Chapter 143: Channeling
In the past few days, Ye Qinglan has been accompanying Ye Qingning, and Cui Wan has not had much chance to talk. But I have been secretly thinking about Cui Wan's psychological condition.
Don't look at Cui Wan smiling every day, looking like she is nothing, but it's not. Forcibly suppressing negative feelings is actually the worst thing to do. Far from alleviating psychological problems, it will make them worse.
Now that Ye Qingning's matter is over, it is time to make time to dismiss Cui Wan.
The little maid guarding the door in Qinfangyuan was very familiar with Ye Qinglan, and opened the door to Ye Qinglan with a smile: "The young grandmother has already come back and is resting in the house!" The slave maid will pass on the word to Miss Ten. ”
"No, I'll just go in by myself." Familiar and informal, she is now very proficient in entering and exiting the Qinfang Garden of Huancui Pavilion, and she has already been exempted from the set of communication.
The little maid stepped aside with a smile.
Ye Qinglan walked under the corridor unhurriedly, bypassed a bend, and entered the inner room, which was Cui Wan's bedroom. As soon as she walked into the inner room, Ye Qinglan noticed that something was subtle wrong.
The door was closed tightly, and several big and small maids around Cui Wan were waiting outside the door. But Cui Wan was nowhere to be seen.
Obviously, Cui Wan was locking herself in the room alone. No matter what Cui Wan was doing in the house, it didn't seem good for her to come and disturb her so boldly. But at this time, the maids all saw themselves, and it seemed too late to avoid them......
Ye Qinglan secretly regretted her reckless actions, so she had to step forward and knock on the door: "Sister-in-law, are you in the house?" I'm Qinglan. ”
After a while, a slightly hoarse voice came from the room: "Tenth cousin, I'm not feeling well today, can you come back tomorrow?" Her voice was thick and nasal, and it was evident that she had been crying hard in the house.
Ye Qinglan should have turned around and left. But after thinking about it, Cui Wan's mood fluctuated greatly, and her feelings were unstable. On the contrary, it is easier than usual to break through the gap in my heart. Such a good opportunity can not be missed!
"Sister-in-law," Ye Qinglan's voice was gentle and peaceful, with an inexplicable calming power: "I know you must be in a bad mood right now and don't want to see anyone." But there are some things that are stuffy in my heart, and I will only get more and more uncomfortable. It will be more comfortable to say it. If my sister-in-law doesn't dislike it, you might as well tell me about it. I can't help you with anything, but at least I'm a good listener. Can you open the door? ”
There was a moment of silence in the room, and then the door opened softly.
Cui Wan's eyes were red, there were still undried tears on her face, and her always dignified and beautiful face was pale and haggard. The hair is a little messy.
She has known Cui Wan for so long, and she has never seen Cui Wan so wolf. What the hell is going on?
Ye Qinglan felt a hint of pity in her heart and walked into the house silently. Then gently close the door. The windows in the room were closed tightly, the layers of light veils were pulled up, and the light was a little dim.
Cui Wan's most wolf appearance has been seen by Ye Qinglan, but she no longer dodges, just standing there silently. There was a blank desolation in his eyes.
Ye Qinglan thought for a while, and said in a low voice, "Did something happen just now?" "Today is the big day of Ye Qingning's marriage, all the Zheng family's thoughts are on this matter, and they shouldn't have the energy to find fault, right!
Cui Wan's lips trembled, but she didn't say anything. She had long been accustomed to enduring all the qiē, and had never been accustomed to confiding in anyone.
Ye Qinglan also fell silent. Then he suddenly asked, "Did my grandmother say anything?" ”
Cui Wan's eyes quickly flashed with a little water, and she forcibly held back the tears at the corners of her eyes.
It seems that she guessed right! Ye Qinglan sighed secretly. Since it's not Zheng. Only the Jiang family would be so anxious to persecute Cui Wan. Judging from Cui Wan's reaction, Jiang must have said something unpleasant. Otherwise, Cui Wan would not have hid in the house alone and cried like this.
"Grandmother wants the lobby brother to take a concubine, right?" Ye Qinglan keenly guessed the key to the matter.
Cui Wan felt a pain in her heart, tears quickly welled up out of the corners of her eyes, and finally opened her mouth and said, "Yes." ”
At today's luncheon at noon. Jiang Shi said to Cui Wan in front of all the female dependents: "Cui Shi, you have been married to our Changyuan Bofu for five years. Until now, there is only one daughter, Sister Qiao'er. It seems that you still have to give Yuan Wei a concubine as soon as possible. I don't think you have any opinions! ”
In the eyes of everyone who were surprised or pity or gloating at the jokes, Cui Wan used all her strength to not cry on the spot, biting her lip and not saying a word.
Seeing her react like this, Jiang Shi felt a little unhappy. said lightly: "Okay, this is decided in advance." As for the rest, it's not too late to discuss it slowly later. As he spoke, he changed the subject.
In the following time, Cui Wan did not say a word. finally survived until Zheng Guogong and the others left, so she hurriedly returned to Qinfangyuan, locked herself in the room and cried fiercely.
She has repeatedly backed down, but she has been pressed step by step......
Cui Wan's shoulders shrugged slightly, sobbing silently. This kind of crying is even more poignant and sad than crying.
Ye Qinglan watched from the side, and her heart was sour.
In this feudal era, a woman's fate is always a little more bumpy. Three from the four virtues firmly bind the hands and feet of women, even if they are talented and outstanding, they can only be locked in their youth by this deep house. This exquisite courtyard is not a big cage, which traps people firmly and cannot break free. What is even more tragic is that growing up in such an environment, they have long been accustomed to obedience, and they will not rebel against all kinds of unfair treatment inflicted on them.
The cowardly original owner is like this, so he chooses to use the most negative way to escape the tragedy a few years later, and the young life falls early. The same is true of the proud Ye Qingning, even if there is someone else she really likes in her heart, she still obeys her parents' arrangement and marries Zheng Junyan.
Cui Wan is even more so, she obviously doesn't want to share her husband with any woman, but she has to back down step by step. One day, there is no way to retreat, but to watch her husband gradually belong to another woman......
"If you want to cry, just cry happily!" Ye Qinglan stepped forward and wrapped her thin arms around Cui Wan's body: "My shoulder is leaning on you." ”
Cui Wan's long-held tears finally fell, leaning on Ye Qinglan's shoulder and crying.
Ye Qinglan's body is thin and weak, but her waist is straight, obviously her shoulders are weak, but she seems to contain endless strength.
Cui Wan fell on her shoulder and cried happily.
I don't know how long it took, Cui Wan's tears finally stopped, and her voice was already hoarse and speechless. Ye Qinglan's shoulders were already wet.
Cui Wan finally raised her head, her eyes were already red and swollen.
Ye Qinglan looked at her quietly and handed over the handkerchief in her hand. Cui Wan took the handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her face. It is also strange to say that it was full of sadness, sadness, resentment and disappointment, but with the tears pouring out, these negative dark feelings have also dissipated a lot.
Ye Qinglan patiently waited for Cui Wan to calm down, and then said softly: "Sister-in-law, I'm still young and don't understand these things very well. But I know that no matter what happens, people have to get by. Both grandmother and aunt want to see your cousin have an heir as soon as possible, and perhaps they are a little more anxious, and they have inadvertently broken your heart. But I think they're not trying to target you. It doesn't help you to cry and be sad now, the most important thing is to straighten your chest and face reality. If this matter is a foregone conclusion, then at least you should take the initiative so as not to be bullied in the future. ”
For example, since she wants to take a concubine for Ye Yuanwei, she, the wife, can choose the person she wants. I will be able to handle it better in the future.
For another example, Ye Yuanwei and her relationship are quite harmonious. At such a time, she might as well show some grievances in front of her husband, let her husband feel more sorry for herself, and also fight for more powerful bargaining chips for herself.
No matter how bad it is, she still has a cute and well-behaved daughter. Even if it is for the sake of her daughter, she has to be strong.
Cui Wan is also a smart person, and it is impossible for her to understand Ye Qinglan's unspoken meanings. It's just that I'm too angry and sad for a while, and I haven't thought of this at all. Now that she was reminded by Ye Qinglan, Cui Wan's sanity immediately returned.
After being silent for a long time, Cui Wan finally opened her mouth and said, "Thank you, Tenth Sister." From the tenth cousin to the tenth sister, although there is only one word missing, it means that Cui Wan truly accepts her.
Ye Qinglan smiled slightly, her eyes were sincere and warm: "What are you doing with me so politely." I can't help with anything, but if you want to talk, I have good ears. ”
Cui Wan looked at the girl in front of her in a daze.
Obviously she was only a twelve-year-old girl, but her eyes were so gentle and calm, it seemed to contain an inexplicable power, which made people forget her age. I just feel that I can confide in her anything......
Ye Qinglan felt that there had been a lot of progress today, and in order not to arouse Cui Wan's suspicion, it was not appropriate to venture at this time.
"By the way, why haven't you seen Sister Qiao all the time?" Ye Qinglan smiled and opened the topic.
As soon as Sister Qiao was mentioned, Cui Wan's maternal love came up: "Sister Qiao was taken to the garden by the nurse to learn to walk." After a pause, he said, "It's not too early, Sister Qiao'er should come back." ”
Ye Qinglan smiled understandingly: "Sister-in-law, it's better to freshen up first before going to see Sister Qiao." I've been here long enough to bother me too much. ”
Cui Wan steadied, squeezed out a smile, and nodded. She looks like a wolf now, and it is really not appropriate to see anyone. can't be seen by Sister Qiao. Otherwise, Sister Qiao will definitely be scared!
Just as he was thinking, footsteps were already heard outside the door.
