"Madame...... This is really not like that, since the head of Chu took her back that day, he has been entrusted to me to take care of it, Leng Fengyi has sent a message to see him many times, but he has been shirking. The rumors out there are really not credible. Forget it, I'll tell the truth again, the fight with Fang Xi at the door of the study that day, Master Chu was really injured, and it was all because of your heart to protect you, so I fought with Fang Xi to the death...... Afterwards, he was afraid that you would know that he was worried, so he didn't let anyone talk about it, and he avoided you everywhere. Of course, it's almost as good as it gets. "He really wanted to hit the wall a few times and sew his mouth in trouble.

She struggled to keep herself from crying. Which sentence is true and which is false, she can't believe it. Is it another prevarication of negotiated rhetoric? Then I felt ridiculous and pathetic: "I know I shouldn't be suspicious, but why do you always hide it from me?"

I said everything that should be said and what should not be said, but I was also melancholy: "I'm an outsider, I shouldn't have said much." But as far as I can see, Master Chu may not be really ruthless to his wife. I guess it's because I don't want Madame to get involved. It is a miracle that Mrs. is at the core of the rivers and lakes, but she can be outside the rivers and lakes. Zhao Lin tried to explain, "The humanitarian authorities are obsessed, and the friendship of the head of Chu for his wife is never said, and even rarely revealed. So Madame can't see clearly. But forgive me, an outsider, if he really doesn't care, why should he compare with Fang Xi's death force? Maybe what he does on weekdays is just hoping to leave a way out for his wife to protect himself. ”

Is that so? Who knows the sorrow of sitting in the night sky of the courtyard for many years!Who can tolerate the fact that people all over the world compare their husband to another woman's name, and that woman is so amorous......

"That's it, I can't escape it, so I'll tell you one more interesting thing. After what happened to Fang Xi, I listened to Master Chu and Uncle Wang discuss in the dart bureau for a whole night, in order to let Mrs. and Gongzi Yunyi go back to live for a while. Lined up the route for the whole night, the pick-up points along the way, and the people who responded. In the same way, Uncle Wang thought he was more verbose than walking a dart in person, and almost lost his temper with him. When the day dawned, everything stopped, and he was waiting for him to make a decision on this matter, but he said four words, and we will discuss it another day! Madame can think of Uncle Wang's expression...... Haha! I'm so busy all night that I want to beat him up......" Teru Lin laughed loudly, but the laughter grew more and more in the empty courtyard.

Wei Lan only felt even more lonely: "He wants to send me away? ”

Zhao Lin was almost incoherent: "This was originally planned. The white-clothed holy envoys are everywhere, the black stone cliff is not safe, and the lady is attacked, everyone feels that they should plan early. But the head of Chu finally changed his mind - perhaps because he was afraid that there would be a mistake on the way. ”

"Maybe it's just that I'm worried that I won't agree......" Wei Lan smiled uncertainly, trying to contain her sadness, "Thank you, Zhaolin, for talking to me so much." The husband's body is also taken care of by Dr. Lawley. Her tone returned to her usual gentleness and modesty. It's just that Zhaolin may be able to heal Chu Tao's injury, but her heart is cold, but she doesn't know where to go to treat it.

"Madame didn't care too much. Alas, if you let Master Chu know that I have poked such a big hole, you may not know how to dig a hole for me. Let Shiyu know that the sky is not falling apart...... Looks like I'm going to have to kneel tonight!"

Wei Lan didn't notice: "If I don't say it, they won't know." ”

Li Zhaolin's thank-you voice did not enter her heart, vaguely, a thought popped up: or one day, not to be his burden, for him to be fulfilled, for her or liberated.

When it was dark, Chu Tao finally came back, and she saw him sitting in the study again, with a little tiredness, although he was sitting and drinking tea, the tea couldn't suppress the cough at all. He beckoned her to lay out the paper and study the ink, but he only cared about writing and writing, and even forgot the bloodstained silk handkerchief in his palm. She suddenly understood what the situation of Zhaolin's so-called good was almost there, and she felt a fierce pain in her heart.

"I'll write it for you," she said.

"Qin Dashao's letter, I have to reply in person. Out of the way, it'll be fine for a while. ”

I can only burn incense and pray for him. When the tea was cold, she changed it a little. The ink faded, and she added a little more. However, all that was left of his eyes was the letterhead. How important is it, Wei Lan thought, but everything related to the rivers and lakes is always more important than her. She didn't want to get in the way of him anymore.

She quietly put the study key back to the corner of the desk, and cautiously retreated to the door, lest she lose her courage as soon as he looked up. But Chu Tao didn't seem to notice anything. "I'm ......," she said, turning her back to her, "to-morrow, I'm ...... Take Yunyi back to live for a while. You don't have to worry...... I will...... Take care of him. The last few words were so light that only she could hear them. It doesn't matter, he won't care. She consoled herself with a swift escape.

She hurried back to Zhilan Garden, but lost all her strength. She looked around and persuaded herself to pack her bags, but she didn't have the courage to open any of the cabinets. The only things that fell into her sight were the lattice of the window he leaned on, the flowers he admired, the chair he sat on, and the teacup from which he had drank. How can this be taken away? She leaned against the bed in a heartbeat, staring out the window at the swaying shadows of the flowers.

She couldn't get rid of it, she just wanted to be fulfilled. But how easy was it to accomplish? She didn't even know how to find her rhythm in a space without his breath. If we don't wait for him any longer, what will we do to fill this more empty time? But if there are no flower admirers, for whom should these flowers bloom?

Why is this constant? His thoughts were interrupted by a sharp cough, and he noticed that he was standing outside the house, silently watching her. She shuddered in horror.

But he laughed: "Am I so terrible? I'm sorry, unconsciously, I brought that fierce and evil look home." More than a dozen steps away, you could feel his helplessness. The purple clothes are still chic, but they can't hide his thinness. Junyi's look was replaced by a slightly frowning smile. She had never seen Chu Tao work so hard to hide his sadness—the sadness overflowed his deep eyes, making only a blur of gloom in the corners of his eyes.

suddenly remembered that many years ago in the legend, he stood in Leng Fengyi's boudoir and tried his best to keep it. Could it be that he stood so sadly back then, watching his sweetheart pack up? There was a pang of pain in his heart, I don't know if it was for him or for himself.

"Lan, is this what you mean?"

She nodded slightly.

"Homesick, or is it because you've heard something?"

She was silent.

He didn't ask anymore, just stepped forward and hugged her gently. Jianghu taught him to be sharp and introverted, hiding himself in a hard and cold shell, so that she could no longer see his heart. But she could know the burning temperature of his palm. It is still the copper key that transmits this temperature. He put the study key back in her palm and clenched it: "Lan, put it away." ”

He had something to say, and Veran understood. But he said angrily: "Is this to let people go or let people stay?" but tears have slid down his cheeks. wanted to break free, but his arm was as hard as iron, and he firmly clamped her: "Even if you want to go, put it away, you are the mistress here." ”

She was also stubborn, but she couldn't resist him.

Chu Tao stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, but somehow, his eyes were red. He immediately turned his back, and soon, a tear rolled down. So much so that he clenched his fists tightly.

Veran's tears fell like beads. All the jealousy and sadness were wiped away by this tear. She clearly knew, clearly saw it, the moment when the sword was added, there was no hesitation, and there was a hand in the falling flowers...... "I'm sorry." She said, "I don't want to be a drag on you." ”

He let out a long sigh, turned his head, and stroked her soft hair: "If it's because of Leng Fengyi, don't think about it." I'll give you an explanation when the time is right. At the moment, I don't want you to get involved, just because it's too dangerous. ”

She shook her head slightly, every year, of course, she didn't care about it anymore. Even tired of it.

He helped her shoulder, "I've been bothering you, Lan." I thought about letting you go the other day - it's better than following me, and it's not safe here. But I was undecided—I was scolded by Uncle Wang that day, saying that I was indecisive and would hurt you sooner or later. It's ridiculous, but I've never been so embarrassed as this one – I want to go the right way, but whether I let you stay or leave, it's going to be the wrong thing - I missed it once, and this time I don't want to make a mistake, but there's no right way to go. ”

She smiled simply: "Then let me go, and you won't be embarrassed." No one will blame you. ”

"It's easy to say, but for you, it's just crying in a different place where I can't hear you. As I said, if you feel wronged, you can punish me. But I don't allow you to leave like that, that's punishing yourself. ”

Her face was slightly red, and she suddenly said stubbornly: "When will I get your permission?"

Chu Tao was speechless, and only hugged her into his arms. I'm afraid he himself doesn't know what he is trying to do to keep an unloved woman by his side for so many years. Perhaps, when getting along becomes a habit, it is reluctant. It's just that he has a hard mouth and refuses to admit it.

She leaned lightly on his shoulder, and was speechless. Accustomed to his various prohibitions, and also accustomed to silent companionship.

"Lan, let me be selfish. He hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead gently, "If you really want to leave, I'll arrange ...... in a few days."

"Listen to you. She said.

A shout suddenly erupted outside the courtyard: "Master Chu!" Only Li Zhaolin, who didn't know much about the rules, would shout in Zhilan Garden, and the others didn't even dare to approach.

Chu Tao pushed the window and said solemnly: "What's the matter?"

Zhao Lin caught a glimpse of Svilan beside him, and suddenly said nothing.

Chu Tao knew his concerns, and asked directly, "Is there something wrong with Leng Fengyi?"

Zhao Lin nodded.

Chu Tao immediately realized something, and made a plan in his heart. "Prepare two horses, wait for me outside the back door, and I'll go with you later." ”

As the voice was answered, he went.

Veran was stunned, grabbed his sleeve tightly, and gradually let go of her hand.

Chu Tao wanted to explain, but she shook her head and booed, stopping him: "The matter is urgent, don't worry, wait for you to come back." ”

"I'll come back and tell you. He smiled gently, remembered something again, and advised: "There is a letter from me to Qin Dashao in the study, a few words of greeting, you can renew it for me, hand it over to Uncle Wang, and send it out at dawn." ”

She nodded slightly, watching his back flutter away. Like every time. What others see the most is his smile, but the most she looks at him is his back. The moment I married into the Chu family, I really didn't know that there would be so many long waits......
