Chapter 16

Lu Zheng became weaker day by day. No matter how Ye Xuan begged, he refused to take the medicine.

Ye Xuan even invited Mrs. Lu. Faced with her mother's hysterical crying, Lu Zheng sat up with difficulty and looked calm: Mom, I have never told you some things. Now that I have not had much time, I can just say it.

Mrs. Lu just couldn't stop crying. She didn't know why her beloved son had decided to die. After finding that she could not persuade Lu Zheng at all, fear and grief seemed to have crushed her in an instant.

She had been looking forward to the son she had been protecting with all her strength, and all her hopes and pursuits were poured into Lu Zheng. Now, this son actually told her that he was unwilling to live anymore.

I'm very tired.Lu Zheng whispered that living is a very tiring thing for him from beginning to end.

The memory of him is always surrounded by his mother's crying, the smell of medicine all over the room, everyone looked at him sympathize with him and loved him, they pity him, knowing that he is a dying person, so they all follow him.

But he was also unfree at the same time. He could not practice martial arts, ride horses, and could not even relax when leaving home and go far away. He could only stay in this small world forever and look at the sky that had never changed in more than 20 years.

Marrying Ye Xuan is the last thing he regrets in his life and the happiest thing.

It was like a pale page of paper dyed with a completely unfamiliar bright color. Ye Xuan did not belong to Lingyunzhuang, nor to this cramped world that could not breathe. When he saw that girl for the first time, Lu Zheng thought that she was completely different.

But she was also slowly swallowed up, and as day after day of grinding, the brightness became more and more dimming.

Let her go, so Lu Zheng made up his mind. He knew there was nothing he could do about it. How could the whining birds tied up and begging?

Now, I finally have freedom.

Mom, I'm really tired.Carrying my mother's expectations, I was forced to hate my younger brother. Over the years, he has been suppressing himself. Even though his mother forced him to marry, he was reluctant, but in the end he had to compromise. You forced me to get married and give birth to a child. You treat everyone around me as enemies and humiliate them at will whenever you feel unhappy.Lu Zheng knew that it was not just his wife, but his wet nurse, maids and servants who served him in person were all the objects of Mrs. Lu’s resentment.

The reason why Mrs. Lu was that his body was not improving, so the people around him were not serving him well enough.

Lu Zheng still remembers that he was very young at that time because he suddenly became fed. In a rage, Mrs. Lu drove all the servants around him out of Lingyunzhuang.

Among them was Lu Zheng's closest nanny, who had been with him since he was a baby, and the sister who told Lu Zheng the night before, and the young lady smiled very gently.

But they were all driven away, and the mother never asked him if he wanted to.

I don't blame you, Lu Zheng smiled. I just didn't want to suppress myself anymore. He looked at Mrs. Lu, and the anger on the woman's face gradually faded, and replaced by a kind of sorrow and confusion.

She probably couldn't imagine that her son looked at her like this, and the love she put for her son was actually a rope that tightened Lu Zheng's neck. If there was a next life, Lu Zheng paused and said the last sentence that crushed her. I hope we won't be mother and son anymore.

When Ye Xuan returned to the main house, Lu Zheng had already fallen asleep.

She didn't know what Lu Zheng and Mrs. Lu said, but just heard the people's discussions. Mrs. Lu was in a daze, as if she was staggering when she walked.

Is there any way? If even my mother can't dissuade Lu Zheng, Ye Xuan doesn't know what else can reverse his ambition.

She sat on the stone steps, and the yard was silent, just like she was crying outside the door that night. Lu Jin came over and pulled her into his arms.

Today, the plants and trees are still there, and people are completely different.

Lu Zheng probably didn't realize that he and his mother were actually the same stubborn person.

He stubbornly thought that this was for Ye Xuan's good, but he did not expect that there were several people who could enjoy the freedom built on his death with peace of mind.

If he really died for Ye Xuan, he would probably not be happy in this life.

She will live in regret and guilt forever, and it is even more impossible for her to be with Lu Jin.

Forget it, forgot it. Since you have broken up with that person, don’t think about it anymore.

He knew that he had blamed Lu Jin wrongly, but Ye Xuan no longer planned to bridge the relationship between them.

It's okay. She stood up and patted the gray stains on the hem of the skirt. She was about to push the door, but her hand stopped.

Axuan.I don’t know how long it took, but in this stagnant silence, the man finally spoke.

He lost weight, Ye Xuan turned around, and the man in blue clothes stood in the moonlight. She thought of their love on the roof for no reason, and the moonlight was so bright at that time.

Ninth brother, she smiled and said, "I am your sister-in-law, I won't call you this title in the future."

Lu Jin was not angry. Most of his face was hidden in the darkness. Ye Xuan couldn't see his expression clearly, and only heard him say lightly: Sister-in-law's meaning...is it impossible for us anymore?

Yes, Ye Xuan wanted to answer so decisively, but she couldn't say that sentence in her throat. Her husband didn't take the medicine from the King of Medicine. She said softly, as if she was explaining to Lu Jin, but it was just another convincing herself. He had decided to die. For me... For us, I had no choice. The girl's voice was choked, and she couldn't watch him sacrifice. I had already thought about it. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and looked at Lu Jin's eyes full of resolute light. If he was willing to listen to my advice, I would stay with him for the rest of his life. If he refused to listen, I would stay with him for the rest of his life.

When he was born, I became his wife. When he died, I could only go to the underworld with him.

The courtyard became quiet again, and the night wind blew across the branches, and the rustling sound seemed to be sobbing.

After a long time, Ye Xuan heard the man's silence sound: Is that right? He seemed to be smiling bitterly, and the stagnant string seemed to be choked again. I know, I know... He murmured. This was the first time Ye Xuan saw Lu Jin so distraught.

But the loss of composure was only a moment, and he quickly calmed down, looking at Ye Xuan indifferently, looking at the woman he loved deeply, since you have already thought about it, I can also make a decision.
