Chapter six hundred and seventieth IX: It is indeed a chicken tile dog
After Xuan Chengzi left, Ruyi spoke.
Ruyi touched Li Hua's back and said, "Uncle Chen is really kind to others. If it were Ruyi, he would never have met this Taoist priest."
Chen Changsheng said: "Taoist Master Xuanchengzi is different from his junior brother, how can he hate Wujiwu?"
Ruyi snorted lightly and said nothing more.
She hugged the raccoon flower and said, "I have to go to the embroidery workshop. I won't argue with Uncle Chen today."
"Why are we bickering again?" Chen Changsheng couldn't laugh or cry.
"Anyway."
Ruyi hummed twice, and then said: "Lihua also comes to play with me."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "Just stop running around."
Ruyi nodded, and then took the civet flower to the embroidery workshop.
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the bench to rest.
It's noon, a good time to take a rest.
However, he remembered some people and events from many years ago.
Speaking of which, he never saw Chang Shan again after the incident at the execution ground. He probably went to the world of cultivating immortals, but he didn't know what happened to him.
There were also Tong Zhihuan and Taoer. When Chen Changsheng passed Qiuyuefang before, Chen Changsheng didn't find any trace of them, and he didn't know where they went.
Chen Changsheng recalled several friends from many years ago, but in the end, all of them had become separated from each other.
Indeed, many years have passed.
Maybe he felt a little bored, so Chen Changsheng stopped thinking about it, closed his eyes and fell asleep on the bench.
The light shone into the courtyard at noon, but fortunately there was a small tree that blocked Chen Changsheng's light.
At some point a woman walked into the courtyard.
The woman looked at the person sitting on the bench and said nothing for a long time.
She sat down on the stool next to her, placed the bag of candied fruits in her hand on the table, and then quietly waited for Chen Changsheng to wake up.
But after sitting for a while, I heard Mr. Qingshan, who was taking a nap on the bench, speak.
"When did you come?"
Yunxiang said: "I just came."
Chen Changsheng paused for a moment and then asked: "Shopkeeper Liu gave Chen some good tea as a gift earlier. Do you want to drink it?"
Yunxiang thought for a while and said, "Drink."
She turned away her face intentionally or unintentionally, as if she was nervous about something.
Chen Changsheng got up to boil water and make tea. When the tea was brought to the table, he added a cup and handed it over.
She asked, "You are back, why don't you come to me?"
There was complaint and a bit of sadness in her words.
Chen Changsheng replied: "Sometimes I don't know whether I should or not."
How could Yunxiang not understand what Chen Changsheng was thinking.
She said: "Sir, can you please stop hesitating next time you come back? Yunxiang has never forgotten you, sir, from the beginning to the end. It was the same in the past and it will be the same in the future."
Chen Changsheng paused after hearing this.
He asked: "Is there anything about people like Chen that Miss Yun should be concerned about?"
Yunxiang said: "Yunxiang explained it to my husband very early on."
Chen Changsheng sighed slightly in his heart and couldn't say anything else.
"Why does Miss Yun keep turning her face sideways? It seems like she is avoiding Chen." Chen Changsheng asked.
Yunxiang pursed her lips and said, "I'm getting older and I don't look good."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said: "Chen is not a pedantic person. Please ask Miss Yun to stop avoiding Chen."
The hands under Yun Xiang's sleeves grasped the corners of her clothes. After much hesitation, she turned her head.
She is indeed much older.
The wrinkles at the corners of the eyes are clearly visible, white hair is mixed in between the blue hairs, and the complexion is not as fair as before.
Yunxiang hurriedly turned her head away, as if she regretted it a little.
But suddenly I heard Chen Changsheng say.
"nice."
Yunxiang was stunned for a moment and turned her head.
When the four eyes met, tears filled Yunxiang's eyes.
She breathed a sigh of relief, wiped away her tears, and said, "Mr. Chen, there is no need to make me happy."
Chen Changsheng said: "Chen's impression of Miss Yun is always that little maid who doesn't understand anything."
After hearing this, Yunxiang lowered her head, and for some reason she started laughing again. In the blink of an eye, the smile faded and turned into sadness.
She has always been complicated, but it was never shown on her face before, but now it is different.
People often say that the older you get, the more calm you become, but Yunxiang feels that the older you get, the more sentimental you become, unlike before.
Yunxiang came back to her senses, handed the candied fruits on the table to Chen Changsheng, and said, "The candied fruits I brought for sir."
Chen Changsheng reached out and took it.
Then he saw Yunxiang getting up and said: "Yunxiang feels a little uncomfortable, so she will go back first."
After saying that, she walked outside without looking back.
When he was reaching the door, he was stopped by Chen Changsheng.
"I haven't even drank the tea yet."
Yunxiang paused, and for some reason tears flowed out unconsciously.
She turned around and ran towards Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng saw tears in her eyes.
Yunxiang lay on her shoulder, hugging Chen Changsheng tightly, her clothes soaked with tears in her eyes.
Sobbing sounded beside Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng was stunned for a moment, regained consciousness for a long time, and slowly stretched out his hand to pat her back.
He asked: "Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
Yunxiang sobbed, and her words were a little unclear, "Before, when I wanted to leave, you never stayed with me..."
Chen Changsheng was stunned for a moment. He had never thought that it would be such a simple and ordinary thing.
After Miss Yun's words, Chen Changsheng became calmer.
He did do something wrong.
Listening to the sobbing in his ears, Chen Changsheng also sighed and said, "It was Chen who made a mistake."
Yunxiang shook her head but said nothing.
She hugged Chen Changsheng and cried for a long time, never wanting to let go.
"When you came back the day before, I knew you were back. I really wanted to come to you, but Hongjin wouldn't let me come and stopped me. I just waited. I thought you might be tired. Maybe come early tomorrow morning.
I'll just sit in the yard and wait, waiting for you to knock on the door."
"But you never came. I've been waiting today and tomorrow. You promised to make it up to me before. How could you go back on your word? It's only been ten years or so. Have you forgotten?"
"Chen has not forgotten, but the matter is not over yet."
Chen Changsheng patted her back and comforted her.
"fraud!"
Yunxiang clenched her fists and hammered Chen Changsheng's chest. The expectations of the past ten years and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time made it difficult for her to reason rationally.
Chen Changsheng did not hide, but looked down, only to see the woman in his arms bursting into tears, losing his sense of proportion.
After a while, Yunxiang lay on Chen Changsheng's shoulder and cried loudly.
This was the hardest time she had cried so far.
It seemed like I wanted to vent all the grievances I had suffered for decades.
Yunxiang's sobs subsided.
She called out: "Chen Changsheng."
"Chen is listening."
"There is no more hateful person in the world than you."
