Chapter 93: Deep Emotions + Misty Rain + Water Clouds Between Worlds

  A group of people were jumping and making a ruckus in the cramped and drafty Shuiyunjian, causing Cuiping, who was standing outside the door, to frown. Even though she had already decided to settle her marital issues with Mei Ruohong, seeing this Shuiyunjian, which was even more miserable than their old home in Luzhou, and hearing the quarrels of that group of people, she really didn't know how to conduct herself.

  No matter what, she is Mei Ruo Hongming's lawfully wedded wife, yet he took a concubine without her consent. Not only that, but the concubine got pregnant before the wedding documents were even finalized, and to make matters worse, there's another backup plan on the side!

  Lowering her head to take a glance at the painting standing beside her with an air of listlessness, Cuiping once again felt grateful that her younger brother had come looking for her; otherwise, even if she had brought the painting to Shuiyunjian, she wouldn't have been able to spend a good day.

  Yah Ge slightly nodded his head to signal, and the burly man beside him walked forward and knocked heavily on the dilapidated door panel, finally making the men and women who were indulging in their screams react. Looking at the people outside the door who didn't look like ordinary people, the crowd in Shuiyunjian looked at each other in dismay.

  In their hearts, no matter how they made a fuss, it was all internal affairs of the Drunken Horse Painting Society and couldn't be laughed at by others! At this time, several people obviously forgot that the door panel of Shuixiangjian was full of gaps. As long as the voice was slightly louder, there were no secrets between them.

  They should be grateful that this is a relatively secluded place by West Lake, otherwise the impoverished and struggling painter would have had to reveal some unpleasant things about the Wang and Du families' daughters-in-law in tomorrow's newspaper!

  Facing the imposing momentum of the newcomers, it was still Mei Ruo Hong, the master of Shuiyunjian, who stood out in the end. After all, this was his home turf: "What brings you gentlemen to Shuiyunjian?"

  Cui Ping took a few steps forward and said faintly, "Ruo Hong, I am Cui Ping. I came to find you today to discuss the matter of our divorce." Next to her, a big man opened the box in his hand, inside which were several spirit tablets. The two most eye-catching ones were the memorial tablets of Mei Ruo Hong's parents.

  "This is the ancestral tablet of your grandparents and great-grandmother. In the ten years since you left your hometown, many things have happened. In recent years, your hometown has been plagued by floods and droughts, and several elderly people in our family did not survive." Cuiping calmly handed the tablet to Mei Ruohong, who was stunned like a wooden chicken. "The old people are all gone. One day, when I woke up with Hua'er, my brother and sister-in-law were also nowhere to be found. It seems they left their hometown to make a living."

  Cui Ping continued to drop bombs, pulling out a painting that had been fed by Ya Ge and was as delicate as a thousand gold pieces: "This is Mei Hua, the one you left in my belly when you left your hometown. Your father said you could paint well, so he gave her this name."

  "Cui Ping... painting... this... haha..." Mei Ruo Hong held several plaques, laughing but not crying, he didn't think that his long-forgotten past life would find him like this... wait, Cui Ping and Hua Er's clothes seem to be different from what she said?

  "This is Murong Yage, the younger brother I told you about who got separated from me since childhood. If he hadn't sent someone to our old home to look for me because he still had some impression of his sister, probably neither I nor Hua'er would have seen you again." Cuiping didn't want to get entangled with this man any further, Hua'er was his flesh and blood, she couldn't keep it from him, more so should let the father-daughter meet each other, otherwise she wouldn't have brought her daughter here this time.

  "Ruo Hong, this time we came to find you, we are not looking for relatives. Although I and Ya Ge live in Shanghai, but the matter between you and the daughter of the Four Seas Shipping family, I still know a bit about it. I know that nowadays new knowledge youth all emphasize what free love, my marriage with you...” She smiled self-deprecatingly and elegantly wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, "In your opinion, Ruo Hong, it's probably a stain."

  "I'm here to wipe out this stain, let's find a time to get divorced."

  If the previous words of Cuiping made the faces of the crowd change from green to white, then this sentence shocked everyone. Is this really a rural woman from a remote village? How can she be similar to everyone's talented girl, and also understand the concept of divorce that educated young people talk about?

  But now is not the time to be shocked that Mei Ruo Hong was once married. The child in Wang Zi Xuan's belly still needs to be dealt with, and Miss Wang cannot become Mei Ruo Hong's second wife! Du Xuan Xuan... also cannot become Mei Ruo Hong's concubine, so everyone looked at each other and decided unanimously that they should first let Mei Ruo Hong divorce Cui Ping!

  Although it's a bit unfair to Cuiping and Hua'er, their current life seems pretty good too. It seems that Cuiping's brother doesn't mind supporting his sister and niece either, otherwise why would he send someone to the Sichuan mountains to find his lost sister?

  And so, Ya Ge's plan was successfully accomplished.

  When she received the paper, which was only half the size of A4 paper, written in regular script with her and Mei Ruo Hong's names, the length of their marriage, and "The husband and wife are willing to divorce, and both parties' parents will not pursue each other. From the date of this divorce agreement, the man and woman will be free to remarry, and from then on, they will never pursue each other again." At the time of signing the divorce contract, Cui Ping's expression was inexplicable.

  She was like a lost soul, handing over the divorce contract signed by witnesses and dated to Yage, holding onto Hua'er's hand, turning around and leaving this place.

  Even if her purpose was to divorce Mei Ruo Hong, it was really unexpected that everything went so smoothly. In this marriage, only she paid the price and was heartbroken, but Mei Ruo Hong had long forgotten that she existed as his wife.

  Thinking of the unfamiliar eyes she saw when she met her, and the loss of soul after knowing who she was, Cui Ping's tears fell one by one along her cheeks. Just this once, from now on she would never cry for him again, she still had her painting, she wanted to raise it up!

  Everyone says that once you have a stepmother, you'll have a stepfather, so she can't leave the painting to Mei Ruohong. Moreover, he never thought of keeping this daughter anyway. He's going to have another child soon, how could he care about this suddenly appearing daughter!

  He nodded at the crowd between the water and clouds, and Yage led his subordinates to chase after Cui Ping and her mother. The smoothness of things was unexpected for him, but it was a good thing for him, he didn't want to get entangled with Mei Ruo Hong, he had always kept a distance from those who were more emotional than ordinary people.

  After returning to Shanghai, Yage began to formally arrange the immigration affairs of a big family. Those who wanted to stay would stay, and those who were willing to follow him would take them away.

  "Yage, you can do more things in the US, I'm different, my battlefield is here." Qin Wuya said with a cigar in his mouth. He chose to stay, although he was also Yage's confidant, but he didn't have much talent either, managing a big Shanghai was his limit.

  Patted Qin Wu's shoulder, Ya Ge said: "When you want to leave Shanghai, give me a call or telegram, I'll send someone to pick you up."

  Qin Wu nodded solemnly, and everything was self-evident without needing to be said.

  "Fortunately, Master, it's a good thing I listened to you and refused Lu Yiping back then. Otherwise, we would be in big trouble now." Qin Wu started teasingly calling Ya Ge "Master" again after the serious topic had passed.

  "What's going on?" During this time, Ya Ge was busy with Cui Ping and Mei Ruo Hong's matters, and except for Lu Mengping's affairs regarding the Lu family, she hadn't paid much attention to anything else and didn't know what other commotion had occurred.

  Qin Wu took a puff of his cigar and said with some schadenfreude, "The 'Three Swordsmen' from the Shanghai News were going to interview the boss of Bailemen, but coincidentally ran into Lu Yiping, that famous songstress...and well..." He spread his hands.

  Because of Ya Ge and Lu Mengping's affair, Qin Wu also knew about the farce in the Lu family.

  He Huan finally stopped hesitating and directly abandoned Lu Ruping and Lu Yiping to confirm their relationship. Wang Xueqin and Wei Guangxiong's relationship was also exposed, and Li Shuoguan's family, who had been driven out of the house by her, and Fu Wenpei found out. It was indeed a big show, one after another. This is also one of the reasons why Yage wants to take Mengping away from Shanghai.

  Having such relatives is really too troublesome!

  It's just that the Lu Mengping Yaqi looked at was still a normal person, otherwise they would not let Yaqi marry her even if they were dead.

  "It's really... " Yage frowned, "Qin Wu, I have a favor to ask of you. Before Mengping and I leave Shanghai, try not to let the matter with Wang Xueqin and Wei Guangxiong be exposed. If something happens to the Lu family after we leave... if you can help, please do, otherwise it's fine."

  No matter what, Wang Xueqin is still Lu Mengping's mother and a relatively normal-thinking person, so Yage doesn't mind giving her some appropriate help.

  "Don't worry, it's none of your mother-in-law's business anyway. The brothers who stay in Shanghai will take care of it." Qin Wu nodded in agreement to Yage's request.

  As for that "Black Panther", the brothers didn't think much of him. He left his wife and children behind, took two concubines and escaped to Shanghai, still acting as a commander, what a shame. And Wang Xueqin this woman... although they weren't too fond of her giving Lu Zhenhua a green hat, her straightforward and bold personality was quite in line with their character. So if they were to offer her some help, they wouldn't refuse.

  "Qin Wu, from now on Shanghai is yours." Yage said with a hint of desolation in his tone that only he himself could sense.

  Lu Mengping became the most enviable girl in all of Shanghai, and under everyone's blessings, she became Mrs. Murong. Due to being busy preparing for her marriage, Wang Xueqin didn't bother her with family matters, and Ya Ge wouldn't go out of her way to find trouble for herself.

  Lu Mengping thus became a happy member of the Murong family, eagerly looking forward to the day she would go to America, completely unaware of the drama between her two sisters over one man. At this time, He Shuhuan discovered Lu Yiping's diary and dejectedly headed to the Suide battlefield, with Lu Ruping crazily following him.

  The day I left Shanghai, only Wang Xueqin from Lu's family came to see me off at the dock.

  Although Lu Mengping was a bit disappointed, she heard that Lu Yu Hao had become a war correspondent and Lu Mengping had become a war nurse. After Lu Zhenhua worried so much that he didn't want to go out, he also expressed his understanding and concern, and asked Wang Xueqin to take good care of herself. She would call them and write letters.

  A month of living in the air would be unbearable for anyone, not just Lu Mengping, but also Yage was about to reach her limit. The child had already lost all spirit. Fortunately, after setting foot on New York soil, the four of them finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had previously sent their butler and some servants to the United States as advance scouts, so when they returned home in America, they could rest and recover properly.

  Yahiko's life in the US was very busy, as he had many things to do. He contacted various merchants, purchased all kinds of materials, and managed his own business, but no matter how busy he was, he would always take time out to spend with his little wife.

  Mengping is very understanding of her husband. She is also busy learning and absorbing various knowledge, quickly passing the language barrier and even applying to school on her own.

  Cui Ping was having some trouble adapting to life in the US, but seeing how lively and happy Hua'er was adapting so well, she couldn't bring herself to say that she wanted to return home.

  When the lives of the people in the United States were on track, the news from home was getting more and more severe. First, there was the July 7th Incident, followed by the Battle of Shanghai. Cuiping didn't say anything but was secretly worried about Mei Ruohong, while Lu Mengping was extremely anxious.

  At first, she could still contact the Lu family, but later even phone calls couldn't get through. It was at this time that she also couldn't arbitrarily say she wanted to go back because she was pregnant.

  When Ya Ge left Shanghai, he had already made arrangements for her to settle down and prepare for childbirth. By the time she gave birth to their eldest son, the eight-year war of resistance against Japan had already begun domestically. In such a chaotic environment, how could she possibly bring her own son back to suffer?

  Thus, time flies by swiftly.

  When Meng Ping followed Ya Ge back to Shanghai again, her grandchildren were already in college.

  Looking at the Lu family's old mansion which has become a cultural relic, Mengping's eyes welled up with tears.

  This time back, Lu Zhenhua and Wang Xueqin were already gone, but she found Ru Ping and Er Jie, whose current life is not very good but also not bad.

  He Shuhuan ultimately chose Lu Yiping, and Lu Ruping married Du Fei.

  The post-marital life of these two couples was quite ordinary. Lu Yiping was not well received by He Shuhuan's parents, and He Shuhuan was caught in the middle, finding it difficult to cope. However, after the civil war, they all went to Taiwan, and now they have reconnected with Ruyi and her family, although they don't interact much.

  Du Fei's impulsive personality didn't change much after marriage, and this trait caused him a lot of suffering during the special period that followed. Fortunately, he still managed to get through it with Ru Ping, and their later years were not bad.

  As for Lu Erjie... At the beginning, Wang Xueqin and Wei Guangxiong's affair was exposed by Lu Yiping, everything went as in the original work, the only difference is that at a critical moment, Qin Wu's subordinate saved Wang Xueqin and Lu Erjie. This was his promise to Ya Ge back then, he kept it.

  Wang Xueqin's plan wasn't just for show, she secretly returned to the Lu residence and dug up some money and jewelry that had been buried, taking Lu Erjie with her as they left Shanghai. Although their life couldn't compare to the Lu family's, at least they could guarantee a warm meal. Lu Erjie finally grew up, he was no longer the heartless and careless little fatty, even in the most difficult times, he didn't give up on his studies. Among the Lu siblings, Lu Erjie was considered the most successful, now a honorary professor at Fudan University.

  As for Lu Ruo Hao, no one knows where he went.

  At first, Deputy Li's family also moved to the Lu family's mansion to take care of the orphans together. After he and Fang Yu got married, they would occasionally visit with their child, Li Keyun. One day, they left with Fang Yu. At that time, Lu Yiping and others didn't think about looking for them, and they lost contact again.

  Just as Mengping and her siblings were sitting together in a daze, Mei Hua had gone to Hangzhou alone. The former Shuiyunjian was nowhere to be seen.

  She didn't know why she had to come here, but before Cui Ping passed away, she was also obsessed with this place, so after returning to the country, she didn't go with her uncle, but chose this place as the first stop with her husband.

  "John, I really don't understand what that true love stuff is all about." At first, Uncle didn't tell Cuiping the outcome of those people who went crazy for love, but he told her.

  After divorcing his mother, Mei Ruohong still couldn't make a choice. On one hand, there was the woman who had helped him so much over the years and was now pregnant with his child; on the other hand, there was the true love of his life, with whom he shared a deep spiritual connection and couldn't bear to give up - why couldn't they both be his wives?

  The war came soon after. Wang Ziyu had a miscarriage while hiding from the Japanese army, and in the end, Wang's parents managed to get the children out. Du Xuan was also controlled by her father, and one day, the whole family disappeared from Hangzhou City.

  Only Meiyu Hong still guards his Shuiyunjian.

  It's also, how could the Japanese army look up to such a shabby and impoverished Water Cloud Temple? Mei Ruo Hong was lucky enough to escape. However, without the support of the Wang family and without Du Xuanxuan's food smuggled from home, he ended up starving to death in Water Cloud Temple.

  Plum Blossom Painting didn't know why Emerald Screen was so fixated on such a husband, she and her mother had never been on the same wavelength, but that didn't stop her from loving her mother.

  She was always grateful to her uncle. If it hadn't been for her uncle finding them in the mountains, she had no idea what would have become of her and her mother.

  "True love is like Uncle and Auntie, and us." Mei's American husband said with a smile beside her. He wouldn't disturb his wife's reminiscence of the past, but he also didn't want her to be too heartbroken.

  "Well said."

  Whispering softly close to her husband's chest, even though he is no longer as majestic and upright as he was at first, the sense of security he brings to her remains unchanged.

  Yage stepped onto the top of the Oriental Pearl Tower with ease, gazing out at the bustling city of Shanghai. He took a deep breath in.

  Even if he didn't change history, Huaxia still rose in the East!

  It is he who takes himself too seriously.

  Even if he has powers that ordinary people don't have, in the long river of history, he is just one of the many.

  He should give up some of his eccentricities and concerns.

  At that moment, Yage felt that the depression that had been rampant in her chest suddenly disappeared, replaced by a sense of relief and joy.

  It turned out that he had been suppressing himself all along.
