Awakened Xiangfu Qianjin
Chapter 110
Shi Wanwan looked at Chu Yutang with a sneer, until she felt confused, and asked tremblingly, "Wan Wan, did I say something wrong?"
"No, you're right, I'll take it as your compliment." Shi Wanwan walked towards her, and gradually approached her.
Chu Yutang was full of anticipation, thinking that he would at least get a light kiss as a reward.Unexpectedly, Shi Wanwan walked straight in front of her, turned sideways, and walked away lightly.
"However, you also reminded me that I shouldn't let you listen too much, lest you can't even speak. From tonight, you can sleep in the study."
Chu Yutang's small face drooped weakly, it seemed that his fingertips were indeed a little too active last night, otherwise Wanwan's walking posture just now would not be a little abnormal.But this can't be said, Chu Yutang can't do things that make Wanwan lose face.Anyway, we are about to go out, so it's okay to sleep in the study for a few days, don't we have to share a room together on the way?hey-hey.
The Xu family reluctantly took Chu Yutang and Shi Wanwan out, and Chu Yutang was quite at ease with Uncle Ji taking care of the house and business.In addition, now that her father-in-law, the prime minister, is in the limelight, who would dare to play tricks behind her back and provoke Chu Yutang?
"Yu'er, Wanwan, this time you enter Beijing, be careful all the way, you two have to take good care of each other. Don't make me worry at home, you know?" Xu's eyes are full of reluctance, but she also knows that returning to Beijing is a The imperative cannot be hindered.
"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely protect Wan Wan. But this time we have to go outside the Great Wall with Boss Ju, and we may not be able to come back to celebrate the New Year with you." Chu Yutang felt a little guilty, thinking of the end of the year, My mother was going to be alone in the south of the Yangtze River, and I felt very uncomfortable.
But Mrs. Xu laughed, comforted the two, and said, "It's okay, business is important. When you come back from outside the Great Wall, our family will be reunited, and every day will be like New Year's Eve."
Shi Wanwan was also at the side comforting Chu Yutang, saying: "Mother is right, there will be a long time to come. As long as our family is together, we will be reunited."
Hearing both Xu Shi and Shi Wanwan say this, the sorrow of parting in Chu Yutang's heart immediately dissipated a lot.Presumably this was the happiest trip away from home in her memory.Although his fate has been changed, since Liu Yu'an died, it seems that the situation of changing his fate has been broken.Shi Wanwan asked the person imprisoned in the mansion to confirm again and again, and then everyone suddenly realized that to break this law, they had to pay with the life of the guarantor.What's more, Chu Yutang's life-protecting jade has been intact, and Liu Yu'an's game is not completely successful.
This is what the so-called "changing fate with life" means.However, Liu Yu'an's death has not yet been determined. Suicide and homicide are both possible. After all, Liu Yu'an used all means to achieve his goals and offended many people, especially those few partners who were miserably cheated by her. Lost a lot of money.And her own sins are also very serious, and it is not impossible to suddenly wake up.Chu Yutang would think of this matter occasionally, but felt that he shouldn't delve into it. After all, Liu Yu'an, the last trace of ties with him had been eliminated.In the future life, you should not be occupied by this person, and even a little space should not be wasted.
"Ah Chu, what are you thinking about? You haven't said a word for so long." On the way to Beijing, Chu Yutang was extremely quiet, and Shi Wanwan could tell that she had something on her mind.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just feel a little sad when I think of Liu Yu'an's death." Shi Wanwan's face changed slightly when she heard Chu Yutang mention this name.But Chu Yutang paid attention to what he said, and didn't turn his face to look at Shi Wanwan.
"This is what she deserves, isn't it?" Shi Wanwan said calmly.
Chu Yutang thought for a while, then nodded.
"Yes, she has done so many bad things, and there is nothing wrong with such an ending. However, I always feel that she is not someone who would admit defeat so easily. How could she commit suicide overnight. "
"A Chu, when you look at people, you often only see the surface. Even if you have known her for ten years, the other side of her is very strange to you. So you use the her in your memory to try to figure it out. It is difficult to draw accurate conclusions. Besides, when a person is at the bottom, his heart is full of expectations and motivation to climb to the peak, and his endurance is naturally sufficient. But when a person is already at the peak, it is not always necessary to let her go down. Everyone has this tenacity.”
"Well, it's better for Wanwan to see the problem thoroughly. If it were me, I wouldn't have thought of this. After all, Liu Yu'an was already extremely inflated at that time. Besides, when the prefect of Jiangzhou fell, she used fake goods to make up for the amount. There is no way to hide the good inside story. It is indeed difficult to end, so thinking about it, it is understandable for her to make such a choice."
Seeing Chu Yutang's words were plausible, Shi Wanwan didn't continue to say anything, her eyes seemed to be relieved.After all, there are some things that Chu Yutang is unwilling to bear with herself, and that pure and innocent state of mind is something that Shi Wanwan insists on protecting.It's just that in this world, many good things need more cruel means to maintain. Shi Wanwan remembered that when Shi Langyun came to Jiangnan this time, the way he looked at himself was obviously different from the past.
Shi Wanwan was able to guess her father's intentions from the change in her eldest brother's eyes. It seems that Chu Yutang's firm support for the prince played a big role during her coma.In the precarious days, nothing is more real than real gold and silver. The prince can succeed to the throne smoothly in the end, and the prime minister's mansion escaped from prison and regained the honor because of the million taels of silver.
"When you arrive in the capital, you have to think about how to face everything?" Shi Wanwan knew that the former prince and the current emperor would not turn a deaf ear to Chu Yutang's entry into the capital.
"Think it over, and face it calmly. Anyway, they have seen my family clearly. No matter how much they want, there is really nothing left." Chu Yutang smiled easily. The difficult years of raising money everywhere made her serious again. The thoughtful father once firmly kept the firm away from the rules of the government.
"That can't be done, you still owe me a lot of money, you can't let others take it all away." Shi Wanwan kept the paper slip that Chu Yutang made for her and the bed sheet together, maybe it was a secret that belonged to her heart .She wants to keep these as a testimony of their feelings and keep them forever.
"Wanwan, I've performed so well, can't I use my hard work to deduct the deduction?"
Shi Wanwan shook her head as expected, and said: "Isn't it an advantage for you to be diligent? There is no harm in persevering. As for the money owed, you are also a businessman, and you should know best. Brothers have to settle accounts clearly, let alone ..."
"But we are closer than brothers! Brothers don't have to kiss and hug each other every day when they go to sleep. Are we still farther than brothers?" Chu Yutang was anxious to defend himself, but Shi Wanwan gave him a sharp slap His eyes were closed, and he stopped talking.
"You can rest assured when you go back to the prime minister's mansion, but if you are announced into the palace, you can't talk as you please." Shi Wanwan's eyes were a little worried.
This time, Shi Langyun, as an imperial envoy, went to the south of the Yangtze River to rectify and deal with the remnants of King Qi. He was busy with official duties, and there was little time for the dialogue between the siblings to explain in detail.During the few short conversations, Shi Wanwan vaguely felt that there was a problem that needed to be faced and resolved when she entered Beijing.But this time, having Chu Yutang by his side was both encouragement and weakness.
Traveling thousands of miles, walking with a loving person will not feel the journey is boring.Chu Yutang actually felt that taking a carriage to Beijing seemed a better choice than taking a boat, because not only would she not get seasick, but she could also get closer to Shi Wanwan.
Reunited after a long absence, Shi Qiran saw his daughter and son-in-law, as if they were separated from each other, wanting to cry without tears.Shi Wanwan could understand the pressure and torture her father suffered when the prime minister's mansion was in crisis, her eyes were sore, she no longer restrained her feelings, threw herself into her father's arms, and twitched in a muffled voice.
Chu Yutang was not surprised by this move, and his eyes turned red as he watched from the side.Shi Qiran and Shi Langting who had been staying in the Prime Minister's Mansion stared wide-eyed, as if they couldn't believe that this woman crying in her father's arms turned out to be Shi Wanwan, who was known for being deserted in the past.
Shi Langyun was calmer than them, and he could more or less sense that the changes in his sister in Jiangnan were due to Chu Yutang.Just like this time he took the initiative to persuade his father that he should change his view of Chu Yutang, whether it was donating silver or taking care of Shi Wanwan without changing his original intention, it was enough to prove that Chu Yutang was someone Shi Wanwan could entrust to him for life.Even if something happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Yutang still has the ability to keep Shi Wanwan.
Shi Qiran raised his hand stiffly, and lightly landed on his daughter's shoulder, patted it half-empty and half-solid, and said, "Wan Wan, don't cry, don't cry, your crying will break Dad's heart." gone."
Chu Yutang couldn't help laughing inwardly when he saw the always majestic father-in-law look at a loss.However, Shi Wanwan's emotions were only revealed for a moment, and after the feeling of longing was released, she quickly adjusted.I also know that it is inappropriate for the public to do so now.He quickly stood up from his father's arms, and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face.
"Enter the room, let's talk slowly after we enter the room." Shi Qiran looked at his daughter's complexion, he had received a letter from Cui Yun and Fei Xia before, saying that Wan Wan suddenly fell into a coma for no reason in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was afraid that her daughter's old illness would relapse.But at that time, he and Shi Langyun were assisting the crown prince and the king of Qi in a life-and-death battle, and the situation was very unfavorable to them.Under such circumstances, he really couldn't get away to bring Shi Wanwan back, and he really didn't dare to bring his daughter back in such a situation.
After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Yutang's greatest feeling was that the whole house had obviously been refurbished, the area seemed to be more spacious than before, and many places had been completely renewed and more magnificent.The current prime minister's mansion is more like a prime minister's mansion than in the past.
Chu Yutang is now in charge of the firm by herself, although she has a lot of money in and out, she is much better than when she only knew how to spend money and didn't ask the price.She had a rough idea of the prices of many materials, looked at the prime minister's mansion, and secretly sighed that the new emperor ascended the throne, and the rewards given must be quite a lot.
"Wanwan, Yutang, you follow me." After chatting for a while, Shi Qiran suddenly got up, called his daughter and son-in-law, and walked to the study.
Shi Wanwan and Chu Yutang looked at each other, it was an agreement they had made before.If dad took the initiative to talk to them, he would wait for the opportunity to express their thoughts.If dad keeps taking the opportunity to avoid them, they have to work hard to persuade him to fulfill their choice.
"I went back to visit my relatives in the south of the Yangtze River this time. I didn't expect it to take such a long time. However, Dad is very happy now because I see that you are living a good life. I have already heard what happened to the Chu family business before, and I blame Dad for being careless. I didn't realize that the prefect of Jiangzhou was a fool. Fortunately, the timing was well grasped, and the firm and the prime minister's residence are both safe and sound." Shi Qiran opened his mouth without pretending to be deep.
"Father, thank you! Thank you for everything you have done for me and my husband." Shi Wanwan used to always think that her father and elder brother would only plan to make herself a princess, but only now did she truly appreciate the warmth and selflessness of family affection.
Shi Qiran waved his hand and said: "You are my daughter, there is nothing to say that I will protect you comprehensively. However, I am going to hand over this important task to Chu Yutang, and let the Chu family protect you in the future."
After finishing speaking, Shi Qiran looked at Chu Yutang meaningfully.When Shi Wanwan heard her father's words, she obviously let go and was willing to let herself marry into the Chu family, she couldn't help being overjoyed.
Pulling Chu Yutang's sleeve, he said in a low voice, "Husband, thank you for your fulfillment!"
Chu Yutang quickly bowed, and said respectfully: "Thank you, father-in-law, for your fulfillment and trust. I, Chu Yutang, will do my best to protect my wife for the rest of my life."
Shi Qiran was still a little bit reluctant to part with his daughter, he snorted lightly, rolled his eyes, and said, "That's because you performed well in Jiangnan before. If you dare to bully Wan Wan in the future, I will ask Lang Yun to bring her back immediately!"
Although they received Shi Qiran's serious warning, the young couple were all happy and looked at each other with smiles.Shi Qiran sat on the teacher's chair, although he kept a serious expression on his face, but the corners of his eyes couldn't help revealing a bit of joy and relief.
After the father's lecture is finished, the next step is the teaching of the elder brother.Compared to Shi Langyun, he is much more refined, and his speech is more tactful.It's just that he chose to talk to his sister alone, because it's better for Chu Yutang not to know the content involved.
"Brother, why do you look at me with this expression?" Shi Wanwan saw that Shi Langyun was looking at her with a very strange look.
"Wan Wan, now that you're back in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you're completely safe. Tell me the truth, when you were in the south of the Yangtze River, you forced me to help you get rid of Liu Yu'an, really because you wanted to avenge her for framing you? "
Shi Wanwan's expression remained the same, and she said: "That's natural. Although she didn't succeed, she caused me to be unconscious for such a long time that I almost couldn't wake up again. Could it be that I can't take revenge for this revenge?"
Shi Langyun stared fixedly at his sister, and after a long time, he said, "Wanwan, you are not this kind of person. Liu Yu'an's evil deeds will naturally be tried by the government. If you use lynching to punish her, my elder brother thinks you must be fine." There are other reasons. If you hadn't insisted on pushing her, she might..."
Shi Wanwan quickly intercepted Shi Langyun's words, and asked back: "Maybe what? Maybe she doesn't have to die? Big brother, do you know how many lives were on Liu Yu'an's hands? Other than Liu Yu'an, and Yan's. But there are conclusive witnesses and physical evidence. Tried according to the law, is she also a capital crime? Is there a big difference between dying early and dying later?"
Shi Langyun took a deep breath and sighed: "Since you don't want to tell the truth to elder brother, then elder brother will not force you. As your elder brother, I don't have much sympathy for people who hurt my sister like this. But You have to promise big brother that you will never have such thoughts in the future, no."
Shi Wanwan hummed, which was her agreement.
Shi Langyun thought for a while, and then said: "There is one more thing, very important, I have to tell you. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the successor position is still vacant. The former crown princess was implicated by the family in the party struggle. Has been demoted. Now many people are discussing who the future queen will be."
Shi Wanwan was a little surprised at her elder brother's worries. She had been married for so long, so she might not be chosen to be the queen, right?
"The queen is hopeless, but she still seems to care about you very much. If he wants to take you into the palace and become a concubine, it's not impossible." Shi Langyun's words were like five thunderclaps, shaking Shi Wanwan dizzy.
"So, you stay in the south of the Yangtze River from now on, and it's better not to go back to the capital. Dad and I will find opportunities to visit you. Moreover, you'd better have children with Chu Yutang as soon as possible, and have more children named Chu. This matter The chances of things being successful will be much smaller."
Shi Wanwan's complexion also sank, judging by her elder brother's appearance, this matter was not groundless.Fortunately, the foundation of the new emperor is not stable now, so he has no time to take care of her for the time being.I also thought about the great help of the Chu family's firm in times of crisis, and it was not the work of a bright gentleman to blatantly take away his wife.It's just that for some things, it's better to take precautions before they happen.It's a pity that the matter of heirs is really a bit embarrassing.
Shi Wanwan didn't tell Chu Yutang what Shi Langyun said.She accompanied Chu Yutang to meet Liu Feng and his wife, and saw that Big Brother Liu was still guarding the semicolon in the capital in a well-regulated way. Although he didn't expand his career, the effect of keeping it was not bad.Chu Yutang didn't want to expand the influence of the Chu family's firm in the north, so as not to arouse the emperor's suspicion.Therefore, in addition to being grateful and comforting Liu Feng, he also solemnly begged him to continue to serve as the steward of the Beijing branch. The wealth brought by this job can be regarded as Chu Yutang's reward for Liu Feng and his wife's enthusiastic shelter back then.
"A Chu, have you really decided to give Tangbang Pavilion to the princess?" Shi Wanwan was a little puzzled by this decision.
Chu Yutang looked relaxed and disapproving: "Since the princess likes it, it's okay to give it to her. She has helped us so much, and it doesn't hurt to give her a shop. Besides, you don't like candy, so why should I keep it?" .”
Shi Wanwan choked, and said softly, "How do you know I don't like food?"
Only then did Chu Yutang put down the exquisite purse that he was caressing repeatedly in his hand, and said, "It's not because you refused to tell me the truth. When you were unconscious, I wanted to buy you candy, hoping to use sugar to give you Coax it up. As a result, Cumulus told me that since your mother passed away, you have never eaten candy again."
Thinking of this, Chu Yutang was still very annoyed, blaming himself for being too self-righteous at the time, thinking that most girls love candy, so it is reasonable to think that Shi Wanwan would also like it.
"Actually, it's not like I don't like eating, but since then, I don't have any desire to eat. But in the future, I will have a bigger donut, so I wonder if I can eat it?" Shi Wanwan changed the topic, Looking at Chu Yutang meaningfully.
Chu Yutang suddenly felt a gust of cold wind hit his face, so he could only protect his small purse with all his strength, and went back to the room first with a smile.Seeing Chu Yutang's appearance, Shi Wanwan looked around the room, the previous fragments were vivid in his memory, but the scenes from the Jiangnan period were added.
Shi Wanwan's words have shocked Shi Wanwan so far.Before this, she never thought that a mother would spend her whole life in caring for her child's growth, just to cultivate this child into a flower in a greenhouse, which could not withstand any wind and rain, without any Ability, will only obey unconditionally, step by step towards the path of destruction paved for her.According to Yan's original expectation, Chu Yutang obediently listened to her arrangement, grew up to adulthood, married Liu Yu'an, and then changed her life with Liu Yu'an's hand, and let the foundation of the Chu family's business be ruined by Master Chu's only one. In the blood, Liu Yu'an and Chu Yutang died together in the end.She watched with cold eyes how Xu lived in pain.
For so many years, Mrs. Yan attached her love for Master Chu and her hatred for his change of heart to Chu Yutang, so she took Chu Yutang away from Mrs. Xu. Day after day, I watched her grow into a fool with sound limbs but no brains and no understanding of the world.The pain in Yan's heart was released a little bit, and the pain that had been accumulated for many years had the hope of reaching the end.
Unexpectedly, everything changed suddenly, Chu Yutang disappeared as soon as he said he couldn't see her.Everything she had arranged was disrupted, and Shi Wanwan appeared in the end, which was even more difficult to deal with.This made Yan's exasperated, but Liu Yu'an also became restless.Once the marriage contract between the two families is broken, Liu Yu'an will never obey the Yan family again in order to cling to the Chu family as in the past. Years of painstaking efforts have been ruined once but cannot be recovered, and the Yan family can only watch her go. On the road of destruction.
On that day in the meditation room, Yan himself drank the tea prepared by Liu Yu'an without knowing it, so that he lost control of his mind.Shi Wanwan recalled afterwards that it should be Liu Yu'an who wanted to use Yan's hand to eradicate Shi Wanwan, and then kill Yan's.Unexpectedly, after Yan Shi had vented all her thoughts, she was already unconscious. When she saw Shi Wanwan fell to the ground, she ran out unsteadily by herself.The people who were ordered to kill Yan met her halfway and ended her life in the back mountain.
Liu Yu'an had calculated thousands of times, but she didn't realize that there were so many secrets accumulated in Yan's heart, and when she finished telling her all the pain, the most insane effect of the medicine had already been released along with her tears. few.
This has become Shi Wanwan's secret now, and she decided to keep it well for Chu Yutang, because she is willing to bear such a heavy truth for Chu Yutang.After all, if the Tang beside her becomes bitter in the future, she will not feel good eating it.
"Wan Wan, in fact, when He Mingxuan told me that the Chu family's business used to get rich by smuggling private salt, I couldn't believe it. He also said that my father also participated in it. It will be murdered. No matter how I think about it, I don’t believe it. However, since then, the Chu family’s firm has lost a lot of silver income, which is true. For this reason, I checked the account books many years ago.”
On the way to do business outside the Great Wall, Chu Yutang held Shi Wanwan's waist and said with a soft sigh.
"Then aren't you bringing everything back to normal now? Ah Chu, since some things have passed, there is no need to worry too much. Life always depends on the future, and we should also look further ahead If you always look back, I'm afraid this road will be very hard." Shi Wanwan squinted her eyes, the wind and sand outside the Great Wall was not small, and the glare of the sun was also fierce.But she just wanted to try a different experience from her past life, so Chu Yutang must ride a camel with her.
"This time, if we can negotiate with Boss Ju's business partner to transport our tea and silk to the outside of the pass, and then exchange the horses to the pass, our business will be no worse than that of Dad. I am the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River What?" Chu Yutang raised his chin with longing and expectation, facing the sun, and said with pride.
"So what about the richest man? You still owe me money." Shi Wanwan successfully suppressed Chu Yutang's arrogance with one sentence.
"Yes, yes, what the lady said is right! I have to work harder, work harder, and the interest will still be enough." After speaking, Chu Yutang pressed her soft lips to Shi Wanwan's slightly hot face.
"You!" Shi Wanwan was hugged by Chu Yutang at this moment, and she was sitting on the camel again, unable to move.
"One is not enough, right? Then get another one! Remember, don't charge me interest!"
Boss Ju was not far away, looking at the two figures playing and entangled with each other from time to time on the desert, he smiled slightly.
"Brother Chu, thank you for giving me all your money back then, so that I can live outside the pass. Now I can finally repay this kindness."
The wind was blowing outside the pass, but to Chu Yutang and Shi Wanwan, all the scenes were novel and magnificent.The two of them seemed to have completely forgotten the hardships and exhaustion of the journey, and they were still looking at the stars at night.
"Ah Chu, look there, there is a star so bright." Shi Wanwan was wrapped in a thick blanket, leaning on Chu Yutang's shoulder.
"The star around me is the brightest, not only bright, but also beautiful!"
The author has something to say: Alright, the main text is over tonight!Tomorrow there will be two extra chapters, one is about Shi Wanwan, it will talk about her past in the prime minister's mansion and in the capital; the other chapter is about the young couple's experience of doing business outside the Great Wall.Friends who are not interested can stop buying.The two chapters that were deleted were originally planned to be stewed meat soup, but now there is no way to do it, so I can only regret to cancel it.
The old rules, it's over, thank you for being with me for so long, I hope we can meet again soon.Friends who are interested in docking documents can go to the column to bookmark them, and those who are not interested in Xinkeng can also bookmark the author’s column, so that there will be notifications when new documents are opened in the future~~
Alright, let’s randomly drop red envelopes in this chapter, okay!
"No, you're right, I'll take it as your compliment." Shi Wanwan walked towards her, and gradually approached her.
Chu Yutang was full of anticipation, thinking that he would at least get a light kiss as a reward.Unexpectedly, Shi Wanwan walked straight in front of her, turned sideways, and walked away lightly.
"However, you also reminded me that I shouldn't let you listen too much, lest you can't even speak. From tonight, you can sleep in the study."
Chu Yutang's small face drooped weakly, it seemed that his fingertips were indeed a little too active last night, otherwise Wanwan's walking posture just now would not be a little abnormal.But this can't be said, Chu Yutang can't do things that make Wanwan lose face.Anyway, we are about to go out, so it's okay to sleep in the study for a few days, don't we have to share a room together on the way?hey-hey.
The Xu family reluctantly took Chu Yutang and Shi Wanwan out, and Chu Yutang was quite at ease with Uncle Ji taking care of the house and business.In addition, now that her father-in-law, the prime minister, is in the limelight, who would dare to play tricks behind her back and provoke Chu Yutang?
"Yu'er, Wanwan, this time you enter Beijing, be careful all the way, you two have to take good care of each other. Don't make me worry at home, you know?" Xu's eyes are full of reluctance, but she also knows that returning to Beijing is a The imperative cannot be hindered.
"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely protect Wan Wan. But this time we have to go outside the Great Wall with Boss Ju, and we may not be able to come back to celebrate the New Year with you." Chu Yutang felt a little guilty, thinking of the end of the year, My mother was going to be alone in the south of the Yangtze River, and I felt very uncomfortable.
But Mrs. Xu laughed, comforted the two, and said, "It's okay, business is important. When you come back from outside the Great Wall, our family will be reunited, and every day will be like New Year's Eve."
Shi Wanwan was also at the side comforting Chu Yutang, saying: "Mother is right, there will be a long time to come. As long as our family is together, we will be reunited."
Hearing both Xu Shi and Shi Wanwan say this, the sorrow of parting in Chu Yutang's heart immediately dissipated a lot.Presumably this was the happiest trip away from home in her memory.Although his fate has been changed, since Liu Yu'an died, it seems that the situation of changing his fate has been broken.Shi Wanwan asked the person imprisoned in the mansion to confirm again and again, and then everyone suddenly realized that to break this law, they had to pay with the life of the guarantor.What's more, Chu Yutang's life-protecting jade has been intact, and Liu Yu'an's game is not completely successful.
This is what the so-called "changing fate with life" means.However, Liu Yu'an's death has not yet been determined. Suicide and homicide are both possible. After all, Liu Yu'an used all means to achieve his goals and offended many people, especially those few partners who were miserably cheated by her. Lost a lot of money.And her own sins are also very serious, and it is not impossible to suddenly wake up.Chu Yutang would think of this matter occasionally, but felt that he shouldn't delve into it. After all, Liu Yu'an, the last trace of ties with him had been eliminated.In the future life, you should not be occupied by this person, and even a little space should not be wasted.
"Ah Chu, what are you thinking about? You haven't said a word for so long." On the way to Beijing, Chu Yutang was extremely quiet, and Shi Wanwan could tell that she had something on her mind.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just feel a little sad when I think of Liu Yu'an's death." Shi Wanwan's face changed slightly when she heard Chu Yutang mention this name.But Chu Yutang paid attention to what he said, and didn't turn his face to look at Shi Wanwan.
"This is what she deserves, isn't it?" Shi Wanwan said calmly.
Chu Yutang thought for a while, then nodded.
"Yes, she has done so many bad things, and there is nothing wrong with such an ending. However, I always feel that she is not someone who would admit defeat so easily. How could she commit suicide overnight. "
"A Chu, when you look at people, you often only see the surface. Even if you have known her for ten years, the other side of her is very strange to you. So you use the her in your memory to try to figure it out. It is difficult to draw accurate conclusions. Besides, when a person is at the bottom, his heart is full of expectations and motivation to climb to the peak, and his endurance is naturally sufficient. But when a person is already at the peak, it is not always necessary to let her go down. Everyone has this tenacity.”
"Well, it's better for Wanwan to see the problem thoroughly. If it were me, I wouldn't have thought of this. After all, Liu Yu'an was already extremely inflated at that time. Besides, when the prefect of Jiangzhou fell, she used fake goods to make up for the amount. There is no way to hide the good inside story. It is indeed difficult to end, so thinking about it, it is understandable for her to make such a choice."
Seeing Chu Yutang's words were plausible, Shi Wanwan didn't continue to say anything, her eyes seemed to be relieved.After all, there are some things that Chu Yutang is unwilling to bear with herself, and that pure and innocent state of mind is something that Shi Wanwan insists on protecting.It's just that in this world, many good things need more cruel means to maintain.

Shi Wanwan was able to guess her father's intentions from the change in her eldest brother's eyes. It seems that Chu Yutang's firm support for the prince played a big role during her coma.In the precarious days, nothing is more real than real gold and silver. The prince can succeed to the throne smoothly in the end, and the prime minister's mansion escaped from prison and regained the honor because of the million taels of silver.
"When you arrive in the capital, you have to think about how to face everything?" Shi Wanwan knew that the former prince and the current emperor would not turn a deaf ear to Chu Yutang's entry into the capital.

The difficult years of raising money everywhere made her serious again. The thoughtful father once firmly kept the firm away from the rules of the government.
"That can't be done, you still owe me a lot of money, you can't let others take it all away." Shi Wanwan kept the paper slip that Chu Yutang made for her and the bed sheet together, maybe it was a secret that belonged to her heart .She wants to keep these as a testimony of their feelings and keep them forever.
"Wanwan, I've performed so well, can't I use my hard work to deduct the deduction?"
Shi Wanwan shook her head as expected, and said: "Isn't it an advantage for you to be diligent? There is no harm in persevering. As for the money owed, you are also a businessman, and you should know best. Brothers have to settle accounts clearly, let alone ..."
"But we are closer than brothers! Brothers don't have to kiss and hug each other every day when they go to sleep. Are we still farther than brothers?" Chu Yutang was anxious to defend himself, but Shi Wanwan gave him a sharp slap His eyes were closed, and he stopped talking.
"You can rest assured when you go back to the prime minister's mansion, but if you are announced into the palace, you can't talk as you please." Shi Wanwan's eyes were a little worried.
This time, Shi Langyun, as an imperial envoy, went to the south of the Yangtze River to rectify and deal with the remnants of King Qi. He was busy with official duties, and there was little time for the dialogue between the siblings to explain in detail.During the few short conversations, Shi Wanwan vaguely felt that there was a problem that needed to be faced and resolved when she entered Beijing.But this time, having Chu Yutang by his side was both encouragement and weakness.
Traveling thousands of miles, walking with a loving person will not feel the journey is boring.Chu Yutang actually felt that taking a carriage to Beijing seemed a better choice than taking a boat, because not only would she not get seasick, but she could also get closer to Shi Wanwan.
Reunited after a long absence, Shi Qiran saw his daughter and son-in-law, as if they were separated from each other, wanting to cry without tears.Shi Wanwan could understand the pressure and torture her father suffered when the prime minister's mansion was in crisis, her eyes were sore, she no longer restrained her feelings, threw herself into her father's arms, and twitched in a muffled voice.
Chu Yutang was not surprised by this move, and his eyes turned red as he watched from the side.Shi Qiran and Shi Langting who had been staying in the Prime Minister's Mansion stared wide-eyed, as if they couldn't believe that this woman crying in her father's arms turned out to be Shi Wanwan, who was known for being deserted in the past.
Shi Langyun was calmer than them, and he could more or less sense that the changes in his sister in Jiangnan were due to Chu Yutang.Just like this time he took the initiative to persuade his father that he should change his view of Chu Yutang, whether it was donating silver or taking care of Shi Wanwan without changing his original intention, it was enough to prove that Chu Yutang was someone Shi Wanwan could entrust to him for life.Even if something happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Yutang still has the ability to keep Shi Wanwan.
Shi Qiran raised his hand stiffly, and lightly landed on his daughter's shoulder, patted it half-empty and half-solid, and said, "Wan Wan, don't cry, don't cry, your crying will break Dad's heart." gone."
Chu Yutang couldn't help laughing inwardly when he saw the always majestic father-in-law look at a loss.However, Shi Wanwan's emotions were only revealed for a moment, and after the feeling of longing was released, she quickly adjusted.I also know that it is inappropriate for the public to do so now.He quickly stood up from his father's arms, and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face.
"Enter the room, let's talk slowly after we enter the room." Shi Qiran looked at his daughter's complexion, he had received a letter from Cui Yun and Fei Xia before, saying that Wan Wan suddenly fell into a coma for no reason in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was afraid that her daughter's old illness would relapse.But at that time, he and Shi Langyun were assisting the crown prince and the king of Qi in a life-and-death battle, and the situation was very unfavorable to them.Under such circumstances, he really couldn't get away to bring Shi Wanwan back, and he really didn't dare to bring his daughter back in such a situation.
After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Yutang's greatest feeling was that the whole house had obviously been refurbished, the area seemed to be more spacious than before, and many places had been completely renewed and more magnificent.The current prime minister's mansion is more like a prime minister's mansion than in the past.
Chu Yutang is now in charge of the firm by herself, although she has a lot of money in and out, she is much better than when she only knew how to spend money and didn't ask the price.She had a rough idea of the prices of many materials, looked at the prime minister's mansion, and secretly sighed that the new emperor ascended the throne, and the rewards given must be quite a lot.
"Wanwan, Yutang, you follow me." After chatting for a while, Shi Qiran suddenly got up, called his daughter and son-in-law, and walked to the study.
Shi Wanwan and Chu Yutang looked at each other, it was an agreement they had made before.If dad took the initiative to talk to them, he would wait for the opportunity to express their thoughts.If dad keeps taking the opportunity to avoid them, they have to work hard to persuade him to fulfill their choice.
"I went back to visit my relatives in the south of the Yangtze River this time. I didn't expect it to take such a long time. However, Dad is very happy now because I see that you are living a good life. I have already heard what happened to the Chu family business before, and I blame Dad for being careless. I didn't realize that the prefect of Jiangzhou was a fool. Fortunately, the timing was well grasped, and the firm and the prime minister's residence are both safe and sound." Shi Qiran opened his mouth without pretending to be deep.
"Father, thank you! Thank you for everything you have done for me and my husband." Shi Wanwan used to always think that her father and elder brother would only plan to make herself a princess, but only now did she truly appreciate the warmth and selflessness of family affection.
Shi Qiran waved his hand and said: "You are my daughter, there is nothing to say that I will protect you comprehensively. However, I am going to hand over this important task to Chu Yutang, and let the Chu family protect you in the future."
After finishing speaking, Shi Qiran looked at Chu Yutang meaningfully.When Shi Wanwan heard her father's words, she obviously let go and was willing to let herself marry into the Chu family, she couldn't help being overjoyed.
Pulling Chu Yutang's sleeve, he said in a low voice, "Husband, thank you for your fulfillment!"
Chu Yutang quickly bowed, and said respectfully: "Thank you, father-in-law, for your fulfillment and trust. I, Chu Yutang, will do my best to protect my wife for the rest of my life."
Shi Qiran was still a little bit reluctant to part with his daughter, he snorted lightly, rolled his eyes, and said, "That's because you performed well in Jiangnan before. If you dare to bully Wan Wan in the future, I will ask Lang Yun to bring her back immediately!"
Although they received Shi Qiran's serious warning, the young couple were all happy and looked at each other with smiles.Shi Qiran sat on the teacher's chair, although he kept a serious expression on his face, but the corners of his eyes couldn't help revealing a bit of joy and relief.
After the father's lecture is finished, the next step is the teaching of the elder brother.Compared to Shi Langyun, he is much more refined, and his speech is more tactful.It's just that he chose to talk to his sister alone, because it's better for Chu Yutang not to know the content involved.
"Brother, why do you look at me with this expression?" Shi Wanwan saw that Shi Langyun was looking at her with a very strange look.
"Wan Wan, now that you're back in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you're completely safe. Tell me the truth, when you were in the south of the Yangtze River, you forced me to help you get rid of Liu Yu'an, really because you wanted to avenge her for framing you? "
Shi Wanwan's expression remained the same, and she said: "That's natural. Although she didn't succeed, she caused me to be unconscious for such a long time that I almost couldn't wake up again. Could it be that I can't take revenge for this revenge?"
Shi Langyun stared fixedly at his sister, and after a long time, he said, "Wanwan, you are not this kind of person. Liu Yu'an's evil deeds will naturally be tried by the government. If you use lynching to punish her, my elder brother thinks you must be fine." There are other reasons. If you hadn't insisted on pushing her, she might..."
Shi Wanwan quickly intercepted Shi Langyun's words, and asked back: "Maybe what? Maybe she doesn't have to die? Big brother, do you know how many lives were on Liu Yu'an's hands? Other than Liu Yu'an, and Yan's. But there are conclusive witnesses and physical evidence. Tried according to the law, is she also a capital crime? Is there a big difference between dying early and dying later?"
Shi Langyun took a deep breath and sighed: "Since you don't want to tell the truth to elder brother, then elder brother will not force you. As your elder brother, I don't have much sympathy for people who hurt my sister like this. But You have to promise big brother that you will never have such thoughts in the future, no."
Shi Wanwan hummed, which was her agreement.
Shi Langyun thought for a while, and then said: "There is one more thing, very important, I have to tell you. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the successor position is still vacant. The former crown princess was implicated by the family in the party struggle. Has been demoted. Now many people are discussing who the future queen will be."
Shi Wanwan was a little surprised at her elder brother's worries. She had been married for so long, so she might not be chosen to be the queen, right?
"The queen is hopeless, but she still seems to care about you very much. If he wants to take you into the palace and become a concubine, it's not impossible." Shi Langyun's words were like five thunderclaps, shaking Shi Wanwan dizzy.
"So, you stay in the south of the Yangtze River from now on, and it's better not to go back to the capital. Dad and I will find opportunities to visit you. Moreover, you'd better have children with Chu Yutang as soon as possible, and have more children named Chu. This matter The chances of things being successful will be much smaller."
Shi Wanwan's complexion also sank, judging by her elder brother's appearance, this matter was not groundless.Fortunately, the foundation of the new emperor is not stable now, so he has no time to take care of her for the time being.I also thought about the great help of the Chu family's firm in times of crisis, and it was not the work of a bright gentleman to blatantly take away his wife.It's just that for some things, it's better to take precautions before they happen.It's a pity that the matter of heirs is really a bit embarrassing.
Shi Wanwan didn't tell Chu Yutang what Shi Langyun said.She accompanied Chu Yutang to meet Liu Feng and his wife, and saw that Big Brother Liu was still guarding the semicolon in the capital in a well-regulated way. Although he didn't expand his career, the effect of keeping it was not bad.Chu Yutang didn't want to expand the influence of the Chu family's firm in the north, so as not to arouse the emperor's suspicion.Therefore, in addition to being grateful and comforting Liu Feng, he also solemnly begged him to continue to serve as the steward of the Beijing branch. The wealth brought by this job can be regarded as Chu Yutang's reward for Liu Feng and his wife's enthusiastic shelter back then.
"A Chu, have you really decided to give Tangbang Pavilion to the princess?" Shi Wanwan was a little puzzled by this decision.
Chu Yutang looked relaxed and disapproving: "Since the princess likes it, it's okay to give it to her. She has helped us so much, and it doesn't hurt to give her a shop. Besides, you don't like candy, so why should I keep it?" .”
Shi Wanwan choked, and said softly, "How do you know I don't like food?"
Only then did Chu Yutang put down the exquisite purse that he was caressing repeatedly in his hand, and said, "It's not because you refused to tell me the truth. When you were unconscious, I wanted to buy you candy, hoping to use sugar to give you Coax it up. As a result, Cumulus told me that since your mother passed away, you have never eaten candy again."
Thinking of this, Chu Yutang was still very annoyed, blaming himself for being too self-righteous at the time, thinking that most girls love candy, so it is reasonable to think that Shi Wanwan would also like it.
"Actually, it's not like I don't like eating, but since then, I don't have any desire to eat. But in the future, I will have a bigger donut, so I wonder if I can eat it?" Shi Wanwan changed the topic, Looking at Chu Yutang meaningfully.
Chu Yutang suddenly felt a gust of cold wind hit his face, so he could only protect his small purse with all his strength, and went back to the room first with a smile.Seeing Chu Yutang's appearance, Shi Wanwan looked around the room, the previous fragments were vivid in his memory, but the scenes from the Jiangnan period were added.
Shi Wanwan's words have shocked Shi Wanwan so far.Before this, she never thought that a mother would spend her whole life in caring for her child's growth, just to cultivate this child into a flower in a greenhouse, which could not withstand any wind and rain, without any Ability, will only obey unconditionally, step by step towards the path of destruction paved for her.According to Yan's original expectation, Chu Yutang obediently listened to her arrangement, grew up to adulthood, married Liu Yu'an, and then changed her life with Liu Yu'an's hand, and let the foundation of the Chu family's business be ruined by Master Chu's only one. In the blood, Liu Yu'an and Chu Yutang died together in the end.She watched with cold eyes how Xu lived in pain.
For so many years, Mrs. Yan attached her love for Master Chu and her hatred for his change of heart to Chu Yutang, so she took Chu Yutang away from Mrs. Xu. Day after day, I watched her grow into a fool with sound limbs but no brains and no understanding of the world.The pain in Yan's heart was released a little bit, and the pain that had been accumulated for many years had the hope of reaching the end.
Unexpectedly, everything changed suddenly, Chu Yutang disappeared as soon as he said he couldn't see her.Everything she had arranged was disrupted, and Shi Wanwan appeared in the end, which was even more difficult to deal with.This made Yan's exasperated, but Liu Yu'an also became restless.Once the marriage contract between the two families is broken, Liu Yu'an will never obey the Yan family again in order to cling to the Chu family as in the past. Years of painstaking efforts have been ruined once but cannot be recovered, and the Yan family can only watch her go. On the road of destruction.
On that day in the meditation room, Yan himself drank the tea prepared by Liu Yu'an without knowing it, so that he lost control of his mind.Shi Wanwan recalled afterwards that it should be Liu Yu'an who wanted to use Yan's hand to eradicate Shi Wanwan, and then kill Yan's.Unexpectedly, after Yan Shi had vented all her thoughts, she was already unconscious. When she saw Shi Wanwan fell to the ground, she ran out unsteadily by herself.The people who were ordered to kill Yan met her halfway and ended her life in the back mountain.
Liu Yu'an had calculated thousands of times, but she didn't realize that there were so many secrets accumulated in Yan's heart, and when she finished telling her all the pain, the most insane effect of the medicine had already been released along with her tears. few.
This has become Shi Wanwan's secret now, and she decided to keep it well for Chu Yutang, because she is willing to bear such a heavy truth for Chu Yutang.After all, if the Tang beside her becomes bitter in the future, she will not feel good eating it.
"Wan Wan, in fact, when He Mingxuan told me that the Chu family's business used to get rich by smuggling private salt, I couldn't believe it. He also said that my father also participated in it. It will be murdered. No matter how I think about it, I don’t believe it. However, since then, the Chu family’s firm has lost a lot of silver income, which is true. For this reason, I checked the account books many years ago.”
On the way to do business outside the Great Wall, Chu Yutang held Shi Wanwan's waist and said with a soft sigh.
"Then aren't you bringing everything back to normal now? Ah Chu, since some things have passed, there is no need to worry too much. Life always depends on the future, and we should also look further ahead If you always look back, I'm afraid this road will be very hard." Shi Wanwan squinted her eyes, the wind and sand outside the Great Wall was not small, and the glare of the sun was also fierce.But she just wanted to try a different experience from her past life, so Chu Yutang must ride a camel with her.
"This time, if we can negotiate with Boss Ju's business partner to transport our tea and silk to the outside of the pass, and then exchange the horses to the pass, our business will be no worse than that of Dad. I am the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River What?" Chu Yutang raised his chin with longing and expectation, facing the sun, and said with pride.
"So what about the richest man? You still owe me money." Shi Wanwan successfully suppressed Chu Yutang's arrogance with one sentence.
"Yes, yes, what the lady said is right! I have to work harder, work harder, and the interest will still be enough." After speaking, Chu Yutang pressed her soft lips to Shi Wanwan's slightly hot face.
"You!" Shi Wanwan was hugged by Chu Yutang at this moment, and she was sitting on the camel again, unable to move.
"One is not enough, right? Then get another one! Remember, don't charge me interest!"
Boss Ju was not far away, looking at the two figures playing and entangled with each other from time to time on the desert, he smiled slightly.
"Brother Chu, thank you for giving me all your money back then, so that I can live outside the pass. Now I can finally repay this kindness."
The wind was blowing outside the pass, but to Chu Yutang and Shi Wanwan, all the scenes were novel and magnificent.The two of them seemed to have completely forgotten the hardships and exhaustion of the journey, and they were still looking at the stars at night.
"Ah Chu, look there, there is a star so bright." Shi Wanwan was wrapped in a thick blanket, leaning on Chu Yutang's shoulder.
"The star around me is the brightest, not only bright, but also beautiful!"
