Chapter 103 Showdown
Su Yiqing couldn't think of how to face Mrs. Zhou, so she simply didn't think about it. Since she had nothing to say, why should she meet? What could she say about a person who was determined to kill her? She didn't think that Mrs. Zhou would easily admit her mistakes.
Since that's the case, why do you still have to meet? Say something you may not believe in? She will leave the house in three days, and she will be busy with a lot of things. The people in the mansion also disagree with her leaving the house at this time. However, due to Xu's usual harshness and the grievances she suffered during this period, no one dares to say it.
Su Yiqing rejected Xu's request. In front of Madam Li who came from the palace, Madam Xu originally wanted to say something. Madam Li interrupted that Madam Zhou was seriously ill and her granddaughter should go and see her. However, if she had a happy day, it would be bad. Fortunately, Madam Zhou was not only one granddaughter, and letting Brother Xu and his wife take the child to see it can comfort the old man. I think Madam Zhou was also confused and made such a request. If something really happened, the old man would definitely blame himself.
What Madam Li said makes sense, not to mention that she came from the palace. Although Xu was so arrogant, she was still a little bit awe of the people in the palace and could only give up.
On the second day, Xu returned from Yongxiang Bo Mansion, and his eyes were a little complaining. When she thought of her mother on the hospital bed, she felt a little dissatisfied. It was not difficult to go to Yongxiang Hou Mansion. Although there are many things now, her daughter shouldn't be like this. The mother is so kind to them. The old man is sick or small, so it's unreasonable not to go and see it.
However, as the wedding became closer, Su Yiqing's house was surrounded by a bunch of people at any time. Relatives and friends who were not close to each other also came to the house. After all, it was a marriage granted by the imperial family, and if they did not give face to Yuanping's mansion, they would have to give face to the royal family.
From morning to night, Xu did not find the opportunity to talk to Su Yiqing alone. He could not mention his mother's illness and miss his granddaughter in a bunch of congratulations from relatives and friends.
Another day later, Su Yiqing spent the last night in Yuanping Bo’s Mansion as a girl. The next night, she would no longer stay in Ping Bo’s Mansion. As a mother, Xu had to teach her daughter something and say something thoughtful.
I don’t know why, Xu originally had a lot to say to his daughter, but after getting along alone, he came into contact with his daughter’s eyes and thought of his mother on the hospital bed. Suddenly, he felt no more emotion and reluctantly finished what he should say. She couldn’t help saying: “Daughter, it’s a pity that your grandmother is seriously ill and cannot come to you to marry in person. She kept mentioning you. After getting married, you should go and see your grandmother more.”
The last night was coming. Su Yiqing was very confused, but she didn't know who to tell her this kind of confusion. Now Xu mentioned Mrs. Zhou again. To be honest, she didn't plan to see Mrs. Zhou more in the future. If possible, it would be better not to see her for the rest of her life.
When Xu talked about husband and wife, Su Yiqing always looked shy with her head down, and now it's the same. But Xu Shimin felt that she had noticed something.
It is said that tea is cold when people leave. Is it because my mother is seriously ill that even the daughter who is about to get married dislikes her grandmother?
Most women are sensitive, and Xu is the same. She noticed Su Yiqing's emotional changes towards Mrs. Zhou. She originally wanted to endure it, but after her daughter became a monk, she would talk about it. But now she mentioned that Mrs. Zhou was seriously ill and her daughter was indifferent. It was really not necessary.
Xu couldn't help but say, "Daughter, I know this marriage has made you wronged, but your grandmother is also racking her efforts to think about you. Shouldn't you blame her?"
After hearing this, Su Yiqing looked at Xu in surprise. Xu continued, "If you really married far away, it would be a bad thing. But now you can stay in the capital and have your own princess's mansion. No matter how much you are, you will be a hundred times better than the Cen family. Besides, your grandmother would never have thought that such a change would happen back then. The old man is also kind-hearted."
Su Yiqing couldn't help it. At this point, does Mrs. Zhou still distort the facts? Since that's the case, she no longer hides it. She hopes that after marriage, she will no longer be bothered by the past. She said, "Mother, do you still remember Brother Ming?"
When Xu heard this, he immediately pulled his face down. In this family, what she didn't want to hear the most was about the woman in the past and everything about that woman, especially Su Jinming. She became the biggest suspect. Many people are still talking about her behind her back, and they don't know if Su Jinming had a lustful heart. She was really wronged to die.
"Mother, Brother Ming's work was made by her grandmother, which she admitted in person." Su Yiqing looked at Xu, whose eyes were wide open, and said softly, "Mother, I will get married tomorrow. As a daughter, I know I'm not doing well, but I really tried my best."
Su Yiqing stood up while talking, knelt down slowly, and kowtowed three times to Xu. Since ancient people liked to kowtow, she would also go to Sui Township.
Xu was shocked by what Su Yiqing said, and before he could support Su Yiqing, he was shocked by Su Yiqing's three resounding sounds.
She suddenly became sad, and tears couldn't stop flowing down her eyes. She inexplicably thought of the conflict between Su Yiqing and Mrs. Cen, and the puzzled eyes of Su Yiqing afterwards. From that time on, she realized that there was a deep gap between herself and her daughter, and she wanted to make up for it.
She asked herself that she was worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth. Su Jinming was indeed not her. Her daughter would finally understand one day, but she never expected that the truth was like this.
Xu asked himself that he was not a kind person, but when he heard about this, he couldn't help but breathe a breath, remembering his daughter's hatred for the master before, and she couldn't say anything.
After Xu left, Su Yiqing sighed softly, and Ming Xiner tidied up the bed to prepare for bed.
After Xin'er finished everything, she looked at Su Yiqing with a little indulgence but stopped.
Su Yiqing smiled faintly: "If you have something to say, you can say it. It doesn't matter whether you or me will offend me now. You don't have to worry about saying something wrong will make me disgusted."
When he was talking to Xu just now, Xin'er was serving outside. People were curious. Even if this girl was unintentional to eavesdrop, she could hear a few words.
Xin'er gritted her teeth and stepped forward and said, "Princess, although Mrs. Zhou has done something too much, she is also for the sake of the princess and the third wife. Now that she is so sick, why do you have to tell the matter out? It will be useless to say it, and it will make the third wife anxious together..."
Xin'er didn't finish her words, probably the last two words weren't very nice, so she didn't dare to say them out.
Su Yiqing looked at her and said contemptuously: "Ignorance is so happy! Living in your own dream is always much easier than living in reality. I'm so sorry, I'm going to expose your dream again. I know that the snake was attracted by you."
Xin'er was shocked. No matter how Zhao Boyang forced her to force her, she didn't tell me half of the story. How did the princess know about this? She always thought that the princess hated her because of Brother Ming's affairs, and she didn't expect that the princess would know the truth.
"If you don't know, don't do it unless you want others." Su Yiqing glanced at her and said, "Do you think I'd keep you by my side because I'm caring for the past friendship, but I can't help you? I'm telling you clearly now that I'm keeping you because I think I'm a fire pit and don't want to drag more innocent people in. It's good to use you to fill in the pit. Not to mention the past, even now, I still feel that the road ahead is slim, so I've kept you."
"Princess, the grandmother has no choice but to force her..." Xin'er looked extremely panicked and wanted to try her best to explain.
"I'm telling you a fact that you may not want to know even more." Su Yiqing interrupted Xin'er mercilessly and said coldly, "I don't know if the antidote given to you by Mrs. Zhou is effective, but I can tell you that I will also feed you the poison. In order to get this medicine, I took a great risk. As for what the risk is, you don't need to know, and I won't tell you, so as not to bite me again."
"Princess, I will never repay the princess if I die." Xin'er knelt on the ground crying.
Su Yiqing said coldly: "Put your crying face, whether it's true or false, you can do what you should do in the future. But if you dare to play any tricks behind your back, you just don't care. Anyway, I will have many enemies in the future. If you don't want to die at your hands, I won't be wronged."
Xin'er dared not cry anymore. On this happy day, she shouldn't have shed tears. She couldn't help it just now. Now that she was scolded like this, she shrank back.
Everything was silent. Su Yiqing lay on the carved bed, looking at the lotus embroidered on the top of the mosquito net, and recalling the little things she had traveled through.
It was like a dream, but this dream was still a long time since I woke up.
Tomorrow she will lie on another more luxurious bed, next to her a strange man she had never met.
This is another unknown fate.
She didn't want to expose everything about Mrs. Zhou, which made Xu confused, but she couldn't hold it over and bear it alone. When welcoming a new round of challenges in fate, she had to be careful about what other tricks Mrs. Zhou would do. Even if Mrs. Zhou sincerely regretted it, it was not her who could forgive Mrs. Zhou. After all, she was not the one who was hurt the most.
But since she wanted to put aside everything, she looked at Xin'er who was lying on her feet and sighed: "Xiner, are you asleep?"
"Princess, I don't have water yet. Do you want to drink water or do anything?" Xin'er got up in a daze.
"No, I just can't sleep... I want to ask you, what do you think if I say I'll give you a chance and let you go out of the house? I will make good arrangements so that people think you have angered me, so I was demoted from the house, just like Madam Zhou." Su Yiqing thought a lot just now. Mrs. Zhou's illness may not be fake, so Xin'er will be subject to her and will not be too long. (To be continued.
