CH 49
Shen Qi was muddleheaded, being held firmly by mother Su’s hand and supported by everyone from the Su family, thus entering the general door. Shen Qi had a feeling. It was no exaggeration to say that the Su residence was almost beating gongs and drums when they took her into the house.
Mother Su identified Shen Qi as her daughter Little Seven and pulled Shen Qi along the way, telling her all the way to recognize the way and talked endlessly about the change in the family over the years. Shen Qi was a subordinate in the prince’s palace. In Prince Xuan’s palace, she had seen the kind of landscapes like pavilions and pavilions with ten steps and scenery she’d enjoyed for many years. Therefore, when she first arrived at the general’s residence, she didn’t appear embarrassed. It was more like a complex emotion similar to timidity to the point of missing home, which was difficult to say.
Shen Qi kept repressing her emotions until mother Su pushed open the door panels as if opening a new world and as if handing her a key to help her find her past.
It was exactly as mother Su said. This spacious and transparent room looked more like a little girl’s room because there were more children’s toys in the room apart from the bestowed treasures. Mother Su pulled Shen Qi’s little hand for half a day in this room and showed the same thing to her and told her story by story.
At first, Shen Qi only listened in silence, but she tried to smile as much as possible at the gentle and enthusiastic mother Su. Shen Qi used to smile less often but in the past, she practiced smiling in the mirror because she wanted to smile for Shen Zhonghua. There was no need for others to say, even she thought it was stiff and pretentious. However, mother Su held her small face and said: “Our family’s Little Seven smile is really beautiful!”
Then Shen Qi couldn’t hold back as hot tears burst out of her eyes. Mother Su also cried. Mother and daughter embraced each other and cried together, but they were tears of joy.
On that day, in addition to reminiscing about the past, mother Su hastened insisted on dragging Shen Qi to the street. It was also at this time that the always gentle mother Su didn’t shirk Shen Qi and resolutely pulled her to buy rouge gouache at Yunbin Huayan Building, jewelry and hair ornaments at Zhenlong Pavilion, the most expensive fabrics now at Chao Hui Fang and find the best tailor to make clothes for Shen Qi.
On this day, Shen Qi lived like a dream. The turning point was too big and the happiness came too suddenly. She had a hard time adapting.
In the evening, mother Su even abandoned her beloved husband and hugged Shen Qi to sleep.
Father Su, who had a hard time sleeping alone, had to open two altars of old wine to find his sons to drink. Drinking and drinking, suddenly he also cried. When the daughter was found, he was as happy as mother Su, but as a mature and stable man, naturally, he couldn’t express his emotions directly like mother Su, let alone Little Seven was now a grown-up woman.
Father Su wiped his tears while saying: “You can no longer hold Little Seven in a circle and raise high!”
But Su?Dalang?said seriously: “Father, as long as you don’t break your waist. If you want to raise, you can still raise!”
“Little Seven came back......” Father Su continued to sob spasmodically as if he hadn’t heard him: “You look at how happy your mother is. There is more spirit for the whole day!”
Su Shengfeng nodded and echoed: “Yes, younger sister is finally found. Mother’s condition will naturally improve gradually and her health will become better and better.”
It would have been better if Su Shengfeng didn’t say anything. As soon as he spoke, father Su got angry at once. He grabbed a handful of shelled peanuts and threw them over, responsibility asked: “Little brat! You’ve found Little Seven. Why didn’t you tell your father and mother! Insisted on being careful! You take a look at that face. It’s exactly the same as when your mother was young! Do you still need to consider it at length?!”
Su Shengfeng was too lazy to argue with a drunker. He turned his head and said to the second brother: “If the confession Shen Zhonghua obtained from torturing mother Qiu is true, then Xue-er...... then how do you deal with Su Lianxue?”
This was indeed a problem.
“Although she has no blood related to our Su family, for so many years, our parents have been treating her as their own daughter. Our brothers also pampered her and loved her like our younger sister. But......” Su Lansheng?Erlang?pondered for a moment and said with some difficulty: “If what mother Qiu said is true, not to mention that at that time she was so young and already had such a shrewd mind. She solely made Little Seven stranded outside, making Father and Mother’s own flesh and blood separated to this point. This is absolutely not tolerated!”
* * * *
These words finally reached Su Lianxue’s ears.
She lost a big temper and smashed things in the room angrily. Even when the servant girl knelt on the ground to clean up the flower vase fragments, she lifted her foot and stepped on the servant girl’s hand.
“What kind of person is she? She is just a sl*t! What is a person that dies? She is just a lowly slave who climbed into the master’s bed without knowing shame!” The fragments stabbed into the servant girl’s hand. The servant girl painfully begged for mercy, but Su Lianxue’s face became more ferocious: “I’m the only young miss of the general! Only me! Father, Mother, and older brothers and everyone else, their most loved one is clearly me!
“She snatched older brother Zhonghua, but she still wanted to snatch my parents and older brothers’ love for me?!” Up till now, Su Lianxue still didn’t realize it at all. It was never Shen Qi who wanted to grab these things which originally should belong to her.
“I won’t let her succeed!” Su Lianxue’s heart gave birth to a plan. Her eyes revealed the viciousness: “I’ll let older brother Zhonghua and the Su family see her true nature clearly. They should know that she is just Shen Qi, not Su Tanning! She’s just a sl*t! A lewd, wh*re woman! The only young miss of the general is only me!”
