As long as Ye Wan nodded, Xiao Lin would send her back to her parents' home, whether she was alive or dead.
My son has not been close to her since he was a child. He is not like his father who obeys his words. Xiao Lin is more like his grandfather, who always says the same thing. When he turns against her, except for his wife, not even my mother.
give face.
With a personality like Ye Wan's, she definitely wouldn't dare to confront Xiao Lin head-on. Of course, she didn't have the courage to really die. She did so much just to test Xiao Lin's bottom line.
Xiao Lin's face was gloomy, and Ye Wan shrank.
I dare not say anything anymore.
Su Yun squeezed his hand.
Xiao Lin replied with a gentle smile, "It's okay."
"Um."
The love between the young couple is obvious to the naked eye. If Ye Wan were an elder who was a governor, she would definitely be happy for them from the bottom of her heart, but she was not.
However, due to Xiao Lin's strong pressure, Ye Wan had to swallow back all the dissatisfaction in her heart.
Mrs. Xiao stood aside with a kind smile. She really thought about Xiao Lin, and of course she hoped to see the relationship between the couple get better.
"Okay Anzi, push your mother in. Xiaoyun, come with me."
"Okay grandma."
Su Yun agreed obediently and did not take the initiative to please Ye Wan. She followed Mrs. Xiao to her room.
Just like the last time Su Yun and the others went to the city, there was still a box on the old lady's table, but this time the box was larger than the last time and the style was older.
Mrs. Xiao asked Su Yun to open the box.
Su Yun walked over and opened the carved sandalwood box.
On top of the silky brocade, a pair of delicate and delicate hair and face shone with silver light. Even Su Yun, a layman who had no knowledge of jadeite, could tell at a glance that the jade used in this set of hair and face was the most precious.
The highest quality and clear.
If this were kept in future generations, each piece would fetch a sky-high price. Not to mention that the old lady still has a complete set of hair and facial hair here.
"This is?"
Su Yun looked at Mrs. Xiao in surprise.
The old lady caressed the box and picked up the drop-shaped hairpin. There was something surging in her gray eyes, as if she was remembering something.
Su Yun remained silent without interrupting the old man.
After a while, Mrs. Xiao finally pulled her thoughts out of her memories.
"This was given to me as a betrothal gift by the Xiao family when I married your grandfather..."
Mrs. Xiao and the old man were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. They had a very good relationship, and the two families had a good relationship. They got engaged when they were very young, and got married directly when they grew up.
At that time, the Xiao family was still an aristocratic family, and Mrs. Xiao’s natal family was also from a scholarly family. It can be said that they were a talented man and a beautiful woman, and they were a perfect match...
Later, the situation changed, with social unrest and ups and downs. Mr. Xiao decided to join the revolution, and Mrs. Xiao, who was pregnant with Liujia, supported her unconditionally...
"When your grandfather left home, Anzi's father wasn't even born yet!"
Mrs. Xiao held Su Yun's hand and murmured softly.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
Su Yun doesn't know how the old lady has survived these years, but she knows that the old lady is a very great wife, a very great mother, and at the same time, she is also an ordinary person who understands justice...
"grandmother……"
Her tone was choked, her nose was sore and she wanted to cry.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help laughing and scolded her, "Silly girl, what's there to cry about?"
"Grandma, I feel so bad." Whenever Su Yun thinks of her pregnant wife, watching her husband go to the battlefield with the feeling that she will never see him again, she feels so sad that she sheds tears.
If the target were her, she really couldn't be as great as the old lady.
The old lady smiled and squeezed her hand, "We must persevere even if we feel uncomfortable. At least we still have a chance to suffer, and those who lost their lives cannot even feel the pain."
The old lady had great love in her heart. After seeing countless innocent people’s families destroyed and their wives separated, she supported her husband’s decision without any complaints, and even worked with her husband to persuade the opposing family members on both sides...
Su Yun felt so uncomfortable, and the more she listened, the more she wanted to cry. The sad emotions were due to Mrs. Xiao, and she also recalled the innocent people who sacrificed their lives in that turbulent era...
Or those countless ordinary lesbians who make the same great decisions as Mrs. Xiao...
She didn't cry out, and the way her tears kept falling was even more pitiful.
Mrs. Xiao sighed helplessly, "If you shed tears again, Anzi will say that I bullied you."
Just then, Xiao Lin's voice came from outside the room, "Xiaoyun, Doctor Song and Meiyu are here to see you."
"Uh? Oh, tell them to wait a moment, I'll come out right away." Su Yun immediately wiped away her tears and looked at the old lady sheepishly, "I'm sorry, grandma, I lost my temper."
"Silly girl."
Mrs. Xiao stroked Su Yun's hair lovingly, "You are a decisive person. It is up to you to decide how you and Anzi will live in the future."
"grandmother……"
"Your mother-in-law is confused. She could still control her when grandma was still alive. If grandma is gone..."
"Grandma, please don't talk nonsense." Su Yun quickly interrupted Mrs. Xiao, preventing her from continuing.
Mrs. Xiao smiled and said nothing.
She pushed the open box on the table in front of Su Yun, "These things are not worth much. You can use them for emergencies or leave them to my great-grandchildren. You make the decision."
The purpose of Mrs. Xiao calling Su Yun in was to hand over these things in her hand to Su Yun.
She is already old, and she doesn’t know when she will close her eyes and pass away, so it’s better to tell her grandchildren and wives as soon as possible.
As for Ye Wan, the daughter-in-law? Mrs. Xiao never thought of leaving it to her.
In the past, when the son was still alive, every time anything he gave to Ye Wan would go to the Ye family soon, the little thing, Mrs. Xiao, would not say anything and would not harm Ye Wan's face.
But this doesn't work. This is something given to her by the Xiao family, and she must give it to her daughter-in-law who can really support the Xiao family.
Su Yun repeatedly declined, but the old lady insisted.
She had no choice but to accept it.
I reached out to hold the box. I thought it was very light, but I was shocked by the weight.
She looked at the old lady in surprise.
The old lady laughed out loud, "I put dozens of small yellow croakers underneath."
Su Yun:......
She is indeed a daughter from a wealthy family. Even after going through hardships and changes, her demeanor of treating money as rubbish has not changed at all.
Listen to what the old man said, what an indifferent tone!
Dozens of small yellow croakers, that's dozens of them.
Su Yun bared her teeth, forgiving her as a common citizen. The first time she saw small yellow croakers with her own eyes was when the old lady took them out last time. There were only a few of them at that time.
Now there are dozens of them at once...
Su Yun carried the box out of Mrs. Xiao's house and returned to her room. For a while, she didn't know where to put such a valuable thing.
The sound of Xiao Lin's footsteps came from behind, and Su Yun hurriedly ran to him and tugged on the corner of his clothes, "Come quickly."
Xiao Lin was flattered, "What's wrong, wife? Do you want to go to bed and lie down for a while?"
