Awakened Xiangfu Qianjin

Liu Yu'an went back to her room, combed and dressed carefully, and changed the clothes she saw her father just now with Chu Yutang's favorite warm-colored skirt before slowly walking to the front hall.Chu Yutang had been sitting there waiting for an hour, and Liu Yu'an could recognize that figure without taking a second look.It is too familiar. In the past ten years, their figures with each other, from far to near, slowly approached, until they cuddled each other.

Now, they are all grown up, but it is no longer possible to be the closest person.

"Yu Tang?" Liu Yu'an calmed down her emotions, took a deep breath, and then formally entered the front hall.

Hearing this call, Chu Yutang hastily put down the teacup in his hand.

Chu Yutang, who had knelt in the Buddhist hall all night, had lost the flexibility of his knees.The range of motion is slightly larger, and it hurts.But she still asked Yan Shi to go to Liu's house to clarify the marriage contract in person at the first time.Originally, the Yan family only planned to punish Chu Yutang for a day or two. After all, she is now the aunt of the Xiangfu, and the daughter of the Xiangfu and the young master of the Xiangfu are still living in the yard.

When the mistress punishes the disobedient son, others will naturally not talk too much.But if the punishment is excessive, it is impossible for a wife or brother-in-law to sit idly by.And the Liu family really couldn't hide it for long, instead of waiting for the other party to come to the door angrily, it would be better for Chu Yutang to go forward on his own initiative.At least there is a premise of sincerity in attitude.

But Yan also felt strange that Chu Yutang always wanted to hide behind her in this kind of thing.Even if she had to face it, she would definitely pull herself to prepare a lot of reasons for her.Why is it so urgent to go today? Could it be that Shi Wanwan gave her an idea?

Yan shi vented out the worry and anger that had been suppressed for so long yesterday, with a stronger force, and it inadvertently spread to Shi Wanwan.Fortunately, Shi Wanwan's personality is calm and introverted, and her temper doesn't seem to be as arrogant as ordinary official ladies.After returning to her room, Yan thought about it calmly, but felt that this Shi Wanwan was not easy to get along with.

Although in the Buddhist hall, Yan could see Shi Wanwan's concern for Chu Yutang.But Shi Wanwan treats others with an attitude of being able to speak little but not speaking. Except for her two personal servant girls and her elder brother, Shi Wanwan hardly communicates with other people.Yesterday, the Yan family specially tried to test Shi Wanwan's reaction by punishing Chu Yutang, but they gained little.

Before Chu Yutang went to Liu's house today, he specifically emphasized that Shi Wanwan suffers from a strange disease and often sleeps for a long time for no reason.So if Shi Wanwan didn't take the initiative to walk out of the room, no one can rashly disturb her.Otherwise, when the prime minister blames it, no one can afford it.Although it is the first time for Yan to be a mother-in-law, she knows that the prime minister's family cannot be offended too much.In the future, as long as Chu Yutang is not at home, I'm afraid she will not take the initiative to provoke this delicate Xiangfu daughter, lest she get into trouble and even jump into the river to wash it off.

Seeing Chu Yutang hastily put down the teacup and the water stains on the corners of her mouth, Liu Yu'an was stunned for a moment, then chuckled again.

Shi Shiran walked in and stood in front of Chu Yutang. Liu Yuan said softly as usual: "I heard that you came, but I still can't believe it. I have been ill for so long, and I haven't been able to take care of you." You, now it seems that you look pretty good."

Chu Yutang's expression was a little awkward and blunt. On the way here, she imagined many scenes where they would meet.Unexpectedly, Liu Yu'an chose the most nonchalant way.Listening to her tone, it seemed that she didn't know anything about herself in the capital.

Tilting his head slightly, he gave Liu Yu'an a usual smile, and Chu Yutang said, "Long time no see, Sister Yu'an."

Liu Yu'an looked at Chu Yutang's expression, his eyes froze, but he still didn't change the gentle look on his face.

"Actually, when I was ill, an expert took me to the capital for treatment. By chance, I had a new opportunity. That's why I delayed my return to Jiangnan until now. It was my fault that I couldn't tell you in time." Chu Yutang avoided Liu Yu'an's eyes and said with a smile.

Seeing Liu Yu'an standing in front of him, Chu Yutang wanted to get up and ask her to sit down.Trying to support the armrest, Chu Yutang struggled to get up, but was pressed by a tender hand on his shoulder.

"Since it's hard, don't get up. This is my home, and I should take care of you. Besides, you don't like these things, so don't force yourself." After speaking, Liu Yu'an let go and stroked Chu Yutang's shoulder hand, walked slowly to her side and sat down.

Chu Yutang's eyes only had contact with Liu Yu'an when she first came in.After that, she deliberately avoided her eyes, which made Liu Yu'an feel ironic.It seems that what Dad said before should be true.In Chu Yutang's heart, there was already someone else's place.And the scorching eyes that were chasing after him had become dissociated and unwilling to look at him any more.

"Yu Tang, come to see me today, what's the matter?" Seeing that Chu Yu Tang had been silent for a long time, Liu Yu'an could only ask her.

Chu Yutang turned his head, looked at her, hesitated and said, "I think, you should have heard about what happened to me now."

The corners of Liu Yu'an's lips raised slightly, then stopped, but shook her head.

"I only know that your illness should be cured."

Chu Yutang paused, and said, "It's not about this.

Liu Yu'an had a half-smile, and said, "Is there something else?" After she finished speaking, she sighed again, "Since your illness, it seems that the distance between us has been far away. Now, your matters, There are more things I don’t know.”

When Chu Yutang heard what Liu Yu'an said, his heart skipped a beat.But these words must be pointed out to Liu Yu'an today, the longer the delay, the greater the impact on the subsequent plans.

"This matter will hit you hard. But I have to tell you the truth, because it is even more wrong to lie to you." Chu Yutang looked at Liu Yu'an, and slowed down his speech, "I am in the capital. I'm married. I married the daughter of the Xiangfu, Shi Wanwan. Now I am the uncle of the Xiangfu and Shi Wanwan's husband. Therefore, the marriage contract between you and me may not continue."

Chu Yutang had practiced this passage countless times, but when she was facing Liu Yu'an, she realized that it was so difficult to finish the sentence coherently.

All Liu Yu'an's movements stopped, including the hand holding the teacup, which stopped at the position just now.Her gaze gradually emptied and retracted, her eyelashes blinked from slow to fast, and blinked faster and faster, but the corners of her mouth were tense again.

It's really a crying expression.

"I know you must have a lot of questions that I want to answer. I don't know what the reason is for the time being, but there is one thing, I think about it now, we should stop hiding between us." Chu Yutang looked at Liu Yu'an As it is now, after looking away, he said in a calm manner.

Liu Yu'an didn't seem to be able to adjust from the shock just now, she followed Chu Yutang's words dumbly, and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Chu Yutang looked around, and confirmed that the servants who were sent away by Liu Yu'an just now had indeed gone far away, and there were only the two of them in the hall at this moment.

"Actually, you don't like me that much. Not to mention that after you marry me, you can insist on being with me every day." Chu Yutang tried her best to calm herself and finish the sentence with restraint.

Even when she said this, she kept recalling the scenes of her and Liu Yu'an in the past in her mind.

When Liu Yu'an first heard this, she was extremely surprised and puzzled.She turned her face and looked at Chu Yutang in bewilderment.It seemed that the person who said this in front of her was not the Chu Yutang she knew at all.

"Yu Tang, what you said is a bit unfeeling. Could it be that you have been ill for too long, and your affection is so deep that you are sick?" Liu Yu'an clasped the tea lid hard, but her expression returned to calm.

"Every time you get close to me, you always dodge inadvertently. Even if words can hide it, your body has given the most authentic answer. You always like to stand a few steps away from people, even if you are In the last few steps towards me, you have hesitated and struggled."

Liu Yu'an looked a little cold, and looked up at Chu Yutang, but this time she didn't speak.

Seeing her reaction, Chu Yutang continued, "Actually, Sister Yu'an, you are more suitable to be my sister. And you want to be my sister more than my wife, don't you?"

Liu Yu'an frowned, and looked straight at Chu Yutang.

I saw that Chu Yutang's eyes had been waiting there for a long time, and now when they met Liu Yu'an's eyes, they collided with an invisible flame.

"Yutang, what you said is really ruthless. Do you want to write off the past ten years? Do you want to pretend that what you have done to me has never happened? Or, now you Your identity has changed, and there are new people around you, so you want to find such an old excuse to drive away the old people?"

Chu Yutang was a little impatient, but when she saw Liu Yu'an's appearance, she kept reminding herself in her heart that she must keep calm and never be more excited than Liu Yu'an.

"I will not deny the past, nor will I shirk it. If there was always a sincere relationship between you and me in the past, then what I, Chu Yutang, is doing now is outrageous. But Sister Yu'an, in the past ten years, you have Are you completely sincere to me? If you force me to marry me, will you be truly happy in the future?

Seeing that Liu Yu'an was deep in thought, Chu Yutang paused for a moment, and then said: "Today I came here to explain the current situation, and none of us can change it with the intervention of the Prime Minister's Office. Therefore, I want to discuss with you how we can make our relationship better." The relationship between them has been preserved and improved to the greatest extent?"

Liu Yu'an was very surprised by Chu Yutang's reaction. The excited defense, wavering and entanglement, and guilt pleading that she had expected never appeared.But Chu Yutang has always insisted that he does not want to change the status quo, but only wants to deal with the aftermath to the greatest extent.After thinking about it, she put the tea cup in her hand aside, and her expression finally changed slightly.

"Since the Xiangfu is involved, those of us who have always been able to work hard among the people, how dare we fight for anything. It's rare that Yutang still has the intention to come here to tell me this fact in person, what should I do?" I feel very grateful. At least, you have not forgotten that there was once me."

Liu Yu'an suddenly changed her strategy, no longer pretending not to know what to say.Instead, it was replaced by a weak, compassionate, and even humble sentimentality.

Chu Yutang suddenly realized that she would be very moved by Liu Yu'an's words in the past, because Sister An always pampered herself like this.Express understanding for all your decisions, and can always find reasons for yourself.But now, she looked at it from a different angle, but felt extremely ironic.In Liu Yu'an's words, every single word did not forget to remind him of his debt to her and her tolerance and sacrifice to him.

"I'm sorry, Sister Yu'an, I blame me for not telling you the truth earlier on this matter. If we could talk earlier, maybe we wouldn't be in the predicament we are facing now."

Liu Yu'an moved her lips, "It seems that no matter what I say, you have already decided that I don't mean it to you?"

Liu Yu'an laughed a little self-deprecatingly, stopped and thought for a while,

"But Yutang, although I don't know why the daughter of the Xiangfu married you in such a short period of time. But I still want to remind you that you should always have concerns about your identity, even if the daughter of the Xiangfu If you don't mind, her family and tribe may not mind."

Chu Yutang's long smile finally went cold.This was the last Liu Yu'an she saw in her previous life.Calm and cruel, she could just stand there and watch herself being deprived of everything, even her life, because of her identity being exposed.

"Sister Yu'an reminded me. I also know that this is a big problem. Over the years, what I am most grateful for is that you have kept this secret for me. Now, you finally don't have to work so hard anymore."

Liu Yu'an looked at Chu Yutang calmly. When she mentioned Chu Yutang's weakness, she just wanted to remind her that she didn't have everything in her hand.But she didn't expect that Chu Yutang would admit it so frankly.In this way, on the contrary, she didn't know how to answer the conversation.

Accompanied by Liu Yu'an's sudden silence, the only sound in the hall was the sound of teacups being picked up and put down.Liu Yu'an knew that maybe she should act like she was crying, or maybe she should burst into tears to make Chu Yutang feel guilty, but she just didn't do it.Because in the past ten years, she has known Chu Yutang too well.

Chu Yutang is a kind-hearted and simple-minded person. Since she was a child, she felt that there are no bad people in the world, let alone people who harm her for no reason.Therefore, Chu Yutang has always adhered to the principle that as long as he is a good person, no one will harm him, and he will never harm others.But today Chu Yutang is so determined to draw a clear line with her, which in itself is very inconsistent with Chu Yutang's character, which means that there must be other reasons for her to do so.If you blindly show pity, it won't work.It's better to choose to keep in touch with Chu Yutang, and it won't be too late to make a decision after she finds out the real reason.

"Yutang, I am very glad that you came here in person today. Although what you just said made my heart hurt and I am very sad. But I also thank you for your frankness. At least you have no intention of continuing to deceive me. It's just that this is a big marriage, the matchmaker In other words, just relying on the two of you and me, I'm afraid it won't work. If you really decide to cancel this engagement, I'm afraid you will have to trouble Uncle Yan's mother to come and tell my father."

Liu Yu'an thought about it, and decided to retreat.Since there seems to be no room for maneuver between her and Chu Yutang.Then push this matter to Yan Shi and see how she will deal with it.Anyway, father's attitude is very clear, if Yan Shi really comes, it depends on who will give in in the end.

Chu Yutang nodded deeply, expressing his approval.When she came today, she didn't intend to succeed once.It's nothing more than wanting to test Liu Yu'an's tone and attitude first. Since Liu Yu'an didn't cry, make trouble, hang himself, and didn't openly tear up face with her, instead he talked with her very calmly.Then her previous guess might be right: Liu Yu'an's thoughts are not on her at all.

Enduring the pain in his knee, Chu Yutang left Liu's house, taking every step with great difficulty.When she looked back at the plaque, a deep bitterness filled her heart.In the past, every time she came here and saw the plaque on the door of Liu's Mansion, she was in a particularly good mood, almost soaring to the sky.And every time she left, she always looked back several times reluctantly, as if there was always something to say and wanted to stay here and continue to say.

Only now, she couldn't tell what it was like, but felt that every step was so heavy that she couldn't lift her legs.But in her heart she really wanted to escape as quickly as possible, she didn't know how long she could hold on in peace in front of Liu Yu'an.

Back at Chu Mansion, Yan Shi knew she was back, but did not rush to call her to inquire about the situation.The marriage contract with the Liu family is an unavoidable problem.With Chu Yutang's little ability, if Liu Yuan refused to let go and refused to let go, Chu Yutang would not be able to settle for a while.Yan now wants to see what the daughter-in-law, who is said to only love to sleep all day, will do to Chu Yutang.

After all, it's not good for a mother-in-law to directly participate in this matter.If Shi Wanwan can resolve this matter smoothly, then the Chu family will certainly be in a good position to recognize this daughter-in-law.If Shi Wanwan didn't have the ability to settle things down, but messed things up, the Prime Minister's Mansion would naturally not say anything more.Maybe it's not impossible for Liu Yu'an to come in again.

"Ah Chu, what's the matter with you?" Shi Wanwan saw that the sky outside had changed, and was about to tell Fei Xia to go out to see when her uncle would come back, when she saw Chu Yutang's eyes were scarlet, and she left with a posture that was more limping than last night Come in.
