He found a set of Du Yaoyao's plain white pajamas from the closet and lay down on the bed with the clothes on.
She whispered, "Yaoyao, don't be angry. I feel very uncomfortable tonight and don't want to take a bath. Please don't blame me."
He sniffed the lingering fragrance of her pajamas, "Yaoyao, the whole family is reunited outside, but I am the only one, all alone..."
"Where have you been, can you hear me?"
"If you're gone, it would be nice to send me a dream."
"Do you hate me so much, will you never forgive me in your life?"
He took out a bulging red envelope from his arms and placed it under the pillow where she had slept.
"Yaoyao, this is your lucky money for this year. I promised you that I would give it to you until you are ninety-nine years old, not a year less."
"I ordered more than a dozen red brocade dresses for you in the twelfth lunar month. I wanted to accompany you back to your parents' home..."
"I promise, I will never make you angry, scold you, threaten you, or force you again... Can you come back and see me?"
"You gave me a happy year, can you bear to let me suffer for the rest of my life?"
"I was wrong……"
"Wife, I know I was wrong..."
"Please, come back..."

You can drink to relieve your depression at night, but at the beginning of the new year, you can't avoid cheering up and attending official social events.

Chu Dexin had a daughter, who was beautiful and lovely. Shen Jie teased the baby and finally showed a sincere smile.
"I am full of bitterness and hatred all day long," Chu De shook his head and sighed, "This is what it means to be alone."

I am a lonely man who claims to be an emperor, and it seems that Chu is almost as bad as the lower class. "The new emperor is not alone. He married a dark-skinned little princess from Wuhuan and slept in the palace for several nights. Whoever is sad and miserable knows it."
Shen Jie put down his chopsticks and said calmly: “Come over for dinner tonight, and don’t talk about anything else.”
"You are the one without elders or a boss in your family." Chu De sneered, "I heard that you sent away a maid who showed her kindness to you on New Year's Eve?"
"The prince is really well-informed." Lin Shuyan listened to his mother talking about this matter, and praised Shen Jie for his self-discipline.
"There aren't as many unruly people in my house as there are in yours." Chen Jie glanced at the maids around him who were dressed in charming clothes and had fragrant hair.
"You are just too self-centered. Love between men and women is just a matter of life and death. The more you dwell on it, the more painful it will be." Chu De is an experienced person. He lost his loved one. After a period of time, he found a new love and slowly got out of the haze.
