Chapter 50: Li Xianglian's News

After Lord Wei finished speaking, he got up and left, leaving Suzaku sitting there alone, not even noticing that Lord Wei had left.

When Suzaku heard the news, he poured it like a bucket of ice water. Not the person you imagined, no! That person's surname is Xia, but his surname is Qin. But what I saw was him, could it be that he drank too much and his eyes were dazzled?

Suzaku still doesn't understand, the person surnamed Xia doesn't know him, so why help himself? Also, Zhu Yuan actually appeared, so it is accurate news that Zhu Du's family moved to Linshan City, but I don't know where to live, Li Xianglian must be there, I must go and see it.

Now that it has opened, the shop is also running normally, and Suzaku has handed over all the things to the shopkeeper Hua to do, but he is idle. Li Xianglian's residence also asked someone to inquire, planning to see Li Xianglian and go to Zhujiazhen.

On this day, after getting accurate information and knowing Li Xianglian's residence, Suzaku bought a gift and went to visit.

Along the way, I gradually approached the city wall, and found the courtyard where Li Xianglian lived. The courtyard looks small, and the gatehouse is simple, with a log-colored gate closed.

Suzaku stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, the door slowly opened.

Suzaku's mood became warmer, and he was excited to meet Li Xianglian soon.

The door opened, and Li Xianglian did not appear, it was the face of a strange woman.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

Suzaku is not sure that this person is the Zhu family, and he knows that Li Xianglian's name is said, but he may not know. He groaned for a moment before speaking.

"Is this Zhu Du's home? I'm from Zhujiazhen, and I'm looking for him for something. ”

"It turns out that someone from my hometown is here, please come in."

The yard is not big, the layout is quite exquisite, and before entering the living room, Zhu Du walked out of the house.

Zhu Du's change is not very big, and looking at Suzaku at this time, it is a completely unfamiliar feeling.

"You are ——?"

Suzaku didn't want to be involved with the Zhu family anymore, and seeing that Zhu Du couldn't recognize himself, he was in harmony with his intentions and directly said his intentions.

"I'm looking for Li Xianglian, is she at home?"

"Who are you? What's the matter with her? ”

Suzaku couldn't find an explanation for a while, she didn't want to say her identity. After a long silence, he made the excuse that Li Dalanto came by himself.

After Zhu Du knew what he meant, his face changed, and his expression couldn't hide his panic.

"She ——, she died, three years ago."

After saying that, he entered the house without looking back.

When Suzaku heard this, it was like being struck by lightning. Li Xianglian is dead? Dead in three years? No, it won't be like this, wasn't Li Xianglian good three years ago? It's still the Qin family she sent herself into.

Suzaku's mind was full of doubts, and there was a heart-rending pain that was tightly suppressed, his eyes were hot, tears poured out instantly, his body seemed to have lost support, and the whole person was shaky.

Seeing Suzaku like this, the woman hurriedly helped Suzaku to sit on the stone bench in the courtyard, and watched Suzaku explain carefully.

"Three years ago, not long after Li Xianglian came to the house, she fell seriously ill and was not saved in the end."

Suzaku couldn't suppress himself anymore, and cried bitterly for a while, before slowly relieving himself.

"Where is she buried? Can I go to her grave? ”

The woman had also been looking at Suzaku, and her intuition told her that the relationship between Suzaku and Li Xianglian was extraordinary. Suddenly, she remembered something and asked Suzaku tentatively.

"Are you Suzaku?"

Suzaku didn't know that anyone would know his name, and in the Zhu family, the name Suzaku was like a plague, and no one mentioned it. Suzaku nodded, and the woman had a knowing look.

"I don't know you, it's just that after Li Xianglian fell ill, she kept mentioning the name Suzaku, and said that Suzaku was still alive, and after she recovered from her illness, she went back to Zhujia Town and never came back. But the whole family thought she was talking nonsense, and no one believed her. I saw that you were so sad, so I tried to ask, but I didn't think it was really you. What is your relationship with her? ”

Suzaku wondered in his heart the identity of this person, it seems that he should have been in the Zhu family for a long time. But when I was in Zhujia Town, I didn't see her, and I should have come to Zhu's house after coming to Shancheng. Moreover, looking at Zhu Du's relationship with her, it is not like a master and servant.

When the woman saw Suzaku's puzzled look, she instantly understood the reason and explained with a smile.

"I am Zhu Du's wife, and I married Zhu Du after he came to Linshan City three years ago. At that time, I didn't know that there was Li Xianglian, and it wasn't until Li Xianglian came to the door that I knew that she was Zhu Yuan and Zhu Jie's mother. What I didn't expect was that she couldn't afford to get sick and finally left. ”

Suzaku sighed a little, the difference between the status of men and women in this society is too great, men can have three wives and four concubines, and women must start from the beginning, and there must be no complaints. Before coming to the mountain city, the Zhu family was surrounded by walls, although Li Xianglian's status was low, but it was not so bad, and the Zhu family also counted on Li Xianglian to teach her husband and children, and she refused to go too far. I don't know why my family got rich and came to Linshan City with my family, Zhu Du should take a concubine, and he didn't care about who Li Xianglian was.

"I am her adopted daughter, so that she raised me from a young age. So, I'm going to her grave to worship. ”

The woman nodded, went into the house to clean up, and then took Suzaku to the place where Li Xianglian was buried.

Zhu Du's house is by the city wall, not far from the city gate, and Li Xianglian is buried on the earthen hill not far from the city.

When she came to the grave, Suzaku thanked the woman and told her to go first.

In early spring, grass emerges, but it is still buried by decaying grass. Suzaku squatted on the ground, picked up the loess with his hands, and planted it on the grave little by little. What came to my heart was the bits and pieces with Li Xianglian.

His hand was pierced by something hard in the soil, and Suzaku was unaware of it, still repeating mechanically. Finally, the unconcealable sadness made Suzaku break down again, and he knelt in front of the grave and wept.

In the distance, a figure walked up, looked at the scene in front of him, stopped, and wiped his eyes with his cuffs from time to time.

Suzaku regretted it very much, regretting that he had separated from Li Xianglian at the beginning. I just want to have a better life in the future, and I am taking Li Xianglian back, who knows that breaking up is goodbye. The body when she was reborn didn't leave much consciousness to herself, but Li Xianglian's maternal love was her deepest true affection in this world. The son wants to raise but does not wait, and the grief of eternal separation between heaven and man cuts his heart like a knife.

Time passed little by little, Suzaku was still so sad that she couldn't help herself, and the figure walked over, bent down, and called softly.

"Suzaku, don't cry anymore, don't cry to the bottom of your body."

Suzaku gradually woke up from his grief and slowly regained his senses. Straightening up, Fang felt someone beside him, raised his already red and swollen eyes, and a person's face appeared in the haze of tears. At first glance, Suzaku rubbed his eyes again, and when he looked at it again, he couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's you ——?"
