The Shangguan Yaohua interrupted, "That's enough! Do some manual labor … I can't believe you can think of that. Are you born to be a servant? Besides, the Prince Fu's household is fighting for power, and the situation is not much better than the palace. Everyone's life is not easy, and they all have to rely on their own strength to stand firm. They only know how to rely on others, and if they can't climb up, they blame the heavens and the earth. This kind of trash can forget about having any future! "
Cheng Jiaxuan sighed. She suddenly felt that the Shangguan Yaohua was still so far away from her, and he was truly growing up. No matter how hard he struggled along the way, he gradually groped his way from the bottom to the first level of the Noble Realm. She, on the other hand, was still the young lady who only knew how to cry. She always thought that as long as she threw a tantrum, others would obediently compromise with her. She had been rebuffed countless times, but this idea was still deeply ingrained in her mind.
A drop of sparkling tear fell from the corner of her eye again. She said, "I'm trash, yes … What if I tell you that I want to do something even more useless? I think that I still love him, and I want to find him. As long as I can be by his side, and see him every day, and let him feel my existence, and occasionally say a few words to me, even if he beats me or scolds me, even if he treats me harshly, I'll accept it. Perhaps this is my fate. I know that as a girl, saying such things is very shameless, but … I really have no choice. I love him! As long as I go against my conscience and tell him that I don't care if his face is ruined … In any case, he won't always use that face to face others. If he looks like how he used to look, I can accept it. So brother, I only ask you, your relationship with him … is so good, can you … "
The Shangguan Yaohua was exasperated at her failure to live up to her expectations. She said, "Shut up. That kind of animal will never learn to respect others. If you want him to take a liking to you, you have to treat him as lowly as trash. He's not like you, idiot. You raise him higher than anything else, and it's like you're a masochist. The tighter you cling to him, the more he ignores you. You can say that you don't care, but for my own sister to be humiliated like this, even I feel ashamed. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it's impossible for the two of you to be together. Actually … if you choose the Tang Yuancheng, I won't object. "
Cheng Jiaxuan was shocked. "Tang … Tang Shaoshi? Brother, what are you talking about? I … I don't have that kind of relationship with him, and I've never had feelings for him. We … we're just ordinary friends … "
Her mind was suddenly in a mess. She remembered that night when the two of them sat across from each other, drinking wine and talking to each other. She had unintentionally fallen asleep on his lap, and he had not moved for the entire night. She had slept on his lap until his legs were sore and numb. The next day, she woke up in a daze. When she saw that Tang Yuancheng had stayed up all night to avoid waking her up, her heart throbbed a little. His gentle eyes seemed to be looking into her heart, and she didn't dare to look straight at him …
However, this memory made her blush unknowingly. She said softly, "Yuancheng is Mr. Xuan Shuang, and he's also my … good friend. He really cares about me and takes care of me. But, why did you suddenly mention him?"
The Shangguan Yaohua said, "Loving and being loved are not the most important things in marriage. When you've really made your choice, you'll understand that couples who can get married are often not the ones who swore to love each other until the end of time and the rocks crumble. Because their love is still too immature, it lacks a lot of things. Many people yearn for everlasting love, but they don't know that love is always better than marriage. With a temper like yours, you seem to be able to endure it on the surface, but you're still a young lady at heart. At the very least, I can tolerate you from a distance. I can also … "He poked her forehead and continued," Understand those strange thoughts in your head. "
Cheng Jiaxuan covered her forehead with both hands and laughed tenderly, "Aiyo, Gege is the worst. You're bullying me!" At the same time, a burst of laughter came from outside the door. Ping Ruoyu leaned against the door frame and smiled as he watched the two of them being intimate. He teased, "Brother and sister, what are you whispering about?"
The Shangguan Yaohua swept a cold glance at him and said, "Don't you know how to knock before entering the room? Who taught you to be so unruly? Look at you now, where do you have the bearing of an official Wangfei? "Cheng Jiaxuan thought," So impressive, as expected of Gege. If it were me, I'm afraid I'd never dare to speak so arrogantly. "
Ping Ruoyu sighed and pretended to be jealous. He said, "You said you wanted to see your sister, so you didn't plan to go back to your room? I thought that since I had nothing to do, I might as well boil a bowl of bird's nest and wait for you to come back. In the end, I left it on the table to cool for half a day and still didn't see you, so I came to take a look. While I was at it, I also brought the bird's nest. Drink it while it's hot. "
The Shangguan Yaohua coldly said, "Just put it down. What's with all this nonsense? You can go back. I won't suddenly divorce you and threaten your Wangfei status. What are you so nervous about? Aren't you coveting Prince Fu's power and influence, that's why you shamelessly insisted on marrying into the family? "
Ping Ruoyu's eyes darkened. With a bitter smile he said, "I'm sorry, husband. I've disturbed you." Cheng Jiaxuan suddenly said, "Hey, you … you're Sister-in-law? I haven't talked to Sister-in-law yet and you're in a hurry to leave. Do you dislike me as your sister? Don't look at Gege's fierce words. He's a person who doesn't mean what he says. That's because he's not good at expressing his feelings. Actually, he's mentioned you to me several times! "The Shangguan Yaohua was dumbstruck. He even forgot to refute.
Ping Ruoyu's smile returned. He said, "That's right. A few days ago when you were lying in bed recuperating, I kept wanting to see you. But the doctors didn't agree. I was also afraid to disturb your rest. Actually, I'm also very curious about you. Ay, but when husband mentioned me, I don't want to hear it. Presumably, he said a lot of bad things about me? "Although she said she didn't want to hear it, she was actually urging Cheng Jiaxuan to quickly say it.
Sure enough, Cheng Jiaxuan understood tacitly. He said, "He didn't! He was full of praise for you! He said you're virtuous and virtuous, with the air of a well-bred young lady. You're also as beautiful as a fairy, so beautiful that the moon outshines the flowers. It's his good fortune to be able to marry you. "
The Shangguan Yaohua anxiously said, "When did I say that? Don't give me … "Before the words" spread rumors "could come out of his mouth, Cheng Jiaxuan pretended to be wronged. He stomped his feet and said," It's true! It's your true thoughts. If you don't say it, how will others know? It's just like how you clearly care about Sister-in-law, but you don't want to express it. Even when I'm passing it on for you, you want to shrink back at the last minute? Didn't you just teach me that as a person, one must have the courage to face oneself? "
Ping Ruoyu listened with a smile. She knew that the Shangguan Yaohua didn't have any love for her, but when she heard these words, she still felt indescribably comfortable. She smiled and said, "Xiao Xuan, you really know how to talk. Ay, I've been curious about your appearance for a long time. My husband often told me that his little sister is lively and cute. Seeing you today, it seems that it's true. I'm afraid I can't compare to my little sister. "
Cheng Jiaxuan turned his head very slowly. His bandaged face appeared in front of her. At first, he used the bandage to cover his face, but when he saw her, his expression changed greatly. He hurriedly turned his head and said angrily, "Gege, you shouldn't have brought Sister-in-law to see me today!"
Ping Ruoyu was confused and said, "What's the difference? Don't tell me that Sister-in-law has to choose an auspicious day to meet each other? "
Cheng Jiaxuan covered his face with his hands and said bashfully, "No, but Sister-in-law is really beautiful, like a fairy from the heavens. My current appearance is so ugly, like the mud under the ground. I'm afraid Sister-in-law will hate me in the future. Even if I don't … always look like this, but … it's said that the first appearance you see will be forever imprinted in your heart. For example, when I saw him for the first time in the ancient tomb, I had already decided that my heart would not be given to anyone else other than him … "
Shangguan Yaohua smiled helplessly and said, "It can't be helped. It seems that parents are destined to not have a perfect pair of children. Both sides have to complement each other. For example, if the elder brother is a genius, then the younger sister can only be an idiot. Ruoyu, don't pay attention to her. That girl has a little problem 'here'. "
Ping Ruoyu couldn't help but laugh and said, "How can there be an older brother like you? It's one thing to blow your own trumpet, but you still have to beat around the bush and call your little sister an idiot?" Cheng Jiaxuan bit his lip and said, "I'm serious. I'm so envious that Sister-in-law is so beautiful. If I were as good-looking as you, I'm sure he'd love me to death, and wouldn't give me the cold shoulder any more. Hmph … Chu Menglin, that slut, I've never seen her face. I really want to go and ruin her face. Let's see if he still loves her then. "
Ping Ruoyu smiled bitterly and stroked her long hair, saying, "Xiao Xuan, you're still too young and don't understand the complexity of this. A beautiful woman has her own sorrow because she will never know whether a man loves her or her face. If it's the latter, you know that a beautiful woman will age easily. When her youth fades, he will completely lose interest in you. What's even more tragic is that sometimes, even if you have a beauty that can topple cities, if your personality and habits don't match, he still won't love you. After all, for two people to be able to stay together for a long time, what matters is the unique feeling when they are together, and not just physical beauty. "
Shangguan Yaohua said, "Your words are too one-sided. Maybe she fell in love with the wrong person from the beginning and expressed her feelings wrongly. "
They were talking about the matters between the two of them as husband and wife, but it was also related to Cheng Jiaxuan. She mistakenly thought that the two of them were trying to persuade her to give up. She anxiously shouted, "No, no, I don't agree! The emergence of feelings should be fought for by oneself, and not be satisfied with just love at first sight! If we retreat in the face of difficulties every time we hit a snag, there won't be any more couples in this world! "
Shangguan Yaohua frowned, thinking that even an upright official would find it difficult to resolve family matters. Why should she care about the matters between us husband and wife? She didn't usually see her as someone who would fight for justice.
When Ping Ruoyu heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Little sister is indeed my soulmate! In this world, there are too many people who aren't willing to give their all for love. When they suffer a little setback, they blame the heavens and accuse others, as if they are the biggest spendthrifts. They claim that they don't believe in love anymore, but they don't think that anyone will care about what they think. "
Cheng Jiaxuan continued, "Yes, and it's fine if he doesn't believe in love, but he has to take things out of context and say that there is no true love in this world. Hmph, if he lacks love, why doesn't he look for his own problems? It must be that he's not good enough. "She was so emotional that she completely forgot that she was the one who" lacked love ".
