Chapter 36 It turns out that she is the most innocent
The truth is like the emperor's new clothes, and it is only a matter of time before it is revealed! ββ
"Do you know my mother?" Xue Zuining was slightly stunned, but there was no trace of this person in his memory, "Excuse me, who are you?" β
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just the person in charge of the Blue Sky Orphanage." The middle-aged man explained, "Your mother was a volunteer at the orphanage before her death, and I have seen your photos. β
"Hello." Xue Zuining smiled politely, but heard the man say to himself, "Are you convenient now?" I have something that Ms. Zhong has entrusted to pass on to you when she was alive. β
In the small room, Xue Zuining watched the man use the key to open the lock of the drawer, take out an object similar to a player from a box, and then turn around and walk in his direction.
The man solemnly handed over the things in his hand to her, "This is something that your mother gave me a week before she died, and she said that if God gives me the opportunity to meet you, I will give it to you, and the contents can solve many doubts for you." β
Xue Zuining didn't dare to reach out to take it, and a strong premonition told her that the so-called "content" would set off a hurricane-like disaster in her life.
The man placed the object in her trembling palm and drew a cross on her chest, "Follow your destiny and God will bless you." β
With that, the priest disappeared into the room, but he lit the chandelier on the ceiling for her before leaving.
Xue Zuining stared at the player in her hand for a long time, and her mother's voice and smile flashed in her mind, why did she lose her mind when she knew about the entanglement between herself and Lu Huaining? Why did she choose to commit suicide? When she finally decided to plug in her headphones to listen to those answers, she felt her fingertips tremble with her heart.
"My Ning Ning, when you hear this recording, I should already be living in another world, and it is time for me to unravel all the dusty past. You may wonder, why don't I give it to you myself? Because I'm also conflicting, because it's going to make me lose you, my only daughter. So, I left it up to Heaven to decide. There was a long blank in the recording, and just when Xue Zuining thought that there was something wrong with the player, the feminine gentle timbre sounded again.
"Ning Ning, please allow me to call you like this last time as a mother, thank you for accompanying me for twenty-three years......" In the recording, Zhong Yilan's voice suddenly choked, and warm tears suddenly slipped from Xue Zuining's face, "My father and Huaining were a pair of childhood sweethearts thirty years ago, but because of the appearance of another woman from a famous family, I had to leave the person I loved. It's just that, on the eve of my decision to leave here, I realized that I was pregnant with his child, and I couldn't bear to hurt the little life in my belly, and because of this, I decided to leave here faster. Later, my child was born safely with the help of a kind person, but he was taken back to the Lu family the day after he was born and became another woman's child. β
The heart suddenly tightened at that moment, Xue Zuining only felt that it was difficult to breathe, the blood in her whole body was freezing a little bit, and there was no wind, but she was trembling uncontrollably.
"So, when I know that my son, who has been away from me for twenty-eight years, has inflicted his revenge on you, the most innocent of you, because of his wrong hatred, I can't help but laugh at the heavens, for what, for what is it that even the peace I want most will not give me?" There was a sigh from the recording, as if something was cracking, "In the third year after leaving City A, I finally decided to come back, but I found that everything was in the past, and I decided to start my new life, so I finally agreed to marry the man who guarded me for three years, the man you called Dad for ten years, but he loved me like a life, but he used a lifetime of sins to make up a dream for me for ten years." β
Xue Zuining wiped away her tears in embarrassment, only to find that crying had just become an unconscious act.
"In the second year of marriage, I welcomed the second little angel in my life, I thought that my disoriented life was filled again, until the day of your tenth birthday, my most trusted husband got drunk and told me that my daughter died of a lung infection on the second day of birth, and the daughter I loved for ten years with my life was just that he secretly exchanged it from everyone and another baby girl in the hospital in order not to make me sad. And this secret is kept for ten years, and this change is a lifetime! β
It turns out that this is the reason why his most beloved father has been alienating from him, because he has been reminding him of the sins he committed back then! That's why he chose to jump from a tall building on his tenth birthday, and this tortured her for thirteen years!
"So, when I knew that Dao Huaining would take revenge on you for all his hatred, I didn't know what position Dao should use to face it. It's just that later I imagined that if we stole your original life, if Huaining fell in love with you, it was God's arrangement, then could we use this way to repay the atonement......"
After that, Xue Zuining only felt that it appeared vaguely and clearly in his mind, it turned out that this was the truth, his former self lost all his dignity and begged that man to save his mother, but her mother was his mother!
It turns out that from beginning to end, he is the most innocent person!
When she walked out of the orphanage, everything in her sight, the green sprouts, the pedestrians coming and going, all rolled and swirled, until the most gloomy one melted into endless darkness.
The unconscious body seemed to fall into a cherished embrace......
And on the third day when Xue Zuining chose to hide in his own world to avoid the reality of chaos, Mu Changshan, who was supposed to be in front of his daughter's bed, appeared in the Lu Mansion.
"Old lady, our two families have been friends for many years, and the relationship is shallow, so I won't beat around the bush, what do I have to say today."
Mu Changshan's face was serious, and his daughter's half-dead condition made him obviously older in a few days.
Old Madam Lu and the housekeeper secretly glanced at each other, and the latter immediately understood, "Miss Mu has such a thing, everyone feels uncomfortable, sit down and have a cup of tea first, and talk about something slowly." β
Mu Changshan refused, "I'm not in the mood to drink tea for a long time today, no matter how slow it is, I think my daughter will die."
Old Madam Lu was stunned, "I heard from the doctor in the hospital that Xiaoxi is out of danger, but she is in a coma for the time being and has not woken up, why-"
"She's not in a coma for a while and hasn't woken up, but she may never wake up!" Mu Changshan interrupted her excitedly, his eyes full of pain.
"The Mu family has two generations of single transmission, and there is only one child in my generation, Xiaoxi, I thought she could marry Huaining, and then let one of their children bear the surname of the Mu family, but I didn't expect the result to be like this! The more I think about it these days, the more I can't swallow this breath! β
He looked at Old Madam Lu with resentment in his eyes, "If you hadn't promised Xiao Xi that she could join the Lu family, she wouldn't have fallen in love with him with all her heart, and there would have been no such tragedy. β
Old Madam Lu was shocked by Mu Changshan's angry accusations, and she didn't know how to refute them for a while. It is true that in order to let her grandson break her thoughts about Zhong Yilan's daughter, she tried her best to promote this marriage, but the current situation is indeed beyond her expectations.
In fact, when she heard Mu Changshan blame her grandson in the hospital that day, she also thought that this person might one day blame herself in turn, after all, she insisted on matching his daughter and her grandson, but she didn't expect it.
"Changshan, I can understand your feelings, parents are dedicated to their children, no matter whose parents encounter this kind of thing, they will feel very painful. The Lu family is indeed responsible for the news, if you have any requirements, we will definitely not refuse. β
Old Madam Lu guessed that he must have come to the door in person to ask for something from the Lu family, so she made a look and asked the housekeeper not to speak, so as not to make Mu Changshan more emotional and have an uncontrollable situation.
When Mu Changshan heard her promise, he eased the anger that surged up in his heart, and paused before saying, "My request is very simple, Xiaoxi doesn't know if Lu Dao can wake up like this, and her biggest wish is to marry Huaining, so I hope that your Lu family can give her a name, one is to be happy, and the other is to make Xiaoxi feel at ease." β
"Do you want Huaining to marry Xiaoxi?" Old Madam Lu exclaimed.
The housekeeper was also shocked, obviously he didn't expect Mu Changshan to come to the door and make such a request.
"I just asked him to give Xiaoxi a name, and I didn't force him to keep Xiaoxi for the rest of his life and not marry again, this request is not too much, right?"
"Changshan, Huaining's marriage is not for our will, if he is willing, we will naturally not object." Old Madam Lu pondered for a long time and then spoke, although the matter is tricky, but it can solve an urgent matter.
Mu Changshan sneered, "Old lady, if he would agree so easily, I could talk to him directly without looking for you." β
"But we have never been able to do his business, so let's do it, he just happened to be not at home tonight, so it is better to wait for me to discuss it with him before discussing it with you."
It's just that just as Mrs. Lu's prevarication fell, an indifferent voice came from upstairs, "No need to change the day, I can give you a reply now, my wife will only be one person, and that person will never be your daughter!" β
"Your Lu family is simply too deceitful! You ......"
"Uncle, your request is difficult to obey, otherwise why would I break the marriage contract with her in the first place?" Lu Huaining faced Mu Changshan's resentful gaze, and his tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Now you owe Xiaoxi, it's you who hurt our Mu family, it's not bad that I didn't ask you to compensate me for a daughter, but you don't want to give her a name?"
Lu Huaining's tone instantly turned cold, and he walked to Mrs. Lu's side to help her sit down first, and then turned around and said, "I miss you as an elder, and I miss the friendship between the two families and give you three points of courtesy, otherwise, I'm afraid that next time you won't even have a chance to enter the door of the Lu Mansion." β
"So, you resolutely refuse?"
Lu Huaining did not respond, but his expression was very firm in refusal.
Mu Changshan didn't laugh angrily, "Old Madam Lu, the good grandson of your Lu family, he really has a backbone and is cold-blooded enough." β
Old Madam Lu heard the sarcasm in his words, her face was slightly pale, and the bone china tea cup in her hand was also trembling slightly, overflowing a little tea.
"Mr. Mu, although my wife also admits that the Lu family is partly responsible for the accident, you can't blame the Lu family for all the mistakes, it was an accident, and you are a little unreasonable." The housekeeper was also upright, but he saw that the resentment in Mu Changshan's eyes was even deeper.
Mrs. Lu wiped the water stains on the back of her hand with a handkerchief, and glanced at the person with a blue face, originally she didn't want to stiffen the relationship for the sake of the two families who have been friends for many years, but she didn't expect that Mu Changshan's whole person changed after suffering a blow, and he didn't have any reason at all.
"Old lady, in all fairness, if my daughter and your grandson broke off their marriage contract and caused him to lose his soul and get into a car accident, lying half dead in the hospital, I don't think you would have said much to me at all, but directly arrested my daughter to convict, compared to you, my unreasonable troubles are really nothing."
"Changshan, you know that I won't agree to it, so why make such a request and embarrass the two families?" Old Madam Lu took the first step to stop Lu Huaining from speaking, "I can't agree to this request, as long as the rest is not too much, I can agree as much as I can." β
"Okay, if you don't want to give Xiaoxi a name, then use advanced medical techniques to give birth to a child with her to stay for my Mu family, and from then on, the two Mu Lu families will break off their will, and they will no longer communicate with each other when they die of old age!"
As soon as Mu Changshan's words fell, the other three were stunned, and the cup in Mrs. Lu's hand fell directly to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Lu Huaining was the first to understand what he meant, and snorted coldly, "She is like this, is it still possible to get pregnant?" β
Mu Changshan ignored it, "I have already consulted her attending doctor, as long as she gives birth to a child in her womb, she can give birth to a child between her and Huaining." β
"It can't be!" The first to oppose was Mrs. Lu, "Don't say that Huaining thinks it's ridiculous, even I won't allow the descendants of our Lu family to have a foreign surname, besides, the children born from the womb and the mother are still bound by blood, it's too chaotic, I will never allow such a monster that insults the lintel to appear in our Lu family!" β
"I only have these two requests, and you can agree to one of them at will." Mu Changshan is also iron-hearted.
"What if I don't choose either?" Lu Huaining's eyes were slightly cold, "Do you really think that the Lu family will be afraid of you!" β
And when Xue Zuining, who had disappeared for three days, finally mustered up the courage to step into the door of the Lu Mansion, the first thing he heard was a quarrel, and it seemed that the main house was filled with the smell of gunsmoke.
The door opened, and three pairs of eyes focused on her at the same time, one was at ease, one was surprised and gloomy, and the other was angry and jealous.
Just when Xue Zuining was hesitating whether to advance or retreat, Lu Huaining, who was burning with warmth in his eyes, walked up to her, stretched out his hand to hold her, and then turned to the people in the room and announced, "She is my fiancΓ©e, the person I identify." As he spoke, his indifferent gaze swept over Mu Changshan, whose face was pale, "The wedding card must be delivered, and my uncle will be invited to appreciate the wedding at that time." β
Old Madam Lu watched the two people snuggling up to each other slowly approaching her, it seemed that this was the same scene thirty years ago, but how could they be together!
"No, you can't...... You must not be together! Old Madam Lu broke away from the housekeeper who was holding her, rushed forward and bumped into the two of them, holding Xue Zuining's hand and pleading, "Miss Xue, I don't care what mood you are in, revenge or willingness, I beg you to leave here and leave my grandson!" β
Xue Zuining didn't know how to explain the truth of the matter, and just when she was confused, a man's strength came from her waist.
"Grandma!" Lu Huaining hugged Xue Zuining, who was speechless, "Why do you have such a big prejudice against her?" Why can you accept others but not her? β
For together you are damned!
It's just that before Mrs. Lu's words came out, an abrupt male voice was suddenly inserted.
"I know why!"
