regret
Seeing Su Yue open the door, although Su Pingbao was a little surprised, he quickly recovered, this is the residence of the sister and brother, it is indeed quite a coincidence, as for when the sister and brother changed, he didn't want to ask, so he silently followed the little guy into the house and sit, thinking of the things he just knew before, his mind was still a little messy. "You, you go back first......" Su Yue glanced at Mu Jingsheng, and her voice couldn't help but become smaller.
Mu Jingsheng looked at the little girl's shy and uncomfortable little appearance, and couldn't help but want to tease, reached out to hold the little girl's palm and entered the courtyard gate, and then closed the door intimately.
Su Yue was stunned the moment she was holding hands, and she was still a little confused this time: "You, why did you come in?" ”
Mu Jingsheng looked at her a little stupid, very rare, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he bowed his head and said, "There are strangers in your house, I don't worry." ”
Su Yue's ears were slightly itchy by his low voice, and she was stunned: "That, that's not a stranger, it's a relative, you ......"
The slightly calloused palm covered her small mouth, and Su Yue's unfinished words were instantly blocked, and her good-looking eyes blinked, not cute.
Mu Jingsheng felt that her heart was teased by her cute reaction, and her low voice couldn't help but be slightly hoarse: "I'm not leaving." ”
Su Yue's face turned red, her heart trembled, she opened his hand in a panic and jumped away, and said in shame: "Whatever you want!" With that, the little girl ran away.
Fortunately, Su Yue was annoyed, and she didn't go directly into the house, but ran to the kitchen, otherwise this embarrassing appearance would be seen by Su Pingrui and Su Pingbao, and Su Yue would definitely die socially at that time. Mu Jingsheng looked at the little girl's back and smiled lowly, and then entered the house with a calm expression, he stayed for the safety of the little girl, so naturally he had to keep an eye on this "stranger" who broke in.
Su Pingbao's spirit stabilized after drinking the hot tea that Su Pingrui made for him, but his frowning brows never let go. Seeing Mu Jingsheng come in, he didn't ask more curiously, since the other party appeared with Su Yue's sister and brother, it should be someone who knew him, not to mention that he didn't have the heart to think about other things now, the things he heard in the Li family today, seeing the haggard sister, Su Pingbao was facing the first three-view baptism in his life.
Originally, Su Pingbao would not go alone, after all, Mrs. Su and Mrs. Su would take him to Li's house to pay New Year's greetings every year after the fifth day of the New Year, but until the seventh day of the New Year, Mrs. Su and Boss Su did not make any moves, Su Pingbao originally wanted to ask, but thinking of the appearance of Su Li's family at home a year ago, he hesitated again. I struggled in my heart to wait for Su Li's to come back in two days, because at that time, Su Li's family obviously said that he would come back to Su's house after the New Year's Festival, but after waiting for two days in a row, Su Li's and Su Mo didn't come home, Su Pingrui was a little panicked, and at this moment he could no longer believe his grandmother and father's words.
Throughout the New Year, Boss Su and Mrs. Su did not mention Su Mo's mother and daughter once, as if they were deliberately avoiding them, and every time he asked, their faces were not right, and their answers were very perfunctory, he felt that something must have happened at home. Seeing that the vacation of the academy would end in two days, Su Pingbao did not dare to delay, and went directly to the Li family alone, and then he naturally saw Su Li and Su Mo in the Li family.
Su Mo has been hiding in the house in the Li family, washing her face with tears all day long, and experiencing that experience is tantamount to a great shame for her, even if she is rescued by the Li family in time, Su Mo also knows that her life is hopeless in the future, and the daughter who has been sold once, the good family will come to propose marriage, and her family affairs must be the next choice...... And the one who caused all this was her own grandmother, her father! She couldn't forget the appearance of Mrs. Su holding the box and staring at her like crazy at that time, and the cowardly appearance of her father lying on the ground when she was pulled away, not daring to say anything.
She knew that the family must be rich, and there must be no less than sixty taels in the box that her grandmother was guarding, because the New Year was coming soon, and her brother had to hand over the ties, which was the best academy in the county, and it was fifty taels of silver a year. Every time she thought of this, Su Mo shivered, she knew that her grandmother had always been patriarchal, and in her eyes, she was not as good as a finger of her brother, but she never expected that she would be humble to this point.
Su Mo looked at her mother a lot of haggard appearance every day, and became more and more sad and sad, her grandmother and grandfather fell ill for her business, she knew that her uncle and aunts also cared about her and her mother, and never gave her a look. The little girl who experienced this experience saw clearly for the first time what family is and what relatives are, and it turns out that only the Li family really loves them...... This is also the reason why Su Mo is willing to stay in the Li family all the time.
But when Su Pingrui entered the house and appeared in front of her, Su Mo hid in fear, and now she doesn't believe anyone except her mother and the Li family. Especially the people of the Su family, so even if Su Pingbao is her own brother, she is still on guard, not to mention that at that time, her grandmother would rather sell her granddaughter in order to protect her brother's restraints, how does she know if this brother will treat her like a mustard like her grandmother and father.
"Amo......" Su Pingbao was stunned when he looked at his sister's posture of avoiding and defending him, and then saw his sister's emaciated and haggard appearance, and he was even more distressed and uncomfortable, but Su Mo couldn't see this appearance at all, just silently hid aside, not even raising his head.
Seeing this, Su Li's family who followed behind had no choice but to take Su Pingbao away, her daughter was originally raised by her to be more delicate, and her courage was not as big as that of the daughters in the village, and now this really scared the child and woke her up, but if you want to teach your daughter well, you have to wait for the child to recover, so Su Li didn't say much or do anything now. And she knew about Mrs. Su protecting the box, and after Su Mo came back, she cried and told her several times, and the blood-dripping heartache made Su Li's heart cold, and it was also because of this incident that Su Li made up her mind to leave the Su family.
After Su Li came out with Su Pingbao, he just touched his son's face, and then handed over other things to his brother, and the girl still needs her to comfort, now the situation of the girl is what she is most worried about, and she really doesn't want to say those to the child in person, these unbearable things she has been trying her best to hide and sweep away, and now she wants to tear it open herself, how can she do it? Leave the unbearable truth to others......
Su Pingbao became more and more anxious after seeing Su Mo, and he found that the matter was far more serious than he imagined, this was not like a dispute between his mother and grandmother, fortunately, the boss of the Li family did not delay much, patted his nephew, and took Su Pingbao into the house and sat down, and then said slowly, from the fact that Su Boss wanted to sell Su Yue, and then sold Su Mo, everything he knew was clearly said, without adding oil and vinegar at all, and not missing a word.
Later, Su Pingbao didn't know how he left the Li family, after listening to his uncle finish talking about those things, he felt that his head was muddy, and after he came back to his senses, he had already met Su Yue's sister and brother in the village, and it was not until this moment that he really came back to his senses, and his mind was much clearer.
"Brother Lobby, I'll go prepare some food, and you can go back after eating later." Su Yue entered the house and looked at Su Pingbao and said politely, after all, she was a guest, Su Yue didn't want to be lazy, and relatives also wanted to have a meal, not to mention that Su Pingbao's situation obviously needed to be taken care of.
Looking at the calm and moderate girl in front of him, Su Pingbao never imagined that such a little girl would be bullied by his grandmother and parents all the time, forced to marry by his grandmother to jump into the river, and secretly sold by his father to human traffickers...... Thinking of this, Su Pingbao felt that his face was red and he felt guilty. Fortunately, fortunately, my cousin survived and was not succeeded by my grandmother and father, but what did his sister do wrong? Why can grandma and father be so ruthless? Watching Ah Mo be taken away by traffickers? Thinking of this, Su Pingbao's breath became unstable again, and the whole person looked angry and helpless.
Su Yue looked at the teenager who was suddenly in the wrong mood, and was a little panicked, was she so difficult that she said the wrong thing? Didn't you? She asked about the meal?!
"Brother Lobby? Are you okay? Su Pingrui grabbed Su Pingbao's clenched fist and asked worriedly.
Feeling the warmth of his little palm, Su Pingbao suddenly came back to his senses, looking at the worried look of his little cousin, his heart became more and more ashamed, even if he didn't participate in those things at all, but what was the difference between what his parents did and what he did? The son inherits the debt of his father, and he should bear their anger, but now he is being taken care of by his sister and brother......
"Brother Lobby, are you not feeling well? Why don't you lie down and rest? Su Yue stepped forward and said, she felt that this young man's mood was very wrong.
Looking up and seeing the girl's worried look, Su Pingbao shook his head in shame, their sister and brother were still so worried about him at the moment and took care of him as a relative, but how could he, the lobby brother, accept such a good thing? For so many years, he didn't know anything about his family, and he never persuaded his parents and grandmother to stop him, and he studied in vain since he was a child, and he was dedicated to being a sage, but it was so false and ridiculous......
"Ah Yue, Ah Rui...... I'm fine, I'm ......" Su Pingbao's heart seemed to be burning, and guilt and unbearable facts tore at his conscience.
When Su Yue was looking at him blankly, Su Pingbao stood up and bowed to her resolutely" "I'm sorry!" ”
Su Yue was shocked and wanted to step forward to help, but when she thought of the men's and women's defense, she stopped her movements again, and could only signal Su Pingrui to help Su Pingbao up.
Su Pingbao is a weak scholar in the end, Su Pingrui has been practicing for more than half a month, this strength is steady, and he will be helped up in two clicks.
"Brother Hall, why do you have to apologize? You don't have anything to be sorry for my sister? Su Pingbao looked at him with some doubts, in his opinion, this lobby brother has always been not close to their sister and brother, and he has no contact at all, why should he apologize?
Su Pingbao looked at the bitter and pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "Ah Rui, I'm sorry, I just found out today that grandma and daddy have treated you badly over the years...... And what is done to you...... I'm sorry that the lobby brother didn't stop them and didn't protect you......"
In Su Pingbao's opinion, these things are not done by Mrs. Su and Mrs. Su, the two sisters and brothers who are already orphans are pitiful, and their family, as the closest relatives of the two, should help and support them, which Cheng thinks it will be like that? In the past, when he saw the miserable appearance of the two during the New Year's Festival, he couldn't help but ask, but the three of them said in unison that they were sisters and brothers who were lonely and unwilling to get close to them. just sighed in his heart, and then he was away from home for many years, and these things were gradually forgotten by him, how could he think that the truth was so?
Hearing this, Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it wasn't something else, it was just a previous thing, and she didn't panic in her heart.
When Su Pingrui heard this, he pursed his mouth, turned his head to look at his sister who was still calm, and then looked up at Su Pingbao and said seriously: "Brother Hall, it's not your fault, you have been in the school, not at home, I don't know if you don't blame you, moreover, grandma doesn't like us It's grandma's business, it has nothing to do with you, the eldest uncle and aunt are your elders, and you can't control them...... Brother Lobby, neither you nor my cousin have hurt me or my sister, I won't be angry with you, and besides, you were children like us before, and you couldn't care about adult affairs. ”
Su Pingbao was surprised when he heard this, and was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Ah Rui, Brother Lobby is not as sensible as you." ”
Su Pingrui looked at him, tilted his little head and said seriously: "Brother Lobby, I don't blame you, but I won't forgive my grandmother and uncle and aunt, my sister and I won't go to the old mansion in the future, and I won't treat them as elders anymore, I won't repay my grievances with virtue." ”
Su Pingbao was stunned again, he didn't expect that the little cousin who had only studied enlightenment would be able to say such a thing, and sighed with a wry smile: "Okay, I will watch my father and grandmother in the future, and I will definitely not let them do anything bad again." Ari, don't repay your grievances with virtue. ”
Why should you repay your grievances with virtue? His little cousin was only so young, and he had been sick and weak before, his grandmother was so cruel to her grandson, and pushed Ah Mo out to replace the silver money without hesitation, Su Pingbao suddenly felt cold.
Su Yue understood this moment, it seems that Su Pingbao seems to know something terrible? "Brother Lobby, did you encounter something today?" Why do you suddenly care about family matters? ”
Su Pingbao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Su Yue for a while before he was uneasy and said: "Ah Mo and his mother have been at her grandfather's house since that day, and grandma and father said that they were because their grandfather and grandmother were sick, and they had to take care of them, but they didn't even come back for the New Year...... I didn't feel at ease, so I went to my grandfather's house today. ”
Hearing this, Su Yue understood, this was Su Pingbao looking for his mother and sister, and then what happened in the Li family, and knowing what happened before, which caused these two good students who didn't listen to things outside the window and only read sage books to shatter their three views! No wonder he looks like he has been hit and lost his soul.
"I see, is Amo okay? I'm sorry, but I was limited in my ability at the time...... I can't help it. Su Yue was slightly surprised when she heard that Su Mo was in the Li family, when she saw the little girl being taken away, she didn't have any senses for Su Mo, and it wasn't her who sold Su Mo, so she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong, if you want to blame Mrs. Su and Boss Su for taking two wolf-hearted dogs.
Su Pingbao's eyes darkened slightly, thinking of his sister, his heart was bitter: "Ah Mo was rescued by his maternal uncle at that time, fortunately, the fast person who went was not sent away, otherwise...... Now that my mother and Ah Mo are at my grandfather's house, you don't have to feel guilty, this incident was caused by my father, and you are also a victim, I'm sorry, Ah Yue, I will definitely protect you in the future, and I will never let grandma and my father beat you again, I, I won't break my word! ”
Looking at the young man's guilty and serious appearance, Su Yue sighed slightly in her heart, this baby bump in the Su family's old mansion is not crooked, and the three views are still positive.
"Okay, Brother Lobby is a scholar, we all believe in you, you must be able to do it, the previous things have passed, Brother Lobby doesn't have to mind. We have suffered some grievances as younger generations, but there is nothing, but Ah Mo was taken away in the end, and the clansmen were also watching at that time, this reputation ...... Brother Lobby, you have to think about how Amo should live in the future...... "Su Yue is well-educated in the end, and it has always been her style of acting to treat people with things, Su Pingbao has never bullied the original owner's sister and brother, and now she is also a good one, she will not show her face.
Even thinking of Su Mo's situation, Su Yue kindly reminded Su Pingbao, thinking that Su Pingbao would not realize this problem for a while, and when he realized it, it would probably be too late...... After all, if she remembers correctly, Su Mo is the same age as the original owner, which means that after this year, Su Mo will also be fifteen...... Girls of this age are already about to start looking at each other and preparing to get married, and Su Mo's reputation is damaged, and marriage will inevitably be hindered. According to the customs of people marrying, Su Mo must decide on a family before the age of sixteen, otherwise the government will intervene and be directly matched by the official media.
After Su Yue's prompt, Su Pingbao woke up in an instant, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he regretted it even more in his heart, he didn't even think of this problem! My sister's reputation is damaged, and family affairs are bound to be difficult to handle, and the official media is well known for what virtue is, even if he doesn't inquire, he knows it.
"Ah Yue, I want you to remind me, I will definitely take it to heart." Su Pingbao sincerely thanked him, and at this moment, the guilt of the sister and brother couldn't help but deepen a lot, although Su Pingrui bluntly said just now that he would not repay his grievances with virtue, but now what Su Yue is doing is not another kind of revenge with virtue?
After Su Pingbao thanked him, he looked at Su Yue for a moment, and then said with a slightly unnatural face: "Ah Yue, you are the same age as Ah Mo, and it is time to discuss marriage this year, my uncle is no longer there, and there are only grandma and father at home...... But they, if Ah Yue is not at ease, can I find a matchmaker for you to inquire? Su Pingrui looked at Su Yue and said sincerely, he really wanted to take this matter.
