Chapter 518: The sky is falling and the underworld is falling, we will never meet again
.
The scene changes.
The familiar courtyard is still in sight.
With a creak, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and
Xiao Huaiyan came over with wine, walking with the wind, as if there was some happy event.
"Wei Zhao!" As
soon as the person entered the yard, he shouted loudly.
"Shen Zhiyi broke off the engagement."
"I said that Chu Liulang is not a good guy, how can he be a good match? I'm afraid he is blind. He left Shen Zhiyi and got together with the delicate and pretentious Zhou Yurou."
Inside the house, Yu Tingwan heard the movement and stopped boiling medicine.
She looked at Wei Zhao in confusion and lowered her voice.
"My husband mentioned to me that County Magistrate Xiao couldn't get the girl he liked, but he secretly didn't allow other bad guys to succeed, so he did something shameful in private."
"Yes."
Even though Chu Liulang and Zhou Yurou had been flirting with each other for a long time.
Wei Zhao was reading a book.
He nodded when he heard it. "The Chu family was able to break off the engagement with the Shen family smoothly. The elders of the Chu and Zhou families were happy to see it happen and quickly turned around to
arrange an engagement for the younger generation. Xiao Huaiyan was one of them." Yu Tingwan didn't understand. "Why did County Magistrate Xiao pretend that he didn't know about this?"
Wei Zhao: "I'm used to hiding my shortcomings."
Of course, the bigger reason might be...
"He wants to paralyze himself. Even if there is no outside intervention, the Shen family girl and Chu Liulang can't be together. There is no fate."
Yu Tingwan: "Then..."
Wei Zhao: "Don't expose him."
Yu Tingwan understood.
This is really a deep brotherly love.
"What's going on?"
Xiao Huaiyan walked in directly.
"I thought there was no one in the room and ignored you when I talked to you?"
"Come here, have a drink with me."
Wei Zhao, who was full of brotherly love, leaned back, his posture was casual, and he didn't care.
"Save it for later."
Xiao Huaiyan:?
What do you mean?
Wei Zhao: "It's just a breakup, why are you so excited? Who can guarantee that Qi Ming'er won't have Zhang Liulang or Wang Liulang tomorrow?"
"The daughter of the Shen family is going to get married anyway. If it doesn't work out this time, maybe it will work out next time. You don't have a deep connection with her, so maybe she won't send you an invitation. But the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion is a must."
Wei Zhao thought for him: "You don't have to go, lest you get sad. It's obvious that you can't drink the wedding wine."
So.
"You'd better keep the wine in your hand and get drunk later."
These words were all heart-piercing.
Xiao Huaiyan's face turned bad.
But he had to admit that what Wei Zhao said was right.
"Sister-in-law!"
Yu Tingwan was at a loss: "Ah?"
"He has a mean mouth, can you stand it?"
Xiao Huaiyan was angry: "I don't know how you can bear to live with him."
Yu Tingwan blinked her eyes.
She told the truth.
"But... he doesn't treat me like this."
Xiao Huaiyan: ...
Yu Tingwan: "He is still very docile."
The docile Wei Zhao smiled.
Xiao Huaiyan: ???
Yu Tingwan lowered his eyes and said softly, "If you really care about the girl from the Shen family, you might as well strive to become the next Xiao Liulang, so that you won't have to complain in the future."
"Others can do it, why can't you?"
Xiao Huaiyan fell silent: "I don't have a good reputation."
"Reputation is false. What matters is whether you can be reliable. When a woman marries, she doesn't marry for reputation."
"But I..."
Yu Tingwan interrupted.
"Sometimes, you can't have too many concerns."
"Too many concerns will cause more stumbling blocks, and then... there will be more regrets."
"Xiao County Magistrate."
Yu Tingwan said to him.
"You've put the cart before the horse. What you should consider now is whether you can bear the consequences. Whether it succeeds or not is another matter. Once she marries, there will be no turning back."
She said.
"How can a person have a chance to start over again?"
Lan Garden.
Lotus Pond.
The girl's relaxed expression gradually turned into solemnity.
She saw herself packing her bags to see Wei Zhao off with many instructions.
Her roots are in Ze County.
Even if Wei Zhao mentioned it, maybe there is a way out for her life experience.
But Yu Tingwan was not like she was in this life. She had to go to Shangjing to find out the truth about the fire at the Yu family. She had to see how much the so-called Gu family loved their daughter.
In the Hu family, she has always learned to obey.
Hu Dazhu was away from home all year round, and she suffered every day, making a living under the nose of the sarcastic Wang.
She couldn't bear it anymore and told Hu Yaozu about his touching her.
Hu Yaozu refused to admit it.
Wang called her a foxy woman and said she must have seduced her.
Hu Dazhu said that Hu Yaozu was a scholar and had to be decent and could not delay his official career. Whether it was true or not, he begged her not to make trouble.
Fearing that the Hu family would not tolerate her, Yu Tingwan could only be very obedient.
She stopped making trouble.
She continued to burn firewood and cook at the Hu family, being very cautious.
But she was still sold.
She begged many people, tried to escape, tried to resist, but nothing worked. Her power was as small as dust, she was just an ant that could be crushed to death by anyone, and in the end she was forcefully stuffed into the sedan chair like a joke.
What does the Gu family have to do with her?
She had long been smoothed over.
She would choose to avoid everything.
She had already exhausted all her courage by agreeing to be a real couple with Wei Zhao.
She didn't even dare to imagine the future, she just wanted to live a good life in the present, and also wanted to leave a strong mark in Wei Zhao's heart.
It was as if... this world was not lived in vain.
At the same time, she was also despicable.
She looked no different from a normal person, but she was exhausted physically and mentally, and no longer dared to investigate the fire at the Yu family.
She wanted to rely on Wei Zhao.
She shamelessly wanted to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor.
Did Wei Zhao know?
Yes.
Therefore, he settled her down before returning to the capital.
But when she packed for Wei Zhao, Yu Tingwan felt like something was missing from her heart. She
was confused but not wrong.
And...
a strong reluctance and fear.
She turned around and hugged Wei Zhao tightly.
She even started to make a fuss.
"I don't want to check anymore."
"My parents are dead. Can they come back alive after checking?"
She was too emotional.
Her voice was choked. She
knew that Wei Zhao also had hatred and needed to be avenged.
But she made a fuss.
"I don't want you to leave."
Wei Zhao was surprised.
Yesterday, the girl was sensible and said to him gently.
——"Just do your thing and take care of your safety. I'm here, waiting for you to come back."
Wei Zhao said at that time that she had no conscience, and she didn't feel reluctant and didn't care about him enough.
But now seeing her crying, he felt that it would be better to have no conscience. Worrying too much about someone will make you worried and distressed every day.
"I'm not not coming back."
Wei Zhao kissed her forehead and sucked away the tears in the girl's eyes.
"Thanks to you, I cherish my life more than anyone else."
He left anyway.
They were supposed to leave early the next morning, but Wei Zhao didn't let Yu Tingwan see him off, fearing that she would cry again and not wanting her to face the separation.
That night, after Yu Tingwan fell asleep, he lit some calming incense and sat in front of the bed like an old monk in meditation for a long time. When she fell asleep, he got up and paused for a moment before stepping out of the room. He strode away with a determined heart.
But who would have thought
that this farewell would be forever, forever, never to be seen again.
