Chapter 69: Remarry?
"I didn't touch her!" After telling Qiu Shuanghua's origins, Shui Shiqiao suddenly blurted out in the silence and depression between the two that almost made the air explode.
After seeing Liuli's blank expression, he started to speak more smoothly, "After the ceremony, including the wedding ceremony, I...I never touched her!"
Liuli's face turned red, and she instantly understood what Shui Shiqiao meant. This meant that Qiu Shuanghua's retching that day had nothing to do with pregnancy. But what could this mean? This marriage is irrevocable!
Shui Shiqiao took a few steps forward and grabbed Liuli's hand. Liuli struggled twice, but Shui Shiqiao held on tightly, as if he was afraid that if he let go, they would never see each other again.
"I've always wanted to tell you, but I didn't have the chance. I wrote a letter, but I couldn't explain it clearly." Shui Shiqiao was very anxious, "I have no choice but to marry her. I can't let my mother not close her eyes before leaving. I also agree.
If you marry my mother, you must take good care of her."
Liuli couldn't bear to listen and struggled fiercely.
Shui Shiqiao felt great grief and impulsively hugged Liuli into his arms, "Listen to my explanation! Listen to my explanation!"
"I didn't blame you." Liuli growled, "I knew you were helpless, I knew you had no choice, and I didn't blame you at all. But since you agreed to Mrs. Shi, the facts cannot be changed. Whether you explain or not, what else can you do?
What’s the point?”
"It can be changed!" Shui Shiqiao refused to let go of the person in his arms until he died, "The sky can change, Chao Gang can be overthrown, there is nothing that cannot be changed!"
"I know very well that you are a person who honors your promises and is a person of utmost filial piety. Can your promise to Mrs. Shi be changed? It will not change even as time goes by!"
"Yes, it won't change!" Shuishi Qiao pulled Liuli away, but clasped her shoulders, not letting her escape, "But I promised my mother to take care of Shuanghua, but I didn't say that I would stay with her husband and wife for the rest of my life!"
"What did you say!" Liuli was stunned. Although the sound of "Shuanghua" made her feel as if she was being stung, she could hear the following sentence clearly and it was hard to understand for a moment.
Shui Shiqiao took a deep breath. He was sure that Liuli would not run away immediately, and then he slowly let go of his hand and said, "It is indeed my mother's destiny to marry Shuanghua. My mother was already unconscious at the time and could not hear what I told her.
She, if you and I were in love, she suffered a life of hardship. Her only wish before she died, I, as a son of man, must fulfill. But after the funeral, Shuanghua and I confessed our feelings for you..."
"You..." No wonder, she always felt that the way her new sister-in-law looked at her was not right.
"She is a sensible person, very understanding, and she even asked for divorce." Shui Shiqiao didn't wait for Liuli to speak. He continued, "But since I promised my mother to take good care of her, I can't let her fall into the situation of an abandoned wife.
.And you, I will not let go! I only like you, and I have liked you since the day you were picked up by the eldest lady. How can I tolerate others in my heart! So I was honest with her, and finally decided to take her to Beijing. After all, Jiangnan
The folk customs are not as good as those in the capital, and it is difficult to be happy after a divorce. Furthermore, if I leave her in the south of the Yangtze River to observe filial piety, I am afraid it will be even harder to find a good husband for her."
"You brought her to Tokyo to get her to remarry?" Liuli's logical thinking was very strong. But at this time, she was still confused because she really didn't expect this to be the case.
"Of course... we can't do it openly, but this is not a whim." Shui Shiqiao was a little embarrassed, but very serious, "Liu Li, as long as the day changes, people will also change. At that time, we avenged the eldest lady, and from then on
The sky is high and the water is gone, Shuanghua has changed her identity and background, and gained freedom. With her beauty and talent, what kind of man can't marry her? She can live a good life, and I have not violated my mother's wishes. On the contrary, she and I are forced to marry each other.
How can she be happy if we are tied together and I am thinking of you? She is a smart woman and will not cling to me. Now we live together in Jumingtang, but it is just to hide it from others. In fact, we live in separate rooms.
In Jiangnan, the emperor’s people often spied on you!”
"But if she stays in Jiangnan and doesn't show up, wouldn't it be more convenient to change her identity in the future?" Fake death or something is not impossible, as long as Qiu Shuanghua is willing to cooperate. But, will she do it? Will she really do it?
"She said that she has to make the decision on this marriage, and it has to be what she likes." Shui Shiqiao smiled bitterly, "She actually has very high vision, and Tokyo is the leader of the Great Zhao Kingdom, with a lot of young talents. I
I already feel sorry for her, and I no longer want to force her to marry anyone, or... let her be alone for the rest of her life, like my mother did."
I'm afraid, the words "like my mother" are the thoughts that hurt Shi Shi's heart.
Liuli suddenly felt discouraged.
This method seems feasible, but it is like a castle in the air. Can it really become a reality? It's not that she doesn't believe in stones, but with such a beautiful woman staying with her day and night, can he really not be tempted? His heart is not really a stone.
And Qiu Shuanghua can really let go of a man as good as Shitou? Does he really not like her?
Too many unknowns!
Don't blame her for being petty. After all, she is a woman, and she knows very well that there is a method called subtlety, and there is a method called moisturizing things silently. To rob, you don't necessarily have to use a sword or a gun. To fight, you don't necessarily have to attack fiercely.
If Qiu Shuanghua really wants to help them, her personality is so noble that she will repay with her life. What if Qiu Shuanghua just retreats in order to advance? Is she going to fall into the rivalry between her love rivals? In the end, she becomes a trouble, a burden, worrying about gains and losses.
A woman who has lost her original intention and hysteria has left this beautiful first love full of holes. However, no matter what Qiu Shuanghua's true intentions are, she has no position to directly judge, approve or object. In this matter
During the incident, she ridiculously became an outsider, unable to do anything or say anything. But Qiu Shuanghua, because of her attitude of giving up and fulfilling, and because of Shitou's guilt, stood on the moral high ground early on.
I just hope that she will judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
"Shitou, I'm tired." After a long silence, Liuli suddenly felt depressed, "No matter what it is, no matter what you do, let's take it slow and see. Don't force me to express my position, because no one can predict the future.
I don’t know if your method will work.”
"It will definitely work!" Shui Shiqiao took Liuli's hand again, "I know it's not easy, but as long as I have a firm heart, I can make everyone have a happy ending. Liuli, I just need time. Just wait for me.
Just think of it as a test of our relationship. Don't give up on me so early and choose Xiao Zhen."
"In the beginning, it was 'we' who chose Xiao Zhen."
"At least you still have a long period of filial piety, so you don't have to marry him right away." Shui Shiqiao suddenly became very irritable, and his attitude was very ostrich, "Our plan has to be advanced, I want to make this day change as soon as possible!" Then he can take care of him.
He wanted her to fly away. For this reason, he did not hesitate to deepen his cooperation with Xiao Shiyi. Even if it was to seek skin from a tiger, even if he knew that Xiao Shishi had no good intentions for Liuli.
Why doesn't Liuli want to avenge Huo Honglian as soon as possible? In fact, their progress has already exceeded her expectations. Due to Xiao Shiyi's intervention, the variables are increasing and the speed is accelerating. A few days ago, she was upset because of Shitou's marriage.
She almost harmed Qing Ning and Li Doudou. No matter what, she can no longer be so fragile in the future.
With this thought in mind, she walked to the bed and took out something from the pillow. She walked up to Shui Shiqiao and handed it to him.
"Give it back to you," she said.
Shui Shiqiao lowered his eyes. He suddenly felt uncomfortable and put on a resisting stance, "No, I won't accept it!"
It was a dagger, which he gave to her with his own hands before he went to Beijing. He once said: If you feel lonely, just take it. It means that I am by your side. Now that she wants to return it, he dare not take it. He cannot take it.
.
"Give it back!" Liuli said stubbornly.
But when he saw Shui Shiqiao's face turned pale and his eyes filled with the fear of losing her, he couldn't help but soften his heart and sighed, "I feel lonely, but you can't stand by my side, even if you are pretending, you still have scruples.
So you take it, and when one day you can stay with me openly, I will take it again."
Shui Shiqiao struggled in his heart, fearing that if he took it back, he would not be able to send it out again. But he lowered his head and saw Liuli's clear and firm eyes, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand.
Liuli, his Liuli, dislikes ambiguity the most, and acts the most straightforwardly. Therefore, love is love, and not loving means not loving. She is so courageous that she never bothers to pretend. She is so proud, so she will not interact with others.
Share. But she agreed, as long as he can regain his freedom, she will wait for him.
The fishskin case, hardwood handle, and scabbard have no gorgeous decorations, but have smooth polished textures. As soon as you see it, you can tell that this dagger is often placed in the palm of your hand and rubbed. Even now, it seems to still have a little fragrance,
A little bit of body temperature.
"Believe me, I will let you accept it again." He reluctantly put away his sentiments and put the dagger into his arms with great care. Shui Shiqiao said again, "You don't have to have any extra thoughts about Shuanghua, just treat it as an ordinary sister.
"
Liuli frowned, because she suddenly thought of a possibility, a very scary possibility, "Our matter is not only the relationship between you and me, but also the things we are planning. How much does Qiu Shuanghua know?"
She didn't know Qiu Shuanghua, and probably Shitou didn't either. His relationship with his "wife" only lasted a few years when he was a child. Later, he sneaked away to the northwest to work as a stableboy for his sister, and Qiu Shuanghua was abducted. When they met again,
Just before the bed collapsed, at the wedding ceremony and during the funeral.
And since she met her new sister-in-law, she has been indulging in emotional pain, but she has forgotten that since Qiu Shuanghua is Shi Shuanghua, Mrs. Shi's former adopted daughter, and the person she replaced, she should know that she is a fake. If
Qiu Shuanghua is not one of her own but she has mastered the secret, which is a big hidden danger! If Qiu Shuanghua becomes evil, she will lose far more than just love!
This thought made her break into a cold sweat.
"We are not brothers and sisters, Shuanghua naturally understands." Shui Shiqiao looked calm, "I don't know how much my mother has told her, but after testing, she doesn't know much. You should believe my mother.
The stakes are so high that even if she is facing her beloved daughter, she will not say anything."
Hearing what Shui Shiqiao said, Liuli relaxed a little, but she still felt wary. Because this meant that she had something in Qiu Shuanghua's hands. If the "new sister-in-law" wanted to spy, or had other ideas... In the world
There is no wall that is airtight.
Suddenly, her crisis appeared!
…………………………
…………………………
…………66 has something to say……
It’s the end of the month, so I’d better ask for my pink votes shamelessly. Because everyone has been supporting me until today, and if I work hard, I can stay in the top ten. If I fall at the last moment, I won’t even be able to vote for my previous votes.
Thank you. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
ps: A Qiu Shuanghua shocked everyone. I think the new gang leader’s wife is from Xiao Zuo. Although 66 does not spoil the story, we must deny this speculation. Everyone thinks that although Xiao Zuo is the emperor , but he is not a god. It is impossible for him to find out the secret of his adopted daughter that Mrs. Shi has hidden so deeply. Moreover, if he sent someone to prove that he knew that Liuli was Shui Shiqiao's fake sister, he would have been alert a long time ago and even My own son is hooking up with me? This makes no sense. If this guy named Qiu is not a good person, he must have other secrets. Let me reveal them slowly. The story is coming again.
Thanks for the pink votes:
