I stared blankly at my brother's plain face, feeling that he was a little strange. He was the child who listened to my father's words the most. He was a good young man who was most passionate about orthodoxy, but in the end he did irreparable harm.

I had guessed my brother's feelings for Mu Yue, but I never thought that those feelings would be so deep. They might not have seen each other again for several years, but they were still so determined.

When wine and water mix, the wine will become weak and the water will deteriorate. Some people will become weaker when they meet another person, just like wine mixed with water.

I somewhat understood what my uncle said to me at that time. Maybe my brother was like the glass of wine mixed with water and became weak.

And what about me? I remembered what my uncle said to me when he came, and I realized that maybe I had never been sober. Ever since I entered the flower-filled courtyard that day, I had been walking in circles under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree and never walked out.

Pass.

So I promised my brother that I would save Li Muchue and do my best.

After my brother got my promise, his expression gradually relaxed, and then suddenly he became furious. He picked up the vase next to him and threw it from my ear, smashing it against the door frame and wall behind him. My father came in with no expression on his face.

He came to me and took me away amidst my brother's roar without saying anything.

Before I left, I looked back at the man on the hospital bed. On his ferocious face, only his eyes were filled with guilt, as if he was saying sorry to me.

He knew how rude the promise he asked me to make was, and just like what he said, he was a selfish person. But I didn’t have any position to abuse him, because like him, I was also a selfish person, what?

What kind of elder brother and what kind of younger brother are all the same.

I left home and walked to the courtyard. On the way, I thought about a lot of things, things about "Yue", things about Xian Man, things about me, and things about the clan.

Many things are like a mess. It just so happens that the weather is unfavorable and it rains again. So when the mess touches the water, it soaks into an inseparable knot, one link after another. Before I get any answer,

I had already walked to the door of the inner courtyard.

The door is open, and the entire inner courtyard is filled with the sound of raindrops on the flowers and trees. Under the familiar osmanthus tree, Li Muyue is sitting there as usual, but this time there is no Longjing tea or snowflake cake on the stone table. She is wearing

What she wore was not a cheongsam and a coat, but a black robe, without an umbrella, and a sheathed sword leaning against the stone chair. She didn't welcome me, I could tell.

I walked over, but before I got closer, I heard her ask me, "Do you know that Zhao Zianman has always known about me?"

"If it's an illness, I told Qian Man that she can help you with your illness," I said.

She looked at me and smiled, "In fact, Qian Man has always known that you like me, she just didn't want to say it. I have investigated her and found that she is the same person as your brother."

"What do you mean by the same people?"

"Traditional men and traditional women do what they like to do for the person they like. They can be wronged, as long as they can make the person they like happy, even if they have to be wronged for a lifetime." Li Muyue said.

"You know my brother"

"Of course I know, it doesn't stop me from calling him a fool now." Li Muyue said lightly, "To love something that you will never see a second time, to love in flames and screams, and then destroy yourself. They

Living in that moment, there are not many people like this, but you and I happened to meet them all."

I am speechless.

She gently waved me over and motioned for me to sit down on the opposite side of the stone table, less than one meter away.

She looked at me, with the rain running down her cheeks, and whispered, "Listen to me, go back, go find Zian Man and have a good sleep, and then forget what your brother said to you. He is a lunatic."

, the things he told you may make you promise that things will not bring good results to anyone. My fate was doomed from the day I became 'Yue'. Your brother did do something stupid, but it is still

A knowing choice may lead to a reckoning later, but in the end he can save his life because he is Li Yuande's eldest son."

"As for you, and Qian Man." She said, "You can be outsiders. 'Yue' is a mess. You can pass by and visit, but you must not try to take over. Your treatment of me is in vain.

Therefore, the clan leaders can tolerate the contact between you and me, but the contact is allowed, but the line cannot be crossed. Things that you have not really made up your mind to do are taboos that cross the line."

I wanted to refuse, so I looked up to look at her, but found that in the rain her pupils were molten red that I had never seen before, crimson, majestic, but tired.

"Don't try to touch the taboo, otherwise you will die, and Xian Man who is implicated by you will also die. Even if it is not for yourself, it is also for Xian Man. Let it go, then look back, and never come back again." She said.

I looked at her for a while, nodded, then turned and walked out of the hospital.

There was the sound of raindrops in the inner courtyard. The rain hit the leaves, the flower branches, and the pools. The whole world was being washed away by the rain.

She watched me walk away, and I counted the distance I walked.

When I stepped on the threshold of the inner courtyard, I heard a voice coming from far behind me.

coward.

I stopped, looked back at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and asked her if she had said anything.

She repeated her words.

I was stunned for a long time, and then a nameless anger arose in my heart.

I turned around and took a few steps forward, suddenly yelled and asked her why I was the coward she called me? After such long interactions, so many meetings, I made it clear, hinted so many times, and gave countless signals.

Asking for feedback with the same signal, but every time I thought there was hope, you avoided it! You spoke mysteriously like a riddle man, why did it get your turn to call me a coward! Even if the computer has been waiting for so long.

If there is no response, I will choose to shut down and restart it! I don’t know what you think!

She has never been one to retaliate when scolded, so the next moment I cursed, she scolded me back. She said that she could only live for four or five years, and if she took the initiative to knock me out and take me back to the bridal chamber, four or five

What should I do if she dies in the next year? Do you want me to be a widow? This kind of thing should be taken initiative by you as a man. If you have the courage to say that you want to take me away, what if I go with you? You say nothing

Send the wedding invitation to me. Before that day, I didn’t even know that there was a person named Zhao Yanman in this world. You have two fucking boats, eat and watch, and you shamelessly invited me to get married. Finally,

It's mine instead, isn't it?

I yelled back and said, I don’t know what you think if you don’t tell me! You rejected such an outstanding person like my brother, so who am I? When I met you for the first time, I asked you what your views on mate selection were.

What, you brought that stone table with your bare hands and told me to forget about anyone who can’t beat you. Of course I believed it! Who are you? You are the moon! You are someone else’s child! You are

Lin Daiyu uproots the weeping willows! Who the hell am I? I am a scholar who has no strength to tie a chicken, and I am Ning Caichen who bumps into ghosts when walking at night! My family married me on the fingertips, and my father

He told me in front of the ancestral hall that the Li family depends on me for the reproduction of future generations. What should I do? At that time, my father already knew that my brother was the next Yue! That’s why he forced me, the second son, to get married so quickly!

She was choked by what I said. She probably didn't know the inside story about my marriage to Zhao Zianman. She was so angry that she couldn't curse me anymore. She pulled out the sword beside the stone table and cut off the sweet-scented osmanthus tree behind her with one strike.

, the decades-old osmanthus tree, the kind where several people could lie on the tree, was picked up by her on one shoulder, and then she walked towards me.

I was stunned by that scene. Although she did not pull up the sweet-scented osmanthus tree with mud and bricks, the scene was enough to make me, who had never seen the world, stunned. I subconsciously took a step back and tripped over the threshold.

The child fell out. The last thing I saw was the roots of the osmanthus tree that penetrated the gate of the inner courtyard, and I heard the angry voice in the courtyard: "You idiot, get out of here!"

It rained heavily, and I sat at the gate of the inner courtyard filled with tree roots. I was as wet as a drowned rat. There was no other sound in the courtyard. I sat in the rain for a long time, until I shivered and shivered with cold.

He stood up, turned around and left.
