Chapter 19 I Love You

A Western oil painting full of classical romanticism, rendered in cold colors such as purple and green. Fu Jincheng was stared at by the characters in the painting. Somehow, he felt a bit cold and suffocating in such a gorgeously decorated living room. .

He attributed the feeling of suffocation to not getting a good rest last night, got up and left.

As he was going downstairs, he heard someone talking at the corner.

Xiaocui stamped her feet and cried: "Mom, didn't you agree to leave me the half of the cake that my wife and the others didn't finish?! Why did someone cut off a piece of it?! What kind of thing has no eyes? Stealing food!"

Wang Ma lowered her voice to coax her: "I asked, only the third young lady came into the kitchen last night, she must have eaten secretly! The girl from the country has never eaten good food, and she is afraid that others will look down on her, so she is very embarrassed during the day. Eat, they are eating secretly behind my wife's back at night!"

"Why is it her!" Xiaocui was unhappy, "She is really short-sighted. The rewards she usually gives are not as big as those of the eldest mistress and the second mistress. But she secretly eats my cake, which is really annoying! Third Master, hurry up Just divorce her and kick her out!"

Fu Jincheng walked downstairs.

The sound of leather shoes alerted Wang Ma and Xiao Cui. When Wang Ma saw it was him, she quickly came over to say hello with a smile on her face: "Third Master, you got up so early! Breakfast has been prepared in the kitchen, both Chinese and Western food. You are here today." What to eat?"

Fu Jincheng: "I rang the bell upstairs, didn't you hear me?"

Wang Ma and Xiao Cui felt guilty.

Of course they heard it, but they thought it was the third young lady who rang the bell, so they didn't take it to heart.

Anyway, the third young lady has a soft face and a kind heart. Even if the maids come to serve her later, they won't say anything. What's more, a daughter-in-law like her who is not taken seriously will not have anything important to do.

Fu Jincheng glanced at them, buttoned his cufflinks, and walked towards the dining room.

I also understood the reason why Xiaocui suddenly ran into the room yesterday morning and told Shen Xiuwan to wear the jade necklace.

……

Shen Xiuwan's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she was embarrassed to go downstairs to eat with the Fu family.

She said she was ill and had had food delivered to her for the past two days.

The girl who brought her food was named Mei Xiang, who had just come to work at Fu's house. She was sixteen or seventeen years old, with two low ponytails and a celluloid hairpin. She was lively and active, and she couldn't stop talking when she opened her mouth. Come down.

She said: "Third Young Mistress, you don't know, right? Wang Ma and Xiao Cui were fired by the manager. I heard that they packed up their clothes and took the train back to their hometown overnight!"

Shen Xiuwan was eating egg custard when she heard this and said, "What mistake did they make?"

"I don't know about that. It seems to be because I made Third Master angry."

Shen Xiuwan pinched the spoon and secretly thought that the man in Jincheng was cold and cold-faced, and even wanted to take his wife if he wanted to. Naturally, maids like Wang Ma and Xiao Cui would quit as soon as they said they wanted.

Mei Xiang leaned over the desk and read a book spread out on it.

She smiled and said: "Second Young Madam and the others said that Third Young Madam is different from them, she is a scholar. I thought that Third Young Madam's handwriting must be very beautiful, and I want to ask Third Young Madam to help me write a letter."

Shen Xiuwan had already finished eating.

She washed her face and washed her hands, and said gently: "This is not a difficult task, I can help you now."

She spread out pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk.

Mei Xiang paced in the room: "I am writing this letter to Brother Chang."

"Who is Brother Chang?"

"My mother told me about the marriage partner. She used to live next door to my house. My mother told me to work here for two years, save a lot of money, then go home and marry him, and then come over to take care of him after I have a child."

It turned out to be my fiancé...

Shen Xiuwan thought about it and asked: "What should I write specifically?" Mei Xiang grabbed her braids in distress, meditated for a moment, and replied: "Tell him that everything is fine for me in Yanjing. My wife and several young ladies treat me well." Very good, I eat well and live well, so I told him not to worry about me."

After Shen Xiuwan finished writing, she saw that she was silent for a long time, so she couldn't help but ask: "Is that all? It's not easy to send a letter all the way back. It also costs money for postage. Please write more."

Mei Xiang blushed on her cheeks, grabbed her pigtails and turned around: "Tell him, I miss him."

Shen Xiuwan said hello.

After she finished writing, she thought about it and added a line of English at the end of the letter.

Mei Xiang came over to look at it, pointed at the line in English and asked, "Is this a foreign language? I've seen it in Miss Yunzhu's book."

Shen Xiuwan explained: "'I love you' means I love you."

"No, no, no!" Mei Xiang suddenly blushed, "This is not good!"

"If you don't like it, then I'll erase it."

"Hey!" Mei Xiang stopped her shyly, "How about... or just put it in the letter like this. I also want to be romantic."

Shen Xiuwan responded with a smile and carefully helped her fold the letter into the envelope.

Mei Xiang put the letter into her pocket: "Everyone said that the third young lady does not understand foreign languages, but I look at it and you clearly understand it."

Shen Xiuwan put away her pen, ink, paper and inkstone and explained: "I have taught myself a few simple words."

"Then..." Mei Xiang was curious, "Then did you tell the third young master that sentence in foreign language? When you spoke in foreign language, it sounded very good to me."

Shen Xiuwan hesitated.

She learned this sentence in foreign language just so that one day she could tell it to Jincheng.

but……

She lowered her head sadly.

Jincheng is going to divorce her, and maybe she will never have the chance to say this to him again.

The flowers in Yanjing are blooming to the depths, and the cicadas are noisy day by day. The hot summer is coming quietly. The vendors pass through the crisscross alleys all year round, and the sounds of "sharpening knives" and "bean juice" are heard. , "Wan Cake" shouting and selling, the west wind is getting stronger and stronger, and it is also urging the fallen leaves all over the city to turn yellow.

Autumn is here.

Shen Xiuwan thought that her marriage to Jincheng might have come to an end, but the other party did not mention the divorce again, but rarely returned to Fu's mansion.

The three nights she spent with him were like a beautiful dream she had had.

They were never that close again.

Jincheng would occasionally come back to visit his wife, but before she had even sat there for a moment, the second sister-in-law would eagerly call Xue Qishu and call her over under the pretext of playing mahjong to create a chance for her and Jincheng to get along.

Shen Xiuwan looked at it and saw that Jincheng was polite to Xue Qishu and had no intention of that.

He is like this to all the women who fall in love with him, both affectionate and callous.

As for Liu Manling, she had not heard from her for a long time. She only knew that she offended Jincheng, her brother's film company collapsed, she never released a record again, and the brother and sister had a hard time in Yanjing.

Shen Xiuwan was not idle.

She likes Jincheng, and she still wants to save this marriage. She knows that Jincheng dislikes her for being conservative and shallow, so she is determined to change herself and learn something new from the West.
