Chapter 103: Looking Back at the Hundred Years (3)
Originally, Alyssa Deng thought that no one else knew about this past except herself. So it's more like an unrealistic dream hidden deep inside her.
Whenever others praised her, she would occasionally say melancholy: "If I hadn't given up kendo at the beginning, maybe I would be the core disciple of the eight major forces now." Others will think she is joking, and they will also make some jokes, and then they will praise her husband for marrying how capable she is, and how rich the Xinxiye family is. Gradually, as the days passed, she really thought she was laughing, as if she was anesthetized, and when she remembered the past, she would not be so painful.
However, Su Yunjin's words broke her self-deception anesthesia, and made her clearly realize how wrong the decision she made in the first place, how she failed her talent, and how small and insignificant the one she has worked so hard to obtain now.
She should have been a person at the same level as Jiang Shaoming and Han Mubai, but now, she has fallen into the stepfamily of the realm lord of a small world, not to mention that she can't have her own heirs, and she has to worry every day to ensure her status.
Deng Jingwen did not question Su Yunjin's identity because of this incident. In her opinion, the actions of a group of four people eight hundred years ago were not secret, and it was normal to be seen by others along the way. Although Su Yunjin was also in the Jiawu Secret Realm at that time, she was somewhat unexpected, but she obviously didn't have the heart to take care of this.
"Why did you deliberately make yourself look like a middle-aged person? Is it to be more compatible with your husband in terms of appearance? Jiang Shaoming and Han Mubai are still very young. Su Yunjin asked.
The cultivators on the Yunshan Continent generally have a lifespan of several thousand years, so according to this time scale, Jiang Shaoming and Han Mubai, who are only over eight hundred years old, are still in the most energetic youth of cultivators, and they are worthy of the adjective young.
"I-" Deng Jingwen was speechless.
Facing Su Yunjin, who knew so many details, Deng Jingwen suddenly felt like she had been seen through by others. The status of the stepwife of the realm lord, whom she often flaunted in front of her little sisters, was no longer an honor, but a deep shame.
She finally couldn't bear this sudden psychological imbalance anymore, screamed loudly, turned and fled.
And what Su Yunjin sighed in his heart was another thing.
is different from Deng Jingwen's appearance to recognize people, a monk of this level like Su Yunjin. But it is to distinguish others through the differences in the characteristics of the senses. Therefore, although 800 years have passed, she can still find a few traces of the heroic posture belonging to the female cultivator who was proficient in the swordsmanship of the Yue Nu in front of her from the graceful and luxurious middle-aged beauty in front of her.
She has been getting along with Ye Zhuoqing day and night these days, and she has also heard a lot of news about Deng Jingwen from the mouthpiece of the housekeeper Chen Yi.
In Chen Yi's mouth, Deng Jingwen is so scheming. is so lucky, the story between her and Ye Zhuoqing's father is completely the history of a scheming woman who is at the bottom of society and has nothing to do except her looks. Although Chen Yi can't be considered rude to her, it is completely superficial, and in private he is the same as Ye Zhuoqing. thinks that Deng Jingwen is not worthy of Ye Zhuoqing's father at all, Ye Zhuoqing's father married her as a stepmother, and he was completely hot-headed and blind.
"According to them, I thought that Mrs. Ye was a stubborn stone without opening her mind, and rotten wood could not be carved, but now it seems that it was once a good and beautiful material, a jade, and a pearl, but she has been climbing and rolling in the big dye vat for many years. It became a fish eye completely. Su Yunjin secretly sighed in his heart.
"Madame! Madam! Chen Yi chased out, saw Deng Jingwen disappearing quickly, came back, and asked Su Yunjin cautiously, "Madame really walked with Jiang Shaoming and Han Mubai?" It's not a joke! ”
"Absolutely." Su Yunjin replied solemnly.
Chen Yi looked at Su Yunjin for a long time, and finally sighed. Su Yunjin's shining appearance these days made him completely convinced of this somewhat mysterious woman.
"I believe in you." He said, "It's a pity. ”
As for what it is, Chen Yi will not say it. No matter what Alyssa Deng was in the past and how amazing and brilliant her qualifications were, she was always in the opposite position of Chen Yi.
Chen Yi is a loyal servant brought to the Ye family by Ye Zhuoqing's mother. I will never have any good impression of the person who has no background and has simply and rudely replaced my own miss, and I will not think that my own miss's uncle, that is, Ye Zhuoqing's father, will not be worthy of Deng Jingwen.
"Even if I walked with Jiang Shaoming and Han Mubai in the past, what's the big deal?" Chen Yi told himself in his heart. "It's not completely deserted, not even a finger of others! Knowing this news, what I should be more worried about is whether this lady has ever cuckolded our aunt. Our young lady treats her uncle wholeheartedly, what qualifications does she have to be half-hearted? ”
Compared with Chen Yi, Ye Zhuoqing is more public.
He looked at the direction where Deng Jingwen disappeared for a long time. Cai Yi said happily: "I didn't expect this woman to be so big." I had underestimated her before. ”
Su Yunjin didn't answer, the room was silent for a while, and Ye Zhuoqing continued slowly: "A woman who is qualified to sit with Jiang Shaoming and Han Mubai must be extraordinary. It's just that how did she end up in our new Xiye family? I used to think that she was absolutely unworthy of her father, but now it seems that she can't think of ......."
"What is worthy of what is not worthy?" Su Yunjin shook his head and retorted, "Accept the reality, she is already your stepmother." What's more, what kind of path you choose, what kind of outcome you have to accept. Maybe she had a good talent in the past, if she persisted, she might be able to become a master like Han Mubai. But in fact, there are many people with good talents, but for one reason or another, or no one has the discernment, or the person himself chooses to give up, the talent they have will fade day by day, and in the end it is not worth mentioning. ”
"If ......" Ye Zhuoqing wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Su Yunjin's strong tone.
"There are no ifs in reality." She said, "Talent is a thing that can be used in and out." Even if she regrets it now and starts over, it won't help. There are not so many regret pills in the world, even if she gives up her current life and identity, reincarnates, and starts over, I am afraid that she will not be able to reach the heights that she could reach back then. ”
"Okay." Ye Zhuoqing quickly accepted Su Yunjin's point of view, "Now, I have a question, please tell me honestly, who are you?" Why know so much? (To be continued.) )
