Qian'er couldn't help muttering: "His inside story in the house is actually seen by the slaves and maids, on the surface, everyone treats him well, but unfortunately he has been sick, so those subordinates who look down on people with dogs will inevitably not respect him behind their backs." But he will definitely get better in the future, as long as he is cured, he will be the real eldest son of the Liu family in the future. ”

The dumb aunt shook her head, "You only know one thing, I'm not talking about this inside story." The real inside story may not even know much about Liu Wan himself. ”

Blink to look at Liu Wan, "To be honest, do you know?"

Liu Wan did not speak.

The dumb aunt sighed and approached him, "Actually, I think it's quite unkind and a little cruel to suddenly tell this inside story." However, time really doesn't allow me to drag it any further. ”

Liu Wan suddenly hugged her arm, "What do you know?"

The dumb aunt felt the little body tremble.

She reached out and hugged him with some pity, and took him into her arms like a child.

If Liu Wan would definitely not allow her to hold herself, she would either struggle or kick and beat, tonight he was suddenly very well-behaved, and the child who was afraid of the cold slipped into the arms of the dumb aunt as if he was seeking warmth.

"Poor child. The dumb aunt sighed. She stroked his face, no longer with jokes and banter, but only love and pity, "You know all this, don't you? I always thought you were just a silly cute and simple little brother, but I didn't expect you to know everything." Tell my sister, when did you find out, how much did you know?"

Liu Wan didn't speak, his little face was close to the arms of the dumb aunt, and he just sat in a daze.

Qian'er looked at Liu Wan, Liu Wan's face turned pale when he heard this, and he sat in a daze, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water from the top of his head.

Qian'er was startled, thinking that he was going to get sick again, so she quickly held his hand, her little hand was cold, and Qian'er was even more nervous: "Little grandma, don't say it again, you see he's scared-"

"I'm not afraid—" Liu Wan interrupted Qian'er, his voice clear and clear, "I know everything." I knew it very early. They all thought I was stupid and didn't know anything, but I wasn't stupid at all, I heard everything. ”

Qian'er was in a fog and couldn't understand what he was going to say.

The dumb aunt listened patiently.

Liu Wan's expression became extremely serious, as if he was no longer the little patient who didn't understand anything about impermanence, but suddenly grew up and became sensible, he was like an adult, his expression and tone were mature only in adults: "In the spring of that year, I overheard her conversation with Liu's mother. Mother Liu asked her if the medicine she gave to Brother Wan would be used this year? Liu's mother said that if the condition continues like this, it will be more and more serious, and it will be troublesome if the master sees the problem. At the time, I didn't care, thinking they were worried about my illness, but when I heard this, I didn't understand. I didn't dare to move, so I kept listening. I heard her say that she should not reduce the dosage a little more, and tell him to live a few more years. ”

He's done.

There was a collective silence.

Qian'er secretly looked at the dumb aunt, and then looked at Liu Wan, she became more and more confused, and felt that she had walked into a fog.

I don't know when Lancao came over, and asked softly: "Little grandma, is the 'she' that Brother Wan said...... Big lady?"

"Yes. The dumb aunt nodded, she took Liu Wan's hand and gently rubbed it with great pity.

The pair of little hands had been scarred, and even the wrists were covered with scars, which were the marks he had bitten with his own teeth when he was sick, and she was shocked when she first saw them, the scars were really new and pressed against the old ones, miserable, layer upon layer, the skin was broken, and even the white bones were exposed. Since taking care of the child by himself, on the one hand, he has replaced his hands with a cloth gagged for every episode, and on the other hand, he has been equipped with a plaster that emollients and muscle-building plasters are applied morning and evening, and now these hands have long since healed their wounds and given birth to new skin, which is soft and smooth to the touch, and the little hands that an eleven-year-old child should have.

"Ah-" Shen'er cried, her voice tinged with horror, "what do you mean, is it ...... Big lady she ...... She ...... "She didn't dare to say it, for fear that she guessed wrong, and it was really difficult to accept the truth."

"It's a terrible truth. The dumb aunt said, "Once, I muttered that there was something strange about your illness. It's just that there is no evidence. Now it seems that my suspicions were not unfounded. The eldest lady is indeed too scheming, and her intentions are really vicious. Wan Ge'er is the first son in the house, and the eldest lady has no son, so Wan Ge'er is the rightful eldest son. However, this eldest son was not born to the eldest wife, but the son of the eldest aunt, so the woman who was the eldest lady of Liufu was naturally uncomfortable. It's entirely possible that she will find ways to assassinate other people's children. It's just that I didn't expect that her methods would be so cruel, that it would be better for a child to endure this kind of madness day after day, year after year, than to directly poison a bag of arsenic. ”

"Little grandma!" shouted several maids at the same time. The voice shuddered.

Qian'er hugged Liu Wan's arm tightly, and her small body shivered in the cold wind like a fallen leaf.

Under the lamplight, tears welled up in her eyes, "I didn't expect Brother Wan to be so pitiful, why didn't you tell us these encounters earlier, you are alone in your heart, how painful it is." ”

Liu Wan smiled bitterly, his expression was painful, it was indeed a very painful and painful thing, but he had been pretending to be alone in his heart for several years.

"It's only been half a year since I met you, and besides, how can I be sure that you are not the person arranged by the eldest wife, and I don't know if you can help me. Besides, if I can't help it, I'll just follow me. If there is one less person who knows about this kind of thing, there will be one less trouble, and there are enough troubles in our house. ”

He stood up suddenly, his eyes shining at the dumb girl, "Until you appear." Your presence has helped me change all that. You have made me feel warm and hopeful. And you, you all really care for me, I actually know this very well. So, so I wanted to say thank you for a long time, but, but...... People are thin-skinned—"

With a smile on his face, he was a little shy, but with tears in his eyes, tears flashed, and his voice was choked, "I thought that my life was like this, sometimes I really wanted to die immediately, there was no hope in life, I was tormented by such a strange disease day and night, I was really better than dead." But you appeared, especially you, stinky daughter-in-law, your appearance was like a dream, sometimes I woke up in the morning and didn't want to get up, I didn't dare to open my eyes, I was afraid that I wouldn't see you when I opened my eyes, I was afraid that all this was just a dream I had - you are gone, you are gone, I am still the sick child who stays with the eldest lady-"

The dumb aunt patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be sad, it's all over - believe me, it's all over, like a nightmare, now that you're awake, in the days to come, there will be only sunshine and warmth, and there will be no more nightmares like this to torment you." ”

Qian'er wiped her tears and cried very sadly.

The dumb aunt nodded: "Poor child, you are so sensible." It was so surprising to me. But I'm also glad that you're far more mature and strong than I expected, which is a good thing, so that I can leave you with more peace of mind. ”

Liu Wan was taken aback, and hugged the dumb aunt's arm again: "Where are you going? You won't leave, will you? Just talk about scaring me, right? I won't pretend to be sick to scare you anymore." I've been well for a long time. The last time I faked my illness, I was trying to scare you. ”

Lancao and Shen'er have been listening quietly.

Hearing this, Shen'er shouted, "Brother Wan'er, you really pretended to be sick? You scared us to death, do you know? You are too unkind, do you know how much effort the little grandmother has put into your illness? You will not be allowed to do this in the future." ”

Liu Wan gently broke free from the arms of the dumb aunt and looked at the side of the screen, "You all rest assured, no more." I want to grow up quickly and be a real man. Protect you in the future, and never want you to suffer a little grievance. ”

The dumb aunt suddenly stretched out her hand, lightly punched him in the stomach, and scolded with a smile: "That's right, you should have grown up a long time ago - from tonight, from the beginning of not wetting the bed——"

Asa burst into laughter and sneered.

The atmosphere that had been unusually heavy was finally relaxed.
