Chapter 232: Suspicion that he is his own
I, really, am not biological? Although Su Jiu'er's words were a question, the tone was affirmative.
Gu Feng looked at Su Jiu'er's appearance, and then realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained, "Don't think about it, you are their daughter." ”
When Gu Feng was nervous, he stammered a little.
Su Jiu'er has been with Gu Feng for so long, so he naturally knows what Gu Feng is like, and his heart is cold all of a sudden, so he might as well not say it.
Originally, Su Jiu'er was very tired, but she was not tired at all at the moment, and her mind was full of thinking that she was not born to Su's father Zhao.
Su Jiu'er took a deep breath, tried to calm her breath, and spoke softly, "If I, if I am not born to my father, then whose child am I?" ”
Su Jiu'er said, raising her eyes to look up at Gu Feng, with tears in her eyes, and her voice trembled, "Xianggong, did you know it early on?" ”
"Don't think about it so much, it's not too early, rest early." Gu Feng hugged Su Jiu'er's waist in a panic and coaxed, "You are the child of your father-in-law and mother-in-law, don't think about it." ”
Delusion?
Is she thinking?
"Xianggong, if you know anything, just tell me directly." Su Jiu'er's eyes were red, she looked at Gu Feng aggrievedly, her voice trembled, "I just can't accept it for a while, I'm not biological, my father and mother are so good to me." ”
"It doesn't matter if it's biological or not," Gu Feng carefully helped Su Jiu'er wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said softly, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law are very good to you, it's true." ”
Su Jiu'er originally had a lot of thoughts in her heart, and Gu Feng's words confirmed the fact that she was not born to Su's father Zhao.
Su Jiu'er stretched out her hand to push Gu Feng away, her heart was in a mess, and she said strangely, "How can I not be biological?" ”
Su Jiu'er is gentle and understanding on weekdays, but sometimes it is not easy to come out when he gets into the tip of the horns.
Gu Feng saw Su Jiu'er who was out of control for the first time, reached out to hold Su Jiu'er's hand, pulled her to lie down, and coaxed softly, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”
Su Jiu'er breathed rapidly, she only knew that she was uncomfortable, but she didn't know how to relieve it, and the whole person was on the verge of collapse.
Su Jiu'er nestled numbly in Gu Feng's arms, her expression stiff.
Su Jiu'er didn't fall asleep this night, and Gu Feng couldn't sleep either.
When she got up in the morning, Su Jiu'er sat on the bed decadently, looking dazed.
"Get dressed." Gu Feng sat next to Su Jiu'er, helped Su Jiu'er put on his thick clothes, and said worriedly, "It's weirdly cold this day, don't freeze." ”
"I don't want to get out of bed." Su Jiu'er sat on the head of the bed, she couldn't accept the fact that she was not born to Su's father Zhao.
"Maybe not what you think." Gu Feng comforted softly, "Think about it, even if you are not their biological daughter, you were raised by them, and you know in your heart how good they have been to you over the years." ”
"Xianggong," Su Jiu'er raised her eyes to look at Gu Feng with a complicated expression, "It's just because I care too much about my father and mother, so I can't accept that thing." ”
Gu Feng leaned in front of Su Jiu'er's forehead and gently dropped a kiss, she naturally knew that Su Jiu'er cared too much about Su's father Zhao's family, so she was so painful.
"Don't ask them about this matter, it will save them sadness." Gu Feng touched Su Jiu'er's little face and comforted.
Gu Feng couldn't stay by Su Jiu'er's side all the time, waiting for her to finish eating before he went to get down to business.
Su Jiu'er looked sad, and she was not in the mood to see the Zhao family, so she sat alone in the hall and embroidered.
Koharu brought a bowl of tonic soup, put it on the table, and said with a smile, "Madam, let's drink some soup." ”
"Drink it later, leave it there." Su Jiu'er opened her mouth lightly, raised her eyes to look at Xiaochun, and asked hesitantly, "What about your father?" ”
Xiaochun didn't react at first, but when she came back to her senses, she realized what Su Jiu'er meant, and hurriedly replied respectfully, "The slave maid is an orphan, and she doesn't know who her parents are since she was born. ”
Su Jiu'er's pale lips moved, "Then how did you grow up?" ”
"The slave used to grow up in the courtyard of the human tooth, and my mother took care of me," Koharu said obediently, "Mother has taken in a lot of abandoned babies like us." ”
"You mean human teeth?" Su Jiu'er heard that title for the first time and felt very novel.
"Yes." Xiaochun responded with a smile, and the corners of her lips hooked up a brilliant arc, "The slave maid heard that her mother used to be married, and then the man took away her money and ran away, so her mother took in those abandoned babies, and then life forced her to do the business of selling people." ”
"You don't blame her?" Su Jiu'er felt very strange when she heard Xiaochun say this.
"Why complain about my mother, it's not easy for her to raise us, even if she doesn't sell us, we don't have a good place to go, and it's impossible to find a good family to marry like an ordinary girl." Koharu said sincerely, with a faint smile on his face, "What's more, my mother has taken in so many abandoned babies, if she doesn't sell us, she won't be able to support those young children." ”
Su Jiu'er was stunned at this time, and didn't know what to say.
"My mother raised us since we were children, and we have to spend a lot of silver every year, and when I was a child, the slave and maid were weak, and my mother took the slave and maid to the doctor in the middle of the night." Xiaochun talked about the past, with a little bitterness in her heart, "Mom now has more than 30 children under the age of three in her hands. ”
"It's all not wanted by others?" Su Jiu'er has always felt that children are a treasure given by God to parents, why do so many people not want children?
"Yes, some children are born with disabilities." Xiaochun's eyes were red, but he pretended to smile, "When they grow up, no one wants them, so my mother will let them help in the yard, and wait until fifteen or sixteen to give them some silver and send them out, so that they can live on their own." ”
From this point of view, the mother that Koharu said is a kind-hearted person.
"It's not easy." Su Jiu'er sincerely sighed, if a mother just wants to sell the population, then there is no need to raise those disabled children.
"Yes, the slave gives her mother some money every month, and she can't support those children alone." Xiaochun said with emotion, "Last year's drought, fortunately, my mother had the foresight to buy a lot of food early, otherwise the children in the yard might not be able to survive." ”
"How many children are there in the yard now?" Su Jiu'er asked curiously.
"Almost three hundred." Koharu said vaguely.
"Then the former government didn't care about those children?" Su Jiu'er has long since forgotten that Su's father Zhao is not her biological parents, and her mind is full of thinking about the mother in Xiaochun's mouth.
"Madam, you drink the soup first, and the slave will tell you slowly." Xiao Chun was afraid that the soup would be cold, but this was specially ordered by the master.
Su Jiu'er put away the embroidery work in her hand and put it aside, then sat down and started drinking the soup, "You sit down and say, it's weird to stand up." ”
Xiaochun smiled, sat on the chair next to her, and said, "Mom can't make much money in the first place, and she can only make money by selling people in the past, but it is really too difficult to raise so many children with that money, so my mother wants to hand over some of the children to the government office, and when the government government comes forward to take care of them, my mother will be relieved." ”
is a kind-hearted person, Su Jiu'er took a sip of soup and thought silently.
"It's a pity that the previous county lords said that the imperial court had no money to buy grain and grass to support soldiers, let alone these disabled children." Xiaochun drooped her eyelids, with a little sadness in her heart, "Mom has no choice but to help people wash clothes to feed us, and later some beautiful sisters reached age and took the initiative to ask to go to Qinglou." ”
Green Building?
Su Jiu'er drank the soup for a while.
"Those sisters went to the Qinglou and would send a lot of silver to their mother every month, so my mother didn't help people wash their clothes and concentrated on taking care of the children in the yard." Xiaochun lowered her head, as if she was a little aggrieved, "The slave maid once thought that she could help her mother share some of the burden when she entered the building, but the lady who was in charge of the government at that time took a fancy to the slave maid, and the slave maid stayed here." ”
Su Jiu'er felt that what Xiaochun said made her suddenly understand that it was just that every businessman was profitable.
"You, Mom, are amazing." Su Jiu'er was amazed.
"The slave thinks that although the mother is not the slave's father, she is better than the slave's father." Xiao Chun smiled shyly, "The slave maid thinks that everyone in the courtyard thinks so and is willing to do anything for her mother." ”
"She deserves to be treated like this." Su Jiu'er suddenly felt a little envious, she suddenly remembered one thing, she could build a yard by herself, feed those children who couldn't support herself, and when they grew up, she would drive them out and let them live on their own, which was also a good thing.
But this thought only flashed in Su Jiu'er's mind, and she still had to think about how to deal with Zhou Zifu now.
"If your mother is in trouble, you can let her come to me." Su Jiu'er raised her eyes to look at Xiaochun and said.
Although Su Jiu'er didn't have time to manage those trivial things, Xiaochun's mother could do it, and the only thing she could do was to give some silver.
When Xiaochun heard Su Jiu'er say this, she hurriedly stood up, knelt in front of Su Jiu'er in a daze, and said gratefully, "Madam, the slave and maid thanked you on behalf of the mother." ”
"What is there to thank, I just think that I can help a little, which is far worse than your mother." Su Jiu'er smiled and looked into the distance.
Sometimes, as long as you want to open it, your mood will improve.
Su Jiu'er thought clearly, drank the soup in one gulp, got up and walked outside, she wanted to know what Su's father and the Zhao family were doing, and she also wanted to tell them that she would always be their good daughter.
As soon as he walked to Zhao's courtyard, Su Jiu'er saw Zhao standing in the courtyard and talking and laughing with An Zeqing.
Su Jiu'er's face darkened completely, and her hands involuntarily clenched into fists.
If she didn't know that An Zeqing was the child of An Mu Wang's family, she would suspect that An Zeqing was born to the Zhao family.
