The night is a little drunk, and the new moon is high.
The temple courtyard in the mountains looks particularly quiet and artistic.
Under the huge osmanthus tree, the golden osmanthus blooms quietly, and the surrounding air is filled with the rich fragrance of flowers.
The moonlight shines softly through the branches, and a beautiful figure quietly stands beside the tree.
She picked up a fallen osmanthus flower from the ground and played with it unconsciously in her hands. She looked at the crescent moon in the middle of the night, and her whole body seemed to be wrapped in a touch of sadness and lovesickness.
After Comer visited his wife, he sighed silently when he saw that she still showed no signs of waking up.
He walked out of the guest room and was about to cross the courtyard to go to the front hall or outside the temple to take a breath, when he happened to see this scene.
The picture is beautiful, dreamlike, and Comer's heartstrings are quietly shaken.
"Sanniang?" Kang Mo didn't even notice that he had walked gently behind He Yi and called out softly.
"Master Guo?" Xu Shi really had other thoughts in mind. When He Yi saw Kang Mo, she said "Master Guo" as soon as she spoke. She did not call him "brother-in-law" like before.
"...You, how are you lately?" Kang Mo looked at He Yi deeply and asked suddenly.
He Yi looked back at Kang Mo, but did not speak. Instead, he gently twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a slightly bitter smile.
In fact, as soon as Comer asked that question, he realized that he shouldn't ask that question.
Because there is no need!
All kinds of rumors about He Yi were rampant in Beijing. He, a grown man who didn't deal much with women, had heard about it. You can imagine what kind of "terrible words" He Yi suffered.
He actually asked He Yi how she was doing?
How could He Yi live a good life when people gossiped about her all day long and was ostracized by ladies of the same age when she went out?
It was precisely in anticipation that He Yi would have a difficult life that Kang Mo felt particularly sorry for her.
When his wife He proposed that Kang Mo marry He Yi as his stepmother, Kang Mo did not fully agree.
Because in his subconscious, He Yi is still a child.
However, both my wife and the Yongchang Prefecture were very insistent, and the Dowager Queen gave in.
As a husband who respects his wife and a filial son, Comer can only acquiesce.
Later, He Tian invited He Yi to visit the Duke's Mansion, nominally to take care of his sick cousin, but in fact, He Yi was allowed to develop a relationship with Brother Yuan in advance.
He Tian wanted He Yi to be his stepmother and did something wrong because of it, all for the sake of his son.
He Yi is Yuan Geer's aunt. If they can get along with each other and develop a relationship, He Yi will become a stepmother in the future, and their "mother and son" will be more harmonious.
Although He Tian didn't want her son to call another woman "mother", she couldn't help it.
She cannot accompany her son to grow up. Once she closes her eyes, a woman will inevitably become her son's stepmother.
If it were his biological aunt who took on this role, Brother Yuan might not be so repulsive and could get along well with his stepmother.
It can be said that He Tian really considered everything for the sake of his son.
But the only thing she didn't consider, or in other words, couldn't control, was the human heart.
When He Yi came to the Duke's Mansion, she not only developed a relationship with Brother Yuan, but more importantly, her relationship with Kang Mo also changed from the original wife-sister-brother-in-law relationship to a somewhat awkward and ambiguous relationship between a man and a woman!
Maybe neither of them noticed it, but the feeling quietly arose.
Although later, as "He Tian" recovered from his illness, He Yi's hope of marrying into the Duke's government was dashed, and the relationship between the two seemed to have returned to that of a simple relative.
But even they themselves may not be able to tell what they are thinking in their hearts.
At this moment, in a temple in the mountains outside the city, away from the noise and gaze of the crowd, He Yi and Kang Mo finally had a chance to be alone together.
They looked into each other's eyes and finally noticed the strangeness in their hearts.
He Yi was shy but had a little girl's longing and fantasy for love. Kang Mo, who had never known how to treat his little sister as a woman, suddenly felt that the woman in front of him was so pure, beautiful, and pitiful.
!
The two of them finally recognized their hearts: I, I like her (him).
Another thing, it seems that the two of them have the possibility of being together again - He Tian is critically ill again, and it is hard to say whether he will survive until the next day.
Comer: ...He Tian was injured while trying to save himself. I feel a little unconscionable when I think so.
But he couldn't help himself.
Besides, He Tian is pitiful and He Yi is also innocent.
Moreover, among the pain He Yi suffered, there was also harm from He Tian.
Although He Tian had "punished herself", it was a blessing in disguise that she found the cause of her illness and gave her the possibility of recovery.
After careful review of the whole matter, He Tian still owed He Yi, his cousin.
Another point is that although Comer is not a superstitious person, He Tian's recent experience is too weird.
Kang Mo even had a premonition that He Tian was destined to die.
The lucky escapes I had before were only temporary.
No, less than half a month later, my wife was seriously injured again.
Comer felt that this might be God's will. He and his wife were destined not to be together forever, and He Yi was the partner who could accompany him throughout his life.
Once he had this understanding, Comer's guilt for He Tian seemed to fade a lot.
Of course, he still feels sorry for his wife, is grateful to his wife, and even feels sorry for her.
However, destiny cannot be violated.
He, Kang Mo, was just a mortal, and the only thing he could do was to take good care of his wife while she was still alive.
After she leaves, she will marry He Yi back according to her wishes, and raise Brother Yuan together with He Yi, so that her wife can feel at ease under Jiuquan!
"He's situation is not very good. It only happened in the past few days..."
After a long silence, Comer finally spoke.
"I, when I first arrived in the afternoon, I went to see my sister!" He Yi said softly.
Although she was not a doctor, He Yi had some guesses just by looking at Aunt Xu's look as if she was mourning.
This time, "He Tian" should really be in trouble.
Moreover, He Yi also felt that her life should not be so miserable.
God has played tricks on her once, and there is no way he will play tricks on her a second time.
"...Wait, wait for her... Yi'er, don't worry, I, I will never let you down!" Comer said vaguely, but they both understood what he wanted to express.
He Yi's clear eyes were sparkling. She sniffed, a little shy, and responded in a low voice, "Okay! I'll wait for you!"
The two of them didn't say much, but the overwhelming tenderness between them almost turned into reality.
Their hearts were in perfect harmony, their eyebrows conveyed affection... The two of them lingered silently under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree for a long time. It wasn't until they were more exposed that they reluctantly left.
Kang Mo first watched He Yi leave and made sure she returned to the guest room safely before turning around and heading to the front hall.
Comer's footsteps gradually disappeared.
Among the flowers on the other side of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, a figure slowly moved out.
The most favored daughter of the Minister of Rites' family, she was holding the corners of her skirt with both hands, and the skirt was covered with golden osmanthus flowers.
She was just greedy and wanted to secretly pick up some sweet-scented osmanthus to make cakes. Unexpectedly, she saw such a scene that made her blush, blush, and feel extremely disgusting...
