Xie Shuhua couldn't help being a little stunned, but she quickly calmed down, shook her head aggrievedly and said: "Of course not, I have always felt that the fourth sister is simple and kind-hearted, and I have always believed that our fate is a gift from God, but
…”
As she spoke, two big tears rolled down her face. When she looked at Xie Songhua, her eyes were a little sad, "But today I clearly saw that before you handed me the feather, you were
I checked it specially. At that time, I thought you were afraid that it might be damaged, but after you gave it to me, you didn’t look at it again when you gave it to the other sisters."
Her tone was trembling, as if she was remembering something scary, and she turned to the others, "If any sisters had noticed at that time, before me, the fourth sister was very careful when distributing feathers."
But no one answered for a while. When Xie Shuhua glanced at Xie Li, Xie Li said softly: "It seems... the fourth sister also checked it when she sent it to me."
Her seat is before Xie Shuhua.
Xie Songhua chuckled lightly, "Is there more? Has anyone else seen it?"
No one answered.
Qi stood up suddenly, pointed at Xie Songhua and said, "You are still laughing and doing such a vicious thing..."
"What? You convicted me so quickly?" Xie Songhua raised his eyebrows and glanced at Mrs. Qi, then turned to Xie Shuhua, "Since you said it was me who harmed you, then tell me why I harmed you?"
"Why could this be?" Xie Sihua sneered, "Everyone knows that she occupies the magpie's nest! And the second aunt is so partial, don't you hate Cai Qi..."
"Sihua!" Mrs. Yu immediately interrupted her daughter's voice with her eyes, without even a hint of a smile on her face.
Mrs. Qi couldn't help but feel shocked and angry. She glanced at Xie Sihua hatefully, and then turned around to see Xie Shuhua crying: "I know I shouldn't stay at Xie's house and take your place, but
I have told Fourth Sister many times that I will not take anything from you. To the Xie family, I am just..."
"Okay, these clichés are here again," Xie Songhua waved his hand, "Since I entered this house, I have never said a word about you occupying my seat. From the beginning to the end, you are crying and hurting yourself in front of others.
Self-pity.”
Xie Shuhua was stunned for a moment by what she said, while the other girls couldn't help but look at each other.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed the case.
Xie Songhua simply stood up, with his back straight, "Since you like to talk about this, then I will make it clear in front of everyone today. Whether you Xie Shuhua is in the Xie family or not has nothing to do with my half penny.
.Because it won’t make the slightest difference to me whether you are here or not.”
She turned to Xie Shuhua and looked at her condescendingly, "Could it be that the Xie family cannot afford to raise another daughter? Whether you are here or not, my surname is Xie, and the blood of the Xie family flows in my body.
My food and clothing will not be missing from the house. As for the love of my relatives, can it be said that if you leave, my wife will love me more? Can everyone transfer their feelings for you to me? "
She said as if she had heard some joke, "You are already a grown-up, how can you be like a child grabbing candy and grabbing the favor of adults? Third sister, if you have this interest, then
I'm really sorry, I don't have one."
"You are so forceful in what you say, no one believes it!" It was Xie Qionghua, the eldest son, who answered. Next to her, Mrs. An also had a sarcastic smile on her face.
"You don't believe it because you don't know what life was like for me in the past," Xie Songhua pointed to the clothes on his body, "I only wore clothes like this outside Mr. Li's door in the town during the Chinese New Year.
I saw Mrs. Li wearing it.
Usually when my maid goes to the kitchen late and has nothing to eat, she will bring me a bowl of noodles. But these noodles are topped with minced meat. In our place, we can only eat a bowl of noodles in the town.
Twelve cents can be sold for three kilograms of rice, enough to feed our family for two or three days.
Look at my hands again. They are just a pair of hands that chop wood, carry water, and light a fire for cooking. Now I have to be waited on to apply ointment morning and night. In the past, I couldn’t even imagine it."
The old lady couldn't help but feel a little moved when she heard this, "Poor child."
Xie Songhua smiled sweetly after hearing this, "Grandma, I'm not pitiful. Now that I'm back, my life now is so different from before, because now I only feel grateful and cherish my blessings.
I just came back from outside. I don’t understand anything. Poems, books, etiquette, and knitting girls are not as good as the sisters in the house. Ten fingers are still long when they are stretched out. The sisters are all so good. The elders like some more. That’s not normal.
But?
So after I came back, I only thought about how to keep up with my sisters and not embarrass my family in the outside world, so I couldn’t think about what I had and what I didn’t.”
What she said was frank and well-founded.
Especially what she said about the suffering she suffered outside in the past, and the gratitude in her face and eyes now, were really touching.
Even Mrs. Qi couldn't help but frown slightly, with a bit of shame and annoyance in her eyes.
Xie Shuhua couldn't help but be shocked. When did Xie Songhua's articulation become so powerful?!
No! We can’t let her succeed!
She was moved in her heart and suddenly started coughing. Qi immediately came to her senses and wanted to support her.
However, Xie Shuhua struggled to get off the ground and bowed softly to Xie Songhua, "I admire the beauty of my fourth sister. In the past, it was probably because I felt insecure in my heart that I was always afraid that you would drive me away. If you call me
You misunderstood, I apologize to Fourth Sister."
As she spoke, she coughed twice. Qi quickly went to help her, but she stopped her, "But Fourth Sister, do you really not know where the scorpions on my feathers come from?"
An said: "That's right! Then where did this scorpion come from?"
Xie Songhua looked at her with a smile, "So, third sister, do you still think I set the scorpion?"
Xie Shuhua lowered her eyes and pondered for two seconds before speaking: "Don't you ever get angry when I steal my lesson from you, my fourth sister?"
"What do you mean?! What are you stealing?" Xie Sihua immediately forgot his mother's warning and asked loudly.
Xie Shuhua suddenly knelt down to the old lady and Xie Yuncang above, "Grandma, father, actually, when I was detained before, I sneaked out."
Then he revealed that he bribed Xie Li and asked Xie Li to help him hide behind the window and study secretly.
"When the fourth sister found me behind that day, she was very angry and scolded me loudly. Later, when grandma Ying asked us to perform, the fourth sister was very unhappy. When everyone left school yesterday, the fourth sister was still behind.
At the end, she said she wanted me to look good."
Wow, these words really come out of your mouth!
What came last? It was clearly because Grandma Ying left her to say a few words before she was one step slower than others, okay?
And it was Xie Shuhua who took his time slowly before the two of them met.
It seems that yesterday was creating evidence.
Xie Li had no choice but to stand up and admit what Xie Shuhua said.
Also testifying were several maids on duty at Huanchun Pavilion.
Qi's face became ugly again, her eyes were firmly locked on Xie Songhua, "You..."
Xie Yuncang turned to Xie Songhua, "What do you have to say about what your third sister said?"
Xie Songhua glanced sideways at Xie Shuhua, who was sobbing, and smiled lightly, "What's there to say? Just slander!"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly turned to Grandma Ying and said, "Mammy, do you think so?"
Nanny Ying was startled by her sudden question, "I don't know what the fourth girl is talking about?"
"I don't know?" Xie Songhua said with a bit of surprise on his face, "That's impossible! Third sister learned the rules and etiquette from you, and she learned them better than all of us. How could she value my meager skills?
both."
These words immediately shocked everyone, and Nanny Ying, who always kept her expression strictly controlled, couldn't help but get angry, "Fourth girl, what are you talking about?!"
