Chapter 548 Don't say it, I don't want to hear it, I want to live.
Qiu Shu hurriedly said, "Madam, please go ahead and attend to your business. I'll let His Highness know. If His Highness is willing, I'll make the arrangements. If His Highness says he won't see you for the time being, I'll wait for you at the same place next time."
"Okay, it's settled."
Du Mingxian rushed back, and almost an hour later, she went to the front yard and found that the milk tea was still there, untouched, and Miss Tian was still looking excited.
She immediately went back to redo it, rushing to replace the previous milk tea with the new milk tea within an hour.
It would be a waste to throw the things away, so she took them and distributed them to the other servants in the courtyard.
These people sometimes receive gifts from young ladies, but they can't drink much if they want to. Today, they're getting some drinks for free.
This went on for a while, from morning to afternoon. Du Mingxian changed the milk tea several times, until the sun set and the milk tea was changed again. Miss Tian went from being excited and praying at the beginning to being disappointed and sad at the end.
"No need to send any more, you can take these away."
"Yes."
Today, each servant in Miss Dan Tian's courtyard received an average of three cups of milk tea, which shows how many times it was changed today.
Du Mingxian was about to leave with her milk tea when Miss Tian called her back, "Little Du, stay. Everyone else, leave."
The other maids in the room went out, taking the tray from Du Mingxian's hands as they left.
Du Mingxian didn't know why Miss Tian suddenly kept her behind, and she didn't dare to say a word, afraid that she might say something wrong and displease Miss Tian.
"Xiao Du, how is your relationship with your husband?"
"Okay," she answered without hesitation.
Miss Tian stared at Du Mingxian, looking completely listless. "Then tell me about what happened between you and your husband."
"Miss, this..."
"My brother said today that he could bring Mo back to me, but he didn't. This proves that Mo doesn't want to come back. I really like him. I was very happy when I was with him before."
“He also had feelings for me, but I never expected that he would change his mind so easily and not want to be with me at all. I… I’m willing to do anything for him except marry him, even have his children.”
Du Mingxian listened attentively on the surface, but inwardly she was cursing. Was this the kind of secret she should be listening to? The more she heard, the faster she'd die. This wasn't gossip; it was a death knell, every single word a warning!
"Miss, he is not worthy."
"No, you don't understand. You don't understand how good he is. He's really, really good. I really like him."
Du Mingxian: "..." Help! How am I supposed to answer this question?
"Someone is coming."
A maid immediately pushed open the door and came in, "Miss."
"Go and get the wine."
"Yes."
Du Mingxian opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
"Xiao Du, come and tell me about your relationship with your husband. I want to hear it."
Du Mingxian: "..." Want to hear a story? It's not hard to find one. Let me make one up for you.
"Yes, I met my husband when I was eleven years old. He had no relatives at home, so he wanted to go out and make his way in the world. But he was unlucky and lost all his money. He couldn't even afford to eat. I met him while he was walking and took him home."
“My parents only had one daughter, and I brought another one back with me. They raised him as their son, and when we were both old enough to get married, we developed feelings for each other.”
"My mother tentatively asked a question, and neither of us had any objections, so the matter was settled, and we got married with our parents' blessings."
“We were very happy after we got married. He treated me very well, never let me do heavy work, and always did things according to my wishes. He never went against my wishes.”
This story is the story Miss Tian longs for, and part of it is even similar to her and Mo's.
"Have you two never argued?"
"Of course we've argued." Du Mingxian said uncertainly. After she finished speaking, she noticed that Miss Tian's eyes were fixed on her, and she immediately knew which direction to take.
“We used to argue and even break up. Back then, I thought I would find someone better than him, someone who loved me more. But… the first person I met was so amazing that everyone else I met afterward couldn’t stand me anymore.”
"Yes, yes, that's right." Miss Tian wholeheartedly agreed, and her gaze towards Du Mingxian softened considerably.
Du Mingxian started making things up again: "My husband was spotted by another young lady when he went out. He didn't agree to it at the time, and the other woman even tried to force herself on him. My husband ran away and never went back. He even came back and told me that he was wrong."
“I don’t know what to do, but when I see my husband’s face, I think he’s right, I still love him.”
Miss Tian immediately advised, "You should stay with your husband and cherish the time you have together. You've finally gotten together, so don't do anything rash or irresponsible."
“I love him very much, but I have no choice. I am engaged to the Crown Prince of Ming. I must be the Crown Prince’s wife. And Mo is someone who cannot tolerate any injustice.”
"After he heard the news of my engagement to the Crown Prince of Ming, he left without listening to my explanation or giving me a chance."
Du Mingxian hurriedly advised, "When the young lady finds him, explain to him properly that you have feelings for each other, and he will definitely agree."
As Miss Tian spoke, she was filled with a deep sense of powerlessness. "I would like to get him to agree, but you don't know how stubborn he is. Once he's made up his mind, he will never change it. But he always makes an exception for me. I like it when he makes an exception for me."
"But the more someone is like that, the more intolerant they are of any kind when it comes to relationships. When he heard that I was going to marry the Crown Prince of Ming, he left immediately."
“I… My brother said today that he could find a way to bring him to see me, but he hasn’t come yet. He probably hasn’t been able to find him.”
What kind of person could make Miss Tian like this, still thinking about him even after he's run away?
"Young Master Ji is capable and will definitely find a way to get things done. Miss, just wait. Even if we don't find the person today, we will definitely find them tomorrow and bring them to you."
Miss Tian had held out hope this morning, but now she had no hope at all. "I do have some hope, but it's too small."
“Miss, you can definitely do it. You are willing to have his children, what else could he not want, except to marry him?”
"That's why, as I just told you, the more someone is like that, the less they can tolerate any injustice. The more he likes me, the more he can't stand me marrying someone else."
"He left because he was angry, and he doesn't want to come back now. Do you think I still have a chance with him in this lifetime?"
No.
"Of course there is. Miss is such a kind-hearted person, Young Master Mo must be thinking of her, but he is just a little afraid to face her."
