Yes, even something that Liu Yuan, a young man, can see, how could Liu Zhi not see it?

However, even if Liu Zhi knew, he still chose to remain silent. Or, rather, it's not silence, it's a direct, red-fruited disregard.

Liu Zhi's ignorance may only ignore the life and death of the little waiter, but more is the connivance, indifference, or ignorance of the almost inevitable secret fighting in this family's back house.

Liu Yuan smiled slightly bitterly, he lowered his eyes lightly, looked at Duan Qingming, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I know, I shouldn't have spoken to you in this tone, but I can't help it......"

His tone paused, he seemed to be enduring something, and after a long time, he spoke again: "You know, before I found my father, I was also a person who lived at the bottom, and I knew the sorrow of life at the bottom...... That little waiter may be a useless existence in the eyes of my father and even more people, but only I know that he is also a son, and he must have a father who loves him, a mother, and relatives who care about him...... However, he died like that, and no one could even help him get justice. ”

Liu Yuan said softly, his tone was as light as air, but there was a kind of sadness and powerlessness that almost everyone could feel—yes, it was powerlessness, that is, watching the people around him die innocently, but he was powerless, deep, and thick powerless.

Duan Qingming suddenly fell silent.

At that moment, she suddenly remembered the young man who had just entered the Duan Mansion, although he was dressed in cloth, his eyes were clear, his temperament was elegant and outstanding, and more importantly, his whole body had a kind of freshness that those who had lived in the backyard of the mansion for many years did not have, and even a strange smell of smoke and dust from afar.

Such a teenager has a pair of black and white eyes, as if he can only see the absolute black and white in this world.

At that time, he once taught Duan Yu the sacred words of "the great husband stands in the world, when the light falls, worthy of people, worthy of heart, and worthy of heaven".

At that time, he was angry at Duan Qingming for secretly plotting against Liu Rong, and he was angry, although he finally forgave Duan Qingming, but Duan Qingming still saw a kind of honesty outside this world in his eyes.

But now Liu Yuan, although his eyes are still clear, although his expression is still upright, but the clarity and honesty when he first saw Duan Mansion have gradually disappeared. At the moment, he is elegant and elegant, but he is also decadent and dazed, like a child who has lost his way in the dark night, and can no longer find the way he came.

Duan Qingming suddenly sighed secretly.

People who can't hold sand in their eyes are not suitable for living in the backyard of everyone's house, Liu Yuan is, many people are.

She knows that this is not Liu Yuan's fault, nor Liu Zhi's fault, or even Mrs. Liu's fault, yes, in this world, everyone has their own pursuits, and everything in the world, how can it be a "wrong" word?

In the final analysis, if it is really wrong, it should be the fault of the years and the fault of God.

The years are like a wind knife, carving the fine lines of vicissitudes on the young man's white forehead, and then smoothing out the edges and corners that belong to the young man.

God, while giving people life and wisdom, does not forget to impose all kinds of traits such as greed, treachery, and so on.

The two of them didn't speak, just quietly accompanied each other and walked for a long time.

Duan Qingming only came for Princess Jinxiu today, so she didn't bring a stove, Qiu Ning, or Yuejia. The fluttering cold wind blew Duan Qingming's body trembling, the cold wind blew, Duan Qingming shuddered, and Liu Yuan realized that it turned out that Duan Qingming's little face under the hat had already frozen purple.

Liu Yuan's heart suddenly felt sad. He took Duan Qingming's little hand and said with some guilt: "Qingming, I'm sorry, it's so cold, but I let you stay with me for so long...... You should be cold, right? ”

Duan Qingming quietly withdrew her hand and rubbed it together. Then he smiled and said: "What's the matter, Liu Gongzi is in a bad mood, I should accompany you." ”

Duan Qingming lowered her head slightly, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll call you Liu Yuan!" ”

Liu Yuan was happy to hear it, so he responded crisply: "Hey......"

Halfway through the words, he paused slightly, Liu Yuan looked at Duan Qingming with some disgust, and said almost resentfully: "I can say it in the future, I can't call it anymore, I'm listening, it's annoying." ”

Liu Yuan's tone succeeded in making Duan Qingming laugh, and she shook her head slightly: "Hey, it's just a title, why should you take it seriously...... You know, no matter what you call it, you are the same brother in my heart! ”

Liu Yuan's eyes suddenly darkened - could it be that he was just a brother?

Duan Qingming tilted her head, under the hazy curtain, revealing her smooth chin and thoughtful eyes, she was silent for a while, and suddenly said faintly: "You know, I will never forget the time we used to get along." ”

Everything that happened in Duan's mansion, even all the help and encouragement that Liu Yuan had given her.

A stiff string in Liu Yuan's heart suddenly trembled. He looked at Duan Qingming and said almost the words he was ready to say.

Liu Yuan's eyes were very gentle.

Liu Yuan's expression was very focused.

Liu Yuan's face gradually turned red, and in this bleak winter day, there was an indescribable ruddy feeling.

Liu Yuan's heart was beating fast. He looked at Duan Qingming with gentle eyes, and said softly: "Qingming, actually I ......"

However, at this moment, an abrupt voice suddenly came from the front: "What are you doing?" ”

Liu Yuan suddenly froze, if he had already prepared, there was no way to say it.

Duan Qingming raised her eyes, glanced at the person in front of her, and suddenly laughed: "Aunt Chuntao, why are you here?" ”

The person in front of him is indeed Chun Tao. I saw that she was coming out of a pharmacy, carrying a long list of herbs, and in her left hand, she was still holding a packet of things that she didn't know what to do. At this time, she saw Duan Qingming with a smile on her face, but she struggled to lift the thing to her left hand and waved her hand at Duan Qingming: "Qingming, why are you here?" ”

Duan Qingming took two steps forward and reached out for Chun Tao to catch the paper bag in his hand. However, as soon as it changed hands, Liu Yuan had already taken it over. Duan Qingming hurriedly introduced: "Liu Yuan, this is Aunt Chuntao......"

Liu Yuan nodded to Aunt Chuntao in a proper manner, and then, in a warm and nice voice, Chao Chuntao said politely: "Aunt Chuntao is so ......"

Liu Yuan didn't actually know Chun Tao, and he hadn't heard Duan Qingming say it.

In this way, it is actually not that Duan Qingming is hiding anything. It's just that when Liu Yuan recognized his relatives and left Duan Mansion for the first time, Duan Qingming and Chun Tao had just met for the first time. Chun Tao's master and servant said goodbye without saying goodbye, and as soon as Duan Qingming returned to the mansion, he was entangled in trivial matters. In addition, Duan Qingming is not a person who talks much, and she never mentions things that have nothing to do with Liu Yuan.

Moreover, after Liu Yuan left the Duan Mansion, he and Duan Qingming were busy, and the number of meetings was very rare, and the number of negotiations was only a handful. Therefore, it is impossible to talk about anything outside of life. In addition, Yan Lingyu likes to be jealous, and he doesn't like the contact between Duan Qingming and Liu Yuan, so he always gets in the way between the two intentionally or unintentionally. Therefore, the number of contacts between the two is even less.

But despite that, Liu Yuan didn't dare to look at Chun Tao for half a minute.

Looking at this Chun Tao's dress, although she is capable and neat, listening to her tone, it is obvious that she is just a maid of the master's family, but this maid exudes a unique temperament that is different from that of the subordinates. It's more like a capable heroine or something. Such a woman, Liu Yuan didn't dare to despise in the first place. Listen to Duan Qingming call the other party "aunt" again. Naturally, it is not ordinary people who wait, so Liu Yuan's greeting is full of sincerity, but it is also very sincere.
