Chengchun looked at Su Xubai in front of him and said nothing for a long time. Hongdou stood outside, listening to their conversation, feeling frightened.
Of course Su Xubai knew that it was impossible for Chengchun to reveal the person who helped her behind the scenes. He walked to Chengchun and gently wrapped his fingertips around the broken hair behind Chengchun's ears: "Do you feel that you won't tell anyone?"
, I can’t find it?”
Chengchun lowered his eyes, and the hands hanging by his sides clenched into fists unconsciously.
"What kind of friends can you have in that place in the capital? They are just the few you have met, such as Xu Ziqing, for example, Meng Shaoqing!" Su Xubai looked into Cheng Chun's eyes and said word by word.
When Su Xubai faced Cheng Chun, most of the time he was very gentle and gentle, and he looked like a scholar. But now, his eyes were as dark as a dark valley, and Cheng Chun looked at it, only
I felt a chill running down my spine. He seemed to have become a little different during her absence!
"Su Xubai, Cheng Chun, who was your concubine, is dead, and I have nothing to do with you now!" Cheng Chun raised his hand and knocked off Su Xiubai's hand, "Let me go, I will go find myself."
Mom and Dad, I won’t bother you!”
Su Xubai paused for a moment, looked at his beaten hand, was stunned for a long time, and then sneered: "Let you go? Are you afraid that you have forgotten the situation outside? What you have encountered is just a drop in the bucket! If you
If you are not afraid of death, I can let you go!"
Cheng Chun felt suffocated, and the red hair tie full of filth suddenly floated through his mind.
Su Xubai looked at Chengchun's face that suddenly turned pale, knowing that she was also afraid, and did not intend to continue to embarrass her, so he returned to the desk and sat down: "If you are my Chengchun who was carried back in a sedan chair, then you
My parents are naturally my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Of course I will not see them in danger, but if you are unwilling to admit that you are mine, then your parents will naturally have nothing to do with me!
"
"Are you threatening me?" Cheng Chun looked at Su Xubai in front of him with some disbelief.
"Isn't it possible?" Su Xubai raised his head and looked at Cheng Chun, "If you want to leave, you can leave now, but I can guarantee you that you will never see your parents or your younger brother again in this life.
!”
"you……"
"I haven't seen you for a year, but I've grown a lot taller. He studies very hard, and now he looks like a gentle scholar. Don't you plan to meet him properly?" Su Xubai raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Chun, his eyebrows raised slightly.
, it is clear that Cheng Chun’s lifeline is in control.
Chengchun was very angry: "Su Xubai, why didn't I know that you are so insidious?"
Su Xubai paused for a moment, then smiled: "Really? What a pity, I didn't know you hated me so much!"
Chengchun turned around and left, slamming the door shut as if to vent his anger.
Hong Dou, who was waiting outside, had a look of fear on her face. This was the first time she saw Cheng Chun being so tough when facing Su Xubai, with no intention of backing down.
Chengchun was very angry, and his heart was pounding. When he was walking on the road, he saw a plump and round toad, and he kicked it out in anger.
Hongdou, who was following Chengchun, watched with her own eyes as the innocent toad flew out from in front of her eyes, and even just uttered a "croak" before disappearing into the grass not far away.
"Madam, calm down!" Hongdou quickly walked to Chengchun and comforted her softly.
"He is just a scoundrel! He is just a ruffian wearing the skin of a scholar!" Cheng Chun yelled angrily, "He took my family away and used this to threaten me. Is this something a human being can do?"
Hongdou stood aside and didn't dare to say a word.
Ji Lan, who happened to be passing by, glanced at Cheng Chun, who was blushing with anger, and laughed: "I thought the lady would never be angry, but I didn't expect that she actually has a bad temper!"
Chengchun suddenly swallowed the words he spoke.
When she returned to her yard and saw the two people guarding the gate, she felt a throbbing pain in her temples.
After returning to the house and sitting down, Hongdou said: "Madam, if it weren't for me this time, we would both be dead and see you again! You just have to be patient and wait until this chaos subsides and I see you again."
My mother’s family is gone, let’s make a long-term plan!”
Cheng Chun lowered his head and said nothing.
Seeing that she was silent, Hongdou couldn't continue talking. It happened that it was time for Chengchun to take medicine, so she went out to get the medicine for Chengchun. When she walked to the door of the courtyard, she turned her head and saw someone holding her chest
Woad standing in the corner.
After Hongdou came back, she never spoke to Islam. She would subconsciously avoid him when she met him. Today, too, when she was about to walk away, Ismail suddenly walked up and grabbed Hongdou: "A
I live in the house and I can’t see you when you look up, do you think you can keep avoiding me?”
The moment her hand was held, Hongdou's whole body froze, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses.
She slowly turned around and looked at Isatis in front of her: "You are the person next to me, there is no good in getting too close to me!"
"Then do you still remember that you are also the person beside me?" Shilan looked at Hongdou helplessly, "You were not with Cheng Xiaoniang from the beginning. In the earliest days, you were also the person beside me. You
Now I have been completely bribed by her, and I don’t even remember who I am!”
Hongdou was silent for a long time, then raised his head and looked at Shilan: "Did you come to me just to say this? If you just came to me to say this, then you can think that I betrayed you, but now, I only think
I am my mistress!"
Jiuluan looked at Hongdou in front of her and couldn't help but frown: "So you are even willing to risk your own death for her and jump into the river in the cold winter? Are you crazy?"
"What if it was me who jumped into the river?" Hongdou raised his eyes and looked at Isatis in front of him, "I know what you want to say. My wife didn't ask me to do it at all. When she left, she didn't even tell me that I was secretly following her.
Then I followed her all the way here!"
Woad was speechless, and after a long time she said: "Is it worth it?"
"It's worth it!" Hongdou smiled, "As long as I stay with my wife, no matter how much hardship I endure, I think it's all worth it!"
Isatis just looked at Hongdou, silent.
When Hongdou saw that he was silent, he bowed: "If there is nothing else, then I will go and get busy first!"
Just when Hong Dou was about to leave, Ji Lan suddenly said: "What about me?"
Chengchun stopped.
"When you jumped into the river desperately, did you ever think about me?" Woad's voice was very soft, but it was enough for Hongdou to hear.
Hongdou lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, then said: "No!"
Isatis swallowed harder: "Aren't you worried that I will be sad?"
"Aren't you fine now?" Hongdou looked back at Isatis, she smiled lightly, "Look at you, you are still so tall, still so strong, still so handsome, you eat well, drink well, you have
What’s there to be sad about?”
Jiuluan looked at the smiling Hongdou in front of her, a moment of sadness flashed in her eyes: "In your eyes, am I not important at all?"
Hongdou paused, still smiling: "Do you know how I escaped when I met the refugees?"
Isatis didn't say anything, just looked at Hongdou.
"When we were cornered, my wife pushed me into the water, and ran in the other direction to lure away the refugees. Do you know how scared we were at that time?" Hongdou looked at the woad in front of her.
, "We have no power to restrain the chicken, and if it falls into the hands of those people, we will be nothing but fish and meat to be slaughtered by others!"
Isatis lowered her eyes and didn't speak for a long time.
Hongdou looked at Isatis in front of her: "This is not the first time that my wife has put herself in danger to save me. She has never regarded me as a lowly servant. She really regards me as a friend and as a capable person."
What about you, the person who entrusted your life to me?"
"I also regard you as a friend, and I also..."
"So?" Hongdou laughed, "When I was beaten, it was my wife who stood in front of me, not you. Where were you when I almost died?"
Isatis' hand hanging by her side clenched her fist, and then let go of her hand in despair.
Hongdou didn't miss it anymore and turned around to leave.
Isatis could only watch her walk away, having no other reason to call her.
Just when Islam turned around in despair, she was startled by Su Xubai who was standing in the corner at some point: "Master, what are you doing standing here?"
"I came to see you originally, but seeing you talking, I didn't bother you!" Su Xubai walked out of the corner, then looked at Isatis with a decadent face, and said with a smile, "Not very good, at least you are
You still know why, don’t you?”
Jianlan looked at Su Xubai who was smiling bleakly, and for a moment, she didn't even know what to say.
"But sometimes I think about it, if a person is still here, it is already God's favor. How can there be so many demands?" Su Xubai sighed softly, "In the past, Ah Chun was always gentle and gentle.
She was smiling happily, look at how she looks today, it’s a world of difference!”
Silan thought for a long time, and then suddenly said: "Is it possible that what she looks like now is what Cheng Xiaoniang really looks like?"
Su Xubai was stunned for a moment. He just looked at the woad in front of him. After a long time, he suddenly realized: "Yes, maybe she is like this, just pretending to be harmless! A person always
How could a gentle and gentle woman do something as tough as jumping into a river?"
Silan looked at Su Xubai in front of her, and said after a long time: "Cheng Xiaoniang is not that kind of weak woman, she has a very tough temperament, but she always smiles gently and softly, which makes us feel that she is
