With a brain-loving husband [travel]

Chapter 38

Du Meijuan, who had just passed the age of Jiji, became engaged to Fang Changming, the young master of the Fang family in the town.

"Juan'er, don't blame your mother." Du's mother called Du Meijuan to her face, and covered her red and swollen eyes with a handkerchief.

Du Meijuan was silent.

She knew that Du's family had a business accident recently, owed a lot of money, the situation became increasingly difficult to adjust, and even many servants were dismissed.And this engagement is also because Du's father and Du's mother wanted to let Fang's family save Du's family through this marriage.

But even so, there's nothing surprising about it.

She has never met Fang Changming, but she heard that Fang Changming went to a private school, knew a lot of things, was handsome, and had a gentle temper, so she didn't have too many complaints.

Furthermore, there is no reason to resist the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers.

Compared with other women who were taken as concubines, her situation is much better, at least she is still the main wife.Besides, Dad also said that Fang Changming promised to only marry one wife in his life.

Du Meijuan took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears for Mother Du, and comforted her softly, "Juan'er doesn't blame mother, Juan'er thinks the young master of the Fang family is very good."

Hearing this, Du's mother paused, but cried even more sadly.

On the day of the wedding, although the Du family's property suffered a lot, they were still a big family after all, and the scene of marrying their daughter was certainly grand.

Strings of red firecrackers were crackling, and drummers beat gongs and drums all the way ahead, leading Du Meijuan's sedan chair to Fangfu.Along the way, the dolls were playing non-stop, vying for sweets, so the matchmaker smiled and grabbed a handful of wedding candies that had been prepared in his pocket, and sprinkled them into the air, bending a few festive arcs.

Du's mother was standing in front of Du's mansion supported by Du's father, watching the bridal sedan chair go away, and crying again when she thought about her daughter's future life.

"We are really useless parents who married our daughter to that person." Mother Du sobbed.

Father Du watched the festive scene go farther and farther away, and a tear fell on his skinny face.

After the worship, Du Meijuan was led to the wedding room by the maid, and waited for Fang Changming's arrival alone.

The door was gently closed, leaving only Du Meijuan in the wedding room.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her beating heart, and gently lifted a corner of her hijab.

Du Meijuan opened a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, and looked around cautiously. Her creamy skin was slightly flushed against the background of the scarf and red makeup, making her look even more handsome.

Everything in the house is red, the red letter "Happy", the red tablecloth, even the blanket on the basement bunk has been replaced with bright red, which shows the intention of the Fang family.

Seeing this, Du Meijuan's heart was like a deer bumping wildly, very nervous and looking forward to it.

Although she seldom has contact with men, she often reads some folk tales without telling her parents, and the infatuated love in it can often arouse her heart that has never experienced love.

There was the sound of steady footsteps coming out of the door, Du Meijuan's heart trembled, and she quickly put on her hijab again, her sight was instantly blocked.

The footsteps were getting closer, and Du Meijuan's heart was beating even harder, almost jumping into her throat.

The distance of a few steps is like the furthest distance in the world at this moment.

The hijab was lifted, and a pair of warm but helpless eyes broke into Du Meijuan's heart.

Spring is in full swing, Du Meijuan holds Fang Yun who is still babbling in her arms, and goes for an outing with Fang Changming.

The willow buds popped out, and the thin ice on the stream hit the bank one by one, and then bounced away.Fang Yun watched happily, and stretched out his fleshy little hand to grab it.

When Du Meijuan saw her, she smiled and put Fang Yun's side-faced hair behind her ears, "Once my brother Yun is running steadily, Auntie will take you to fly a kite, okay?"

The little Fang Yun didn't understand, but he still grinned and stuck his paws on Du Meijuan's face, causing the latter to laugh again.

After playing for a long time, Fang Yun felt sleepy. He lay on Du Meijuan's shoulder, his eyelids drooped, and he just refused to sleep.

Fang Changming smiled and took the initiative to hug Fang Yun, coaxing him softly until he coaxed the glutinous rice dumpling in his arms to fall asleep on his shoulder.

Although it is early spring, it will still be a little hot after walking for a long time.After a while, light sweat appeared on Du Meijuan's forehead.

Fang Changming carefully wiped away the saliva from the corner of Fang Yun's mouth, waved his hand and stepped away from the maid who wanted to come forward to carry Fang Yun away, and then took a handkerchief to wipe off her sweat, "Tired?"

Hearing this, Du Meijuan smiled and shook her head, touching Fang Yun's little bun.The dumpling in his arms seemed to have dreamed of something delicious, and there was a grin on the corner of his mouth.

Du Meijuan occasionally rests and thinks, this is the life she expected when she was not out of the cabinet.

There is no great wealth, no serious illness, and being with your husband and children is the happiest thing in the world.

A few years later, Fang Yun began to attend his elder brother's school, and his second son, Fang Xiao, was born.

It's just that this ordinary day was quickly broken. After the autumn fell overnight, Fang Changming seemed to be a different person.

I no longer want to talk to her more, and I no longer look at my two sons more.He went out before dawn, and didn't come back until midnight, with a faint fragrance of makeup and powder lingering on his body.

It's a faint pear blossom fragrance, a powder she never likes to use.

He even proposed housing allocation on the grounds that he was tired of doing business.

I don't know from which day, the maids in Fang's mansion like to gossip behind their backs.

"It's the young master's former sweetheart, Brother Xue, who has returned. I saw it yesterday."

"But didn't the young master marry the young lady? Why did he still go to see Brother Xue?"

"I heard that it was forced by the master. The young master has always been thinking about brother Xue. But the Fang family can't accommodate another brother to enter the main house, so the master drove brother Xue out of the town and chose the daughter of the Du family. As a master, isn't it easy to get rid of someone or marry someone else to the young master?"

"Our young lady is really useless. The feelings of so many years can't hold the young master's heart. I have given birth to a brother and a man."

Du Meijuan leaned against the thin wall outside the kitchen, and the words of the maid in the room were like needles, mercilessly poking her tender heart to bleed.

In the middle of the night, Fang Changming, still wearing the fragrance of makeup and powder, entered the side room with a guilty heart.Walking into the room, he glanced at the main room which was still lit with candlelight, hesitated for a moment and walked forward to push open the door, but then stopped and lowered his eyes.

The candlelight flickered like a flame of hope in my heart.

For a long time, the night covered his soft sigh, and everything fell into silence.

Du Meijuan in the room raised her eyes and stared at the silhouette standing outside the door, her heart was beating like a wedding night.But the silhouette stood in front of the door for a moment and then left.

Blood flowed out of his heart slowly, burying all the happiness of the past in the abyss of that night.

She began to follow Fang Changming's actions, and found the rumored brother Xue.

It was a very handsome brother with a pair of slightly curved peach blossom eyes, which were somewhat similar to her eyes.

She saw that Fang Changming narrowed his brows and eyes when he saw that brother, just like when he looked at her back then.

Gentle, warm, like the warm sun.

But he gave that smile to others, to a brother.

She finally understood why A Niang was so sad on the day of the wedding; she suddenly understood why Fang Changming had helplessness and sadness in his eyes on the night of the wedding.

She understood everything.

It turned out that Fang Changming's promised "only wife" was not her.

It turned out that she was a poor person who had been kept in the dark.

She began to smash things in the mansion, began to abuse maids for no reason, and began to become what others called a crazy woman. She often sat in the lobby and stared at the door with crazy hair, waiting for that person to change his mind.

But no.

Fang Changming walked farther and farther, longer and longer.Until later, even Fangfu was unwilling to go back, and even unwilling to look at her.

She kept wondering, what the hell was ruining her day?Is it her tolerance and gentleness that had no bottom line before, or the life she expected was too simple?

She couldn't figure it out.

The ten-year-old Fang Yun saw that his mother was always staring at the door in a daze, so she stretched out her small hand and hugged Du Meijuan's waist.

He was still young and could only wrap around half of Du Meijuan's waist, but he still put his soft face against Du Meijuan's palm, and tried his best to comfort his mother.

"Don't be sad, Auntie, Yun'er will always be with Auntie." The soft voice said to her like this.

She lowered her eyes and met those shining almond eyes, which resembled Fang Changming's eyes.

There are not too many impurities inside, and it is as pure as the clean and flawless sky in early spring.Her cloudy eyes looked worthless in comparison with these eyes.

She suddenly understood why she would lose the original happy days.

It was brother who brought her misfortune.Brothers in this world turned out to be so cunning and filthy, which broke her heart.

She ruthlessly pushed the little Fang Yun to the ground, Tao Hua's eyes were full of anger.

"Ah!" Fang Yun was caught off guard and fell to the ground, his immature elbow was scratched, and the pain was excruciating.

But even so, he didn't dare to call out too loudly, for fear that A Niang would be even more upset if she heard it.

"You dirty brothers, don't touch me." Du Meijuan stared at Fang Yun indifferently, the emotions in her eyes were filthy. "I'm sick."

Fang Yun, who has always been protected by his parents, has never seen his mother like this, and has never heard her scold him like this. He was so frightened that he immediately fell silent, but Dou Da's tears welled up from his almond eyes.

At this moment, Fang Xiao, who was a baby in the room, burst into tears for some reason, waving his small fists in the air.

Du Meijuan squinted at Fang Yun, walked into the room and hugged Fang Xiao, put her face against Fang Xiao's little face that was wrinkled from crying, and murmured: "Xiao'er, you are the only one left, Ma'am."

At that moment, the empty eyes seemed to see hope, and some dim light finally shone.

She only had Fang Xiao left.

Not long after, people in the town reported that Brother Xue fled overnight after stealing Fang's money.

It turned out that Brother Xue chose to return to Fang Changming's side a few years later in order to avenge his being driven out of the town and being homeless.

He seduced Fang Changming with his good words, and cheated all the money from the Fang family, so that Fang Changming, a heartless man, could taste the pain of losing everything.

But Fang Changming is still immersed in the lost and found of his sweetheart, how can he think of this, he will do whatever Xue Geer asks.He still thought that Xue Geer, who was pure at heart, was still there, and Xue Geer's love for him was still there.

When all the lies were exposed and all the property in the mansion was pawned, he realized that he had lost everything overnight.

He knelt on the ground, stared at Du Meijuan holding Fang Xiao tightly, and stared at him coldly, as if looking at the dirtiest thing in the world.

At this time, he suddenly realized that he had abandoned the happiness that should belong to him, and went to extravagantly ask for something that did not belong to him.

"You don't want me to forgive you." Du Meijuan, who gently brushed away the dust for him in the past, now has a sharp knife in her eyes, and returned all the scars on her heart without leaving the ground.

Fang Changming closed his eyes in silence, accepting his mistakes.

That was what he owed Du Meijuan, and he was not qualified to pay it back.

They moved from a spacious mansion to a thatched hut with a leaky roof, put on rough linen clothes, worked in the fields and weaved clothes for a living, and ran around every day to fill their stomachs.

Because she had never done these tasks, Du Meijuan's slender hands were often bruised and bloody, and she couldn't even hold chopsticks.Sometimes, in order to fight for things, Du Meijuan changed her style of a young lady, rolled up her sleeves and rushed forward to fight with others, forcefully forcing herself into a shrew that everyone resented.

And every time she saw a brother approaching from a distance, she would spit on her viciously, making people who had a brother in the family not want to see her.

But she knew that only in this way could she protect Fang Xiao and herself.

She hated her brother, hated herself even more, hated herself who vented her anger on Fang Yun, hated herself who was incompetent.

She was also a woman who was doted on and loved by others, why is she now reduced to this ghostly appearance.

She didn't laugh again until that man smashed her home and her dark heart, pointed a stick at her nose and warned her not to touch Fang Yun again.

Happily, he laughed out all the years of pain.

Great.

Finally someone is willing to love her brother Yun.
