Chapter 263: Past and Present Lives (9)
Jiang Wu's face improved slightly, and he sat down and said, "Doesn't Daddy have something to say?"
"Wu'er, have you thought about it?" Jiang Wei couldn't bear to say.
He doesn't like Yu Wenhuai, it's a fact, but Yu Wenyu grew up watching him since he was a child, and he still has some feelings for him in his heart, and in addition to the identity of his future son-in-law, he is also half his son, if it weren't for Yu Wenhuai, how could he ruthlessly turn him away.
"Daddy, but it doesn't hurt. Jiang Wu said calmly: "My daughter is fine." ”
"Hmm. Jiang Li shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "This matter has to start from sixteen years ago......
Sixteen years ago, when he first met Yu Wenhuai, he was just a scholar who came to Chang'an from other places to take the exam, and because his family was poor, he often couldn't eat.
At that time, he was already the son of the richest man in Chang'an, with his hands open to the sky, and was rescued by Yuwenhuai because he was hunted and killed, in order to repay, he promised him the glory and wealth of his next life, who knows, the young Yuwenhuai didn't want anything, as long as this marriage contract.
And in order to repay the grace of saving his life, he also gladly agreed.
"What about later!" Knowing that the two met, Jiang Wu was a little fascinated by what he heard.
"Later, ......" Jiang Li said in a deep voice: "Later, in order to help him, your father and I spent money to buy the examiner, so that he successfully became the champion." ”
"Therefore, Uncle Yuwen can have today because of his father. ”
Jiang Li shook his head and replied, "Yes and no." ”
Falling into memories again, Jiang Li continued: "When he first became the champion, he was indeed a good official for the country and the people, but later, he seemed to be a different person, and he began to sell himself and the people around him for power......"
"But Daddy, Uncle Yuwen is Uncle Yuwen, and Brother Yu is Brother Yu, and the two should not be confused. Jiang Wu couldn't wait to argue.
"Dance. Jiang Li said with sadness: "Don't you understand? If you marry Yu'er, it will only make Yuwen Huai like a tiger, and according to his conduct, our Jiang family is just a stepping stone for him." ”
So that's why Daddy didn't say yes. Jiang Wu said unsteadily.
Jiang Li's face remained unchanged and said: "Your father and I have stayed in Chang'an all my life, and I don't have many friends, but there are still some ...... in financial exchanges."
"So what!"
"Someone told me that when I heard it from somewhere today, I said that the ancestor of my Jiang family has a treasure and is conspiring with Yu Wenhuai recently......"
"So Daddy listened to other people's one-sided words?"
"Daddy knows that he won't be able to persuade you for a while, but, Wu'er, you have to believe Daddy, Daddy won't harm you. ”
"Letter...... How to believe. Brother Yu and I have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and you also said that he is the only one in the world who is the most compatible with me. But why...... I finally waited until I was able to marry him, but how could you be so cruel. As she spoke, Jiang Wu burst into tears.
"Do you really want to marry him so much?" Jiang Li's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but close his eyes and said: "Wu'er, you should know that there is no turning back if you choose, although Yu'er has grown up with me, we don't know what his character is, if you marry him, my father is afraid that you will be wronged......"
Even if she is wronged, her daughter will never complain. She suddenly got up and knelt down and said, "Please also ask Daddy to fulfill me and Brother Yu." ”
"That's it...... Jiang Li compromised: "Since you want to marry, then marry...... I just hope you don't regret it in the future. ”
When Jiang Wu heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Daddy, Daddy." ”
"Your mother will come back from burning incense from Changming Temple tomorrow, and your marriage will be decided after your mother returns. He lifted his forehead very tiredly and said, "If it's okay, just step back first......
"Yes......" Jiang Wu responded, got up and said, "Then my daughter will leave first." ”
It was raining heavily in the courtyard, Jiang Wu pushed the door out, closed the door with his backhand, and was about to rush out in the rain, but saw a shadow suddenly sprinkled overhead.
She looked sideways, and as far as she could see, it was the slightly seductive handsome face of the silent night.
"Why are you here?" she said, frowning.
"Seeing that you and Master Jiang were admitted to the hospital together, and then it rained heavily, I waited here all the time......" The voice is clear and good.
"All the while?" Jiang Wu muttered, his complexion that had just turned a little ugly. "Silent Night Boy, although Miss Ben doesn't know why you came to my Jiang Mansion, but there is a difference between men and women, if Childe is fine, it is better to stay in the courtyard honestly and not meet me. ”
"Really?" Silent Night hooked her lips playfully and whispered, "I didn't know that Miss Jiang actually hated me so much. ”
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and every time Jiang Wu took a step, Silent Night followed suit, and the umbrella just covered her thin body impartially, while he himself was completely wet.
When approaching the gate of the courtyard of Nanyuan, I saw Shuyue holding an umbrella from a distance, waiting at the door.
"Miss......"
The rain was quite heavy, but Jiang Wu's dress was not wet at all, on the other hand, in the silent night, it was mostly wet by the rain.
Shuyue secretly glanced at the silent night, and took Jiang Wu with an umbrella. "Thank you, Childe, for sending my young lady back. ”
"You're welcome, that's what I should be. Silent Night smiled softly and advised, "It's cold outside, so let's help your young lady into the house quickly." ”
"Yes...... Shuyue flicked and helped Jiang Wu into the courtyard gate of Nanyuan.
Seeing that the big red figure was about to disappear, "Ah Wu ......" suddenly said: "If one day, you find that Yu Wenyu is the beginning of all the calamities in your life, will you ......regret it?"
Jiang Wu stopped, tilted his head slightly, and replied, "No regrets." ”
"Even if ...... He's going to ruin your family, and you don't regret it?"
Jiang Wu turned around under the umbrella held by Shuyue, and said in a cold voice: "Although I don't know what the Silent Night Boy said these inexplicable words for, but since the Childe has this question, the little girl might as well say it directly," she took a deep breath and said word by word: "No regrets...... Even if there will really be a day in the future as Gongzi said, Jiang Wu will not regret it. ”
After saying that, she walked into the rain alone, letting the rain wet her black hair and dress, and did not speed up her steps.
"Don't you regret it?"
The umbrella fell to the ground, and Shuyue glanced at Silent Night with pity, and then closed the courtyard door.
Silent Night stood in place, washed by the rain and covered in embarrassment, but kept muttering, "I always thought you would look at me more." ”
"Miss......"
Back in the room, Shuying quickly called hot water, and Shuyue took dry towels and clothes, wiped Jiang Wu's hair and said, "Miss, quickly change into clean clothes, otherwise you will catch a cold." ”
"Hmm. Jiang Wu nodded slightly, but in his mind, he repeated the words that Silent Night said.
"Even if ...... He's going to ruin your family, and you don't regret it?"
When she heard this sentence at that time, she wanted to rush forward and give him a slap, but after she calmed down, she felt that what he said was not unreasonable.
How can the things in the future be clear in one or two sentences, and even if she doesn't regret it now, what about the future! If it is really as Silent Night said, Yu Wenyu will really let her family be ruined, then how should she deal with herself.
Taking a deep breath, she absentmindedly changed into a clean dress, squatted in the corner of the wall with the quilt in a daze.
Shuyue Shuying brought a brazier to warm up, and said, "Miss, when I just went to fetch the charcoal fire, the silent night boy seemed to be still standing at the gate of our courtyard in the rain......
Jiang Wu was stunned, and his complexion changed slightly.
Shuyue said: "Miss, the slave knows that you hate him very much, but the slave can see that the Silent Night Boy is really good to you. ”
Jiang Wu raised his eyebrows and said softly, "Oh, where can you see it?"
"Miss, when he sent you back just now, you may not have noticed that in order to keep you from getting wet in the rain, he almost covered the umbrella above your head, while he himself was drenched in the rain...... Shuyue whispered.
"So, are you asking your young lady to accompany me?"
"It's not...... It's not ......" Shuyue waved her hand again and again, and said, "I just think that someone who is willing to be so good to Miss shouldn't be a bad person......
"Really?" Jiang Wu asked slightly distracted.
"Uh-huh......" Shuyue nodded repeatedly.
"That's it......" Jiang Wu retracted his expression and said, "Shuyue, you go and persuade him to leave, after all, in the blue sky and daylight, he is a man standing at the gate of our courtyard, and he will attract gossip." ”
"Yes. Shuyue hurriedly responded and trotted out of the room.
After a while, she ran back again, out of breath and said, "Miss, the Silent Night Boy is gone,"
"Now that you're gone, forget it. "Jiang Wu got into the quilt and lay down, it doesn't matter if it's authentic.
"Miss......" Shuyue whispered, "Silent Night Boy has been in the rain for so long in order to send you back, aren't you worried that he will get sick?"
Jiang Wu turned his back and quipped, "So, you can't bear to let you young lady and me accompany him in the rain, right?"
"No......" Shuyue said embarrassedly: "The slave maid wants to ask the young lady if she wants to send some medicine...... In case he ......"
"No need...... Jiang Wu said: "If you want to send medicine, you should send it after he is sick......
The rain continued to fall until the second half of the night, when it slowly stopped.
The coolness after the rain made the depression of late autumn come early, and the news of Mrs. Jiang's return to the house in less than half an hour early the next morning alarmed the entire mansion.
Jiang Wu was shaken by Shuyue Shuying and woke up from her sleep, but her little face was dyed with a thin layer of red, as if she was sick.
"Miss...... What's wrong with you......" Shuying tentatively probed the temperature between Jiang Wu's foreheads, but just after touching it, she quickly withdrew her hand and shouted: "Shuyue, come and see, is Miss sick?"
Shuyue, who was busy in the room, heard the sound, and hurriedly trotted over, and also probed the temperature between Jiang Wu's foreheads, and said with a heavy face: "Miss, this is sick, Shuying, you go and send someone to ask for a doctor......
