Yu Ziang didn't understand why everyone told him not to come again, but after hearing what Jiang Fang asked Zhou Bing to bring to Sheng, he suddenly sobered up.
Yes, Mrs. Sheng didn't say she liked Xiao Bai so much. She had been looking for a well-matched family for herself, but she kept saying that she would accept Xiao Bai as her goddaughter.
If she really liked Xiao Bai, she could just ask Xiao Bai to marry her. Why go through all the trouble? It turned out that she had always looked down on Xiao Bai.
So what she said today was all false, right? It was just to keep herself from being angry with her. In the end, she still didn't like Xiao Bai, and even kept forcing Xiao Bai to leave her.
After Yu Ziang returned to the mansion, he did not go to see Sheng, because he knew that even if he went to Sheng to reason, it would not change the fact.
Xiaobai drove him away, and Sister Ah Fang also drove him away. At this moment, Yu Ziang felt as if he had been abandoned.
But he couldn't cry. He only felt a tightness in his chest. He locked himself in the room and refused to eat. Mr. Sheng came several times, but he never opened the door.
This made Mrs. Sheng very anxious. She pulled Zhou Bing and asked, "What did they say to Zi Ang in the Jiang family courtyard?"
Zhou Bing shook his head: "Not really, but later Jiang Fang and Jiang Xiaobai told the young master not to go to the courtyard. I didn't hear what they said."
Mrs. Sheng sighed, what was supposed to come has come, but that's fine, there is no need to keep planning carefully for fear of being blamed by Yu Ziang.
This time it was Jiang Xiaobai who pushed Yu Ziang away. She was more sensible and knew that she was not worthy and did not insist on him, otherwise she would suffer a lot.
I originally thought that Yu Ziang's temper would be cured after a few days, but that night, Yu Ziang suddenly developed a fever, and Mrs. Sheng hurriedly called for a doctor.
Originally I wanted to invite Jiang Fang, but when I thought about Jiang Fang calling Zhou Bingdai today, I felt a little embarrassed for a while, so I had no choice but to invite other famous doctors in the provincial capital.
The lights in Yu Mansion were brightly lit that night, and Yu Ziang called Jiang Xiaobai's name in his nightmare. Sheng's face looked very ugly, but there was nothing she could do.
Mrs. Sheng stayed at Yu Ziang's bedside all night without closing her eyes. It was not until the rooster crowed three times that Yu Ziang woke up quietly.
But when he saw Mrs. Sheng standing beside his bed, he awkwardly turned his head to the other side.
Mrs. Sheng just sighed without saying anything else. She picked up the medicine on the table and said, "Drink some medicine. Only after drinking the medicine can you get better."
Yu Ziang said nothing, but refused to drink the medicine. Mrs. Sheng put the medicine aside and said, "Are you blaming my mother?"
Yu Ziang still didn't speak, and Mrs. Sheng continued: "Mother knows that you are blaming me, but have you ever thought that what you heard is what they said and what they thought. How have you ever heard of mother?"
explain?"
Seeing that Young Master Yu Ziang had some reaction, Mrs. Sheng continued: "Mother does not dislike Xiaobai. I also know that you like Xiaobai and want to marry her, but have you ever thought about it? You are now the son of the prefect.
Mom is not saying that you look down on anyone, but you have thought that if you really marry Xiaobai back home in the future, you will know about Xiaobai's illness, and Mom will not dislike it.
But do you also want the children born in the future to live in being scolded by others for the rest of their lives? It’s okay to give birth to a normal child, but what if it’s the same as Xiaobai?
Have you ever thought about the feelings of a child? You are the child of a magistrate. There are three unfilial piety, and having no offspring is the most important. Your mother can let you marry Xiaobai, but the one who carries on the family line must be a normal child, right?
Then if you take concubines in the future, Xiaobai is an orphan and helpless. The water in the backyard is deep. Can you, a man, really protect Xiaobai all the time?
Not to mention your backyard, those colleagues who will be with you in the future are all married to rich ladies. Doesn't your behavior make Xiaobai even more unable to hold his head high among them?
You just want Xiaobai to be by your side, but have you ever thought about whether Xiaobai is willing to live in such an environment for the rest of his life? Look at Aunt Hong, what has she gained after spending most of her life calculating?
Xiaobai is a simple child. Do you think it is good for her to marry into a family like ours? If you like her, you don’t want to trap her by your side."
Yu Ziang shed tears as he listened: "But, I really can't let go of Xiaobai. I don't want her to marry someone else. We grew up together and have been together for so many years..."
Mrs. Sheng patted Yu Ziang's head and said, "My child, you are still young. When you grow up, you will know what it means to be unable to control yourself. Sometimes, not everything goes smoothly.
You always have to make a decision, and you must not act on your own initiative. You are still a child now, what happens when you grow up? Do you think you can escape by not thinking about those things? "
Yu Ziang stopped talking, but Mrs. Sheng knew that he still couldn't let go, so he continued: "Look at you, now you are reading and writing in the house without any worries.
But after Xiaobai arrived, she had to be trapped in this courtyard. The countryside was a small place and everyone had little experience, so Xiaobai disguised herself and almost no one could see it.
But in this provincial city, do you really think that everyone is as ignorant as that countryman? If everyone finds out, do you think you can protect Xiaobai?
There are so many influential people in this provincial capital, but what can you do now? You, Jiang Xiaobai, brought her to the provincial capital, and you just trapped her.
You and Xiaobai are not on the same road. If you give up what you have now and go back to find Xiaobai, if your mother doesn't stop you, you men will farm and women will weave, and you can live well.
But are you willing? The books you read are full of wonderful futures, things you have seen and never seen before. Do you really not want to see the bustling capital?
Are you really willing to stay in that village and be an ignorant countryman? You told your mother that you wanted to live in a big house in the capital, but now have you forgotten all your lofty ambitions? "
Yu Ziang gritted his teeth. He liked Xiaobai and wanted to accompany Xiaobai, but he looked forward to his future even more. To him, Langtou Village was just a well now. He didn't want to sit in a well and look at the sky.
He wanted a broader sky, wanted to be like the great figures in the book who could guide the world, and make great achievements of his own, but he couldn't give up on either of these.
Seeing that Yu Ziang was shaken, Mrs. Sheng continued: "To achieve great things, you must make choices. A person's life is long and he will pass by many things. Just take it as a scenery and look at it. Not everything can be held tightly.
