Chapter 835 Recovering Memory
"hehe……"
Jiang Wan smiled coldly, this is how human nature is.
Perhaps he heard the sarcasm in her tone, Jiang Shaowen glanced apologetically at Tao Niang who was waiting for him outside the house.
"Actually, Tao Niang and I can't be considered a real couple."
"What?!!"
This time the people who were surprised turned out to be Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan, and they obviously didn't believe it.
After all, from the interactions between them before, they were clearly a couple.
Jiang Shaowen smiled bitterly, "After being sent to Yangzhou City, I almost lost my freedom.
She didn't remember who she was and was not allowed to move around freely. She was locked in a small courtyard behind the embroidery shop every day.
Actually, the fire started because I wanted to escape, and I didn't expect to burn down the embroidery shop.
Tao Niang found out, and she couldn't bear to see me getting thinner and thinner, so she helped me.
Later, she was nearly burned by the pillar of fire, and I couldn’t bear to save her.”
Jiang Shaowen recounted the truth of what happened, "We escaped from the embroidery shop.
But we soon realized that without the embroidery shop we didn’t know what to do, and we were soon found by the people in the shop.
I didn't want to go back to those dark days, so Tao Niang offered to cooperate with me. As long as she married me, her master would not make things difficult for her. "
"So you guys are having a fake marriage?"
When Jiang Wan thought of the love in Tao Niang's eyes, she suddenly felt that her father was a bit of a scumbag.
"Yes, we agreed that we would divorce as soon as I was free."
Jiang Shaowen still had some feelings for Tao Niang, and he said, "We should have divorced after her master passed away.
It just so happened that Tao Niang picked up Ping An at that time, and Ping An looked a bit like me, so she was obsessed with keeping him."
"It's you she wants to keep."
Jiang Wan let out a long sigh. Perhaps her father himself didn't know that he had feelings for Tao Niang.
The emotions in the eyes cannot be faked.
"Later, we took care of Ping An together and tacitly did not mention the matter of divorce."
Jiang Shaowen was afraid that Jiang Wan would be angry, so he said hurriedly, "Ping An is really not my child.
That fire also made me lose my fertility.”
"Um."
Jiang Wan could see that he was not lying, and because of this, she suddenly didn't know how to face Tao Niang.
She was also a poor girl, guarding a man who might not love her at all.
"Wanwan, I want to go back to Kyoto!"
Jiang Shaowen suddenly said, "Tell me where your mother is buried. I want to go see her!"
The past ten years seemed like a dream, and when Jiang Shaowen woke up, he found that the person he loved most was no longer there.
He is going crazy!
"You are not in good health right now."
Jiang Wan told the truth, "Even if we hurry, we won't be able to reach Kyoto."
"Your mother..."
Jiang Shaowen was in great pain, "I miss your mother so much, these past ten years seem like a dream.
Wanwan, is there anyone still alive in the Jiang family? "
"Our lineage is gone."
Jiang Wan was very calm when talking about the Jiang family, even with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
Jiang Shaowen guessed that she might have only talked about their affairs, and that the Jiang family must have hurt her.
"I'm sorry, Wanwan."
"I'm tired."
Jiang Wan didn't want to continue talking to Jiang Shaowen. Song Jiuyuan understood her and said gently:
"Wanwan, go and rest first. I'll talk to him about the rest."
"good."
Jiang Wan walked out of the house. Tao Niang was waiting outside. She looked up at Jiang Wan in confusion.
"Miss Jiang, your father... won't go back with me, right?"
"I have no idea."
Jiang Wan was actually not a cold-hearted person, but for a moment he didn't know how to face a weak girl like Tao Niang.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know he had a family in Kyoto."
Tao Niang sniffed, "I was too stupid to think of these, and I didn't expect that he had a daughter as old as you."
"When I first saw you yesterday, I really felt sorry for my mother."
Jiang Wan spoke her mind, "But today, I see you again.
I also know the process of you looking at each other. At that time, he had no memory and you didn’t know his past.
There is no right or wrong, and besides, my mother should have been gone when you got married."
After all, not long after her father was replaced, her mother knew the truth and was dealt with by Jiang Shaowu.
Jiang Wan suddenly felt a little sad. She was sad that after such a beautiful and clear-minded woman passed away, even the love that she thought was the most loyal was no longer pure.
"I……"
Tao Niang glanced sadly into the room, "Can I go in and see him again?"
"I'm not going to get involved with you two."
Jiang Wan sighed softly, making Tao Niang panic, "Does your father... mind my existence?"
She was very sad because she was the one who forced him to be together.
Now that he thought of the woman he loved in the past, it seemed reasonable for him to want to get rid of her.
"You can ask her."
Jiang Wan turned and went to the next room. When Mu Xiang saw her come in, she hurried forward to greet her.
"Master, let me massage your shoulders."
"Don't be funny, how are you doing with your homework?"
Jiang Wan's words made Mu Xiang stand there in a daze, like a rooster with its neck strangled.
"Master, I just wanted to comfort you."
"I don't need comfort, go back to the house."
Jiang Wan waved her hands. She wanted to laugh at those negative emotions by herself.
The greatest decency an adult can have is not to pass on negative emotions to others.
"Then Master, please test me."
Muxiang could see that Jiang Wan was not in a good mood, so she deliberately pestered Jiang Wan to test her.
Jiang Wan knew that she was trying to divert her attention. She was touched and did not refuse.
Half an hour passed as the master and disciple asked and answered questions. Jiang Wan was surprised to find that her mood had indeed improved a lot.
"Okay, I'm almost done. Please review the key points I mentioned."
"good."
Muxiang went back to her room happily holding the notebook. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Song Jiuyuan knocking on it.
He closed the door and walked over, "Wanwan, your father... wants to go back to Kyoto."
"So determined?"
Jiang Wan was a little surprised, as she thought he would be concerned about Tao Niang.
"yes."
Song Jiuyuan admitted that he was a little selfish, and he told Jiang Shaowen everything that Wanwan had experienced over the years.
The Jiang family is not without people. Some of the family members who have not participated in the event still exist in Kyoto.
If Jiang Shaowen returned to Beijing, the new emperor would definitely feel sorry for him and might even reinstate him.
Jiang Shaowen wanted to give Jiang Wan a strong mother-in-law.
"His body couldn't take it."
Jiang Wan frowned slightly, "Why is this person so unwilling to listen to advice?"
"He said...he was going to make one last effort."
Song Jiuyuan sighed, "If he doesn't make it, I hope you can bury him and your mother together."
"He chose my mother so firmly, what about Tao Niang?"
Jiang Wan thought of Tao Niang with tears in her eyes. She was also an innocent woman who had taken care of her father for so long.
