingwei took the little orb and circled around the door.
He just doesn't want to go back.
"Don't tell anything you heard from your Aunt Guo today..."
Huo Yingwei wanted to tell Xiao Baozhu not to tell her elder brother.
But halfway through speaking, Huo Yingwei hesitated again.
Huo Shengfeng cannot marry others and cannot be responsible for others.
Do we still want to delay others for a lifetime?
and……
Huo Yingwei patted Xiao Baozhu's head and said, "If you want, just talk to your elder brother."
Let Xiao Baozhu go and have a chat, maybe they can come up with something else.
Marriage cannot be forced.
As a father, he can only take one step at a time.
Time passes slowly day by day.
Zhou Zijian's injuries gradually recovered.
But he suffered a sequelae, that is, he could not see the little orb.
Otherwise, he would be terrified.
During the days when Zhou Zijian was recovering from his injuries, Ah Ying was very happy.
She had more time to spend with Huo Shengfeng.
However, Zhou Zijian will always get better one day.
The better his health, the less time A Ying can go to the next door.
On this day, she finally came.
Xiao Baozhu ate the cakes she brought and held Aying's hand.
"Sister Aying, you haven't been here for a long time. I miss you so much."
"I miss you too." Ah Ying smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear in a very gentle manner.
There were only three of them sitting under the big banyan tree, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.
Huo Shengfeng couldn't help but look at A Ying secretly.
Ah Ying spoke very little today.
Seeing that it was time to go back, Ah Ying seemed to suddenly summon up the courage.
"A Feng, let's go."
"Okay, where are you going?"
Huo Shengfeng didn't hear what she meant.
Little Baozhu also came closer, Little Baozi had a chubby face, "Where are you going, can you take me with you?"
Ah Ying was a little sorry, "I may not be able to bring the orb this time."
Huo Shengfeng looked at her strangely, "Where are you going? Why are you so strange today?"
"We...can we go to a place where no one knows us?"
Huo Shengfeng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened, "You want us to be private -"
Before the word "Ben" came out, he swallowed it back.
"No!"
Huo Shengfeng refused.
Elopement is a big deal.
If he hires her as his wife and concubine, he can't deny her status to Aying for the rest of his life.
not to mention……
Huo Shengfeng's eyes dimmed, "Ah Ying, we... are just friends."
Ah Ying's fingertips trembled slightly.
She forced a smile and said, "Yes, we are just friends."
Ah Ying stood up and walked away from the banyan tree step by step.
Xiao Baozhu felt something was wrong, so she dropped the snacks and ran a few steps forward to keep up with A Ying.
Ah Ying was not crying, but her expression at the moment was even more sad than crying.
"Sister Aying, aren't you happy?" Xiao Baozhu held her hand.
Ah Ying paused, her face obviously smiling, but there was a trace of pain in her eyes.
She seemed to have a lot to say.
But a long time passed and she didn't say a word.
She just pinched Xiao Baozhu's cheek gently and said, "Go back, Baozhu, I'm fine."
Something is wrong.
This is very wrong!
Looking at Ah Ying's leaving figure, Little Baozhu pursed her lips.
Ah Ying shouldn't look so sad.
The sister Aying she knew was always smiling.
Could it be that someone bullied her? !
That won't work!
Little Baozhu clenched her fists.
No one can bully her favorite sister A Ying!
She wanted to follow him and see what happened.
Little Baozhu followed A Ying quietly.
When Ah Ying returned to Guo's house, the door was closed.
Little Baozhu stepped forward and was about to knock on the door when he retracted his hand.
She wanted to see what happened to sister A Ying.
It would be bad if Ah Ying found out that she was following her.
The investigation must be done quietly.
Xiao Baozhu thought for a while and walked around to the other side of the wall.
There is a dog hole somewhere.
Little Baozhu quietly climbed in from the dog hole.
"Huh? Woof!"
Dahuang is the Guo family's dog. It looks like a little leopard and is majestic.
Normally, everyone is afraid of it, except Little Orb.
Seeing Little Baozhu crawling in, Big Yellow barked, curiously stepped forward and sniffed Little Baozhu.
Little Baozhu's face was itchy from the smell.
She hugged Dahuang's head and said, "Okay, okay, I'll play with you next time. This time I have something important to do."
"Uh, woof woof."
Dahuang was a little disappointed, but still licked the little orb.
The Guo family is also very big, so she has to look for A Ying on her own, and she doesn’t know when she will find her.
"Da Huang, do you know where sister A Ying is?" Xiao Baozhu touched it, "Can you take me there?"
Dahuang blew out a breath from his nose and squatted down.
Little Baozhu knew that it was beckoning her to come up.
On weekdays, this is how Little Baozhu rides Dahuang.
Dahuang sniffed the air and walked forward with the little orb.
Rhubarb is worthy of being rhubarb. Along the way, it avoided people with its little orbs.
Therefore, no one in the Guo family noticed that Xiao Baozhu sneaked into the Guo family quietly.
Walking to the small lake, Da Huang hummed softly a few times.
Little Baozhu stretched his neck to look over.
It’s Sister Aying!
She patted Da Huang and said, "Quick, hide where sister A Ying can't see her!"
Dahuang was very clever and took her to the back of a small rockery.
Little Baozhu quietly poked his head out.
Sister Aying was sitting in the middle of the lake, looking at something in a daze.
All in all, he didn't look happy.
She was looking at A Ying so intently that she didn't notice the footsteps next to her.
It wasn't until the owner of the footsteps spoke that Xiao Baozhu realized that it was Zhou Zijian who was here.
"Did you go to Huo's house again?"
When Zhou Zijian opened his mouth, he was cold and his attitude was very arrogant.
Zhou Zijian's wound from the wasp sting was almost healed.
However, he had a pockmarked face.
Ah Ying ignored him.
Zhou Zijian stepped forward and held Ah Ying's hand, "Can't you hear what I'm asking you?!"
Ah Ying seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, "Where I go is my freedom and you have no control over it!"
"Who said I can't control it?!" Zhou Zijian looked fierce, "I am your future husband-in-law, of course I can control you!"
