Su Wanwan frowned for a long time.
The face of a middle-aged beautiful woman slowly emerged in my memory.
Extremely difficult to deal with.
However, she still accepted the jade items from her shop.
For merchant ships sailing overseas, having such exquisite, valuable, and durable artifacts as cargo to make money overseas is a very good business opportunity.
Su Wanwan shuddered.
Merchant ships?
Yes, she has a fleet of ships.
Lu Xingjian's face showed a hint of joy: "Wanwan, you remembered, didn't you?"
Su Wanwan bit her lip and nodded gently.
I remembered a few things, but not many.
"I have a husband, and I'm a widow, aren't I? Why didn't I remain faithful to him?"
Lu Xingjian hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth anyway.
"Your husband, Xu Peng'an, is actually not dead. He is still on the grassland, married and has children."
"He has no intention of coming back to reunite with you, do you still want to remain faithful to him?"
Su Wanwan paused for a moment, then shook her head firmly.
She's not the kind of woman who clings to any man.
Lu Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing her silent expression, he tentatively asked, "Would you like to go to the Yang family to offer incense to Madam Yu?"
“You two used to be very close, and you even became sworn brothers.”
He hoped she could interact more with the outside world and regain her memory as soon as possible, so that she wouldn't be so wary and distant towards him.
Su Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Lu Xingjian accompanied her to the Yang family.
Yang Ting looked sorrowful and dejected, his shoulders slumped.
He and Madam Yu were a middle-aged couple, and their relationship was not as deep as that with his first wife.
However, Madam Yu had managed the household affairs for more than ten years without any worries, and he was still grateful to her.
He had hoped that becoming the Grand Secretary would allow her to enjoy a few years of glory.
I never expected her to leave so suddenly.
Yang Zhen was deeply affected.
He and his stepmother have always treated each other with respect.
There was even some covert precaution.
For more than ten years, his stepmother treated him, his wife, and his children with respect and never deliberately suppressed or manipulated them.
Unexpectedly, his unintentional act led to her death.
There were clearly other ways to resolve this matter, but he insisted on handling things outside the door, which gave those unscrupulous beggars an opportunity to take advantage of him.
When Su Wanwan and Lu Xingjian brought Yan Ge'er over, he, as the eldest son who was returning the greetings, was kneeling in front of the mourning hall.
Lu Xingjian and Su Wanwan both lit an incense stick.
Yan Ge not only offered incense, but also bowed to Yang Zhen, saying, "Sir."
Yang Zhen immediately felt a soreness in his nasal cavity.
Everyone else's family is doing just fine.
It was his meddling that caused trouble for his stepmother.
His wife, Wang, has also been extremely cold towards him lately.
But what exactly did he do wrong?
He was simply worried that a vulnerable woman would be trampled to death in the crowd.
There was absolutely no overstepping of the bounds.
However.
The woman he had intended to save had such a blank expression that she didn't even glance at him.
She probably doesn't even realize that this series of misfortunes is because of her.
Lu Xingjian took Su Wanwan to sit in Yang Ting's study.
Although Yang Ting was saddened, he still received the two respectfully.
He even asked with a hint of earnestness, "Does His Majesty intend to restore the Empress's position?"
Su Wanwan's originally indifferent expression stiffened slightly, and she frowned a little.
Lu Xingjian keenly sensed her resistance and gave her a reassuring look: "No rush."
"Wanwan is in poor health, we should wait until she is better before bringing up these things."
Looking at the beautiful couple before him, Yang Ting reflected on his own life's trials and tribulations.
I went to my desk, picked up my brush, and wrote a piece of calligraphy, which I then presented to the two of them.
Brother Yan read crisply:
"Life is short and fleeting, and parting is always heartbreaking."
"Do not refuse frequent banquets and singing parties."
"The vast landscape evokes only longing thoughts of distant places; falling flowers and wind and rain only deepen the sorrow of spring."
"It's better to cherish the person in front of you."
He looked up at Lu Xingjian: "Father, what does this mean?"
Lu Xingjian patted his head and said, "You should cherish the people in front of you."
Yang Ting sighed softly.
If he had understood this principle sooner, perhaps he would have treated Madam Yu better.
That way, I wouldn't be filled with regret now.
Yan Ge'er held his father's hand with one hand and his mother's hand with the other, and sensibly said "Oh".
Su Wanwan paused for a moment, then slowly raised her hand and rubbed Yan Ge'er's head.
Yan Ge'er's eyes were getting hot.
I'm so excited.
It's been such a long, long time since his mother has been this affectionate with him.
Is Mother feeling better?
His guilt finally dissipated a little.
On the carriage back, Su Wanwan secretly sized up Lu Xingjian.
When Lu Xingjian looked over, she looked away again.
This man was indeed handsome, with a straight posture and superior demeanor.
She's also very gentle.
Whenever she saw him, she always had an urge to get closer.
However.
But there seemed to be a sour and bitter feeling in my heart.
Remind her that this man is dangerous.
Don't get close to him easily, and don't fall in love with him.
Otherwise, you'll only end up hurting yourself.
Yan Ge'er looked up at this, then at that, his little body subtly shifting towards his mother.
My mother smells so good.
It tastes just like my mother's.
He loves it so much, he longs to snuggle in his mother's arms.
Su Wanwan lowered her eyes and met his big, dark eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
The phrase "cherish the person in front of you" suddenly struck a chord with her.
