Aunt Li suddenly fell silent. She didn't know whether she was remembering the past or Su Li's cold reminder a few days ago.
"Nanny, now I just want to stay quietly in Jinyuan. It's best not to be bullied. If I am bullied, I also want to have the strength to fight back. Unlike before, I couldn't control life and death. I don't want to feel that way again. Experience it a second time.”
At this point, Su Li showed a bitter smile, "Mother... you are so cruel! I thought that as long as I didn't resist, I would be fine even if my life was a bit harder and I would not die. So I kept silent and didn't resist. But, I was still too naive.”
Grandma Li was very moved. It turned out that the second young lady was not stupid, but she was too stupid. She was so stupid that she became afraid of the young lady because of her cold voice.
But if you think about it carefully, the second young lady has to think about how to survive every day at such a young age. If she didn't have some cleverness, how could she survive until now
Moreover, the second young lady had repeatedly rescued her from the eldest lady before. Where could she find such a kind lady? !
For a moment, the surge of guilt almost overwhelmed her.
"Second Miss..." Nanny Li held Su Li's little hand tightly, "No matter what you say or do in the future, Nanny will support you unconditionally!"
Su Li's eyes rolled, and she put her other hand on Grandma Li's hand with a smile as bright as spring.
It's not easy to finally have the first loyal chess piece.
Grandma Li's tears flashed. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the deceased old lady. If she could use her wisdom to escape, she might not have to die so tragically...
The next day, the sun was shining brightly.
Su Zhai returned to calm, Qi Xianqing taught Su Li how to study as usual, and put aside the practice of Xuan Gong for the time being. This made Qi Xianqing very angry. Erya was about to break through to the second level, but Zhu Yan made trouble and postponed the matter.
"Second sister, you look much better today!"
After the class ended, Su Qinghao jumped down from his seat, came to Su Li's side, and touched Su Li's forehead pretending to be like a little adult.
The corner of Su Li's mouth was slightly raised, and she also smiled. She was about to touch Su Qinghao's head with her hand, but Su Qinghao was pulled away by a hand.
Su Li looked up, her smile faded slightly, she showed a respectful expression, and saluted, "Hello, second mother."
"you're good too."
Li Yuelian looked at Su Li with a complicated expression, always feeling inexplicable fear in her heart, "Qing Hao still has martial arts classes, so I won't stay any longer."
Su Li nodded obediently, waved her hands and said, "See you later, then."
Li Yuelian's expression softened slightly, and she pulled Su Qinghao away. Such a well-behaved and sensible Su Erya, was it really a coincidence before? She was just too suspicious and overthinking.
After seven days of such a quiet time, Zhu Yan and Su Zipei finally returned to the Su residence that night. Looking at the brightly lit Jinyuan, Zhu Yan gritted her teeth with hatred.
"What a great mother-in-law Zheng, she just ran away without any care. Damn girl, I will keep you alive for a while longer. Jinyuan belongs to my son, no one can take it away!"
Su Huanli was shocked when he received the news that Zhu Yan was back so soon. He thought that his wife would stay at her parents' house for more than half a month.
Zhu Yan also had no choice but to throw away water because she was already a married girl from the Zhu family. Moreover, recently she not only often asked her parents' family for money, but also went back to Zhu's house to eat and drink for free, which caused a lot of gossip. Su Zipei couldn't stand it anymore and kept crying. In the end, she had no choice but to shamelessly go back to Su's house first.
"Madam, I'm afraid Mr. Qi is still angry. Don't go to the school to make yourself uncomfortable. Don't go to Jinyuan either. After the last incident, the old man often went to Jinyuan to review Erya's injuries."
Su Huanli hurriedly came over and warned, Zhu Yan was so angry that she stared at her and said angrily: "Master, you actually restrict my actions for an outsider? What's the truth? Could it be that the love between our husband and wife for many years is no better than that of a poor scholar? "
Su Huanli sighed deeply when he heard this and comforted:
"Madam, I am also thinking about the overall situation. Although Doctor Qi has no money and power, none of his students are easy to mess with. They are all officials in the government. Moreover, his prestige in his college is extremely high. If he is not appeased, With him, the future of our Su family is over, madam, you must hold back!"
Although she knew that the master would use the overall situation to suppress her, Zhu Yan was still so angry that she couldn't eat or sleep. She has lost so much weight in just half a month. How could she, Zhu Yan, have ever felt so depressed? It is so unreasonable!
"When I pass Zipei to a wealthy family, I will personally recover this debt!" Before the big thing was accomplished, Zhu Yan looked at Su Zipei's beautiful, pink and energetic face and quickly cheered up.
A few days later, in the early morning in the school—
"The writings here are all nonsense. Even your brother Su Qinghao's writing is better than yours. It's really embarrassing to me! Su Zipei, you are not worthy of being my student. You don't need to come tomorrow."
Qi Xianqing grabbed the paper and sprinkled it in Su Zipei's face. Su Zipei was so aggrieved that she burst into tears. She looked at the paper on the ground angrily and wanted to argue a few words, but the fact was just as Qi Xianqing said, her handwriting was crooked. The ugliest.
Although Su Qinghao's handwriting is not pretty, it is straight and neat. And Su Erya's handwriting... is simply too beautiful to behold! Every stroke and every painting is elegant, smart and natural!
Put together with Su Erya's calligraphy, Su Zipei's calligraphy is really a ghost painting, as ugly as dog shit!
"This is talent! Qinghao, your second sister's talent in calligraphy is the best I have ever seen. Maybe she will become a great calligrapher in the future, a school of her own. You have to study hard."
Qi Xianqing reminded him with a smile. Su Qinghao looked at the second sister's words with stars in his eyes, admiring him in his heart. It's a pity that the woman doesn't learn martial arts. He really wants to compete with the second sister.
"Sir, you are joking. I am not very talented and have little knowledge. I need to learn more."
"Second sister, you are too modest. I think you are as powerful as my eldest brother..."
"Haha, Qinghao, you kid..."
The three of them chatted happily, but Su Zipei was left alone, as if she were transparent, and her eyes turned red again.
"It's different from what was promised. Mom clearly said that I am the best. Why is my second sister better than me? Why doesn't my fourth brother admire me? It's different from what was promised..."
"You are all bad people. I will ignore you. I want to go find my mother!"
Su Zipei left in tears, leaving Su Qinghao and Su Erya with stunned faces.
Qi Xianqing stroked his white beard with a smile on his face. Su Zipei followed her mother and wanted to kill her sister at a young age. This was obviously rotten to the core. How could he teach such a vicious girl to read? Simply force him away.
"Mother... mother!"
Su Zipei cried and rushed in from the door. When she saw Zhu Yan, she felt even more aggrieved and threw herself into her mother's arms.
"What's wrong? Mom taught you to stay calm in times of trouble. What's the use of just crying? Cheer up!"
Zhu Yan scolded her with a straight face, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Not only had everything been going wrong recently, it was simply God who was specifically against her. Nothing I wanted to accomplish was accomplished, but all kinds of troubles came my way.
"Mom, my husband said my handwriting is too ugly. He doesn't want to teach me and won't allow me to go to school."
boom!
Zhu Yan slapped her hand on the coffee table, causing the tea cup to make a crisp sound.
"Qi Xianqing, you are going too far!"
Even though I have already given in, you still go the extra mile. Do you really think that I, Zhu Yan, am easy to mess with? !
Zhu Yan felt angry, got up and walked out. When she reached the door, she remembered Su Huanli's instructions and how unwelcome she was in the Zhu family during this period, and her pace slowed down unconsciously.
"Mom, aren't you going to help me seek justice?"
Seeing her mother stop halfway, Su Zipei followed behind and said aggrievedly.
Zhu Yan sighed deeply, her worries... were really too many. She knelt down and caressed Su Zipei's face, and said warmly: "Zipei, mother also has some difficulties. Tomorrow I will help you find a teacher to teach you alone. After enduring this period of time, I will send you to the best school, okay? good?"
"No, not good at all!"
Su Zipei's quiet expression suddenly turned ferocious, and she said bitterly: "The other gentlemen are so far behind Mr. Qi, how can I surpass the second sister? Mom, you are also partial, I don't like mom anymore!"
Zhu Yan was shocked and angry, and subconsciously slapped her away.
Snapped!
Su Zipei's face swelled up quickly. She covered her right cheek blankly, tears quickly accumulated in her eyes, and she shouted miserably: "Mom, hit me!!"
Zhu Yan felt extremely regretful and stepped forward to comfort her, but was slapped away by Su Zipei, whose face was full of hatred.
"You're hypocritical, don't come here! You've long wanted to be doted on by a daughter, right? You go find Su Erya, I'll get out of here!"
Su Zipei sneered several times and left angrily, leaving Zhu Yan hiding her face and sighing, heartbroken.
"Mom planned so hard to get into this situation, but it was all because of you..."
…
Unknowingly, the season has entered early summer.
In the corridor of Jinyuan, Su Li was half-lying on a wicker chair, feeling the draft blowing against her face very comfortably. Ever since Qi Xianqing drove Su Zipei away last time, she and Su Qinghao were the only two people left in the school, so there was a lot less fun.
The injury on his back had healed half a month ago. Qi Xianqing's medical methods did not leave any scars, but the scars accumulated in the past were still there. If they were to be removed, the wound would have to be cut again, Su Li thought to herself. So much time wasted.
"Miss, the money I received from the accounting office this month was much less."
Aunt Li walked in from outside the hospital with a sad look on her face, "Last month I received a full two hundred taels, but this month I only received thirty taels. I went to ask the old housekeeper, but he said that he gave Jinyuan 300 taels. I doubt it. …”
"Mommy, don't make random guesses. If someone listens to you, trouble will come again."
Su Li stood up and shook Grandma Li's hand, comforting her and saying, "I still have a lot of savings, so I can last for a long time."
Aunt Li sighed slightly, blaming herself for being useless. In the end, it was the young lady who comforted her.
Speaking of which, the second young lady has never done anything bad since she was a child. Why is the eldest lady always going to death to target the young lady? What kind of hatred can't be resolved between the biological mother and her daughter
