Lu Jieyuan knelt down to look at the woman, and reached out to hold her hand in her.The feeling of starting is not a young woman's arm, but a skeleton.The madam's face is also blue and white, her cheeks are deeply sunken, and there are deep shadows under her eyes.It was obvious that he hadn't eaten and slept well for a long time.

"If it's convenient, mother-in-law, can you let me go with you?" At this point, she turned to look at the woman and asked softly, "If you don't mind, can I call you Mrs. Shen?"

By now, the woman could see clearly that the person who came here really wanted to help her.So she nodded.

"Let me talk to Mrs. Shen alone for a while?" Lu Jieyuan looked at the old woman.The old woman knew Lu Jieyuan's intentions, so she slapped her thigh and said, "It's already a quarter of noon, you haven't eaten yet, my wife is here to cook for you."

As soon as the old woman left, only Lu Jieyuan and the woman were left in the room.Lan Xiang went to the kitchen to help the old woman.

"Maybe what I want to say is a bit abrupt, but I still want to say it." Lu Jieyuan said

The woman wiped her tears and sat on the edge of the bed with Lu Jieyuan's support.Her eyes were dull and she said: "It's okay, I'm already an unclean body. It's still a girl who doesn't think I'm dirty, and sits here and talks to me."

"Sister-in-law of the Shen family, why did you do such a stupid thing today?" Lu Jieyuan looked at the woman's eyes, which were obviously like a dry well, and she knew that this woman probably had no desire to survive.

The woman obviously felt sad when she heard Lu Jieyuan's question, and burst into tears.

Lu Jieyuan patted her back to prevent her from getting angry.The woman said: "After what happened that day, although my husband didn't say anything, he couldn't stop others from gossiping. He looked at me differently, and asked me that day if I was greedy for wealth and deliberately seduced me. The son of the rich family wants to be someone else's concubine."

"As a woman, after being insulted like this, what face does she have to live in this world? It's better to die." The woman said.

Lu Jieyuan shook her head, as expected, this world is unfair to women.She comforted her and said, "I don't think so, sister-in-law Shen, do you know? This principle is what people say to restrain women. But who said that a woman's chastity should be placed on her. If you let everyone but yourself Anyone other than her husband is unclean."

There was a look of doubt on the woman's face, but in Lu Jieyuan's view, it was a look of hope.

She went on to say: "Those who did wrong things are obviously men, why should the consequences be borne by the women who are the victims. There is a law in the world that stipulates this. This kind of thing should obviously be a man who is scolded by the world, A woman is not guilty at all as a victim. So, sister-in-law Shen, you are innocent, do you understand?"

The teardrops in the woman's eyes still seemed to be dry, and she looked at Lu Jieyuan's almond eyes with tears in them, which was especially endearing. "Really? Is what the girl said true?"

Although she hasn't read the book, she has heard about these righteousness and shame.But if such a woman from a high-ranking family said this, it must be a mistake in her previous understanding.

At this moment, she would rather believe in this strange woman, wiped away her tears and couldn't help showing the only smile in this period of time. "Then I trust the girl."

Just at this time, the old woman and Lan Xiang entered the front hall with hot soup and hot dishes.The old woman shouted into the room: "Girl, come out and eat."

Lu Jieyuan glanced at the woman who obviously had the motivation to continue living, took her hand and walked out: "This is the first time I have dinner at someone else's house, and I need sister-in-law Shen to take care of me."

The woman came to the table after cleansing her noodles, and said to Lu Jieyuan, "Thank you for letting me go earlier, Miss, I will always remember this kindness in my heart."

The old woman smiled and said to Lu Jieyuan: "We don't have any delicacies from mountains and seas here, so please don't dislike them. These are all from my own vegetable garden. You eat well, and I will serve the old man for dinner."

Lu Jieyuan was not polite as she ate this obviously simple meal compared to Lu's, but it tasted more delicious.Lan Xiang sat aside to eat under her order.

A few days ago, the woman didn't eat or drink at all and lost her energy. After Lu Jieyuan's persuasion, she finally regained the hope of living.Now pick up the chopsticks and eat with big mouthfuls.

Seeing her daughter finally willing to eat and drink from a curtain in the back room, the old woman couldn't help feeling relieved.

After dinner, the woman took the initiative to invite Lu Jieyuan to go out for a walk together.Lu Jieyuan readily agreed.The two went out, and there were other people around.At this time, red couplets and lanterns were pasted on the doors and windows, making it very festive.

Only then did Lu Jieyuan feel that the Chinese New Year atmosphere was getting stronger and stronger.It can't be said that she made a fuss, it was really hard to feel such excitement in the Lu Mansion.Every time because Lu Feng and Aunt Shan's house was full of chaos.

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon." Lu Jieyuan said, her little boots made a "creak" sound when stepping on the white snow.The woman on the side looked at her picturesque eyes, but couldn't imagine how such a well-educated woman would have such a younger brother.

"Yes, there are still two days left." The woman walked side by side with Lu Jieyuan. "I'm curious that you are the daughter of the Taiwei's Mansion. You were born so well, and you live in a wealthy life without worrying about food and drink. But after getting in touch with you today, I feel that the Taiwei's Mansion is not as good as I imagined."

"Haha, wealthy families have their troubles, and ordinary people have their troubles. Although ordinary people don't have so much money and rights, sometimes their lives are purer and more lively." Lu Jieyuan Slowly.

"Then you, as the daughter of the Taiwei's mansion, have a bad relationship with your younger brother, who is the son of a concubine?" the woman looked at her and said.

"Of course it won't be so easy. Because he is old enough to my father, so what does it matter if he is a concubine? He is the only male in the family, and he will inherit the family business no matter what." This topic was indeed something that Lu Jieyuan had thought about for a long time.

Even Lu Feiran, who is a compatriot with Lu Feng's mother, cannot escape the words "men and women are different".After all, this is why Lu Feng is more favored by Aunt Shan.

"So men and women have different opinions. It won't change anywhere, and it won't be different because you are dignitaries." The woman sighed.This world is always biased against women.

"That's right, in the eyes of the elders, women will one day marry into someone else's family, so they count us as people from other people's family since childhood." Lu Jieyuan smiled helplessly.

Ahead was a very large lake with a lot of weeds growing around it, and there was still ice in the center of the lake, with a thin layer floating on the water.Seeing that the road was gone, Lu Jieyuan turned around and said, "Let's go back."

The woman nodded, and the two returned along the same road.

"That's why I thought you really underestimated yourself when you committed suicide just now." Lu Jieyuan said: "Although this world has always been biased against women, we women can't despise ourselves because of this. If It’s truly pathetic when you think you’re worthless even yourself.”

The woman had never heard such a sentence before, and her heart couldn't help trembling.In her eyes, such words were deviant, but it made her feel that what she said was reasonable.

She remembered that when she was not out of the court, her mother told herself all day long: "As a woman, you must obey your parents' orders at home, obey your husband when you get married, and obey your son when your husband dies."

But she couldn't help but wonder at that time, why do women have to obey men's orders?Finally, today, someone spoke out what she was thinking back then.

Perhaps it was Lu Jieyuan's words that gave her a hard blow, so the two of them didn't speak on the way back, and each had their own thoughts.

Back in the house, Lu Jieyuan saw that it was not too late to say goodbye.The old woman came out from the back room, wanting to keep Lu Jieyuan, but she also knew it was wrong to do so.

Lu Jieyuan winked, and Lan Xiang took out a purse from her sleeve.Pass it to the old woman: "Mother-in-law, you can accept the money, it's important to see a doctor for grandpa."

Where is the old woman willing to accept, she quickly declined.

"This is what the Lu family owes you. Why don't you charge it? It's just interest. It really depends on you."
