Chapter 117 Are you happy to be with Qin Sheng?
Liu was a little stunned, and then her eyes felt a little sore.
When she came to Duke Qin's Mansion, she was always worried that Chu Yian would be disappointed in her and think that she was ungrateful, but she didn't expect Chu Yian to see her this way.
Yi An is not a person with a bad temper. On the contrary, she has a good personality and rarely conflicts with others.
But for her, he could put aside his status and vent her anger.
In her entire life, Liu had never been protected like this by anyone, not even once. Every time something happened, someone would ask her to be patient.
The mother is, the maid is, and even the children are.
They thought that as long as she endured it, the family would be peaceful and there would be no trouble, but they never thought about whether she was wronged or sad.
They only thought about themselves. If they could remain unaffected, what would it matter if she suffered a great injustice?
If you insist on making a fuss, making everyone restless, you will still be the one being blamed in the end.
This was the first time that someone had protected her so recklessly. How could Liu not be moved?
But she is also the type of person who doesn't like conflicts with others, and tolerance seems to have become a habit and instinct.
Not only her, but the servants around her have also become accustomed to her tolerance, accustomed to being bullied by a concubine, and accustomed to Sheng Hongyu's indifference towards her.
Liu's voice was choked with sobs: "Yi An, you don't have to call me Madam Sheng. It seems so strange."
Chu Yian took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, her eyes so gentle that tears could drip out: "Then can I call you Auntie?"
Liu nodded, her voice muffled: "Okay, very good, it sounds closer."
Chu Yian smiled, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "Aunt, why are you still crying? When that ignorant concubine dies, there will be one less person disturbing your peace. You should be happy."
All kinds of emotions came to Liu's mind, so complicated that she didn't know what to say to express her feelings.
She also felt that it was really inappropriate for her, an elder, to cry like this in front of Chu Yian, a junior.
Chu Yian took back the handkerchief and pulled her to sit down.
Sheng Nianyao also sat down next to Chu Yian. She hadn't seen her for two days, and she wondered if Sister Chu missed her.
Chu Yian said no, his heart was completely focused on Liu, and he decided to tell her some heartfelt words.
"Aunt, as women, we need to be tolerant in many aspects when we get married. If we are wrong, it is only right to be criticized. We should correct our mistakes and not make the same mistake again next time."
"But it's not our fault. We don't need to be so tolerant."
"Life is so short, and we never know when it will end. There are really not many days left for us to live a carefree life."
"You really shouldn't wait until you're old and dying to regret having lived such a pathetic life. When you have nothing to do, you should think more about yourself."
"You always care about your family and your children. Auntie has done a great job in this regard."
"But I still want to tell you, Auntie, you are also a human being. We are not born to be someone's wife or someone's mother. We must first be ourselves."
"Be yourself first, and then adapt to other identities based on this foundation."
Hearing her words, Liu looked up in surprise, and stood there in a daze as if she had been hit by something.
Chu Yian's words echoed in her heart, and each word carried a thousand-pound weight, making her heart tremble, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in her that she didn't know how to describe.
It was as if something was rushing upwards from the small, and she felt her heartbeat suddenly speed up and become more and more out of control.
For so many years, she has suffered all kinds of grievances and tolerated everything for the sake of her family and her children, but what has she got in return?
They are getting worse.
Did she do something wrong?
No, she did nothing wrong. She took care of her husband and children, was virtuous and kind, and was no worse than other women. But they were still not satisfied.
She no longer knew what to do to satisfy everyone.
But at this moment, Chu Yian's words reached her ears, giving her a wake-up call.
Liu couldn't help but ask herself, did she do anything wrong?
Yes, she was wrong.
Maybe she had chosen the wrong approach from the beginning, she shouldn't have been so accommodating to them.
If she had made everyone restless the first time, perhaps there wouldn't have been so many problems later, and she wouldn't have had to live so aggrievedly.
But since ancient times, everyone has said that women should take care of their husbands and children, and manage the inner house. Even if their husbands make big mistakes, they should be tolerant and persuade their husbands to return to the right path.
But I tried to persuade him, but it was no use.
Is this her fault? Is she useless? Or did she choose the wrong path?
Liu didn’t know, but she felt that what Chu Yian said made sense.
A person's life is long. As they grow older, everyone will gradually be given different identities and assume different responsibilities.
But before we become anything else, we are first ourselves.
If you are not happy with yourself and don’t understand your own life, how can you adapt to other identities and do them well?
Liu looked at Chu Yian, her eyes gradually became hotter, and her heart seemed to be opened up and become clear in an instant.
The girl looks small, with bright eyes, and she looks very young no matter how you look at her.
But if such a young girl can see through it, how can she, who has lived for decades, not see through it?
Liu's tears flowed again.
Chu Yian was startled, not knowing what he had said wrong to make her cry, and quickly took out his handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Chu Yian blamed herself a little: "Auntie, did I say something wrong?"
Liu took the handkerchief from her hand and shook her head, her voice choking as she said, "No, no, I, I'm just a little excited."
Chu Yian:?
Liu let out a breath and tried to calm down. After she calmed down, she looked at Chu Yian and said, "Yian, can I ask you a question? It may be a little presumptuous."
Chu Yian smiled, his eyes softened again: "Aunt, just ask."
Liu pursed her lips and looked around. There were only her, Chu Yian and Sheng Nian Yao here. The servants were far away and could not hear their conversation.
She then looked at Chu Yian again, considered her words, observed Chu Yian's expression, and asked carefully: "You, and General Qin..."
"Yi An, General Qin is a decent man, but he does some ridiculous things. If you marry him, you will also face a lot of criticism. Do you really not care what others say?"
"Are you happy to be with the young general?"
After all, Qin Sheng has a bad reputation outside. Under normal circumstances, Liu would never ask such a rude question.
After all, if this happened to an ordinary woman, she would have hanged herself with a rope long ago.
But after listening to Chu Yian's words today, Liu felt that she was not an ordinary woman. Her perspective on things seemed to be different from that of ordinary people, but it could touch a woman's heart more.
Being with Sheng Hongyu already made her very unhappy. If Chu Yian couldn't get over it and kept thinking about Qin Sheng and other men, her situation would only be more difficult than hers.
But every time she saw Chu Yian, her face was full of smiles.
The last time Gong Lu insulted Qin Sheng, Chu Yian was so furious that he beat her in public. Liu really wanted to know what Chu Yian thought of Qin Sheng.
She wanted to hear what Chu Yian was really thinking and wanted to know what she was really thinking.
Maybe from her words, she can find a new way to live?
