Chapter 304 A Girl’s Mind
As the only daughter of an official family, Shi Xiaohan was dedicated to training to be a lady since she was a child. In addition, she has a simple personality and is not familiar with the world, and she is always focused on practicing sword skills. , slaying demons and demons, so he knows nothing about things between men and women.
According to the common practice in the Daqi Dynasty, knowledge in this area is usually not imparted to a woman until she gets married.
"Miss, do you know how a couple gives birth to a child?" Chen Xi continued to say.
"Isn't it true that sleeping in the same bed at night will lead to pregnancy?" Shi Xiaohan frowned slightly, not understanding why Chen Xi would seriously mention this well-known simple question to her.
"No, of course not." Chen Xi smiled and shook his head.
Later, Chen Xi took out an old yellowed picture album from the box and handed it to Shi Xiaohan's hand.
At the same time, she also briefly described the matter in simple and obscure language.
Shi Xiaohan narrowed his eyes and opened the old picture album curiously. He saw the numerous little people without clothes in the album. Hearing Chen Xi's words, his brows could not help but frown more and more.
She originally thought that the so-called "bridal night" meant newlyweds sleeping together in the same bed.
However, she didn't expect...
"Bang!"
The old picture album slipped from her hands and fell to the ground. She stood there blankly, her lips slightly parted, and it took a long time before she came back to her senses.
Thinking that such a terrible thing would happen after she got married, her mind went blank, and her porcelain-white and smooth face blushed like sunset.
This is so embarrassing!
"Chen...Chen Xi..." She looked at the personal maid beside her and stammered.
"What are your instructions, Miss?"
"I...Is it too late for me to break off the engagement now?"
"Cancel the engagement?" Chen Xi frowned and asked her I was quite puzzled by the question, "Miss, weren't you still counting the days earlier today and looking forward to the arrival of the wedding? Why did you suddenly think of breaking off the engagement?"
Shi Xiaohan lowered his head and bit He pursed his lips and said nothing.
She couldn't say that when she imagined the little people in the old picture album as Gu Xu and herself, she couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart - a little shy, a little scared, a little uneasy...
In addition, there seems to be a little bit of curiosity and a little bit of expectation? "I...I'm just joking, don't take it seriously." Thinking of this, she immediately shook her head, hurriedly leaving a sentence, and ran out of the room. Her soft and shiny earlobes had already turned red.
Chen Xi stood there, watching her back disappear from sight, and couldn't help but smile.
She sighed silently in her heart that her young lady was about to get married, but she was still a blank slate and a silly girl. She didn’t know if she would be bullied after getting married.
.........
Although the wedding process of the Daqi Dynasty was cumbersome, perhaps because of the presence of a large number of female practitioners, it was not too conservative, and there was no rule that unmarried men and women were not allowed to meet before the wedding.
So, during his free time during training, Gu Xu carried the snacks he bought on the streets of Luojing City and went to Longmen Academy to visit Shi Xiaohan, as usual.
Although the two had worked together for a long time and shared weal and woe, after their engagement, their relationship finally became a little different from before.
They stood face to face at the entrance of the academy. Gu Xu's eyes fell on Shi Xiaohan. Shi Xiaohan's cheeks were slightly red, and his eyes were constantly evading and wandering, as if he didn't want to look at him.
The "bottom of the box" in the dowry box and the old picture album left a deep imprint on her mind and appeared repeatedly in her dreams at night.
After a short silence, Gu Xu cleared his throat and said to her with a smile: "My lady, heroine, shall we go to the Luo River to have barbecue together today?"
Hear " The word "BBQ" didn't cross his mind when Shi Xiaohan thought about it, so he said "Yeah" without thinking.
Before she could react, Gu Xu stepped forward and held her little hand hidden under her sleeve.
The girl's hands were slightly cold, and her skin was smooth and boneless, as if it was made of water.
She was stunned for two seconds, blinked, and tried to retract her hand, but in the end she let Gu Xu hold it.
Seeing this girl's reaction, Gu Xu couldn't help but feel a little funny - the two were obviously engaged, but today was the first time they actually held hands, which seemed a little awkward and awkward.
Then, the young unmarried couple boarded the carriage and headed straight in the direction of Luoshui.
