Chapter 3705 Who Will Take Pity on Me?
Wei Heng smiled and said: "Liu'er and I grew up together. She calls me brother, which is a habit left over from childhood. If you don't like it, I'll ask her to change it."
"No, it makes me look like a chicken." Mrs. Xu curled her lips, "I'm not in good health now and can't serve you. I'd better go to Lixiang Garden to spend the night."
"I want to stay here."
"Why do you need to say something against your will, sir? Don't worry, even though I don't like Wu Liu'er, I won't make things difficult for her."
"You are a lady from a scholarly family, and Liu'er is just a country girl. How can you compare with you?" Wei Heng said with a smile, "Madam, you should know that I don't know anyone like that."
"I know very well what kind of person the master is. The bond between you and your childhood sweethearts is naturally no better than that of others. I am even less able to compare with you."
"Alas." Wei Heng sighed heavily, "I only feel a little pity for Liu'er. She is a hard-working woman. She lost her father when she was a child and grew up eating food from hundreds of families. When she grew up, her father wanted to order some food. Money, marry her to a sick and consumptive man, and endure many beatings and hardships for many years... The man is dead after all, so she will be relieved."
"I don't care at all who she was or what kind of life she lived." Mrs. Xu said coldly, "Of course there is a master who will take pity and care for her."
"Madam, what are you talking about?"
"What do you want me to say?" Mrs. Xu sneered, "Do you want me to pity her with you? Whose life is easy? Is it true that all these years I have lived with you have been a good life? You I pity them, but who will pity my daughter for marrying a man with a rough temper?"
The more Xu talked, the more angry and aggrieved she became, and her eyes became red.
Wei Heng frowned: "The more you say, Madam, you are going too far. Although the second young master is not perfect, he is definitely not as bad as you said. Hongluan is also my daughter. I have held her in my hands and doted on her since she was a child. Am I going to harm her?"
"In this case, the master will cancel the marriage!"
"No!" Wei Heng flatly refused.
"Haha!" Mrs. Xu sneered, coughed again, and her face turned red.
Wei Heng went to help her, but she pushed her away: "Get away from me now, lest I talk too much, be long-winded, and mean, and make you upset!"
Wei Heng was a little frustrated by her repeated sarcasm and fuss, and sighed: "It turns out that you still can't understand my heart. I also know that my wife is in a bad mood today. You should take good care of yourself first. Rest. I'm going to the study tonight."
Mrs. Xu raised her head and looked at his back, tears falling down her face.
Mother Yi followed her back and persuaded: "The fact that the master came here of his own initiative shows that he cares about the madam more. Why did the madam lose her temper and drive him away? Isn't this pushing people away?"
"He came here just because he had some guilt in his heart. If he really cared about me, would he hide it from me for ten years? He came here just to look serious, bah!"
Xu spat fiercely, "Sure enough, no man's heart in this world can be trusted!"
Mother Yi sighed: "Since Madam has left them behind, don't be angry. Life has to pass."
"I don't care that there are many aunts and concubines in the family. What I'm angry about is that he kept it from me for so many years... I have devoted all my energy to this family over the years. In addition to my illness and aging appearance, I also What did you get?
