In the early morning, the garden is filled with fresh and peaceful air, birds chirping, or singing in the branches, or pecking on the ground, or washing in the puddle, and the flowers slowly raise their heads to welcome the morning glow, everything is so beautiful and vibrant.

Ruojun was weakly dressed in a coat, sitting in front of the window and watching all this, her heart was blank, she had become the real daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, Zhou Ruian's wife, I don't know how long she had been sitting, the people began to get up and sweep the courtyard, ready to serve the master, Ruian also slowly woke up, touched the bed next to her was empty, turned over, and saw Ruojun sitting by the window, she was draped in satin-like long hair, her face reflected the first glow of the sun, no fat powder, beautiful and refined like a fairy outside the world.

"Ruojun." He called her, "Ruojun ......"

She sat there like an ice sculpture, as if waiting for the sun to melt her.

More than three months have passed, and Mei Ruojun still recalls that snowy night, Ruikang's painful wail in the courtyard, her heart is broken, and everything is over. He took her soul with him, and she was more than half dead. She is always in a state of distraction, although she does everything that a wife should do, but she can no longer concentrate, and often forgets what she wants to say in the second half of the sentence, or sheds tears inexplicably, or freezes halfway through walking.

Ryan got up, took a coat, limped to the window, draped over her shoulders, her gaze slowly withdrawn, and looked up at him, her husband, a crippled, gentle, loving husband, she rested her head on his stomach and let out a long sigh.

"Do you hate me?" He asked.

She shook her head, a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth, "You've asked countless times." ”

"yes, I really don't know how I got so beastly that day? I'm the one who ruined everything......"

"Don't say it, Ryan, it's all over, it's all over, it's all over.......," she hugged him in fear, and said it over and over again with a trembling mouth, as if she was chanting a scripture, forcing herself to forget the wail of Ruikang in the snowy night.

"Okay," he caressed her cheek, pulled her up, and said, "It's still early, go back to bed." ”

She obediently followed him back to the bed, he put her cold hands and feet on his body, carefully cared for her, a smile slightly raised at the corner of her mouth, buried her head in his chest, and wrapped her around his waist.

He kissed her, he loved her too much, even if she lost a hair, he would feel heartache, she responded to his kiss, maybe because of the fact that she was husband and wife, she was more attached to him, she accepted her fate again, she couldn't escape the arrangement of fate after all, Ruikang will only exist in her dreams and memories from now on.

"I will definitely take good care of you and protect you in the future, and I will not be as dull as before." He whispered in her ear.

"Ryan, forgive me, I'm not a good wife, I don't deserve your love."

"Don't say that, I'm not good, you want to be with me, I appreciate you."

She gently touched his cheek and gave him a kiss lovingly.

There was a knock at the door, and Xunmei's immature and sweet voice came: "Sister Ruojun, Brother Ryan, if you don't get up again, the sun will shine on your buttocks." ”

Ryan and Ruojun looked at each other and smiled, and Ryan said, "Xunmei is such a cute child. ”

Ruojun nodded, Ryan was a little shy, looked at her hesitantly, and asked softly in her ear, "I want to ...... I think...... We also gave birth to a daughter who is as beautiful as Xunmei. ”

Ruojun turned his head sideways to look at him, his face was hot for a while, his face was red, and he nodded softly, and Ryan hugged her tightly into his arms excitedly and gratefully: "Ruojun, really? Are you willing to have a baby for me? ”

"It's a matter of course......" she smiled with a blushing face.

"Oh, Ruojun, you've treated me so well." He looked at her humbly and excitedly, with a pilgrimage on his face.

He made her feel distressed, sad, she couldn't let go of him, he was like a pet attached to his master, and she loved him deeply, this love was not the electric passion between men and women, but she would not leave him, and she could not leave him.

Just after breakfast, Cheng Jiawei and Cheng Jiaqi brothers and sisters hurriedly came to Zhou's house, and after saying hello, Cheng Jiaqi hurriedly said: "One of our classmates saw Ruikang in Shanghai. ”

"Shanghai?" The Zhou family stood up in unison.

"Yes, this classmate attended your family's plum poetry party last year, and she said that she saw Ruikang and Wakari together. She had seen Ruoli at the poetry meeting, and she was deeply impressed by her, and she would not admit her mistake. ”

"What? Wakapear? Ruojun's eyes widened, and he couldn't suppress his trembling voice.

"That's right, that classmate said, Xu Manlin was also present, the three of them were shopping on Nanjing Road, and there were a few bodyguards behind them." Cheng added.

"I'm not surprised that Ruikang is in Shanghai, and I'm not surprised that Xu Manlin is by his side, but how Ruoli could be with them is really puzzling. Moreover, and ......" Jiaqi looked at Ruojun, a little slurred, and stopped talking.

"And the classmate said that she saw Wakari dressed very fashionable and charming, like a courtesan." Cheng Jiawei hurriedly said, Jiaqi gave him a look again and again, and gently pushed him.

Ruojun shook his head again and again: "No, it's impossible, Ruoli has a proud personality, is smart and lively, how can she become a courtesan?" Maybe she recognized the wrong person. ”

Jiaqi hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "Yes, yes, she is not familiar with Ruoli, how can she recognize it at a glance." ”

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly asked, "How does Ruikang look?" Have you lost weight? Is he doing well? Is it enough money? ”

"Auntie, don't worry, I think Ruikang is fine, otherwise where would I have the leisure to go shopping, and besides, there is Manlin by my side to take care of it, don't worry."

Mrs. Zhou took Jiaqi's hand and walked aside, looked at her for a long time, touched her curly hair lovingly, and said, "Ahem, you are really a good boy, kind and careful, generous and gentle, to be honest, you have always been the best choice for my daughter-in-law, but ...... Ahem..... Ruikang is really unlucky. ”

As soon as she said this, a trace of hidden pain in Jiaqi's heart was pulled out again, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but soon she smiled cheerfully and said: "Aunt Zhou, don't say that, Manlin is also a very good girl, you will know it when you see it." ”

Mrs. Zhou nodded: "I've seen it, it's good, it's good, but her family background is too prominent, I'm afraid that Ruikang will be uncomfortable in the future." ”

"No, Man Lin loves Ruikang very much, for his sake everywhere, aunt, marriage is still to be happy in the end, since Ruikang has brought her back to see you, it means that Ruikang also likes her very much, you don't have to worry." Her warm smile can always give people strength and soothe the hearts of others, Mrs. Zhou sighed, looked at her lovingly, and held her hand affectionately.

After a while, Jiaqi deliberately pulled Ruojun down in the garden, she looked Ruojun up and down, and said with a smile: "Although it still looks sullen, her complexion is better." ”

"Thank you for coming to tell us the news. Finally, Ruikang and Wakari have their whereabouts. Ruojun pulled her, and the two sat on the bench.

"Ruikang is so willful, I don't understand why he has to leave home again and again, even if the man is ambitious, there is no need to say goodbye without saying goodbye like this, and this time even me and Jiawei didn't say hello." She frowned, puzzled, and shook her head: "Ruojun, is there any conflict between Ruikang and this family?" ”

Mei Ruojun's face turned pale, the sorrow in her eyes covered her eyes with a layer of mist, her hands tightly clutched her handkerchief, and she looked at Jiaqi with some pleading, hoping that she would not ask any more.

Jiaqi stared at her melancholy eyes and slightly trembling lips, she was puzzled, but she suddenly understood, gently covered her mouth, and stared at the boss, yes, everything is clear, it is all logical, and it is explained clearly, when Ruikang insisted on withdrawing from the marriage at his own house, the sweetheart mentioned in strict words was none other than Mei Ruojun in front of him, how stupid he was, he never thought of this.

Mei Ruojun's beauty is dusty, delicate, and pitiful, even women can't resist, not to mention Ruikang, a man who has always been a little heroic, he fell in love with Mei Ruojun, he fell in love with his sister-in-law, so he struggled so painfully.

"It's you...... Ruojun, it's you, and his sweetheart is you......" Jiaqi couldn't control her surprise at all, and her tone changed.

Ruojun stood up, staggered to a big tree beside her, and held on to the trunk, she couldn't deny that she couldn't lie to Jiaqi.

"Oh my God, poor Ruikang, poor you, poor Brother Ryan, poor Manlin, poor Ruoli......" She sighed heavily, the tip of her nose was sore, and she looked up at the sky, but she still couldn't stop the two tears from slipping down, and her voice trembled: "Poor me......"

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Ruojun felt very uncomfortable, the tragedies of these people that Jiaqi just mentioned were all caused by their relationship with Ruikang, they originally naively thought that the hellfire would only torment the two of them, but they didn't expect that this raging fire would burn all the people around them.

Jiaqi was silent for a long time, she was too shocked, but seeing Ruojun so sad, she also felt the heart-rending pain that she and Ruikang suffered, they loved each other and couldn't stay together, he could only choose to leave, and she could only choose to accept her fate, Jiaqi sighed lightly, shook her head, stepped forward and took Ruojun's hand, and said: "Don't be sad, I finally understand now, why Ruikang is always sad, and why are you always pale and haggard, tell me, you love him too, don't you?" ”

Ruojun raised her eyelashes, her eyes had already soaked in a pool of water, and she kept pouting two small lips, and Jiaqi hugged her distressedly: "Poor you, poor you...... Poor me......"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, I think you and Ruikang would be a very happy couple."

"Don't be stupid, I knew him before you. In fact, when we went to your house for the first time that day, and he pulled you to talk alone in the courtyard, I felt a little that you don't know how pleasing and envious you are standing together. At that time, his eyes flashed with strange lights from time to time, but everyone didn't think about it. ”

"It's all over, I'm already his veritable sister-in-law." Ruojun shook her head, not wanting to hear Jiaqi mention the past again, because everything was in her heart, and it was repeated in her mind all the time.

"Yes, I believe that you have experienced countless struggles, and since Ruikang ran away from home, he must have broken up with the second elder of the Zhou family. His temperament is like this, he can't bear it or hide it, he loves you and will definitely show it. Your relationship is really bitter to him. ”

"It's me who is not good. From the very beginning, I was not qualified to love him at all, and I allowed my feelings to spread beyond control. I deserved to die, but he saved me again. She let out a long sigh.

"Dead? Have you ever tried to die? Jiaqi pulled her in fear and kept shaking her head: "Why are you so stupid?" ”

"I don't know what else can protect him and how to be freed except to die?"

"Ahem. Since ancient times, you have been amorous and hateful, and you are also a lover. Jiaqi sighed: "Forget it, Ruojun, don't be too yourself, he has Xu Manlin now, let's bless them." ”

"Jiaqi, you are so good, you make me feel so small, so selfish, so greedy, I really hope Ruikang can be with you." Ruojun said sincerely.

Jiaqi raised her head and looked at the sky, smiled and shook her head: "As long as Ruikang is happy." Ah, by the way, I'm going to Shanghai. ”

"What? You're going to Shanghai? ”

"Well, I'll go to Zhu Yafen first, oh it's that female classmate, live there for a while, firstly, I haven't seen her for a long time, and secondly, I may be able to meet Ruikang or even Ruoli."

Ruojun looked at her deeply, and a sour, envious, distressed, understanding, and blessed smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Jiaqi, your love for him is no less than mine, but your love is so deep that I admire it, go ahead, go to him, he doesn't love Xu Manlin, and I have become his nightmare, find him, love him, be with him, and give him happiness." ”

"Ruojun ......"

"If you can also find Wakari, please tell her: no matter when and where, the Mei family's compound is her home, and I will always be her sister as long as she wants."

"Good. You and Big Brother Ryan should also take care. I think that since fate is so arranged, it must have its deep meaning. ”

"Don't worry, I've resigned myself to my fate. For better or worse, I'll take it safely. Ruojun smiled sadly, looking at the clouds in the sky, and the despair in his heart kept spreading.

Her sad look made Jiaqi feel very sad, and she grabbed her shoulders and wanted to give her some strength. Two beautiful and kind women who love the same man snuggle together.
