Hearing Yuan Chao say that there was no one in the house, Qing Huan said anxiously: "After eating, he said that he would go back to the house to sleep, and then he never came out." “

"Madame, don't worry, the son should not be able to go far, Hengzhu is in this village, just look for it."

The three of them didn't eat dinner, so they hurried to the village to find someone while it was still dark, and sure enough, they found him at Uncle Chen's house.

When I found him, I was still drinking at Uncle Chen's house. Uncle Chen didn't know where he got a big jar of wine, and he was left there to drink.

Qing Huan was very angry, and stepped forward to snatch his wine bowl: "Yesterday's wine hasn't woken up yet, why are you drinking it again?" ”

Li Yan was drunk again at this time, and he didn't know who she was, so he just came over to grab the wine bowl. I couldn't stand on one foot at all, and I just fell to the ground. Yuan Chao helped him up, but didn't say a word.

Li Yan shouted in his mouth to Qinghuan to return his wine bowl. Seeing him like this, Qing Huan directly smashed the bowl: "Look at what you look like now." ”

Li Yan doesn't care if she is angry or not, she still wants to drink and ask for a wine bowl.

Qing Huan was so angry that he turned around and left. Ah Gu hurriedly followed, while Yuan Chao carried Li Yan on his back and walked at the rear.

When he went back to dinner, Qing Huan said to Yuan Chao: "He can't listen to others now, but you should persuade more." ”

"My subordinates have been persuading. But Childe didn't listen to his subordinates either. ”

Qing Huan put down the bowl and asked rhetorically, "Is it possible to see that he has always been like this?" ”

Yuan Chao defended Li Yan and said: "Madam, the son is not happy. ”

Qing Huan even put down his chopsticks and said, "Is my heart happy?" He tosses everyone if he doesn't have a good time. ”

Yuan Chao didn't continue to eat, but stood up, lowered his head and said, "Leave the matter of the son to me, and the lady doesn't have to worry about it." ”

Seeing him protect Li Yan like this, Qing Huan felt a headache. Under the pretext that he was full, he went back to the house.

Ah Gu followed in and persuaded her: "Madam, the son is just drinking, and Brother Yuan will take care of it." ”

The words "you don't understand" came to his lips, but he was swallowed and replaced with other words, "You go to dinner, I want to be quiet." ”

Qing Huan was alone in the house.

How did Agu know that such a Li Yan was not the one Qing Huan loved.

Because of this love, she was able to follow all the way to this place. Seeing that he was low and had a tendency to drink to get by, how could he not be sad and sad.

Qing Huan doesn't mind if one leg is wasted, as long as he cheers up. After suffering so much, Qing Huan himself was not depressed, but has been bravely facing it.

On the one hand, he wants to give him an example so that he can cheer up, and on the other hand, he thinks that he is strong and can have hope when he stabilizes his life.

But after so long, Li Yan did not go in the direction she expected, but became more and more depressed, more and more decadent, and more and more disappointed Qinghuan.

Qing Huan was afraid, afraid that if he continued like this, his love for him would slowly disappear. If there is no emotional support, she can't think about how she will live in the future.

So she was scared and anxious in her heart, and she also hated that iron could not become steel.

originally wanted to let Yuan Chao help persuade him, but who knew that Yuan Chao was dedicated to protecting Li Yan, which made Qing Huan feel particularly isolated and helpless. There were too many emotions in my heart, and I felt out of strength just by sitting, so Qing Huan lay on the bed with his clothes, closed his eyes, and thought wildly, and even ignored her when Agu came in later, and spent the whole night like this.

Because he didn't sleep much all night, Qinghuan couldn't get up at all, and he had a splitting headache, so he could only lie in bed. Agu can't serve her all the time, after all, there are still things to do at home.

Qing Huan was lying on the bed, thinking about making up for sleep and getting up quickly. It didn't seem to have slept for long, and he was woken up by Agu.

Ah Gu said in a somewhat urgent tone: "Madame, wake up, Childe is going out again." ”

Hearing this news made Qing Huan smile bitterly, and sure enough, "Whatever he does, let him drink it." With that, he turned to his side and went back to sleep.

When Yuan Chao came back in the evening, he didn't see Li Yan, asked Ah Gu, and ran to Uncle Chen's house alone to see. Seeing that he had nothing else to do but get drunk, he came back.

Qing Huan reluctantly got up to eat, and when he saw him coming back alone, he knew what the situation was, so he didn't ask.

Yuan Chao took the initiative to say to Qing Huan: "Madam, the son is at Uncle Chen's house, except for being drunk, everything else is fine." So I let my son stay at Uncle Chen's house. ”

Qing Huan hummed and didn't say anything else.

After several days like this, Uncle Chen sent the drunken Li Yan back. Qing Huan didn't want to pay attention to him and didn't come forward to receive him. Ah Gu couldn't ignore it, so he stepped forward to help Li Yan and sent him into his room.

At this time, Qing Huan stopped Uncle Chen, who was about to leave: "Uncle Chen, where did you get so much wine for him to drink?" ”

Uncle Chen smiled and said, "I don't know, Li Xianggong gave me money and asked me to buy him wine to drink, and I went to buy it everywhere." ”

Qing Huan asked in surprise: "Where did he get the money?" ”

"I don't know about that." After speaking, Uncle Chen said goodbye and left. Qing Huan politely sent him out, then walked into the house and asked Li Yan, who was full of alcohol, "Where did you get the money to buy wine to drink?" “

Li Yan actually understood, and muttered, "Yuan ....... Yuan Chao gave it." ”

Qing Huan flicked his hand and went out of the door, and went directly to the field behind the house to find Yuan Chao.

A few hundred meters behind the house, there is a place that is more suitable for growing vegetables, and Yuan Chao spends all his time taking care of this land. Soon, Qing Huan found Yuan Chao, who was working in the fields, and questioned him; "Why did you give him money to buy alcohol?"

When Yuan Chao saw her coming, he straightened up, bent down and replied, "The son wants money, and his subordinates can't help but give it." ”

Qing Huan was speechless with anger, turned around and went home, found Agu, and said to her: "In the future, when they ask you for money, you don't give it anything, just say that the money is with me, and come to me if you want money." Agu knew what was going on and nodded obediently.

Later, Li Yan went a few more times, perhaps because the wine he bought before was finished. came back and stayed honestly for two days, pestering Agu to ask for money several times. Ah Gu was so entangled that he couldn't help it, so he complained to Qinghuan: "Madam, my son pesters me for money all day long." What do you say? ”

"You asked him to come to me."

"I told my son, the money is all with Madame. Childe refused to come to Madame, and still pestered me. ”

"I'll go talk to him."

When she went to the room, Li Yan was rummaging through the boxes and cabinets looking for money, and when she saw Qing Huan coming in, she stood against the side of the bed like a child who had done something wrong, looking at Qing Huan very pitifully.

"If you want money and don't dare to come to me, do you want me to send it to you?"

"Did the lady send me money?"

Qing Huan said angrily: "I still want money to drink, don't dream." I'm just here to tell you that Agu doesn't have it, and the money is all with me. But I won't give it to you. “

The smile on Li Yan's face disappeared, and he looked at her pitifully. Qing Huan didn't want to look at his eyes, and said angrily: "Look at yourself, what you look like." Everyone works hard every day to support the family, and you know that drinking, are you still a man? “

Li Yan's expression did not change, he still looked at her pitifully, and whispered, "Madame, give me some money." “

Qing Huan hated it, and left without looking back, no matter what he was doing.

In the afternoon, when Qinghuan and Agu went to the creek to make clothes, they said: "I scolded him, but he didn't listen at all, and he still wanted money." ”

"I can't drink anymore if I don't have money, maybe it will stop in two days."

"That's all I can hope for now." Qing Huan replied while washing his clothes.

After washing his clothes and going home, Qinghuan was stunned as soon as he entered the house. Her and Agu's room was turned into a mess, and Qing Huan hurried to see where the money was hidden. Sure enough, there was a shortage of five taels of silver.

Qing Huan was so angry that he smashed everything, and Ah Gu comforted him while stopping him: "Madam, don't be angry, be careful and angry." ”

After smashing things, Qing Huan squatted down and hid his face and cried bitterly.
