"You don't need to see each other, just let me say a few words to Lingtang."

When Fang Qiao said this sentence with a pleading face. Yi Yu suddenly thought of that night, Lu's poignant memories, Lu Zhi, who was only five years old, on the night of early winter, after experiencing such a terrible thing, what he got was not the comfort of his father, but an understatement, and he was imprisoned in the cold ancestral hall.

Lu Shi had a big belly, and after falling into a coma, he knelt outside the concubine's courtyard all night, but he didn't even see her husband's side, at that time, who had ever given them the opportunity to say a word!

Yi Yu's right hand on his lap slowly grasped the skirt, resisted the urge to question the man, turned his head to look at Lu Zhi, but saw that he had accepted the polite smile he had received before, if she didn't know too much, she would definitely think that his calm face was just like his mood.

"Master Fang, my mother is not the person you are looking for."

Rejected by Lu Zhi, Fang Qiao looked worried and asked, "Today is not the day of the Guozijian to rest, I see that you are wearing the regular clothes of the Guozijian." I should have just come back from school, and I take the liberty to ask, Mrs. Lu is inconvenient to see me, but is she sick? ”

"That's right, my mother is feeling cold and is resting, so if Master Fang has anything to say to me, I will definitely help you convey it."

As soon as he heard that Lu was sick, Fang Qiao's expression tightened, "Why is it sick, have you seen a doctor?" ”

Yi Yu looked at the worried look in his eyes, and for a while he had an urge to laugh, why did he go earlier, he was thirteen years late, would her mother need it?

She got up directly from the chair, put on a posture of sending off guests, and said, "I said that my mother is resting, if you have something to say, say it quickly, if you don't say it, then please go back." ”

As soon as her voice fell, the subordinate named Ah Hu, who had just reprimanded her, glared at her, and then softly persuaded Fang Qiao:

"Master, let's go back, I don't think they look like ......"

Fang Qiao waved his hand to stop him from continuing, and judging from the expressions of Yi Yu and Lu Zhi, he knew that their mother was fine. Seeing that the two brothers and sisters were resolute, they didn't let him see that Mrs. Lu at all, and they were even more sure that he had in his heart, and if he continued to press, it could only backfire.

He looked around the plainly furnished room, and then looked at the chair where Lu Zhi was sitting with obvious traces of repair on the armrests, frowned slightly, turned his head and whispered to Ah Hu, and the other party reluctantly took out something from his sleeve and handed it to him.

After Fang Qiao took it, he walked up to Yi Yu, tried his best to make his expression kinder, handed his hands forward, and said:

"The last time I was in the silk shop, I frightened Miss Lu, and these rights should be apologies," after a slight pause, he continued, "I was in a hurry today, and I couldn't bring a gift to the door, so I'll come back to visit another day." ”

Only then did Yi Yu take a serious look at what he handed in front of him. The seal that emerged from between his fingers was the seal of the Heavenly Cabinet - two silver tickets with a denomination of one hundred taels.

What is this, helping the poor? Two hundred taels, if it was placed four years ago, with so much silver, their family would probably wake up with a smile in their dreams, but now, the jade pendant she saw on Fang Zhiwu's neck that day, I'm afraid it was more than five hundred taels.

After Yi Yu chuckled, he took a step to the side, staggered away from him, and stretched out his hand to lead the hall door, "Lord Fang, don't send it slowly." ”

Fang Qiao pinched the hand of the silver ticket and paused in the air, sighed secretly, turned around and walked towards the door, Ah Hu saw that he was leaving, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the curtain.

"Master Lu, I have two sentences, I hope you can tell Mrs. Lu, if she is really my old friend, she will be able to understand."

When Fang Qiao walked to the door, he suddenly turned around, glanced at Lu Zhi and Yi Yu, and fell on the room where the two of them walked out just now, stared at the thick door curtain, and said slowly: "Lan Niang, I was wrong, I'm sorry." ”

This voice is full of indescribable complex emotions. There are regrets, there are sighs, there are worries, there are tensions.

The hall fell silent for a moment, Lu Zhi half-lowered his head, his eyes were thick with mockery, and Yi Yu quietly looked at Fang Qiao's emaciated face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Fang Qiao retracted his gaze, turned around and was about to enter the courtyard, at this moment, the four people in the hall only heard a clear girl's voice behind him:

"Madame, why are you up?"

Yi Yu and Lu Zhi turned their heads with a "swish", and saw that Lu Shi was holding the curtain with one hand, standing in the bedroom door, his body was neatly dressed at some point, and the hair that was scattered just now was also neatly coiled into a bun, and his white cheeks were slightly red from getting up, and his clear eyes were staring at the figure standing at the door with his back to her without blinking.

Ah Hu, who was still holding the curtain, was standing on the side of the Lu family, and when he saw the woman in her thirties, her eyes widened suddenly. Stumbling shouted:

"Husband, ma'am?"

He had seen the portrait of the Lu family when he was in Longquan Town before, but if it is danqing, there must be distortion, although the Lu family's face is softer than thirteen years ago, but the overall facial features have not changed much! But more than ten years ago, the corpses of the mother and son were identified by him in person with Fang Qiao, how could it be fake!

Yi Yu and Lu Zhi were stunned for a moment, their minds racing rapidly, thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

Fang Qiao, who turned his back to everyone. After Xiao Man spoke, he stopped at the door, and listened to Ah Hu's shocked voice, the hand hanging on his side suddenly tightened, his heart beat uncontrollably, his face tightened, and he slowly turned around with anticipation and fear.

The eyebrows, the eyes, the nose—when the face that haunted him at night came into view, it was just a glance, a glance that had been separated by a full thirteen years, but in an instant, two lines of tears welled up in his eyes, which flowed down his cheekbones and down his chin and fell into his neck.

"Lan...", as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that he lost his voice, and the name that he had shouted every day was pronounced at this time, but it was very difficult.

I couldn't bear it, my heart ached when she watched him embrace her from afar, I was scared when I watched her cry outside the window, I hated him when she turned a blind eye to him, my heart died when he had to arrange for her to leave, when I saw her body from that man's place......

Once a husband and wife with red candles and jade pillows, once a couple with Prime Minister Bai, loved, hated, complained, repented, tossed and turned for thirteen years, when they met again, who could really say that the way was clear.

"Arashi—"

"Zhi'er. Who is this? Lu Shi calmly took his eyes off the tearful face and looked at Lu Zhi with a frown.

Fang Qiao propped up his eyes, so that in the blurred eyes, Lu's face could be clearer, but her plain question was like a muffled thunder hitting his chest! He thought that she would complain, that she would be angry, that she would scold, but he never thought that she would look at him with the same eyes as strangers! Without love, even hatred is gone......

Lu's reaction was also unexpected by Yi Yu and Lu Zhi, but after the two siblings were only slightly stunned, Yu Yu replied first:

"Mother, this is Lord Fang."

Lu Shi said suspiciously: "What Lord Fang, didn't you say that there are guests who want to see me?" ”

Lu Zhi stepped forward a few steps, blocking Fang Qiao's staring at Lu's gaze, as well as Ah Hu's shocked gaze, and said softly: "Mother, this adult recognized the wrong person, he checked Xiaoyu, and after knowing about our family's affairs, only when you are her old friend, this is the only way to find it." ”

The next moment Lu Zhi stood in front of her, Lu Shi's face instantly tensed, and all kinds of complicated gazes in his eyes intertwined back and forth, and only after Lu Zhi's voice did he bite the tip of his tongue and replied calmly:

"Oh, I recognized the wrong person, so let's talk, and my mother will go back to the house."

As early as when Yiyu and Lu Zhi walked out of the house, when Liu Xiangxiang brought her water, she accidentally knocked over the teacup and fell on the mattress, so she had to get up from the bed and ask Liu Xiangxiang to change the bedding.

Taking advantage of this, she was curious about the visitors, so she walked to the door and listened, and when she heard the words "Lord Fang" from the mouth of the widow, she was suspicious, and heard another voice in the hall, and after the roar in her head, she calmly changed her clothes, opened the curtain in time, and looked at the person quietly.

He is old, and he is no longer the suave young man he was back then, why is he crying, is he ashamed? Is it regret?

By the time she was sober in her mind, Lu Zhi was already in front of her, she thought that when she saw this person, she would be able to face it calmly, but the fact was that countless voices in her heart were shouting:

Ask him why he did that!

Ask him what right he has to use himself and his children!

Ask him if he will feel uneasy in conscience and sleepless at night after so many years!

But in the end, she just explained to Lu Zhi, and then turned around, thirteen years, everything should pass, it's not that it's hard to turn back, but that you can't go back.

"Lan Niang," Fang Qiao said in a hoarse voice, "You recognize me, I know you recognize me." ”

Lu's figure slowed down, and as soon as he stepped into the door, Fang Qiao immediately strode forward, and was stopped by Lu Zhi with his hand, looking at the back standing at the door, calmness was useless at this time, he didn't even think about it, so in front of everyone, he said urgently:

"Listen to me, things weren't what you thought they were! I didn't mean to stab Nao'er, I didn't mean to lock him up, but it was because—"

"Lord Fang!"

"Enough!"

Yi Yu and Lu Zhi opened their mouths at the same time, interrupting Fang Qiao's words, Yi Yu bypassed the table and chairs, and stretched out his hand to gather Lu Shi into the house.

Lu Shi turned his back to everyone's face, with a little hesitation, but when he looked sideways and saw the gloomy look on Yiyu's face, he finally couldn't bear to let his children worry, and stepped into the house with his other foot.

Ah Hu stood at the door in a daze, Xiao Man had already covered his lips and stood by the wall to watch this scene, Fang Qiao saw the curtain down, his pupils shrank, and he shouted:

"It's Han Li!"
