Volume 2 Journey to the North Chapter 158 Perseverance

Li Yuejiao looked back at Xue Zhen's eyes, her eyes were red, and tears were still hanging on her face, and she did not show joy or anger because of his words.

But because of her peaceful crying like this, Xue Zhen's heart was stabbed even more painfully and guilty.

What did he do?

When he was suspicious of her at the beginning, how could he still use that marriage contract to hide from her, deceive her, and marry her for that selfish purpose?

Xue Zhen was stunned for a long time, and when she just realized that she should hand her the handkerchief, Li Yuejiao was already very careless, wiping her tears with her sleeve.

Xue Zhen was stunned for a moment, and took back the hand that was about to take the handkerchief.

He didn't even dare to say the words of comfort to her.

Li Yuejiao wiped away her tears and still looked at Xue Zhen.

When she thought she deserved that apology, when she really heard the sorry, Li Yuejiao suddenly realized that what she wanted to hear now was not this sentence.

It shouldn't be now.

This apology should not be his own.

Li Yuejiao stared at Xue Zhen in a daze, and only opened her mouth for a long time, and muttered in a hoarse voice:

"Son, believe their words?"

Xue Zhen smiled bitterly and nodded with difficulty, only feeling that he couldn't face the person in front of him.

In the end, he was not only a villain, but also a fool, and he was beaten by his own biological grandfather, who rarely did business, even his parents and brothers were quite slight, and he was also quite cold, and he only wanted to cultivate immortals.

「…… Shizi, do you believe in Sanniang? Are they really Yanmo and Su Fang?".

Xue Zhen nodded again: "There's no need for her to make up a lie like that to deceive you, and she can't revive the soul of someone who should be dead."

Li Yuejiao handed him back the letter in her hand and asked him with tears in her eyes:

"What about this letter? Son, if our marriage contract is from the beginning...... What about the scam that the old marquis and my mother planned together? Now, I don't even know what to believe about it."

Even though Li Yuejiao has always believed in her mother's innocence, but now it seems that her mother has a deep friendship with the people in Shanyetang, and she can't believe that her mother is completely innocent.

Xue Zhen listened to her words, lost the strength to think for a while, and only felt more ashamed.

He thought that Li Yuejiao would be angry with him, scold him, and beat him, but she didn't.

Even at this time, after hearing Yanmo's words, she would think of all kinds of possibilities.

Xue Zhen couldn't look at her anymore, so he could only avoid her eyes, looked at the empty courtyard, and said softly for a long time:

「…… Miss Li, that doesn't matter anymore."

Li Yuejiao didn't understand this sentence, and still asked with a little grievance, "What?"

"No matter what Ling Tang did in this matter," Xue Zhen whispered weakly and calmly, "I can't deny what my grandfather did, he is the culprit, isn't he?"

When he said this, Xue Zhen's nose was sour, but he didn't cry.

Because of the confession of words, he can face this cruel truth to himself.

Li Yuejiao fell silent, wiped her tears again, and didn't say anything.

At this time, she finally felt the cold, and the sadness in her heart came up again, and this time, it was because of Xue Zhen's almost desperate tone.

The surroundings were quiet again, only the charcoal basin placed on the other side of Li Yuejiao was left, and there were occasionally one or two beeping sounds.

But it wasn't quiet for long, and Xue Zhen spoke:

"But, Miss Li, I just don't understand, why are they doing these things? Why do you pit yourself and me against each other, and why do you turn these old things out little by little?"

Li Yuejiao tightened the cloak on her body and shook her head, she couldn't explain the other party's behavior, she only felt outrageous and ridiculous when she thought about it.

"It's going to be...... The innocent people who died in that bombing?" She suddenly asked, "Otherwise, I can't think of anyone else who would hate so much trouble."

Xue Zhen was silent for a moment and shook his head: "If it weren't for the misfortune, you would let three."

The mother went to follow the ...... surnamed Jiang You and I will only doubt each other today, and we will not doubt our grandfather."

「…… Yes." Li Yuejiao muttered.

Xue Zhen suddenly realized that they were sitting in the winter night of Anhua County, so he got up and said softly to Li Yuejiao:

"Miss Li, it's too cold outside, let's go back to the house."

Li Yuejiao let out a sullen "um", and when she struggled to stand up, her legs were numb because of the cold, and she almost fell.

Xue Zhen helped her again, but after she stood firm, he quickly let go of her and retreated under the steps.

"What Miss Li wants, Xue will give it to you...... When I return to Beijing next time, Xue will give it to you after figuring out some things." Xue Zhen raised his head and looked at her, his peach blossom eyes lost their former brightness and gentleness, and only guilt remained, "And those two people, I asked Chen Sanniang to temporarily place them on the outskirts of Anhua City, so as not to be discovered by those people."

Li Yuejiao thought for a while, and then realized that what he said "what he wanted" was something, and it was Xiushu.

She couldn't tell what it was like to feel inside, so she didn't speak, just nodded, and then said strangely, "Why did you let Sanniang settle them?"

Xue Zhen let out a breath and said, "When I received that letter before, I deliberately checked the people around me and made sure that the people around me were credible, so I would ...... But now, I haven't looked deep enough."

Otherwise, how could he not know that his grandfather still had such a "righteous son" and another face.

When he said this, his voice was more solemn, which made Li Yuejiao shudder.

It's just that the killing intent is only a moment, and he takes away the killing intent, and only salutes Li Yuejiao: "Today's matter, thank you girl, it's not early, the girl will rest first, Xue will leave."

With that, turn around and leave.

Li Yuejiao grabbed the cloak and looked at the back of Xue Zhen leaving, standing still in the cold wind of the winter night.

The clouds that she was looking at at at the end of the corridor didn't come over until Xue Zhen left, and she supported Li Yuejiao and persuaded softly:

"Miss, it's too cold, watch your body, go back quickly."

Li Yuejiao nodded stiffly, and when she turned around, she saw Chen Sanniang standing outside the main hall.

Chen Sanniang looked at her, smiled and said, "I'll take them out of the city tomorrow morning."

Li Yuejiao nodded: "Hard work Sanniang, thank you, thank you for today's events." I'm sorry for doubting you."

Chen Sanniang smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, if it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't believe it from the beginning." She looked at her dejected face, sighed again, and comforted softly:

"Ma'am...... The girl is very lucky, Xue Zhen, the son of the world, still has some conscience, and is not a bad person."

Li Yuejiao was still crying, but she was amused by her words and barely smiled, and then, the tears fell again, but she cried even more.

Chen Sanniang was suddenly at a loss.

Did she say something wrong again?

But Li Yuejiao cried and asked in a choked voice, "Sanniang has settled them, will she come back?" I still have something I want to ask Sanniang to help me."

Chen Sanniang nodded immediately.

"Nature." It was only after a slightly impulsive answer that Chen Sanniang thought about it again, realized something, and asked, "Could it be Miss Li...... Do you want to care about these things?"

Li Yuejiao nodded vigorously: "Yes."

After finishing speaking, Li Yuejiao's mood relaxed, and even the crying dissipated a little, replaced by a wave of perseverance.

Of course she has to take care of it, she has to investigate these things, and she must investigate them to the end.

Since the men had dragged themselves in, she had to stand in them and find out why they were doing it.

It's also to know what his mother has done.

She won't run away, and it's not a chess piece that those people think can hold in her hands.

Thinking about it, Li Yuejiao breathed a sigh of relief, put away her tears, and smiled at Chen Sanniang:

"Yes, I want to know why, they hurt the people around me again and again, calculating me, me

Naturally, I want to know who it is, I am very careful, even if it is for my father and my mother, I have to find out."

Chen Sanniang didn't expect her to be like this, so she couldn't help but be stunned, and laughed for a long time.

She really, mislooked at this little lady again and again.

Thinking about it, she also nodded vigorously, and said firmly, "Okay, when I settle the two of them, I will come back, and I will help you no matter what the girl needs me to do."

Li Yuejiao looked at her and finally showed the first tired, but sincere smile of the night.

*

When the sun came out the next day, no one spoke of what had happened last night.

Whether it was the Hu family brothers, Wen Long and others sent by Xue Zhen to protect Li Yuejiao and others, or Tong's mother, Si Cui, Yun Tuan, etc., they all acted as if this incident had never happened, and they never mentioned it.

Li Yuejiao didn't say much.

However, Li Yuejiao woke up a little late the next day, and when she woke up, Chen Sanniang had already left with Yanmo and Su Fang.

And because she had a cold last night, she had some cough, but fortunately she didn't have a fever, and she was healthy, and Zheng Xiaoxi was there, and there were many good medicines at home, so she took medicine for a few days and got better.

The days went by and on, and on the 28th day of the lunar month, the water conservancy project at the Tuntian was finally completed, and Qin Le and others finally returned.

On this day, Li Yuejiao's mood had already calmed down, and her body was almost better, when she was laughing with Qin Le, she didn't let Qin Le see the difference at all, and asked Cuiliu and others to come to Zhang Luoxi, give everyone a good life, and let the cloud group share a lot for the craftsmen.

She also prepared new clothes, new jewelry, etc. for everyone.

"I won't be able to go home this year, but even if I'm out for the New Year, I have to look like one." Li Yuejiao said with a smile.

Everyone was naturally happy, but Du Qinle was very worried about her and asked:

"Why does your house still smell of medicine?"

Li Yuejiao smiled lightly: "It's okay, senior sister, it's just that I have a cold and a little cough, and the sixth brother boiled medicine for me, it's much better."

Qin Le was slightly relieved, touched her face, and said softly, "It's almost the New Year, you are like this, it's strange to be worried." Will you be safe these days?"

"Senior sister, rest assured, it's safe," Li Yuejiao said with a smile, "I wanted to go and see how the project is going over there, but unfortunately it's going to be a holiday, so I don't bother to go."

"The Zhenbei Army is receiving it, and now it's going to see the mess," Qin Le said with a smile, "It's good to wait for a year later."

"Okay, listen to Senior Sister." Li Yuejiao said with a smile.

In this way, the chaotic nine years of Jianlong came to an end, and on the first day of the first month of the tenth year of Jianlong, in the happiness of Li Yuejiao's hidden worries, finally arrived.
