There is a flat hill across a mountain stream opposite the 'princess mausoleum', and there was originally a large bamboo forest on the flat hill. Not long ago, it was changed on a small scale, and a clearing was created in the bamboo forest, and the clearing was transformed into a forest garden by planting trees and flowers.

Ah Xiao walked around the garden twice and didn't find anything unusual that could interest her, so she was a little unhappy, "Second Master Su, what do you want to do?" Before lunch, he took me up the mountain, and there was nothing fun here! Let's go home...".

"I didn't bring you here for fun, it's because my secret is buried here..."As soon as Su Chen said half a sentence, Ah Xiao became interested, and hurriedly asked, "What secret, can I know?" ”。

"Of course, it's our common secret!" Su Chen replied with a smile, "I brought you here, that is, I want to tell you..."

Ah Xiao was very satisfied with his ability to share secrets with him, and asked mysteriously, "Is there any treasure buried under here?" Evidence of corruption and bribery on behalf of you, the owner? ”。

"What do you want, girl? Don't be kidding..."Su Chen smiled bitterly, he had never had such an idea, because he didn't have to be corrupt and bribed, he was already worth a lot of money.

"Okay, so what do you say is buried underneath?" Ah Xiao also knows that this kind of joke is easy to be misunderstood.

Su Chen leaned over and picked a wildflower that was blooming brightly and inserted it on Ah Xiao's sideburns, then hugged her and replied, "This is the cemetery, of course there are buried under these flowers..."

"Huh? Cemetery? Ah Xiao was startled and wanted to rush out, if it was a cemetery, there must be a lot of dead people buried underneath, would she stand here and disturb those deceased souls? If one of the guys below is upset, will he give her nightmares at night to get revenge on her?

"Don't be afraid, it's fine. In addition to this piece of flowers and plants, there is actually nothing underneath here, just for others to see..."Su Chen stopped her and smiled, "The thickest purple bamboo has words engraved on it, you can see it...".

On the outermost side of the garden, there is really a thick purple bamboo, which is neatly engraved with four big characters in imitation Song style: Su Chen's flute.

The handwriting is very clear, as if it was left not long ago, and the handwriting is also very familiar, and she knows who wrote it without asking after reading it for more than ten years.

"What do you mean?" Ah Xiao asked puzzledly, "Second master, why are you practicing calligraphy on bamboo, is it for environmental protection?" ”。

Ah Xiao is usually a good boy who is a little bit clear about Bingxue Congyin, but today I just didn't understand his good intentions?

"Yes! Dust to dust, dust to dust, after this purple bamboo withered and yellowed, no one will remember what place this used to be..."Su Chen didn't think too much to explain, he knew that Ah Xiao understood.

Ah Xiao bit his lip and asked again, "Su Chen's flute?" Does that mean I'm supposed to be your person? Second master, you show your feelings so secretly, aren't you afraid that someone will doubt you? ”。

"No!" Su Chen explained, "Su Xiao is just my adopted daughter, and she can't be buried in the ancestral grave of the Su family after she dies unexpectedly according to the rules." I'm burying her here to abide by the clan rules, how do you want to get anyone, who dares to care about me? ”。

"Hmm... That's right, too! Ah Xiao agreed with this statement, "Second master, you are the acting owner, powerful and face-saving." In the future, I will live with you, even if I will suffer hardships and be tired to help you take care of the housekeeper and give you children, but I think it will definitely be very beautiful and happy...".

Su Chen put his arm around her shoulders and promised in her ear, "Yes, I will make you happy!" ”。

"Your biological father is actually surnamed Su, and when he was studying, he was two realms higher than me and was my senior brother. He was very good-looking, and he was a well-known talent in the school at that time, and he was the target of many girls. Your mother is also a talented and beautiful woman, and she and your father love each other very much, but at that time..."Su Chen sighed lightly and did not finish.

"My mom... Isn't it a stunning beauty? Ah Xiao urged, "Go on, you don't like her too, do you?" ”。

"Huh? No..."Su Chen was slightly stunned, he had never thought about this question.

Ah Xiao didn't pay attention to his rebuttal, and naturally analyzed, "Is it because you also like my mother, but she was snatched away by my father." Later, in order to take revenge on them, you wanted to raise me and then occupy me to avenge the hatred of taking my wife? ”。

Su Chen had no choice but to smile bitterly, and then asked, "Wife, you have such a good imagination, why don't you write fantasy novels?" The hatred of taking away his wife, it's not like that at all! ”。

"Oh... Did I think too much? Ah Xiao smiled mischievously, "Teasing you, I know that only I am your fate." That... And then, what kind of story? Since they are both excellent and love each other so much, why didn't they stay together with each other, but threw me to you, an elm head, and why did they go? ”。

Su Chen hugged Ah Xiao and let her lean into his arms, and said very seriously, "The story I will tell next... It's a tragedy. But it's been a long time since those things happened, don't take it to heart after you hear it, just think it's a story, with me, I'll make up for what you've lost to you, trust me! ”。

"Sad... Drama? Ah Xiao couldn't help but tremble, "You mean... They're all... He's dead? ”。

Su Chen just smiled, and then said, "Your father was originally a wealthy young master from a prominent family, and he is also a bit of a distant relative to the Yanliu Su family. That's why we've always been good friends...".

"He's going to entrust me to you, isn't he?" Ah Xiao asked again, "Where is my mother?" She... Where did she go? ”。

"Don't ask, will you listen to me tell you slowly?" Su Chen smiled again, he didn't want her to be too nervous.

Ah Xiao looked at him and didn't speak, and nodded after a while. When she was first taken back to Yanliu Villa by Su Chen, she was seriously ill, and she didn't remember a lot of things before.

"Your mother is a beautiful woman with both talents and good looks, but... But she's just a normal daughter, and she has a very serious hereditary heart disease, so your grandparents have always disapproved of their relationship...".

"Is it because of the fear of lowering the genetic standards of the family? So they just... Break them apart, and don't recognize me as a child, do you? ”。

Su Chen hesitated for a moment before nodding, but then explained, "This is only one of the reasons, and there is another problem... The family backgrounds between them are so different that your grandparents were eager to get your father to join the financially powerful in-laws to save their family from bankruptcy...".

Ah Xiao suddenly grabbed Su Chen's arm and asked, "No, don't divert the topic!" Is hereditary heart disease also inherited to me? You've been spoiling me for so many years, do you know that I won't live long at all? ”。

"It's not! Girl, listen to me..."Su Chen has always avoided the important and lightly told the story, but he, a very smart and delicate wife, still heard the essence of the problem.

"What else to say? Su Chen, you are stupid, it's not worth wasting so much time and effort on me, fortunately, we haven't really become a husband and wife yet, we... Divorce, right? Ah Xiao pushed Su Chen away and wanted to leave him, she could die, but she couldn't bear to drag him into hell too, then he would never recover.

Su Chen reacted quickly at this time and hugged her in his arms, "Wife, don't make trouble, or... Let's do it now, shall we? ”。

"Huh? Do what? Ah Xiao's brain was dull and he asked.

"Be a husband and wife..."Su Chen smiled, he actually learned to joke and gag out of place at this time.

"You still say this? You... It's so bad..."Ah Xiao cried when she leaned on Su Chen's shoulder, and she was reluctant to leave her if she really wanted to.

"It's all gone!" Su Chen hugged her tightly and asked, "Mrs. Su, should I continue to tell the story or go home to sleep?" ”。

"Speak! Don't talk about it halfway through, do you want to hang anyone's appetite? Ah Xiao reprimanded, "Go on, I want to hear the ending...".

"Yes, wife!" Su Chen kissed her on the lips very gently, and then continued, "Because the opposition in the family is too strong, your father broke off contact with the family and took your mother to live in a small village in the countryside. Soon there will be you...".

"It's good, aren't they all together?" Ah Xiao couldn't help but comment again, "I haven't been separated alive, I can be regarded as a lover who has finally become a family." I was just scared by you, how miserable did I think? ”。

Su Chen shook his head and sighed again, "That's just the beginning!" Do you really think that the princess and the prince will live happily ever after riding away on a white horse? The suffering of the world and the cruelty of existence, you have not seen and cannot understand...".

"That's... And then? Did my mom abandon us and fly away? Ah Xiao asked, "Although I have seen her photos before, why don't I remember my mother at all?" ”。

Su Chen shook his head again, he was thinking about how to make a very sad fact better, he had to let Ah Xiao know the truth and minimize the harm to her.
