Shan Lianfang pulled Du Yunke to sit down and speak, and when she saw Jinfei bringing tea, she explained to Jinxiu again: "Hurry up and explain, and wait for the master to bathe and change clothes." ”

"Don't worry, wait for the evening. I still have something to do, Jin Fei, you go to the study and wait. Du Yunke said that the person had stood up, and thought about going to the study to ask Jin Fei about Jinyi alone, but after seeing Ling'er come in and give him a blessing, he ran to Shan Lianfang and whispered.

Seeing the mysterious appearance of the two of them, Du Yunke asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shan Lianfang raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "Oh, it's the second young master of our family who came over." Then he slanted his gaze and reached out to take a sip of the teacup on the table, and said no more.

When Du Yunke heard that his brother was coming, he said to Ling'er: "Why didn't the second young master come over and say it openly, you have to be sneaky." Seeing that Ling'er shrunk her neck, and Shan Lianfang looked like she didn't care about herself, she said to Ling'er, "Why don't you let the second young master in?" ”

Ling'er was trained by Du Yunke, and hurriedly answered the word obediently.

After Du Yunhe came in, he saw Jinxiu at a glance, and his face sank, how could this girl be here, without thinking about it, he heard his brother greet him, so he quickly looked at his brother and said, "Big brother." ”

After the brothers sat down, Du Yunke smiled and said, "You're quite well-informed." ”

Du Yunhe also smiled: "That's, I have already explained, as soon as the eldest brother comes back, let a few people on the door come back to me immediately." As soon as he entered, he didn't see Jinyi, and then asked, "Where is Jinyi?" Why didn't you see her? ”

Du Yunke knew that as soon as his brother came, he would definitely ask about Jinyi, and when he asked at this time, he was in the middle of it.

Shan Lianfang asked and said with a smile: "As soon as my cousin came back, I happily forgot to say, this girl in Jinyi." is really considerate, and a few girls around me are really not as good as her. The more I look at her, the more I like her, and now I can't leave her for a moment. Hey, unfortunately she had a cold two days ago, so I allowed her to rest for a few days. ”

"Jinyi suffers from the cold?" Du Yunhe became nervous, and Du Yunke on the side also frowned and turned his head to look at Shan Lianfang.

"Yes, this girl just has to do everything herself, I asked her not to work so hard, she just didn't listen." Shan Lianfang said regretfully, "Since my cousin left." I don't know if she likes to work or because she thinks too much about someone, she rushes to do any work, and she can't stop it. Now, I look at it like I'm so thin, it's really distressing. Hui'er, didn't you tell you to persuade her to do it? Did you even listen? ”

"The slave and maid are persuaded. But she just didn't listen, and the slave couldn't do anything. Hui'er said on the side.

Du Yunhe didn't know if what she said was true or not, but he still asked, "Have you looked for a doctor?" ”

Jinxiu interjected: "Grandma has already asked the doctor to take a look at her, and the doctor said to let her rest more, so now she is lying on the bed." ”

"Jinyi used to be in my brocade garden, but now she has a cold. I'm worried about her too. He looked at Shan Lianfang and said, "When will it be convenient for my sister-in-law to let me meet her." ”

"The second young master is really sympathetic. Even the previous girls were so caring. Shan Lianfang said with a smile, "If you want to see him, come over when she is well." ”

When the brothers heard her say this, they had no choice but to give up.

After sending off his brother, Du Yunke came to the study. asked Jin Fei: "During my absence, how is grandma treating Jinyi?" ”

Jin Fei has already received explanations from Shan Lianfang and Jinxiu. As soon as he heard the master ask about Jinyi, he quickly lowered his eyes and said, "Well, yes, okay, don't worry, young master." ”

"Grandma really asked the doctor to take a look at Jinyi?" After all, Du Yunke was a little worried.

"Young master, don't worry, I've asked the doctor to take a look." Jin Fei replied.

When Du Yunke heard Jin Fei say this, he was relieved.

At this time, Jinyi was in a room full of miscellaneous items, sitting on the ground with his knees crossed, thinking about Du Yunke with his head down. She wanted to see him right now, but she knew it wasn't what it used to be.

As soon as Shan Lianfang heard that Du Yunke was back, he sent the brocade clothes here.

When he came late, Jinxiu brought the rice, put the bowl on the ground and said, "The master is back, grandma is kind, give you a bowl of good rice, hurry up and eat!" Then he admonished, "You slut, don't think that the master is back, you have a backer, I will sue you!" Grandma said it, if you dare to say a word more when you see you, you will pick your skin! Did you hear that? After saying that, he snorted, turned and walked out of the room.

During this time, she was painfully tormented by the humiliation of Shan Lianfang and Jinxiu, and was shrouded in the shadow of fear all day long, and Jinyi only felt as if she was living in hell. Picking up the bowl, the tears still didn't hold back and slipped down.

remembered that he accompanied Du Yunke to drink on the Shixiang Building, how beautiful it was at that time; Sitting opposite him in Suzhou, although it is a few small dishes, it is so warm and comfortable. And now, there will be no more self by his side. What is she thinking, she blames herself for picking up the rice with chopsticks, doesn't she say that as long as she can see him from afar, she is content? So what else to be greedy for? I don't want to think about it anymore, I just let the tears fall silently into the bowl, and keep pouring the rice with tears into my mouth.

When night fell and her body was shrouded in darkness, she thought of her family again. Dad, mother, brother, it's the end of the year again, I really want to keep the New Year with you and welcome the spring together. Dad, I really want to lean on your knees and listen to you talk about the principles of life, just like I used to sit around your knees with my second brother; Mother, when I was a child, I was ignorant and didn't like to be a female celebrity, but now I really want to embroider a dress for you; Big brother, if you are still here, you should have been married by now, and the little nephew born to your sister-in-law is about to go to private school; Second brother, I really want to listen to you play the song "Water Hibiscus" again, I haven't had time to let you teach me the crickets you can make.

Thinking of the scene when the mother and the second brother followed the nurse to get into the car and leave the house, they stood in place for a long time to see themselves, and couldn't help but cry. The second brother waved his hand to go home quickly, but who knew that it was the last word he said to himself. Why did you leave them that day, and why...... The tears of remorse flow endlessly, but it's a pity how can time be turned back.

A few days later, Jinyi saw that the door was opened, panicked, raised his eyes and saw Jinxiu walk in, threw a clean dress at his feet and said, "Hurry up and change your clothes and go out with me." ”

Shan Lianfang was very tired of Du Yunhe frequently coming over to ask about Jinyi, so she asked Jinxiu to take the clothes over, and let Jinyi change and go out to see him.

After the brocade changed clothes, it came out with the brocade. When she came to the hall, she saw the person she had been missing for a long time, and his eyes were full of affection and pity that was difficult to confess to herself, only to see him look at his lips moving slightly.

Du Yunhe grabbed the brocade clothes and looked at the person in front of him, how could he be like this, how could he be so thin and haggard? He looked back at Shan Lianfang and asked, "It's only been more than half a month since the eldest brother left, why did Jinyi become like this?" ”

"She suffered from the cold and didn't eat, and her face was naturally not good, so she can blame others?" Shan Lianfang said angrily, "For my cousin's sake, I kindly let you see her, you don't want to get an inch!" She's my girl now, and she can't teach me a lesson, right? ”

"You ......"

"Second Young Master, don't be like this." Jinyi hurriedly grabbed Du Yunhe, and caught a glimpse of the admonishing eyes in Shan Lianfang and Jinxiu's eyes, so he said to Du Yunhe, "Second young master, don't be like this, it's not good for me, I shouldn't be sick." ”

Looking at the haggard brocade clothes, Du Yunke's heart was like a knife, but as Shan Lianfang said, Jinyi is now her girl, and what qualifications do others have to speak. In the current situation, he didn't want to persuade his brother, and he couldn't blame Shan Lianfang, so he reluctantly looked at the brocade clothes and brushed his sleeves out.

"Big Brother ......"

"Cousin, where are you going?"

When he came to Rongshu Courtyard, Du Yunke asked Mrs. Du for peace and said: "Mrs., Lian Fang and I have become married, and we will definitely love her more in the future, and we will love each other and grow old." I just beg my wife not to let Jinyi stay in Ninghui Courtyard anymore, doesn't my wife hope that I won't see her again in the future? Why keep her on my side so that I can see her every day. ”

"Since you promised to cut her off, then even if you meet every day, you don't have to care, right?" Mrs. Du said nonchalantly, "Besides, Fang'er said that she likes that girl, doesn't your wife like a girl, and she can't even let that girl serve you?" ”

"Madam, you know what I have in mind, why can't you agree to me? I will never see her in the future, isn't this good for me and Lian Fang? In the future, I will not take another concubine, and I will never abandon Fang'er, and I hope that my wife will be fulfilled! ”

"You said that you would cut her off, and now keep her, isn't it time to test your words?" Mrs. Du said, "Okay, don't say any more, I have my own plans, and you have begged me three times and twice, which makes me even more unhappy." ”

After going back helplessly, Du Yunke plunged into the study, Shan Lianfang asked Hui'er to invite him to eat many times, but in vain, listening to Hui'er's return, Shan Lianfang was extremely angry, came to the study in person, saw Du Yunke sitting and drinking, and said angrily: "Cousin, what's the matter with you?" That's it as soon as I come back. I've been waiting at home for you to come back, do I want to see you like this? She saw that Du Yunke didn't even raise his eyes, turned a deaf ear to his words, turned a blind eye to his arrival, couldn't bear it anymore, snatched the wine jug from his hand, raised his hand and smashed it.

"You!" Du Yunke stood up suddenly, raised his hand and was about to hit her, but he finally stopped, he had never beaten a woman.

"You're going to hit me?" Shan Lianfang said aggrievedly, "Okay, you fight, you fight!" She raised her chin and leaned in front of Du Yunke and said, "You don't want to see me for that little slut, okay, you just beat me to death!" ”

Du Yunke stared at her and said angrily, "You...... What do you call her? ”
