Chapter 66 I don’t want to be away from you when you need me
There was actually nothing wrong with what Chu Yian said.
It would be rude not to pay a visit to the mistress of the house when you are already at her house.
If she visited often in the future, she wouldn't have to see Liu every time.
But last time was the first time she visited, and because she didn't see Liu, no one could say anything to her.
If I don't see her tomorrow, it would be a bit unreasonable.
Sheng Nianyao didn't think much about it. After a moment's thought, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. "Aunt... doesn't seem to have anything she particularly likes. She has a lot of things to worry about on a daily basis, so she doesn't have the time to care about what she likes."
Chu Yian frowned when he heard this. Both Liu and Hua were typical ancient women.
It was clearly their husbands who did something wrong, but they all endured it in silence. They were full of complaints but chose to swallow their grievances and still pretended to be fine in front of outsiders.
She is responsible for managing the inner house, taking care of household affairs, and raising children.
But those men spend their days in debauchery and are completely blind to their efforts and grievances.
Hua Shi was slightly better. Even though Chu Xiuyuan had many faults, he didn't bring back a few more women to make Hua Shi angry.
But Liu, after years of hardship, finally managed to get her cousin to die, and Sheng Hongyu found a young girl who looked very similar to her cousin to marry into the mansion.
Wanwan Leiqing's trick finally made it clear to him.
Seeing that Chu Yian's face was not very good, Sheng Nianyao pursed her lips slightly and tugged at her sleeve: "Sister Chu, what's wrong? What are you thinking about? Is it convenient for you to tell me?"
Chu Yian looked at her, and even though he felt full of sympathy for the women of this era, he also felt helpless about their situation.
But when he saw Sheng Nianyao's pretty and innocent face, he couldn't help but say a few more words.
"Nian Yao, I just feel that it's really too difficult for us women to survive in this world."
Sheng Nianyao was stunned for a moment, her expression changed, and a cold look gradually filled her eyes: "Did Qin Sheng bully you?"
Chu Yian:?
What the hell?
Chu Yian was puzzled: "Qin Sheng treats me very well, why do you say that?"
After hearing what Chu Yian said, Sheng Nian Yao stared at her for a few seconds. Only after confirming that she was not lying for the sake of face did she feel relieved.
Sheng Nianyao lowered her eyelashes: "Isn't it because Sister Chu suddenly sighed that I feel a little worried?"
As she spoke, she raised her head and tightly grasped Chu Yian's hand, saying, "Sister Chu, I don't know what kind of person General Qin is, but you are right. It is too difficult for us women to survive in this world."
"General Qin is like that again..."
After all, he is Chu Yian's husband, so Sheng Nianyao didn't dare to say too much and cause Chu Yian's dissatisfaction.
But he was also worried that Chu Yian would be wronged in the Duke's Mansion for various reasons.
No matter what she said, she was in a dilemma. She could only grit her teeth and say, "Sister Chu, General Qin may be a good person, but if you marry him, you will face a lot of criticism."
"You... I don't know how to tell you this, but Sister Chu is my only friend in Shengjing. I hope you can live happily every day in the future."
"If, if you have any difficulties, Sister Chu, you can tell me. I don't have anything else, but I have money."
"I'll help my sister vent her anger no matter how much money she spends."
Sheng Nianyao felt that she was despicable and shameless. Qin Sheng was willing to take Chu Yian to a brothel and even ordered so many girls for her to make her happy.
This shows that Qin Sheng is still good to Chu Yian, at least he doesn’t have the bad habits of other men.
But one person's kindness to another person rarely lasts forever. If Qin Sheng gets tired of Chu Yian one day, who knows if he will make her suffer humiliation and torture like other men in the world?
Sheng Nianyao admitted that what she said might be an attempt to sow discord, but she still said it.
She would rather tell Chu Yian in advance and make him unhappy, rather than wait until Chu Yian is really wronged and has no one to talk to and can only suffer on his own.
Sheng Nianyao could see that Chu Yian was a very simple woman. Her eyes were bright when she looked at everything, and she could show her kindness to the greatest extent even to strangers.
If not for this, she would probably still be trapped in the brothel, or even have died in some corner of the brothel.
After Sheng Nianyao finished speaking, she looked at Chu Yian's face cautiously, fearing that Chu Yian would think that she was a villain who was trying to sow discord and would distance himself from her from then on.
But Chu Yian's eyes lit up when he heard what she said.
I didn't pay attention to the real meaning of her words at all, I just heard "I have money" and "I will give you money".
Chu Yian was deeply moved. He grabbed Sheng Nianyao's hand and held it tightly, tears of emotion flashing in his eyes: "Nianyao, you are really... No one has ever been so nice to me, woooo~"
I say I have money, I close my mouth and I want to spend money on you, and then I say don’t worry about the money, I have it.
Who can not love a girl like this?
Sheng Nianyao is much more generous than Hua Chen. At this moment, Hua Chen, Chu Yian's favorite male lover, has seen his status in Chu Yian's heart plummet.
Although Hua Chen was willing to spend money on Chu Yian, he mostly had his own purposes for spending money.
As for the first two times, the first time was to leave a deep impression on her and distinguish her from other male favorites.
He must have investigated carefully and found out that she loves money, so he catered to her preferences.
The second time, Hua Chen gave her money and took her to see so many handsome men. Wasn’t that also a way for him to win her heart?
Let her experience the good of a man first, then it will be easier to make a move, right? Also, to make her less wary of him.
Although Chu Yian accepted everything, it didn't mean that she really didn't know what Hua Chen was thinking.
Although she is not smart, she is very cautious in protecting herself, and no one can deceive her feelings.
Hua Chen has his own calculations when spending money on Chu Yian, but Sheng Nianyao doesn't.
She really just treated her as a good sister and best friend.
Aren’t good girlfriends willing to spend money on each other?
But then again, Sheng Nian Yao had just given her a set of valuable ruby head ornaments. It had been two days, and Chu Yian still hadn't thought of what gift to give in return.
I'm going to the Sheng family tomorrow, so I have to return this gift.
Sheng Nianyao was very surprised that Chu Yian did not make random guesses, but after listening carefully to Chu Yian's words, she began to feel distressed and thought that it had not been easy for her over the years.
Sheng Nianyao showed a trace of confusion on her face. After struggling for a while, she reached out and took off the jade pendant hanging around her neck.
The next second, he placed the snow-white jade pendant into Chu Yian's hand.
Holding the warm jade pendant, Chu Yian was stunned, a little puzzled: "Why did you give me the jade pendant?"
Could it be that this jade pendant is also some valuable treasure? So he gave it to her?
How can this be possible?
Sheng Nianyao had already given her a set of headwear worth more than two thousand taels. No matter how thick-skinned Chu Yian was, it would not be easy for him to keep accepting other people's things.
Although she had done Sheng Nianyao a favor, Sheng Nianyao had already given her a lot of money. In Chu Yian's opinion, it was more than enough to repay her kindness.
Don't be too greedy, it's easy to die.
Chu Yian was about to return the jade pendant but was stopped by Sheng Nianyao.
"Sister Chu, this jade pendant was left to me by my parents. It is very important to me."
Sheng Nianyao's parents are no longer alive. This is the memory her parents left her, so Chu Yian cannot accept it.
Sheng Nianyao didn't give her a chance to refuse, and chuckled, "You take it. Sister Chu is also very important to me."
"I don't want Sister Chu to need me in the future and I won't be able to rush to her side. That jade pendant...at least it can accompany you."
