Hanako was immersed in the sadness of the memory of her son's death. For a moment, she didn't realize that Ling Xiao had the idea of deliberately torturing her. Even if she did, there was nothing she could do because this mysterious man controlled the entire residence and no one could save her.
Looking at Hanako who was in sorrow, Ling Xiao waited for a while and coughed on purpose. Finally, Hanako raised his eyes and glanced at Ling Xiao standing opposite, and then remembered that there was an outsider, and this person should know his son.
situation, so she asked this question, "How is my son?" She still had some hope in her heart.
"Let's rest in peace!" Ling Xiao said. Although he did not enter the Lin family's ancestral grave, it was not far from the ancestral grave. The Lin family would clean up the small grave bags when they went back to sweep the tomb. But he didn't know that after the Lin family knew the truth of the matter,
What will be the attitude?
"That's good!" Hanako murmured. She was sad, but she really didn't have deep feelings for that son. After all, she later had a caring daughter, and this was the child she really liked.
Emotions are sacrifices from both sides, so Hanako didn't have much affection for her son who died in infancy. Before she could establish a deeper relationship, the child died. Therefore, she felt guilty and compensated for her son, but she just didn't have much maternal love. She was immersed in
In her grief, she didn't bother Ling Xiao to ask more questions about her son.
Ugh! Ling Xiao couldn't help but shake her head. She had read a novel before about the real and fake daughter. Her parents were so focused on the fake daughter that they didn't like their own daughter. No matter how she read it, she felt that Hanako belonged to this category.
My parents, from the bottom of their hearts, valued Etsuko too much and were very indifferent to their son.
Forget it, this is Hanako's own business. Ling Xiao thought of this and said: "Actually, I am here this time to take her back to her homeland. Before I leave, I came to see you for her. You have raised her anyway."
Sixteen years."
"What?" Hanako almost jumped up when she heard this. She couldn't imagine that Ling Xiao would want to take her daughter away. How could this be possible? Thinking of this, she shouted anxiously, "I don't agree. Etsuko stays here and stays well.
, why go to that barren and uneducated place? It’s a disgusting place.”
"Disgusting? I think the most disgusting person is you, isn't it? You steal other people's children! You are just a thief, depriving children of the love of their parents. Who do you think you are! Barren? Uncultured? Ha! It's really funny.
, I have lived in Greater China for five thousand years, how long is the history of your island country? The clothes you are wearing now, even the makeup, and the writing are all imitated by my Kyushu, and the calligraphy, painting, etc. are all from my Kyushu professor, do you want to go?
Find out what does it mean to send an envoy to Tang Dynasty to talk again?" Ling Xiao sneered and directly turned on the taunting mode.
Hanako's face turned red all of a sudden. She didn't know it before, but Etsuko liked Kyushu culture very much, so she followed and learned some, so she knew this knowledge. However, she was used to the superior status of the islanders, and there was always a sense of comparison.
The noble idea of Kyushu people was pointed out by Ling Xiao that the culture of the island country was greatly influenced by Kyushu. Ling Xiao's whole body became cold and Hanako was a little scared for a while.
"Also, you said Etsuko stayed here well, haha! Who said Etsuko was well? Let me tell you, Etsuko committed suicide by jumping off a building when she was sixteen years old, and she has been dead for several years." Ling Xiao sneered and told the truth.
, after saying that, she turned around and walked away, because she didn't want to be in the same space as Hanako. If she didn't have the correct three views, she would have wanted to give Hanako a good beating, even if she was old and frail.
"What?" After Hanako heard Ling Xiao's words, she felt as if someone had hit her in the head. Her whole body was dizzy. She kept mumbling, "What? Impossible? Etsuko can't be dead!"
Hanako was absolutely unwilling to accept this reality. In her heart, she felt that Etsuko must have married into a good family and lived a good life. How could she die? And she died before her, at the age of sixteen? Isn't this the time when Hanako was assigned?
?
At this moment, Hanako would never accept this reality. She had just said that her daughter would live a good life, but in the blink of an eye she found that her daughter had died a long time ago. Naturally, she was unwilling to admit that this was true.
Thinking of this, she didn't bother to put on her shoes, so she chased him out wearing socks, "Wait! What you said must not be true." At this moment, she felt that Ling Xiao had lied to her specifically to attack her, but she still wanted to let Ling Xiao
Xiao admitted this fact.
"." Ling Xiao was a little speechless and didn't want to continue talking at all. He also understood the situation of Hanako's self-deception. The reason why he didn't take action against Hanako was because he saw that Hanako's body was close to being exhausted and he didn't have much time to live.
.
Hanako just wanted to get the news she wanted from Ling Xiao, so she scolded: "You are really bad. When I find someone to arrest you, will you still dare to cause trouble in the future? A Kyushu
People who come to the island country must have some agenda."
After hearing her words, Ling Xiao turned around and looked at Hanako with a sneer, saying that people from Kyushu came to the island country for a purpose, and it was natural for the people from the island country to come to Kyushu to be domineering, haha! No wonder the polls of the island country in later generations were still right.
Kyushu is mostly negative.
"Haha! It's true: good words can't persuade a dying ghost, and mercy can't save a person who has died. Hanako, you can't live long, why should I lie to you? You should know who the men of the Endo family are, each one.
They’re all just shit. Since you think you can let Etsuko go with those shit, are you really deceiving yourself? Or are you really stupid? After my friend came into contact with Taro, I knew that he had bad intentions for Etsuko!"
Hanako's eyes widened. She didn't dare to grab the other person's hand at this moment, because Ling Xiao's words hit her weak point. Although she didn't fully know what her husband, the head of the family, had done, she still knew very well what the other party cared about.
Interest, as for the stepson's peek at Etsuko, is also a hidden worry in Hanako's heart. She only hopes that the head of the family is still thinking of buying Etsuko for a big price, which will stop the stepson's actions.
But now that Ling Xiao exposed her, Hanako realized that Etsuko was really in danger, but she couldn't do anything to help her. She really felt distressed and almost couldn't breathe, but she still struggled hard.
Said: "What are you talking nonsense? Taro is just a brother and sister who have a close relationship. He definitely doesn't have any bad thoughts towards Etsuko."
"Ha! You're just a tough talker and you're still struggling? Then let me ask you: Why did Taro go to the New World and meet someone who looks the same as Etsuko, and then he tried every means to get the person to his side and make my friend his?
Forbidden love? What he thinks about Etsuko is not like a brother-sister relationship at all."
When Hanako heard this, she looked very ugly at the moment. She held on to things around her tightly to keep herself from falling. When she found out what her stepson was thinking, she was so frightened that she quickly moved away from Etsuko. She stared at her stepson everywhere to prevent Etsuko from letting him down.
It would be hard to say what kind of harassment she was receiving if she was gone.
"Don't try to fool me. It was precisely because I knew Etsuko was dead that I went to the island country to find out the truth. Anyway, I want to take her back to my hometown." Ling Xiao said, and she was ready to leave after saying this coldly.
"Wait!" Hanako breathed heavily. At this moment, she had to believe this: Etsuko was dead, and the most lovely and well-behaved daughter in her heart had long since died. "How did Etsuko die?"
"For his own benefit, the head of the Endo family asked Etsuko, who was only 16 years old, to sleep with an old man who was almost 60 years old. He completely regarded Etsuko as a prostitute. Etsuko didn't want to, but that bitch actually forced her to go. In the end
Etsuko had to commit suicide by jumping off the building."
"Why did you jump off the building? Didn't you just endure it and let it pass?" Hanako murmured to herself. She actually understood the matter very well. Some old men like to take a bite of fresh food, as long as they stand high enough to give it to the woman.
If the family's interests are sufficient, they can play with girls from aristocratic families. Etsuko is not the first, and she is definitely not the last. She cannot understand Etsuko's thoughts. In her opinion, living is the most important thing, and everything else is tolerable.
Didn’t she also survive?
Etsuko obviously didn't think so. After Hanako expressed her choice, Ling Xiao finally understood Etsuko's pain. She once wrote in her notebook: She is very lonely and out of tune with other people. What she values is not valued by others.
Including but not limited to my own mother.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but sneered and said: "What don't you understand? In Etsuko's view: I am a living person, and you have to have something to insist on when you are alive. That is the final bottom line. If you touch your bottom line, you would rather die.
, and will not give in!"
Hanako's body collapsed and her tears rolled down again, "Etsuko! You are so stupid!" Her crying at this moment had no manners. She was just a mother crying for her daughter. Even though she and she knew each other differently,
She really loves Etsuko.
"Etsuko is not stupid. She has her own bottom line and is a normal person. That's why she is incompatible with you islanders. Someone always has to pay the price." The last sentence was spoken very softly and quickly disappeared in the air.
Wan Lingxiao left here.
Hanako, on the other hand, had no intention of chasing Ling Xiao again. She had no strength to stand up and just cried. In the end, her whole body no longer breathed and her body stopped moving.
Besides, the original owner got the news about his biological sister from Ling Xiao. She should have died a long time ago, and their family didn't know it at all, so they found a place to burn paper for their sister far away. The sixteen-year-old sister just withered in the world.
It's a foreign country. The hateful thing is that if Ling Xiao hadn't volunteered to find out the truth, there would have been no place to find out about her sister's death.
Later, when Ling Xiao was preparing to go to the island country to find out the truth, the original owner called her parents and said that one of her friends would come to find them. At that time, her parents should entertain the guests well and also asked them to pay attention to accepting her letters. She wrote
A lot of stuff is on it.
The parents of the Lin family were very happy when they heard this, and they agreed to their daughter's request. On this day, Father Lin received an express letter from his daughter from the New World. Father Lin felt a little strange because this letter was an expedited letter and required extra money.
Father Lin thought that something was wrong with his daughter so he would use express mail, so he deliberately wanted to open it, but found that it was written as a private message and asked him to read it at home instead of at work. Father Lin felt that it was
That’s right, my daughter won’t let me watch it at work, so let’s watch it at home!
Father Lin hurried home after get off work. His wife had already cooked and was waiting for him to come home. The two of them had dinner together, washed the dishes together, and made tea before getting ready to sit down. Father Lin remembered his daughter’s letter. , he happily took it out to show to his wife.
The two are considered an old couple, and they no longer have the sweetness and impulsiveness of their youth. Their relationship is closer to family affection. Although it is not strong at all, it is very stable.
