He didn't understand why God treated him like this. His grandmother died, his father died, and his brother, who was raised as the pillar of the family, also died. When he was fighting in the northwest, the only thing he thought about was that Mingyu was still waiting for him in the capital. If something happened to him, what would happen to the little girl when she was so young
But he didn't expect that when he returned to the capital, Mingyu no longer wanted him.
Watching Mingyu disappear in the crowd, Sima Hong seemed to have lost all his strength. He stood blankly at the entrance of the City God Temple, watching the people coming and going on the street. He did not react when the crowds of people bumped into him. He remembered the Buddhist scriptures his mother often recited: there are eight sufferings in life: birth, aging, sickness, death, separation from loved ones, resentment, great suffering, and failure to obtain what one desires...
Xu Mingye was furious and pulled Mingyu forward quickly. He had long legs and walked fast, which made it hard for Mingyu who was following behind him. She almost jogged all the way, but in the end she couldn't run any more and held on to Xu Mingye tightly, panting and shouting angrily, "Slow down!"
Seeing Xu Mingye's cold gaze turning back, Mingyu smiled awkwardly and changed to a flattering tone, "Brother, walk slower." Her gentleness could squeeze water out of her.
At this time, they had walked to an alley not far from the Xu family. There was no one around. Lixiang watched from afar, not daring to go forward and offend the young master.
Xu Mingye crossed his arms, and calmly looked at Mingyu, who was looking around with a guilty conscience, and said sarcastically: "Oh, you are afraid now? You are very smart!"
"I just went to return the bracelet that the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion gave me. There's nothing else." Mingyu said hesitantly.
Xu Mingye snorted coldly and squinted at Mingyu, "Return the bracelet? It's not a big deal, can't I go? Do you have to go in person? Is he a good person? Who was crying and telling me that he was not a good person in Tianshui? You fled back home from Tianshui like a beggar, have you forgotten? Who did it? Are you soft-hearted because you feel sorry for him? Don't you feel sorry for yourself? Don't forget, you are divorced now, you are not as good as an unmarried girl, who put you in this situation? You are a fool who only knows how to eat and grow meat but not brains! Ah Huang is smarter than you!"
After saying that, Xu Mingye still felt unsatisfied and was very disappointed with Mingyu. He reached out his hand and snapped his fingers hard on Mingyu's smooth forehead.
Mingyu's guilt towards her brother was shattered by Xu Mingye's verbal attack, which was as powerful as the five Saint Seiya fighters. Xu Mingye was a vicious pervert! Mingyu was miserable and furious. Ah Huang was Xu Mingyun's pet dog, but Xu Mingye, this idiot, actually compared Ah Huang's IQ with hers!
Oh, yes, after these two years of mutual ridicule with her, Xu Mingye's skill in insulting others has reached perfection.
"You... you are an idiot! You are worried that I can't get married? I think you should worry about yourself first. Which girl is blind enough to marry you?" Mingyu was extremely angry and shouted angrily. She glared at Xu Mingye and walked forward with her head down. She was really pissed off.
Xu Mingye was stunned for a moment, and seeing that the little girl seemed really angry, he sighed helplessly, hurriedly walked a few steps to catch up, softened his voice, and said: "What? Are you really angry? Didn't I just scold you a few words? No skipping words. He muttered again: "It's all because of your parents that you are spoiled by this temper, lawless, and really hard to please!"
Mingyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Xu Mingye, this arrogant little peacock, was apologizing in such a condescending tone. She sulked and glared at Xu Mingye, saying, "Who would be angry with you, an idiot? You're wasting my time!"
Xu Mingye smiled silently, reached out and took Mingyu's hand, and slowly walked home. He thought all the way. When the autumn examination came, he must make an effort to get to know a few young talents with decent character and serve as candidates for brother-in-law, so as to arrange a husband for Mingyu as soon as possible. Otherwise, his sister was so stupid that she would fall sooner or later.
If he couldn't find the right one... Xu Mingye had some plans in mind. Isn't there Qi Su? He and Qi Su have been friends for so many years and they know each other well. He has never heard that guy say that Lord Qi, like his unreliable grandfather Xu Lin, had arranged a marriage for him. If it doesn't work out, he'll be the one!
Xu Mingye's wishful thinking was well underway. At this moment, Qi Su, who was far away in Lu'an, was studying hard under the guidance of his grandfather. Suddenly, he sneezed loudly, rubbed his nose and muttered, "Who is talking about me?"
Mr. Qi's old face was full of seriousness. "Su'er, you must concentrate on your studies."
Qi Su immediately felt guilty and said seriously, "Grandfather is right. It is my grandson who is wrong."
As soon as Mingyu and Xu Mingye arrived at the door, Dongyuan, who was guarding the door, immediately trotted in and shouted, "Master and Madam, the young master and the young lady are back!"
After entering the house, Mingyu saw his father and mother standing under the eaves, looking at them angrily. Mingyu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that his parents knew about his visit to Sima Hong? But they shouldn't be so angry, right
Xu Changqian asked with a straight face, "Where did you go so early in the morning?"
Xu Mingye glanced at Mingyu and said in a deep voice, "I'm tired of studying, so I asked Mingyu to accompany me for a walk on the street."
Hearing her son's words, Mrs. Xu's expression eased a lot. She said in a gentle voice, "If you want to go out for a walk, you should have told me and your father. The two of them disappeared without saying a word. Your father and I are so worried. It's already this late, and your father hasn't gone to the yamen yet." The side door of their yard had been opened. After asking the Xu family's doorman, they didn't see the two people go out of the main gate. Obviously, they went out through the newly opened side door. No one knew when they went out or where they went. How could they not worry
Xu Mingye's face was filled with guilt, "It's my fault. I made my parents worry."
Xu Changqian snorted and said, "If you want to go out for a walk, just take Dongyuan with you. I heard from your mother that there are kidnappers in the capital, and it's not safe to take Mingyu out."
"Yes, I won't do that again." Xu Mingye admitted his mistake with such sincerity that it was outrageous, but in his heart he was complaining that it was you, the audacious idiot, who ran away by yourself! If I hadn't followed behind, Sima Hong, that shameless kidnapper, would have kidnapped him with a few words!
Mingyu looked at Xu Mingye with great gratitude. Her brother who had betrayed her father was still very reliable at the critical moment. He took the blame first and did it without hesitation. Mingyu secretly made up her mind that as a reward, when Xu Mingye spoke harshly in the future, she would listen attentively and accept everything without saying a word in return.
Mrs. Xu saw that Xu Changqian had almost finished lecturing her, so she quickly tried to smooth things over, saying with a smile, "Alright, alright, it's getting late, you should hurry up and go to the government office, and don't let your superiors scold you. Mingye should also hurry up and go to school, the autumn examination will be in a few months, you have to prepare well."
Seeing Xu Changqian and Xu Mingye walk away, Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was finally over. After Madam Xu returned to her room, she turned around and waved at the door. Lixiang, who was hiding outside the door, jumped in with the box in her arms. The two of them ran back to their rooms like thieves. If Madam Xu saw the wooden box in Lixiang's hand, it would be hard to explain.
Not long after Xu Changqian left, Mrs. Xu also went out to the shop and said that she would not be back at noon, and asked Lixiang or Mother Liu to bring lunch over.
Mingyu had finished her accounts early in the morning and was bored at home, so she volunteered to take food to Madam Xu on behalf of Madam Liu. Madam Liu was worried about the "kidnapping" incident that was spreading all over the capital, but Mingyu smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll take the sedan chair at the door."
The two sedan chair bearers at the door had been soliciting business there all year round. They were a father and son, from the capital, and knew the Xu family well. Mother Liu was relieved and packed the lunch into a food box and gave it to Lixiang to carry.
The sun at noon in April was already quite scorching. Mingyu was sitting in the sedan chair and saw Lixiang sweating profusely as she walked outside the sedan chair carrying a heavy food box. He then stopped the sedan chair and asked Lixiang to bring the food box in and put it next to her.
The group had just walked out of the alley where the Xu Mansion was located, and after taking a few steps, they heard a noisy noise in front of them, mixed with the rapid clatter of horse hooves. The experienced old sedan bearer in front shouted "Not good!" and immediately carried the sedan to the side of the road. Almost at the same time, a carriage rushed over at a very fast speed and passed by Mingyu's sedan.
The wind brought by the carriage blew up the curtains of the sedan chair. Mingyu looked through the window and saw a young man in fancy clothes, no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, waving a whip and galloping on his horse in the front seat of the carriage. He dodged all the obstacles on the road without any danger and laughed happily.
The old sedan bearer wiped the sweat from his forehead, stretched his head to look at the carriage going away, and couldn't help complaining, "Alas, these young masters and young ladies..."
Li Xiang was standing between the sedan chair and the carriage at the time, and she was still frightened. Mingyu leaned over to the window and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay," Rika smiled, her face still a little pale.
On the carriage that was speeding away, Luo Lingxian suddenly knocked on the carriage and shouted, "Lingguan, stop, stop now!"
Luo Lingguan, who was in high spirits, turned around and saw that her second sister looked very serious. She had no choice but to stop the carriage angrily and asked unhappily, "What are you doing?"
Originally, the coachman was driving the carriage, but Luo Lingguan thought the driver was driving too slowly, so he chased him off and drove the carriage himself. He was a rich young man, and this was the first time he did this. He ran very fast on the street, and pedestrians dodged in panic. However, he felt that he was a great horse rider, and he was safe and sound and had a lot of fun.
Luo Lingxian was extremely scared at first in the carriage, but later she gradually found it interesting. It was very exciting to sit in the speeding carriage. She pulled aside the curtain and saw a small blue cloth sedan chair hiding from them on the side of the road. The maid following the sedan chair looked very familiar. When she thought about it carefully, it was the maid she had seen before, the one that Xu Mingyu brought with him, whose name was Xiang. The person sitting in the sedan chair must be Xu Mingyu!
"See that blue cloth sedan? No skipping. Luo Lingxian pointed at the back of the carriage and gritted her teeth, "The one sitting inside is Xu Mingyu who harmed my eldest sister!" (To be continued.
