Chapter 140: Providence Makes People
Su Jiudong just wanted to coax Su Ting'an, but he didn't really agree to follow Wen Yiheng into Beijing.
But looking at the child's serious and excited tone, Su Jiudong suddenly paused, and couldn't help but regret that he had to mention going to the capital, and remembered the story of Zengzi killing pigs for a while.
Zengzi used his actions to teach children to be true to their words and honest to others. At the same time, this story also teaches adults that their words and deeds have a great impact on children.
Be sincere and not deceive others, otherwise you will educate your children to be insincere people.
Su Jiudong looked at Su Ting'an, and the two of them stared at each other and were silent for a while.
Su Tingan seemed to understand what Su Jiudong meant by silence, and the child's eyes suddenly lost their light, and the corners of his mouth that were raised high also drooped.
"An'er understands, A-Niang is just lying to An'er..."Su Ting'an muttered to Su Jiudong aggrievedly, tears gradually filling her eyes.
Su Jiudong hugged Su Ting'an tightly in his arms, and comforted Su Ting'an with pity: "An'er misunderstood, A-Niang didn't lie to you, A-Niang means that in the future, A-Dad can still come to Hangzhou to pick up An'er and go to the capital to play." ”
"So Auntie still doesn't agree with us going to live in the capital with Daddy." Six-year-old Su Tingan sensitively captured the implicit meaning of Su Jiudong's words.
"Isn't it bad in Hangzhou? Hangzhou also has things in the capital, why does An'er have to go to the capital? ”
"Because there is a daddy in the capital!" Su Ting'an's words hit Su Jiudong's key point: "An'er wants Daddy, Auntie, Grandma and Sister to be together, and she doesn't want to be separated." ”
There is a daddy in the capital...... Su Jiudong's biological father, Su Fenglan, is also in the capital.
If Wen Yiheng really returned to the capital, and they continued to stay in Qishan County, An'er would have no father's company and care in the future.
Su Jiudong did not have a father with him in his childhood, did he want to deprive Su Tingan of his desire for his father and let the child repeat his mistakes?
Su Jiudong looked at Su Ting'an, and then at Wen Yiheng, who was sleeping on the bed, and the heavens and men were at war in their hearts.
"Daddy is good to An'er, gives An'er good food, and protects An'er and Sister Arong, An'er doesn't want to live without Daddy." Su Ting'an himself said vigorously, and he didn't notice Su Jiudong's momentary distraction.
In the end, Su Jiudong, who was still struggling fiercely in his heart, still didn't give Su Ting'an the promise he wanted, Liu Yunniang took Su Ting'an and Ah Rong out of Wen Yiheng's room, and Su Jiudong stayed to continue to take care of him.
Not long after Su Ting'an left, Wen Yiheng woke up quietly, and his vague and confused eyes gradually became clear after seeing Su Jiudong who was guarding the bedside.
"You're awake...... Drink the medicine first. Su Jiudong hurriedly took the decoction that had been warm beside him, helped Wen Yiheng to lie down on his side, and carefully fed Wen Yiheng the medicine, completely ignoring Wen Yiheng's eyes that were sometimes burning and sometimes lost.
"You still don't want to go back to Beijing with me?" Wen Yiheng's tone was soft and gentle, like a weak and aggrieved leopard, which was very inconsistent with the image of being resolute and decisive in daily life.
"Did you hear it all?" Since Wen Yiheng could hear the conversation between Su Jiudong and Su Ting'an, did he wake up a long time ago, but he didn't want her to know?
Wen Yiheng said with grievances: "I only vaguely heard An'er crying, I heard you fooling him, and I didn't want to go back to Beijing with me... I thought that after this time, you would agree to go back to Beijing with me. After all, only you can cure me of the poison in my body. ”
"However, after I return to Beijing, the prince's side will probably continue to attack me, and the situation will be even more dangerous. It's okay if you don't go back with me, at least you can stay safely in Qishan County and live a peaceful life... It's me who is too selfish to encourage you to go back with me. ”
Su Jiudong saw that Wen Yiheng was depressed and looked sick, and he felt even more guilty: "You don't have to say that, I know you are not a selfish person." At present, you should take care of your body first, and you are not in a hurry to return to Beijing, the school captain should have already spread the situation to the capital. ”
Wen Yiheng still kept talking: "Although I don't have to rush back to Beijing for the time being, I still have to go back at the end of the year." When the time comes, without you by my side, I don't know who I can heal my sick body. ”
Wen Yiheng smiled self-deprecatingly: "...... Oh, it's okay if you don't get it. Anyway, with so many toxins accumulated in my body, I don't think I will live long. I am tired of the open and secret battles in the court, but I am so caught in it that I can no longer leave, and I will be relieved to die sooner. ”
Wen Yiheng in this illness was different from An Ran when he was poisoned and sick in the past, this time his mood was very low, and his mood fluctuated greatly, Su Jiudong wondered if Wen Yiheng had been hit by something she didn't know, so she was so depressed. Zero Zero Book House
"No, it won't!" Su Jiudong immediately refuted Wen Yiheng's negative thoughts: "As the prime minister, you assist the government and assist the Holy God in governing the world, so that the people can live a happy life, accumulate blessings and longevity, and you will definitely live a long life." Don't say these discouraged words. ”
Wen Yiheng's mood became more and more depressed: "As the prime minister, I failed to make the government clear, but continued to fight; As a husband, he did not protect his wife well, and he still broke his trust in her; As a father, he failed to give An'er the best company, which disappointed him..."
“… I couldn't even help General Su and help him bring back his long-lost daughter so that he could enjoy his family. I've accomplished nothing, and I'm not as good as you describe. ”
Wen Yiheng mentioned "father" twice, and the soft place in Su Jiudong's heart was hit again.
Su Jiudong was annoyed by Wen Yiheng's low and negative attitude, like an old mother taking care of her young child, and hurriedly coaxed Wen Yiheng: "Actually, I am still willing to go to the capital with you in my heart." ”
"But as soon as I think of going to the capital, I will be taken by you to meet Su Fenglan, I can't accept it for the time being."
Su Jiudong said the last reason why he was always reluctant to enter Beijing: "Su Fenglan abandoned my biological mother for no reason, and I don't want to recognize him as such a biological father." Without him as a father, I would be doing well now. ”
Su Jiudong's true confession finally made Wen Yiheng suddenly realize. Wen Yiheng hurriedly argued for Su Fenglan: "It's all because I didn't make it clear to you before, in fact, General Su didn't abandon your biological mother and you, the two of them were forced to separate." ”
"You're not him, how do you know if he's abandoned our mother and daughter?" Su Jiudong didn't believe Wen Yiheng's words for the time being, but he thought that he was trying to coax her to change her mind and enter Beijing.
"At that time, after Aunt Liu showed me the Hetian jade bracelet and the handwriting on it, I immediately sent a letter to General Su who was far away in the capital, detailing the reason why I recognized you. General Su also wrote back to me, telling me the ins and outs of the year. ”
Wen Yiheng pointed to the opposite bookcase with a little excitement, his face flushed with sickness, and said hurriedly: "There is a red cover on the bookcase of Zhang Juzheng's "Imperial Illustrated Book", and General Su's reply to me is sandwiched inside. If you don't believe it, take it and see it. ”
Su Jiudong followed Wen Yiheng's instructions to find the reply in the study sandwiched in the "Emperor's Illustrated Book", and browsed it carefully.
"General Su mentioned in the letter that your biological mother Yu Ruoyao was born in Hangzhou, and later the Yu family fell into the middle of the family for some reason, and she was the only surviving member of the Yu family by her distant cousin, General Su's mother, Mrs. Su, to live in the general's mansion in the capital."
Su Fenglan's family are all military generals.
Since Su Fenglan's great-grandfather's generation, he began to join the army, and then accumulated military merits to achieve the position of general, so the descendants inherited their father's business, and every generation joined the army, so the Su family in the capital is full of loyal martyrs, and the general's mansion where they live is also the ancestral house that has been handed down.
"Then your mother and General Su also became childhood sweethearts." Speaking of this, Wen Yiheng slowed down his speech and softened his voice, trying to describe it so that Su Jiudong's impression of Su Fenglan changed slightly.
Listening to Wen Yiheng's description, Su Jiudong conceived a picture of Miss Wen Wan and the young general sincerely falling in love in his mind. It's a pity that providence makes people, Su Fenglan and Yu Ruoyao were separated in the end, and a lover can't become a fairy couple that everyone envies.
"At that time, there was a war in northern Xinjiang, and General Su originally planned to marry your mother after joining the army for two years and coming back, but Mrs. Su thought that your mother and General Su were not a good match, so she did not agree to the marriage of the two of them."
Su Jiudong frowned suddenly, and shook his head very disapprovingly about the practice of paying attention to the right people in ancient times.
Su Jiudong, who has crossed over from modern times, has always adhered to the modern concept of freedom of marriage and love, but this concept does not work at all in the ancient times when the order of parents and matchmakers were important.
Wen Yiheng saw Su Jiudong's slight displeasure, so he tried his best to be tactful: "In order to fulfill Mrs. Su's deathbed wish, General Su plans to pretend to visit the official lady, first deceive the critically ill old mother, and wait for her to pass away safely before settling other matters." ”
Hearing this, Su Jiudong frowned again: "Since he planned to pretend to deceive Old Madam Su, why didn't he inform my mother in advance, so that it would not cause many misunderstandings later, and the two of them might have a chance to be together later......"
Wen Yiheng said helplessly: "I'm not General Su, and I don't know why General Su didn't inform your mother of this plan in advance." But I also agree with you that if both sides had been more honest with each other, there would have been no regrets. ”
Su Jiudong glared at Wen Yiheng, who was still sick, and said in a very unhappy tone:
"You also know that honesty... Then why didn't you tell me immediately after learning that I was the daughter of a general? Why didn't you tell me that your real identity is the Prime Minister? Why didn't you tell me that you were An'er's biological father......"
Su Jiudong summed up for a while, and suddenly found that Wen Yiheng actually hid so many things from her, and her mood suddenly became even worse, and the eyes of Wen Yiheng were full of fire.
If it weren't for the fact that Wen Yiheng was currently seriously injured and there was still poison in his body, Su Jiudong couldn't wait to punch Wen Yiheng's very deceptive handsome face.
