Chapter 136: That Kid Didn't Survive

When Su Qingyuan woke up from her slumber, the first thing she saw was a black beam, covered with tiny insect eyes and dry cracks.

It turns out that the beams of the house can be so low, as if they can reach it with one hand.

This is another world that Su Qingkite has never been exposed to.

After a moment of apprehension, Su Qingyuan came to her senses and hurriedly reached out and touched her stomach.

What about the kids?!

She immediately noticed something unusual.

The vague memory became clearer little by little, like a strong wind blowing away the clouds—but even if the clouds cleared, she still couldn't see the child.

Her memories came to an abrupt end after escaping the tunnel, and she couldn't find any useful clues.

What about children?

She struggled to get up and looked around, but all she saw was a black stove, a black table, some old black cages stacked in a mess, and even the quilt she was covering herself was a dull brown and black color—she looked in all directions, rummaged through every corner of the quilt, and still found no sign of the child.

Su Qingyuan suddenly jumped out of bed, pulled his legs and ran outside.

As soon as she took two steps, she suddenly felt that her eyes were dark, and she somehow fell to the ground.

The door squeaked, and it opened.

A woman in coarse cloth walked into the door quickly, grabbed Su Qingyuan's arm and helped her up: "Who told you to get out of bed?" You don't want to die? ”

"Kid...... What about my child? Su Qingyuan grabbed the woman's shoulder and hissed and asked.

The woman dragged her to the bed with half support and half hugging, and sat her down: "You lie down honestly first, and listen to me tell you in detail!" ”

Ever since she saw that woman, Su Qingyuan had been staring into her eyes. It wasn't until this moment that she finally confirmed her guess:

"It's you—you're not dead?"

The woman's face sank, and she quickly returned to normal, lifted the corner of the quilt and pushed Su Qingyuan in: "If you don't want to die, lie down in the bed first!" If you die just after giving birth to a child, no one can save you! ”

Su Qingyuan refused to lie down properly, and propped herself up to grab the woman's wrist: "What are you doing with your face like that?" Even if you are burned to ashes, I will recognize you! ”

The woman frowned and sat down on the edge of the bed: "Oh? Tell me, who am I? ”

Su Qingyuan raised her head and stared into her eyes: "Lin Miao'er, Mrs. Su, Aunt Nian - it's you, right?" ”

The woman reached out and grabbed Su Qingyu's wrist and sneered: "It seems that this useless broken bracelet really betrayed me." ”

Sure enough, it was her!

Su Qingkite secretly grabbed the horns.

This woman really has some means, and the Beiyan Post House has set up such a big game for her, and she actually survived!

Aunt Nian's hand tightened, and Su Qingyuan's wrist was clenched: "Since you recognize me, dare to be so presumptuous?" That's what your dad always taught you? ”

Not to be outdone, Su Qingyuan glared: "Everyone in the world knows that I have a life and no one to raise, why don't you know?" ”

Aunt Nian frowned, it was rare that she didn't get angry, but her face was really not good-looking.

Su Qingyuan sat up against the pillow: "Where did you get my child?" ”

She tried her best to pretend not to care, but her palms were already sweating with nervousness.

The moment she recognized the person in front of her, she had a very bad premonition: her child was afraid that he would be more than lucky!

Aunt Nian looked at her for a long time before she sighed: "Even if I don't say it, I'm afraid you have a number in your own heart - that kid didn't survive." ”

Su Qingkite's eyes turned black again.

She tried her best to hold on to herself.

After a long while, she heard her own hoarse voice: "Was it born and gone, or did you kill it?" ”

Aunt Nian avoided her gaze and said in a flat tone: "You had a difficult birth for a day and a night, fighting, running for your life, and falling asleep...... That kid wasn't made of iron! You don't have the ability to save that child's life, but now you have to rely on my head? ”

"You should answer my question head-on." Su Qingyuan narrowed her eyes, still staring at her.

Aunt Nian let out a mocking sneer: "I killed him? I'm afraid of getting my hands dirty! It's just a seed of evil, and if you die, you're dead, are you very valuable to him? ”

Su Qingyuan looked at her steadily.

Aunt Nian sat silently for a while, her face softened, and she stretched out her hand and patted the back of Su Qingyuan's hand comfortingly: "You are still young, it is not easy to have children?" That evil seed shouldn't exist in the first place, you know it in your own heart. ”

Su Qingyuan lowered her head and asked for a long time, "Is that a boy or a girl?" ”

"It's gone, don't ask." Aunt Nian sighed.

Su Qingyuan clenched the corners of the quilt and continued to ask, "Where did you bury it?" ”

"Hey the dogs." Aunt Nian said lightly.

"What about dogs?" Su Qingyuan refused to stop there.

Aunt Nian didn't expect her to ask such a question, and she was speechless for a while.

Su Qingyuan raised her head to look at her, and suddenly laughed "sneer", and tears fell at the same time.

Aunt Nian raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, smiled wryly and shook her head: "You are really ...... I easily rescued you from your father's minions, and now we are running for our lives, where am I going to bury your child? Throw it into the gutter, what are you going to do? Are you still planning to settle accounts with me? Let me give you the company of that little seed? ”

"I didn't even look at it......" Su Qingyuan retracted into the quilt and said in a low voice.

Aunt Nian rubbed her hand and sighed softly: "It's best if I haven't seen it!" How sincere Lu Li is to treat you, now you are afraid that you have seen it clearly. I ask you, are you really willing to be tied up by his children for the rest of your life? Most of the girls of your age are still coquettish in their mother's arms, do you think about what kind of life you have had this year? Your suffering is all brought to you by Lu Li, and you are still holding an infatuation to give birth to children for him, are you stupid? ”

"What are you doing now?" Su Qingyuan pulled the horns to cover her face, and sighed astringently.

Aunt Nian patted the corner of the quilt and said softly, "I hope you can let go completely." From now on, you don't have to think about anything, just take care of your body obediently, just treat the past as a nightmare - you haven't been with Lu Li, let alone given birth to him, you are still the original delicate daughter, and you are still a little girl who doesn't know the suffering of the world......"

"What about the 'little girl'?" Su Qingyuan habitually put her hand on her stomach, and then remembered that the child was no longer there.

Aunt Nian held her hand and smiled: "You, you have been deceived by Lu Li for so many years, and you have been fooled!" Who doesn't like a girl with snowy skin? Don't say it's now, even if it is another ten or twenty years, there will still be no fewer men who want to marry you, why do you hang yourself on Lu Li's tree? ”

"Do you mean that I should try to change a few trees and die a few more times?" Su Qingyuan asked with wide eyes.

Aunt Nian slapped the back of her hand heavily: "I kindly persuade you, you are not in shape!" I think I'm worrying about it in vain, you still have the mind to talk nonsense, so you can see that there is nothing you can't think about! ”

"Indeed, there's nothing I can't think of......" Su Qingyuan sighed low and smiled bitterly.

"It seems that Lu Li has completely broken your heart this time." Aunt Nian sighed.

Su Qingyuan rolled over and was silent.

Aunt Nian simply lay down beside her and reached out to wrap her shoulder: "I have persuaded you so many times, you are always obsessed, and now you can be regarded as sober, right?" Has that little brute ever visited you in the last two months? I've heard that he's like glue with that concubine, and he's so good! You gave birth to a child for him, and after so long of turning around the ghost gate, did he ever care about your life or death? At the last minute, although he sent that kid surnamed Duan back to look for you, do you know whether he came to save you or kill you? ”

"Don't talk about it." Su Qingkite curled up irritably and covered her head with her horns.

Aunt Nian chuckled: "What's the matter, when it comes to your heart?" ”

Su Qingyuan was silent.

Aunt Nian sighed in a low voice again: "Alas, I can't blame you either...... He asks for something from you, and naturally he does not hesitate to talk in front of you. It's only to blame that you are young and ignorant, you were deceived by him, and you stupidly thought that you had found a lover! Now that you think about it, is it worth it to do so much for him? ”

Su Qingyuan still refused to answer. Aunt Nian sighed again: "Do you remember Xiao Lizi? ”

Su Qingyuan didn't make a sound, didn't move, and pretended to be dead.

Aunt Nian reached into the quilt and grabbed her hand, and sighed, "Little Lizi is dead, do you know?" ”

Su Qingyuan wanted to say "die well", but held back again.

Aunt Nian said with emotion: "That child, I can't stand him." At first, I was anxious to pull you out of the sea of suffering, so I forced him to help me train you, but who knew that the tiger dog not only failed to save you, but made you dislike me and hurt him. ”

Su Qingyuan poked her head out and frowned, but did not speak.

Aunt Nian reached out and rubbed her eyebrows: "You want to ask how he died, don't you?" The kid...... Alas, do you remember the man you saw on fire when you escaped from the tunnel? ”

Su Qingyuan nodded.

Aunt Nian sighed, "That's him." He lit the fire on his own - he turned himself into a fireball, just to disrupt the Ironclad and give you a chance to escape......"

Su Qingyuan was stunned for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe it!" You're not in the tunnels, how do you know? ”

Aunt Nian rubbed her hand and sighed: "Not only do I know this, I also know that after you fell asleep, it was Xiao Lizi who took out the secret medicine of their Divine Bird Country, 'Wuzhi Soul Renewal Pill', and gave it to you, which saved your life." If not, how do you think you survived? Do you worry about this little body that is dying of illness? ”

Su Qingyuan turned around slowly.

Aunt Nian wiped the corners of her eyes for her, with a sad face: "He burned himself so badly that he came out with his last breath to give you the medicine, and then died—in fact, he could have eaten the medicine himself, but he chose to save you." ”

Su Qingyuan thought for a long time, but still felt incredulous: "I don't treat him well at all, and I keep torturing him...... He should hate me, how could he save me with his own life? ”

Aunt Nian shook her head, as if she was a little upset for Xiao Lizi: "Silly boy, because he loves you!" He has you in his heart, so he is willing to exchange his life for your life, and he is willing to suffer as much as you want! Think about it for yourself, if Lu Li were changed, would he be able to do this for you? ”

Su Qingyuan bit the corner of her lip, not wanting to answer this question.

She secretly thought in her heart: Even if Lu Li was willing to do such a thing for her, she would never agree.

However, will Lu Li do this?

Su Qingyuan had no answer in her heart.

Aunt Nian grabbed her shoulder hard, as if she hated that iron was not made of steel: "Are you still making excuses for Lu Li?" Stop lying to yourself, he only has himself in his heart, and he has never really loved you! Do you think that if he spoils you for a few days and indulges you, he loves you? What is the difference between treating you and the parrot under the eaves or the tanuki by the fireside? You're just a plaything for him! Why didn't he come to see you in the last two months, not because you were too old to serve him or satisfy his shameful lust! Think about it, when did Lu Li really please you? You don't know what other people are like, just compare it with Xiao Lizi, and think about how Xiao Lizi serves you and pleases you? Can Lu Li do it? ”

"That's a different ......" Su Qingyuan picked up the quilt again and covered herself.

Aunt Nian let out a long sigh: "Of course it's different!" Who's true and who's false, you can understand now, right? ”

"I'm tired." Su Qingyuan didn't want to listen to it anymore, so she had to choose to escape.

Aunt Nian hugged her shoulder again: "People can't be resurrected after death, and the matter of Xiao Lizi has passed." He just chose the path he wanted to take, and you don't have to be sad. I just hope you understand that not all men in the world are like Lu Li. You still have a long life to live in the future, and you should choose to look forward instead of making yourself a sad resentful woman for the sake of a man who doesn't love you at all! ”

"Did my father break through the gates?" Seeing that she still refused to leave, Su Qingyuan simply changed the subject.

Aunt Nian frowned, her face was ugly: "Naturally, no." Beiyan's reinforcements did not come, and he rashly attacked the city, which was simply asking for his own hardship! ”

Su Qingyuan savored her tone, secretly doubting in her heart.

There are only a handful of people who know the secrets of the tunnel, and they are all the most trustworthy people in Lu Li, and there is almost no possibility of betrayal.

In contrast, the one most likely to leak this secret is none other than Aunt Nian herself.

Based on this, it can be inferred that his old husband and wife should have hooked up and committed adultery...... It's right to reconcile as before, but listening to my aunt's tone, it doesn't seem like that!

What went wrong?

Su Qingyuan thought for a long time, and finally asked, "What kind of place is this?" Is it my father's barracks? ”

Aunt Nian snorted and sneered, "His military camp? You think beautifully! If you enter his barracks, what if he doesn't tie you up, and he can still let you lie down on a high bed and lie on a soft pillow? ”

Su Qingyuan patted the damp pillow full of wheat bran and pouted.

Well, high bed soft pillows.

Aunt Nian glanced at her: "Lu Li and your father are arresting us, it's good to be able to escape with your life, do you still want to be happy?" Bear with it! ”

"They won't kill me." Su Qingyuan pouted.

Aunt Nian sneered: "Won't kill you?" Do you think you're still useful? Your child is gone, can Lu Li, that little brute spare you? Your father's eyes are not blind, the little beast doesn't want you anymore, what is he still raising you for? Do you think there are too many military rations to eat? ”

Su Qingyuan was speechless, so she had to ask, "You said earlier that you saved me from the Iron Armor Army?" Why are you doing bad things about my father? You ......"

Aunt Nian waved her hand to stop Su Qingyu's words, and sighed for a long time before she sighed: "You have always only liked to cause trouble for me, but I can't care about your life or death...... Who called you my own daughter? The last time about the Beiyan Inn, I don't know if you know about it or not, but ...... For the sake of mother and daughter, I can only assume that you don't know. Kite, you have to believe that in the heart of a mother, there is no one who really can't get along with her children. ”

"I don't understand that...... After all, I don't know what it's like to be a mother. Su Qingyuan shrunk into the quilt and thought for a long time, biting the corner of her lip hard.

Aunt Nian sighed and sat up slowly.

Su Qingyuan looked up at her again: "What are you going to do next?" Your revenge has not been avenged, do you want to return to the palace in the future? What do you need me to do for you? ”

"Kite, let's not go back to the palace." Aunt Nian sighed.

Su Qingyuan was puzzled.

Aunt Nian leaned over and looked at her: "For so many years, I have been thinking about revenge, but what is the result? Lu Li is still alive and well, and the world of South Vietnam is still his Lu family, and I have spent sixteen years in vain...... It's not a good deal! Kite, when you get well, my mother will take you out of the capital! We can go south along the river to see the great mountains and rivers in this world, and see the mountains where our Wu people have lived for generations...... If we're tired, let's find a place to stay; If you have a man you like, you can also amplify your courage and bravely pursue your happiness......"

Aunt Nian gently patted Su Qingyu's quilt, wiped the corners of her eyes and turned around and walked out.

Su Qingyuan heard her close the door, and immediately turned over and sat up.

There was a dizziness in front of him, and his heart was even more confused.

There is no Lu Li, no children, and everything that Su Ri is familiar with...... She didn't know what to do anymore.

She didn't even know where she was.

In the palace before, no matter how panicked he was, at least he knew where to stay, so he wouldn't be too confused.

And now, catkins in the wind, duckweed in the water, but that's it.

For Lu Li, she didn't want to see her again, but the child ......

She still doesn't want to believe that the good child, why is it gone?

Even when she was very weak before she fell into a coma, she could still feel its restlessness, its desperate efforts to come into the world—how could such a strong child, a child who had miraculously survived so many hardships, choose to give up at the last moment?

Is she a mother who is not blessed, or is someone else doing something in the way?

No matter which one it is, Su Qingkite doesn't want to believe it.

The child was born, she didn't even look at it, how could she believe that it was dead!

Having learned the lesson of the last time, Su Qingyuan slowly slid down on the edge of the bed, and moved to the window little by little with his shoes on his feet - saying that it was a window, it was actually a bottomless crockpot, leaking in a cloud of skylight.

Su Qingyuan tiptoed over and brought her eyes to the "window".

Outside, however, was a straw hut, in which a few white sheep were leisurely munching on hay.

Su Qingyuan changed a few angles, and finally saw the scene in the distance through a gap in the grass hut - but it was just an ordinary private courtyard.

There is nothing special about such a courtyard, and Aunt Nian is dressed up as an ordinary old woman with goosebumps, even if someone finds here, I am afraid that she will not see any flaws.

This thought flashed through her heart, and Su Qingyuan laughed bitterly at herself again.

Who is she hoping for to save her?

Who else will come to her rescue?

Su Qingyuan slowly turned around and returned to the bedside.

However, she was unwilling to lie down like this.

She could no longer go back to Lu Li's side, and she could dispel the idea of running away, but—

Child!

Su Qingyuan walked quickly to the door, and used all his strength to open the heavy wooden door that was nearly two inches thick.

There was a screeching sound from the door, and Su Qingkite didn't care about it.

She gritted her teeth and stepped out of the threshold, only to see Aunt Nian standing at the gate of the courtyard, talking to a soldier-like person.

Su Qingyuan recognized the color of the person's clothes, which was the golden armor guard in the palace.

Instinctively, she turned around and tried to escape back into her room.

The soldier shouted, "Who is that woman?" ”

Su Qingyuan's heart was a little panicked, but she heard Aunt Nian say calmly: "That's the old woman's daughter, who is infected with the wind and cold and is not well, and she is recuperating in the house!" ”

The two golden-armored soldiers pushed her away and barged in without saying a word.

Su Qingyuan subconsciously covered her face - her face was not like the appearance of an ordinary daughter of a private family, I am afraid that she would be exposed.

The two soldiers didn't even look at her, but went straight into the room, looked under the table, under the bed, and in the cage, and then turned and walked out.

Aunt Nian followed with trembling legs, and said in a whisper: "The officials are also careful, where can you hide the prisoners in such a small place as the old woman's house!" ”

The two soldiers pinched their noses and turned to the grass shed to take a look, then withdrew and glared at Su Qingyu: "What are you doing with such a tight package?" ”

Aunt Nian smiled and said, "It's cold, wrap it tightly to get better faster!" The family also pointed to her to do needlework in exchange for money to buy rice, where can she be sick and lazy all day long! ”

Su Qingyuan's heart turned hundreds of thoughts, but in the end he didn't say anything.

The two soldiers were not suspicious, pushed each other, and walked out impatiently.

Su Qingyuan touched her face suspiciously.

- She always thought that she was born very good-looking, why did she just change her outfit, and even the soldiers didn't want to take a second look?

Aunt Nian waited for the two to go away, then closed the door, came back and said with a smile: "It seems that you have already figured it out in your heart." ”

Su Qingyuan turned her head away: "I won't go back to Lu Li's side again, but that doesn't mean I believe you." If one day I find out that you lied to me......"

At this moment, there were two loud noises at the gate, and someone shouted loudly outside: "Open the door!" ”
