The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 324 Between me and the Gu family, there are ultimately two lives.
But now, she is completely at peace.

"Your family offended the Duke of Zhou and the Emperor, which is the cause, and I became the sacrifice. Too many years have passed. Even if Bishui was wrong, she has suffered greatly."

It involves too many things and involves too many people.

Gu Fuju listened to the young lady speak calmly.

"I also believe that if you had been there during the fire, you would have risked your life to save me. But there are no 'ifs'."

"Perhaps it's too heartless to say such things. That matter back then can be considered a muddled mess."

“The Gu and He families have borne the consequences. It was not my doing that you and Madam Gu suffered so much.”

"My parents raised a child who wasn't theirs as their own out of kindness, but in the end, they were swallowed up by a sea of ​​fire."

Yu Tingwan's tone grew increasingly indifferent.

"This shouldn't happen to them."

"And I am one of the culprits of this disaster."

"Those people want to get rid of me."

but……

Yu Tingwan's lips tightened into a straight line. She said, "But don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"I've known all these years that the Yu family fire was suspicious, but I never imagined that I was the culprit."

If she had died in the mountains long ago, how could her father and mother have had an accident?

Mother is unable to have children, so she can adopt anyone from outside. As long as they can live a stable life, that would be better than her.

"Those who deserved to die didn't, and lived alone for so many years. Those who shouldn't have died didn't even leave behind any remains."

“I know that you are also one of the victims. These years have been very difficult for you.”

Yu Tingwan looked at Gu Fuju and said, word by word.

"But between me and the Gu family, there are ultimately two lives."

They were the two people she cared about most.

She is not yet able to accept the kindness of her biological parents.

Yu Tingwan stood up.

“I am grateful for what you said to me today. But in reality, it doesn’t mean much to me. It just tells me that I have never been abandoned from beginning to end.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the man opposite him closed his eyes tightly.

There was a loud thud, and the sound of something falling to the ground came from behind the screen.

Yu Tingwan didn't even glance in that direction.

She curtsied towards Gu Fuju, her manner of advance and retreat impeccable.

"It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now."

Gu Fuju could say nothing more and had to admit that Yu Tingwan was right.

In the end, he appeared too late.

The girl has grown up, albeit with some stumbles and falls.

He hadn't taught her anything.

The number of times we met was very few.

She already has the best parents and the best protection.

He was only grateful that he could still sit here and talk to Yu Tingwan calmly. Just seeing her doing well was already a blessing from heaven.

Gu Fuju's voice was extremely hoarse: "Father will give it to you."

Yu Tingwan: "No need."

She looked up and gazed out the window.

The birds were peacefully coexisting in the tree. But a dark black crow found its way in, forcefully darted over, chased the birds away, and then cawed hoarsely a few times before triumphantly taking over the entire branch.

Yes……

Blue crow.

Perhaps realizing that Yu Tingwan had seen it, the crow opened its beady eyes and hopped around triumphantly.

Yu Tingwan relaxed a little.

"Someone has come to pick me up."

Gu Fuju was about to speak.

"Please comfort the lady, I know the way."

Even though she had only gone through it once, Yu Tingwan had already memorized the route.

As soon as Yu Tingwan left the study, Qingya excitedly flew towards her.

Finally, it landed steadily on the girl's shoulder.

It nuzzled Yu Tingwan with its little head.

"I miss you so much."

Yu Tingwan suppressed her turbulent emotions and poked it with her hand.

The crow didn't have many feathers, so it was easy to guess who plucked them.

"Yo."

Yu Tingwan said quietly, "Still alive?"

She walked forward with a composed gait.

Tan Jiang followed behind her.

A blue crow kept chattering beside my ear, using words it had learned from who-knows-where.

Gu Fuju watched her walk further and further away until she disappeared around the corner.

He then turned around.

Her gaze fell on the candied hawthorn skewer placed on the table. The girl hadn't eaten a single bite.

Gu Fuju concealed all his emotions and went towards the screen.

Jia Shan stood there, utterly dejected. As Gu Fuju approached, he raised his face, which resembled the girl's.

She looked somewhat pale, yet forced a smile.

"I'm actually quite content. The fact that she's like this shows how good the Yu family really is to her."

Gu Fuju: "Yes."

"There's still a long way to go, take it slow."

He suppressed his sorrow and smiled at Jia Shan: "Madam, isn't this what we've been asking for?"

The carriages of the Duke of Shunguo's mansion were parked at the entrance of the academy.

As soon as Yu Tingwan entered, she saw the man inside.

Her gaze drifted downwards and she noticed a barely noticeable stain on the hem of Wei Zhao's clothes.

She knew how clean this man was.

Yu Tingwan: "You were eavesdropping?"

Wei Zhao admitted, "Yes."

At that moment, the carriage curtain moved.

A crow squeezed in.

Yu Tingwan: "Get out."

The crow tried to ingratiate itself.

Wei Zhao said indifferently, "Get lost."

Without hesitation, the crow tilted its body downwards, its claws slightly clenched, and then it rolled away.

Yu Tingwan: ...

Closer to home.

Yu Tingwan: "Where were you eavesdropping from?"

"roof."

"you……"

Wei Zhao admitted, "I am not of high caliber."

Yu Tingwan: "Actually..."

Wei Zhao: "I am shameless."

Wei Zhao said listlessly, "But the roof inside the academy is really dirty."

He really disliked it.

Yu Tingwan: ...

You deserve it.

She finally had the chance to say what she wanted to say: "Actually, if you want to hear it, you can just come in and listen."

Wei Zhao:......

He really deserves it.

As she entered the carriage, the wheels began to turn.

It's good that Wei Zhao heard it; Yu Tingwan won't have to recount the whole story to him.

She sat down, her toes touching the ground.

"Putting my parents aside, I don't know if I'm stuck in a dead end, but I am actually selfish."

“I can understand the Gu family, and I know there are extenuating circumstances. I don’t blame Gu Wu; all I can say is that she’s just luckier than me.”

"But for a moment, I wondered: if it were freezing cold and the Gu family only had one cloak to keep them warm, who would they give it to?"

Yu Tingwan smiled.

"I think it will be given to me."

"But whether there will be any hesitation, I don't know."

People have feelings.

Even if it's just a moment's hesitation, that's fine too.

After raising them for so many years, how could I not have feelings for them?

Wei Zhao heard the pride in Yu Tingwan's tone.

“But my father would never do that.”

"If he only had one cloak, regardless of any other reason or extenuating circumstances, he always knew that his Yao Yao was delicate and couldn't be allowed to get cold."

"He's just like my mother; he'd never let anyone else feel cold, not me."

Wei Zhao's Adam's apple bobbed.

Even though Yu Tingwan didn't say anything more.

But he could also understand her heart.

The girl seemed to be saying
—My parents are gone; they died right before my eyes.

—I feel guilty myself, how can I forgive others?

Wei Zhao had a thousand words stuck in his throat. Finally, he reached out his hand to her.

"come over."

He was hoarse.

"Let my husband hug me."
