Chapter Ninety-Six: Soho's Recovery
Yannian and Soho looked at each other, and the two of them looked at each other without saying a word.
However, because of Soho's arrival, Li Xiuyu and her children were very unhappy.
Yan Nuo looked at Li Xiuyu and said dissatisfiedly: "Mother, is the young girl that Daddy brought back really the legendary Soho?" How could Soho be so young? ”
Yan Yun'er also echoed: "Yes, that girl looks so young, younger than Shuqing's age, how can it be Soho back then?" ”
Both of them thought it was impossible, and Li Xiuyu also thought it was like this, but that appearance couldn't deceive people.
She has always remembered it clearly, and she has never forgotten Soho's appearance, but she didn't expect that after so many years, Soho would be able to come back, and she could be so proud, snatching away what little care and love Yan Nian had for her.
Yan Nuo saw that she had not spoken, and said a little frustratedly: "Mother, do you know what is going on?" Why would a young girl be our aunt and my father's concubine? ”
Li Xiuyu shook her head, and said helplessly: "I don't know about these, but that girl is indeed Soho, who has disappeared for many years, but I didn't expect her to come back now, and she is still so high-profile." ”
Yan Yun'er also said suspiciously: "Mother, even if that woman is really Soho, her appearance should have changed a long time ago, but why does she look younger than us?" ”
Li Xiuyu looked at her and said, "I only know that Soho is not an ordinary person at all, and it is not unusual that her appearance has not changed for so many years, I just didn't expect her to come back suddenly now, all without warning at all." ”
Thinking about it, Li Xiuyu's heart became more and more sad.
Before Soho came back, she and Yannian were not very close, because those children were still respectful to each other, but now, between the two of them, even this superficial perfunctory is gone.
The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, but there was nothing she could do.
The next day, Li Xiuyu went directly to the Lotus Garden, she wanted to meet Soho.
As soon as she walked into the courtyard, Li Xiuyu's heart was very emotional, after so many years, she had never set foot here, because she was afraid to remember the things of the year, and she felt guilty about the things of that year.
Seeing that she had been in a daze, Su He couldn't help but step forward and said with a smile: "Li Xiuyu, are you here for something?" ”
It wasn't until she said this that Li Xiuyu's eyes were pulled back, and looking at Soho, she felt a little emotional.
"You are much better looking now than you were at the beginning, but compared with the vicissitudes of my woman's state, it is really a world of difference."
"Thank you, it's a pity that I won't take these words seriously after all, between you and me, it is destined to be impossible to become real friends."
Li Xiuyu looked at her and smiled, "What I said is true, time flies, I am just a mortal, one day I will die underground and covered by loess, and you are destined to leave Yannian, this is simply inevitable." ”
Su He was stunned, indeed, she is not an ordinary person, so her life is destined to be much longer than that of mortals, and the relationship between words and thoughts, after all, is just a drop in the ocean, it is just a stroke in a long life, and other than that, there is no meaning at all.
After thinking of this, her face changed slightly, and she cleared her throat instead, stroked her heart and said, "Li Xiuyu, since these words are meaningless, I still invite you to the room and talk about it carefully!" ”
As soon as he finished saying this, the two of them had already walked into the room.
Soho personally poured two cups of tea, handed one of them to her, and then said with a smile: "Just tell me, what is the purpose of coming here today?" ”
Li Xiuyu smiled, and directly squinted her eyes and said, "Soho, I know that you are not an ordinary mortal, but where have you been all these years?" Why hasn't it been there? ”
Sure enough, Su Ho knew that she had wanted to ask these questions for a long time, after all, from the moment she appeared at the door of Yan's house, Li Xiuyu's vigilance had never been broken.
She looked at Li Xiuyu and said helplessly: "You still asked me after all, but everything I did was because of you, and all this was caused by you, do you know?" ”
"Because of me, how is this possible?"
"How could it not be? Would I myself be willing to leave my husband and children? You have always known that I love words, and I love words and books, how could I be willing to leave? ”
After a pause, Su Ho looked at her directly with tears in her eyes, and said for a long time: "If it wasn't for you because you were jealous of me and Yannian, why would you poison him?" That meal was a nine-turn free powder, which was originally so ordinary, but it was mixed with the fragrance of those flowers, so that people had no way to find an antidote, do you know all of this? ”
Li Xiuyu shook her head, her face full of disbelief.
Soho took advantage of her shaking consciousness and kicked her to the ground directly, stepped on her hands, and looked at her with angry eyes.
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have transferred those toxins to my own body for the sake of words, but do you know? How hard did it take me to restrain myself at that time? I don't know, I always thought that the toxins would soon be broken down by my body, but it was all just delusion. ”
Li Xiuyu raised her head and looked at her in pain, her expression was a little hideous, and she grinned her teeth, but she couldn't say a word.
"Do you know that at that time, I already had words, books, and words, but you and Mrs. Yan at that time always made things difficult for me in every way, where am I sorry for you? Because of the Xiaohua next to you, my child was almost gone at that time, do you dare to say this, it really has nothing to do with you? Do you really dare to swear to God? ”
Soho stomped on her hands vigorously as she spoke, her expression very indifferent.
Li Xiuyu was trampled on by her feet, her hands were swollen high, with a little bloodstains, and she looked a little miserable.
Soho looked at her with such an expression, but her heart was rare and hearty, and she was happier than ever.
Li Xiuyu felt that Soho had changed a lot when he came back this time, in the past, Soho was so good to everyone in order to hide his identity, even in the face of his own difficulties, he swallowed his anger, but now, Soho's expression and methods are much colder than before.
She didn't know what Soho had experienced over the years, but seeing that Soho remembered the past so clearly, she was a little scared, and she didn't know if Soho was coming back now for revenge.
Just when she was stunned and thinking, Su He directly clasped her hands and raised them, wiped the bloodstained hands, hooked her chin and said, "Li Xiuyu, do you still know that you are afraid?" ”
Li Xiuyu nodded, she was indeed very scared, her body was trembling uncontrollably, now it was summer, but she felt that there was a kind of cold around her body, colder than the snow in winter, and she was about to freeze into the bone marrow.
"You also know to be afraid? I thought you never knew to be afraid, but it turns out that you are still afraid, so why were you not afraid at all when you hurt me and my children? ”
Li Xiuyu listened to what she said, and was very worried, and said directly with a trembling tone: "No, really not, I just obeyed the order of Yannian's mother at that time, and everything was not voluntary at all." ”
After a pause, she boldly glanced at Soho and continued: "At that time, Yannian's mother accepted you on the surface for Yannian's sake, but in fact, she never had any tolerance for you, because your identity was unknown, and her origin was very unclear, but because of Yannian, she was forced to accept you, in fact, in her heart, she had always only hated you, and she didn't treat you as family at all. ”
Su He was shocked, she thought that Mrs. Yan was just jealous because she was too affectionate between herself and Yan Nian, even if it was in front of the child, she would eventually accept herself with the passage of time, but she didn't expect that Yan Nian's mother had never accepted her at all.
She was a little sad, thinking back to the events of that year, full of despair and pain.
Li Xiuyu continued to look at her and said: "At that time, Mrs. Yan hated you so much that the roots of her teeth itched, and I also robbed Yan Nian because of you, so the two of us hit it off, if you didn't marry Yan Nian, maybe everything wouldn't have happened, these are your faults, it's you who fell in love with someone you shouldn't love, you did things you shouldn't do, and you took away our hope." ”
Su He watched Li Xiuyu quibble so unchangeably, and his heart was full of contempt.
"Li Xiuyu, why didn't I find you so able to talk before? It was you who became the third party between me and Yannian, and it was you who had to marry him, why did you say it so frankly? Why don't you feel guilty at all? Is your heart really rock-solid? ”
As soon as she finished saying this, she threw Li Xiuyu to the ground, the force seemed to be a little strong, and Li Xiuyu's forehead directly hit the wall next to her, fortunately, there was no bloodshed, but in this way, Li Xiuyu looked embarrassed enough.
Soho's mood is just a little better.
She said coldly: "Li Xiuyu, although I know that you are now the lady in charge of this family, but I tell you, don't come here to provoke me casually, I am not easy to provoke, once or twice, I can't guarantee that I will still be as good at talking as now, let's go!" ”
As soon as she finished saying this, Li Xiuyu stumbled up from the ground, sorted out her clothes and walked out.
After doing these things, Soho felt that it was worth it and was in a good mood.
She didn't mind Yan Nian at all and found that Li Xiuyu had always hated her so much for so many years, and she must not treat Yan Shuyu so well, all of this was just Li Xiuyu's debt.
And Li Xiuyu walked on the road outside, but she was nervous and scared in her heart, trembling with every step, she was always walking against the wall, her hair was a little scattered, her hands were trampled on very painfully, and the whole person looked very embarrassed.
As soon as she returned to the yard, Yan Yun'er saw her mother's embarrassment, and hurriedly ran over and helped Li Xiuyu back to the room.
She looked at Li Xiuyu, frowned and asked, "Mother, what's the matter with you?" Did someone bully you? ”
Li Xiuyu shook her head, sighed directly, and said helplessly: "It's nothing, I just accidentally knocked to the ground, and it's okay to rest for a while, you don't care so much." ”
Yan Yun'er didn't believe it at all, but she couldn't think of who her mother would be bullied, which was really a headache.
So, she went out and brought a basin of hot water, helped Li Xiuyu clean it, and put on the herbs she usually prepared.
After all these things were done, Yan Yun'er looked at Li Xiuyu and said with tears in her eyes: "Mother, the woman that Daddy brought back from outside looks much younger and more beautiful than you, doesn't he want our mother and daughter anymore?" ”
Li Xiuyu shook her head, stroked her head and said, "Silly child, where in this world is there a father who doesn't want his daughter?" Don't think so much, Soho, I owe her all of this. ”
Yan Yun'er was completely dumbfounded, she never thought that these words would come out of her mother's mouth, she was really a little shocked.
In this family, except for her father, Li Xiuyu has always said the same, and now she can say the word debt, which is really staggering.
Yan Yun'er looked at her mother, and the two hugged each other, tears in each other's eyes.
After a long while, she looked at Li Xiuyu and said, "Mother, why do you say that?" Could it be that you did something to be sorry for her? ”
Li Xiuyu nodded, with a very guilty face.
Seeing this, Yan Yun'er said helplessly: "Mother, then do I need to invite my sister and brother-in-law back?" I believe that with them, Daddy will definitely not favor that Miss Su. ”
Li Xiuyu shook her head and said, "You don't have to be like this, and you can't call her Miss Su directly, she is the concubine that your father married with great fanfare back then, so when you see her in the future, you should call her aunt." ”
As soon as she finished saying this, Yan Yun'er seemed to think of something, and stood up directly from her position and said, "By the way, I seem to remember, Soho, I said, why is this name so familiar, it turns out that it is the woman that Daddy has always been thinking about, Soho, that's the name, that's right." ”
Li Xiuyu didn't expect her to say such a thing, so she looked at her in disbelief and said, "Yun'er, you said that your father has always been obsessed, when did you know about Soho?" What else do you know? ”
"It was once I went to the study to discuss with my father, and there was a beautiful portrait in his study, and the portrait looked real, so I looked at it twice, and then I saw my father sleeping with the portrait all the time, muttering something in his mouth, and listening carefully, I knew that it was such a name."
"Your dad still sleeps with that portrait? He's really infatuated, but what am I? Giving birth to children for him, managing the family and taking care of the accounts for him, but in the end it is not as good as Soho, which is really chilling! ”
When Li Xiuyu said these words, she was very sad in her heart.
She always knew that the person Yan Nian had always liked was Soho, but she didn't expect it to be biased to this point, at that time, Soho had long since disappeared, but Yan Nian still remembered it and never forgot it.
Yan Yun'er looked at her mother's instantly disgraced face, and her mood didn't seem to be very good, so she could only comfort: "Okay, okay, mother, let's not talk about these bad things, we will live our own lives in the future, and you are the wife of the family, why do you want a concubine to be in the limelight all the time?" ”
Li Xiu watched her daughter talk like this, although she was a little relieved in her heart, she was still sad after all.
It was Yannian who gave Soho confidence, and Soho's revenge, in Yannian's opinion, may be nothing.
She knew that sooner or later she would have to pay for what she did, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
Perhaps, it is really to plant melons and get melons, and plant beans to get beans.
Back then, she was incompatible with Soho, and now it can be regarded as retribution.
