Rebirth's Charm

Chapter 134

"Master Hou!" At this moment, Mrs. Xu did not get angry and flustered, but instead changed her expression, and said, "I have good intentions, and Lord Hou knows it all too well. Master Hou is acting like this just because he doesn't agree with me giving you away. Come here, or do you not agree with the Prime Minister's interference in your heir's affairs at all?"

There is no deep meaning in asking this question.

Ye Xizhao took the words, and warned politely: "You must speak with discretion, are you asking this for the entire Xiangfu?"

Xu Shi didn't intend to appreciate it, and asked instead: "What's the difference?"

Yu Shaoheng asked indifferently at this time: "How is your words different from mine?"

Xu turned her head to look at Yu Shaoheng.

Yu Shaoheng's mood has relaxed a lot, and he even looks a little lazy, but his eyes are sharper, "No one wants to intervene in my affairs; if I want to intervene in other people's affairs, no one can stop me." As he spoke, he Standing up, he said to Ye Xizhao, "I'm going to change clothes."

"I'll serve Master Hou." When Ye Xizhao followed him to the dormitory, he ordered Zhilan to see off the guests.

The third lady arranged a few maidservants to serve Jing Zhiran to change the soaked clothes, and ordered someone to cook a large bowl of ginger soup for Jing Zhiran to drink.

When Jing Zhiran was shivering in the brocade quilt, Yu Shaohuan had already returned to the study and changed out of his wet clothes.

The third lady stepped into the door, sent her servants, sat on the grand teacher's chair, pointed to the seat beside her, "Third Master, I have something to say to you."

When Yu Shaohuan was seated, he looked at her twice more, and found that her expression was peaceful, but her eyes were firm, as if she had made up her mind, so she couldn't help explaining first: "The Yu family and the Jing family are family friends, so how old are you?" At that time, my eldest brother and my second brother both hugged her. Si Niang, if there is an accident in the Hou's residence, no matter how generous the Jing family is, no matter how innocent the Yu family is, they will inevitably become strangers."

The third lady couldn't help laughing, "Of course I know these things, and I also know that the first thing you think of is the gains and losses of the entire Yu family when you are in front of something. would be so worried about her life."

Yu Shaohuan didn't want to admit this, because he didn't want the third wife to become more convinced that the only thing he valued most was family, but the facts couldn't be refuted.Especially for this matter, if he refused to admit it, the third lady would inevitably think of going elsewhere, so she just smiled and refused to comment.

The third wife looked at Yu Shaohuan thoughtfully, "Actually, I saw a good marriage."

"What did you say?" Yu Shaohuan couldn't hide his shock.

The third lady's smile was quiet, which made the atmosphere impossible to stagnate. She also intentionally created such an atmosphere suitable for heart-to-heart talks, and her voice became more and more gentle: "Master, you are kind by nature, and this is something that everyone in the family knows. It's just that After marrying a wife twice, you have no patience and no warmth towards women. Of course, this is also what Song Xinyao and I used to do. We married you for the glory of the Hou Mansion, not for you. I even forgot that a husband is a wife. I understand that there is nothing more humiliating to a man than this kind of thing-you try your best to make your future better, but the women around you never take it seriously. If you leave me, you will be like you, just trying to live in a daze."

Following her words, Yu Shaohuan's mood fluctuated involuntarily, and he forgot to pursue her previous words.

The third lady studied his gaze and knew that her guess about his mood was correct, so she felt relieved and continued: "It's been a long time, I've tried my best to correct my mistakes, and you've also tried my best to forgive, but the current situation still doesn't make sense. As you wish. In the final analysis, it is your knot, which cannot be opened yet. After thinking about it, I don’t think I have the ability to make you feel comfortable, and I have never even made you a pair of shoes and socks. In the future, it will be nothing more than Maintain the status quo—you and I have become acquainted day by day, but we still can’t look like a husband and wife. Rather than you suffering and me suffering, it’s better to part ways.”

Yu Shaohuan's eyes became deep, and he asked slowly: "You mean - reconciliation?"

The third lady nodded slowly, "After reconciling, you can also have a good marriage..."

"Shut up." Yu Shaohuan interrupted her, but his voice was not impatient, and even very gentle, "I thought that the situation between you and me has improved a little bit now. It's just the hurtful things I said and the hurts I did in the past. It takes time to truly let go of people's affairs—you and I are the same. I have never thought about reconciling, so don't be stupid. Men and women marry each other. In this world, it is women who suffer the most. "

"I understand." The third lady smiled approvingly, "But I'm not the type to be bullied, you should understand."

"When you were Guan Siniang, you naturally couldn't be bullied. How can you go smoothly after you walk out of the back door?" Yu Shaohuan shook his head helplessly, out of helplessness at her ridiculous idea, "Why are you Don't think about it, after you leave the Yu family, apart from condescending, how can someone from a good family marry you? If you stay in your mother's house, how can a woman after reconciliation have a good life? Who would laugh and let you cling to your mother's family for life? Safe and secure?"

The third lady smiled and said, "I'm going to accompany the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha."

Yu Shaohuan's eyes darkened, and he said sadly: "Do you want me to delay you for the rest of your life, and make me feel guilty for the rest of my life?"

"It's all on my own, why do you need to think so much about me." The corners of the third lady's lips were raised higher, looking more cheerful, but tears were clearly shining in her eyes.She had questioned and despaired too much about this marriage before, and thought that she could be calm and rational, but when she heard that he was thinking about the rest of her life, she still couldn't help but feel sad.

After all, for people who have lived together for so long, no matter how shallow the relationship is, it is still heavier than imagined.

She felt that it was better to bring the topic back to her original intention, and let him see the benefits he would get after breaking up with her, and maybe he would accept it calmly.From this, she took a deep breath and said softly: "Today you saved Miss Jing, as long as you are willing, I will facilitate this marriage for you, and you also know that this is an easy matter. With me and Not long after leaving, she will be able to marry into the Hou's Mansion. Her background is very good, and she will not marry because of the power of the Hou's Mansion, and she is only grateful to you. In this way, you will not be able to repeat the same mistakes and finally get a share Good marriage."

The more she spoke, the more sad her voice became.

The more Yu Shaohuan listened, the colder his eyes became.

The room fell into silence, and a needle could be heard.

Yu Shaohuan breathed out patiently, and finally broke the silence: "Is it finished?"

The third lady nodded.

Yu Shaohuan smiled sarcastically, "Look at how powerful you are. You have to wait for this opportunity to talk about things like Heli. Give me a temptation, and want me to agree with the trend? How disappointed you must be with me, You can do this kind of thing. How much do you despise me, thinking that you can decide the final result of you and me on your own."

Hearing the last sentence, the third lady's expression froze.After all the calculations, how could she forget this?This invisibly made him feel again that he was just an insignificant person in her eyes.

"Si Niang, come here." Yu Shaohuan called her.

The third lady walked up to him, studying his complicated expression.Because it was too complicated, his face seemed to be covered with emotions and desires, but there seemed to be nothing.

Yu Shaohuan held her hand, and his voice seemed very tired: "No matter how you look at me or how I look at you, this marriage has its own right and wrong, and you and I have never put each other in our hearts to take care of and support each other. I am confused , you are not. But, you don't want to move and leave. "

At this time, it was the third lady's turn to be puzzled.She couldn't believe how a man wouldn't look forward to a beautiful marriage.

After Yu Shaohuan finished talking about his attitude, he talked about other things: "My knot is indeed that you make up your own mind and regard me as a tool for you to get glory. It's not that I don't want to get close to you now, but I dare not. I can’t trust you completely. I want to take it slowly, or completely avoid you from repeating the same mistakes, or wait until one day to trust you completely. It’s my fault for making you feel tired, but this must not be a reason for reconciliation, about it You should cancel your plan as soon as possible. I will be like this if I fall into the water. If any servant or woman in the Hou's mansion falls into the water, I will save him regardless of the suspicion of men and women. After all, it is a human life. If you think about it because of this, I will not looking at you, but I won’t let you make a fuss about it.”

"..." The third lady couldn't digest all these for a while, and was speechless.

"Let's continue to make do with it. No matter how wronged I am, I can't just give up." Yu Shaohuan slowly let go of her hand, and smiled helplessly, "In the future, when I have nothing to do, I will not stay in the mansion anymore. , and save you from seeing other good marriages."

Thinking of the origin of today's events, he was really dumbfounded——

Nothing to do today, he returned home early.Hearing that the third wife was talking to the maid about making a fish in the small kitchen, but the fish was not very fresh, the maid talked about Yu Shaoheng once fishing personally and asked Ye Xizhao to cook fresh fish for Mrs. Tai to taste. All these big and small things about the couple have been passed down in the mansion as one small story after another.

The third lady smiled when she heard this, and said: "The third master is not the marquis, and I am not the sister-in-law."

Seeing his gentle expression, the servant girl bravely suggested: "Third Master is fine, why don't you help Third Madam to catch a fresh fish? Although the weather is cold now, the fish will taste even better."

He glanced at the third lady, who was also looking at him over there, and nodded in response, and ordered the servant girl to go and put the fishing gear in the fish pond.

The third lady smiled at first, but then became skeptical, "How can you catch fish with this kind of solar term?"

"Why not? Just can't, I can't order someone to buy a fresh one?" He joked, "If you don't want me to lie, you can go with me to have a cool breeze."

The third lady was a little surprised at the time, but then she nodded with a smile, "Then I really have to follow along to make fun of it."

After that, the husband and wife walked slowly to the fish pond.As he was walking, he saw a lot of maids looking around, and only after asking about it did he find out why, all of them laughed.Unexpectedly, when he got close to the fish pond, he saw the scene of Jing Zhiran falling into the water and calling for help.

At that time, both of them were in a hurry - the third lady knew that the servants in the back garden were all women, how could anyone know how to swim?Now I can't find anything to rescue him, but if Jing Zhiran sacrificed his life for a cat, then the Hou Mansion will experience some troubles.Of course Yu Shaohuan also understood this point, the only thing hesitating was whether the man and the woman would accept or not, but he couldn't delay, so he jumped into the water to save Jing Zhiran.

When Jing Zhiran woke up, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart, and he was overjoyed.The same is true for the third lady.

Originally, the husband and wife avoided a catastrophe together, and it was a small turning point for the husband and wife to get closer together, but she didn't think that she would raise the idea of ​​reconciling and separating at this time...

Nothing more...

Yu Shaohuan collected his thoughts, called someone to pass on the meal, and coldly ordered his servants who knew about it not to spread the news about him being rescued from the well.
