Chapter 21: The Deathbed Talk
After the head of the household and his wife came out of the bedroom, they looked at Yun Xi and said, "Yun Xi, go in and accompany your mother-in-law!
Yun Xi nodded, "Uncle Household Chief, you and Aunt Amy should go back first! It's not too early this day, I can do it alone!" After speaking, he walked silently to the bedroom.
The head of the household and his wife shook their heads and slowly walked towards their house.
As soon as Yun Xi entered the bedroom, he saw Si Xue half-leaning on the bed, although he had lost a lot of weight, his spirit seemed to be very good.
"Yunxi, sit closer!" Seeing Yunxi coming in, Si Xuebu hurriedly pointed to the position next to the bed.
Yun Xi saw that she took the initiative to speak, and walked over in two steps, she carefully took Si Xue's hand and sat down on the edge of the bed, "Mother-in-law, are you hungry?
"Mother-in-law won't eat it! Mother-in-law wants to talk to you!" Si Xue said kindly.
Yun Xi nodded, looking up to meet Si Xue's eyes.
"Girl! Actually, I'm not your own grandmother!I'm sorry! I haven't told you the truth for so many years!" Si Xue was silent for a while before he said this.
"I know! I guessed it when you only asked me to call you mother-in-law! But you raised me for the past twelve years! This is no different from my own grandmother!" Yun Xi said softly.
Si Xueleng was stunned, Yun Xi already knew, then this girl is too calm!
"Mother-in-law, do you know where my relatives are, why don't they want me anymore?" asked Yun Xi with red eyes.
Si Xue looked at the girl in front of him, slowly pulled out his hand and touched her cheek and said, "No one doesn't want you! You were rescued by someone, and the person who rescued you said that your parents are no longer there, and he handed you over to me to raise because of other things!"
"Then how did my parents die?" Yun Xi continued.
"You should have died in the insect tide! Don't blame them, it's not that they don't want you, you know? Your name is still the one who saved you! Will you blame your mother-in-law for hiding from you for so many years?"
Yun Xi shook his head, "How could it be! Logically speaking, you are my savior! Raised me so much and taught me so much knowledge! How could I blame you!"
"Girl, my mother-in-law also knows that there will be a few days to live! In the future, you will live alone! Although you are already twelve years old, you are a big girl, but you have little experience and do not know the sinister nature of this world!
Mother-in-law tells you! The most difficult thing in the world to understand is the human heart! The most terrifying thing is also the human heart! However, it is the human heart that you trust the most! Do you understand?"
"I don't understand! Mother-in-law! I know you're good to me, so I want to be nice to you! I know you've been trying to teach me a lot of things in the past two years, but I'm afraid I'll suffer, right! But you've taught me too much! I don't know what to do!" Yun Xi said with a wry smile.
Si Xue was stunned for a moment, and thought for a while before making a decision, "Don't care how much your mother-in-law taught you! You just remember one thing! When you don't take the initiative to hurt others, if anyone wants to hurt you, you can fight back! There is no need to be a good person!"
I can see clearly, what is not lacking in the world is the good people who keep saying it! Good people let others do it, you just need to be an ordinary person!"
Yun Xi nodded as if he didn't understand, "I know! It's just that the book says that if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, and if people offend me, I will offend people!"
"That's what it means! You must remember it!" Si Xue nodded with satisfaction.
"And the most important thing! You must hide it, you know? No matter where you are, there is a rule, until you have absolute strength, you will always shoot the first bird! When there are many people, the more mediocre you are, the better! The less noticeable you are, the better!"
Yun Xi has long understood this, and she has understood this since she was excluded from the first exam in her class for the first time, so she deliberately makes one or two wrong questions every time she takes the exam, and just keeps herself in the top three every time!
Sure enough, it was the first place who was excluded, and he was the most popular person in the class!
After saying this, Si Xue took off the bracelet on his wrist again, and then put it on Yun Xi himself.
"This must be put away! You will be of great use in the future! Mother-in-law won't hide it from you, this is a space bracelet, it was given to me by someone else, there are few outside, there may be a lot of things inside!
I've put all the books I showed you here! When you grow up and have the ability to open them yourself, you'll know the benefits of this thing, so wear them as an ornament now!"
This is something that can only be seen in the newspaper, I heard that it was researched by people in the school palace, and few people in the entire federation have it, but my mother-in-law has!
What is the identity of the mother-in-law? Who is herself? Who is the person who saved herself? These questions all got into Yunxi's head!
Seeing that Yun Xi was stunned, Si Xue also knew what she was thinking, she touched her wrist and said, "Don't think about it so much! You are still young now! When you grow up in the future, you will know it slowly! Remember your mother-in-law's words! You must go to the school palace to study! Everything you want to know is there!"
"Can't you tell me now?" Yun Xi asked rhetorically.
"It's not good for you to know too early! What you want to think about now is how you should live after I die! Although the Government Council has a certain amount of subsidies for orphans, it will also be enough for food and clothing, although I have saved some star coins in the past few years, it is not enough for you to spend a lifetime! The road in the future is that you will go by yourself!" Si Xue handed out a money bag and handed it to Yun Xi.
"I can do it myself! Anyway, I planted all these vegetables at home, and I can grow them in the future! Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will take care of myself! If there is anything, I will go to the head of the household!"
I don't know what's going on, after listening to Si Xue say so much, the original sense of sadness and helplessness in Yun Xi's heart seems to have suddenly become less obvious, as if Si Xue is just leaving for a while, and he is just living alone for a while.
"Okay, mother-in-law believes in you! You are so smart, you must be able to live a good life! Remember! You must study hard! You know?" Si Xue told again.
Yun Xi nodded heavily, she will definitely go to the School Palace!
Seeing Yun Xi like this, Si Xue seemed to have finally completed a task, she lay back down, and after talking for so long, the physical consumption was still very large, plus she hadn't eaten for almost a week, and there was obviously a bit of a gold star in front of her.
"Yunxi, go to the cabinet and take out your mother-in-law's dark green clothes!" Si Xue gasped vigorously twice before continuing to speak.
Yun Xi hurriedly opened the cabinet where Si Xue's clothes were often placed, and took out a set of dark green dresses with gold patterns from the innermost!
Si Xue touched this set of clothes, and suddenly smiled, "It should be too big to wear this now! No matter, it's a new dress anyway, and you always have to wear it once in your life!" I hope it's not too ugly!"
Yun Xi listened inexplicably, "Mother-in-law, this is your favorite clothes?"
"Yes, I've never worn it, how about helping my mother-in-law put it on!" Si Xue said with a smile.
Yun Xi nodded, carefully changed the old clothes that Si Xue was wearing, and then carefully put on the new clothes for her.
Touching the loose waist, Si Xue smiled, "It seems that she has really lost weight! This is so much vacant! Yun Xi! Do you look good in this mother-in-law?"
Yun Xi held back her tears and smiled, "It's good-looking! My mother-in-law must have been very beautiful when she was young! Just like what is written in the book, her skin is like cream, her eyes are bright, and her teeth are bright, she must be a beauty!"
"Just your sweet mouth! How can you be so good-looking! When your mother-in-law was young! Even if she was beautiful! And your mother-in-law told you! I was also an orphan! I met a kind person who taught me things and made me learn!
Although there are bad people in this world, there are also good people, and you have to learn to screen them, you know?" Si Xue said with a big gasp.
"I know, mother-in-law, lie down quickly! you will get dizzy if you stand for a long time!" Yun Xi saw that her face was getting more and more pale, and hurriedly helped her to lie down on the bed again.
Si Xue carefully lay down on the bed, she stared at Yun Xi for a long time before saying, "Yun Xi! Mother-in-law is tired, go to sleep first! You also remember to rest, you know? You must live well, you know? Otherwise, your mother-in-law will not worry!"
"Mother-in-law, I'm sure I'll be alive and well! Don't talk! I'm watching you here!"
Si Xue slowly closed his eyes and rested, Yun Xi sat on the edge of the bed until the middle of the night, when he couldn't help but fall asleep on the edge of the bed!
Feeling that Yun Xi was asleep, Si Xue opened her eyes again and touched the head of the girl next to the bed, her mood was complicated, all kinds of emotions came up, she was really reluctant to give up this child!
As bursts of sleepiness came up, Si Xue's consciousness became more and more blurred, and she kept her hand on Yun Xi's head, it's okay, at most in a few years, she should be able to see this girl again in the Xue Palace!
In the early hours of the morning, Yunxi suddenly woke up, she looked at everything in the house blankly, this is her own room, but why does it feel so empty!
She hurriedly raised her eyes to look at the bed, and her mother-in-law, who was wearing dark green new clothes, was lying on the bed with a smile, looking like that, she seemed to be sleeping very deeply!
Yun Xi's heart tightened, and he trembled to grab Si Xue's hand, and sure enough, it was a cold and stiff touch.
She only felt that her eyes were blank, and it took a while to react.
"Uncle Household Chief, Uncle Household Chief!Mother-in-law, Mother-in-law, she is gone!" Yun Xi cried and banged on the door of the household chief's house, and the painful scream alarmed the neighbors around her!
