Chapter Seventy-Eight: It's Him
When did it start to become like this?
Su Yan left the main hall indifferently, and looked back at the mother and daughter who were hugging in a group, in addition to ridicule and disdain, there was also a trace of pity that was difficult to capture.
"Mother, you're back!"
"Mother, why are you bleeding!"
"Mother...... Mother's ......"
When she was very young, her mother hid her in another courtyard and refused to let her go out even a single step.
There is no one to take care of them in the hospital, and only one mother's dowry girl has been taking care of them.
At that time, whether it was firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar or tea, the maid was asked to get it herself, and she had been growing up under the wings of those two people.
She still remembered that time when the maid had a high fever, and her mother exchanged her dowry for silver taels to buy medicine. Obviously, there are so many jewelry, and there should be a lot left after changing the money to buy medicine, but when I come back, there are only a few packets of opened medicinal herbs.
That day, she waited until her mother returned to the courtyard until it was dark. When my mother returned, there was still blood on her face that had not been wiped clean. Obviously so weak, but still smiled at her so gently.
Mother has a girl who is even younger than her, that is Xiaomi.
"Xiaomi, what does the outside world look like?"
Ignorant and ignorant, she is full of curiosity about the outside world that she has never spied on, and she always likes to grab Xiaomi and ask.
She didn't know anything about the mountains, the lakes, or even the houses except the courtyard.
But the happiest thing is that my mother has a pair of skillful hands, and she can always turn rotten wood into magic.
Even though she had never been exposed to the outside world, her mother did her best to make her understand.
In her memory, her mother was her god and all her beliefs.
The first time she saw the outside world, she couldn't suppress the impulse of her youth. She longs to see the world with her own eyes and listen to the sounds of the world with her ears, instead of thinking of the cage as the real world like a canary in captivity.
It was also the first time that she truly understood why her mother had kept her imprisoned in that small courtyard.
"It turns out that you are Su Yan, a wild seed born from that slut!"
The group of little girls in front of them were dressed in gorgeous clothes, and they were also wearing gold and silver, and they were very beautiful. The only ornament on her body is a wooden hairpin carved for her by her mother.
"Ziyue, you said she was the wild seed? The one born of adultery between the mother and the guard? The little girl next to her asked, her eyes full of disdain, and the rest was a bunch of little girl's coaxing.
At that time, she didn't understand what was called wild seed and what was adultery, but she vaguely knew that it was not a good word.
At that time, she didn't understand the hostility of other children towards her, but stupidly asked about the doubts in her heart.
Or maybe it's funny, the kids are playing her around, and she's still glad to see the outside world. is also naΓ―ve, and regards them as friends.
Until, the group of little girls pushed her into the water, who couldn't swim.
She saw Su Ziyue's disgusted look in the struggle, and the remaining words made her beautiful expectations for this world completely collapse, it turned out that the outside world was not as beautiful as her mother said.
"Who wants to be friends with a wild species like you, you are still my sister, are you worthy? I feel disgusted when I stay in the Su family for more than a second, and I am very happy that all filthy people like you are dead. β
She didn't go to school, everything about her was taught to her by her mother, reading and writing, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, embroidery and female red.
When she saw that the group of people were gone, when she felt that she could not live, she understood the reason why her mother did not want her to take half a step out of the courtyard after beating her to death.
Mother has always been a gentle person, but only in this freshly thawed pool did I understand how warm my mother's arms were.
"Hey, hey, little girl, wake up."
She seems to have had a long dream, dreaming of her mother, dreaming of millet, dreaming of the outside world, and dreaming of her own ending.
But when she opened her eyes, she saw that the earth was not the gloomy underworld in her mother's story, but a bright but dirty world.
It seems that someone is holding her, a small embrace, but it is very warm.
"Won't you shout when you fall into the water? I don't know how to shout for help? β
The voice is very childish, and it sounds like a boy.
She struggled to open her eyes before she could see the person holding her.
His face was white, but it was that kind of miserable white, he should have been frozen, but he was very good-looking.
The eyelashes are long, and the eyes are dark and translucent.
She tried to break free, but found that she couldn't move because of the cold.
The boy's clothes were also soaked to save her, but the arms were warm, just like a mother.
"Mother's ......" was confused, but shouted this sentence.
The boy's body trembled, it must have been blown by the wind.
He must have been very cold, but he gave her his coat.
"What mother, I'm a man, I won't save a fool, right? I'm so sorry for that. β
The boy shivered coldly, snorting incessantly, but still forced to talk to her.
But she was still so cold, so cold that she wanted to sleep.
She wanted to go back to the other hospital, she wanted to go home.
"Little girl, don't sleep, you talk to me." The boy looked at her weak appearance and tightened his grip again.
"They said that if you fell asleep like this, you would die, just talk to me, and you won't want to sleep if you talk to me. I'm ...... Ahh......h Very good at chatting. β
She sneezed when she heard the little boy talking, and she couldn't help but let out a low laugh.
"If you laugh, it's good to laugh, and if you laugh, it means you're still alive." There was a hint of excitement in the little boy's voice.
She forced her sleepiness and let out a soft "um", still alive.
After that, the boy said a lot of things, and the answer he got was obviously only a simple word, but he couldn't suppress his joy.
"Little girl, do you know, I really want you to be my wife. By the way, you shouldn't know what a wife is, my father told me that my wife is a wife, and she is the one who wants to treat her for the rest of her life.
It has always been others who protect me, you are the first person I protect, what should you do if you are bullied in the future by someone such a little fool? I really want to be there for you all the time to protect you.
Little fool, if you can live, will you be my wife? I will protect you in the future, and those people will not dare to bully you anymore with me. β
The little boy said to himself, but he was about to faint, but he didn't notice that the little girl opened her eyes and saw the token on his waist.
It turns out that it is the prince?
Perhaps she had a cold and fever, and she heard the last words before fainting completely.
"I know who you are, I will definitely come to you, you must wait for me."
She answered in a low voice, maybe he didn't hear it, but she remembered it.
The appearance of that token, by that day, both of them should recognize each other.
Even if she doesn't keep her promise in the end, she will definitely say thank you to him, right?
