west wind sleepless

During the day, Huyun Temple is full of incense and bustling with faithful men and women; it is much quieter at night, especially at the end of autumn and early winter when the trees are desolate, accompanied by the faint ancient clock, it feels even more profound.

The galaxy is heavy, and the cold wind blows.Bypassing the majestic main hall and passing through the small pine and cypress garden, Yin Fengxiang and Yin Qingyu came to an exceptionally quiet small hall.

The door was ajar, and the Buddha statue, candle lamp, and a figure from the back could be faintly seen inside.

Yin Fengxiang stood in front of the door and said, "Mother."

The people inside did not turn around: "Come in."

Yin Fengxiang pushed open the door and led Yin Qingyu in.

— Madam used to live in Huyun Temple!Yin Qingyu stood in the dark room, feeling the faint oppression around her.Once Madam finds out... No, maybe she already knows!she……

Mrs. Yin burned a stick of incense in front of the Buddha before turning around: "You're back?"

Yin Fengxiang replied: "Yes."

Mrs. Yin sighed: "I don't even come to see my mother first when I come back."

Yin Fengxiang knew that his whereabouts back to the south of the Yangtze River had already been spread by people in the rivers and lakes, so both Cheng Fei and his mother got the news. "Huyun Temple is crowded with people during the day, so it's quieter at night."

Mrs. Yin looked at him, her tone was light: "You mean, you can't see anyone?"

When Yin Qingyu heard her questioning so harshly, she couldn't help looking at Yin Fengxiang worriedly.

Yin Fengxiang still looked at Mrs. Yin, and said calmly: "Mother is thinking too much. It's just that I don't like to be disturbed."

"Excuse me? Why did you never say you were afraid of being disturbed when there were so many guests in the village?"

"Mother used to be the same, but now she sends her servants to live here alone, isn't it just for peace." Yin Fengxiang was still peaceful.

Mrs. Yin took two steps forward and stared at him: "Do you know why I live here?"

Yin Fengxiang didn't make a sound.

"Because I want to ask the Buddha," her voice suddenly rose, "What evil did I do in my previous life to give birth to a rebellious son who is not as good as a beast!"

"Ma'am!" She said it so harshly that Yin Qingyu couldn't help but speak.

"Shut up!" Mrs. Yin turned to him, "Your mother deceived the owner of the estate back then, and now you deceive my son. You are both shameless!"

Yin Qingyu's face flushed immediately, she trembled slightly, feeling ashamed and angry.

"Mother!" Yin Fengxiang said coldly, "What happened back then was obviously the fault of my father, how can I slander others!"

"Presumptuous!" Mrs. Yin scolded, "As a son of man, how dare you judge your old father so unfilially, how is it different from a beast?"

"Mother knows best what happened back then. Everyone knows if there is any fault or whose fault it is." Yin Fengxiang said, "Why deceive yourself and others?"

Mrs. Yin's face darkened, she paused for a long time, and raised her eyebrows: "People are not sages, so no one can do anything wrong... Even if your father is impulsive, he always knows how to turn back when he is lost; and you..."

"I'm different from him." Yin Fengxiang turned around and took Yin Qingyu's hand, and said softly, "Brother, I'm talking to my mother alone, you wait for me."

Yin Qingyu looked at him with concern, then gently withdrew her hand and walked out the door.

Yin Fengxiang watched him leave the small hall before walking over and closing the door.

Seeing their situation, Madam Yin's face turned ashen, and she sneered: "Your mother is blind, but she didn't realize that you have made it this far... Is it since you insisted on moving to live with him? Or earlier?"

"Mother don't need to be upset, and don't care about the time."

Seeing him understatement, Mrs. Yin was even angrier. "You have to have a certain degree of obsession with ghosts. The more you fall into it, the deeper you get into it. Are you willing to lose all your family fortune and ruin your reputation?"

Yin Fengxiang said: "Mother just wanted me to come back when she transferred the villa."

Madam Yin stared at him. "Since you know my painstaking efforts, why do you want me to be disappointed?" Seventy-eight out of ten shops under the name of Fenghua Villa cannot be disposed of by the owner himself. Even if the villa is given away, it will not damage Yin Fengxiang's foundation.Take another step back, that is, give away all the family business. This Nizi has enough skills and a wide network of contacts, so it is not too difficult to start from scratch.

She let out a long sigh: "Now that you have full wings, you want to do whatever you want. Since you were young, how have your father and I treated you? Have you ever been missing you? You are so disobedient and unfilial, betraying your parents, Do you really want to learn to be like a beast?"

Yin Fengxiang lowered his eyes: "Mother said I was not filial, I dare not argue. But since childhood, father and mother only taught me to stand out and shine, have you ever cared about other things? Fenghua Villa is known as a decent family, punishing evil and promoting good, Why did you confuse black and white on father's mistakes? Mother wants me to abide by filial piety now, why did she insist on alienating me from my elder brother back then, without any regard for brotherhood?"

"It's all for the overall situation, for you!" Mrs. Yin's face was very ugly.

"For me?" Yin Fengxiang smiled slightly, "What do I want, has mother ever thought about it?"

Madam Yin was taken aback.

"I can't say no to what you want me to do, otherwise I will lose my status as the owner of the young villa and lose the face of Fenghua Villa... It has always been like this. Even my marriage, mother only looks at Ling Wei Wei and Su Yueer's family background, talent and appearance, weighed whether they could make the family look good, but once asked me if I liked it or not. Mother, what I want is the same to you, it is not worth mentioning at all! "

"...Wealth and fame, what else a man wants, you should be satisfied!" Mrs. Yin finished speaking sharply, paused, and eased her tone, "You don't like the girl we have given you, you can choose another girl. Now, why bother to piss me off like this?"

Yin Fengxiang said: "I have already picked another one, so tell mother now."

"You!" Mrs. Yin's chest rose and fell a few times, she barely held back, and looked at him, "...Is it true that we control you too strictly, and you don't have a woman by your side, so that's why you went astray?" In order to prevent Qiu Chang The incident happened again, and the villa strictly forbids the maidservant to have an affair with the young master, and Yin Fengxiang is not allowed to develop a romantic habit and make another scandal.Now it seems that it will be overkill?If you marry him one or two concubines first, and arrange a few maidservants, maybe he will know the benefits of women...

Yin Fengxiang laughed: "Mom, there are no women around me, so there are men?"

"Then you..." Mrs. Yin frowned heavily, after a moment of silence, she asked in a deep voice, "What's so good about him?"

Yin Fengxiang said: "What's wrong?"

"Of course it is..." There are too many, he is born, looks, literary, talented and martial arts, and he is still a man!Suddenly Mrs. Yin stopped and stared at him, with a trace of helplessness on her face, she sighed, "If you insist on looking at me, I can only treat you like a demon, what else do you say?"

She took two steps with a gloomy expression, "In this way, the girl of the right family will not be able to become a girl." A prestigious family in the Jianghu must not tolerate it. "You marry a submissive and obedient woman from a low family background. As for you and... I can't see you." Her beautiful brows frowned in disgust.

Yin Fengxiang said: "Since your family background is not high, you can't talk about face. If you still disappoint your mother, why do you want to marry?"

"Of course it's for the succession!" Mrs. Yin's eyes almost flared up, "You don't have any sense of shame, why do you want the Yin family to be a successor?"

Yin Fengxiang sighed softly. "I'm thinking for my mother," he looked at Mrs. Yin, "I'm afraid that if I give birth to a rebellious son like me, I will make my mother angry again in the future."

The air froze immediately.

"Good! Good..." Mrs. Yin nodded repeatedly, said a few good words, and pointed at him: "Yin Fengxiang! You speak well!... Do you think that no one can ask for family law if your father is not here? ?” Her eyes sharpened.

Yin Fengxiang watched as she took out a bunch of black whips, made of specially made cowhide, with silver inlaid handles, and the whips made a dull sound as they passed through the air.

"Your Majesty!"

Yin Fengxiang knelt down silently, his expression unchanged.

Following the rules, he took off his coat calmly and put it aside.

"Do you know what's wrong?" Mrs. Yin took a step forward and asked sternly.

"It's the child's fault, but it's up to the mother to decide." Yin Fengxiang said lightly.

Mrs. Yin was so angry that she swung the whip hard!

With a sound of "shua", a bright red welt appeared on Yin Fengxiang's back, about two fingers wide, running from his shoulder to his spine.Blood droplets gradually seeped out of the skin.

"Shua!" Another blow, because the force was too strong, after the whip passed through the body, it knocked down a porcelain pot that was about a foot long, and smashed it to the ground.

"Shua Shua Shua Shua!" Madam Yin saw that he did not dodge or dodge, and said nothing, she was furious in her heart, and she whipped several times without mercy.

Immediately, Yin Fengxiang's body was criss-crossed, and his skin was ripped apart.

In addition to the smell of incense ash from burning incense, there was also a faint smell of blood in the Buddhist hall.

This rebel!What is the evil?If I had known that he would do such a thing, I might as well strangle him to death after birth, wasting so many years of painstaking efforts!

The more Mrs. Yin thought about it, the more her eyes turned red, and the attack became even more resentful and angry, and she tried her best.

Yin Fengxiang still knelt down with his eyes down, motionless, letting the whip roar.

……

Finally, Mrs. Yin was too tired to lift her hands, her temples were disheveled, she sat down on the chair and gasped for breath.She stared at Yin Fengxiang, but she didn't have the strength to scold her.

Yin Fengxiang couldn't bear to see him anymore.He stood up slowly, and put on the clothes one by one calmly until they were all in order.

"When will Mom figure it out, I'll pick you up again." After leaving these words, he turned around and opened the door to go out.

Outside the hall, Yin Qingyu was waiting for him on the porch.Seeing him coming out, she quickly walked towards him and said softly, "Feng Xiang."

Yin Fengxiang smiled slightly and took his hand.

Yin Qingyu originally wanted to ask each other a few words, but thought that Mrs. Yin was very angry, her words must be unpleasant, and there might have been an argument, Feng Xiang felt uncomfortable, so she just sighed secretly, held his hand, and didn't say anything.

Facing the relationship between parents and parents in this matter, there must be a lot of pressure.

Yin Fengxiang suddenly asked: "Brother, if mother disagrees, will you still be with me?"

Although it was expected, Yin Qingyu's heart sank secretly.

Seeing that he didn't answer immediately, Yin Fengxiang asked again: "If she wants you to go, will you go?"

Yin Qingyu shook her head slowly.

"Don't know?" Yin Fengxiang looked at him.

Yin Qingyu said softly: "...don't go."

He didn't see Yin Fengxiang's expression, because he lowered his eyes, his cheeks became hot quickly - as soon as he said this, he became a thick-skinned person who refused to leave, it was almost...

Embarrassed, he added in a low voice, "Unless...you let me go..."

"Wrong!" Yin Fengxiang hugged him and said softly, "Even if I tell you, you can't leave. If one day you say something angry and want to find you again, I will suffer in the end."

Yin Qingyu couldn't help laughing, and broke away from his arms again.After all, it is an important place of Buddhism, so what does it mean to hug and hug?

Raising his eyes inadvertently, he saw a thin layer of water on his forehead through the light in the corridor. "Are you sweating?" It's such a cold day, and the night is heavy with dew, how can you sweat?

Gently wiped it off for him, Yin Qingyu frowned: "...Is there something uncomfortable?"

"Being scolded by my mother will definitely not be comfortable," Yin Fengxiang sighed, "Brother, please comfort me."

Yin Qingyu nodded, and was about to speak softly, when she caught sight of his shining eyes with a smile on her face, for no reason, her hot face suddenly became hotter, and said vaguely: "It's so late, hurry back."
