Chapter 390: Reunion
The next day, Su Qiubai got up early in the morning and went to the mayor's office and told Ouyang Dong about Anya's agreement to be the owner of the martial arts hall.
Hearing this news, Ouyang Dong didn't look very happy, because in this way, his desire to make Su Qiubai the owner of the hall was completely shattered.
"You kid, make me feel like a wicked person who is forced to be a prostitute! I don't know what you're thinking. Ouyang Dong said helplessly.
Su Qiubai said with a smile: "I know that the mayor is kind, but I can only understand this kindness." Don't worry, I will go to the martial arts hall to help teach the disciples according to my previous promise, so who is the master of the hall is actually not a big difference. ”
At this point, Ouyang Dong couldn't say anything more, so he nodded and said, "Anyway, this matter has finally been settled." The site of the martial arts hall has already been put into construction, and it will be completed in a few months. In the past two months, the relevant person in charge has received a lot of application materials, all of which are to compete for the position of martial arts teacher. We don't know anything about it, so we don't know who to choose, so we're going to have to trouble you. ”
This is not a big deal, so Su Qiubai agreed in one bite.
After leaving the mayor's office, Su Qiubai had nothing to do, so he first went to Ouyang Dongsu's martial arts hall address and took a turn. Because the place of cultivation requires quietness the most, the address of this martial arts hall is set on a vacant land in the southern suburbs of Jianghai City, which is far away from the city, so it can be regarded as quiet.
At this time, the main body of the martial arts hall has been completed, and the rest is basically the decoration project, Su Qiubai roughly turned around, and found that Jianghai City has also invested heavily in this martial arts hall, its scale is not much worse than the campus of Jianghai University, and all the facilities are also readily available, which looks very luxurious.
Su Qiubai originally thought that this martial arts hall was just built to deal with those who were deceived and abducted, and it would be great to have the scale of an ordinary high school, and just hire a few teachers and teach a few more teachers. He was almost certain that the rest of Huaxia was doing just that. But at this time, it seems that Ouyang Dong is doing this as a serious job, no wonder he was so persistent in wanting him to be the owner of this hall before.
The location of this martial arts hall is chosen by a layman at first glance, because there is nothing special about this place, and the spiritual power is not very abundant, so it can be said that it is completely unsuitable for cultivation. However, most of the people who want to come to practice are also driven by curiosity, and there are not many people who really want to achieve positive results.
After leaving the martial arts hall, Su Qiubai returned home and began to worry about what would happen after his father came to Jianghai.
Coming to Jianghai from the Weihai Military District, if you take a plane, it won't take you a few hours. So he guessed that his father should be almost there by now.
Sure enough, half an hour after he returned home, he received a call from Su Pojun.
"Where is your mother now? I've been to Jianghai, and I want to see her as much as I can. Su Pojun said straight to the point.
Su Qiubai said with some embarrassment: "I haven't told her about you coming to Jianghai, in fact, I don't know how to speak, because I promised her not to tell you about her return." ”
Su Pojun thought for a while and said, "Then you tell me the address of your house, and I will go directly to you." ”
It seems that he wants to make a surprise attack, which is not a bad solution, anyway, if his mother knew, she would definitely not agree with him.
After telling Su Pojun the address, Su Qiubai began to wait anxiously, and in order to avoid embarrassment, he also deliberately took Anya who was idle at home away.
It didn't take long for the doorbell to ring, and Dongfang Miao, who was watching TV in the living room, said a little strangely: "Is Xiaoya back?" Strange, how did you come back after just leaving for a while? ”
Su Qiubai knew that the person outside the door must not be Anya, so he was a little hesitant to say hello to his mother first.
Seeing Su Qiubai's strange expression, Dongfang Miao also felt a little strange, pointed to the door and said, "The doorbell has been ringing for a long time, why don't I open it?" ”
Su Qiubai hurriedly ran to the door, opened the door and saw that it was indeed Su Pojun.
As soon as Su Qiubai dodged around, he let Su Pojun enter the house.
Dongfang Miao inadvertently turned his head, and after seeing Su Pojun, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
Immediately after, Su Qiubai saw that her expression had changed three or four times in a few seconds. From the initial surprise, to hesitation, and then to a hint of anger, almost in one go, Su Qiubai's heart also beat wildly. He didn't know if his mother would blame him for his reckless actions, but this moment was going to happen sooner or later.
Dongfang Miao didn't say anything, got up and was about to go to the bedroom, Su Pojun hurriedly rushed up when he saw this, stopped her and said, "Ah Miao, don't leave yet, listen to me." ”
Dongfang Miao stopped when he heard this, looked at him with cold eyes, and said, "What do you want to say?" ”
Su Pojun glanced back at Su Qiubai and motioned for him to leave first, but Dongfang Miao said, "Don't avoid it, just say what you want to say." ”
Su Qiubai didn't leave for a while, he stood at the door awkwardly and looked at his father and then his mother, and finally had to stare at the ceiling, but his ears were still listening carefully to the conversation between the two.
"Ah Miao, I'm sorry that I've caused you to suffer for so many years." Su Pojun apologized first.
Dongfang Miao's expression didn't change in the slightest, she just nodded and said, "I accepted your apology, is there anything else to say?" ”
Su Pojun would rather her have a big fight with herself, or even beat and scold herself, which is far a hundred times stronger than her current cold attitude. As long as she is still angry, it means that she still has feelings for herself, but if she has always been like this, it means that she has really died to herself.
In any case, he tried to make amends, and said, "I know that no amount of me can make up for the debt I have owed you all these years, but I hope you will give me another chance so that I can make it up to you." ”
Dongfang Miao's eyes finally fluctuated, but he sneered and said, "Compensation me? What do you offer to compensate me for more than twenty years of captivity? ”
Su Pojun looked at Dongfang Miao with a painful heart, he thought that although she was arrested and returned to Taiyimen, after all, she was still the eldest lady of the family, and she would not have a bad life, but at this time, it sounded that her life in Taiyimen was far worse than he thought.
"Actually, I originally planned to save you, but it is really difficult to compete with Taiyimen on my own, and I went to join the army with this purpose at the beginning, and naively thought that as long as I get ahead in the army, I will take the army to save you. But I later found out that it was not the case at all, and even this idea had to be shattered. In despair, I had to bury my head in my work, trying to lighten my thoughts about you. In those years, I didn't even dare to go home, what I was afraid of was that I would think of you when I saw Qiubai. Su Pojun said bitterly.
When Su Qiubai on the side heard this, he was surprised that his father still had this secret in his heart, it turned out that he rarely went home in the past, and this was the reason!
Dongfang Miao was finally moved when she heard these words, and her cold face eased a little, and then she glanced at Su Pojun and said: "Do you know, when I was just captured by my father, I also knew that you couldn't rescue me by yourself, so I was determined to die at that time, and I wanted to kill myself many times, but my father stopped me. It wasn't until later ......" she said this, a look of pain appeared on her face, apparently thinking of the painful memories of being connected to the jade mulberry tree.
"Then I was imprisoned by my father, and I could not survive or die, and from then on I began to hope that you might come and rescue me, but I waited for nothing, and spent twenty-six years in that dark crypt!" Dongfang Miao said, tears could no longer be suppressed.
"Dongfang is ...... He did this to you? Su Pojun said in shock and anger.
Dongfang Miao smiled bitterly and said, "If it weren't for Qiubai coming to save me, I would probably have been dead for a long time now." ”
Hearing this, Su Pojun glanced back at Su Qiubai, with a grateful look on his face, but Su Qiubai was still staring at the ceiling, as if there was something interesting there, and he didn't notice his father's gaze at all.
"Ah Miao, it was not easy for our husband and wife to be reunited, I want to use the rest of my life to try my best to compensate you, I hope you can give me this opportunity." Su Pojun said seriously.
Dongfang Miao looked at Su Pojun in a daze for a long time, and finally shook his head and said: "After so many things, we can't go back to the past, and I don't need any compensation from you, you better go back to your army." ”
Su Pojun immediately shook his head and said: "As long as you nod, I can immediately resign from my position in the army, and from now on, I will accompany you wherever you want to go, and I will never leave you half a step again!" ”
Dongfang Miao was unmoved, "No, didn't you understand what I meant?" I don't need you to accompany me, it's enough to have a son for the rest of my life, even if he can't always be with me, then it doesn't matter if I live alone. ”
Su Pojun was not good at words, and he had broken through the limit of being able to say so much today, but Dongfang Miao's attitude was still so resolute that he was almost at a loss for anything. Although I didn't want to give up, I inevitably felt a sense of despair in my heart.
"You really ...... Won't forgive me? Su Pojun asked in disappointment.
Dongfang Miaoyan didn't speak, his cold eyes just looked away.
Su Qiubai, who was on the side, listened to it for so long, worried that the two would cherish each other if they let it go any longer, so he hurriedly said, "Can you listen to me say a few words?" ”
