The window was closed, and Yu had to vaguely see Lu Chengxuan's blurred silhouette and shadow reflected in the window through the window sash, the candle flame in the room was burning, and Qinglian's laughter could be heard from time to time.

In such a miserable situation, he could still laugh, and Yu only felt that he was depressed in his heart.

When Tong Li met in the courtyard, Lu Chengxuan's body was so thin, her hands were frostbitten, her face was pale, and the reddish eyes when she called her aunt lingered in her mind for a long time, which stung Yu's heart even more, making her sleepless, so she thought about coming and seeing.

But when he really arrived at Lu Chengxuan's yard, Yu didn't dare to step in, didn't dare to face Lu Chengxuan's eyes, and didn't dare to face the alienation in her eyes.

Cheng Xuan may really understand, understand her own situation and identity, and she is also dead set on her mother.

This has always been what Yu has been thinking, she can't wait to forget Lu Chengxuan's existence forever, and she hopes that Lu Chengxuan will disappear in front of her eyes, but now she has done it, but she is not relieved at all......

Ru Su's voice pulled back Yu's thoughts, and after stopping under the corridor for a long time, she sighed helplessly, "It's me who can't protect her with a small mouth, and she should resent me, but the reality is so cruel, if you want to live, you can only rely on yourself, no one can protect her for the rest of her life, and now, since she understands, it's the best." ”

"What about you...... Are you not going to go? Ru Su asked cautiously.

"Let's go back."

Putting the porcelain jar in his hand under the window, Yu Shi withdrew his gaze and his voice was very desolate.

"If I go again, I will give her hope again, which is more cruel than leaving her hopeless all the time."

The real despair is not for someone who has never seen hope, but for this person who clearly gives you hope, but ruthlessly kills it with his own hands, which is the deadliest.

Ru Su nodded and helped Yu to leave.

Lu Chengxuan in the room suddenly raised her head and looked at the window with a frown.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Qinglian noticed Lu Chengxuan's abnormality, followed her gaze and looked over, through the window, there was white snow outside, and other than that, she couldn't see anything else, but Lu Chengxuan could see it?

Lu Chengxuan shook his head, his voice was a little tired, "It's nothing, Xu is...... I'm too careful. ”

"It's not too early, you can rest early after you finish the work in hand, tomorrow we have to go to the old lady to say goodbye."

——

It was windy last night.

A lot of snow was blown off the trunks of the trees, and all of them were piled up outside the door.

When they opened the door in the morning, Lu Chengxuan and Qinglian took some effort to open the door head-on, and the cold wind outside blew on their faces, which was in stark contrast to the warm charcoal fire that had just been filled with charcoal in the house.

Qinglian subconsciously shrunk her neck, seeing that Lu Chengxuan's face did not move, and constantly persuaded herself not to be so unstable, she simply followed behind Lu Chengxuan, and her body stood tall to deal with the wind and snow in front of her, "Hey, Miss, look ......"

Qinglian pointed to the porcelain jar on the window and exclaimed, and Lu Chengxuan also took it with a puzzled look.

"Ah, miss, this seems to be chilblain cream, the slave maid saw it in my aunt's yard when I was young last year...... Could it be that this is Auntie......" Qinglian's eyes were surprised, "Auntie is still thinking about your young lady." ”

But just halfway through this, seeing the light breeze on Lu Chengxuan's face, Qinglian hurriedly shushed, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, she just lowered her head and murmured strangely, "But if this is sent by my aunt, why didn't my aunt come into the house." ”

"It seems that my aunt cares or doesn't care about Miss."

Lu Chengxuan didn't say much, and silently took the chilblain cream into her arms, "No matter who it is, since you haven't shown up, you hope we don't know, let's treat it as if we don't know, don't make a noise, just do our own thing." ”

"Go fetch some water to freshen up, and then come with me to say hello to the old lady."

"Ah......?" Qinglian's yawn to her mouth was frightened, "Miss, it's only too late now, even if we have to go to greet the old lady, we don't have to get up so early." ”

Qinglian bit her lip and looked at Lu Chengxuan with some concern, "I'm afraid that even if the young lady goes, the old lady hasn't gotten up yet!" ”

She was useless last night, she originally wanted to accompany Lu Chengxuan to make brocade shoes, but she was sleepy and fell asleep first, and when she woke up, the candle flame on the candlestick had burned out, I am afraid that Lu Chengxuan had only slept for an hour, and now a pair of black eyes are full of red blood, but she still has to get up so early, the wind cold and chilblains are not yet good, Qinglian is worried that Lu Chengxuan will fall ill again.

Obviously, they are all the same age, but Lu Chengxuan, who is so forbearing, can't help but feel distressed.

"Please Ann is going to go, but not now, you follow me to the small kitchen, let's go to eat first, and then go to Hello when we are ready, the time is appropriate." Speaking kung fu, Lu Chengxuan already had a plan in his heart.

The old lady rewarded her with a lot of things, in addition to the winter things, she also brought a lot of food, including pumpkins.

"That'...... What do we do? Qinglian flattened her mouth, who doesn't know that Master Lu is filial, Lu Zhou's small kitchen is the best in the house, even if Lu Chengxuan is skilled, but he can't turn over the tricks, I'm afraid that in the end, he got up so early in vain, but people don't appreciate it.

"Boiled porridge, pumpkin millet porridge."

Lu Chengxuan picked the pumpkin and washed it finely, handed over the appropriate amount of rice to Qinglian's hand and told her to wash it, and then patiently explained, "It's cold in winter, and the charcoal fire burning in the house is very dry, which is more likely to make people lose their appetite, pumpkin can warm the body, moisten the lungs, nourish the spleen, and promote appetite. ”

"Sometimes, it's not about how good the thing is to give it away, but to see if the thing needs to be sent to the object, if she doesn't need it, it's worth a thousand gold, I'm afraid it's just a little more, but if she needs it, it's even a grain of rice, an inch of step, it's a priceless treasure."

Lu Chengxuan deliberately paused and looked at Qinglian seriously, "Got it?" ”

Qinglian was frightened by Lu Chengxuan's attitude, and nodded weakly, "The slave understands." ”

"My life in this house is not easy, but you are more difficult than me, what you have taught you, you must remember it carefully, whether it is the craftsmanship or what I say, so that even if I am not there one day in the future, you can still protect yourself, if you have some means, you can also help Aunt Yu and Chengyu."

Lu Chengxuan's attitude was particularly solemn.

The Lu family is not a place for her to stay for a long time, but a place to settle down for a while, and she is bound to leave one day, if she can take Qinglian away, if not...... The rest of her life is up to her.

People can only live on their own.
