Chapter Fifty-Eight: Confession?
There was an inexplicable sense in the chamber.
The head of the family, Helian Xin, and the second elder Helian Yi, were speechless and choked with excitement because they received Helian Liruo's recognition of their identity.
The grim look on the faces of the third elder Helian Huo and the sixth elder Helian Li flashed, it seems that it is impossible to give Helian Liruo to the Wang family as a favor today, and everything has to be considered in the long run.
The five elders were much more indifferent, their eyebrows were slightly bent from beginning to end, and a smile like Maitreya Buddha hung on their faces.
And Helian Liruo let these two teary-eyed elders look at her, she is still calm and at ease, she is not grateful for the attention of the elders of the Helian family to her, if she hadn't come, they would have died a long time ago.
"It seems that the head of the Helian family will not let me take people away today?" Wang Sheng looked at the people in the council hall with different expressions and broke the silence.
"I don't send it. "The head of the family, Helian Xin, has not yet calmed down from the shock of seeing Helian Liruo, and he is also very perfunctory to Wang Sheng at this moment, if Wang Sheng is not the pride of the Wang family, he will omit even this perfunctory sentence when he comes to Helian Xin.
"Is the head of the Helian family going against my Wang family?" Wang Sheng was a little unconvinced.
When the second elder heard Wang Sheng's threat, his whole body was full of aura, and his right hand shot out into a fist, and a cracking sound came from the air, and Wang Sheng hurriedly put his hands across his chest to resist, but he was still shocked back two steps.
"Remember, this is in my Helian family, even if the head of your Wang family is here, I'm afraid I have to weigh it!" Seeing that Wang Sheng was so ignorant, the second elder Helian Yi threw off his sleeve robe and spoke directly with his strength.
Although the matter between juniors seems to be a little disgraceful for him and an elder, but Helian Yi can't care so much about it at this time, he just wants to blast Wang Sheng away now.
Wang Sheng saw that he couldn't get any benefit if he stayed any longer, so he left a sentence: "My Wang family will never give up!" and left Helian's house with his subordinates.
After Wang Sheng left, the head of the family, Helian Yi, spoke: "Disperse." Then he looked at the Third Elder Helian Huo and the Sixth Elder Helian Li, and said as if unintentionally, "People know that they don't steal chickens and rice." ”
When the third elder Helianhuo heard this insinuation, he chuckled in his heart, could it be that Helianxin, this old guy, noticed something? Thinking about it, he hurriedly left the council hall, followed by the sixth elder.
The fifth elder saw that everyone was walking and scattered, and actually walked in front of Helian Liruo, with a smile on his face, and said to Helian Liruo in a kind and warm voice: "This is our family's little five, what a beautiful embryo." ”
Helian Liruo sneered in her heart, if she remembered correctly, it was this Fifth Elder Helian Ren who pushed her out to accept the Helian family's house rules.
She believed that if it weren't for the fact that the head of the family recognized her, and that the second elder and the head of the family still had feelings for her father, whom she had never met, she might not have seen the sun tomorrow because of the instigation of the fifth elder just now.
Now looking at this fifth elder, it seems that there is no one, and the words of the mouth seem to be very familiar with Helian Liruo.
Raising her hand and not smiling at the person, if Helian Li hadn't figured out the true situation of the Helian family, she would naturally not be estranged from the five elders, and besides, the Helian family might still be able to be used by her.
The corners of her mouth rose, and a textbook-like polite smile hung on her lips: "Fifth uncle." ”
"Hey~" happily agreed, so that people couldn't find any fault, "Good boy." ”
"If you have any difficulties in the future, look for the fifth uncle, and the fifth uncle will support you. ”
"Good. ”
"The fifth uncle still has some things to deal with, so when he has nothing to do, he will go to the fifth uncle to sit down. ”
Helian Liruo showed a flattered look: "Thank you, Fifth Uncle." ”
After saying what he had to say, he finished playing the role of his kind elder, and the fifth elder Helian Ren was not interested in staying in the council hall any longer, so he left.
In this way, only the head of the family, Helian Xin, the second elder Helian Yi, and Helian Liruo were left in the council room.
After everyone dispersed, the head of the family and the second elder had been looking at Helian Liruo for a while, and their expressions were also changing rapidly.
At the beginning, the two of them saw that Helian Liruo's appearance was somewhat similar to her mother-in-law Milan, and they thought that she was the fifth lady of Helian family, and they were excited.
But later, for some reason, Helian Xin seemed to think of something, the painful look on his face condensed, and suddenly his expression was nervous and a little panicked, and he sat on the ground with a little dejected: "What can I do, if they know......"
"Big brother, maybe these are providence. Second Elder Helian Yi sighed, he squatted down, held Helian Xin's hand tightly, and passed on his strength.
The conversation between the two made Helian Liruo hear it in a fog, but the solemn atmosphere made her feel very uncomfortable, she vaguely seemed to feel that she had caught something, and she even felt as if there was some threat around her, so that she and even the entire Helian family were powerless to resist, she wanted to break this shackle.
This negative atmosphere didn't last long, Helian Yi looked back at Helian Liruo, his face was full of caution: "Xiao Wu, you tell the second uncle, how did you solve your poison?"
"Boom~" Helian Liruo's brain suddenly exploded, he knew that he had been poisoned?
She looked at Helian Yi in front of her with some vigilance, she always thought that her poisoning was done by someone secretly, just now in the council hall, she also suspected that the poison on her body was related to the third elder and the sixth elder, but she never thought that she was poisoned and heard it directly from her second uncle's mouth.
Helian Yi knew that she was poisoned, would he also know who poisoned her? Her poison was brought from her mother's womb, so did Helian Yi also know her mother's whereabouts?
"Then should you tell me how my poison came to me?" There was a hint of urgency in Helian Riruo's voice, and she felt a thread dangling in front of her eyes, and she wanted to grasp it.
Helian Yi didn't answer Helian Liruo's question directly, he held Helian Xin's hand tighter, he was waiting for Helian Xin's decision, deciding whether Helian Liruo should know about those things, after all, Helian Liruo is no longer the same now.
In the past, Helian Liruo was weak and had no power to protect herself, so in order to save her life, they had to do a lot of things, but now the poison on Helian Liruo's body has been resolved, and it seems that her cultivation has broken through the realm of martial artists.
During the last family competition, Helian Liruo's body did not have any spiritual power fluctuations, which means that in just one year, Helian Liruo has jumped from being unable to cultivate to a martial artist, a speed that they have never heard of.
What does this mean? This shows that Helian Li is a genius who is even more beneficious than her father.
Maybe what they can't do, Helian Li can do it, just give her time.
However, now that the contradictions in the family are becoming more and more acute, even if they are ready to face it, as long as the internal troubles are not resolved, it is difficult to ensure that there are no mistakes.
Time passed little by little, and the silence in the chamber was a little breathless.
After a long time, the head of the family, Helian Xin, took a deep breath, he slowly stood up from the ground, a touch of firmness appeared on his face, and his loud voice echoed in the huge meeting hall: "Battle!"
Second Elder Helian Yi heard the words of the head of the family, Helian Xin, and was a little excited: "Big brother, have you really decided?"
After so many years of hiding, can they finally fight with their eyebrows raised and proud? Even if they are overturned, they don't want to linger like this again, seeing their loved ones burdened with pain and helpless.
This decision made the mood of the two of them a little surging, their blood was boiling, and they would never compromise this time!
The second elder Helian Yi knew the decision of the head of the family, Helian Xin, so she no longer hid anything, she said to Helian Liruo: "Five girls, these years...... Your uncle and I know that you have suffered a lot, but don't blame your uncle, he ...... It's also involuntarily. ”
When the words came out, Second Elder Helian Yi still felt a little embarrassed to speak, as if he was a little ashamed to say it because they didn't dare to face it all these years.
Can you really say it so lightly?
Did they ever know what she had suffered in the past ten years? Did they ever know about every sentence of waste and ugly girl's torment of her soul in the past ten years?
On a snowy night when her clothes were small and her arms and legs were exposed, she shivered with cold in the cold room, in the low courtyard where she lived, when Helian Fei beat her with a whip every month and humiliated her, she didn't dare to go out on the street, but when she happened to go out to find some food but ran into Wang Ruolan punching and kicking her, where were these two people?
Helian Li didn't say anything, she just stood there quietly.
She didn't want to argue about anything, although what happened to her did happen, it might not be what the two people in front of her thought.
She was called an ugly girl, and the waste came from the poison in her body, and she couldn't cultivate, and the two people in front of her couldn't control it.
She has ten silver coins a month, and as an ordinary person, her life is passable, and it stands to reason that there will be no lack of clothing and food.
Who's to blame? The greed of the human heart is endless, and those who are nominally related to you by blood can force people to the point where life is worse than death for the sake of a mere ten silver coins a month.
There are too many moths in Helian's family, and the only thing that these two elders in front of them should do wrong is to put her aside and let some people take advantage of it, so that those people think that she is insignificant, as long as she does not die, no one will notice.
What these two elders did wrong was nothing more than that when all kinds of abuse sounded, they took the attitude of not saying a word and thinking that they could calm things down, which led to her torment and torture for more than ten years.
She understands the reason, through the family head Helian Xin's instant loss of control, and the few words of the second elder Helian Yi, Helian Liruo's heart has seen many things clearly, but can she really do it?
