Lying on the bed fully clothed, Su Luo pulled the quilt over her head.
The moment the light dimmed completely, the tears she had been crying for all day burst out. She huddled under the quilt and huddled in a ball.
"Dad, mother..."
It has been five years since her parents passed away, and Su Luo has never missed her as much as she does today.
Even saying these few words makes my heart twist like a knife.
The sound of Chun Xing washing her hands outside was still very obvious. Su Luo didn't dare to cry. She bit the quilt cover with her teeth and cried softly.
In the five years since she went to Zhenninghou Mansion, she pleased everyone and greeted everyone with a smile all day long. Even if it was her parents' memorial day, she was afraid that the people in Zhenninghou Mansion would be unhappy, so she didn't dare to do anything too much. But those words she said today were just like that.
He was caught off guard and hit her head and face roughly and directly.
If those are true.
Su Luo felt like a clown jumping up and down.
From the moment she entered Zhen Ninghou Mansion, she, who was only ten years old, remembered her identity. She was Chen Heng's fiancée. For this identity, she used all her strength to be a qualified fiancée...
Su Luo felt angry and aggrieved.
Even though she was simply trying hard for five years, Chen Heng still didn't have her in his heart, and she was not so aggrieved.
If she doesn’t have it, she won’t have it. She can’t get it even if she tries hard, so she just gives up.
But her efforts in the past five years...are probably stabbing the heart of her parents who are still alive in heaven.
"It's my daughter's unfilial piety that has made my brother feel wronged, and my parents' spirits in heaven cannot rest in peace."
Su Luo lifted the quilt off her head and wiped away her tears with such force that the ends of her eyes turned red.
Why are you crying?
Cry only when you are helpless.
She is crying here, while many people are laughing.
Why should she cry?
The broken teardrops were wiped away fiercely. Su Luo stood up, folded the messed up quilt neatly, scooped out a ladle of water, twisted the handkerchief, and wiped her face.
It's cold in spring, and the water in the tank makes people's scalp numb.
The chill made Su Luo completely clear her head.
No matter what that person said today is true or false, no matter whether Zhenninghou Mansion has wronged her parents or not, now she has no ability to compete with Zhenninghou Mansion, let alone give her father a share of honor.
She has to work hard, maybe one day she will have this ability.
Chun Xing came in with a small bowl of large intestines washed with gray noodles. The lights were dim at night, but she didn't see anything wrong on Su Luo's face. Her voice was full of joy, "I just calculated it, and I will send two to Yunxiang Restaurant every day."
Barrels, plus what we sell ourselves, we will need at least three barrels a day, I am afraid that the butcher can't sell us that much sewage every day."
Su Luo hung up the handkerchief, "I'm going to make a real reservation tomorrow to see if I can order some water from the butcher over there. If I can, we'll take it all."
Chun Xing was stunned for a moment, "Zhending? But Zhending and Chunxi Town are so far away. How much time will it take to collect the water every day?"
Su Luo thought about it on the way back, "Let's buy a mule cart tomorrow. Our family is doing business, and it is always more convenient to have a cart. If we drive the mule cart by ourselves, it will only take an hour to go back and forth, which is fast."
Chun Xing blinked, feeling that something was not right with her young lady, "Even if the mule cart is fast, we can't collect all Zhending's sewage, we can't afford so much."
As he was talking, Su Zimu's voice sounded outside.
"Brother, big brother!"
The child's voice screamed urgently, and Su Luo and Chun Xing rushed out.
"What's wrong?" Su Luo stepped out of the threshold and looked at Su Zimu.
Su Zimu was breathing heavily, with a look of fear on his face, and a pair of dark eyes filled with uneasiness under the moonlight, "I saw Chen Heng, right at the entrance of the alley."
Chun Xing suddenly took a breath of air.
Su Zimu was so frightened, "Sister, do you want to go back with him? Do you want to go back? Do you want to go back?"
Su Zimu repeatedly checked with Su Luo, and the little expression on his face made Su Luo's heart, which had been stabbed by the tip of a knife, uncomfortable.
He took a few steps forward and picked up Su Zimu. Su Luo kissed him on the cheek, "Don't worry Zimu, I won't go back with him."
"Sister, are you sure? What if he insists on letting you go back? If you don't go back, will he beat us like he beat Zhang Xiaochuan's father?"
Chun Xing leaned her back against the door panel, her heart beating thumpingly.
To be honest, when she heard that the people at the dock were beaten by people from the Zhenninghou Mansion, she was so shocked that she couldn't even breathe.
She had worked as a maid in Zhenninghou Mansion for so many years, but she never knew that Zhenninghou Mansion would attack the common people.
But now that the facts are before their eyes, Chun Xing is also afraid that Chen Heng will treat them like that.
Su Luo rubbed Zimu's little head and said, "Don't worry Zimu, sister promises you that we will not go back with him unless we go back with him. Don't be afraid. Tomorrow, sister and I will go to the street to pick out a mule cart. Let's buy a mule cart."
When Su Zimu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Really? We want to buy a mule cart? Can a mule be ridden? Like a horse? Chen Ming has a pony. I looked twice and he stabbed me with a needle.
, what’s so great about it.”
"He pricked you with a needle?" Su Luo's heart was almost broken by her brother. She didn't know how much more she had.
Chun Xing was also a little surprised, she didn't know what happened.
Su Zimu didn't seem to notice Su Luo's pain. He nodded, pouted his little mouth, and said with an aggrieved face, "Yeah, he poked my finger with a needle and warned me that if I tell you, I will be thrown out of the house."
Get out of there."
Su Luo's hand holding Su Zimu tightened.
Not to mention hearing what she said today, even if she hadn't heard it, she would definitely not go back to Zhenninghou Mansion again.
After comforting Su Zimu, Su Luo asked him, "Where did you see Chen Heng at the entrance of the alley? What was he doing?"
Su Zimu twisted his fingers and said, "I saw him taking Jinbao to a house. Zhang Xiaochuan said that the house in that house was for the wife of the Crown Prince."
Serving the Crown Prince's wife?
The woman who was serving Gu Yao that I met in front of the butcher shop that day?
She was afraid that Chen Heng would come looking for her, but in the end, even if they came to this alley, they would be looking for Gu Yao's people.
Su Luo touched the corner of her mouth with the tip of her tongue, "Okay, sister, I understand. Zimu goes and washes his hands. We'll eat later. Don't run out these days."
Su Luo put Su Zimu down, and Su Zimu obediently went to wash his hands without saying anything else.
Chun Xing took a breath and moved closer to Su Luo.
There are people who serve Gu Yao in Chunxi Town. Chun Xing has also heard about it. The neighbors in the small street chat about the gossip in the town when they have nothing to do. Now the biggest gossip in the town is the people from Zhenninghou Mansion.
Hit the dock as a coolie.
The mother-in-law who served Gu Yao naturally became the topic of discussion.
"Why did the prince go to her house?" Chun Xing was a little puzzled.
Su Luo thought for a while and said: "When I buy a mule cart tomorrow, I'll buy two more dogs and a hunting dog."
This answer was completely wrong. Chun Xing frowned at the corners of her eyes and said, "Huh?"
