Lu Yalan couldn't help but be happy when she heard that her fiancé was coming to find her, so she ignored the messenger and stopped talking.

Although she wanted to rush to her fiancé's side immediately, the education she received since childhood made Lu Yalan always remember to maintain a dignified and calm demeanor, she walked towards the garden without hurrying or slow, only the maid who followed her since childhood knew that the young lady was one or two points faster than usual.

Zhao Dingsheng, who was waiting in the garden, saw Lu Yalan with a wooden face, and sneered lightly in his heart, worthy of being a famous wooden person in Yancheng, and saw that she was dressed up in old fashion, and her good appearance of nine points was cut into three points, and he couldn't help but get more and more bored.

Therefore, he spoke even more ruthlessly, and just wanted to explain clearly and leave quickly.

"Lu Yalan, we are not suitable, let's get married. ”

The blush on Lu Yalan's face had not faded before the cold words went straight to the door, her face was pale, and she stood in place for a moment at a loss.

Zhao Dingsheng is now twenty-three years old, not long after returning from his studies in the United States, he has a long body, both the elegance of a traditional scholarly family and the unique vitality of international students, and he is very favored by big girls and little daughters-in-law when he walks on the road.

Zhao and Lu's two families are world friends, and they have set up a baby kiss since childhood, and Lu Yalan was about to get married at sixteen, but Zhao Dingsheng wanted to study abroad, and the marriage between the two has been delayed so far.

Zhao Dingsheng came to visit Lu's house when he first returned to China, and at that time, Lu Yalan couldn't help but hide in the corner and look at it from afar, just that glance made her look forward to her future husband even more.

Although she was sued by the second aunt to the old lady after that, saying that she did not educate a private man, and was punished for kneeling in the ancestral hall for three days, and her knees were swollen to the point that she could not walk normally, as long as she thought of that person, her heart was sweet.

Lu Yalan didn't expect that the first official meeting after growing up would be such a bolt from the blue.

Why, she wanted to ask?

But her education since she was a child told her that women should obey men, not question men, and everyone should be dignified and magnificent, and catering to and pleasing is what a cheap maid can do not be on the stage.

Eventually, she tightened her skirt, and her calm tone concealed humility and caution: "Did I do something wrong?"

Zhao Dingsheng looked at Lu Yalan cowering and couldn't help but think of the person who put it on the top of his heart, if that person would have replied proudly and confidently, you are not worthy.

Thinking of his sweetheart, the corners of Zhao Dingsheng's mouth couldn't help but hook, and when his eyes turned, he saw the corners of his ex-fiancée's mouth pressed down again.

"Now that the Republic of China is in the Republic, the pursuit of happiness is everyone's right and freedom, I have received the most advanced education, have the most cutting-edge ideas, looking at the numb people and the enslaved motherland, everyone is drunk and I feel the loneliness of being awake, I deeply understand, I want like-minded revolutionary warriors, who can pursue ideals and happiness with me, rather than feudal dross who can't even read a few big characters. ”

It is impossible for the old lady to let the lonely man and widow stay together, even if it is an empty garden, there must be a maid and a grandmother hidden around, if she loses the rules at this time, what awaits her is the family law.

Lu Yalan clenched her hands with all her strength, and her nails sank into the flesh and caused pain, which made her remember to maintain the dignity of everyone's ladies.

This scene fell in Zhao Dingsheng's eyes, that is, she was expressionless, and she was unmoved in the face of marriage events.

What a wooden man who only moves with a string.

"The times are advancing, and now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is gone, you still regard the feudal tumor as a guideline, and it is your fault that you are not enterprising and are abandoned by the times. Of course, if you are married to the old and young of the Manchu Dynasty, then there is naturally no problem, our thoughts are not synchronized, there is no way to communicate, this is not to blame you, only to blame me for walking too fast. ”

Zhao Dingsheng was impassioned, Lu Yalan didn't understand power, revolution, the times or anything, but she could feel that he was disgusting her.

Lu Yalan has been told since she was a child that she has an excellent fiancé, and the Zhao and Lu families have close contacts, even if they don't deliberately inquire, they can often hear that the young master of the Zhao family is praised by his master, and the article of the young master of the Zhao family has been published......

Lu Yalan remembered that one day the old lady came to serve Chunzao and brought a newspaper for the first time and pointed out to her the article sent by the young master of the Zhao family, she didn't recognize many words, but she still begged Chunzao to read to her.

She kept the newspaper all the time, and no one took it out from time to time to look at it, and she worked hard to complete the homework assigned by her grandmother, just to make herself worthy of him.

She has been working hard for one person for nineteen years of her life, no matter what her original intentions are, it has become a habit, soaked in flesh and skin, deep in bones and blood.

Now, the man told her that the flesh and skin are not yours, and the blood and bones are not yours, and that you will be stripped of the skin and blooded, leaving only an empty shell.

How does this not hurt?

How can this not hurt?

Lu Yalan felt a sharp blade stirring in her chest, turning the river and the sea inside, and a sour smell rushed straight to her eyes, making her eyes bloodshot, and she just wanted to cry regardless of it.

But everyone should always be dignified, not lose their temper under any circumstances, let alone cry, can't cry in front of outsiders, otherwise they won't be ashamed, they can't cry in front of their subordinates, otherwise they will damage their majesty, and they can't cry in front of their husbands, otherwise they will be angry.

She hasn't cried since she was eight years old.

Lu Yalan didn't understand what Zhao Dingsheng was talking about, and the only reason he could think of for renouncing from the marriage was that his fiancé fell in love with someone else and didn't want to marry her.

Her eyes widened, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "If you have a woman you like, you can admit her into the door, I ...... I don't mind. She grabbed her dress, "If you withdraw from your family, it will affect the relationship between the Zhao and Lu families." ”

Zhao Dingsheng was angry when he heard this: "It's like playing the piano to the cow!"

He could not tolerate anyone slandering his goddess, "Not everyone is like you, it's just filthy! The pursuit of love is everyone's right, and if I am pleased with her, I will pursue her, but until then, we are pure revolutionary friendship, and no one will be allowed to tarnish it." It has nothing to do with her that I divorce you, not all men will have three wives and four concubines, and not all women will be concubines without dignity!"

People like us...... What kind of person is it......

"Forget it, why am I telling you this, you can't even understand it!"

Zhao Dingsheng didn't want to look at Lu Yalan more, he just felt that he was very stupid to come here in person, since the two families had reached an agreement, why did he have to go more, it was simply asking for his own guilt.

He completely forgot that the girl in front of him had waited for him for years, because he had delayed the flowering.

Zhao Dingsheng passed away, Lu Yalan stiffened in place and did not stay, just now it was already her limit, in fact, she suffered more than just divorce.

Zhao Dingsheng's eyes were contempt, disdain, and contempt.

Lu Yalan can't read a few words, but that doesn't mean she's not smart.

Her mother has passed away and her father doesn't care, she lives carefully in the Lu family's mansion, no one shelters, and she knows how to read people's faces better than her peers.

When Zhao Dingsheng returned to China, she thought that she would soon have a home, a home of her own, but this person didn't want her.

...........

"Did you hear that? The second lady was dismissed. A few maids gathered together and whispered.

"Really, hey, I'll just say that Young Master Zhao is such an excellent man, how can the second lady be worthy of this blessed person. ”

"Hey, you little, the second miss is also what you can arrange. The little girl was twisted by the person next to her, "Even if it's not the second miss, it can't be you, quickly collect your thoughts that you shouldn't have, and save us tired in the future." ”

"Oh, my sister just thinks too much, don't say that these will all be my own sisters, even if the second lady hears it, that soft-faced person won't do anything to us. ”

"You dare to be stubborn, see if I don't clean up your ......"

Seeing that the two were about to pinch each other, the people next to them hurriedly pulled the fight, and someone changed the topic: "I heard that Young Master Zhao was sent to the family law by Master Zhao in order to withdraw from his family." ”

"It's really fake!" everyone stopped fighting, and they all gathered around.

The maid who spoke was called Ah Xiang, the family had been a servant for generations, and she was very decent in front of her master, and most of her relatives were servants, and she was well-informed, so she believed it when she said this.

"Of course it's true. Ah Xiang swore: "My sister's mother-in-law's aunt's son has a good friend who works on an errand in the Zhao family, she said it herself, it is said that Young Master Zhao was beaten into a coma and did not let go, no way, how can adults be strong against children, Master Zhao had to come to apologize in person." ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel sorry for the Qingjun Young Master Zhao, and one of them suddenly sighed: "I don't know what kind of fairy Young Master Zhao's sweetheart is, although the second miss is a little wooden, but that appearance is really first-class." Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she wondered, "What? Am I wrong?"

Everyone hurriedly shook their heads, yes, what can make a man insist so much can only be that he has taken a fancy to others, the second lady is so pitiful, she is so old, and she has been withdrawn, how can she marry in the future.

Ah Xiang beckoned mysteriously, and several people hurriedly came up, "You must not have imagined, who did Young Master Zhao fall in love with?"

She looked around and saw that everyone's eyes were fixed on her, and smiled with satisfaction: "I tell you, you can't say it." I heard that the young master of the Zhao family called the name of the third lady when he was in a coma. said that Young Master Zhao was a teacher at the Third Miss School. ”

Everyone was in an uproar, the third lady was not as beautiful as the second miss, but after thinking about it carefully, I took it for granted, I heard that the current progressive young people like to find foreign students, and the third lady's foreign style is really not learned by ordinary people.

Lu Yalan sat motionless at the table for almost an hour, and the maid Hongxing was anxious and didn't know how to persuade her, so she pushed open the window and prepared to let the young lady breathe through the air after thinking for a long time.

The chattering of the maids was carried into the house with the wind to break the dead silence of the room, and Hongxing couldn't help but be happy when she saw the young lady move, but saw her go to the window and listen.

Hongxing was stunned for a moment, and then pricked up her ears, and then became angry: "These uncleaned up people have also arranged young ladies, see if I don't kill them." ”

Hongxing rolled up her sleeves and was about to go out, but was pulled by Lu Yalan, and her anger turned to tears when she turned her head to see the appearance of the young lady.

Big tears slipped from the corners of Hongxing's eyes, "Miss, don't laugh, you cry, it's better to cry, I feel distressed when you look like this." ”

Lu Yalan hugged Hongxing: "Okay, don't cry, you should be punished if you cry and have red eyes, don't cry, it's beautiful, find a good mother-in-law for us Hongxing in the future......"

As she spoke, Lu Yalan choked up and couldn't speak, her eyes were still dry.

Hongxing covered her eyes, and tears still came out of her fingers: "Didn't you say that I will cry for you in the future, Miss, I can't help it." ”
