Chapter 56 (2/2)

Mei nodded, both hands holding the teacup, compared to just now she was cold to

the bones, at this moment at least her palms were a little warm

“This old

slave has said to theThe

suffering ourwas from the old master, it’s a type

of suffering every son of an imperial censor has to experience The position of

an ie person cannot do it, it offends many, very few

close friends As a child thea

virtuous person will be taken unfair advantage of by people, when the master

was bullied, for thein silence, over time

people didn’t even knoas suffering

By the time

he was a young man, the mistress has also experienced it, that is the matter

with the Zhao princess At that time, the master finally for the first time

faced up to his own capabilities, he discovered he was too weak, unable to

control his own future His suffering at that ti we all

experienced, an unattainable suffering

During that

time, the master almost had a setback which ruined him”

Xia Ling

Mei lowered her head, concealing the pain in the corner of her eyes At that

ti unable to obtain Xia Ling Wo, she Xia

Ling Mei , but could not obtain his heart, how much more

was that sort of bitter pain co?

“That year,

the ht the old mistress

was seriously ill, afterwards, the old master also passed away Only the

mistress was left by his side, and three years later, even the mistress was

gone forever Even the master didn’t know, at that time there was a child in

ht, he lost the people closest to him He became a

loner”

Turning her

head, Xia Ling Mei’s gazed at the middle of the courtyard The leaves which had

just fallen had already been tra them into slush, yellow,

black and brown, clu

days

“Saying a

few disrespectful words, sometimes this old slave look at him, he only seems

like a large dog having been abandoned by his fa his den,

afraid to wander too far, dreading when the mistress returned she wouldn’t see

hiuarding such a

huge house by hiain to

despair, then desperation, until finally, he didn’t even knohy he was

guarding this place, who he aiting for…”

The old

housekeeper couldn’t help take out a s he opened the pack

of tobacco, unintentionally he grabbed a lot of tobacco threads pushi+ng it into

the spot of the pipe, using all his strength to push, striking it with

enthusiasreat, he didn’t even glance

at the accounts book which fell out

“The master

was pro entirely on the relations the mistress had

established for hi to

hiht, the next day when the master came back he immediately wrote

the accounts book, reporting someone to the emperor That was the first time

thethe whole family of a corrupt

official regardless whether they wereor old, all of them

beheaded, blood covered the floor, having washed it away the scent of blood

could be smelled half a street away After, he would come across assassination

day and night, several times his life was suspended by a thread, sometimes he

stayed in bed for a ain he would report

someone, that rude and impetuous manner, it resembled jealousy and hatred, which

brought about his own destruction

The master

has been alone for too long, unconsciously he believed the mistress would never

return He didn’t have his parents, the family didn’t want him, he had noby himself…”

Speaking up

to this point, the old housekeeper suddenly started coughing, pulling from the

pipe evenMei had already turned

cold, her bones also felt a slight chill

“At the end

of every year he waited for thethe hope which

supported hio on with a clear-head”

“Clear-head?”

“Yes,

clear-head While thecity, the master seemed to

live in his drea all kinds of reasons

to hurt hiet hurt, because

only when he is seriously injured can he fall asleep, when he’s in pain he

doesn’t have to think about anything, even y to

paint, take a stroll around Bailu acadeo to the Xia residence to be

bullied”

The old

housekeeper laughed, wrinkles for the pipe, he disposed some

cigarette ash no longer burning, those matters from the past dissipated with

the cigarette ash

“The

mistress has returned, this old slave is truly extremely happy Even more happy

because, there’s the young master, even if he hasn’t had the time to

acknowledge his ancestors, he is still the son of the master’s first wife, the

people in the residence is genuinely happy for the master Everyone in the

residence firmly believe it will become better and better, the old master will

no longer be harht, he will busily be

sith the mistress”

Xia Ling

Mei laughed

The old

housekeeper also laughed: “And busily catch the youngmaster

really is wild, when this old slave first discovered there was such a lively

child of the wang fa by the rules, mischievously stir up

trouble, and cohty, this old slave

really wanted to beat him up”

Xia Ling Mei

laughed even ht-hearted

“But,” The

old housekeeper brushed away the ash on his knee, that smile of his was like an

afterglow, slowly it died out

Xia Ling

Mei was silent, she faintly knehat the other person wanted to say The smile

at the corner of her e of the

teacup, the tea leaves in the cup had already been soaked so long they turned

yellow, the greenish-blue liquid was polluted by the blackness of the person’s

heart, yellowish-black evenly contareen

She said:

“But the memories of the past are too profound, he will always be worried,

afraid I will be disappointed in hi

the faain leave”

Xia Ling

Mei incidentally lifted her head, that’s when she notice there was so

sliding fro to her temple: “Bai Yan repeatedly

wanted to say so to me but then hesitated, he was afraid I would leave

once again and hurt wang Yun Feng, right…”

“He wants

to ask the o with the master Because, no one knows this time with the

master’s departure, if he’ll actually be able to return”

There was a

scar on wang Yun Feng’s heart, he was determined everyone could easily abandon

him His parents, his wife, his son, everyone could leave him, even if they

wouldn’t right now, sooner or later in the future they will

He will

forever be alone

He wanted

to protect them, but he also didn’t dare to
