Chapter 34 You Are Guilty
Chapter 34 You feel guilty
The words she had been holding in her heart finally came out, and Li Erya suddenly felt refreshed. Even though she didn't get a positive answer, she still walked out of the room with brisk steps.
Just when he met a stinky face at the corner, and there was nowhere to put his feet, Li Erya took a step back. Not knowing what happened, he took a detour without thinking.
"What did you say to your mother?" Shen Muyin stopped her again and asked suddenly.
Li Erya raised his eyebrows, he was eavesdropping, "Good thing."
"What good thing?" Shen Muyin asked again.
"Mu Yin, is that you?" Mrs. Shen heard his voice and couldn't wait to come out to help Li Erya, "Come, mother has something to ask you."
Li Erya quickly ran away.
Shen Muyin suddenly wanted to leave, but was held back by his mother.
"I want to read a book." Shen Muyin said in a hurry.
However, this excuse didn't work anymore. Mrs. Shen didn't care whether he wanted to read or not, "Take a break, don't be in a hurry. Mom wants to talk to you about what's on her mind."
"If you have anything to say, just say it here." Shen Muyin frowned and kicked the corner, still a little unable to accept the fact that Li Erya actually wanted to be his brother and sister.
He thought that she did so many things because of him, and he almost convinced himself to accept her, but what happened?
Fortunately, she could think of it, but he knew that his mother was moved.
Sure enough, his mother was asking her what she thought of Li Erya.
"What's the idea?"
"It's just what do you think of her as a person."
"Not very good."
"Mom knows that you are a bit wronged by asking you to marry her. It's not that she's not good, it's just that you two are not suitable. Besides, she saved your brother, and our Shen family can't lose her. According to you, she is our Shen family's How is your daughter?"
"No, dad won't agree to it."
"Your father just accepts death. Don't imitate your father. It may be a little difficult in Taichuan County, but returning to Qidu is not a matter of your words."
"We'll talk about it then." Shen Muyin suddenly felt a little irritable and didn't want to talk about it anymore.
But it sounded to Mrs. Shen that he agreed, so she didn't stop him anymore.
Thinking that when they return to Qidu, they can tell the outside world that it was because Li Erya saved Mu Ci that they adopted her as their daughter. As for what happened before this, as long as they don't mention it, who will dig into it.
The important matter on her mind was settled like this. Mrs. Shen's eyes looked at Li Erya with a little more kindness, and she could be said to treat her equally with Shen Qingrou.
Shen Qingrou was still a bit dissatisfied and had a few temper tantrums. After getting the unexpected answer, Shen Qingrou felt a little complicated and asked the same question, "Can dad agree?"
"Keep your voice down." Mrs. Shen also felt guilty, her eyes drifted over, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't notice them.
"Look." Shen Qingrou muttered, "I knew it."
"I will find a chance to talk to him. Please keep your mouth shut." Mrs. Shen turned to her, her face lost all tenderness, and she warned in a low voice.
"I know." Shen Qingrou promised, "If dad finds out..."
"You still said that." Mrs. Shen said with lingering fear, thinking of the man's angry appearance.
In fact, in the case of King Wei, she had urged him to protect himself wisely, but he wanted to save his friends, which ended up putting his family in this situation. It was the only time they had a red-faced quarrel after they got married.
Mrs. Shen repeatedly warned her daughter not to spill the beans in front of her father, "Just pretend you don't know about it. Your brother has already agreed, and your father is the only one left."
"Don't you still have a brother?" Shen Qingrou muttered.
"This matter has nothing to do with your brother." Mrs. Shen nodded her forehead, "You still said that!"
Shen Qingrou shut her mouth tightly.
Mrs. Shen then asked her to find something to do first.
Shen Qingrou thought for a while and went to help pick up kapok. She heard that it could be exchanged for money, and the flowers she picked were hers.
Li Erya had been standing guard under the kapok tree for a long time, and the ground was clean.
Shen Qingrou looked at the kapok in her basket, and suddenly felt like she had picked up all the money.
The kapok tree is very tall, and there are many kapok trees blooming on the crown, but unfortunately they are out of reach.
Li Erya turned to look at her, wanting to say something, but unfortunately the two of them never talked much into each other's words, so they just smiled in the end.
Shen Qingrou thought of her mother's words and deliberately asked, "Do you still want to pick up kapok?"
"No more. There is another one over there, but it is surrounded by thorn bushes." Li Erya pointed to the kapok tree on the other side of the col. The kapok trees there were difficult to pick, so she had given up.
Shen Qingrou didn't know what to say. She looked at her curiously and suddenly understood the strange feeling in her heart. She actually looked down on her brother. Why?!
"My brother has been very good-looking since he was a child."
"Um."
"Many people praise him."
"Um."
"He's also very smart."
"oh."
"My dad said he will be successful when he grows up."
"oh."
"He will become a high official."
"oh."
"..."
Shen Qingrou took a deep breath, wishing to scold her awake. The person you ignore now will be out of reach for you in the future. What you have lost is the opportunity to be the wife of Emperor Gaoming.
But why did she tell her? Shen Qingrou turned away in anger.
"Come out." Li Erya watched her leave without any intention of chasing after her, because the person involved was here and she wanted to hear how he felt.
In fact, she sympathized with Shen Qingrou a little. As the only daughter in the family, she was not much loved. Instead, she was under the same pressure as Mrs. Shen. She put all the family's hopes on Shen Muyin, and even married Shen Muyin in order to make him stand out. Give it to people you don’t like.
She can't do this. She prefers to put the chips on herself. Unfortunately, here, she can't pass the imperial examination, and she needs a backer to do business.
As a backer, the Shen family is relatively reliable, but recently she doesn't know how to provoke him. Facing Shen Muyin, who is obviously three years younger than herself, Li Erya felt that she couldn't figure out his thoughts for a moment.
"Are you really Li Erya?"
"Who am I if I'm not Li Erya?"
"Asking even though you know it."
"What about you?"
"What's wrong with me?"
"You feel guilty."
"Where do I feel guilty?"
"You seem to know something will happen to your brother."
"I knew the water would rise there sooner or later."
"Is that really all there is to it?"
"I asked you first."
"Everyone has questions, regardless of first come, first served."
"Do you have any questions?" Shen Muyin asked tentatively. He hadn't exposed himself in front of his parents. How could she guess his reborn identity?
He seemed to have confirmed that she had a problem, but he was not sure if she knew about his problem. He was just waiting for her to take the bait. Shen Muyin thought of a countermeasure and let her look at him calmly.
