Meng Hanyi left by himself.
After the old master was buried, he disappeared. The people in the house only knew that Meng Hanyi had approached Chu Yu, and the two stayed alone in the room for an hour. After that, Meng Hanyi disappeared.
Qin Zheng turned Shangjing upside down like crazy, wishing he could dig three feet into the ground. But after all, Meng Hanyi was not found, only heard from the city gate guard that he seemed to have left the city.
Meng Hanyi's departure seemed to be the last straw that crushed Qin Zheng, and plunged him into the abyss of irreversibility.
Qin Zheng used countless means, even pointing his sword at Chu Yu's neck, to force Meng Hanyi to ask why he left.
Without batting an eye, Chu Yu wrote lightly, "What did Lord Hou ask him to stay for? To be a concubine? Why did Lord Hou leave? Shouldn't Lord Hou be very clear about it?"
Chu Yu's words can always crush the last bit of self-deception in people's hearts, and drag the darkness and luck hidden in the deepest place to the broad daylight, making people unable to hide.
Qin Zheng understood that the moment he agreed to marry Chu Yu, he was doomed not to have Meng Hanyi completely.
Meng Hanyi was like an asparagus, fragile and proud. He is sensitive to his own background, and every step he takes with Qin Zheng is trembling, worried, and afraid... So this thin ice finally shattered at the moment Chu Yu arrived, and his departure was the last dignity of the three of them. .
It's just that Qin Zheng was unwilling to accept this result, nor would he accept his fate.
For the past five years, Qin Zheng has refused to accept his fate every day. Flower streets and willow alleys, indulge in sensuality, this is his silent accusation against the little bitch of fate.
Qin Zheng can choose to indulge, but Chu Yu can't.
In the past five years, Chu Yu has never forgotten the oath that the old Hou Ye made in front of him...
Thinking of the past, Chu Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, suppressing the struggle in his heart, and then opened his eyes.
Just as he was about to go to Qin Zheng's place to find Zhen'er, another person came to report: "Second Master, the old lady's side is not good."
Chu Yu straightened up and said as usual, "What's the matter this time?"
The servant was full of embarrassment: "The old lady suddenly smashed the bowl and chopsticks halfway through the meal, even crying and shouting that life is meaningless, and she insisted on begging for a three-foot white silk..."
Chu Yu let out a long breath, and said coldly, "Go to the warehouse to pick up ten feet of plain brocade, and send it to Xiyuan."
The old lady of the Hou Mansion, Mrs. Sun, is the mother of Qin Zheng and Qin Yao, and the first wife of the old Hou Ye.
When the old Hou Ye was fighting in the northwest, he accidentally entered the siege and escaped from the siege. He was seriously injured and passed out next to a small village. He was picked up by Sun Shi, a village girl who was still not out of the court at that time.
According to Lao Hou Ye's recollection, when he woke up in a daze, Mrs. Sun was having a fight with his family.
A small household in a small village picked up a strange person and came back. The family was naturally unwilling, but Mrs. Sun blocked the door of the room with a bit of vigor, pinching his waist and said: "Today, I will leave the word to my brother and sister-in-law. As long as I have a bite to eat, he can’t starve to death, and there is absolutely no reason to throw away the rescued people!”
The light outside the door seemed to have gilded Sun's petite figure, and the thick flower scarf on her head was more beautiful than any brocade, jade and silk in the eyes of the downcast general...
The general married a village woman and never had any concubines in his life. Even in death, the old Hou Ye is most worried about this woman who has a hot personality, does not know etiquette, but treats him wholeheartedly...
Sun's family background is too low, even if she becomes the wife of the Hou family, she still can't get rid of the habit of being a small family, so that she is a bit out of place with the high families in Shangjing. She also seemed to know that she had nothing to say to those noble ladies, so she gradually stopped going out.
Before the old Hou Ye was alive, Mrs. Sun still had time to take care of the housework and discipline the two children. Since the old Hou Ye left, Sun seems to have lost his backbone, his whole body has become depressed, and his personality has become more and more irritable.
When Chu Yu arrived in Xiyuan, Mrs. Sun was smashing a Ru kiln porcelain vase to pieces.
"Mother seems to be in good spirits today." Chu Yu walked straight into the house as if she didn't notice the debris at her feet.
The moment Sun saw Chu Yu, her eyes widened immediately, and then she rushed over, making a gesture to grab Chu Yu's collar, but was quickly stopped by a servant beside her.
Mrs. Sun pointed at Chu Yu with trembling fingertips like seeing a ghost: "Ah, the Qin family is doing evil... provoking you, a fox monster, is going to kill the Qin family!"
Chu Yu signaled the servants to press Mrs. Sun firmly on the chair and sit down, and then said: "Mother, don't listen to the old books."
Sun covered her face and cried loudly: "You are the vixen who killed the old man, drove my son crazy, and you are going to kill my daughter..."
Chu Yu couldn't help but sighed: "Mother..."
Sun suddenly stopped crying, and stared straight at Chu Yu: "You want our old Qin family to have no children or grandchildren."
Chu Yu frowned slightly.
Sun pointed at him and said sharply: "Say it! Do you want our old Qin family to die!"
Chu Yu tightened her pale lips and said, "Mother, we have a real child..."
"Shut up!" Sun interrupted him sharply: "What's the use of a worthless girl! That little vixen is here to collect debts just like you!"
Chu Yu's eyes were slightly cold. Zhen'er was his daughter whom he treated like pearls and jade, and no one could bully her: "Even if the Hou's Mansion is down and out, there is still a Marquis. Say less, don't let people see the jokes of the Hou's mansion. Zhener is a daughter of the Hou Ye's legitimate daughter, even you are not allowed to say that."
Unknown where the strength came from, Mrs. Sun broke free from the servant and rushed towards Chu Yu, trying to strangle him to death.
"Second master!" The surrounding maids and servants all gasped.
Chu Yu was extremely tall and in her early twenties, and with a single push, she knocked the crazy Sun to the ground.
Mrs. Sun didn't even stand up, and immediately sat down on the ground, showing the shrew look she had when she was a village girl, patted her thighs and cried, "God doesn't have eyes! If there is no such thing as a good Hou's mansion, it will be gone! This is a trouble. The vixen is really harmful to people! Who will accept the goddamn evildoer!"
There was a set of crying words, and Sun patted his thighs and leaned forward and backward very rhythmically.
Chu Yu smiled angrily, and beckoned someone to bring the ten-foot white silk, and handed it to Mrs. Sun herself: "You want three feet, and I'll give you another seven feet, no thanks."
The head steward felt his heart skip a beat, and wanted to persuade him, but was stopped by Chu Yu's understated look.
Chu Yu was sure that Mrs. Sun didn't want to die. The broken plates and chopsticks on the ground were full of soup, and there was not even a little rice left over. It can be seen that Mrs. Sun is looking for trouble when she is full. If she really doesn't want to live, how can she eat every dish in such a slow manner.
Sure enough, Sun's crying gradually died down, holding the ten-foot white silk, her face turned purple.
Chu Yu knew that Mrs. Sun couldn't continue to make trouble, so she didn't want to say anything. Just as she was about to order her servants to clean up the place, she turned her head and saw Qin Zheng standing outside the door with a livid face...
Qin Zheng was trembling with anger. He heard that something happened to his mother in Xiyuan, so he hurried over, but he saw this scene again. After Chu Yu threatened his sister, he came to force his mother to death. He was only at home for one day, and he saw such things one after another. When he was not at home on weekdays, what kind of life did his mother and sister live under Chu Yu's hands...
Thinking of this, Qin Zheng looked at Chu Yu with fierce eyes, full of murderous intent.
Chu Yu was so angry that she couldn't bear it anymore and kicked over the stool in front of her, unable to maintain any demeanor anymore, she said to Qin Zheng viciously: "I just want to grind your family to death, what?"
In Qin Zheng's impression, Chu Yu seldom gets angry. It's not that Chu Yu has a good temper, but that he is too arrogant. No matter how irritating things are, there is only disdain in his eyes, a sneer on his lips, and his words are always full of sarcasm.
only…
"Chu Yu, you really think that I dare not kill you." Qin Zheng stretched out his hand to grab Chu Yu's neck, his eyes were a little red, and his murderous look was completely different from the usual he who indulged in sensuality. The neck under the hands is warm, slender and fragile, and can be broken with a little force.
Chu Yu smiled. The angry man just now seemed to be just a hallucination of Qin Zheng. In the blink of an eye, he became that proud Second Master Chu again.
"What else is Hou Ye not afraid of? Hou Ye used force with his hands, we will see you in the next life. After Hou Ye strangled me, don't forget to kill the whole courtyard, lest anyone who is not good-looking go to Jingzhao Report the case to Yin. Take advantage of this moment, Lord Hou, hurry up and take your precious old lady and sister to flee to the end of the world. Get a pass card from my waist, and flee from Shangjing to the north. Hiding for ten or eight years, hiding until your old mother’s bones can’t return to her roots, hiding until your sister hates you for ruining her pampered life, hiding until you, Lord Qin, are betrayed and have nothing...cough..."
The sudden heavy hand made Chu Yu cough and cut off his words.
"Chu Yu, did I owe you in my previous life?" Qin Zheng's hands trembled a little.
Chu Yu clasped his wrist, separated his fingers one by one, and smiled like a ghost: "Yes."
When Chu Yu stepped out the door, the sunlight outside was a bit dazzling. He squinted his eyes, but refused to lower his high chin. Perhaps it was because of the tossing and not getting any water in the morning, circles of halos appeared in front of my eyes, and the ground became a little rough...
"Second Master!" The chief steward's voice sounded suddenly.
Chu Yu only felt that his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness.
