Chapter 300: Farewell
Cui Yu's mood was gloomy for a few days, and finally got better.
Cui Yu deliberately took a shower and changed into new clothes, and kept thinking about what to say when they met along the way. But when he really entered Changyuan Bo's Mansion and arrived in Qinfang Garden, he suddenly felt inexplicably nervous and timid.
Cui Wan held up her big belly and sat and gossiped with Cui Yu. After a while, Chaoyun came to report with a smile: "Young grandmother, Miss Ten is here." β
Cui Wan's body was bulky, and it was inconvenient to get up to greet her, so she smiled and said, "Hurry up and invite the tenth sister in." β
Cui Yu unconsciously held his breath and looked at the door.
A light figure appeared by the door, with bright eyes like water, smiling, and a light green spring dress, which added a bit of beauty to her. I haven't seen her for more than a month, and she seems to be a little more beautiful.
Ye Qinglan was secretly shocked when she saw Cui Yu. Although he was wearing new clothes, his face was really not good, and his whole person was thin.
Cui Wan's words yesterday came to mind again: "...... His mother has already gone to Luofu for him to propose marriage, and he will soon be officially married. When he learned about this, he knelt and cried for a long time, and then shut himself in the room and refused to come out. I really had no other way but to coax him first and promise to arrange for him to meet you privately. Tenth sister, I know this has embarrassed you. For my sake, see him one last time. Let him die completely, lest he always think about you......"
She hesitated for a moment, but then agreed. Whether it is looking at Cui Wan's face or pituring this infatuated young man's heart, this side must be seen.
"I've seen Brother Cui Shi." Ye Qinglan was slightly blessed and greeted with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Cui Shi for winning the Jinshi." β
Cui Yu calmed down, smiled a little crampedly, and his eyes drifted to Cui Wan unconsciously.
Cui Wan stood up: "You two talk for a while, I have something to do, I'll come when I go." He said. Apologetically glanced at Ye Qinglan pleadingly.
In the final analysis, today's meeting is actually embarrassing for Ye Qinglan......
Ye Qinglan smiled slightly, implying that she didn't mind. waited for Cui Wan to lead a group of maids out. Only she and Cui Yu were left in the room.
Cui Yu looked at Ye Qinglan in a daze, obviously having a thousand words in his heart, but he didn't know where to start.
Time is running out, and you can't keep staring at it like this. Ye Qinglan simply opened her mouth first: "Do you have something to say to me?" β
Cui Yu's heart jumped. Suddenly he didn't dare to look directly at those bright eyes: "Yes, I...... I have something to tell you. β
Thinking of what he was going to say next, Cui Yu felt an indescribable pain in his heart. It took all the strength of his body to reluctantly spit out the words: "Mother has already decided for me." It's the second lady of Luofu. I don't want to...... But I couldn't disobey my mother. She has been treating me very well for so many years. I can't let her down...... I'm sorry. I lost my words. I've failed you, I'm sorry ......"
Cui Yu couldn't say any more, and the tears quickly rushed into his eyes, but he endured it and didn't fall.
Looking at Cui Yu's appearance, Ye Qinglan was also a little sour in her heart. After a moment of silence, he said softly: "I knew about this matter yesterday. The voice was unexpectedly calm.
Cui Yu's heart trembled, and he reflexively looked up at Ye Qinglan: "You...... You already know? "But. Why is she so calm and not sad at all?
Ye Qinglan also looked at it quietly, with pity, sympathy and sighing in her eyes, but there was no sadness and pain: "Actually, you don't have to feel sorry for me." β
Why did she react the way she did? Cui Yu was suddenly a little frightened, and always felt that he would hear some words that he couldn't bear next.
"Brother Cui Shi, congratulations." Ye Qinglan's voice was still so steady and gentle, as if this qiΔ had no effect on her: "Passing the Jinshi exam and deciding on a family affair is a good thing for double happiness, and I am also happy for you." As for what you've said before, you don't really have to mind. I have always treated you as a brother, and I never expected Cui Fu to come to the door to propose marriage. So, you don't have to dwell on what you've said before. β
Cui Yu looked at Ye Qinglan in a daze, his heart sank straight down, and there was still the last trace of hope in his words: "This is not your true words." You're saying that to comfort me, aren't you? β
Ye Qinglan knew that she couldn't be soft-hearted at this time, so she responded ruthlessly: "I'm not comforting you, what I just said is what I said in my heart." Knowing that you have made a marriage, I am truly happy for you. I always wanted to say it before, but I was afraid that it would affect your participation in the scientific expedition, so I didn't say it bluntly at that time. Now that you have passed the palace examination, I am truly relieved. I am willing to come to see you today because I want to make it clear to you, so that you will not always feel sorry for me in your heart. β
Cui Yu's face turned pale little by little, completely bloodless. He sat there straight, his eyes blank. Ye Qinglan's words kept echoing in his mind.
It turned out that it had always been his wishful thinking!
It turned out that she had never really liked him!
His promise is only one that he has always kept in mind. She never thought of marrying him.
Ye Qinglan looked at his dejected appearance, and felt a little sad in her heart. If she could, she really didn't want to say such heartless words to hurt a teenager who loved her wholeheartedly. But it has come to this point, and only by doing so can it be truly good for him.
Instead of worrying about pain in the future, it is better to cut off a qiΔ neatly. It is better to suffer for a moment than to be endlessly tied up in the future.
"Miss Luo Er is your good match, you don't have to worry about me in the future." Ye Qinglan tried her best to keep her voice calm and reasonable: "This is the last time the two of us will meet alone, don't come to me again in the future." β
After speaking, he didn't look at Cui Yu, got up and walked out with a hard heart.
"Wait!" Cui Yu opened his mouth with difficulty: "Tenth sister, do you really not like me a little bit from beginning to end?"
Ye Qinglan didn't look back, and responded indifferently: "Yes, I only have brother and sister affection for you, and I have never liked men and women." Forget me! β
In fact, she has also been shaken. If you marry Cui Yu, who is simple-hearted, the future will definitely be very peaceful and happy. This kind of life is actually quite good. It's a pity that Cui Yu has such a ruthless and shrewd mother-in-law, which is prohibitive. What's more, she met another man who really appealed to her.
Feelings can't be charitable, she didn't fall in love with Cui Yu, so she can only say goodbye regretfully.
Ye Qinglan left without looking back.
Cui Yu watched Ye Qinglan's figure fade away until he disappeared, and he only felt that the very important things in his body had also been taken away. The heart is empty and unsettled.
It's strange, my heart hurts to the extreme, but it's a little numb. I couldn't even shed tears......
I don't know how long I sat in a daze, and a voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Second brother, are you okay?" Cui Wan walked in at some point and looked at him worriedly.
Cui Yu's face was blank, and he opened his mouth stiffly: "Eldest sister, I can hold ......"
Cui Wan felt sour and heartache for a while, and deliberately softened her tone: "Silly boy, what are you going to do in front of me." If you feel sad, you will cry happily. β
Cui Yu smiled miserably. He didn't have the right to cry, he wasn't good enough, so she didn't like him. It was that he didn't have the courage to resist, so he didn't even have the right to beg her to give him a chance now.
Cui Wan also cried with her, and waited for Cui Yu's love to stabilize before she opened her mouth to persuade: "Second brother, you and the tenth sister don't have this fate, it's better to let go as soon as possible, don't worry about her anymore." β
At this time, Cui Yu, where could he listen to this, bowed his head and was silent.
Cui Wan softened her voice again: "Don't blame your mother, your mother is also dedicated to your good." β
Cui Yu was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth with difficulty: "Sister, there is something I don't understand. Mother used to like Tenth Sister very much, why does she suddenly dislike her now? β
Cui Wan naturally didn't want to reveal the truth, so Zuo Gu Yan said, "I don't know much about this......
"Eldest sister, don't lie to me. You know for sure. Cui Yu pleaded with a face: "Please tell me if it's okay, I know that I am no longer qualified to like her." But I don't want to be left in the dark. β
Cui Wan hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and said, "Actually, this starts from the day of Sister Lian'er's full moon. At that time, the third aunt sat beside her mother and talked to her mother about the tenth sister...... "She told the events of the day in a few words, and said, "...... To tell the truth, even if the mother agrees to propose, with the temperament of the third aunt, she will inevitably obstruct it. Mother is willing to let you suffer such humiliation, so she is in a hurry to tell you another family matter. β
Cui Yu listened stunned, his mind was confused.
It turned out that so many things had happened when he didn't know it. He was so naΓ―ve that he thought everything so simply.
"Marriage is not a matter of two people, it also involves two families." Cui Wan sighed: "The third aunt is the mother of the tenth sister, as long as she doesn't nod, the mother can't have a child." I naturally hope that you and the tenth sister can come together by fate. But now it seems that this is destined to be an extravagant hope. β
Cui Yu only felt that his nose was sore, and his eyes were red again. After a while, he whispered, "Then what will she do in the future?" "If the Xue clan is deliberately embarrassed, I am afraid that such things will emerge in an endless stream in the future.
Cui Wan cheered up and smiled: "You don't have to worry about this. The tenth sister has always been clever and will not always fall behind. "What's more, if that person really has this mind, he will definitely be able to come up with a way......
"The second lady of Luofu is both talented and beautiful, and it is also your blessing that you can marry her. You'll have to treat people well in the future. Cui Wan's voice sounded in her ears again.
Cui Yu's tears slipped down at some point, quickly blurring his vision. From today onwards, he is no longer qualified to like her. He's going to marry another woman......
