Chapter 275 Breaking the Window Paper
"Those rumors outside are just rumors and are not true." He Yanxiu was afraid that Su Yujin would not believe him, so he added another sentence.
"If I think about it carefully, this rumor is probably related to my eldest cousin's wife who has been stirring up trouble. Although my eldest cousin's wife has received the due punishment, these rumors cannot be eliminated and will follow me for the rest of my life."
Su Yujin tilted her head.
There are the most disputes in the wealthy families. There are constant disputes between the different branches and between legitimate and illegitimate children. Many people will do anything to slander and trip up each other.
I guess the rumor about He Yanxiu's homosexuality originated from this?
"Why hasn't the Second Master gotten married yet?" Su Yujin asked.
No wind, no waves.
He Yanxiu was still unmarried at an advanced age, so when rumors about his homosexuality started spreading, people naturally believed them.
"I have had my own ideas since I was young. I was deeply influenced by my father and mother, so I wanted to find someone who shared the same ideas with me. But I never met one, so I kept putting it off."
He Yanxiu answered truthfully, "Fortunately, my father and mother have always been very indulgent to me and let me go. My grandmother was quite worried, but seeing that I insisted, she didn't say anything more."
"I see." Su Yujin nodded slightly.
He is spoiled by the whole family, so he does whatever he wants.
But it is also a great thing to be spoiled and pampered by the whole family.
Su Yujin sighed, but raised her eyebrows, "Then the Second Master redeemed me from Wanhua Tower because he was worried that Madam He would hear those absurd rumors and become worried, so he resorted to this desperate measure?"
We need to let Madam He know that he is also a normal man, but a lustful one.
He Yanxiu didn't say anything, just nodded as an acknowledgement.
It’s true.
Su Yujin raised her eyebrows and then lowered them, looking as if she had suddenly realized something.
I had guessed at the beginning that the Second Master redeemed her, settled her in Qinghe, and was not at all close to her. He must have had other purposes.
At first, after hearing some rumors and considering He Yanxiu's behavior at the time, I thought he was a homosexual and that he kept her as a concubine to cover up the truth about his homosexuality.
Now it seems that it is just to prove that he is a normal man.
Rumors are like knives, often killing people without their being noticed.
If you think about it carefully, it's not easy for the Second Master...
Su Yujin felt deeply moved, and for a moment, her expression was a little complicated.
He Yanxiu saw that she looked unhappy, and suddenly panicked, and hurriedly explained, "I thought that after you stayed in Qinghe for a few years, I would return your indenture to you, and you would be free again, and no longer be bound by your identity."
"At the beginning, it was also a helpless move..."
It was not intentional to take advantage of an innocent woman.
"No matter what the Second Master's reasons were, the fact that he redeemed me from Wanhua Tower was a life-saving favor to me."
Su Yujin said, "I am grateful to Second Master from the bottom of my heart."
Otherwise, the original owner might have completely fallen into prostitution, or actually become someone else's mistress or concubine. No matter what the situation was, the ending would not be good.
And who knows, maybe she doesn't have the chance to travel through time and be reborn as a human being by some strange coincidence.
What's more, the Second Master is a kind and generous person. Although she can make money, without the Second Master's strong support, she probably wouldn't be able to make money so smoothly and with peace of mind.
Su Yujin was truly grateful to He Yanxiu.
The kind that comes from the heart.
Hearing Su Yujin say this, He Yanxiu felt relieved and relieved.
He had imagined the scene of talking to Su Yujin about this matter countless times, and even prepared a basket of words to respond to Su Yujin's various questions.
But what he didn't expect was that Su Yujin would believe and accept what he said so easily.
The feeling of being trusted is always the best.
What’s more, he is trusted by the person he likes.
He Yanxiu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, and even his tone became lighter, "I can't say I'm grateful. If I really have to say the word gratitude, I should be grateful to you."
"Thank me?" Su Yujin was stunned.
"Yes." He Yanxiu nodded, "Thank you for curing my loss of taste, thank you for all your help when I was in Hedong Prefecture, thank you for your hard work in treating the epidemic during the disaster relief, and even more thank you..."
He Yanxiu paused and took a deep breath.
He had just broken through one layer of window paper, and now he was about to break through the second layer, so he was a little nervous.
But after the first layer of window paper was broken, it achieved excellent results. He became a little greedy and wanted to get the best answer.
"Second Master." Su Yujin interrupted He Yanxiu, "Doing all this is my duty as a doctor, and it is also a way to repay Second Master for being so kind to me. As Second Master said just now, I can't really say I'm grateful."
After Su Yujin finished speaking, she lowered her head and scooped a wonton into her mouth. "This wonton tastes really good. I'm afraid this bowl is not enough."
"There's more prepared in the small kitchen. I'll ask them to bring another bowl over." Seeing this, He Yanxiu hurriedly ordered someone to prepare it.
Then he gathered his emotions and prepared to continue speaking.
"Give me another bowl of noodles." Su Yujin put down the clean bowl of wontons, took another bite of the shredded chicken noodle soup, and added.
"Add another bowl of noodles." He Yanxiu ordered again.
After the subordinates took the order and left, He Yanxiu took a deep breath again, "Actually..."
"Second Master, you eat too." Su Yujin put some pickles into He Yanxiu's bowl.
"Hmm..." He Yanxiu lowered his head.
The first attack is of great strength, the second is weaker, and the third is exhausted. This applies to marching and fighting, and also applies at this time.
He Yanxiu, who was interrupted repeatedly, was like a deflated Cuju. He swallowed the half-sentenced "Thank you for coming to me" that he had never said out loud.
Sure enough, not everything goes so smoothly.
Especially things like emotions.
He Yanxiu sighed.
He sighed very softly and subtly.
Lightly, but with a sense of unwillingness and resentment.
Su Yujin pursed her lips and blinked her eyes. She looked at He Yanxiu, who was looking a little dejected at the moment, and said quietly, "If Second Master doesn't eat it, the pigeon soup will get cold."
"Yeah." He Yanxiu came back to his senses, picked up the bowl, and drank in small sips.
"Second Master seems to be in a bad mood. How about I tell him a joke?" Su Yujin tilted his head.
"Okay." He Yanxiu nodded.
"Once upon a time, there was a blind man who went to a grocery store every day to buy things. Because he couldn't see clearly what was sold in the grocery store, he asked the store owner every day if he had bamboo baskets for sale."
"The shopkeeper always told him that there were bamboo baskets and gave them to him, but the blind man wanted to buy a different size of bamboo basket every time, and he couldn't figure out the size of the bamboo basket. Every time he had to ask the shopkeeper for a long time to make sure that the bamboo basket was what he wanted."
Tomorrow the beast will return to the cage, I hope everything goes well...
