When he arrived at the courtyard, Hua Zhentian was filled with a bellyful of gloominess. When the few servants who were cleaning the courtyard saw their master coming out with a dark expression, their hearts immediately skipped a beat. They lowered their heads and continued their work obediently. They did not even dare to breathe loudly.
"Ah San, come here!!" Hua Zhentian's eyes widened as he gave out a loud roar. His roar shook the entire Hua family for a few times.
The servant called 'Ah San' was so frightened that he almost had a heart attack. He hastily stabilized his heartbeat and walked forward hastily. He lowered his head and said, "Master, do you have any orders?"
"Get lost!!"
Ah San was too close to him. He almost fainted from the shock. He nodded as if he was granted amnesty, "Ah … yes, yes, I'll get lost right away." After he finished, he fled in a hurry. His ears buzzed for a long time.
When Hua Zhentian vented his anger, he would usually find someone to shout at without thinking. He would not hurt them. After Ah San left, Hua Zhentian blew his beard and glared. He pointed to the sky and roared, "Ye Wuchen you goddamn little bastard. You actually died just like that. I must have been blind to betroth my daughter to you! If you die, you die. Look at what you've done to my daughter! If I were to go to hell one day, I'll skin you, break your bones, mince you and feed you to the tortoises. I'll make you unable to reincarnate forever … Ah! Ye Nu you old man. Let's see what kind of grandson you'll give birth to. I, Hua Zhentian, am not done with you. Your Yeh family's eight generations of ancestors are not good people … "
After cursing Ye Wuchen's eight generations of ancestors, Hua Zhentian still did not feel any better. He kicked the ground heavily and prepared to go to the Yeh family to vent his anger. However, before he could leave, the main door was pushed open. A middle-aged lady walked in. It was Wang Wenshu. At this moment, her face was gloomy and slightly pale.
When Hua Zhentian saw her, the anger in his stomach surged. He took a few steps forward and roared, "You still have the cheek to come here! It's fine if your son is dead. Look at what you've done to my daughter … "
As he got closer, Wang Wenshu's tears that had not dried on her face were reflected in his eyes. Hua Zhentian could not finish his sentence. The one who died was her only son, the only descendant of the Yeh family. The pain and pain in her heart was many times heavier than his. He actually scolded her because of his daughter. He was rubbing salt on someone's wound … Hua Zhentian was instantly filled with remorse. He wanted to slap himself.
However, he could not put down his pride and apologize. He turned his face away and scoffed coldly, "I'm going to talk to Ye Wei."
"Mother …" The room door was opened. A mournful call was heard. The haggard Hua Shuirou ran out with tears all the way. He threw himself into Wang Wenshu's arms and cried bitterly. The tears that had been suppressed for too long gushed out. In the blink of an eye, a large patch of Wang Wenshu's clothes was soaked.
"My good daughter …" Hua Zhentian reached out his hand subconsciously. His daughter's appearance and crying bitterly made him feel slightly relieved. However, it also made him feel even more bitter.
"… You're still calling me mother?" Wang Wenshu could not control the tears that stained her cheeks again. She caressed her back and asked in a trembling voice. This time, she personally came to the Hua family to visit Hua Shuirou. This call of hers made her have mixed feelings.
"You are my mother … Mother said that as long as you wear the bracelet, you will be the daughter-in-law of the Yeh family. Shui Rou is already my husband's wife. She will always be the daughter-in-law of the Yeh family. When my husband is gone … Shui Rou will replace my husband to take care of father, mother, and grandfather for a lifetime … boohoo … "
Hua Zhentian turned around. His chest and nose felt sour. He silently said, "Silly daughter … Silly daughter!"
Hua Shuirou's words were like a gentle breeze that comforted the wounds in Wang Wenshu's heart. It made her feel touched and sour at the same time. She wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief and said, "Good girl … Chen Er has a female confidante like you. It's really his blessing in life. But … you and Chen Er haven't become husband and wife yet. You are only sixteen years old this year. How can we ruin your life like this? You still have a long way to go. Don't ruin yourself … "
"No! No … Mother, don't say it … "Hua Shuirou, who had always been delicate, interrupted her anxiously. She said with the firmest eyes and the firmest voice," I will only belong to my husband in my life. Even if mother drives me away, I will always be the daughter-in-law of the Yeh family. I will live as a member of the Yeh family and die as a ghost of the Yeh family. I will never go against my words! "
Every word and every word contained the girl's most infatuated and foolish love for Ye Wuchen. There were too many relationships in the world that could easily collapse under the impact of interests. And there were even fewer people who could be faithful to their love until death. Under Hua Shuirou's gentle and docile appearance, there was her own passion and stubbornness. Wang Wenshu's heart surged with all sorts of emotions. She hugged her tightly and said sorrowfully, "Rou 'er, it has been hard on you … The heavens took away my son and gave me such a wonderful daughter-in-law. Chen Er's soul in heaven must have no regrets …"
Hua Zhentian turned around and sighed. "It is the Yeh family's fortune to have my daughter. Since my daughter is like this … then I will acknowledge you as my in-laws. I only hope that the Yeh family will treat my daughter well in the future. Sigh … in-law, you know how impatient I am. Don't take what I just said to heart. If there is anyone in this world who is worthy of my daughter, the only one who can catch my eye is that boy of yours. It's a pity that the heavens are jealous of his talent … Sigh, my condolences. I will go and find Brother Ye for a drink. "
He shook his head and turned to leave, giving the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law space to talk. After a few steps, he turned back and said, "My daughter hasn't eaten since yesterday. In-law, why don't you stay and have lunch with her?"
With that, he stepped out of the door. At a time like this, what was more appropriate than drinking?
Wang Wenshu took Hua Shuirou's hand and wiped away her tears as she said, "Good child, you must be starving. If you lose weight, Chen Er's heart will ache when she sees you … I haven't had lunch yet, so why don't you let me have a taste of your cooking? In the past, Chen Er always praised your cooking as unparalleled in the world. Even the imperial chefs in the palace had to step aside. "
At the mention of Chen Er, the tears that she had just wiped away flowed out uncontrollably again. Ye Wuchen's death had shocked too many people, and it had also harmed too many people.
"Mm," Hua Shuirou replied softly. The two of them walked to the kitchen together.
On the other hand.
"Get out! All of you, get out! Are you all here to laugh at this Young Master! Get out!! "
Ever since Lin Xu's right leg had been crippled by Ye Wuchen, he had been lying in bed half dead. His temper had become even more irritable, and most of the servants did not dare to go near him. He had once been insufferably arrogant, and under the protection of his family, he could do whatever he wanted in Sky Dragon City. No one dared to provoke him. He had been so arrogant and carefree. But now, he had become a cripple who could not even walk. How could he not go mad?
And his grandfather had personally told him that he had only himself to blame, and no one else could be blamed for it. There was no way he could take revenge.
The door was pushed open, and Lin Xiao walked in with a helpless look on his face, followed by Imperial Physician Li. Seeing that it was Lin Xiao, Lin Xu restrained himself and called out, "Big Brother." Although Lin Xu was arrogant and caused harm everywhere, he was still in awe of Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao nodded in acknowledgment and stepped aside to make way for Imperial Physician Li: "Lord Li, please."
Imperial Physician Li stepped forward and began to examine Lin Xu's wound. Not long after, he stood up and said: "The wound has healed and there will be no major problems. But Second Young Master Lin will no longer be able to feel his leg, and he will need to use a cane in the future."
"Is there really no other way?" Lin Xiao asked with a frown.
Imperial Physician Li shook his head and said: "This old official is incompetent ….. If Second Young Master Lin's wound was just a hair's breadth to the left or right, this old official would still have a way. But, this wound has completely severed the tendons in his leg, and this old official is really helpless."
"Then, does Lord Li know of any godly doctor who has a way to cure this?" Lin Xiao asked. His Lin family had already invited all the godly doctors they could, but all of them had said that the tendons and arteries were all severed and damaged, and even gods would not be able to heal them.
Imperial Physician Li thought about it a moment and said: "Originally, there was one person who could definitely ….."
"Who? Tell me quickly, who is he!? "Before Imperial Physician Li could finish, Lin Xu struggled to sit up like a madman and shouted.
Imperial Physician Li looked at him with pity and said: "This old official is talking about the Yeh family's Ye Gongzi. But it's a pity that such a godly young man died so young after cutting off one of the Great Wind Kingdom's arms. What a pity!"
Lin Xu's face instantly darkened, and the muscles on his face twitched ferociously. These days, whenever someone mentioned Ye Wuchen's name in front of him, he would definitely go crazy. This time, if not for the fact that Lin Xiao was beside him, he would also have flown into a rage. Lin Xiao's face also stiffened for a moment. He thought of how Ye Wuchen killed the God of War Feng Zhaoyang in the Great Wind Kingdom and slaughtered thousands of soldiers. Although he died, he still shocked the entire Tianchen Continent, and everyone knew his name. Then he thought of how he was defeated by Ye Wuchen … He sighed more than once. No wonder Ye Wuchen was always so calm when facing him. It turned out that in Ye Wuchen's eyes, he had always been a ridiculously weak ant.
Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Imperial Physician Li suddenly remembered that Lin Xu's leg was crippled by Ye Wuchen. He quickly put away the medicine box and said: "This old official still has things to do, so I won't disturb the two young masters any longer. I'll take my leave now."
Lin Xiao respectfully saw him off to the gate. Coincidentally, Lin Kuang returned from the palace and saw Lin Xiao. He walked over and said: "Xiao 'er, Grandfather has something to say to you."
"Grandfather, please speak." Lin Xiao said respectfully.
"Ye Wuchen is dead. You … What did you see?" Lin Kuang asked.
Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow and said bluntly: "He was very strong, and he hid his strength very well. If he doesn't die, he will surely become a dragon that soars to the skies in the future. "
Lin Kuang shook his head and said unhappily: "That's not the point. No matter how strong he was, he is already dead. Whether he was a dragon or a worm, it no longer matters. What I want to say is … Grandfather can see that you have been in low spirits recently, and you don't want to come into contact with women. It seems that you still can't forget about Hua Zhentian's daughter. "
Lin Xiao's face darkened. He suddenly raised his head and said: "Grandfather, are you saying?"
"That's right." Lin Kuang nodded and said solemnly: "Ye Wuchen is dead, and his relationship with Hua Shuirou is severed. This is a chance bestowed upon you and the Lin family by the heavens. Ever since Ye Wuchen appeared, the Lin family has been suppressed by the Yeh family time and time again. Ye Shuiyao's marriage into Dafeng Kingdom has greatly increased the reputation of the Yeh family. However, in just a few days, Ye Shuiyao has returned, and Ye Wuchen is dead. Let's not talk about the reason for his death, but in short, it can be said that the heavens are on the side of the Lin family. You should know how important the marriage with the Hua family is to the Lin family. Grandfather doesn't want to see you in such a depressed state. Also … "Lin Kuang lowered his voice and said:" This is also the Emperor's wish. Xiao 'er, do you know what you should do? "
Lin Xiao's face was full of excitement. He said with excitement: "I will not disappoint Grandfather."
Lin Kuang waved his hand and continued: "You and Hua Shuirou have been engaged for many years, but Ye Wuchen has only known her for a few days. Do you know why you still lost to him? It's because you are too soft. Some things cannot be too gentlemanly. However, Ye Wuchen is the complete opposite of you. As far as I know, he had climbed over the wall and entered the Hua family that day. Do you understand what I mean? "
Lin Xiao: "I understand."
"Since you understand, then go and make the preparations. It's best if you make a trip to the Hua family today. "Lin Kuang said with confidence. He did not think that someone would be stupid enough to remain chaste for a person who had died and had no official engagement. Although he had to admit that Lin Xiao could not be compared to Ye Wuchen, whose reputation in Tenryū Province was comparable to the God of Swords, there was no young talent in Celestial Dragon City who could surpass Lin Xiao in any aspect. Therefore, without Ye Wuchen, it could be said that Hua Shuirou was a piece of cake.
