80, fool
After returning, Xu Hui tossed and turned all night, constantly reflecting on himself. Why did his hair-breasted wife who had been sleeping in the same bed for more than 20 years become like this? I thought about it all night but couldn't figure out what it was. Only the gray hair on his temples declared that he had not been asleep all night.
I thought that if Wanfeng passed it over to him, he could avoid facing Xu Shu, so he would not have to lie in front of Xu Shu to cover up Li's family. Unexpectedly, when Xu Hui came back from the yamen, Xu Shu was waiting in his study. As soon as he saw him, he said, "My father actually gave me Taohua Villa. Did he really give me?"
Xu Hui unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, when did my father deceive you? I gave it to you and it is yours!"
Xu Shu was full of joy, "That daughter wants to stay in the village for a few days in the future, it will be cheaper!"
Xu Hui's heart sank, "Okay, why do you think about living in the village!"
Xu Shu gradually felt sad on her happy face, "Since the fire there, my daughter's body has become too old. She has been seriously ill again this summer, and she has been uncomfortable since then. Recently, she has become more and more tired. She wants to take a good rest for a year and a half, but people come and go, so she can't have a time of purity..."
This summer is really uneasy! First, Xu Yuan was involved in Xu Shu, but later Xu Jing was miscarried, and Xu Shu forced herself to stand up for her sister. Now Xu Ru's marriage is happening. Xu Shu has no chance to recuperate even if she wants to rest!
Xu Hui nodded with distress, "Okay, although the village is hard, it is peaceful and comfortable, and it is most suitable for resting. When Sister Ru'er's marriage is settled, you have a thought, so go there and stay for a while!"
Xu Shu nodded and smiled again, "The father tried his best to give his daughter this manor, and he specially took a piece of land. Although the garden is more valuable, the father said yesterday. If the daughter feels that it is a loss, you can give her daughter another 3,000 taels of silver. Can you still count this?"
"Naturally count!" Xu Hui replied with a smile.
"That daughter feels that she is losing money, father should come with the money!" Xu Shu stretched out her hand, looking like a little wealthy person.
Seeing that Xu Shu was not suspicious of the lost land, Xu Hui was completely relieved and took the three thousand taels of silver notes prepared from the drawer beside him, "This is for you!"
Xu Shu took it and immediately put it in her arms, but the next second suddenly said seriously, "My father is so rich and generous, he must be keeping his own body behind his back. My daughter will tell her mother to take credit!"
Xu Hui was a little amused, but seeing that she was still as close to and trusted as ever when she heard Xu Shu’s words, she felt both sad and happy. What was happy was that Xu Shu, who didn’t know the truth, could continue to live carefreely like this. The sadness was what Li did, and she felt sorry for Xu Shu’s feelings for her.
Xu Hui listened to Xu Shu again while sighing, "But if the father gives his daughter another 100 taels of silver, his daughter will pretend that she doesn't know anything!"
Xu Hui stretched out his finger and pointed Xu Shu a few times across the air, and sighed, "You! You!"
Xu Shu said proudly, "If the father is reluctant to give up this hundred taels of silver, then the daughter will tell her mother and ask her for a reward of two hundred taels of silver. The mother will definitely give it to her!"
Looking at Xu Shu's face with anger and vitality, this is what a young girl in her prime should look like! But how long can such innocence last? Her beloved mother is not as glorious and selfless as she thought. Once the truth is revealed, the cruel reality will destroy all her smile. How long can she hide this matter?
"Father!" After not hearing Xu Hui's answer for a long time, Xu Shu couldn't help but raise her voice and shout, "Father can't bear to give up the silver daughter, but she really goes to tell her mother!"
"Give it, give it, give it!" Xu Hui smiled helplessly and shook his head, "I'll give you two hundred taels of custody fee!"
"Father is so generous!" Xu Shu never forgot to praise Xu Hui after receiving the silver notes.
Xu Hui waved his hand to chase her, "Go away, you will have all your private money for your father!"
Xu Shu didn't leave, and sniffed her nose and said, "Father, my daughter likes this frost mist and ink, so I'll give her two ingots!"
"I'm the only one left for my father. I'll buy you a new one!" Xu Hui looked at his house with some amusement and thought about what else could Xu Shu like, so I'll give it to her as soon as possible.
"That daughter is waiting!" Xu Shu agreed readily and then left satisfied.
"It's true that money can be bought to make you feel at ease!" Xu Shu held the stack of silver notes, but the smile on her face was as cold as snow.
"Miss..." Wanfeng bit his lip, and finally couldn't help it, "The master is really a rare good father..."
"I know! I always know... my father has always been very nice to me, whether it is before I was blind or after I was blind, because I was smart, and because I was pitiful after I was blind..." Xu Shu murmured, "But no matter how good it is, what's the use? He still hides everything from me. I am not only a blind man, but also a fool to continue to be her good daughter!"
Fool……
If she was a little stupid, she might not have so many worries!
"Madam is not worthy of your respect for her like this..." Wan Feng's deepest words were said in the end, as if he was afraid of being interrupted by Xu Shu. Wan Feng's tone was very quick, "Madam loves Master Seven more than anything. Miss, you can't even compare with Master Seven in your heart. Master Seven is reckless and irritable, but Madam never blames him for a word or a word. But Miss, you are so sensible and polite, and you always have any bad things to blame you! The last time Miss Eight's affairs had nothing to do with you, and the Madam could just leave it clear, but she still asked you to take the blame, and the marriage to Duke Rong's mansion. It was obviously your marriage, but Madam has been planning to let Miss Seven marry. You think about your wife everywhere, but Madam never thought about you. Is it worth it for you to do this?"
"Silly sweep the wind, whether it is worth it or not depends on the present, but on the future! I don't want me to be ruthless and unrighteous, and my relatives do not admit such accusation. No matter what they do, I will do what I should do! Before the age of fifteen, I was a member of the Xu family. I will do everything I can for the Xu family and repay the kindness of giving birth to me and raising me. After the age of fifteen, I hope I can be more comfortable in the rest of my life!"
"It turns out that the lady understands everything..."
"I would rather I understand nothing, so my heart won't hurt so much..."
Xu Shu is not a steel bar or a bronze bone. She will also feel pain when her flesh-made heart is trampled and betrayed. The toss and turns of pain has tormented again and again, year after year, and now she is numb. She is disappointed little by little, and she will eventually despair about this family...
