451 Not Your Fault
Now, he felt that he owed his family even more seeing all the wasted potential that was lost because of him in his previous life..
Especially Sanfu.
When he was studying, Sanfu worked hard everyday to earn money for him. When he made it big, Sanfu didn’t even enjoy a day’s worth of fortune. He was worried and insisted on secretly protecting him all the time. In the end, he even took an arrow for him and died. However, Xue Yan only cared about the people, the court, the Emperor, and Da Ling. He always ignored Sanfu and definitely ignored the other people in the family.
If he hadn’t been reborn again to find out his family’s lives revolved around him, he probably wouldn’t have realized this.
In the past, he thought that he knew Sanfu very well, but now he was proven wrong.
Xue Yan’s lips trembled.
Jiang Yue was silent when she saw him like this, but she still said in a voice that only he could hear, “I don’t know what happened, but I don’t think it’s your fault.”
In other words, she wanted Xue Yan to know that he didn’t have to take all the blame.
“You don’t understand,” Xue Yan said with a bitter smile and didn’t say anything else.
Jiang Yue did not know what to say. She could tell that he was the one who believed that he was the cause of all the bad things that happened in his family’s past life.
However, to what extent was it so that he had to be so determined to suffer alone in this life?
Was it because everyone in the family had a tragic ending?
If that was the case, then it really wouldn’t be easy to get out of the dark place he was in.
After some thought, Jiang Yue finally cut the silence. “Sanfu can ride it well.”
He could tell that she was trying to comfort him, it was like telling him that he had been reborn and given a second chance. No matter what happened in his previous life, he could have a new life in this one. Xue Yan’s throat was stuck, so he only nodded with a faint smile.
Sure enough, it didn’t take long for Sanfu to find the trick and ride the horse steadily. He didn’t even tremble and was especially confident after a few rounds.
When the horse seller saw this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. At least he didn’t have to worry about the person getting injured. If something happened here, it would not be good regardless of whether he was responsible or not.
Although Xue Sanfu had steadied himself, he wasn’t in a hurry to get off the horse. Instead, he had the horse run a few rounds around the track. The way it galloped was particularly dazzling.
Then, he stopped the horse and sat firmly on it. He let the whip hang down in a relaxed manner, allowing the horse to walk towards Xue Yan and Jiang Yue step by step.
That whole set up made him look more like a great general that had triumphantly returned!
“This.” Xue Sanfu stopped his horse in front of the fence where Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were standing, but he still didn’t get off the horse. His voice was still indifferent and expressionless, making him look quite cold. All he did was nod after that one word.
“Yes.” Jiang Yue turned around and said to the horse seller, “How much is this?”
The horse seller was a little surprised that such a small girl would ask for the specific price of the horse, but he still answered robotically, “This horse is sixty-five silver, fixed price. If you want this saddle, it is five silver, so it’ll add up to seventy silver. If you don’t want the saddle, that’s fine too. Then you can only go to the blacksmith to make a saddle. Actually, it also costs that much money and is troublesome. Anyway, you can choose for yourself.”
“The last time my brother came here to buy a cow, you didn’t give him a fixed price, plus it was a few hundred coins cheaper. You even told him that you would give him a lower price the next time he comes,” Jiang Yue said calmly.
When the horse seller heard this, he immediately became excited. “Was he the one with the phoenix-looking eyes, but when he smiles, he looks a little like a fox, and is extremely shrewd at first glance?”
