Chapter 146: When love is strong, people get drunk
Mu Mingshu looked at Su Ruolan with a complicated expression, frowned for a long time before saying, "Ruolan, you ......" The words behind him couldn't say anything.
She didn't want to see Su Ruolan at first, but because she was Zhao Yiheng's woman, Su Ruolan helped her several times later, asking her to change her opinion of Su Ruolan, but this change couldn't suppress the scene she had just seen.
Su Ruolan married into the Rui Wangfu and became Zhao Yiheng's side concubine, but what she was thinking about in her heart was another man, and that man was still Zhao Yiheng's staff, Li Chengyan.
This kind of thing is that Mu Mingshu can't accept it all of a sudden after living two lives, her heart jumps suddenly, and she can't help thinking: Is Zhao Yiheng cuckolded?
Su Ruolan was from everyone's background, and she just asked Mu Mingshu to break her into making love with other men, but she was just flustered for a moment, and then calmed down.
She raised her eyes to meet Mu Mingshu's gaze, her eyes were calm, and she took a deep breath and said, "I hope the princess will listen to Ruolan's explanation." ”
Mu Mingshu still listened to Su Ruolan's explanation in the end, she carried Zhao Ziyue back to Moyun Hall, handed him to Wen Dong's arms, and sent the waiters in the house back, until there were only two people left in the house, and her heart had not yet calmed down.
Su Ruolan stood three feet away from Mu Mingshu, took a deep breath, and said without humility or arrogance: "Ruolan has a secret affair with His Royal Highness King Rui. ”
"Secrets?" Mu Mingshu was even more surprised, since Su Ruolan entered the Derui Palace, Zhao Yiheng had never been to Yusheng Residence once, she always thought that she had taken him firmly by herself, but she never knew that there was a secret here.
Su Ruolan is from a scholarly family, even as a daughter, her family also reads and learns words like that man, and the same boudoir woman is different.
And Li Chengyan was originally a famous big family in Kyoto, but because someone in the clan committed a crime and implicated the entire clan, the family fell into the middle of the road and threw himself into Zhao Yiheng's door.
Su Ruolan and Li Chengyan have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, the two families have the same family background, and the elders are world friends, and they also intend to marry. Although Li Chengyan is four or five years older than Su Ruolan, he is not very big in this era, and as soon as the two families combined, they gave Su Ruolan, who was only seven or eight years old at the time, to Li Chengyan. At that time, Su Ruolan was young and didn't know what it was called engagement, and her mother told her that if she married into the Li family in the future, Li Chengyan would be her dependent, and she really regarded Li Chengyan as a dependent at a young age.
But as I got older and read more books, I realized what marriage was and what husband and wife were.
The love is just beginning, the girl is emotional, and there are those fantasies about the future husband hidden in her heart. Although Su Ruolan had seen Li Chengyan was very temperamental early on, she still blocked him behind the unmanned rockery with a red face, and asked him fiercely: "Although we have a marriage contract, it was also made by my parents when I was young. ”
At that time, her heart was pounding, nervous and scared, although she had the intention of testing him, but she was afraid that he would really leave with his sleeves and ruin this family business.
But Li Chengyan curled his lips and smiled: "You will be the housewife in the future, whether there are other people in the house or not, it is not all the housewife's words." After a pause, he said, "I'm a person who can't get up." ”
Li Chengyan is a few years older than Su Ruolan, as soon as she opened her mouth, she was red-faced, and she couldn't say what she had thought about later, she only raised her eyes and looked at him slightly, and saw him grinning at herself, her cheeks became more and more red and transparent, and she said: "You are also Meng Lang." As soon as he finished speaking, he lowered his head and ran away like a rabbit.
Su Ruolan's affection for Li Chengyan is getting deeper and deeper, although the two have never done anything in private, but as long as the two of them meet their eyes, they will have that indescribable affection.
The more Su Ruolan grows, the more satisfied she is with the family business set for her, he knows the roots, he has a good appearance, a good temperament, and he will like her too, so he will be good.
The marriage of the two has passed the six-ceremony invitation period, and they will get married only when the next year is over, Su Ruolan hid in the boudoir for a whole year, embroidered her own wedding dress and dowry, and became his wife as soon as the day comes.
But before she could finish it, something happened to the Li family. The whole Li family tree fell and scattered, those who were implicated suffered all, those who were not implicated moved and moved away, such a big family, but a few days of hard work was defeated.
Li Chengyan's father also suffered a lawsuit over that matter, and her mother scattered all her family wealth to ask for a door, and finally survived. Although Li Chengyan's father was released, he suffered this disaster in the end, and his body was not as good as before, and he had to be nourished with medicine every day.
His mother's dowry was all scattered, and the family couldn't make ends meet, Li Chengyan was a backbone, and he would rather go to a big family as a nursing home than ask for shelter and send someone under the fence.
Li Chengyan withstood such a change, but his parents did not, and one or two were depressed, and they died not long after.
Li Chengyan held back his tears, and the changes in his family did not knock him down, but inspired him even more.
But the Su family does not value his self-motivation, but his family background, and now that his family background is gone, he will not marry the girl he raised carefully to him to suffer.
Su Ruolan is really interested in Li Chengyan, and those wedding dresses and dowries all carry her yearning for the future and affection for him, but in the end, she still can't resist her mother's words: "He is not worthy of you." ”
What is worthy? What is unworthy? In their eyes, feelings are only the right match, and only the right to family history.
Su Ruolan cried and cried, begged and begged, but this marriage was not something she could say at all.
She secretly inquired about Li Chengyan's residence, and had the courage to sneak out of the house, and only found his residence when she ran into walls everywhere, she knocked on the door for a long time and did not open, or the aunt next door came out to take a look, and looked at her dressed as a maid, only when she was a messenger, and said kindly: "The little brother in this house has to be on an errand during the day, and he is only afraid that he will come back at night. ”
Su Ruolan smiled bitterly: "Thank you, auntie, I'll wait." ”
She shrank at the door and waited for two hours before waiting for Li Chengyan, who was dressed in coarse linen, she quickly stood up, happy and uncomfortable in her heart, the two looked at each other three feet away, and finally Su Ruolan opened her mouth first: "Why do you want to give up on me?" ”
When Li Chengyan saw her, he had no other expression except surprise, but his heart was suddenly full, and he couldn't speak for half a sound, and he held back for a long time before he finally said: "You, why are you here?" ”
It's not easy to talk outside, Li Chengyan welcomed her into the house, a small courtyard once she entered, there were too many people to even turn around, but it was very clean and tidy.
Li Chengyan poured in the kitchen for a long time before he burned a bowl of coarse tea for her, and when he handed it to him, he inexplicably felt inferior.
Su Ruolan grew so big, the first time she saw such a coarse porcelain bowl containing a bowl of bitter coarse tea, but she rubbed the edge of the coarse porcelain bowl and drank the whole bowl of tea, but a layer of mist appeared in her eyes: "I don't want to marry someone else." ”
Li Chengyan's heart seemed to be hammered hard, it was stuffy and painful, he lowered his eyes, hooked the corners of his lips and said sarcastically: "You don't want to marry someone else, don't you want to marry me?" As he spoke, he glanced at his own small courtyard, and said with a more sarcastic smile: "I'm afraid that even your maid will be disgusted here, not to mention that I can't afford your life in the future." ”
The mist in Su Ruolan's eyes suddenly turned into tears, she bit her lip and shook her head, but she couldn't say anything.
Li Chengyan said again: "If you marry me, you can only wear dusty coarse cloth clothes in the future, get up early in the morning to take care of housework, cook and wash dishes, and have children in the future and have to do these things with a big belly, those idle things to watch flowers, and the life of drinking and feasting when busy will never exist, the Su family only despises and despises you, you don't even have the protection of your mother's family, do you think you can really stand it in the future?" ”
Su Ruolan is just a girl who is raised in the boudoir and does not know the world, where does she know how the small family lives, Li Chengyan asked her this, but she couldn't answer a word.
She doesn't know how to light a fire, she can't cook, wash clothes and wash dishes, in addition to reciting poems, she can only be those complicated female celebrities, and take the account book to manage the middle feed of the entire house.
Li Chengyan personally sent her back, looking at her eyes with red eyes, he couldn't help but sigh: "Ruolan, you were born in everyone, I am only poor and white now, no matter who you are rationed to in the future, you will be better than me." ”
Su Ruolan looked at him and didn't speak, pursed her lips tightly, and said for a long time: "I went to learn to make fire, learn to cook, learn to wash clothes and dishes, my female celebrity is good, even if I do some embroidery, I can sell it for money." ”
Hearing her say this, Li Chengyan was not unmoved, but he knew his own identity and didn't want to burden her, but he smiled against his heart: "Talk about who won't." ”
Su Ruolan returned to Su Mansion, but the Su family watched more and more closely, her mother was afraid that she was looking for Li Chengyan, in addition to looking for her firmly, she also kept looking for young talents of the same age, and even went to Li Chengyan's and sent a box of silver over, counting in rows, not to mention five hundred taels.
The smile on Li Chengyan's face became more and more sarcastic, but he accepted it and promised: "Don't worry, with this silver, she will come, and I will drive her away." ”
Su Ruolan's mother told her about it when she went back, and sneered: "Fortunately, I retired this family business for you, I really didn't see his character in the past, it turned out to be such a spineless person." ”
Su Ruolan bit her lip and didn't speak, how could she not know what Li Chengyan meant, but she was unwilling and couldn't let go.
She couldn't get out of the house, and she was forced to pretend to be elated every day to deal with those young talents that her mother fancied, such days made her miserable, and she even wanted to hang herself to death in a three-foot white silk at one point.
Until that day, she accidentally met Zhao Yiheng.
