Chapter 37 Memories

The previous night seemed to have only existed between the two of them. No one else learned that, and Su Wanmiao tacitly did not mention this matter to anyone else. Even if someone asked where she went that night, she did not tell the truth, but just gave some excuses such as accidentally getting separated.

It was not until the morning of the third day after waking up that the Su family's convoy officially set off again, left the small town and headed to Yongxu Village.

This time, there were only Su Wanmiao and him on the carriage that Du Bai was riding. Originally, Ying'er should have served on the side, but Su Wanmiao found an excuse and asked her to change to a carriage. Although Ying'er was not sure, she still obediently did it.

She is also very happy about the development of the relationship between the eldest lady and the son-in-law.

However, as the wheels rolled, there was not much ambiguous emotion in the car. The two sat face to face and didn't say anything for a while.

Listening to the conversation of the servants outside the car and hearing the "rustling" sound of the wheels under the car crushing gravel, Su Wanmiao quietly raised her head and looked at Du Bai opposite her. She actually wanted to break the current strange atmosphere, but she couldn't find a good topic for a while.

This was the first time she doubted her ability to communicate with others.

Logically speaking, she has been influenced by her since childhood in the business world. She can find a topic for anyone and quickly hit the other party's point, thereby narrowing the distance between the two parties and taking the initiative to gain an advantage at the negotiating table.

This is what she has always been good at, and even her grandfather appreciates it, otherwise she would not have chosen to entrust her family business to her.

But at this moment, she could easily deal with her no matter how difficult the opponent was, she felt a little sweat stains on her palms, which was cold, which made her subconsciously grab the collar of her clothes, afraid that the person on the other side would see her nervousness.

When Ying'er was still there, she could still remain calm. When the two were alone, she seemed to be able to smell the faint breath of each other face to face, she felt that her heartbeat was too fast. She wanted to calm down, but she could never do it. The more she suppressed the emotions that were filled with her heartbeat, the more it seemed that it was about to jump out of her throat.

She felt more and more that in the other party's eyes, she must be in a mess at this moment, and she bowed her head and dared not speak, so she did not have the momentum she usually had.

At this moment, she really wanted to return to her when she was still in the Su Mansion. At least she dared to look at him directly at that time and would not even be able to speak.

Finally, Du Bai spoke first during her random thoughts.

"Wan Miao, have you mentioned the incident to others that night?" he asked.

"No!" Su Wanmiao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, slowly raised her head and looked at him, saying seriously as if she was afraid that he would not believe it, "I have never mentioned this to anyone."

"That's good." Du Bai nodded, "It's best if someone asks me about it in the future, don't tell it truthfully. It's hard to say whether it will cause any unnecessary trouble."

After all, it is a rune of the ghost clan, which may attract the attention of some people who are interested.

Su Wanmiao nodded, but then her eyes were slightly shining and she asked softly: "I know. In addition... the female ghost of Li'er in the mansion, Zen Master Huaisheng, said that someone was secretly helping him. Now I think about it, is that person your husband?"

Du Bai also knew that this matter would definitely not be hidden from the other party, so he admitted it: "It's me. The female ghost has a bad guy behind it, trying to harm our Su family. But I blocked it back. Now even if the other party does not die, he will suffer a lot. He should not dare to take action again in a short period of time."

Su Wanmiao's heart moved slightly when she heard this. She looked back and seemed to look at the direction she came. She asked in a low voice: "Is it the Liu family?"

Du Bai chuckled and said, "It's probably because he's suffering."

Su Wanmiao seemed to have put down a heavy burden in her heart, but her eyes brighter and brighter when she looked at him.

Which girl is not in love with spring?

She had also fantasized about what kind of person her future husband would be. If the burden of the Su family had not suppressed her tightly and forced her to become mature and steady, then she would have envied the legendary heroes who had traveled to the world and ended their grudges.

When she followed her grandfather's choice to marry a sick scholar she had never met, she had actually put down all the unrealistic ideas.

But she didn't expect that the man in front of her would stir up a little fresh color on her life that she thought would be like a stagnant pool and never-ending waves, which made her heart that had already died revived.

...

When she was a child, she didn't know why her father never came back, nor did she understand why her grandfather suddenly forced herself to read and write. Day by day, night by night, she held back her tears and did not dare to relax, even though she never understood the reason.

Until one day, my grandfather suddenly said that as long as he memorized an article, he would allow himself to go to the Lantern Festival tomorrow night.

She was very happy and worked hard to finish the article. Grandpa did not break his promise. That night, she saw the biggest lantern festival she had ever seen so far.

People shouted, and the streets were filled with colorful lights, some were performing miscellaneous plays, and some were parents and children to play. On the rippling river, grandfather took her and her sister to sit in the boat together, looking at the beautiful scenery on the street through the window, and the various aspects of life were reflected in her pupils, shining with crystal brilliance.

It was also at that time that my grandfather's voice suddenly rang behind him, with a bit of unpredictable vicissitudes: "Wanmiao, you should know that this lantern festival was led by our Su family."

She was still young and tilted her head ignorantly, turned her head and looked at her grandfather standing behind her, and saw him looking up at the beautiful scenery outside the window, but the only thing that reflected in her pupils was the loneliness and loneliness after the prosperity.

The straight waist, which was usually straight, was faintly hunched against the fire, and the white hair that was slightly messy by the wind sagged slightly. It seemed that she realized that this old man, who was so tough and majestic, was so old that he could not hide his old look, as if he had turned pale overnight.

"I want to tell those who secretly mock our Su family, and tell everyone that our Su family will never bow to them and will never lose!"

Grandpa sighed, looked at the young sister outside excitedly while lying on the window, then bet on her, showing a long-lost kind smile and said, "Wanmiao, I'll leave all this to you in the future. Grandpa... is all that can be done."

From then on, she suddenly realized that she seemed to be different from before. She had to make a change.
