"Absurd!" The old lady was very angry, "When did our Chu family get a girl to choose from? It's an honor for her that you are willing to redeem her. How dare she... dare to make so many demands?"
"
"Grandma, you don't understand what kind of woman Ruyan is!" Chu Xiu said excitedly: "Although she falls into love, she has a supreme heart. She is the most perfect woman in my mind."
"That's enough, Ah Xiu!" Aunt Liu interrupted him, "Since you come from a happy family, you can't be perfect. You are the second young master of the Chu family, how can you not understand this truth?"
"After all, you still look down on her family background!" Chu Xiu said angrily: "So what if she is from a good family background. She is as noble as my mother, but she was forced to die in the Jinluan Palace by you jackals, tigers and leopards? Yes.
I think there is no good person in your Chu family, nor is he worthy of a woman as good as my mother and Ruyan!"
"Rebellion... You are really rebelling!" The old lady was very angry at what he said, "As the son of the Chu family, you actually look down on the Chu family so much. Do we, the Chu family, owe you something?!"
Chu Xiu instinctively wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Chu Ling in time, "That's enough, Ah Xiu, if you continue talking, you will hurt others and yourself."
Chu Xiu choked for a moment and had to keep his mouth shut, but he didn't keep it shut for long before he said angrily: "In short, I have to be like smoke in this life!"
With that said, he threw away his hand and left the scene angrily.
As soon as Chu Xiu left, the old lady felt even more helpless, "What a shame, what a shame, this kid is here to collect debts, right?!"
Chu Xiu never accomplished a single good thing from Liuzhou to the capital. No wonder the old lady felt this way.
Chu Ling and Shi Chunfen looked at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes. They thought that the misunderstanding between them and Chu Xiu was resolved, and the other party would change his mind and start a new life. Unexpectedly, he did become a new person.
It's just that he has changed from a prodigal son to an infatuated one. He is infatuated with women in brothels and has a bad relationship with pleasure. Such a change is better than staying the same.
Everyone dispersed, and Chu Ling took Shi Chunquin to find Chu Xiu. At this moment, he was furious in his room. Ji Xiaoman huddled aside, trembling with fear.
"That's enough, Ah Xiu." Chu Ling stepped forward suddenly, hugged him, and scolded: "Getting angry is not the way to solve the problem. Even if you smash the whole room, Miss Ruyan can't get in!"
Hearing the last sentence, Chu Xiu became even more furious, "Why?! Why do you all target Ruyan one by one? She is just a helpless and weak woman. What happened to me giving her a title?!"
"A helpless and weak woman?" Chu Ling was extremely amused. "A helpless and weak woman can become the number one in the largest brothel in the capital just by her beauty. Are you crazy or stupid?"
"Ah Ling!" Seeing that Chu Ling's words were becoming more and more rude, Shi Chunfen stopped him at the right time. She looked at Chu Xiu and advised him softly: "Although your brother's words are full of prejudice, they are also
It's not unreasonable. You said before that there are countless guests who want to redeem her body. Since she has the right to refuse, it means that she is not as weak as you think."
Chu Xiu looked at Shi Chunquin with a disappointed look on his face, "Do you even think of her that way?"
Shi Chunfen smiled and said bluntly: "It doesn't matter what I think of her. What matters is that after she comes in, similar malice will continue to flow. Even you can't listen to these words. If they reach her own ears, you will
Guess how embarrassed she would be?"
"This..." Chu Xiu was speechless, and then he knew the purpose of the spring equinox.
"Yes." Chu Ling also stepped forward and said: "Your sister-in-law is the best example. She is innocent and has always been kind to others, but she was forced to be so embarrassed by the rumors in the house. Change it to a brothel girl who was born in a entertainment industry.
, she is just an ordinary aunt in the Chu family, how do you think she will be bullied after entering the house?"
Chu Xiu's cheeks darkened, "You all sing in harmony because you don't want me to marry Ruyan."
"Then you might as well ask yourself." Shi Chunfen said seriously: "After Ruyan comes in, can you guarantee that she will live a better life than before? If she only gets a status after entering the door, her life will be worse than before.
Oops, then what’s the point of everything you gained by betraying all your relatives?”
Chu Xiu fell silent and didn't speak for a long time.
Chu Ling walked up to him, reached out and patted his shoulder, and said comfortingly: "It's better to discuss it with her first. As long as you clarify the interests with her, maybe she won't be willing to be a concubine for you."
Chu Xiu looked up at him and said with a wry smile: "Is it possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Chu Ling became serious, "You are my younger brother, Chu Ling, the second young master of the Chu family. When did you become so unsure of yourself?"
Chu Xiu was startled, and his smile became more bitter, "Brother, outsiders don't know what my condition is, but don't you still know it?"
Since the accident a few years ago, he suffered a serious head injury. He can no longer control his emotions and will hit people from time to time.
Because of this, he has always had a very low self-esteem and felt that he could not have a complete love, so he would not refuse any woman. He firmly believed that any woman who married him was doing it for his identity, status, or money.
, fame and fortune, in short, it is absolutely impossible to marry him because of him.
Seeing his lack of confidence, Chu Ling frowned, but for a while he couldn't find anything to say to comfort him.
Since they arrived in the capital, many doctors have been called to see Chu Xiu's brain disease, but without exception they all said there was nothing that could be done because his brain showed no trauma at all from the outside. As for the inside,
His injuries simply cannot be treated by current medical standards.
Chu Xiu is lucky enough to be able to survive until now, so even if his brain injury cannot be cured, the Chu family will not criticize him harshly. Instead, they will try every means to help him cover up his brain injury.
Flaws, but no matter how you cover them up, it is always the women around him who suffer, so if he wants to meet a woman who can make him control his emotions, it is simply harder than climbing to the sky.
Ruyan is that woman.
From the moment they met until now, every time he wanted to make a move, Ruyan could use her gentleness to calm his inner restlessness. Only in front of her did he feel that he was a healthy person, not a bastard who beats women.
.
"Brother, between me and Ruyan, I need her, not she needs me. Do you understand?"
After hearing what he said, both Chu Ling and Shi Chunfen fell silent. Ji Xiaoman beside him couldn't listen anymore. He cried and wanted to rush out of the door, but Shi Chunfen reached out in time to stop him, "Xiaoman, don't do this."
