Li Ya learned from Cai Jiao Tou Tou that Aunt Li did not die due to illness, but took her own life. After being surprised, Li Ya couldn't stop her tears from rolling down.
"Manager Li, don't be too sad. People can't be resurrected after death. Don't blame Tang for shaving his head. He really had no choice but to do it himself."
"Master Caijiao, how can I blame Grandpa Tang? He was also good for my mother. But why did my mother die? If she didn't think about herself, she should also think about us sisters?"
"Manager Li, if you want to ask why, it's exactly what Tang Shatou said. Your mother is a great mother and a great woman!"
"Why?"
"Because she left to maintain her purity and for your sisters to grow up healthily."
"ah?"
"Manager Li, this is what Tang Shatou said."
"What does Grandpa Tang mean by saying this?"
"Isn't it easy to understand what my grandfather said?"
"Master Jiujin?"
"Master Jiujin, are you here?"
When Caitou Toutou and Li Ya saw Tang Qing walking into the old courtyard, they stood up and went to greet him.
"I never left at all."
Tang Qing pulled a stool and sat down.
"Master Jiujin, did you hear everything?"
The head, feet and head looked a little nervous.
"You heard that? What's wrong? Are you afraid that I'll scold you for talking behind your back? Don't worry, I won't scold you. I just want to eat the fried rice cakes you cooked."
Tang Qing said to Cai Tootou with a smile.
"I'll go fry it right away."
Caitou Toutou went over to cook fried rice cakes.
"Master Jiujin, why did you leave just now?"
Li Ya asked Tang Qing.
"If I don't leave, can Master Caijiao be free to tell you these things? Can you be free to ask these questions?"
"Well, this is true too."
"You were so greedy for me when you were eating fried rice cake just now. I really wanted to come in and eat it, but in order to let you talk for a while, I had to grieve my stomach."
"Master Jiujin, I've given you a hard time, thank you."
"I should thank you, thank you for understanding my grandpa. Oh, by the way, you just asked my grandpa why he said that Aunt Li went to maintain her purity and for your sisters to grow up healthily. Are you really
Don’t you understand?”
"I can vaguely feel it, but I can't fully understand it."
"Liya, you are a fan of the authorities. This is actually very simple. Aunt Li is worried that she will be bullied by Master Li in the future, so she simply leaves first. Also, if she goes, your grandparents will no longer worry about Li Li, your father
I can also raise you with peace of mind."
"My mother is worried about being bullied by Mr. Li. I understand this. But why won't my grandparents worry about my sister after my mother passes away? Will my father raise me with peace of mind?"
"Liya, if your mother were here, your grandparents would not only be worried that your mother and your father would be disconnected and their old relationship would rekindle and they would continue to communicate. They would also be worried that your mother would tell your sister the truth and seek revenge on them in the future."
"They themselves are evil, and they also think others are evil."
"They don't think they are evil. They are doing it for the good of your father and the Li family."
"Master Jiujin, how can my father be able to raise me with peace of mind after my mother passes away?"
"Liya, if your mother is still here, your father's thoughts must still be with her, and he will still try his best to be with your mother, so he has the heart to take care of you?"
"Yes, well, why can't I understand such a simple truth?"
"Liya, I told you that you are a fan of the authorities."
"Master Jiujin, the fried rice cake is ready. Eat it while it's hot."
A large bowl of steaming fried rice cakes was served to Caitou Tou.
"Thank you. I want you to cook fried rice cakes for me in the middle of the night."
Tang Qing picked up the chopsticks and ate hungrily.
"Master Jiujin, I'm happy tonight. The words I've been holding in my heart for so many years are finally spoken out."
Cai Tootou pulled up a stool and sat next to Tang Qing.
"I'm also very happy. Many of the mysteries in my heart have finally been solved. Li Ya, do you want to eat more?"
Tang Qing saw Li Ya's beautiful almond eyes staring at her without blinking, thinking that she also wanted to eat fried rice cakes.
"Master Jiujin, I just ate it. If you eat too much at night, you will gain weight. However, it tastes better when I watch you eat it than when I eat it myself."
Li Ya's almond-shaped eyes were still staring at Tang Qing unblinkingly.
"Liya, please tell me straight, my eating appearance is too ugly, almost like a pig's eating!"
"Master Jiujin, I didn't mean that. It's just that you taste it so delicious."
"Hey, being hungry doesn't mean it makes me pregnant. Anyway, I'm so fat that I don't look like a woman."
"Master Jiujin, you are beautiful!"
"Haha, Liya, what you said is too false, isn't it? Look, Master Caijiao is laughing too."
"Master Jiujin, I'm not laughing at you. I'm not laughing at you. I'm happy because the mysteries in your heart have been solved."
"Master Jiujin, which of the mysteries in your mind have been solved?"
"Liya, let me finish the fried rice cake before we talk. Master Caijiao, please tell Liya first."
"Manager Li, I don't know exactly how many mysteries Master Jiujin has in mind, but I know that she at least knows what his grandfather said to me before he left."
"Yeah, yeah, I've always wondered why my grandpa invited the caiji master in advance and said so many things."
Tang Qing finished eating the fried rice cake and wiped his mouth.
"Master Jiujin, there should be some mystery about my parents, right?"
"Liya, the most important mystery is why your mother didn't mention a word about Mr. Li in her suicide note to you."
"It turns out that my mother didn't dare to mention it or didn't want to."
"There's no need to mention it."
"No one is perfect. Mr. Li is known as the great scholar in Yancheng. I didn't expect him to be so confused in this regard."
"Master Caijiao, didn't you tell Li Ya? It's easiest for a person to lose himself in the face of money and personal relationships."
"This is what your grandfather said. It seems that your grandfather's heart is as bright as a mirror, and his heart can be compared with the sun and the moon."
"Aunt Li's heart is the mirror of the sun and the moon. The reason why she didn't mention Master Li in her suicide note to Li Li and Li Ya was that she would rather wrong herself than ruin Master Li's reputation as a great scholar in Yancheng.
"
"Master Jiujin, please forgive me for being disrespectful to Grandpa Tang and you before. I'm sorry for my mother and sorry for my father."
Li Ya walked up to Tang Qing, bent her knees, and was about to kneel down.
Tang Qing hurriedly stood up and stretched out his hands to hold Li Ya, hugged her in his arms, and whispered in her ear:
"There is no need to say such words between you and me. You will understand more about the origins between the Tang family and the Li family in the future."
"Master Jiujin, can you tell me now?"
Li Ya buried her face on Tang Qing's shoulder and softly begged Tang Qing.
"Liya, there are some things that I shouldn't tell you, nor should others tell you."
"Master Jiujin, who should tell me?"
"Li Li, your sister."
"Oh, I've counted. Thank you, Master Jiujin."
"Liya, I haven't changed my clothes for several days. Don't make your clothes dirty."
Tang Qing wanted to push Li Ya away.
"Master Jiujin, you and Grandpa Tang are the cleanest people in the world."
Li Ya refused to let go of Tang Qing.
"Go and sit down, I have something important to discuss with you."
"What's going on? Just tell me like this."
"You have to sit down before I can talk to you."
"Why?"
"Because this matter is very sacred, we cannot desecrate the sacred love between your parents."
"good."
Li Ya let go of Tang Qing, pulled a stool and sat down in front of Tang Qing.
Tang Qing also sat upright. She asked her toes and toes first and said:
"Master Tiejiao, after the renovation of the old courtyard is completed, how do you plan to tidy up this place?"
"Master Jiujin, I haven't considered this, and Manager Li has never made a request."
"Master Jiujin, how else can we tidy up this land?"
"That's right, at most we can pour cement and it will be easier to walk on rainy days."
"Master Jiujin, it's better for you to stop thinking about it and tell me that important thing."
