Chapter 229: Lonely Soul and Wild Ghost
Faced with Yan Yu's questioning, Xuan Mu was speechless.
He knew that she was right, that he had ruined his body like this, that it was difficult to walk, and that he could guarantee that he could protect her?
But whether she believes him or not, he will not let her stay alone in the country.
He owes Yan Ran too much, and now these guiltes are automatically transferred to Yan Yu, making up for the mistakes he made to Yan Ran in this way.
In the end, Yan Yu still followed Xuanmu to the United States.
In fact, she had almost no choice, if she stayed in the country, her life would be worried, the winter in G City was long, the place where she lived was dark and damp, she had a lot of frostbite on her hands and body, she didn't dare to see a doctor when she was sick, she shivered in the leaky hut at night, and sometimes she was even afraid that she would not wake up after falling asleep.
But if you follow this person, will you be able to get rid of a bad life?
She wasn't sure, but at least Yan Yu could see that he was from a wealthy family, living alone in such a large VIP ward, and with a few bodyguards guarding the door, she could know that he was either rich or expensive.
In terms of the circumstances at that time, Yan Yu may not be able to live a better life if she leaves here, but continuing to stay here will undoubtedly suffer more hardships and pains.
In fact, Yan Yu was unfamiliar with Xuanmu and had only met him a few times.
It is said that he is the grandson of his grandmother's friend, and he is a classmate of his sister, or from a certain Cheng dù, she can see that Xuanmu is extremely fond of her sister.
He looks like this, skinny as wood. The body is withered, and you can know that the death of his sister has no less impact on him than anyone else.
It's just that no matter how deep his love for his sister is, how much he wants to help her, but crossing the ocean to another completely unfamiliar country with someone he has only met a few times seems like a madman's doing, but for Yan Yu at that time, it was some kind of luck hope.
She didn't know if she could fully trust this boy, but now, who could she trust completely?
Even her biological mother disliked her. Sweep her out of the house. How could she expect others to be kind to her!
But even with the worst she could do, she still wanted to get out of here.
Like Xuanmu, this place carries too much pain and suffering of Yan Yu, and it is full of sadness and despair as far as the eye can see.
Thereupon. Desperate to get rid of this qiē. Get out of here. No matter where you go.
After completing the study abroad procedures, she followed Xuanmu to the United States.
Genki was very good to her, even if he traveled all over the world for a long time. But he still mails her postcards when he arrives at every place, just a few words, but it reveals his concern and blessings for her.
Life in the United States was like a fantasy for Yan Yu, who was used to it, and even for a long time, she thought she was just a dream, trembling and afraid of being woken up by the sudden cold water.
It was the first time in her life that she had lived in such a luxurious house, on the seaside with a great view, a detached villa, with a pool and a garden.
Facing the sea, the flowers are blooming, that's what it says!
She no longer has to worry about her livelihood, someone takes care of her three meals a day, someone drives her to and from school, in order to let her integrate into the local study and life, Xuanmu also assigned a Chinese and English teacher to her, and a housekeeper always pays attention to her needs.
In this way, she suddenly changed from a little country girl to a princess in the castle, at first she was uncomfortable, but slowly, she became hypocritical, and began to enjoy this life slowly.
It's just that sometimes she is quiet for too long, and she occasionally feels uneasy.
She knew that all her current qiē was given by Xuanmu because he loved her sister so much, because her sister's death had caused him to turn all his attention to her.
However, how long can he love his sister?
When he gets through the painful period and regains love, will she lose everything in an instant?
With this sense of crisis, she came to her senses, lived hard, studied hard, and hoped that one day even if she left Xuanmu, she would be able to live a decent life.
Maybe it's because of her long-term insecurity and lack of father's love since she was a child, so when Wu Wei appeared, she fell almost instantly.
At that time, she was a law student, Wu Wei was a substitute professor, and a vigorous teacher-student love began.
She graduated this year, she wants to get married, she wants to marry this man.
Before getting married, she wanted to personally bring this man who was going to join hands with her for the rest of her life to meet her grandmother and sister.
Now, eight years later, she is back in town, a place that recurs in her dreams.
How strange it was that the place where she desperately wanted to escape became her haunting dream the moment she successfully escaped.
The qiē about the small town has long been melted into her blood and bones, too deep to forget, and she can't forget it.
She remembers that there are several families living in the courtyard with blue tiles and white walls, and there is a big banyan tree in the yard, and there is an old rocking chair under the big banyan tree.
She still remembers that there was a little yellow dog in front of her house, and in the summer she would always stick out her tongue lazily and look pitifully at them playing in the yard.
From early morning to night, the courtyard is always noisy, the children get together to be naughty and frolic, the housewives are doing manual work while chatting about family life, and the old men occasionally get together to play chess, drink tea, or drink some wine, although life is not rich, but it is also leisurely and comfortable.
Now it is a different scene when I return here, it is autumn, but the big banyan tree has lost its leaves early, bare, the yard is deserted, there is not even a single leaf dropped, it seems to have become a dead tree that has lost its life.
The rocking chair under the tree is still there, but it has long lost its artistic conception.
In the past eight years, in these long years, the people in the compound have changed batch after batch, and even Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang are gone.
More and more people are leaving this place eager to go farther, eager to get more opportunities and wealth.
The originally noisy courtyard is now deserted with only two families left.
Yan Yu looked at the qiē around her, the mottled walls, the moss in the cracks, and the smooth thick stone slabs that had been polished by the years.
The door of their house was closed, the lock was rusty, but she did not dare to open it, and it was not only the memories of her childhood and youth that were dusty, but also all her sad past.
Things are already wrong, so why increase sadness in vain.
After visiting their grandmother, they walked along the winding path to the east of the town, and the three of them were silent along the way, Xuanmu walking in front and she and Wu Wei walking behind.
Wu Wei held Yan Yu's hand tightly, her hand was originally warm, but today for some reason, it seemed that she couldn't hold it warmly.
Eight years ago, she sprinkled her sister's ashes under that tree with her own hands, and she knew that her brother-in-law had always been obsessed with it, and although he had never blamed her for it, he hated her in his heart!
There is no grave, no tombstone, and later she learned that such a person will not be accepted in heaven or hell, so she can only let the seven souls and six spirits wander around and become lonely souls and wild ghosts.
