Lai Yongnian rubbed his eyebrows, a trace of fatigue flashed on his face, he leaned back in the chair slightly, and continued: "Since I got the spirit of Ah Wan, my appearance has never changed---- is the appearance you see now." ”

I nodded knowingly.

The spirit of the demon clan can stay in the face, I know that. For example, Langya has lived for tens of thousands of years, but he still looks like a young man, and there is no trace of time on his face.

"It's just that you've always been like this, and your people aren't suspicious?" I asked curiously.

"They only let me have food and clothing and take care of me properly, but they didn't really suspect anything." Lai Yongnian said slowly: "Ah Wan and I both know very well that if we keep our young appearance, then one day we will be rejected by the people around us as monsters, so Ah Wan has grown up day by day like an ordinary person from the beginning, and then aged year by year, only at night, when she faces me alone, she will take off her disguise and reveal her original young face." ”

"And I, however, are reluctant to grow old"

Lai Yongnian touched his cheek, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "I know that I have outstanding appearance, and every time I go out, I can always attract the admiration of countless women, so I can't bear to let my face become full of wrinkles and become abandoned."

"You're a man!" I couldn't help but say.

"A selfish man!" Lai Yongnian sighed and said: "I always say to Ah Wan---- wait, I will get old when I start next year!" But before I could grow old, I brought a disaster to Ah Wan! ”

Disaster?

We stretched out our ears, and saw Lai Yongnian frowning in a little pain, and then poured another cup of herbal tea into it, then pursed his lips and said: "The girl that the elder of the Lai clan brought when he came to the door, according to the patriarch, is the most beautiful girl born in the clan, according to her generation, she is my distant niece, I thought that the patriarch brought her into Beijing to find a good family for her in Beijing---- after all, she has reached the age to be married!" asked Ah Wan to arrange for her to live in the inner house, who would have thought that that night, she touched my study. ”

"My study is opposite the bedroom, I read in the study on weekdays, and when I raise my eyes, I can see the silhouette of the embroidery of the lamp by the window opposite, but that day, I was tired of seeing, and when I looked up, I saw the girl brought by the old man standing outside the window at some point."

"I didn't care about looking at Ah Wan anymore, so I hurriedly beckoned her in and asked her what was the matter, but she blushed, twisted for a long time, dropped a sentence of 'my name is Wan'er', and then ran away."

"I thought it was funny, so I went back to the bedroom with a smile, and told Ah Wan about it as a joke, but Ah Wan was annoyed and ignored me all night."

"I thought that she was petty again, so I didn't want to go in my heart, who would have thought that for a few days in a row, that Wan'er ran to my study every night, either to send soup and water for supper, or to chat with me shyly and timidly. I'm not a hairy boy who hasn't experienced the world, so I can naturally see Wan'er's intentions, so I found a gap to find the clan elder and reminded him that his stay in the capital was not short, and there were many things in the clan, and it was time for him to go back. ”

Seeing this, the clan elder didn't beat around the bush anymore, but said bluntly---- he will wait for me to marry Wan'er before going back."

"The patriarch said that since the messenger came back and told me about my current situation in the capital, he began to plan for me."

"He wants me to marry a girl from the clan as a concubine. He said, I am nearly fifty years old, but my knees are empty, in the future, this great family business will always have to be inherited, my original wife is old, it is impossible to extend the heirs for me, but Wan'er is in her youth, she is a good daughter in the clan, and her background is innocent, it is better than a concubine bought outside! ”

"I refused."

"The clan elder persuaded me again and again, and even moved out of the clan rule of 'wives and children should be divorced', seeing that I still shouldn't, I had to ask me---- why don't you take a concubine? I only said that Ah Wan and Ah Wan are a poor couple, and now they are rich and noble, and they must not do that ungrateful thing. ”

"The clan elder had no choice but to leave with Wan'er, but when he was leaving, Wan'er suddenly knelt in front of me, saying that he had nothing else to ask for in this life, but to be able to serve in my study and be a dozen miscellaneous little girls, so it was enough."

"I didn't allow it, but Wan'er forced her to die, so I had to nod and take her to the house."

"Ah Wan was first considerate to me because I refused the proposal of the clan elder to take a concubine, but now when he saw me leading Wan'er back again, he suddenly became angry, and he didn't look good for me for three days in a row."

"I know Ah Wan's temper, it's just to make a little sex want me to coax her, it's also a fun between husband and wife, who ever thought, it happened that Wan'er bumped into it that day, just in time for Ah Wan to make Xiao Xing'er bite my finger, it didn't hurt, but I felt that I lost face---- maybe it was a man in front of other women, and he would always unconsciously want to maintain his dignity as a man. This is also a common problem of men. I was embarrassed for a while, and when I saw Wan'er crying, I couldn't pull down my face to reprimand, so I had to walk away. ”

"That night, Ah Wan had unbearable abdominal pain, so I hurriedly went to the doctor, and the doctor said that Ah Wan was poisoned by arsenic."

"I was shocked and angry, I wanted to report to the official, but I was afraid of causing trouble for myself, so I was in a hurry, but I saw Wan'er walk in."

"She said she was the one who gave the poison."

"I instructed my subordinates to tie up Wan'er and throw her into the firewood room, and then guarded Ah Wan, pouring the antidote decoction over and over again. The doctor said that dose of arsenic was enough to poison two cows, let alone a woman in her fifties! But I don't believe ---- Ah Wan is not a mortal, she will definitely be able to live! ”

It wasn't until the fifth day that Ah Wan woke up. I then remembered Wan'er in the firewood room, and when I went to see her again, I found that she had gone crazy. ”

"She called my name with a piece of wood, and said---- I know that you have a good heart, and you are reluctant to leave that cruel woman, so I will get rid of her for you!"

She also said that ---- father's asthma is a waste of money, and the family is almost unable to open the pot!" The patriarch gave my mother a hundred taels of silver, saying that as long as I came to make you a concubine, I didn't have to pay back the silver. I don't agree with Brother Niu who said that he will come to propose marriage when he has saved enough bride price next year! But my mother agreed, because my brother is also old enough to get married! I thought I was going to guard a bad old man for the rest of my life, who knows, I only know when I see you, you are not old at all! I fell in love with you at first sight! But you won't marry me, I know, I know, it's that old woman---- she's old and ugly, she's jealous of my youth and beauty, she won't let you marry me, she, she's still biting you! I'm going to kill her, I'm going to kill her for you."
