Chapter 128: The story of a man with a baby looking for his wife (8)
Chu Xiang definitely did the most daring thing in his life. He hid in a dark, deserted room with the boy he met for the "first time" who did not exist in his memory, and clung to him tightly and acted wildly.
Some things don't seem to need to exist in memory. Just the moment she saw them, the unconscious reaction in her body had already helped her make a decision.
The young man was so excited that he couldn't suppress himself. When he picked her up and hung her on him, his hands skillfully slipped into her skirt.
But then, there was a knock on the door, which became more intense every time. At the same time, there was also the sound of a child who seemed to be looking for someone.
The child seemed to be angry or crying and slapped the door, "Ah-ah!"
Chu Xiang's clothes were opened randomly, and the red bellyband embroidered with crabapple flowers was looming. She tried to push away the boy's head buried in her chest, "Wait a minute."
He didn't want to wait and kissed her again.
But someone was yelling outside.
"No, Mr. Chu fainted!"
Chu Xiang's mind suddenly came to her senses. She pushed the young man who was squeezing over with both hands, "Something happened to my dad!"
Fusheng's beautiful red eyes were filled with confusion.
Xiangxiang's father, what is that?
The news that something happened to the eldest master quickly spread back to the mansion.
The second master, Chu Wei, hurried into his yard, rushed into the room, and lowered his voice and said: "The eldest brother suddenly fainted when he was checking the accounts in the restaurant."
"Really?" Fang Luoluo sat in front of the dressing table and stopped dressing, pretending to be surprised and said: "He was fine, why did he faint?"
Chu Wei said: "I don't know either. I heard from the person who came to report from the restaurant that the eldest brother fainted without any warning when he was looking through the account books, which shocked everyone."
Fang Luoluo knew that it must be the expert invited by Fang Jiujiu who took action.
It was enough that the eldest daughter of the Chu family had bullied their husband and wife for many years. Now, because of Chu Xiang, her daughter had a family and could not return, and could only become an outlaw that everyone despised. Fang Luoluo had endured it for many years, and she really couldn't bear it anymore. .
But Chu Wei was kind-hearted and had always been thinking about the so-called brotherhood. Fang Luoluo couldn't let Chu Wei know who was behind it.
Their family has endured it for so many years. She will not endure it any longer. She will protect this family.
Fang Luoluo pretended to be anxious, "Can you ask a doctor to diagnose and treat my eldest brother?"
"Of course I invited you," Chu Wei said, "That girl Chu Xiang was also there, and she was very capable. She immediately called for all the doctors in the city, but those doctors said they couldn't find out what the problem was. There is no way around it.”
Fang Luoluo felt relaxed and secretly thought that ordinary doctors could see the clues to these crooked things?
"But an expert suddenly appeared. He claimed that he could heal the elder brother. Not to mention, as soon as he took action, the elder brother actually regained consciousness."
Fang Luoluo was shocked, "What?"
Chu Wei looked strange.
Fang Luoluo realized that something was wrong with her emotions. She calmed down and said, "I feel it is very sudden. When will there be an expert who can treat diseases in the city?" "I heard that it was a traveler who traveled here, and he brought a The child does not look like a bad person. The master said that the elder brother had a sudden illness and needed to take good care of his health. Chu Xiang has invited him back to the Chu family and asked him to help the elder brother recover. "
Fang Luoluo was puzzled. She basically knew what kind of strange people there were in the city, but according to Chu Wei's description, she felt unfamiliar.
For some reason, she felt vaguely uneasy.
Pei Yuzhou heard that Chu Zhao was going to the restaurant to check the accounts tonight, so he waited at the door specially today, hoping that when Chu Zhao came back, he could take the opportunity to talk to him in person about breaking off the engagement.
No matter what, Pei Yuzhou would not agree to marry Chu Xiang as his wife, and then bring Chu Zhizhi into the house as a concubine. Indeed, two years ago, Pei Yuzhou would have thought that such a treatment was okay, but the day Chu Zhizhi escaped and disappeared In a few days, he suddenly realized the importance of Chu Zhizhi to him.
A pair of people for life, this is what Chu Zhizhi said,
Pei Yuzhou used to think that it was okay for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but now, he just wants to be with Chu Zhizhi for the rest of his life, and he can no longer tolerate other women.
He would think of other ways to repay the Chu family for taking him in. As for his cousin, he would never marry him. It happened that he received news that Chu Xiang went to a restaurant with Chu Zhao. When they came back, He should also speak clearly to Chu Xiang.
The boy next to him reminded the Chu family that the carriage was coming.
Pei Yuzhou immediately looked over and saw the carriage stopped at the door of the house. He quickly walked up and said, "Master Chu..."
Before he finished his sentence, a girl said impatiently: "My dad is not feeling well, please stay away."
When Pei Yuzhou didn't become famous, he received a lot of looks. Later, when he got an official position, even if some people didn't like him, he would still speak politely.
So now, he suddenly heard someone use the word "go away" to describe him, and then saw that the speaker was a young lady wearing pink and tender clothes, and he didn't react for a while.
This was the first time Pei Yuzhou saw Chu Xiang after two years.
Perhaps because he hadn't seen her for so long, Pei Yuzhou only felt that the girl in front of him felt strange. He knew that his decision to regret the marriage had hurt her, and it was normal for her to feel resentment towards him.
What's more, two years ago, he failed to save her in time, so she fell off the cliff and disappeared for two years. She was a weak woman with a beautiful face. In the past two years, she probably encountered many unbearable things.
Pei Yuzhou feels a little guilty about Chu Xiang, but guilt is not love. He can take care of Chu Xiang for a lifetime, but he will never marry her.
Pei Yuzhou does have a good appearance, a cool temperament, and is even more refined. He has always stood out in the crowd and attracted attention.
Now, he took another step forward and said: "Miss Chu, I have something to do..."
"Get lost."
Pei Yuzhou felt like he had a lump in his throat. He didn't know when this cousin became so vulgar. The only explanation was that she must have stayed in a place of three religions and nine streams for a long time in the past two years, so she contracted bad habits.
Pei Yuzhou promised her aunt that she would not tell anyone about Chu Xiang's disappearance for two years. This was also to protect her reputation.
Yingying and other servants came over and stopped Pei Yuzhou, not letting him get closer.
There was a soft "ding" sound as metal collided, and a thin figure stepped out of another carriage. He was wearing a black cloak and was wrapped in darkness from head to toe. He seemed to be holding something in his arms. chest.
