Chapter 53: Uncle's Wife
Ye Jinyi put Shen Moqi and Shen Moli on the stone couch in his courtyard, and he also sat on it to watch the two brothers and sisters play, the two little ones played on his knees or shoulders from time to time, and Chu Xiu was also in this courtyard with the three of them.

Chu Xiu looked at Ye Jinyi and said, "You should always tell me, who is Leng Xun?"
Ye Jinyi held Shen Moli in his hand and said, "You are such a smart person, isn't the answer already in your heart?"
Chu Xiu nodded self-deprecatingly: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, and I should have killed him a long time ago." ā
Ye Jinyi sneered: "It's a pity that you didn't kill him, and you won't have a chance to kill him after that." ā
Chu Xiu said, "Are you so sure?"
Ye Jinyi said: "Yes." ā
Chu Xiu said, "What if I want to kill him?"
Ye Jinyi looked at him slightly sideways and said, "Then let's see, whether Chu Yuntang dies first, or he dies first." ā
His gaze was cold and calm, and his tone was calm and firm, making it difficult for people to gamble, but not just because the stakes were too big.
Chu Xiu avoided his gaze and said, "You know, if they continue to entangle, it won't be good for us. ā
Ye Jinyi hugged Shen Moqi, who almost fell off his shoulder, and said, "I know." ā
Chu Xiu asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Ye Jinyi said: "Don't do anything." ā
Hearing this, Chu Xiu frowned and looked up at Ye Jinyi.
Ye Jinyi fished Shen Moqi and Shen Moli out of his arms, put them on the stone couch, stood up and walked in front of Chu Xiufei, he looked at Chu Xiuqi indifferently, and said slowly for a long time: "Back then, did you do it voluntarily?"
Chu Xiu was stunned for a moment, his heart ached faintly, he knew what Ye Jinyi was asking.
He was asking if it was his Chu Xiu Fei who destroyed the Yu family with Chu Zhongyue back then.
Back then, stabbing Yu Lang Ji with a sword in front of Yu Zhanyan was not his Chu Xiu Fei voluntary,
Back then, it was not his Chu Xiu Fei who jumped off the cliff to avoid the person he loved.
He lowered his eyes and did not answer, but cold sweat broke out in his palms.
He didn't answer, but he knew full well that the choices he was forced to make would be painful for the rest of his life, and he had been so painful ever since.
"None of us have the right to interfere with their choices. ā
Ye Jinyi took another step closer to him, the tip of his nose was less than a foot away from him, and said this sentence word by word.
Hearing this, Chu Xiu raised his head suddenly, and saw Ye Jinyi's dark eyes, through those eyes, he seemed to see a person who was once very familiar, but that person was not Yu Langji.
Ye Jinyi turned around, but found that Shen Moqi had fallen asleep on the stone couch after these two sentences, and Shen Moli sat obediently next to him, and laboriously took the cloak that Ye Jinyi put aside to cover his brother.
Ye Jinyi was stunned for a while, feeling how familiar this situation was, Chu Xiu followed Ye Jinyi's gaze and looked over, and he was also stunned.
Back then, Chu Xiu was young and vigorous, and he always liked to compete with a young man of his own age, and he was diligent, so almost all those who competed with him were defeated in his hands.
Except for one person, that person is called Yu Langji.
After Chu Xiuyan lost to Yu Langji, he would always try two more games with Yu Langji when he was looking for Yu Zhanyan, and whenever Yu Zhanyan was at this time, he would sit under the begonia tree on the side and watch them compete, but he always lost.
After the two of them had a fight, they would lie on the grass under the begonia tree with Yu Zhanyan and watch the sky, or listen to Yu Zhanyan tell some martial arts or novel stories.
At these times, Yu Langji would sleep directly on his back with his arms pillowed, and Yu Zhanyan would untie his cloak and cover Yu Langji's body.
Chu Xiuyan felt that he was a little jealous, although the other party was his future brother-in-law, he still pouted at Yu Zhanyan with some dissatisfaction, every time at this time, Yu Zhanyan would lie down on him with a helpless smile, his head resting on his shoulder, and he would also stretch out his arm to let Yu Zhanyan pillow.
During that time, it should be the most complete and happiest time for the three of them.
Ye Jinyi smiled bitterly, walked to the stone couch, and rubbed the top of Shen Moli's hair.
Shen Moli looked at him and said glutinously: "Uncle, my brother is asleep." ā
Ye Jinyi said softly: "Uncle took my brother back to sleep." ā
Seeing Shen Moli nodding obediently, he picked up Shen Moqi and returned to his room, put Shen Moqi on the bed, took off his coat for him, and carefully tucked the quilt for him before coming out.
But when he just stepped out of the door, he saw Chu Xiu sitting on the stone couch, hugging Shen Moli, his eyes were full of love, and his eyes seemed to be a little red, so he stopped in place.
Shen Moli obediently wiped Chu Xiu's tears that were about to overflow, and said cautiously, "Uncle, why are you crying?"
Chu Xiu tried his best to pull out a smile and said, "If my wife is still here, our children should be as cute as you." ā
Shen Moli reached out and touched Chu Xiu's cheek, as if to comfort: "What about the uncle's wife?"
Chu Xiu smiled bitterly: "Leave me." ā
Shen Moli seemed to understand and said, "Why didn't Uncle get your wife back?"
Chu Xiu lowered his head and said, "She will never come back." ā
He rarely appears to be so depressed, and every time he does this, it must be for the person named Yu Zhanyan.
Ye Jinyi stood at the door of the room and watched all this, without making a sound, nor taking a step forward, he began to hesitate, not knowing if it was the right choice for him to hide his identity like this now, and whether it was the right choice to appear in front of everyone with the name of Yu Langji.
Because when he saw Chu Xiuping's appearance at this time, he was a little distressed.
However, obviously, he had already let go.
He fixed his expression, strode over and picked up Shen Moli, and said coldly: "Zhanyan is not married to you, it is better for you to put it down as soon as possible." ā
In less than a stick of incense, Shen Moli also fell asleep in Ye Jinyi's arms, Ye Jinyi put Shen Moli back on the bed, and ordered the ghost to take care of them in the room, and then walked out of the inner garden with Chu Xiuyi.
When they walked to the outer courtyard, Ji Ling was gone, leaving only Chu Yuntang lying on the stone table in the courtyard sobbing. Chu Xiuyi's face tightened, and he was about to walk over, but he was pulled by Ye Jinyi's arm.
"Leave her alone. Ye Jinyi turned his head sideways and said slowly to Chu Xiuyi, then let go of his arm, turned around and walked outside, just took a few steps, remembered something, turned his head and said, "You guys can stay in peace." ā
The sun was sinking in the west, and only red clouds were left on the horizon.
Ye Jinyi found Ji Ling on a relatively remote roof in the city, at that time, Ji Ling was sitting on the roof watching the people below, his eyes were calm and distant, and he didn't know what he was thinking. It wasn't until Ye Jinyi sat down beside him that he came back to his senses.
"How did Sister know I was here?" asked Ji Ling, looking sideways at Ye Jinyi.
"People who are good at light work always seem to feel that high places are the safest places. Ye Jinyi handed a pot of wine in his hand to Ji Ling, and also looked at the people coming and going below.
When the sun was about to set, the market was slowly getting less crowded, but Ye Jinyi knew that this was only temporary, because at night, the market would be more lively than during the day.
"What do you think, Sister?" Ji Ling took a sip of wine and lowered his head and asked.
"Yuntang's matter?" Ye Jinyi asked tentatively, but without waiting for Ji Ling's answer, he continued, "No matter what you choose, Sister Ah will not interfere." ā
"I used to just want to take her to live my life in peace, but the moment I regained my memory, I knew it was impossible. Ji Ling said dejectedly.
"There are a lot of seemingly impossible things in this world. Ye Jinyi chuckled, but there was depression and helplessness in her tone, "You have never tried, how do you know that it is impossible." ā
"Sister?" Ji Ling put down the wine jug in his hand and looked at Ye Jinyi with some surprise.
Ye Jinyi raised his hand and patted Ji Ling's shoulder, and said softly: "If you want to leave, I won't stop you." As long as you are happy in the future, Sister Ah will be relieved. ā
"I know Sister A's is for my good. Ji Ling stood up, his black clothes and black hair fluttering in the wind, looking like a sharp black eagle, and he added, "But the revenge of killing my father cannot be avenged." ā
Hearing this, Ye Jinyi's face did not change, but he shook his head slightly and sighed in his heart.
"Sister. Ji Ling seemed to suddenly remember something, and half-squatted down to look at Ye Jinyi and said, "Do you remember the woman who recruited relatives in the martial arts competition?"
Su Jiu'er.
Ye Jinyi's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ji Ling and said, "Remember, what's wrong?"
"Yuntang, no, on the day Chu Yuntang was taken away, she led people to save us. Ji Ling said in a low voice, with doubts in his tone.
Ye Jinyi nodded, he knew before that Su Jiu'er was doing things for Chu Xiuyuan, and it was not necessary for Chu Xiuyi to secretly protect Chu Yuntang when Chu Xiuyi went to Tianyin Pavilion.
Ye Jinyi subconsciously asked: "I have always forgotten to ask, who was the one who kidnapped Chu Yuntang that day?"
Ji Ling thought for a moment before he said, "I don't recognize those people, I only remember that the person in the lead used a serpentine sword." ā
"Do you see clearly that it's a serpentine sword?" Ye Jinyi asked next.
"Yes, it's a serpentine sword, and there's a green fluorite on it. Ji Ling thought for a moment.
Ye Jinyi asked again: "During that time, did Wuji Gate move again?"
Ji Ling said: "Yes, it seems that he killed a few masters of Fengyutang, and after the accident, Fengyutang dispersed." ā
"I see. Hearing this, Ye Jinyi suddenly chuckled, "I should have thought of it a long time ago." ā
"Sister, what's wrong?" Ji Ling couldn't help but ask when he heard Ye Jinyi's muttering.
"It's fine. Ye Jinyi stood up, looked up at the moon he saw, his face was a little solemn, and he looked sideways at Ji Ling, "Ah Ling, you go back first and tell Chu Xiu that I am waiting for him in the Red Sleeve Academy in the city." ā
"Yes, Sister. With that, Ji Ling jumped to his feet, and soon disappeared into the moonlit roof.
