XXVII. Reconciliation
Have a rude awakening.
Before she could open her eyes to meet the sun, all the pain in her body hit her, and she secretly scolded the old thing that tied her up more than a dozen times before she barely managed to stand up and sit up.
Looking at the familiar veil above his head and the furnishings in the house, Su Jili secretly breathed a sigh of relief knowing that he had picked up a life and came back.
"I don't know what happened to my brother."
"Brother......
Thinking of the jade pendant that Chu Ruyan dangled in front of his eyes that day, Su Zhenli was a little stunned, but it was quickly broken.
"How did you wake up? Quick, lie down. Don't touch the wound, the doctor said that you can't move at will now" Liu Niang's familiar voice poured into her ears, and she felt a little kind in the rest of her life after this kind of catastrophe.
Helping her to lean on the soft pillow and drinking the medicine for her with her own hands, Liu Niang relaxed a little.
But this warmth didn't last long, and it was dissipated by endless nagging.
"Miss can't run around at random next time......"
"This time, the master must be very angry, and when I see him in a while, I have to bow my head first and admit my mistake, do you know......"
"If Madame is seeing Miss like this, she should be distressed......"
These words have been whispered in her ear over and over again for many years since she can remember, and now they are turned out again, and she can't help but have a headache in her heart.
"Liu Niang." There was some anger in the voice of the daughter's family.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to say it"
"You are now recovering from a serious illness, you need to take good care of it, you know?"
"Oh." The tone sounded absent-minded
"But what do you want to eat? I told the kitchenette to make it for you."
Su Jili shook his head a little smugly.
Seeing her like this, Liu Niang thought that she was embarrassed to speak because she wanted Su Zhensheng, so she pretended to be a little casual and said
"The young master woke up a little earlier than you, and as soon as he woke up, he hurriedly came to see you."
āā¦ā¦ā
She didn't want to hear anything about him at the moment, in other words, she hadn't figured out how to face him after knowing some truth. All she could do was put her head under the quilt and look for a moment to forget.
Seeing her react like this, Liu Niang was even more puzzled, what happened to her brother who shouted sweeter than honey on weekdays.
Just wanted to wake her up and ask what was going on, she saw Su Wei coming angrily, and motioned for her to be silent, she glanced at Su Wei with some concern and had to retreat in a hurry.
Su Lili, who was immersed in her own entanglement, felt the force from above and pulled her quilt, and her already somewhat irritable heart was even more irritable at the moment, and she said impatiently
"Liu Niang, don't disturb me, let me be alone for a while."
But the other party still didn't seem to be relenting, and in the end, Su Zhenli finally couldn't bear to get out of the quilt, and he couldn't help but get angry, but he sneered at Su Wei's face.
So the words that came to his lips were held back again.
"Dad, why are you here?" There was some fear in his expression.
"Hmph, if I don't come again, you're going to turn the sky upside down"
"Let you stay in the house, why don't you listen?"
"I think you just deserve it, and you found a crime in vain."
"I-" Su Lisa just wanted to refute but found that he was powerless to refute, so he could only be obediently trained.
"Tell me, why did you go out this time?"
Su Jisheng coaxed her out of the house suddenly appeared in her mind, and she gritted her teeth and was silent.
glared at her angrily, and Su Wei continued
"Don't guess, it's definitely your idea again, and you're playing around with Sheng'er."
"Tell me about you, when will you grow up, so that I can have an explanation for your dead mother."
"I ...... Not in the future," Su Jili said a little sullenly.
seemed to notice her abnormality, Su Wei didn't continue, but she couldn't pull her face to comfort her a few words, and the father and daughter were relatively speechless for a while.
It was Su Jili who took the lead in breaking this silence.
"Dad, what's going on with that old man in an official robe?"
"He's your political enemy, isn't he?"
Su Wei sighed and said with some annoyance
"It's true that he's my political enemy, but something...... It's confidential, Daddy can't tell you."
"Dad can only say that he is just eating the consequences"
"So what happened to him in the end? Will you come to us for trouble in the future?"
"Unless he has the ability to reach the sky."
"I have handed over his guilt to the emperor, and the emperor is merciful and did not give him the death penalty."
"But the capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, and it will eventually be the crime of exile."
"Oh, it's well deserved."
At least the bad guys got the punishment they deserved.
"From now on, you and Sheng'er will stay in this mansion well."
"I'll find you a gentleman to ask you to study, as for martial arts...... I'll have time to teach you personally."
"Oh."
"What? Unwilling"
"Nothing," she said lightly.
"Anyway, don't go out and run around if there's nothing to do, your father's political enemy is not just Chu Ruyan." There was some warning in the words.
"You should rest first, and everything will be healed later."
Saying that, Su Wei called Liu Niang back to serve her, and rushed to the study to deal with official business.
Looking at the back of her father's departure, Su Lili felt that it was not easy for him for the first time in her life, and then thought about it carefully, maybe ...... She's grown up a little bit too.
The second one to see her was Su Jisheng.
On this day, she was lying on the collapse basking in the sun, drinking porridge and chatting with Liu Niang, when suddenly a figure appeared in front of the door blocking her somewhat brilliant light, and when she looked at it, it was Su Jisheng.
Caught off guard, she was still in a trance.
"The young master is here," Liu Niang said to Su Lisa as if unintentionally.
Who would have thought that she played her cards so unreasonably today, and she didn't even look at him, so she turned her back to him, looking unwilling to deal with him.
"Young Master, Miss she may-" Liu Niang just wanted to find some reason to excuse her, but he stopped her.
"I see, you go down first"
"Let me talk to her alone"
Listening to the footsteps of Liu Niang gradually leaving, Su Jili tightened the quilt in his hand into his arms again.
Su Jisheng shook his head and chuckled, and gradually walked towards her.
Feeling that the quilt behind her was torn apart forcefully, Su Jili grabbed it tighter, she was in a somewhat complicated mood at the moment, and she really didn't think about how to face him.
"What? Just don't want to see me? ā
Su Zhensheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but his tone was still faint.
"Sister, are you blaming my brother?"
Carefully perceiving the various tones in his voice.
"How dare Iā"
She said a little angrily, but she felt a sour nose and forced her tears to retreat.
The quilt was torn off by him, and she turned around and threw herself straight into his arms with an unsteady center of gravity.
Feeling the good smell in his arms, Su Jili was stunned for a moment, and he didn't react for a long time.
"I'm going to throw myself into my arms, and I don't seem to be angry."
Hearing this, Su Li's old tears burst out of his eyes in an instant.
She felt that she was aggrieved.
Obviously deceived by him, but he still has to help him speak, obviously the wrong person is him, and he always looks like a nobody to make fun of her.
struggled to escape from his embrace, but she didn't expect the confinement in front of her to be tighter, no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free.
She simply gave up and wailed in his arms.
Looking at the thin shoulders trembling from crying in front of her, Su Jisheng gently patted her back comfortingly.
The crying in her arms had long since stopped, and her front was wet with her tears.
He let go of his embrace, and she looked up.
A small face was full of tears, full of grievances.
He wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Stop crying?"
Gentle like the soft clouds of heaven.
She sobbed and waited for him, speechless for a moment.
He just looked at her quietly, his eyes were tender like water.
In the end, she couldn't resist the attack, and opened her mouth intermittently
"You...... What did you do when you came back? Clear the suspicion? She said reluctantly.
"Hmm...... I confess that I have selfish motives in this regard," he said with a calm and composure as if he were discussing the weather with her.
His eyes were filled with anger when he stared at him, and Su Ji was about to leave.
But at the moment of staying, he forcibly dragged him back. Looking at the knobby hand in front of him holding his wrist stiffly, Su Jili didn't know whether to be angry or moved for a while.
The next second, he fell into the familiar embrace, and his eyes couldn't help but widen.
"But the most important thing is because of you," the gentle voice above her suddenly blew towards her, and she didn't know how to react for a moment.
"Do you have to believe that your brother is good?"
He had spoken to her in such a gentle tone, and he almost fell into his tenderness, but reason had made her hold that good word in her throat.
"That'...... Why did you help him lie to me? ā
He said as he pinched her soft face
"There are some things that I can't explain to you right now."
"You just have to remember that I will be a good brother from now on"
"The best brother in the world."
She finally fell into the gentle trap set for her in his eyes step by step, fell into his dusty temperament, and the corners of his mouth melted into pampering.
"Okay." Said with a smile.
and the bright sunshine outside the window, reaching out to hold him harder.
She will have the best brother in the whole world.
