The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1609 - 1696: Human Kindness

In the past couple of years, Shu Yu’s character has changed somewhat. This change is not obvious, it happens subconsciously, gradually altering without people noticing.

Since childhood, he was inclined to be introverted due to his frail health. Living long in such a gloomy and frustrating environment, to prevent his brothers from worrying, many of his thoughts were buried in his heart, rarely spoken aloud. At that time, he was too indifferent, and this coldness came from the heart. Although not entirely keeping people at a distance, it wasn’t far from it.

He rarely expressed his thoughts; he was always alone in experiencing that dull pain.

The formation of character is partly due to innate inheritance, while the rest depends on acquired development. Previously, people felt Shu Yu was like a wisp of cloud at the edge of the sky. Beautiful and ethereal, yet lacking a bit of human warmth.

However, since his health gradually improved, even though habits developed over more than twenty years made him appear outwardly gentle and calm, seemingly a very tranquil and aloof person, this was not the case.

As soon as he saw the hope for life, he began to step out of his originally closed small world. He became extroverted.

For example, when he accompanied Dong Huiying to Jiangnan, when Dong Huiying was busy with other matters, he was bored and would carry a guqin out every day. He claimed it was to find amusement for himself, skilled at arranging his life to be fulfilling, and it was through this that he met Yi Ran.

Being willing to make new acquaintances was already a significant progress.

Shu Yu’s extroversion, though not as outwardly visible as Shujun’s, undeniably, no matter how calm and detached he seemed now, he had really become more and more like a person.

Moreover, the brothers of the Liang family inherently had an ailment. That is, being extremely sentimental.

Shu Yu considered Bai Xian as his friend, but in the end, he realized that this friendship might be one-sided, and he was quite hurt. But before returning home, he quickly adjusted his mindset to prevent his family from worrying about him due to his own mood problems. He knew that if he appeared worried, it would not only make him depressed but also affect the mood of his wife-master, and he didn’t want that.

Perhaps... his character already had an element of self-sacrifice. Just like when he was ill before.

No matter how difficult, no matter how painful, he endured it all alone. And at the core, it was all for one reason.

He didn’t want his family to worry about him, nor did he want those he cared about to be concerned about him. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Due to various reasons in the first half of his life, Shu Yu had very few friends. Besides these brothers at home, just looking at these past few years, the only ones he considered "friends" were Yi Ran and this Bai Xian.

Previously, Bai Xian followed the Eighth Princess, then was injured after an attack on the Eighth Princess. These two events happened one after another, and he couldn’t adjust his feelings in time, inevitably revealing some of them. This incident directly affected his wife-master and other brothers.

Shu Yu reflected on his actions, thinking he was wrong, so even though he was in a poor mood tonight, he left all his troubles outside before returning home.

In this process, he realized one thing.

When to do what things.

For instance, at home, focus on accompanying the wife-master, not worrying about other matters, and when leaving home, then get busy with whatever he wanted to get busy with.
