As the cold winter sun fell, it was almost dark. The fireworks in the other yard were set off, and it was almost over. The night was as dark as ink, and most people had already gone to bed. After all, it was dark early, and every household used dinner early, and there was nothing to do after eating.
A Tao fell asleep, and Run Ge'er lay in the quilt. Chu Sui was worried about A Tao during the day, so he had time to talk to his son alone. He sat in front of the bed for two quarters of an hour. The father and son whispered in a low voice, coaxing Run Ge'er to sleep, and Chu Sui walked out of the inner room.
Wei and Aman were waiting in the yard, waiting to see him off.
The sky was filled with cold stars, and the wind was as cold as a knife. Chu Sui looked up at the sky, and it took him a long time to say to Wei, "Go and rest."
The sound seems to be blown cold by the wind, implying loneliness.
Wei did not think deeply about why Chu Sui was lonely, so he nodded and turned around and walked towards the wing of the mother and her mother.
Chu Sui stood there and waited for Wei to close the door before he signaled Aman to walk out. When he arrived at the front yard, Chu Sui suddenly stopped and asked Aman coldly: "Atao is seriously ill, why don't you report me?" He instructed Aman to report anything here to him.
Aman is 25 years old this year. At the age of seven, he entered the Duke's mansion to be a servant for Chu Sui. He is Chu Sui's most trusted confidant. Wei's gentle and beautiful appearance. Aman deals with Wei every day and gradually becomes in love. He can see the master's thoughts. However, Aman deliberately conceals A Tao's affairs, not because he does not want Wei to inherit the master's affection, but because he is unwilling to disturb Chu Sui's peaceful life, so as not to be suspicious by his second grandmother knows that his master cares about A Tao, and the couple will definitely make a fuss again.
"The second master is busy with social engagements at the end of the year. I am afraid that the second master will not be able to take time to come over, and getting the news will only cause trouble." With his head down, Aman found a reasonable reason.
Chu Sui looked at him and said, "I will report it to me in every detail in the future."
Aman responded respectfully.
It was not early, and Chu Sui walked out the door quickly. Agui stood by the carriage and waited for a long time, carrying a lantern to illuminate the master. After Chu Sui got on the carriage, he rushed to the Duke's Mansion. Fortunately, the curfew began to be lifted last night, otherwise he would definitely encounter investigation on the road when he went back so late.
When I arrived at the Duke's Mansion, it was already late at night.
Chu Sui returned to Xianyun Hall all the way and accidentally found Wan Shu sitting in the main hall waiting for him. Chu Sui frowned and ordered Agui to wait in the yard. He entered the room and looked at Wan Shu and asked, "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Wan Shu sat motionlessly, only her eyes slowly raised, and her eyes fell on Chu Sui's face without any emotion, staring at him quietly, more invisible than the cold wind outside. Chu Sui could see at a glance that Wan Shu was going to get angry. He didn't want to argue with Wan Shu, so he sat next to Wan Shu and said tiredly: "Brother Run wants to watch the fireworks. I'll stay with him for a while, so I'm late to come back."
Wan Shu sneered.
Chu Sui was reluctant to return, so she sent a confidant servant brought from her parents' home to the west of the city to see what was going on. When the servant passed by, he happened to see a few doctors coming out. The servant carefully inquired with people nearby and learned that only Wei's daughter was sick in the other yard. Later, Chu Sui sent someone to set off fireworks in the yard. Brother Run kept shouting excitedly, calling her sister to watch the fireworks.
Who is Run Ge'er's sister?
A Tao?
Now Wan Shu figured it out at once, why did she accept Run Ge'er? Chu Sui suddenly wanted to send Run Ge'er to another courtyard to raise him again. Because Chu Sui had already had sex with Wei and was stumbling with a married woman. A Tao was simply Chu Sui's daughter. Wei's husband was alive, Chu Sui was helpless, and Wei's husband died. Chu Sui bought a house under the guise of Run Ge'er, and legitimately arranged the mother and daughter of Wei.
If it weren't for the biological daughter, why did Chu Sui ask so many famous doctors to treat a wet nurse's daughter?
What did you say to accompany Brother Run? It was obviously just a small life with that little guy from Wei!
"Chu Sui's bastard!"
Thinking of the various grievances she suffered after marrying into the Duke's mansion, thinking of her kneeling in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights to please Chu Sui, and almost ruining her legs. Thinking of her waiting for her husband to come back here, Chu Sui was holding Wei's fireworks there, and maybe she was still in love. Wan Shu could no longer bear it, so she grabbed the tea bowl on the table and smashed it on the ground.
The woman screamed and the broken porcelain exploded instantly drove away Chu Sui's bitter attachment to Wei's family in her heart, and also dispelled the fatigue he felt because he had to deal with Wan Shu.
"Why are you going crazy?" Chu Sui stood up and stared at Wan Shu with a fierce look. He claimed to be a good temper, and Wan Shu was making innocent again and again, and Chu Sui had enough!
Wan Shu smiled angrily and smiled at Chu Sui's angry handsome face, "I'm crazy, then you can explain it to me first. Since you like to raise an outdoor room so much and like to seduce married women, why did you go to my house to propose marriage? You have lived with Dong and Wei, what are you going to marry me!"
As he cursed, tears fell in his eyes.
It is pity for the beauty to cry, but Chu Sui will only get bored when he sees Wan Shu's tears. Dong Yue'er and Run Ge'er recognized him, but what does it mean to seduce a married woman? Looking back at Wan Shu with cold eyes, Chu Sui said in a deep voice: "Whatever you think, I and Wei are innocent..."
"Qingyi? Then how did A Tao come from?" Wan Shu interrupted him crying, pointed out of the door and asked, tilting her neck, looking in question.
Only then did Chu Sui truly understand what Wan Shu meant by "seducing a married woman". This woman actually suspected that A Tao was his flesh and blood?
It's simply unreasonable!
Chu Sui turned around and walked towards the inner room. Without taking two steps, the footsteps of Wan Shu chasing him came from behind. Chu Sui was so angry that he and Wei were framed by Wan Shu. He stopped suddenly, turned around, and explained to Wan Shu for the last time: "I like children, so I am good to A Tao, please stop catching wind and shadow!"
Wan Shu must have sent someone to follow him. He knew that he asked a famous doctor to treat A Tao, but Chu Sui had a clear conscience. Even if Wan Shu personally went to the other courtyard to stop him, he would help A Tao.
"Then tell me, if it wasn't for taking in the Wei mother and mother, why did you send Brother Run out of the mansion? At that time, you said that Brother Run was unhappy with his father because of his mistakes, then you can tell me clearly what mistake did Brother Run make!"
It has been two or three years since Chu Sui’s love between Wei and the Wei family, and Wan Shu can’t find any definite evidence, but Chu Sui sent Run Ge'er out of the mansion, and now he thinks it is strange.
What mistake did Brother Run make?
Thinking of his son being used to make his grandmother's lifespan greatly reduced, and the cause of the whole incident was that he was young and confused, which caused the King of Huainan to target his own family. The guilt and self-blame that he deliberately sealed his heart surged up again. Chu Sui was ashamed of his grandmother and his brother, but at this moment, he had a clear conscience towards Wan Shu.
He didn't marry Wan Shu sincerely, but he tried to be a good husband, but Wan Shu was domineering and difficult to get along with. In the matter of Run Ge'er, he did make Wan Shu wronged, but he didn't know in advance that he had a son outside. Later, he tried his best to make up for Wan Shu. It was Wan Shu who insisted on fighting against Lu Mingyu. First, he encouraged him to deal with Queen Wan and then plotted to murder the child in Lu Mingyu's belly.
Even so, he did not leave Wan Shu and wanted to give her another chance. As a result, Wan Shu actually suspected that he had been secretly mingling with the Wei family, who was married to a wife. What kind of character is he like in Wan Shu's eyes?
There are too many involvements in Run Ge'er's departure from the house, and Chu Sui couldn't tell Wan Shu that Wan Shu was Run Ge'er's legitimate mother. In the future, once Wan Shu wanted to deal with Run Ge'er, as long as she said that Run Ge'er was poisoning to persecute her biological father and great-grandmother, there would be no place for Run Ge'er to stand in the capital.
"Wan Shu, I said the last time that I have never touched Wei's slightest, nor have I ever thought of taking her as a concubine. If you believe it, you believe it. If you don't believe it and cry with me all day long for something that is gone, then I will write paper and leave the book for you immediately, so as not to be wronged here."
Chu Sui looked at Wan Shu calmly and said, his eyes as stagnant as water.
He was tired and had no leisure to prove his innocence to Wan Shu over and over again.
Wan Shu's tears suddenly broke, and she stared at Chu Sui in a daze.
Chu Sui stared at her: "You choose, either believe me or be with Li. If you believe me, don't make trouble again in the future. If you are with Li, I will not say a word of bad things about you. We will have their own relationship from now on, and we will have no relationship."
Wan Shu still looked at him, but she burst into tears again.
How sad she was. Even when she reached this point, she still couldn't bear to part with him.
Chu's entourage got the answer from her tears. He sighed and turned around and said, "Go to bed early."
After saying that, he went in.
Wan Shu stared at the door curtain in dismay, stood blankly for a long time before she walked out step by step. When she walked to the door, she lifted the curtain, and the cold wind blew towards her face, causing pain on her face, and the blood all over her body seemed to have frozen.
Wan Shu looked up and saw the cold stars in the sky, the dark night sky, and no fireworks were seen.
She also wanted Chu Sui to accompany her to watch the fireworks, to be gently hugged by Chu Sui, to have a beautiful and lovely daughter with Chu Sui, and to have Chu Sui's heart with her from now on and never go to other courtyards again. But Chu Sui's heart was hooked by Wei's daughter, and that Wei must be particularly gentle. Wei tied Chu Sui to her side, how could Chu Sui see her such a married wife?
Walking to the corner of the corridor, a gust of wind rolled over without warning, causing the lantern in Zhixia's hand to shake violently. Wan Shu's eyes were attracted by the lanterns. Through the red lantern paper, she saw the candles waving inside. Lanterns, candles...
Wan Shu's eyes lit up again.
On the 15th, every household will hang lanterns. With too many lanterns, it is easy to get out of water. It seems that every year I hear about one or two accidents of water flowing out of the city. So, if there is a fire in the west courtyard of the city during the 15th, isn’t it normal? Even if the Wei family and daughter cannot escape, it will only make people sigh. As long as the fire is natural, Chu Sui cannot find evidence and cannot investigate it in depth.
It was just an exciting idea at first, but when Wan Shu returned to the warm inner room of the burning ground dragon, the idea had become a very comprehensive plan.
"Second grandma?"
The woman sat on the bed and was in a daze. She had just passed by her husband, but now she was actually smiling. Pinqiu came in with foot washing water and shivered at the strange smile on the face of the master.
