Shen Jiayou looked at Che'er, who was sleeping soundly, worriedly.
"Che'er has been taking medicine for several days, why hasn't she healed yet?"
"Maybe the medicine doesn't work that quickly, and since we've been on the road these past few days, Che'er's body will definitely be a little bit overwhelmed!"
Shen Jiayou said distressedly: "I ask Che'er if he is tired, and he always smiles and says he is not. I have never seen a child as sensible as him. He is so young, and I hope he can be more willful! "
"Don't think so much. You only took care of Che'er along the way and didn't even have time to take a good rest. Chou, you must not tire yourself out!"
"The same goes for you. You are responsible for preparing Che'er's medicine. Minglan, thank you very much!"
"Thank you!" Minglan smiled softly: "I also have the obligation to take good care of Che'er!"
Shen Jiayou didn't know about the emotional entanglement between Minglan and Wu Yin. He always believed in people, so he never thought about how much Minglan hated Che'er.
She was indeed the one who prepared those medicines, but Minglan deliberately skipped a few medicinal ingredients. Because of this, Che'er's illness took a long time to get better!
How did Shen Jiayu know this? He looked at Minglan and seriously told him: "After I send you to Yongcheng, I will return to the Western Region. I can no longer take care of you. You must take care of yourself. In addition, the Rong Kingdom is no better than the Western Region." , you still have to live with the Ninth Prince and the others, the royal family is full of intrigues, you must be careful and protect yourself!"
"Thank you!"
Minglan is very grateful to Shen Jiayou. Although they have not known each other for a long time, Jiayou has been doing his best to take care of herself.
"You're welcome, this is what I should do!"
"Are you still brooding over my mother's death?" Minglan asked suddenly.
Shen Jiayou lowered his head, "I hurt her!"
"I said it's not your fault, so you don't have to feel that you owe me anything. In fact, it's me who wants to thank you. Cockroach, why can you be so nice to everyone?" Minglan was really upset. understand.
"I'm not good to everyone. Ran You specifically told me to take good care of you. She saved my life, so I naturally have to agree to her request! Minglan, after I leave, we may not be together in this life. See you later, just forget all the unpleasant things that happened in Yin State, and start your new life in Rong State!"
Ran You?
Minglan's shoulders trembled suddenly.
"You have done all this just for Miss Ran You?"
"Ran You saved my life. Without her, I would have died long ago!"
Minglan's expression was stiff, "Do you like Miss Ran You?"
"I like it, but it's just like it!" Shen Jiayou replied calmly.
"Why?"
"Ran You has her ideals and ambitions. I don't want Ran You to give up her pursuit for anyone. Of course, I also know that Ran You will never do this!"
"But you can come to Rongguo to accompany her!"
Shen Jiayou shook his head, "I also have my life and career. Love is only a part of life, but it is not everything after all. Ran You doesn't want me to give up everything for her. If I really do that, Ran You will definitely look down on me." Mine! To be honest, like her, I don’t like people who only think about love and romance. Everyone is unique, and no one should be someone else’s vassal, right? "
Minglan disagreed, "If you really love someone, he will be all in your mind, and you will even be willing to give everything for him, even your life, so what does it matter?" She looked at Cockroach intently, "If If I were you, I would give up everything in the Western Region and go to Rong Kingdom to find her!"
"But no matter how much I like someone, I can't just care about my likes!"
"What does this mean?" Minglan didn't understand.
"Let's put it this way, if there is a girl who likes me, but I don't like her, and if she always treats me well without any regrets, my first thought may not be to be moved, but to try my best to avoid her, because Sometimes the sacrifice you think may make another person breathless!"
"Why not give her a chance? Maybe one day you will be moved by her and truly willing to accept her feelings!" Minglan insisted.
Shen Jiayou smiled, "It's easy to like someone, but it's also difficult. I know myself well. If I know that someone is good to me because she likes me, but I want to avoid her and avoid contact with her again, Then I’m almost certain that I won’t fall in love with this person!”
"That's almost what you said!"
"Yes, everything is possible, but I am very stubborn, so I will never change my mind easily!"
Minglan is also very stubborn, so she will never let go of someone she recognizes easily.
Shen Jiayou continued: "The same must be true for Ran You. I don't want to put any pressure on her. What's more, I know Ran You. Although she admires the Ninth Prince, she never lets herself get deeply involved in feelings. She will always be in her heart. There is something more important than love. The Ran You I know will never do anything to get someone just because she likes him. Ran You wants to be someone who is on par with the Ninth Prince. They work hard for their dreams together, which is how she likes her. The best interpretation, so naturally I can't lose to them! I don't have big ambitions, but I have to do everything I should do. Only in this way can I get Ran You's respect, and at the same time get my respect for myself. respect!"
"But what's the point of such a liking?"
"Of course it makes sense! Loving someone is a very beautiful thing, so I have to make myself better because of this love. I feel that my love for Ran You has made me a lot better than before. Is this still called Doesn’t it make sense?”
"Then you won't get her either. Cockroach, are you really willing to see her with someone else in her heart or with another man?" Minglan said reluctantly.
"If it were you, what would you do?" Shen Jiayou suddenly asked.
"If it were me, I would never give up," Minglan looked a little crazy, "I would let him know that I can do everything for him, I would let him see my value, and let him understand that only I can truly Worthy of him!”
"What if he asked you to do something against your conscience?"
"If I really like him, then I will do everything for him, because he is worth everything I give!" Minglan said paranoidly.
"But if he likes you equally, he will never be willing to let you do anything that goes against your will!"
"It doesn't matter whether he likes me or not, what matters is that I like him!"
Shen Jiayu sighed, "Is it worth losing yourself for someone who doesn't like you?"
"It's worth it!" Minglan looked directly at Shen Jiayou, her eyes not evading at all.
Shen Jiayou disagreed, but he understood why Minglan had this idea.
She had a pitiful life experience, and it was precisely because she had never been loved since she was a child that she longed to be loved so much.
In order to get the attention of the one she loves, she would rather give it all!
But her love may hurt other innocent people!
"Do you know why I like Ran You so much? In addition to what I just said, there is another very important reason, that is, she respects me! Even if Ran You wants something from me, she will never let me do anything. It goes against the moral principles in my heart! Ran You knows that I like her, but she doesn’t want to take advantage of my feelings! Minglan, I think only such people are worthy of our sincerity!"
Minglan was unmoved. She didn't know that the Ninth Prince was using her, but she was willing to be used by the Ninth Prince.
"You and the person you like should be equal. Don't put yourself down just because you like it, otherwise you won't be truly happy!"
"Thank you for telling me this, but I also have my own persistence!"
Cockroach said he didn't want her to lose herself, but he didn't know that it was because of the Ninth Prince that she found herself again!
"Do you think I'm stubborn?"
"How could it be!" Shen Jiayou said with a smile, "People grow up in different environments. A person who has lacked love and care since childhood will naturally not have the same personality as someone who grew up in an environment full of love!"
"You're right. Most of the time, it's not that people want to be bad, but that they are forced to do so by life!"
Shen Jiayou shook his head and said: "I don't think so. What I mean is that the growing environment will have a great impact on a person's character, but this is by no means a decisive factor, because I believe that a person can choose what kind of path he wants to take. What kind of person do you want to be?"
"That's because you have never suffered or been tortured. Do you think I just want to show off in a brothel? But I can't survive if I don't do this. I have also worked as a slave for others, working hard day and night for them. I worked but was driven away ruthlessly in the end. If I didn't go to a brothel, where else could I go?" Minglan complained.
"I don't think brothel girls deserve to be looked down upon. I even think there are many good girls in brothels who are truly affectionate and righteous! No matter where you are, you can actually stick to the beauty of your heart!"
Minglan disagreed, "That's just what you think. You haven't experienced it personally, let alone been stabbed in the back. Of course you will think that the world is beautiful!"
"I admit that there are bad people in this world, and there are a lot of them, but I also know that there are good people in this world, and there are a lot of them! Do you dare to say that there is no one in Lichun Court who treats you sincerely?"
Minglan thought of Wu Yin, but she was unwilling to admit it.
Shen Jiayou took the opportunity to persuade: "When I was studying in my youth, I really admired those ambitious people who did not change their ambitions even if they fell into the abyss. Among them were people from poor backgrounds. Many people looked down upon them, but they relied on their self-respect and self-love. Their efforts have won the respect of the world. Even if they are framed, attacked by powerful people, and the world does not understand them, they must stick to the beauty in their hearts and not let themselves join in the evil, let alone let their conscience be stained with dust! It is really hard, tiring and difficult for them, But they have never regretted their choice! If they are lucky enough to be reused by the court, they will be obliged to do more practical and good things that are truly beneficial to the country and the people; if they really cannot realize their ambitions, they can at least make themselves never Change! Minglan, we can’t control our origins, but we can decide what kind of person we are!”
