Chapter 155 Arrange for her
He didn't answer her, but leaned close to her and whispered, "I won't sell my yard, and I've hired someone to look after it. That person's name is Xiaolu. If you need anything from me in the future, just tell him."
"Also, I've already told Lord Yan to do his best to take care of you. I'm afraid I won't have much time to come over after I return to the capital, but I'll come to see you whenever I have time. If you have anything you want to tell me or need my help, you can write to me and give it to Xiaolu."
Yu Huatang lowered his head to organize his things and said, "My lord, you are overthinking about me, a commoner. I don't need your care."
He smiled and said, "Yes, what if you want to get married again? At least you can remember my kindness. Even if you have to wait in line, I will be the first one not to do it."
Yu Huatang looked over and saw that he was talking to her very seriously. She lowered her head again and said, "My lord, when you return to the capital, the most important thing is to find a good match as soon as possible."
"I think you are my perfect match. Why don't you just bear with it and marry me?" Zhao Yan came over and said.
Yu Huatang glared at him and stopped looking at him. Then he said, "Can we go in and talk?"
Although the waiters in the hall were all busy, they were all listening with their ears perked up. He saw her panic and signaled her with his eyes to follow him.
Waited until we reached the inner rest area.
"Your Excellency can understand what I mean, so there is no need to say anything else." Yu Huatang said.
Zhao Yan also continued, "If you want, you can still open a shop even if you go to the capital. I will take care of your parents, so you don't have to worry about it..."
"No, I don't want to go to the capital." She refused coldly.
He knew she wouldn't change her mind, so he paused and said, "I'll be leaving in two days, and I don't know when I'll be back." He pulled a brocade box from his arms and said, "I bought this a long time ago, but I never gave it to you. It's not a very valuable gift, but it suits you very well. Please accept it. I'll think of you often after I'm gone, and I'll come to see you whenever I have time."
Yu Huatang pushed away the brocade box he offered her. He said, "I know what you want to say. It's nothing more than asking me to get married quickly and stop bothering you. But I like you, I love you, and I'm not hindering you in any way. You can't just not allow me to come here."
Yu Huatang turned his head and looked at the door, speechless.
Zhao Yan continued, "One more thing. I really want our child. I was wrong about the contraceptive soup before. If you are really pregnant, give birth to him. I will take care of everything else. I will love him well."
Yu Huatang had a blank expression on his face. "You think too much."
"I actually hope I'm overthinking it. No matter what, I don't want you to get hurt. Promise me not to drink the contraceptive soup."
Yu Huatang turned her head away, unwilling to look at him.
Zhao Yan looked at her for a while, and said reluctantly, "I really have to go, take care of yourself..."
After saying that, he stuffed the brocade box into her hands, held her hands tightly for a while, and turned and left.
Yu Huatang threw the brocade box into the drawer without even looking at it.
When Zhao Yan returned to the courtyard, Wang Zhubu and Anfu were already waiting there.
An Fu said in disappointment, "I thought you could bring Miss Yu here. Now that she's not going, will you stay?"
Zhao Yan said, "What am I going to do here? Wait until ten or eight years later, when my career doesn't go smoothly, and then blame her for holding me back? Or wait until my family says she's a beauty with no sense of shame, clinging to me? I have my own plans and my own career to pursue. Since I want to marry her, I naturally can't let anyone criticize or slander her. I must grow into a towering tree and do my best to protect her."
"Life is too long. I'll eventually wait for her in eight or ten years. I have plenty of time."
Wang Zhubu and Anfu both realized that this would take their entire lives.
In the past, Zhao Yan would feel that his future was hopeless and that Yu Huatang was too cold towards him. But now he doesn’t think so. This is her armor, and he will slowly help her take it off.
In the past, he felt that his life was hopeless, but now he feels that even if there is no way forward, he will create a way out.
At this time, Zhao Yan looked at Wang Zhubu and said, "I have already submitted a petition to the court, stating your achievements. If you wish to stay here, that's fine. If you follow me to the capital, I can't guarantee your promotion."
Wang Zhubu said, "How can my future be bleak if I follow you, sir? I am willing to follow you."
Zhao Yan knew he would say this. "Since you've made up your mind, we'll set off in two days."
…
On the day Zhao Yan left, the people saw him off for a mile or two. Currently, there is more trade than before. Although the profits are not as fast, there is at least hope.
Yu Huatang didn't go. The shop had more orders and she couldn't take care of them.
After another half a month, the weather gradually became warmer, and people basically came out of the afterglow of the New Year and started working hard.
What Yu Huatang didn't expect was that Baili Yunzhou came back one day.
He looked hurried and hadn't changed his clothes, as if he had rushed back. When he arrived at the shop, he took Yu Huatang back to the place where they had been last time. Unlike before, the ice and snow had melted and the branches in the pond could be seen.
Seeing him like this, she asked, "Have you eaten?"
He shook his head and said nothing.
Yu Huatang took him to eat another bowl of noodles. He was probably too hungry, so he ordered another bowl.
Afterwards, the two of them went to a dessert shop to buy some hawthorn water to prevent him from eating too much and having indigestion.
When he returned to the pond, Baili Yunzhou finally felt a little happy. He said, "I heard that Zhao Yan left. I was so happy. If I were here, I would have seen him off and made him so angry that he died."
Yu Huatang smiled and said, "How did you know? But, you've been in Fuzhou for so long, has anyone asked you to marry?"
Baili Yunzhou looked at the water and said with his head down, "Definitely... no, there are some, but I rejected them all. They are not as good looking as you."
Yu Huatang knew that his father must have arranged a blind date for him. He was twenty-five now and couldn't delay any longer.
As if to swear, he spoke again, "Really... Even though I went, I didn't agree. Even if they said it was okay, I could pretend to be a filthy bastard and they wouldn't like it."
"Yun Zhou, don't be like this. If you're always like this, how can you know which woman is truly sincere to you..."
When Baili Yunzhou looked over and was about to say something, she spoke first, "I was with Zhao Yan not long ago."
He was stunned and speechless, as if he couldn't believe it.
She continued, "I used to think I had forgotten it and wouldn't fall into it again, but now I know that I've only grown older, not wiser. I liked him before, and I'm still in love with him now."
