Chapter 42 Wounded Parting Section 7 Husband and wife
"My mother said that my father must not be allowed to see it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Fan Yu replied honestly.
"Then ---- your mother told you why you didn't want me, did you see it?" asked Fan Yuncheng in a trembling voice.
"---- Daddy, don't embarrass the child. Fan Yu's tears almost fell, "My mother said that there are some things that my father doesn't know is a good thing, if my father knows, he will definitely check it, and then ----my mother will no longer be able to protect you." ”
Fan Yu's words finally confirmed the speculation in Fan Yuncheng's heart during these days, it turned out that Ling Xiao had hidden so many things from herself, all to protect herself---- thinking that she knew herself too well, if she knew those things, she would definitely think of a way to solve them, and at that time----
Fan Yuncheng calmed down his emotions, and he whispered to Fan Yu: "Yu'er, your mother has been too tired ---- these years, and there are some things that should not have been borne by her in the first place---- Yu'er, I came today, just to take a look at the golden lock, I must know the truth of the matter, and ---- from today on, I will protect your mother and you, Yu'er, you must believe your father's words, some things must be done by me." ”
"----Daddy, I promised my mother that I wouldn't show you. Fan Yu still kept shaking his head.
"Daddy knows there's a letter in it, so I'll just look at it. Fan Yuncheng is still insisting.
After Fan Yu heard his words, he knew that he couldn't hold on anymore, his father had already told the secret of the golden lock, so he must know a lot of things.
He had to take out the golden lock from his bosom and handed it to Fan Yuncheng's hand, when Fan Yuncheng saw the golden lock, he remembered the scene when he went to Yongzhou to take office, that Zhang Yuanzhi pointed hard at the golden lock on Fan Yu's chest, the deep meaning in his eyes is still in Fan Yuncheng's mind---- and now when it is really in his hands, he realizes that it is so heavy, so heavy that he is about to lose it.
He looked closely at the golden lock, trying to find a place to open it. Fan Yu silently stepped forward and pressed down the bulging protrusion, and the golden lock that had been opened once was opened again at this time, and the silk silk, which was as thin as a cicada's wings, appeared in front of Fan Yuncheng.
Fan Yuncheng took out the silk silk with a trembling hand, and after unfolding it, he saw the private seal that belonged to Master Zhang Yuanzhi alone, which was stamped in the lower left corner of the letter. He read the contents of the letter carefully several times before putting it back in the golden lock.
"Daddy, you're alright. Fan Yu saw his pale face and asked with some concern.
Fan Yuncheng shook his head: "Yu'er, Daddy is fine, Daddy is fine now, it's just that I ---- go home and confess my mistake to your mother." ”
"Then you tell your mother, you insisted on seeing it, and I didn't dare to stop you. Fan Yu was naturally afraid that his mother would be angry with him, and said in a low voice.
Fan Yuncheng laughed: "Of course it's my fault, it has nothing to do with you." It's just that you must keep this golden lock and not let anyone know about it. ”
"Daddy and mother should be well, Yu'er has grown up now, and I have to go home and serve you and my mother well. Fan Yu said solemnly.
"Yes, we'll be together as a family. Fan Yuncheng held his son in his arms and refused to let go for a long time, "We will definitely find a way to let you go home." ”
Their father and son still had to separate in the end, Fan Yuncheng was reluctant to let go of his son who was holding tightly, he forcibly smiled and watched his son leave him, and after he thanked the abbot, he and Zhang Zhenyue slowly went down the mountain together.
After returning to Dali Temple, Fan Yuncheng remembered that he had not eaten water and rice for a whole day, and he didn't care about drinking saliva, so he began to tell Zhang Zhenyue carefully.
"My lord, you go home alone, what if something goes wrong? I'd better send you back. ”
"How can it be a person? Isn't there still a palanquin man following me? Besides, the official affairs in this Dali Temple are busy, so I can't delay many major events because of my personal affairs. Fan Yuncheng shook his head, he refused to let Zhang Zhenyue suffer with him again.
"Then be careful all the way, and you can rest assured about things here. ”
"Don't startle the snake. Fan Yuncheng said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, sir. Zhang Zhenyue naturally understood the meaning of his words.
Fan Yuncheng stood outside the gate of his house, his heart was entangled, thinking that after his family came to the capital, his cousin Fan Yunzong prepared this house for himself, although it was not very big, but everything in it was available, he and Ling Xiao were very satisfied, in the past few years, he had neglected Ling Xiao and refused to return home, and the changes in this family must have been great.
Thinking of this, he plucked up the courage to tap on the knocker. It was Xing'er who came to open the door for him, and after Xing'er saw him, she was stunned, she didn't expect Fan Yuncheng to take the initiative to come back.
"How is Fan Fu?" Fan Yuncheng remembered that Fan Fu was kicked by the gangster last night, and he didn't know what the injury was.
"My husband and wife showed you last night, but I didn't hurt my muscles and bones, so I just had to rest for two days. Xing'er hurriedly said, "Master, do you want me to go and tell Madame that you are back." ”
"Where is Madame now?" Fan Yuncheng hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Madame is in the hut in the backyard at the moment, and she says that she has some needlework to do----"
"Xing'er, please go and tell Madame, I want to wait for her in the bedroom, there are some things that need to be discussed with her alone. Fan Yuncheng said anxiously.
"I'm going to deliver a letter to Madame. Apricot hurried to the backyard.
Fan Yuncheng stood in the courtyard, it was late autumn at this time, and the yellow leaves were blown into the air with a cold autumn wind, for some reason, Fan Yuncheng's heart became a little desolate, winter was coming soon, but he didn't know how to make spring come faster, faster.
Ling Xiao heard Xing'er's message, her heart was shocked, this husband has come back a few times since Fan Yu went to Tongtai Temple to become a monk, she can't remember, the most impressive time is when Mrs. Na Hui came to bully her, her husband was angry, but after he slept for a night, he woke up and disappeared from him, today he suddenly rushed back, did something happen?
She slowly walked to her bedroom, she felt her legs heavy with each step, and when she came to the door, she suddenly lost the courage to open the door, she stood in front of the door and stayed silently for a while, she had already thought about many possibilities in her heart, she still did not guess Fan Yuncheng's real motive.
She smiled bitterly, what if the real motive was guessed? Fan Yuncheng was so stubborn, she knew better than anyone else, on the wedding night, just because she didn't want to marry her, she almost strangled her to death, and after an unexpected encounter with herself, she wanted to marry her alive and dead, after she suddenly remembered these things, her heart couldn't help but soften, isn't it Fan Yuncheng's stubborn character that she likes? No matter what happens today, he is still her own man, the man she wants to protect with her life, what are you afraid of? She didn't need to be afraid of anything, she had to face it, and with that she pushed the door open and walked in.
It was nearly dusk, and the late autumn nights always came early, and the light in the room was a little dim, and she walked in slowly to light the candle on the table.
"Ling Xiao, let's not light the lights tonight, how about we talk like this?" Fan Yuncheng suddenly stopped her.
Ling Xiao was not reluctant, she had to sit down at the table, looked at her husband sitting opposite her, and quietly waited for him to speak first.
Fan Yuncheng stood up and moved the chair he was sitting on in front of Ling Xiao before sitting down. He seemed to have too many words to say, and he didn't know where to start, so he thought about it over and over again.
Ling Xiao was calm, she didn't say anything, Fan Yuncheng was a little abnormal tonight, she didn't know what was going on, she could only sit there and wait slowly.
"Ling Xiao, do you remember what you said on my way to Yongzhou?" Fan Yuncheng opened his mouth with difficulty.
Ling Xiao shook his head: "I don't remember." ”
"You said that there are eight sufferings in life: birth, old age, sickness, death, love and separation, resentment for a long time, can't ask for it, and can't let go. Since Jun'er went north with the army, I seem to have tasted all these eight hardships----" Fan Yuncheng looked at his wife in front of him, Ling Xiao still sat there calmly as usual, and did not answer.
"After what happened to Jun'er, I blamed myself bitterly, I hated myself for being useless, I couldn't wronged my son to become the son-in-law of those filthy and filthy people, and I couldn't bring my son back from the front barracks, I could only watch him go to death---- Lingxiao, you never told me about the pain in your heart, you were always silent, and you didn't say anything----"
Ling Xiao's face began to lose its blood color after hearing this, she looked at Fan Yuncheng with some surprise, Fan Yuncheng in front of her slowly stretched out his hand and held Ling Xiao's hands in his hands, he continued with tears in his eyes: "You taught Yu'er to memorize those Buddhist scriptures, I was really angry with you, until Yu'er was asked by the emperor to go, I resented you even more, and began to snub you, because my family was leaving me one by one, why did these things happen to me Fan Yuncheng, I thought about this question day and night, but I always couldn't find the answer." ”
Ling Xiao's whole body suddenly began to tremble, she hadn't felt the tenderness that Fan Yuncheng brought her for several years, tonight when Fan Yuncheng held her hands tightly, she already knew everything, but at this time she couldn't speak, she couldn't say anything.
"After the tragedy of Lord Zhang's murder, I always wanted to find the real culprits and avenge them, but you kept stopping me and didn't want me to continue to investigate, until I saw Yu'er today, and I understood everything. ”
When Ling Xiao heard this, he suddenly stood up: "You, you went to see Yu'er?"
Fan Yuncheng also stood up, the person who became not calm at this time was the wife in front of him, but he was extremely calm in his heart: "Yes, I went to see Yu'er, and I also saw the secret letter in the golden lock, the secret letter left by Master Zhang. ”
"This Yu'er ----" Ling Xiao couldn't imagine that this well-behaved and obedient son dared not listen to his orders in front of his father.
"In the secret letter, Lord Zhang has already explained the sinister intentions of the sixth prince Xiao Hong to openly rebel, and after winning over his father-in-law, he threatened his father-in-law that if this matter is leaked, the whole family will die ---- Ling Xiao, do you remember that day Yu'er wanted to live in his father-in-law's mansion, and his father-in-law strongly opposed it? Presumably, my father-in-law already knows that the lives of his whole family are not guaranteed, and he definitely can't put the lives of our whole family into it, so he doesn't allow our whole family to stay in the mansion, Ling Xiao, you are a hundred times smarter than me, what I said is accurate?"
"You ---- finally come back once, and I'll ask Xing'er to cook you some delicious meals. Ling Xiao suddenly changed the topic, she didn't want to continue listening.
"I've already told them, don't come over and disturb us, Ling Xiao, what I'm going to talk to you about tonight is extremely important, can you listen to me finish?" Fan Yuncheng asked sincerely.
Ling Xiao shook her head, the last thing she wanted to hear at this time was what Fan Yuncheng was about to say, this was something she was afraid to see a few years ago, she would rather Fan Yuncheng rush back to Dali Temple immediately and never return to this home again, it was better than hearing what he was going to say.
"I don't want to hear it, Master Fan, I'm really happy that you're back, it's just that ---- just have some words, and it's better to put them in my heart. ”
Fan Yuncheng smiled bitterly: "I know that you are more stubborn than me, but today I am not Fan Yuncheng, nor Master Fan, nor Master Fan, I am the Cheng Gongzi you met at the beginning, Ling Xiao, my Cheng Gongzi, can I talk to you?"
The three words of Cheng Gongzi in Fan Yuncheng's mouth completely broke the bottom line of defense that Ling Xiao had worked hard for several years to build up in her heart, and she almost cried out loud, but she was extremely determined, and she tried her best not to cry, because she knew that her crying could not solve any problems.
"Ling Xiao, since the incident in Yongzhou, I have been constantly having nightmares, nightmares that I can't get rid of, every time I wake up from a dream, I am thinking, why bad luck has befallen our Fan family again and again? Until our husband and wife turned against each other, the Fan family withered---- until I met last night, I suddenly figured out that I had been ignoring the problem for so long----"
“----”
"Someone must have made a fuss about me, and these so-called disasters will befall the Fan family one after another. Fan Yuncheng slowly walked in front of Ling Xiao, "Ling Xiao, you must have seen all this early, you began to secretly track down the real culprit behind the scenes, and I, the husband, had better not know all this, so that you can resolve the crisis of our Fan family without my knowledge, Ling Xiao, my guess is accurate?"
