Chapter 13: He Is Not Worthy of You
Wang Su and Wang Ying went to change clothes, only Xiao Ling and Hui'er were left in the room, Xiao Ling sat there in a daze, and Hui'er began to clean up the mess left on the table.
By the time Hui'er had packed up, Wang Su had already changed his clothes, and appeared in front of Xiao Ling again, putting on a thick cloak.
Hui'er and Wang Ying seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two, so they packed up their things and retreated, leaving the space for the two of them.
Xiao Ling looked at Wang Su, who looked obviously a little depressed when he came out after changing his clothes, and suddenly felt a little inexplicable unbearable in his heart.
"Where are you going when Ling'er leaves here?" After Wang Su sat down, he no longer had the previous panic, and seemed to have been relieved and accepted the question that Xiao Ling was leaving.
Wang Su's question is also something Xiao Ling has been thinking about, she doesn't know where she should go, where she can go, the only thing she knows is that she doesn't want to stay here.
Xiao Ling shook his head honestly, and replied to Wang Su honestly: "I don't know for the time being, but I just don't want to stay here now!" ”
"Can you tell me why?" Wang Su didn't want to dig up Xiao Ling's pain, but it was really uneasy to let her leave him like this.
In fact, on the day he saw Xiao Ling, he was extremely shocked to see her fragile lying on the ground lifeless, and he almost couldn't believe that it was the extremely optimistic woman he had seen wearing men's clothes.
It's not that he doesn't want to know what happened to Xiao Ling in this month's time, but seeing that he has returned to his previous anger, he can't bear to break it, but when he heard that she was leaving, he had to ask.
Xiao Ling was stunned for a while, she didn't expect that Wang Su, who hadn't asked her questions for a few days, would ask at this time.
Wang Su looked at Xiao Ling with a sad face, and when he thought that Xiao Ling would not reveal anything to himself, Xiao Ling suddenly opened his mouth.
"Brother Wang, have you ever thought that one day you will take a concubine in addition to marrying a wife?" Xiao Ling asked suddenly.
Although Xiao Ling didn't know what Wang Su's family background was, judging from his conversation, clothing and diet, he was definitely not an ordinary family.
Regarding the reality that in this era, a rich man means that he will have three wives and four concubines, Xiao Ling has completely understood and experienced it.
After listening to Xiao Ling's question, Wang Su smiled bitterly, with a body like him, how could he have the life to enjoy the blessings of three wives and four concubines and all people!
Maybe it's because of his illness and birth, but he sees many people who can't see the warmth and coldness of people, and he sees it really!
Wang Su knew that Xiao Ling only knew that he was a rich son born in a big family, but he didn't know that he was just a concubine born to a concubine of a big family with no status at all!
Since childhood, I have been accustomed to seeing my mother, in order to have a place in that impersonal home, she is either flattering or carefully managing her own life. ET
even tried his best to please the children born to those so-called wives, but he completely ignored his own son, so that he had never enjoyed the warmth of maternal love over the years.
At the same time, because of his sick and weak body, his father felt that he had no value in use, so his father was no different from his mother to himself, and he could be said to be a dispensable existence in that family.
If it weren't for his grandfather's pity on him, he treated himself more since he was a child, and even took care of himself from time to time, otherwise he might have died a long time ago.
No one knew his disgust for marrying a wife and taking a concubine, before he knew Xiao Ling, he thought that his life would be spent lonely and desolate by such a person, but after that, he felt that it was good to have her company in his life.
But he also knew deeply that it was impossible for such an unbearable self to try to have her, it was just a ridiculous extravagant hope for himself!
"Ling'er, for a person like me who is almost buried in the loess, no matter who follows me, I am destined to have no happiness at all, so why should I harm others?" Wang Su seemed to laugh at himself easily.
Xiao Ling listened to Wang Su's words, and his heart "popped", and slowly kept sinking. She has never imagined or faced the death of a loved one.
Even his grandparents, who were in their late teens, were still physically strong, and never thought they would ever leave him.
But hearing Wang Su say this, Xiao Ling deeply felt fear, unprecedented fear! It seems that when he heard Wang Su's words, he deeply felt the approach of death, and even saw the death of someone close to him.
Xiao Ling shook his head vigorously, wanting to shake away the terrible picture, how could a living person die so easily? It's that I'm thinking too much, it's that I'm thinking too much......
Xiao Ling kept hypnotizing herself in her heart, she had experienced enough in the past few months, and she could no longer bear the blow of the death of the person she cared about.
"Don't talk nonsense, Brother Wang Ji has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely live a long life!" Modern science has confirmed that Xiao Lingming knew that her words would not be realized, but she still said it without hesitation, just as it was to comfort and comfort herself!
Wang Su smiled, smiling very purely, like an angel who fell into the mortal world by mistake and did not eat the fireworks of the world. Xiao Ling's extravagant guess, even if it was for this smile, the heavens would not bear to deprive him of his life like this!
"If it were me, it would be enough to have a favorite woman to accompany me in this life!" Probably thinking that the topic just now was too heavy, Wang Su suddenly changed the topic.
"Ahh Xiao Ling was still immersed in Wang Su's smile just now, and the words he suddenly threw out made her a little confused, and she subconsciously let out an "ah".
"Didn't you just ask me if you ever thought about marrying a wife and taking a concubine?" Wang Su looked at Xiao Ling's stunned appearance, and kindly reminded her of the question she had asked just now but was left behind by herself.
"Why?" It was impossible for Wang Su not to be shocked when he replied to Xiao Ling, and he didn't quite believe that this was something that an ancient person could say.
In her impression, shouldn't rich men in ancient times show their proud status with three wives and four concubines? Why is Wang Su the opposite?
"Ling'er, do you know, in fact, I am a concubine born to a concubine." Wang Su said with a sad face, "Although I also have the title of a master in that family, I can't get any warmth. I also saw through my mother's calculations and the intrigue in that big mansion, so I hid here. ”
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ......" Xiao Ling looked at Wang Su's sad face, and was very sorry to mention his sadness.
The concubine is similar to the nature of the modern illegitimate child! It's just that the concubines here can see the light! But so what, among the wealthy families, they are also outliers who have no status and are belittled.
"It doesn't matter," Wang Su shook his head weakly, "It is precisely because I have seen through those dirty deeds that I will resolutely not let myself, my wife, and even my children fall into such an environment." ”
Xiao Ling was a little touched that Wang Su could have such an idea, those who only care about their own enjoyment, how could they have thought about the idea of being a woman and a child, two socially recognized vulnerable groups!
They draw them into their own world for no reason, make them their vassals, and ignore them. Let them slowly lose their nature in a strange world, but they are still out of place, and even become the laughing stock of others after dinner and the victim of the struggle for power and money.
It's just that what Xiao Ling didn't know was that in order to avoid this, and because of his own physical reasons, Wang Su had already made up his mind that he would never marry a wife and have children in his life.
"Why did Ling Er suddenly ask this?" Although he had some conjectures in his heart, and knew that it might be a little cruel for Xiao Ling to ask this question like this, Wang Su still asked.
Xiao Ling was stunned for a second, and finally said, "I fell in love with someone, but she already has a concubine, and in terms of his family background, I am only worthy of being his concubine, which makes me very uncomfortable!" ”
Xiao Ling did not shy away from telling his experience, but hid the names of the people in it. But these have also proved that Xiao Ling has regarded Wang Su as her friend, so she is willing to share her grief with him.
Wang Su was stunned for a moment, and Xiao Ling continued, "But I refused, since he already has another woman, I won't be with him, even if I am his wife, let alone a concubine." ”
Xiao Ling bent his knees and buried his head between his knees, and said sullenly, "Brother Wang, do you know? In my house, there are only two people between husband and wife, and a man can only have one wife, and if I have a wife, it would be against the law to go to someone else, so I really can't accept sharing my husband with another woman. ”
Xiao Ling said with a little cry in his tone. When she first heard Xiao Ling say that she had a man she liked, Wang Su's heart hurt as if she had been pricked by a needle, but that pain couldn't withstand the distress when she saw Xiao Ling sad.
"Was it because of him that day that you fainted on the street?" Wang Suqiang held back his distress and slowly spoke.
"Hmm!" Xiao Ling nodded, "The day before that day, I found out that he had another woman, and even a child who was already seven or eight years old, so I had a big fight with him, and then ran out overnight. ”
Speaking of this, thinking of what Meng Tian said to her that day, Xiao Ling felt even more aggrieved, and the tears that she had endured for a few days finally flowed out again.
Wang Su looked distressed and scared, the situation was still vivid that day, he didn't dare to imagine what it would be like for Xiao Ling to go so cold if he went a little late that day, or if he didn't go that day!
Thinking of this, seeing the heartbroken Xiao Ling, Wang Su didn't care about any feudal etiquette, walked to Xiao Ling's side and took her in his arms, and comforted her softly, "He is not worthy of our Ling'er, Ling'er deserves a better and better man." ”
