Chapter 654 I don’t blame you
The moon is full and the breeze is blowing gently.
Just when Liang Qin was wondering why her period had not come yet, Wei Changtian had already walked to the side courtyard where Yang Liushi lived.
Looking at the candlelight in the house, he stood outside the yard for a while, then he took a deep breath and started walking again.
“Boom boom boom.”
Walk across the yard and knock on the door.
The sound of flipping pages inside the door stopped abruptly, and soon that all-too-familiar voice was heard.
"Xiaoyue, what's wrong?"
It was obvious that Yang Liushi treated him as a servant.
"Ahem, it's me."
Wei Changtian coughed dryly and heard the sound of cabinets opening and closing in the house. Soon the door in front of him was slowly opened.
"Sir."
Yang Liushi stood inside the door, her long hair draped behind her, the warm yellow candlelight shining softly over her shoulders.
She stepped aside to let Wei Changtian into the house and asked with a smile:
"Aren't you going to negotiate with Yan Huaiqing tomorrow? Why are you here so late?"
"You still know that I'm going to negotiate tomorrow."
Wei Changtian deliberately joked: "Then why haven't you shown any concern these days?"
"I do want to care about you, but I can't find you."
Yang Liushi was not annoyed. She walked to the table with a smile and poured water for Wei Changtian: "Besides, with Master Chu here, I'm sure there won't be any problems in this peace talk."
"So you just stay in your room and read books all day?"
Pursing his lips, Wei Changtian picked up an ancient book on the table.
This book is obviously very old. The title on the cover has long been blurred and unrecognizable, and the content is not very complete.
Wei Changtian casually flipped through a few pages. Although it was quite difficult to read, he could tell that this was not a book on military strategy, but an ancient medical book.
"Medical book? Why are you reading this book?"
After glancing at the other books on the table and finding that they were all medical books, Wei Changtian couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Why? You want to study medicine?"
"Goose, goose, goose, I am just in a spur of the moment."
Yang Liushi took the ancient book with a smile, closed it, and carefully put it together: "I'm free anyway, so I'll find something to do to kill time."
"real?"
Wei Changtian frowned, feeling that Yang Liushi was intentionally hiding something.
"If you really want to study medicine, just study it. There's no need to hide it."
"Besides, it's not the right way for you to read these medical books by yourself. Why don't I find a doctor with superb medical skills in Liangzhou to teach you?"
“No need.”
Yang Liushi shook her head and interrupted seriously, "Sir, I am just taking a look."
“.”
Looking at Yang Liushi, Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment.
Of course he remembered why he came here tonight, so he didn't ask about the medical book anymore. He just walked slowly to the table, sat down, and turned the topic to business.
"Liu Shi."
"I have something I want to discuss with you."
“.”
The candle flame flickered slightly, and the room suddenly fell into silence.
Wei Changtian was still racking his brains to organize his words, trying to figure out what to say best.
But Yang Liushi reacted quickly and shook her head gently.
"Sir, you don't have to say it. I understand everything."
"This matter is not the fault of my great grandfather, and even less of yours."
"If you want to blame someone, just blame myself for being a demon."
"I have thought it through a long time ago. If it weren't for you, I would have died when Xiao Feng captured me in Yanyun Mountain. How could I be alive today?"
"So the only thing I want in this life is to be with you forever."
"As for the rest, compared to not being able to bear you a child, I don't want to see you get upset with your close ones because of me and this child, or even be despised by the world."
"My lord, I am just a little demon in the Ten Thousand Mountains. It is because of you that I have seen the prosperity of this world and understood what love is."
"The ancients said that husband and wife should support each other and share weal and woe."
"You have done so much for me, even if I can't help you, at least I can do my best not to hinder you."
"Sir, don't forget that you still have sisters Wan'er, Qin'er, and Yao'er."
"If one day I really give birth to your child, but the child cannot be named Wei, what will they think then?"
"Sir, I don't want to be at a loss as to how to face them one day, I don't want to be secretly directed by the servants at home one day, and I don't want to be forced to leave you one day."
"For this, I don't have anything to give up."
Having said this, Yang Liushi paused.
The moon was full and bright, and the silver light flowed on her and also on Wei Changtian.
Yang Liushi turned her head to look at the full moon outside the window and said softly, "People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, the moon waxes and wanes, it is impossible to have everything in life."
"Sir, I finally understand this poem now."
"There is no such thing as a full moon every night, and there is no such thing as a person who is satisfied with everything."
"So, I am already content."
"real."
“.”
The sad wind comes from the end of the sky, and the full moon shines brightly.
Under the shadow of the bright river, you can still see a few sparse stars.
Looking at Yang Liushi blankly and listening to her words, Wei Changtian didn't know what to say to her for a moment.
Yang Liushi has said everything that should be said and can be said.
And since she could say this so calmly, it meant that she must have thought about it for a long time.
These words even sounded more like he was advising himself not to feel too guilty. You still have Xu Qingwan, Liang Qin, and Lu Jingyao, and maybe you will have other wives and concubines in the future.
They can all give birth to your offspring, so it doesn't matter whether I can do that or not.
Furthermore, if we really have a child in the future, the Wei family’s attitude towards the child will likely expose my identity to more people, and then perhaps force me to leave you.
I don't want to leave you, nor do I want to endure the strange looks of the world, so I would rather not have this child.
This is my own choice and it has nothing to do with you.
Now, I am already very content. It is not known whether Yang Liushi is really "content", but she did say so, and her purpose must be to dispel Wei Changtian's guilt.
For this reason, she even recited the line "People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions; the moon has its phases of waxing and waning," using Wei Changtian's own poem to reassure him.
However , as Yang Liu's poem said, even if she could not give birth to a child for Wei Changtian, it would not affect the latter's ability to be a father.
But to borrow the words Comrade Xiao Xu once said to Wei Changtian, "I only have you", this kind of comfort is undoubtedly based on the premise of "sacrificing" oneself.
After all, for Yang Liushi, she only has Wei Changtian.
And this means that she will never be a mother again.
It is true that people have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and the moon waxes and wanes.
But we should know that the moon is full and round every month. How can the shortcomings of a life be compared to the moon?
Wei Changtian naturally understood all this, so he felt very uncomfortable at the moment.
What's more, he didn't come here today to persuade Yang Liushi to "see the big picture", but just wanted to discuss with the latter how to make their future children accepted by the Wei family.
Therefore, after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly wanted to say something.
However, before he could finish his words, Yang Liushi suddenly lowered her head and whispered, "Sir, you have important things to do tomorrow, so you should go to bed early tonight."
"I am a little tired, so I won't see you off."
"No, Liu Shi, I actually..."
"Sir."
"Go back."
