Chapter 238: Shocked

And how to elope is actually not very difficult. Although he was only a mortal, he could ask the monsters in the ghost town to help bring her out of the Xie Mansion. Having seen those magical spells, he knew that this was just a gesture for them.

But even if these can be determined, the last and most critical point is the most uncertain - he can't be sure what Xie Yuqing's mind is.

He naturally knew that the two were in love, and if Ming Media was marrying, he believed that she would definitely agree! But what about elopement?

This is not the legendary chivalrous story in those books, for example, the chivalrous man who walked the rivers and lakes saved a lady from the thief, and everyone was also chic and willing to abandon everything to follow his footsteps and enjoy the happiness of wandering the world, which is too beautiful and illusory to leave a lot of illusions.

The reality is that there are serious issues that have to be considered, including food, clothing, shelter, and psychological barriers.

Not everyone is willing to disobey the loved ones who raised them, leave the beautiful life of not worrying about food and clothing, go to live a hard life of eating and sleeping, and worry about hunting down.

And the more critical point is that he is really willing to let Xie Yuqing, who should be everyone's best girl, give up his luxurious life and suffer for him? To watch her white fingers grow cocoons as rough as those country peasant women because of him? To watch her change from the original big fish and meat to pickle porridge? To watch her take off her brocade dress and replace it with a coarse linen dress?

How could he be willing to do it......

The elopement was a good idea, but it was so difficult that for several days he was not prepared for even a temptation.

So for the time being, he can only read every day to numb himself, and he doesn't stop from morning to night, except for going out every day to help people write and earn some living expenses, he basically doesn't want to go out for half a step!

It's just that even so, the thoughts in his head are so complicated, and the final effect of reading is only half the effort, which makes him feel a lot more depressed, and even to the point that as soon as he picks up the book, his mind will subconsciously recall Miss Xie's voice and smile.

"Could this be lovesickness?" He suddenly laughed at himself, shook his head slightly, and sighed at his incompetence and inferiority.

But things did take an unexpected turn of events very quickly, even if it was something he had never expected.

In the afternoon of this day, he sat under the shed of his stall, slowly writing a letter to an old man in front of him to his son who was far away on the frontier.

Now that autumn has officially begun, the weather is far less hot than in summer, and a gentle breeze along the road is also a little cool. Su Yulong has also changed into a cyan robe, and now he has more scholarly elegance than before, not to mention that since he awakened righteousness, his temperament gives people a little more elegant and decent atmosphere, which will inexplicably make people believe and admire, and subconsciously want to get closer.

This is indeed a good thing, after all, because of this, the business of his stall is much better than that of other scholars. Although his handwriting is not very good, those old people just recognize his stall one by one, and they take the initiative to find him when they need to write letters, saying that his handwriting looks very comfortable......

Those old people who can't read words can't understand how well they write, but they can also vaguely feel the unique heart of the person who writes these words.

When Su Yulong was writing a letter for this old man, there were two men who seemed to be domestic servants in the big family, waiting for a little bored and talking, from yesterday's kitchen lady buying vegetables and secretly hiding a few pennies to her own children learning to memorize which poems, it was probably some after-dinner conversation.

At first, Su Yulong didn't listen carefully, until he vaguely heard them talking about the "Xie family", he was stunned, the speed of writing slowed down slightly, and he paid attention to it.

It just made him even more uneasy that what the two men said was not a good thing.

"Then the Xie family had this incident last night, it's really unlucky......"

"Also, it is said that the family affairs are almost finished, who knows that the person is gone, and I don't know how Master Xie should feel now......"

Just as the two of them were talking casually, they saw that Su Yulong suddenly stopped writing, stared at them tightly, and asked nervously, "Two, I don't know what you are talking about?" ”

"Oh? Mr. Su still doesn't know? The two subordinates were naturally respectful to this kind of scholar, and immediately replied after a little thought, "Miss Xie hanged herself last night, it is said that she didn't want to marry into the Wu family, and she ......couldn't think about it for a while."

"What!"

Su Yulong's face turned pale, and his heart felt like he was being tightly grasped by a pair of invisible big hands, and the brush in his hand rolled to the ground at some point, and he didn't care about his clothes at all.

He never thought that Xie Yuqing would be so resolute that he would even hang himself to resist this marriage!

If he had known this, he would have hesitated any longer, and would have asked the monsters in the ghost town to rescue her immediately!

Naturally, he couldn't write, he confessed, he couldn't even take care of the stall, ignoring the strange eyes of others, he dropped the pen and paper in a panic, and staggered in the direction of Xie Fu.

When he ran to the door of Xie's mansion, he could already see white cloth and white lanterns hanging on the wall of the door from a distance, as if he was about to prepare for a funeral.

In this way, what those two people said was indeed not a lie to him, Xie Yuqing had really hanged herself......

"Why are you so stupid......"

He stood at the door in a daze, looking at the somewhat deserted scene of Xie Mansion, the pain in his heart was already on his face, and he couldn't help himself for a while, and cried bitterly under the gaze of many passers-by.

"Where did you come from, you dare to cry in front of our Xie family's mansion!"

When some of the servants saw that there was still trouble in front of the house gate on this day of mourning, they immediately became angry and took sticks to drive him away from the door. But he refused to move, and allowed them to beat him all over his body, until a soldier who knew him passed by and saw this scene, and hurried forward to say and stop him......

By the time Su Yulong came out of the hospital and returned home, it was already night.

Only this time, he no longer had the urge to read, and the whole person seemed to have lost his soul, stunned like a piece of wood.

He began to hate himself a little. Hate yourself for being indecisive during this time.

If she had made up her mind to take her to elope away and fly away, then she would at least be able to survive, and she would not be separated from yin and yang from now on......
