Chapter 21: The Nightmare Didn't Wake Up
Ruan Si persuaded for a long time, Zhu Dongyan cried breathlessly and said: "What do you want him to do when he comes back, do you want him to divorce his wife?" ”
"Sister-in-law, where do you think you go? Whoever bullies you, your husband will naturally seek justice for you. ”
Zhu Dongyan got up, grabbed Ruan Si's arm, and begged: "No, no, don't let him come back, it's me who has lost his face." ”
"Sister-in-law!" Ruan Silai was angry, "His face is all lost by himself, he has no responsibility as a man, that is the most embarrassing thing." ”
Zhu Dongyan muttered: "Don't blame him, it's because I don't have the ability to accompany him to the rivers and lakes......"
Ruan Si hugged her shoulders and persuaded, "You are not at fault?" If you have to be wrong, it's your own fault of sticking your neck into the lasso. ”
"Brother and sister, what did you say?"
Ruan Si sighed: "I wish the old master that I have also met, I can imagine what he has taught you." But sister-in-law, you have to make your own decisions. ”
Zhu Dongyan wiped his tears and said: "Although I am an unassertive, I have read allusions to chaste martyrs, and I will do whatever they do." ”
"These are ropes that men forcibly put on women, so that women are obedient like animals, and they take ropes to strangle their necks."
Zhu Dongyan was stunned and said: ""Female Virtue" and "Female Commandment" are all classics, how can my brother and sister slander the classics so much? ”
"Your scriptures teach you to be good with all your heart, but if you have to press your neck and teach you to be subordinate to men, why should you do it?"
Zhu Dongyan's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he covered his ears and reprimanded: "Don't say such nonsense, which woman doesn't read women's virtues?" ”
Ruan Si pulled her hand away and said with a wry smile: "Yes, I also read Na Lao Shizi's "Female Virtue" when I was a child. ”
"Then why don't you take what the book says to heart?"
"Because ......"
She is the one who died once.
In her previous life, Ruan Si put Yao Yu first everywhere, respected him, loved him, respected him, and endured all the humiliation and betrayal he brought her.
Because of her obedience, the silver bottle died to protect her.
She listened to Yao Yu's words, three from four virtues, swallowed her anger, and endured it to the end, but she couldn't even keep her own flesh and blood.
Ruan thought about her past life, the corners of her eyes moistened slightly, and she held her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I once had a nightmare that I couldn't wake up. ”
"In my dream, I married another woman, and I was tolerant and obedient everywhere...... This nightmare, all because of my weakness, all seemed to be real. ”
Zhu Dongyan stopped crying and clenched her hand worriedly.
"I was humiliated and betrayed in my dreams, blindly obeyed and submitted, and lived like a walking corpse, which is still terrifying when I think about it."
Zhu Dongyan comforted her and said, "Don't think about it, it's all a dream." ”
"Sister-in-law, I have never had such a real dream, in that dream, I ended up putting my neck in a noose and strangled myself with my own hands."
"Brother and sister, don't say it."
Ruan Si let go of her hand and said, "After all, how much is the difference between dream and reality? ”
Zhu Dongyan said in a low voice: "When you wake up from the dream, everything is over." ”
"Isn't it the same when people die?" Ruan Si smiled bitterly, "Sister-in-law, I still remember the feeling of being out of despair, so I ......"
"I don't want to see you put yourself in that rope trap too. Believe me, how can there be so many desperate situations in the world that must die? ”
Zhu Dongyan covered his face and cried: "However, no one told me what to do, I don't know ......"
Ruan Si hugged her, patted her on the back, and comforted: "Now you don't have to be afraid." If it's really desperate, I'll pull you out. ”
"Brother and sister," Zhu Dongyan finally cried loudly, "I don't know, I don't know, no one has ever told me this." ”
Ruan Si stroked her back and said softly, "Well, don't be afraid, you just need to remember that you are not at fault." ”
"Since you're not wrong, then you go to fight, fight for your own dignity, honor and disgrace, and pay attention to those cannibalistic things, what are you doing?"
In the house, Zhu Dongyan's crying gradually weakened.
Yan Yingzhou stood under the eaves of the corridor with the letter in his hand, thought for a long time, and finally turned around and left.
But he was haunted by the dream that Ruan Si said.
Is the person she married in the dream the one he thought......
Finally, Zhu Dongyan dispelled the idea of seeking death.
Ruan Si asked the maid to serve her to eat some food, turned back to the room by herself, took the golden step shake, and went to Xun County Ling's house.
Yao Yu was still at the Xun family and didn't leave, and she couldn't care about this, so when she saw Mrs. Xun, she gave Jin Buyan to her.
"Oh, my sister can't afford such a heavy gift." Mrs. Xun really couldn't put it down, "My sister has something to ask me to help with?" ”
Ruan Si smiled: "My sister is a cheerful person, I'll just say it, I want to ask Lord Xun to temporarily close my shop." ”
Mrs. Xun held the golden hairpin and frowned: "Why is this so painful? You can earn dozens of taels of silver by renting it out. ”
"It's not a secret, it turned out that the shopkeeper Wang who rented the shop offended Jia Shan, Jia Shan ordered someone to smash the shop, and the old and young of the Wang family also ran away overnight."
Mrs. Xun also knew about this and nodded.
"Jia Shan's anger has not subsided, and he came to Yan's house a few days ago to make a big fuss, and he has to hand him over."
Ruan Si said with a sad expression: "Good sister, where do you say I will turn him into a big living person?" I'm not a woman who can stand being scared. ”
Mrs. Xun suddenly realized: "So you want to seal the shop first, so that he can dissipate his anger, so as not to go to trouble again?" ”
"Isn't it," Ruan Si said deliberately worried, "Otherwise, if he holds a grudge, I'm afraid that my Yan family will never have peace." ”
Mrs. Xun also heard from Xun County's order that Jia Shan took people to Yan's house to make trouble, but fortunately, Chen Ye arrived to disperse everyone.
She put away Jin Bu Shao and swore solemnly: "Hey, what's so difficult about this? Isn't it over if my lord ordered someone to put a seal on it? ”
Ruan Si thanked Mrs. Xun and got up to leave.
She sent Ruan Si out and said with a smile: "After this period of time, when do you want to open a shop, I will let someone tear the seal for you." ”
As soon as the two of them went out, they saw Yao Yu, Yao Yu smiled and said, "It's windy outside, cousin stay, I'll send Mrs. Yan out." ”
Mrs. Xun was so happy to be lazy, she giggled and lifted the curtain and went back to the room.
Ruan Si didn't even glance at Yao Yu, and said, "No need." ”
Yao Yu leaned over and made a "please" gesture and said with a smile: "On the day of the Lantern Festival, Xiaosheng should send the girl home." ”
Ruan Si was shocked in his heart, his face was impassive, and he said, "Young Master Yao is polite. ”
She turned around and walked to the gate, Yao Yu suddenly approached her, and said in a low voice: "Jia Shan, I can send it for you, but ......"
Ruan Si knows very well that trading with Yao Yu is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger.
She didn't wait for Yao Yu to finish speaking, and walked out of the door.
As soon as she went out, she saw a man jumping out on the left and right, and the two of them attacked together to restrain her.
"What are you doing!" Yao Yu followed and reprimanded, "In broad daylight, you dare to rob the people's daughters?" ”
"Fuck off, little white face." One of them flashed the dagger in his hand at him.
The other person stared at Ruan Si with a fierce look on his face, "If you don't want to eat a knife, be honest, Jia Dashan will wait for you in the carriage." ”
