The wind started again, and the lanterns under the corridor were swaying, casting blurry shadows on the windows. Su Rong saw that Su Yao's eyes were red from staying up late, so he reached out and touched her hair with some pity.
Mrs. Su San still hasn't repented. Not only is she cold and indifferent to Su Yao, but a few days ago, no one knew what she was thinking. She suddenly asked the old lady to help her find Su Xingxuan.
At that moment, even Su Rong felt angry, embarrassed and unwilling on behalf of Su Yao.
A dead person, in Mrs. Su San's heart, or perhaps precisely because he was dead, all the bad things about him had been completely forgotten by her, leaving only the memories and good things accumulated over the past ten years of their relationship.
Mrs. Su San might be reminiscing about Su Xingxuan, or perhaps she was missing the carefree life she lived when Su Xingxuan was still alive.
But no matter what the reason was, it was a great humiliation for Su Yao.
She has stumbled all the way to where she is today, and even has to make tremendous efforts to get the things she deserves. How could Mrs. Su San not have the slightest sympathy for her and be so cold-hearted
Su Yao didn't know that Su Rong had thought so far. She lowered her head, her eyelashes like a small fan covering the emotions in her eyes. After a long while, she let out a sigh: "If that's the case, then things are probably in our favor."
Su Rong thought the same. Hearing Su Yao say this, he reached out and pushed the teacup towards Su Yao's hand. "It's just that the atmosphere around the palace is unusual today, and I don't dare to stay too long to attract attention, so I don't know much about what happened later. But if it's according to our speculation, things are good for us. We just have to see how Song Heng responds."
Speaking of this, he was a little worried: "Song Heng... Can he do it?"
It is true that the former Crown Princess and her husband died as a result of the schemes of the Third and Second Princes, and it is also true that they died due to the frame-up of others, but Emperor Yuanfeng cannot shirk his responsibility.
It was his distrust and a series of blows that led to the prince being exiled to Dengzhou, where he was at the mercy of others.
The day Song Heng was born was also the day his parents died.
How did he get through all these years
Except for Song Che and Song Xiangyu who defended him, almost everyone else in the Song family wanted to take his life.
If it weren't for his good luck and ability, he wouldn't even have lived to this age.
Does he really have no resentment in his heart
Su Yao understood what Su Rong meant. She looked at the hazy shadows of the trees outside the window, sat quietly for a moment, and then said, "He can do it, not for himself, but for those who support him and put their future on his shoulders. He can do it too."
At daybreak, someone was sent over by Old Lady Su. She had been so worried that she couldn't sleep all night. She just wanted to get some news to feel at ease.
Su Rong and Su Yao went over together. Old Madam Su was surprised. She looked at Su Rong and then at Su Yao. Seeing that they both looked fine and didn't look like anything had happened, she carefully breathed a sigh of relief and asked Su Yao and Su Rong to sit down: "Have breakfast here, everyone. I know you haven't eaten yet."
After both of them agreed, Mrs. Su hesitantly called out "Yaoyao" and asked her worriedly, "Is everything all right?"
Her hair was already gray, and there was no smile on her wrinkled face. Su Yao looked at her worried eyes and suddenly felt a little sad, but he tried hard to hold it back and said lightly: "It should be nothing. Brother has been waiting for a long time. He only knows that Zheng Tao took people to the Prince Zhuang's Mansion. Since no one came to us, I think everything must be going well."
Mrs. Su's tense heartstrings relaxed, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened: "That's good, that's good."
Once people experience loss and then regain something, they will become more worried about losing it.
This is what happened to Old Lady Su. After waiting for so many years, Su Rong was finally able to stand up and get his title back. She couldn't stand any more setbacks.
If anything happened again, she would no longer have the energy to endure it.
"Yaoyao." Old Madam Su looked at Su Yao sincerely and said softly, "Thanks to you, you are back."
Fortunately you are back.
Su Yao had always been a redundant person in his previous life.
In fact, she worked very hard and tried very hard to live, but no matter how hard she tried and how much she gave, no one needed her and no one affirmed her value.
Even the children she raised with her own hands eventually abandoned her and returned to Cheng Dingan.
It seems that hard work is really useful, and she finally became someone who is needed by others.
She should have been happy, but Su Yao's tears fell without warning.
Su Rong noticed it immediately, and he said to Old Lady Su: "Grandma, I just came over and I seemed to hear a maid say that my sister was not feeling well..."
Old Madam Su's expression changed, and she said anxiously, "No wonder I said she hadn't come for so long. This girl is too stubborn. No matter how uncomfortable she is, she won't say a word. I'll go over and take a look. Otherwise, she will definitely hide it again."
Su Rong agreed. After Old Lady Su helped Mother Ji out of the door, Su Rong turned around and looked at Su Yao deeply, and then told Yu Xia: "Ask the kitchen to cook some porridge."
"Yaoyao." Su Rong called her, and when she looked up, his heart suddenly stagnated, and then his tone became very light: "Yaoyao, it's Uncle San and Aunt San who are sorry for you, and it's also us who are sorry for you. Don't think about what you will do. You don't have to do anything, because you are already very wronged."
He stretched out his hand, and seeing that Su Yao's eyes were getting redder, he sighed: "Yaoyao, don't be so cautious forever. Smile when you are happy, and don't pretend to be happy when you are unhappy. As long as I am here, I will protect you, unless I die."
She used to envy those who could vent their anger at will, because she didn't even have the qualifications to be angry. She didn't deserve to have emotions. If she wanted to survive, she had to do her best.
Even now, her situation has changed drastically, she is able to control her temper. She has almost never been angry with anyone. The words "cautious and cautious" have been engraved in her bones.
People can be reborn, but their hearts will still be the same scarred heart that was tempered by countless hardships before the rebirth.
Sometimes she felt that her life was very tiring, until now when she heard Su Rong's words, she finally covered her face with her hands and cried like a little animal.
Su Rong's eyes also turned red. He didn't ask anything, but just reached out to stroke her hair: "It will be fine, Yaoyao, it will definitely be fine from now on. No matter what, I will stand by your side."
