Summer seems to have passed slowly, the autumn wind is picking up, and the lotus flowers that bloomed beautifully will eventually fade away.
"Greetings, Madam."
Lian'er glanced at Chu Yan tremblingly, and couldn't help but reach out to touch her slightly bulging belly. She was already four months pregnant, and she didn't know why the young lady asked her to come here this time.
"It's all done. There's no need for the child to stand, just sit down!"
Chu Yan suddenly smiled, very gently, and asked Lian'er to help her sit down.
"Since you were pregnant, Gu Xiao has been by your side all the time. I was really angry at first, but then gradually I seemed to have figured out many things.
You are so well-behaved and obedient, it is normal for him to like you, not to mention that you have always been respectful in front of me. Now that you are so sensible, if I make things difficult for you again, he will probably hate me more and more. "
Chu Yan seemed very different today. She even poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lian'er herself. Compared with the way she used to be sarcastic and scolded, it was really a huge difference.
"Young Madam?"
Lian'er took the tea, her hands were shaking slightly. She really couldn't believe it. When she came here, she was already prepared to be bullied again, but she didn't expect that the young lady actually said these words and said that she knew she was wrong. I won’t embarrass myself anymore.
"You don't have to look at me like this," Chu Yan said with a smile, "Actually, you are also a very pitiful girl. Now I think it would be good to give you a place to stay. You have a child again, and you just need to be safe. When a child is born, you feel confident, and this place will always be your home."
Today's Chu Yan looks really gentle, so gentle that Lian'er doesn't know what to do. The Chu Yan she faced in the past has always been harsh and mean. Today, her attitude toward herself has improved, but she feels uncomfortable. .
"Actually, I feel guilty in my heart. If the young lady has grievances, it is right. But I really don't dare to fight with the young lady for anything. I know that I have a humble status. I just want to have a safe place. Today I am really happy to be understood by the young madam!"
Lian'er cried with joy. She really felt her whole body relaxed a lot. She could clearly see that Chu Yan's eyes were no longer filled with resentment and meanness. In other words, could life really get better in the future?
"Lian'er, what do you mean by guilt? I don't understand."
Chu Yan's hand holding the tea cup suddenly tightened, and she pretended to be confused and asked curiously.
"I will answer whatever the young lady asks. I did deliberately show my helplessness and weakness in front of the young master that day. I really just wanted to have a place to stay.
If I am kicked out, I will have nowhere to go. I don’t want to be sold into the building again. The young master is really a very good person. If the young lady knows her mistakes and can change them, maybe she can reconcile with the young master? "
Lian'er lowered her head and said that she was still a little ashamed when she talked about what happened in the past. It was precisely because she knew that she was guilty that she could only swallow her anger in the face of so much bullying. Instead, she thought that maybe it would be better to let Chu Yan vent her anger?
Now she is finally able to see the moonlight after the clouds clear, and the young lady is finally willing to have a good talk with her!
"Really?" Chu Yanpi smiled, "But the conflict between me and him has reached this level. It has been almost a year. We have not reconciled for so long. If there is really a chance in the future, we can reconcile." Will reconciliation return to the way it was before?”
"Yes, yes!" Lian'er quickly smiled and nodded, "The young master is really a very good person, he is very gentle and caring about me. He has been asking me every day in the past few months since I was pregnant, and I felt sore in my waist for a while. When my back hurts, the young master will personally help me with my shoulders and waist. The young master is really a very soft-hearted person!"
Worried that Chu Yan felt there was no hope, Lian'er chose many examples.
Although I still feel a little sour in my heart, I still hope that the young master and his wife can reconcile.
It's not good for them to continue to be in a stalemate like this. After all, they are a legitimate couple. How can any couple live like this?
"So that's it. It seems that the young master likes your child very much and is looking forward to the birth of this child. I remember that when we first got married, he treated me the same way, but later he became cold for a long time. He also treated me in my room. Never came."
Chu Yan lowered her eyes sadly. Has it been more than a year? It has been so long?
How did she survive so many days and nights? Every night when she went to bed, she always subconsciously touched the bed opposite, but it was always empty. It had been more than a year of loneliness.
"It is precisely because of this that Madam needs to change. Don't argue forcefully with the Young Master every time. Many times Madam just needs to be softer. The Young Master's heart is really soft, even if it is a piece of hard ice. It will slowly melt away!"
Lian'er has been persuading her like this, sincerely hoping that Chu Yan can return to her normal self and stop being angry and punishing others. Doing so will only punish herself.
"How could you think of saying these words to me today? Have you forgotten how I treated you before? Don't you hold any grudge against me at all?"
Chu Yan asked lightly, looking at Lian'er, it seemed that she had undergone many changes in the past year or so.
Although there is still that timid look between the eyebrows, it is much different from when we first met, and the whole person seems to be exuding a soft light. Now that she has a child, she looks really gentle. Incredible, as if he was just like his old self.
Suddenly I thought of what Gu Xiao once said, saying that Chu Yan was very similar to her, always so weak and crying, and her eyes would turn red when she cried, like a rabbit. This seemed to be a long time ago.
"I really know that I feel guilty. I'm sorry for the young madam, so I don't dare to keep it in my heart at all," Lian'er gritted her teeth and shook her head.
"I just hope that the young lady can reconcile with the young master. I heard from my servant that you were so in love with each other before. You shouldn't be like this because of some conflicts."
At this moment, Lian'er sincerely wanted to persuade them to reconcile. She didn't want to always see Chu Yan with such a bitter and resentful look, which would only make everyone have a hard time.
"How do you know what it was like in the past? What did those servants say?"
Chu Yan smiled lightly, as if she had returned to the past. She also wanted to know what it was like in the past. Are those memories true?
"They said that the young master and the young madam were very affectionate in the past, and they were even better than me."
Speaking of this, Lian'er felt a little shy. The young master was so kind to him, so he must have been a thousand times better to the young madam before.
"That's it." Chu Yan's face suddenly turned cold, "So do you think why I called you here today?"
"Young Madam?"
Seeing Chu Yan's expression change so quickly, Lian'er was frightened for a moment, and suddenly felt cold all over, returning to the time when she was in trouble.
"You said that he was very kind to you and caring about you. You also know that this tenderness should have belonged to me in the past. Now you have taken it away forcefully. You said how should I get along with you? Is it difficult for me to get along with you? As close as sisters?”
Chu Yan smiled disdainfully. At this moment, she was really so disdainful, so arrogant, and so condescending.
Sometimes I suddenly understand why Chu Yi always has such a domineering attitude, because it really feels very satisfying to be able to firmly grasp the fears of others in the palm of his hand.
As soon as the smile on his face disappears, the other person will immediately be scared like a chicken, just like Lian'er now, the fear in his eyes is so obvious.
"What's wrong with you? Weren't you fine just now? Weren't you still mumbling so many words? What are you afraid of now?"
Chu Yan's face was very gloomy at the moment, staring at Lian'er's belly, which was already slightly bulging. In a few months, she would give birth to a child. By then, Lian'er and Gu Xiao would be completely married. Inseparable!
"Madam, what did I say wrong?"
Lian'er was so frightened that she trembled, and she had this terrifying look in her eyes. It was really scary.
Could it be that the young lady I met just now was all fake? Didn’t I think she was pretty good just now? Why does she have such a scary look in her eyes?
"You didn't say anything wrong," Chu Yan smiled and shook her head, "Because your existence is a mistake. Just now you said that you stayed because you thought of a way. It turns out that you also know that you are sorry for me. Do you also feel guilty? "
When it came to being angry, Chu Yan couldn't bear it any longer. She was back to the time when she was so emotional, always feeling like she had endless grievances to vent.
"Do you know how much my heart hurts when I hear what you just said, and you still have the nerve to say it in front of me!"
Chu Yan stood up and walked over, took Lian'er's arm and pulled her up.
"You are a bitch. You have just admitted that you used tricks to confuse Gu Xiao and stayed here. If you are kicked out, you will have no one to rely on and nowhere to go, so you can only think about Fazi is pregnant with this child, and will stay here forever after birth, and will always come to love and irritate me!"
"no!"
Lian'er really couldn't stand such threats and shook her head helplessly. One hand was tightly grasped by Chu Yan. It was so tight that she couldn't shake it off. The other hand could only protect her own. abdomen.
I only know that looking at Chu Yan at this moment is really scary.
So everything just said was false? The young lady will never forgive herself, and she still has so much anger.
"I know I was wrong about what happened at the beginning, but I just want a place to stay and don't want to be kicked out again. The young master is a very good person. I just want to stay with him. I don't dare to argue with the madam. , Madam, please let me go!"
Lian'er could only shake her head aggrievedly, feeling that the situation at this moment was very dangerous, and she was afraid that something would really happen to the child. The young lady's mood seemed to be very unstable.
