It gets darker.
The sun is nearly fifteen, and the moon is nearly full.
The circle is also in another house.
From Shengdaofang in Leyouyuan to Suzhai in Jinggongfang, directly south and north across Xinchangfang, it would take less than a stick of incense to travel on weekdays, and it took nearly two quarters of an hour to walk in the middle of the night.
This is a very subtle feeling. I dare not face Su Liubai, just like when I mistook Su Liubai for Zhuang Yuan. From that day on, it is difficult to convince myself to face Su Liubai. .
Although he was upright and courageous, it was not a man's behavior to shrink his head and show off his tail. However, it was precisely because of this that he felt that he had lost his temper after drinking and was too sorry for this girl. His pride was at work, so he didn't dare to do it. Have the nerve to face it.
Now, the reason why I feel like this again is because I feel more guilty and self-blame.
Whether it was Su Liuyin's mysterious death at noon or the Su family's massacre in the evening, Ye San Geng asked himself that he was more negligent. From the time when Su Liu Bai came to ask Ye Hao You for help, Ye Hao You must have been caring, but Ye San Geng did not He had never taken it seriously, only treating it as a disaster caused by the conflict between Liangwei and Mo Ying's interests. Unexpectedly, he got into trouble.
In the middle of the night, I began to regret it.
If Su Liuyin had been brought out directly last night, if he had intervened with force from the beginning, if...
But the comings and goings are all fleeting, and the fleeting moment is fleeting. How can there be so many what-ifs?
He knew that the one above him was angry about the second young lady of the Ye family these days, but because of his intimidating status, Jingzhao Prefecture Yin Gaozhao, who was extremely smooth in dealing with people, had not yet confirmed the arrest document on his desk. Before it takes effect, one still has to maintain the original awe and humility.
You can have official authority, but you must also distinguish who you are dealing with.
The governor of Jingzhao, who is in charge of millions of people in the Gyeonggi region, can still figure it out.
Therefore, Gao Zhao immediately ordered his subordinates to requisition a nearby private house, just to let the second young lady of the Ye family, who also had no official position but was definitely more powerful than the feudal official, have a good rest. He, a fourth-grade Beijing official, had lost his status and face in front of outsiders.
But just after sending away Ye Xiayou, he saw Ye Xiayou coming again in the middle of the night.
Of course Gao Zhao knew what the Third Young Master had done. Just now, every word and word spoken by the two siblings was directed at Liangwei. As for what they were going to do, they knew it tacitly. Seeing him coming back now, Gao Zhao naturally wanted to go over and inquire. It would be best to use some extraordinary means to get some results, at least it would save himself a lot of trouble.
It's just that they haven't passed it yet, they just looked at each other, who knows what kind of look it was, which made this high-ranking fourth-grade official feel fearful, so how could he dare to step forward?
He was planning to let Yue Qingfeng come over so that he wouldn't get into trouble at this time.
Feeling somewhat conflicted in his heart, he finally walked into the private house in the middle of the night, and was actually slightly relieved when he saw Su Liubai who was still in a coma.
He was afraid that she would wake up and he wouldn't know what to say. First, he had lost his temper after drinking, and now his carelessness had indirectly caused such a tragic situation. In the middle of the night, he no longer knew how to face this girl.
But she is also afraid that she will not wake up, and her loved ones will leave one after another. This is the greatest tragedy in the world. No matter how mature her mind is, it may be difficult to cope with this great change. If she does not wake up, her mind, energy, and consciousness will not be able to survive. It will be a disaster. It is difficult to save a person. Whether he is alive or dead depends on his breath. He is like a walking corpse, which makes people feel sad.
Ye Xiayou just looked at Su Liubai who was lying unconscious on the bed but still frowning, for fear of missing any sign of waking up.
In the middle of the night, he stepped forward to feel his pulse. It was obvious that his heart rate was normal and his qi movement was also regular. However, if he did not wake up, it was enough to show that his spirit was severely damaged. The third watch in the night could only help him to continue his qi movement and prevent him from having a sudden crisis. She was so sad and depressed that her vitality was damaged, but no external force could help her get better. Her heart disease was difficult to cure, and she could only get through it on her own.
Only then did he notice that Ye Xiayou, who had returned in the middle of the night, raised his head slightly, and the anger flashed in his eyes. Apparently, whether it was Su Liubai or the Su family, this sentence had scared the fourth-rank official into losing his temper. The second young lady of the Ye family no longer has her usual elegant temperament.
"Aren't you awake yet?" he asked in the middle of the night.
"I just woke up." Ye Xia lowered his head again, "Then he fainted from crying again."
Falling into silence for just one or two breaths in the delicate atmosphere, Ye Xiayou suddenly raised his head, "Mo Ying instigated Su Liuyin, which caused the Su family to suffer unreasonable disasters. Do you think he deserves to die?"
She raised her hand to hold Su Liubai's forehead, which was still frowning even in the coma, and gently smoothed it. Then, facing the new wrinkles, she repeated the gentle movements.
"I have never meddle in your personal affairs, and I don't want to know what you mean about Liu Bai. But you have to know that I quite like this sister."
Ye Xiaer looked up, and saw ripples in a pool of autumn water in his eyes.
"Look, I can't even open my eyebrows now."
She gently caressed the acupuncture points on Su Liubai's head in an attempt to relieve the knot that was really inextricable.
"It's so distressing."
…
After all, she is a woman. Faced with the problems that exist in this family, Su Liubai obviously still can't cope with it.
The Su family, the richest generation in Suzhou and Hangzhou, has lived in Jiangnan Road for generations. For generations, their ancestors have faced the loess and turned their backs to the sky. They have been self-sufficient and happy. The remaining rations are sold to the government for a good price. They are not rich. They are more than enough than those above.
My father was not interested in fame, but he had a business acumen since he was young. By chance, he spotted the scraps of silk and satin that were discarded every day from the Imperial Weaving Bureau. The price was cheaper for the same quality.
My father gritted his teeth and sold his land to start a silk and satin business. With his hard work, unique vision, and hands-on approach to everything, he traveled between Suzhou, Hangzhou, and the capital, picking up high-quality silk fabrics and selling them in the capital.
God rewards hard work, business rewards trust, and industry rewards talents. After years of hard work, I have accumulated a considerable wealth, and immediately purchased a farm and house in the capital. Although this kind of wealth can only be regarded as a small fortune in Beijing where there are so many wealthy businessmen and wealthy families. Although he entered the mainstream, it was considered a temporary success in his hometown.
As the saying goes: If you are poor in the busy city, you will have no one to care about you; if you are rich in the mountains, you will have distant relatives.
Another wise man said: A poor person stands on the crossroads and plays with ten steel hooks, but he cannot hook his relatives' flesh and blood; a rich man plays with swords, guns and sticks in the mountains and forests, but he cannot kill his unrighteous relatives and friends.
In the early years in my hometown, because there was no land and no land, sometimes I would pick up some vegetable leaves for three meals a day. At that time, my newly born brother couldn't even drink any milk and was crying from hunger. My mother led him They visited their neighbors and relatives, but they never got any decent food. Instead, they were often looked down upon, which was pitiful to think about.
One time, his father borrowed an ox cart from his uncle's house in the same village to haul some cloth. Even though he was young at the time and didn't understand the warmth and coldness of human beings, nor did he know how to get in front of others and behind others, Su Liubai still remembered that irritating face, especially that of his own family. The aunt didn't come out, but her voice could be heard clearly from the back room, "What a coincidence. We are planning to let your elder brother plow the land in a few days."
Even Su Liubai, who was young at the time, understood that there were no rules for plowing in the winter. The loess soil was as frozen as anything, and when you put your hoe down there wouldn't even be a mark on the ground.
Fortunately, God has opened his eyes, and all the hardships have come to an end.
After taking root in the capital, it was really a blessing at the beginning. My mother took care of her husband and raised her children, and kept the house in order. My father was busy with business outside. The family was happy and happy, and there were not so many worries.
Or it could be that my father has a business acumen and a unique vision, and these days he has taken a liking to people from the Western Regions.
But as his younger brother Su Liuyin grew up, he had no worries about food and clothing all year round. In addition, he had suffered a lot in childhood, and his mother was even more doting on him. She would open her mouth and clothes and stretch out her hands when the meal came, and she was used to all the problems of her younger brother, every day. The sticks used by his father after his return were of no avail, and only made his brother, who was not doing his job, even worse.
Apparently, the burden of the Su family began to be placed in Su Liubai's hands unwillingly by his stubborn father.
It was also from then on that Su Liubai became more aware of his father's difficulties.
It’s not just limited to running around every day. He travels to and from Jiangnan, Beijing, and the Western Regions in all weathers. He works hard for such a big business, secretly never letting his family know, and he also has to deal with his hometown. Those relatives and friends.
It seemed that they were owed something from a previous life. The neighbors in my hometown who wanted to draw a clear line with their family began to visit frequently. Those who were related to each other wanted to bring out their family trees and get the two families related. The Su family, who already had a certain amount of financial resources, helped.
In the past few years, my father has also been kind-hearted and has helped many fellow villagers settle in the capital. But as the old saying goes, you can't feed a dog too much and you can't treat people too well. Meat is only half as good as others, and people are divided into three, six, and nine grades. There are always some who are Feed the unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.
There are a few scoundrels who have nothing to do all day long and rely entirely on the Su family for financial support. Every month, the accountant pays a certain amount of money to these idle relatives. They are completely parasitic on the Su family.
This was something Su Liubai didn't expect.
On this day, the uncle led his aunt to the accounting office to pay the monthly share. They happened to meet Su Liubai who was doing the accounting. Now the aunt had something to say. She opened her mouth and shut up about what she had done to the Su family. s help.
The nonsense comes out of your mouth.
He said that it was because he felt sorry for Liu Yin's child that he had no milk and that he would rather starve his own child than to let Liu Yin feed him; that it was unpleasant to see the Su family brothers running back and forth, and that he was forced to farm cattle for his own family. Send him as a substitute; and everything else is done by neighbors. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. No matter how bad the times were at that time, half of the noodles made by the family were given to the Su family.
His sharp teeth and sharp mouth confuse right and wrong, making people angry.
The outspoken Su Liubai couldn't stand it, but he had a good argument with this shameless woman.
Thanks to Father Su's role as peacemaker, he quickly kicked his daughter out and calmed down the war between women.
Naturally, Su Liubai was so angry that he didn't go back to Bai's house. He went out to relax, and by some strange combination of circumstances, he picked up the drunken man in the middle of the night.
That was the first time that Su Liubai had close contact with a man other than his brother and father. He was held by this strange man who was actually not a stranger at all. Even though he heard him gently calling another woman's name, he also heard his eloquent words. When I miss you deeply, I naturally feel the depression hidden deep in my heart.
However, there was an indescribable connection between them. Su Liubai was not fed up with the man's obscene actions, but he was very shy and a bit disgusted. He was envious of the woman named Zhuang Yuan from the bottom of his heart.
Such a charming scene was naturally short-lived. It was the third watch of the night, and the first meeting of the two disheveled people in the carriage was naturally not the end, but the beginning.
Naturally, there was a discussion that had been abuzz in the capital for a long time. The girl from the Su family took the initiative to go to Panshan to give her birth date and wanted to marry into Panshan using several silk and satin shops of the Su family as a dowry.
From then on, Ye San, who was already blaming himself and feeling guilty, did not dare to meet this girl.
Naturally, he understood that Ye San was hiding from him intentionally. Su Liubai didn't take it seriously and went up to Panshan Mountain without any care. However, no one thought that these two people would miss each other by mistake every time. It's quite interesting to hide alone.
…
As early as the beginning, my sister had inquired about this family in private, and found out that she was not a girl who wanted to be rich and wanted to get involved with wealthy families like others. In fact, in private, the two women had a lot of contacts.
His sister's words aroused his thoughts. Ye Sangen raised his hand and squeezed his sister's shoulder, but in the end he turned around and left without saying a word.
The two turned their backs, but both were speechless.
I didn't see my younger brother raising his hands to cover his chest, but I could hear his younger brother whispering softly.
"It hurts."
