At the beginning, Zhang Yao felt that he was unlucky. Even though he had tried to hide, he was still robbed by Chen Danzhu.
Since he was unlucky, he had to accept his fate. It was just a matter of treating the disease and testing medicine. He would be obedient and do whatever Chen Danzhu asked him to do.
Unexpectedly, this treatment was quite decent, and Miss Danzhu was not as overbearing as the legend said, she was simply amiable, considerate and gentle - to be honest, when Zhang Yao grew up, the only person who was so kind to him in his memory was his mother.
It seems that Chen Danzhu is wholeheartedly trying to cure the third prince's illness and is not joking.
But when he met Liu Wei later, Zhang Yao suddenly realized that it was not him who was unlucky, nor was he used to test medicine, but Chen Danzhu was solving problems for his friends.
"I won't hide it from you. When we got engaged, you were still young. It was wishful thinking between your father and I. Now that the children have grown up, Weiwei has her own ideas about the marriage, so she is not willing." Shopkeeper Liu sighed and said, "
Because of this incident, she has been depressed."
Zhang Yao nodded: "Uncle, I can understand." He smiled again, "Actually, I don't want to either. My father and mother also said it was just a joke at the time. They wanted to make it clear to uncle about the termination of the contract. It was just that you left in a hurry. My father's career
It didn't go well, so we left our hometown, our two families cut off contact, and the matter has never been resolved."
Shopkeeper Liu looked at him: "I mean, although Weiwei doesn't want to, we can sit down and have a good talk instead of her letting others threaten you or scare you."
Zhang Yao shook his head: "No, although I was shocked when Miss Danzhu took me away, she did not threaten or intimidate me at all, let alone hurt me." After saying this, he smiled again, "Uncle, I had secretly told you before.
I’ve seen you.”
Shopkeeper Liu was surprised: "What?"
Zhang Yao smiled and said: "When Miss Chen Danzhu found me, I had already entered Beijing. I originally planned to set off again at the end of the year, but now that the war has been calmed down, Zhou and Qi have been under the control of the imperial court, and the road is smooth, so I followed a group of caravans all the way.
I arrived in the capital city smoothly, but I had a cough and had been wandering around for a long time. I looked very embarrassed. My uncle would definitely be sad if he saw me like this. I plan to recover first and then come to see my uncle——"
Before he finished speaking, Shopkeeper Liu shed tears and choked up: "You silly boy, what are you thinking about? You are sick. If you don't come to see your uncle, why are you coming to the capital?"
Zhang Yao's eyes were also burning and he supported shopkeeper Liu's arm: "I just don't want my uncle to worry. You see, you feel heartbroken just listening to it. But after seeing me, your heart is not broken anymore."
Shopkeeper Liu was amused by him again and raised his sleeves to wipe the corners of his eyes.
"I passed by the Huichun Hall and saw you, uncle. Your uncle is as energetic as the one I saw when I was a child." Zhang Yao stretched out his hand and gestured.
Shopkeeper Liu took his hand down and said, "Okay, don't change the subject by talking nonsense with me. Then, what did Miss Danzhu tell you?"
"Miss Danzhu didn't tell me anything." Zhang Yao could only say obediently, "If she hadn't suddenly brought Miss Liu Wei here today, I would have never known that she knew your family. She has always been very attentive.
Treat me, take care of my life, make new clothes, and have three meals a day——"
He pointed to the clothes on his body and his face.
"You see, in this month, my cough has been cured by half, I have also gained weight, and my face is glowing red."
Shopkeeper Liu looked at him and admitted that Zhang Yao was indeed very energetic.
"Maybe she wanted to be nice to you and wanted to persuade you, but she and Weiwei had a dispute over this matter, and the two of them suddenly confessed to you." He guessed.
Zhang Yao nodded. He also had the same guess. Chen Danzhu did so many things to persuade him to give up the engagement. But for some unknown reason, he suddenly said it bluntly like this -
Thinking of Miss Danzhu sitting across from him, looking at him and saying, "Zhang Yao, please tell me your purpose of coming." I wonder if it was his imagination. He always felt that Miss Danzhu completely understood his purpose of coming, and she was not nervous at all.
, facing the nervous Miss Liu Wei, there was still a hint of showing off and pride——
What's the point of showing off?
Is Zhang Yao, who shows off his pride, the kind of person she thinks he is?
Zhang Yao put away his reverie and said sincerely to Shopkeeper Liu: "Uncle, don't worry, no one is threatening me. I am really here to cancel the engagement."
Shopkeeper Liu was relieved and sighed: "Ayao, I, I'm sorry for you——"
Zhang Yao stopped him and pretended to be horrified: "Uncle, what do you mean? If you don't get married, you can't even be an uncle or nephew?"
Shopkeeper Liu was amused by him and reached out to slap him: "You brat, what nonsense are you talking about?"
At this time, Mrs. Cao called out to the master from outside and came in with Liu Wei, Mrs. Chang. Seeing their appearance, she asked nervously: "What are you talking about?"
Zhang Yao smiled and said: "Aunt, although we are not married, you still want to recognize me as your nephew. Don't kick me out."
Mrs. Cao happily complained: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who dares to deny your nephew, I will drive him out."
Mrs. Chang Da also laughed at the side: "You are not allowed to leave once you are here. You don't have only one uncle. Remember to come to visit my aunt." Then she said to Mrs. Cao, "When I go back and tell you, my mother will definitely not be able to wait and come in person."
I want to meet my brother Weiwei."
Zhang Yao, shopkeeper Liu of Cao Family, said he didn't dare, while Liu Wei smiled lightly from behind.
Mrs. Chang insisted that Zhang Yao decide a day to visit the Chang family before she left. The family sent Mrs. Chang out with smiles and watched her leave before turning around.
Mrs. Cao returned to the inner hall and hurriedly called for people to tidy up Zhang Yao's residence.
Liu Wei said: "Mom, I have tidied up my brother's apartment, and the bedding is all new."
Mrs. Cao smiled happily: "A brother has come and you are finally sensible. You used to be lazy and didn't care about anything."
Liu Wei blushed and complained: "Mother, how can I have it?"
Zhang Yao smiled lightly at the side.
"Ayao." Mrs. Cao took Zhang Yao's hand again and said with tears, "I only have your sister as my only child. I worry day and night that your uncle and I are gone and she will be alone and bullied. Now she is fine."
, you are here, you will be her brother from now on, you can take care of her, and we will be able to feel at ease even if we die in the future."
"Mother." Liu Wei felt sad and helpless, "What do you want to do on this big day?"
Zhang Yao bowed deeply to Mrs. Cao: "My mother always said good things about you, aunt, when she was alive. She said that her happiest days were when she and her lived next to each other at the foot of the mountain where my father studied. Aunt, I don't have any other brothers or sisters.
With sister Weiwei, I am not alone anymore."
Mrs. Cao held his hand and nodded with tears in her eyes. Shopkeeper Liu also happily said "good" repeatedly. The family was chatting and laughing constantly, making it lively and cheerful.
When night fell, the family, who had experienced fright and joy, fell asleep tiredly. Only the light in Zhang Yao's room was still on.
Zhang Yao tore through almost all of his tattered books, and the two boxes sent by Chen Danzhu that were filled with food, clothing, and medicinal materials were also emptied, but the letter could never be found.
He opened his clothes and carefully touched his whole body to confirm that it was indeed there.
But if it is lost, it will not be lost. It must have been taken away by someone.
There was no one else but Chen Danzhu. Zhang Yao stood indoors with his clothes on his hips, a little helpless.
Since you know that he is not a stalker of the Liu family, why do you still want to take away his vital letter as a threat?
