Chapter 49 Is She Not a Mother Anymore?
"Most of it is because of money!" Madam Su smiled bitterly, "I don't know when she started asking me for money. Every time the amount was huge, often tens of thousands of taels. I thought that she had many children in her family and Jiang Fei's salary
It’s not much, but maybe it’s a bit tight, so I’ll give it to her every time she asks for it! But then she asked for it more and more frequently, and I gradually couldn’t hold it anymore! The Su family has a large population, and they live on salary, so I gave it to them all.
Without her, how will the Su family live?"
"Moreover, just for daily life, how can we need to spend so much money? I gave her all the money in my private treasury! One time, she asked for it again, so I said a few more words, asking her to live within her means.
, she became more frugal, and she started to get angry and make a lot of noise, so that everyone could not live in peace for years!"
When Mrs. Su thought of these old things, her mood became more and more depressed.
"Then why did she argue with her second aunt?" Su Jinghan looked at Mrs. Zhou.
"It's also because of money!" Ms. Zhou replied, "Not only did she ask for money from her mother, but she also asked for money from everyone in the family! Everyone thought she was a little strange and wondered if she had been deceived by someone, so they kindly asked more questions.
Then she changed her face and settled accounts with us, telling us how many things she had bought for us in the past and how much they were worth, but now she is in trouble and her parents and brothers are unwilling to help..."
Zhou said with a sigh: "I always feel that her temperament has changed drastically since then!"
"At that time, when was it?" Su Li had been listening carefully and asked quickly.
"It seems that it was after giving birth to you, right?" Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Su, "Mom, but the money started to be asked for during the Spring Festival that year?"
"Probably!" Mrs. Su nodded, "However, after so many years, I can't remember it clearly!"
"Then does grandma remember what it was like when she gave birth to me?" Su Li asked, "Actually, I still don't know that I was hugged by mistake! Even if she and Li Mei gave birth to their children at the same time, they couldn't be in the same room.
Is it inside? The swaddling clothes used cannot be the same, right? It should be easy to recognize, right? Why is it wrong? "
"I don't know the specific situation!" Mrs. Su shook her head. "That year, the late emperor was seriously ill, the prince was assassinated, and the court was in turmoil. All the princes in the court wanted to inherit the throne, and the five dragons seized the throne and raised their own troops.
, war smoke is everywhere, the capital is in chaos, everyone is in danger, your mother has no choice but to take you back to your father's ancestral home for a temporary shelter! Who would have thought that when you were walking to the outskirts of Chenzhou County, you suddenly had fetal contractions and gave birth prematurely? As a last resort, she
Choose a nearby farmer to give birth! At that time, we were guarding the border in a far away town. There were constant wars all day long, the situation was chaotic, and there were no letters. It took almost half a year before we learned about your mother!"
"What happened after that?" Su Li asked, "Did anything unusual happen?"
Mrs. Su thought for a while, shook her head, and looked at Mr. Zhou again: "My dear, do you remember anything wrong?"
"No!" Ms. Zhou shook her head, "Due to the tense war situation, we were unable to return to the capital that year! But we bought a lot of southern specialties and sent them back to the capital... Ah, by the way, my sister-in-law didn't return the gift that year! Is this a special thing?
Something?"
"Forget it!" Su Li continued to ask, "Aside from not returning the gift, is there anything else unusual about her?"
"This..." Mrs. Zhou tried hard to think, and then remembered something, and said: "She never wrote to us again! Yes, from that year on, my sister-in-law and our communication were interrupted! She used to write lovely letters
I wrote letters, sometimes several in a month! It was quite interesting for her to write letters. Although we were thousands of miles apart, we kept in touch with each other through letters all day long! But after I gave birth to you, until now, we have never seen each other again.
There was no trace of her ink! I asked her about it later, and she said she injured her hand during the military turmoil!"
"Injured her hand?" Su Li was startled, "But her hands are very good, there is no problem!"
"That's her excuse!" Mrs. Zhou sighed, "She doesn't want to write to us anymore!"
"How is her handwriting?" Su Li asked again, "Does she like writing, drawing, etc.?"
"Of course I like it!" Ms. Zhou replied, "Her calligraphy and painting are outstanding! It was my mother who invited us to teach her since she was a child! Right? Mother!"
She looked at Mrs. Su.
Mrs. Su nodded: "Yes! I gave birth to five sons before I got her as a daughter. She must be as precious as anything! The whole family is a rough and savage military commander, so I wholeheartedly thought about training her to become a piano."
A lady who is good at chess, calligraphy and painting! She is also quite spiritual and is good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting!"
Su Li was shocked when he heard this: "But, as far as I know, she has never written at home, let alone painted! As for the two games of piano and chess, I have never seen her play with anyone, nor have I ever seen her play chess with anyone.
Played the piano!"
"How is this possible?" Mrs. Su was startled. "Your mother used to love these things and often entertained herself with calligraphy, painting and musical instruments. How could she suddenly abandon them? Are you mistaken?"
"I'm sure!" Su Li said firmly.
She had been in the Hou Mansion for more than a year, and she had an admiration for the Su family, so she always paid attention to her every move.
Most importantly, during this year, Su never wrote or painted, and he never touched the piano... No!"
She suddenly remembered something and blurted out: "There is no desk in her house at all! There is no piano or chess! Instead, there are many embroidery stands! Her most common pastime is embroidery!"
"Embroidery?" Mrs. Su was shocked, "How could she like embroidery? She hates embroidery! I asked her to learn it before, but she was pricked by needles many times and cried in the yard so angry that I stopped forcing her.
Why is she taking this as a pastime now?"
"If it's as grandma said, her embroidery skills should be extremely poor!" Su Li said, "But the truth is just the opposite. Her embroidery skills are excellent! What she embroiders can even be compared to the best embroiderers in Beijing.
Everyone should give a thumbs up!"
"How could this happen?" Mrs. Su and Mrs. Zhou looked at each other, both extremely surprised!
Su Li already had a vague and bold guess in his mind...
"Grandma, aunt, do you think she is no longer a mother?" She expressed her suspicion all along, "That's why she is so abnormal!"
She had this suspicion in her previous life.
At that time, she simply felt that her biological mother should not treat her like this. If she was not her biological mother, she would feel better.
But after talking so much with her grandmother and aunt, she suddenly felt that something was wrong!
When a person experiences something, his or her situation may indeed change drastically.
However, no matter what you do, some living habits cannot be changed.
