"Ms. Lin, your bitter tea is very good, first bitter and then sweet, only people who have really experienced life can appreciate the taste. ”

Ye Wudao didn't know why he suddenly talked about Kuding tea, which made Lin Shutong a little stunned, only to see that after Ye Wudao took a sip of Kuding tea, he put the cup on the table, closed his eyes and experienced the taste of sweetness, and then opened his mouth to continue.

"Life is actually the same as this bitter tea, first bitter can then be sweet, if you have a lifetime of suffering, in the end, you will only suffer yourself, why bother! Ms. Lin Shutong, I think in your lifetime, you don't want to leave this world with bitterness all the time, right?"

Lin Shutong's hands trembled again, obviously Ye Wudao's words hit her heart, this matter has been buried in her heart for decades, as long as she closes her eyes, Zhou Xiaoqin's scratched face will appear, so that she is awakened and unable to sleep, and sits all night until dawn.

"Ms. Lin Shutong, it's time to let go, not only for Zhou Xiaoqin's redemption, but also for you. Ye Wudao looked into her eyes and said word by word.

After a while, I saw Lin Shutong crying, and the more she cried, the louder she became, as if she wanted to vent all the pain that had been buried in her heart for decades through tears.

Yan Ruyue glanced at Ye Wudao with admiration, and didn't understand why Ye Wudao could see so many things, but she couldn't see anything, and then connected to the paintings drawn by Ye Wudao, as well as the words he wrote, which made her, a talented woman in Jiangnan, suddenly have a deep sense of frustration in her heart.

Yan Ruyue is a girl after all, and her mind is delicate, under her comfort, Lin Shutong gradually stopped crying, and said with tears in her eyes.

"You're right, it's time for me to let go, this thing has suppressed me for decades, not a single day has been a good night's sleep, I'm on the verge of collapse. Lin Shutong wiped away her tears and said.

"Back then, Zhou Xiaoqin and I were both Hua Dan in the opera troupe, I was the daughter of the moderator, she was a famous Peking Opera singer, Zhou Xiaoqin's talent in Peking Opera was better than me, and she was also more beautiful than me, and my relationship with her was like a sister, until a man appeared ......"

"That man's name is Zhang Dongze, his father was very wealthy at the time, and Zhang Dongze is his youngest son, Zhang Dongze returned from abroad, he has a Western atmosphere in his body, and loves Peking Opera, and often comes to our Lanmei troupe to cheer, just like that, Zhou Xiaoqin and I both know him. ”

"Zhang Dongze is generous, and he is very willing to spend money for women, not long after, Zhou Xiaoqin and I fell in love with him at the same time, which is also the beginning of this tragedy......"

The next plot is a bloody drama, nothing more than two women, who fell in love with a man who returned from studying abroad at the same time, but this flowery man fell in love with both of them at the same time.

But she didn't blame the flowery man, but resented Zhou Xiaoqin for snatching the man from her, she was not as beautiful as Zhou Xiaoqin, and she didn't sing as well as Zhou Xiaoqin, and under jealousy, she secretly found someone to scratch Zhou Xiaoqin's face.

But unexpectedly, Zhang Dongze went to find Zhou Xiaoqin at that time, found out about this matter, and hurriedly went to save Zhou Xiaoqin, and Lin Shutong found those people. It is estimated that Zhang Dongze was worried that Zhang Dongze would find out their identities and would be wanted when the time came, so he was ruthless, put a fire in the troupe and fled.

However, it was this fire that not only burned down the Lanmei Opera Troupe, but also burned Zhou Xiaoqin to death, and Zhang Dongze may have been lucky to be rescued in time and picked up a small life.

It may be that Zhang Dongze's father was worried that his son was caught up in this matter, and spent money to dredge up some relationships, and the incident of the Lanmei opera troupe being burned down was covered up in this way, and Lin Shutong has never seen Zhang Dongze since then.

The fire that year burned not only Zhou Xiaoqin, but also the owner of the Lanmei Opera Troupe, that is, Lin Shutong's father.

Although Lin Shutong was not the executioner of this fire, those people were invited by her, which is equivalent to her killing her father and more than a dozen people in the troupe, as well as Zhou Xiaoqin, but she didn't get anything, and she didn't get Zhang Dongze, all she got was decades of regret and guilt, as well as sleepless nights and a life like the walking dead.

When Lin Shutong told the things of the year, the whole person was already in a state of collapse, the things of that year, she didn't even dare to think about it for so many years, but she was pestering her every day, it can be said that although her person is still alive, but her heart has already died, she did not choose to commit suicide, just to help her heart atone for her sins, to put it bluntly, this is a kind of torture for herself.

After Ye Wudao and Yan Ruyue heard this story, they both sighed in unison, it is hard to blame anyone for this matter, is it to blame Lin Shutong? Or to blame the flowery son? Or to blame the gang of arsonists, it can only be said that this is a tragedy of the times.

Ye Wudao is not a policeman, nor a defender, he doesn't want to judge who is right and who is wrong, now that so long has passed, Lin Shutong was scratched on the face, and then burned to death, she is really pitiful, and it is understandable that she will be resentful after her death.

And Lin Shutong also got retribution, her father was burned to death, and she was also tortured by this incident for decades, and life is worse than death every day.

"Ms. Lin Shutong, no matter what, the matter has passed, you have tortured yourself for decades, and now you can let go, which can be regarded as a relief, can you take me to find the place where Zhou Xiaoqin was burned to death, maybe I can find her bones, let her be buried in the ground, so as to calm her grievances as soon as possible, so that she can be reincarnated as soon as possible, which can be regarded as a kind of redemption for her." Ye Wudao said to her.

Lin Shutong nodded, and said to Ye Wudao: "Thank you, after this matter is said, I feel much more comfortable in my heart, there have been a lot of changes in that place back then, I may not be able to recognize it, I can only take you to find it as much as possible." ”

Not long after, they took Lin Shutong into the car and went to the place where the Lanmei opera troupe was located, which was called Fengqingpi back then, and it was not very far from Beijing, but over the years, Fengqingpi has undergone earth-shaking changes.
