Zhao Zhi is of medium stature, his face is thin and clear, his complexion is slightly dark, and his facial features are not very good, but his eyes are quiet and deep, full of wisdom, and he has all the sharpness of a young man. lΔ
The person who followed him in a suit should be his second brother Zhao Xin.
Zhao Xin is a little shorter than Zhao Zhi, but his complexion is much fairer than Zhao Zhi, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, his face is slightly round, and his lips always seem to be smiling.
"Third brother, where are you going?" The brothers got out of the carriage and just saw Zhao Jian sending Xu Changsheng out, Zhao Xin asked in surprise.
Only then did Zhao Jian notice Brother Zhao Zhi, and immediately ran out excitedly: "Big brother and second brother, you guys are back!" β
Zhao Xin patted Zhao Jian's shoulder, his eyes were full of relief: "Good boy, he looks almost as tall as the second brother." β
Zhao Xin went abroad with Zhao Shi back then, but the two brothers chose different majors, and the schools they were in were also different, two years ago Yu deceived Zhao Shi back to get married, Zhao Xin was not there by chance, it was because only Zhao Shi returned to China at that time, so counted, Zhao Xin has gone abroad to miss, and the brothers have not seen each other for four years.
When Zhao Xin left, Zhao Jian was only nine years old and was still a child, and now four years have passed, Zhao Jian is already a half-sized young man, and he looks about the same height as Zhao Xin.
Zhao Jian smiled shyly.
Not only did Zhao Xin feel that Zhao Jian had changed a lot, but Zhao Jian also felt that Zhao Xin was a little more unfamiliar.
Four years have left traces on everyone, especially Zhao Xin, who has gone abroad and seen the new world, and Zhao Jian, who has only seen it through letters and books, the gap is quite large, in Zhao Jian's eyes, Zhao Xin has now become very trendy, and his original familiar appearance is very different.
Stranger than familiar.
This is the inevitability of growth.
Anyway, after four years, seeing his brother again, Zhao Jian is still very excited.
Seeing Zhao Xin, Zhao Jian turned his head to look at the eldest brother who was standing on the side and looking at him with a slight smile, as if he had been growing up many times, giving him a warm and down-to-earth feeling, he was excited, strode towards Zhao Zhi, and when he saw it, Xu Changsheng's face suddenly appeared in front of him, and Xu Changsheng's words echoed in his ears, the smile on Zhao Jian's face froze, and his steps couldn't help but hesitate.
The eldest brother is an excellent eldest brother, but the eldest brother's treatment of the sister-in-law like that makes him unable to agree, and even feels that the eldest brother has a problem with his character, and he is not a responsible and trustworthy person, so he subconsciously made a choice.
Zhao Jian turned his head and looked at Xu Changsheng, Xu Changsheng has been standing in place since the appearance of Brother Zhao Zhi, a person with a strong sense of existence, I don't know why, suddenly it seems to have disappeared without a trace, people can't think of it, and can't notice it, but when I think of her at this time, I can't ignore her no matter what.
Xu Changsheng smiled at Zhao Jian, without the slightest anger or anger, but it made Zhao Jian feel even more uncomfortable, and his complaints against Zhao Zhi were deeper.
Zhao Zhi was very keenly aware of Zhao Jian's resistance and dissatisfaction with him, Zhao Xin was also a delicate person, and he quickly noticed Zhao Jian's abnormality towards Zhao Zhi, after all, whether it was him or Zhao Jian, in fact, he was very convinced of Zhao Zhi, the eldest brother who stood up and carried the family in a difficult time at home, but Zhao Jian now has a knot in his heart for Zhao Zhi, which is very surprising.
Zhao Shi and Zhao Xin looked at Xu Changsheng at the same time, and suddenly felt that their eyes lit up and their eyes were full of amazement.
The two brothers couldn't help but think of the poem: "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent, who cares about the city and the country." Rather don't know the city and the country, and the beauty is hard to get. β
There is also "the mountain of contempt and shooting, and there are gods and men who dwell." The skin is like ice and snow, and it is like a virgin; Do not eat grains, suck wind and drink dew; Ride the clouds, fly the dragon, and swim beyond the four seas; Its spirit is condensed, so that things are not flawed and ripe. β
All this, it even makes people feel that they can't describe the beauty of her, which makes the Zhao Shi brothers feel very shocked in their hearts, and they only feel that the women they have seen in their lives are dignified or beautiful, delicate or charming, and none of them can be compared.
Zhao Jian saw that the two brothers were fascinated by Xu Changsheng's beauty, and he was very proud, and even went to see Zhao Zhi, although there was a faint hope in his heart that he could change his mind, but of course he still hoped that Zhao Zhi could see Xu Changsheng's beauty, so as to change his mind, keep Xu Changsheng, and live a good life with her, in his heart, no one in this world can compare with Xu Changsheng.
It's just that when he turned his head and saw Xu Changsheng's face that was always calm and unwavering, he sighed softly in his heart, his sister-in-law has been heartbroken by his eldest brother and mother, this time I am afraid that even if the eldest brother is willing to change his mind, his sister-in-law may not be willing to start from scratch with him.
Zhao Jian really felt that the loss of his eldest brother and sister-in-law would definitely be the biggest loss in his life.
Of course, Xu Changsheng will not accept Zhao Zhi again, but the first time she saw a real person, she still looked at it very seriously, looking at this thinker, revolutionary, and writer who was praised by the world in her previous life, and she also wanted to ask him, when she wrote those critical articles that day, how did she think of her foolishness and filial piety that day?
What is the feeling of ruining a person's life?
Smug or apathetic?
Xu Changsheng didn't ask, she knew that there would be no answer, or rather, she didn't need an answer anymore.
Selfish and cowardly people always have a thousand reasons to extricate themselves.
However, seeing that Zhao Zhi quickly came back to her senses, she was not surprised, but when she saw the confusion in his eyes, she obviously did not recognize her, Xu Changsheng snorted coldly in his heart, and the corners of his lips brought out a slight mockery, which made the keen Zhao Zhi more and more puzzled.
The woman in front of her seems to be quite hostile to him.
"This lady isβ" Zhao Zhi spoke up for the first time, but asked who his wife was!
The ridicule on the corners of Xu Changsheng's lips and the coldness in his eyes were even stronger, and Zhao Jian's face turned even redder, which made Zhao Zhi and Zhao Xin, who had already come back to his senses, very puzzled.
"Is this lady a guest in the house?" Zhao Xin, like Zhao Shi, went out for a trip, and his words and deeds have changed greatly, and this title has become fashionable.
"What a guest!" Zhao Jian didn't dare to look at Xu Changsheng's smiling expression, and said angrily with a red face: "This is the sister-in-law." Sister-in-law! β
Zhao Jian only felt shameless to face Xu Changsheng.
Xu Changsheng shook his head and smiled lightly: "It's okay." β
Is this Xu Yao?
Zhao Zhi and Zhao Xin both widened their eyes in disbelief.
Xu Changsheng was not in a hurry to leave at this time, glanced at the two brothers, and said lightly: "When the two come back, the wife knows that she is afraid that she will be happy, so let's go and make her old man happy first." β
Xu Changsheng no longer looked at the two of them, walked inside, thought of something, and turned back to the coachman who was waiting on the side and said, "I still have some things here, I have to delay for a while, please wait for a while." β
Although her expression was still cold and her posture was very high, she was a little more polite, and she asked the coachman to go down to rest, and then continued to walk inside.
Zhao Zhi and Zhao Xin were full of doubts, and Zhao Zhi was extremely shocked in his heart, although he had received a letter from Zhao Jian that Xu Yao had learned to read and read, and made rapid progress, he could be called a genius, but he always refused to believe it, only thought that it was the family who deceived him, and now he saw her, not only with fair skin and excellent complexion, but also with a lot of beauty, that is, that temperament, but also extremely noble Tsinghua, he even felt that even if it was a real lady, the real princess Gege in front of her, it would be overshadowed!
It's just half a year, can a person have such a big change?
If it weren't for Zhao Jian's deep belief in her, and he himself had indeed never liked or paid attention to this wife, he was very unfamiliar, he would almost think that this person was pretending to be to coax him.
Now is not the time to pursue these, the important thing is to go in and see Yu.
The three brothers of Zhao Zhi followed Xu Changsheng inside, Zhao Jian was angry with Zhao Zhi, he pursed his mouth and walked in front with a tense face and refused to pay attention to him, Zhao Xin was still shocked and couldn't believe it, he stepped forward and asked Zhao Jian in a low voice: "Third brother, is she really a sister-in-law?" It's not that sister-in-lawβ"
Zhao Xin wanted to say that Xu Yao was an ugly girl without salt, but looking at Zhao Jian's ugly face, he closed his mouth knowingly, but his meaning was still revealed, which made Zhao Jian very angry.
For the first time, Zhao Jian felt that his two brothers were not as perfect as he imagined.
The eldest brother is ruthless and unrighteous, he married his sister-in-law but refused to treat others well and live a good life with others, and the second brother, as a man, is so critical of a woman or his own relatives, he is really uneducated! Apathetic to the extreme!
For the first time, he felt that it was understandable that his sister-in-law couldn't look down on his eldest brother.
Even he doesn't look down on himself!
When people's hearts are biased, when they look at things again, they are completely different, and Zhao Jian is like this now.
In the past, the family suffered a big disaster at a young age, and the whole family was supported by Zhao Shi, that is, Zhao Xin disciplined him a lot, and he looked like an eldest brother like a father, Zhao Zhi and Zhao Xin were in Zhao Jian's heart, both close to the children and respectful to the elders, and always felt that his eldest brother and second brother were the best in the world, but now, because of doubts about their conduct, the respect and respect over there have been greatly reduced, and their words and deeds have also revealed one or two dissatisfactions.
"What do you mean by this, second brother?" Zhao Jian's face was calm, with a hint of anger: "Don't you suspect that I'm lying?" β
Zhao Xin didn't expect Zhao Jian to react so much, and after being stunned for a while, he patted his head angrily: "Okay, you stinky boy, your temper is getting bigger and bigger, the second brother just asked you for nothing, but he started a temper at the second brother, you can do it, you!" β
Zhao Jian also felt that his reaction was a little too radical, but he couldn't want him to admit his mistake, so he only pursed his mouth and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Zhao Xin smiled helplessly and stopped talking.
Zhao Zhi, who was lagging behind, glanced at Xu Changsheng thoughtfully.
I didn't expect that it was only more than two years, and the junior had been so maintained, no, to be precise, it should only be more than half a year!
It's really shocking to use such a method.
Zhao Zhi was a little more wary of Xu Changsheng, and he was also a little dissatisfied with Zhao Jian.
No matter what, as a younger brother, he shouldn't be rude to his brother like this.
However, at this time, it was obviously not suitable for the godbrother, so Zhao Zhi did not speak.
Yu originally thought that Xu Changsheng had left, the whole person relaxed, the mood was very happy, and even felt that the whole person was much more relaxed, who knew that Xu Changsheng suddenly walked in, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Why are you still here?" Aren't you gone? β
Xu Changsheng paused, pursed his lips, and showed a trace of embarrassment on his face before he said, "It's the eldest young master and the second young master who are back." β
Xu Changsheng stepped out of the way, revealing Zhao Zhi and Zhao Xin behind him, the Yu family had not seen the eldest son for two years, and had not seen the second son for four years.
Zhao Jian's heart was originally a little cold, but when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be a little more touched, remembering the memories of those brothers, friends and brothers when he was a child, and then shed a few tears, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Xu Changsheng standing alone on the side, looking like he had been abandoned by the whole world, lonely and pitiful, he suddenly felt a little distressed, and then looked at Zhao Zhi, Zhao Xin and Yu's mother and son reunion, but his heart was a little cold.
The sister-in-law has paid so much for this family, and even in order to heal her mother and support the family, she even filled in all her dowry, but what did she get?
Her mother kept calling her a demon and drove her out of the house, and her husband, ever since he appeared, never said a word of concern!
What kind of cold and heartless heart is this?
What kind of revenge is this?
And these indifferent people are his relatives!
Seeing Xu Changsheng turn around and walk out, although Zhao Jian felt ashamed and couldn't face her, he still couldn't help but follow out.
"Sister-in-law." Zhao Jian stepped forward and called her softly.
Xu Changsheng turned back to him and smiled faintly, his eyes were full of understanding and tolerance: "Don't worry, I'm fine." β
Zhao Jian felt more and more sad, such a good sister-in-law, why can't they see it?
"I'm sorry." Zhao Jian lowered his head with red eyes.
Xu Changsheng sighed softly.
No matter what Zhao Jian became in his previous life, and at this moment, he was still a simple boy, and he was a child who was used by her, Xu Changsheng was a little unbearable, but he definitely didn't have the urge to give up his plan.
She grew up in the cruel cultivation world, because of her good background, good qualifications, and the pride of the sky, she has suffered a lot less than others since she was a child, so the cruel environment has certainly made her temperament cold, but in terms of heart, she is also much simpler, and she will always be soft-hearted for a moment or two, but this will definitely not affect her nature.
"These things have nothing to do with you, you don't have to take them to heart and worry about yourself." Xu Changsheng persuaded Zhao Jian.
Zhao Jian smiled bitterly.
How could he not take it to heart?
But seeing Xu Changsheng's concerned gaze, he could only beat his spirit, not wanting her to worry about himself: "That sister-in-law, are you still leaving?" β
"Let's go," Xu Changsheng said with a smile.
"But-" Zhao Jian stopped talking, the eldest brother is back, can't he be given another chance?
Isn't there no extravagant hope in her heart when she stays?
Xu Changsheng saw through his mind and brutally shattered: "I just hope that everything will be dealt with before leaving." β
Zhao Jian was suddenly disappointed, and his whole person collapsed. (To be continued.) )
