Light Keeper

Chapter 114
Zheng Yunniang was so angry at her words, she stopped talking and locked Zhou Jiao at home, not allowing her to go anywhere!
Zhou Jiao thought that Zheng Yuniang had made an engagement for her, but she didn't know that Zheng Yuniang had already compromised!
Everyone hesitates at a fork in the road.

But often because of stubbornness, I always choose another path that I regret.

It was the same that night. Zhou Jiao, who ran out, chose the latter between pleading with Zheng Yunniang and elopement.

So she didn't know that as long as she gave in, Zheng Yunniang would do what she wanted.

She eloped with Feng Yao!
She left the woman who had shielded her from the wind and rain with excitement in her heart.

So this is the freedom Zheng Yunniang talked about?

She got into the carriage that Feng Yao had prepared long ago, and the two left Yuling soon.

Zheng Yunniang wanted to cry but had no tears. She was very anxious, but she still pretended to be nothing.

While quietly sending someone to look for it, hating Feng Yao in his heart and wanting to kill him, at the same time carefully hiding the matter.

Zhou Jiao and Feng Yao went to the capital, and she accompanied him to study, accompany him to take the scientific examination, and accompany him to explore high school.

After high school, Feng Yao found a sixth-rank junior official, and Zhou Jiao accompanied him to the post.

Because there were too many things to do and time was too tight, he let Zhou Jiao go first, and went to Yuling by himself.

Zhou Jiao waited for him for half a month in office, and waited for the news that he had brought their marriage certificate!
When seeing the marriage letter, Zhou Jiao was both happy and disappointed.

Glad that he did not disappoint her and chose to marry her as his wife.

Disappointed that Zheng Yunniang didn't say a word in the end.

Zhou Jiao suppressed the sadness in her heart and prepared to prepare for the wedding.

But Feng Yao told her that because an uncle in the family died of illness, the two had to observe filial piety for a year before they could get married.

Zhou Jiao didn't want it in her heart, but she couldn't, she kept complaining about her illness to the outside world, and she was suffering with injustice.

A year later, she finally married him.

The wedding was not perfect, because it was held in office, and there were only the two elders of the Feng family in the high hall.

No one from her natal family has arrived...

No matter how unhappy she is, life will go on. She put away the worries and sorrows in her heart, took care of the housework carefully for him, united with the boss for him, and expanded his contacts...

After three years, Feng Yao was promoted.

The two returned to Beijing, he became a fifth-rank official, and she became the fifth-rank official's wife and his eldest son's mother.

For another three years, Feng Yao didn't want to stay in the capital to be that petty official who would never be optimistic for a lifetime, so he chose to go outside again.

The imperial examination is held every three years, and his brilliance has long been replaced by another group of people. If he wants to climb up, he will always have to suffer.

Sending it to a less affluent place and making some achievements seems to be a shortcut for him.

But this time, it was no longer Zhou Jiao who followed!
Their second child had just been born, and her body couldn't bear it, and neither could her child's.

The two can only be separated, one stays in Kyoto, and the other rushes to take office.

I don't even know what year and month it will be before we can get together again after this parting!
When he excitedly told Zhou Jiao the news, she couldn't feel Feng Yao's hard work in seeking a vacancy.

At that moment, she just suddenly understood what Zheng Yunniang said, you are not from the same way, what does it mean!
She leaned against the bed, and the two children were lying in it. She just watched quietly, watching the two ignorant and young sons, sleeping so soundly.

She finally compromised, compromise and unknown, she knows Feng Yao too well.

Without her, there would be someone else!
Early the next morning, she gritted her teeth and opened the face of the maid next to her.

She sent the two of them to work with a calm expression, and stayed in Beijing with the children.

That night when she and Feng Yao were separated for the first time, she stood alone in the small courtyard, recalling every detail of Zheng Yunniang.

Suddenly I remembered the Ghost Festival when she scolded Zheng Yunniang, Zheng Yunniang's frail figure, and the poem she recited.

The remnant lamp will extinguish Su Chahan,
The moon shadows in the courtyard are completely speechless.

For a moment when the winter snow is full,
The Xinghe marsh has been in existence for thousands of years.

If a moment of winter snow is beautiful, then how sad it must be to be in the galaxy for ten thousand years!

Zhou Jiao suddenly understood Zheng Yunniang's gaffe that night.

It's a kind of loneliness that can't see the future!
She cried and wrote to her, apologizing to her, and squeezed out a decent gift from the already tight budget to send to Yu Ling.

But Zheng Yunniang never replied to her and only said a few words!
She was heartbroken and regretful, but the matter had come to this, and she had no way out!
He could only grit his teeth, angry at Zheng Yunniang's unfeeling.

But life is still going on, isn't it?
She couldn't get away from the complicated housework and think about it, and Feng Yao's life was not easy, she always had to do something to support her family...

Five years later, Feng Yao returned to Beijing to report on his work, and was promoted to fourth rank.

He is only over 30 years old and has already reached the fourth rank, which is indeed a bit eye-catching.

But Zhou Jiao's management these years is not for nothing!
The two teamed up again, and Feng Yao quickly gained a firm foothold in Beijing.

Zhou Jiao has already learned to wear the same makeup as other wives, and exchange witty words with them.

I also understand how to observe words and demeanor, and never miss a trace of flattery.

I also know the popularity of jewelry and clothes, and how to give decent and economical gifts.

But her meticulous painting and calligraphy still fell behind after all.

Zheng Yunniang's most proud embroidery was also left behind by her.

In the end, she was smoothed out by life, lost her sex, and became the official wife of a fourth-rank official in Beijing, who was neither too old nor too young.

Feng Yao finally greeted and sent off like other officials, and the number of aunts in the yard gradually increased.

Sometimes Zhou Jiao couldn't remember what Feng Yao, who made her want to elope with her, looked like.

I also forgot what that Zhou Jiao, who grows melons to make wine, paints and embroiders, and smiles wantonly and unrestrainedly, looks like!
The two are not so much a husband and wife, but a community of interests in which one prospers and the other suffers.

He gave her respect and decency, and she gave him a worry-free back.

A few years later, the eldest son is already a well-known young talent in Kyoto.

The relationship between the two of them has almost dropped to freezing point.

No matter how beautiful the face is, it can't compare with the Yingying Yanyan in the yard.

Sometimes Zhou Jiao didn't understand how she had endured all these years.

Probably because Zheng Yunniang didn't say a word, let her grit her teeth and want to prove that she is right!
She didn't know what the stalemate between her and Zheng Yunniang was, but she just didn't want to admit defeat.

Maybe she doesn't need Zheng Yunniang's affirmation, what she needs is just like the past ten years, when she did something wrong, Zheng Yunniang's warm embrace, give her a step to retreat!
Feng Yao has started to prosper, he has a wide range of connections, and he is promoted step by step.

Gradually, he got a little tired of Zhou Jiao, tired of Zhou Jiao's perfunctory treatment of him and the lack of warmth in her eyes when she looked at him.

He can already get rid of Zhou Jiao.

But the excellence of his legitimate son gave him a lot of worries.

In the past ten years, the two of them have changed so much that they cannot blame each other.

No one can tell why all this is happening!
Feng Yao didn't want to go to Zhou Jiao's place anymore, and Zhou Jiao seemed to be wearing the unicorn gold armor that Zheng Yunniang once wore.

She didn't care, just doing her own thing quietly.

The two sons are already grown up, and they have to find a suitable woman.

There are several children who were born in a concubine at home, and they have been very noisy recently...

Zhou Jiao resolved these one by one, not looking at Feng Yao's ugliness at all.

Unfortunately, he often walked along the river without getting his shoes wet. Feng Yao collapsed before his swelling reached its peak.

He was involved in the incident of seizing the heirloom.

This kind of thing can be big or small, after all, he is still too much in the limelight, Feng Yao also figured it out when he was imprisoned.

But he only had time for the servant to pass a word.

Go back to Madam and let her come forward!
