New widow

"Then I'll go see her now." Suqiao said, standing up and walking towards the yard where Wan's family lived.

"I always feel that Mrs. Kuang is a person who keeps everything in her heart. She often smiles when she looks at her, but her smile never reaches her eyes." When Suqiao went there, Liu Lanhua said to Wan Auntie said softly, and Auntie Wan nodded: "That's not it. We can't say much. As for her, she is close to us, but she always keeps her worries to herself."

"I don't know when Madam Kuang will be able to express her thoughts." Liu Lanhua said softly. Aunt Wan thought about it and shook her head: "It's difficult, I think it's difficult. Hey, she is married to such a family, otherwise, a It’s not unusual for a woman to visit another family.”

"That's not possible. I see no man in this world is worthy of Madam Kuang." Liu Lanhua thought carefully about the men she had met and shook her head in opposition.

"That's true." Aunt Wan also thought about it carefully. The path that this ordinary woman should take is not the path that Su Qiao is willing to take. In this case, why should she think about letting her go to another family?

"Grandma." Suqiao lifted the curtain and walked into the house, where Mrs. Wan was talking to Wan'er. Seeing Suqiao come in, Mrs. Wan pushed Wan'er and said, "Why don't you stand up to greet your sister."

Wan'er sighed. Seeing Wan'er's dissatisfied look, Suqiao asked Mrs. Wan with a smile: "What's going on?"

"What else can you do? It's just that your uncle and aunt have discussed getting her engaged, but she is not happy here. Either she says they are not good enough for her, or they are too ugly. I think the child is pretty good, and she is pretty. , although I am not a scholar." After saying this, Old Mrs. Wan paused: "Besides, there is nothing good about being a scholar. But she is also honest and willing to work. If she gets married and takes over the family shop, she will have no worries about food and drink in her life."

Wan'er has reached out to cover her ears: "I won't listen. I won't listen."

"I can't persuade you about this." After Suqiao heard what Mrs. Wan said, she smiled at Wan'er. Wan'er lay on Suqiao's lap: "Cousin, you want me to be like..."

"Bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about here?" Old Mrs. Wan reached out and covered Wan'er's mouth. Wan'er's lips were already pursed: "Okay, I know I shouldn't say this. I'm just upset. Confused."

"Which girl is not upset before she gets married?" Old Mrs. Wan stroked her granddaughter's back: "When she gets married, she will be in a good family, and then she will be happy again, and there will be no need to think about those upset things again. ”

When you get married, you belong to a good family. The way parents in this world love their daughter is to find a good-looking family for their daughter, and then marry her to it. When the daughter has children, raises children, takes care of the housework, and the husband and wife are harmonious, the parents will feel , that’s it for this life.

Wan'er turned her head on Su Qiao's lap, her expression still a bit dissatisfied. Mrs. Wan originally wanted to say, how can you get rid of such a temper after getting married? But when the words came to her lips, Mrs. Wan swallowed them again. What's wrong with her children being more delicate at home?

"I met him today." Suqiao stroked Wan'er's hair and whispered to Mrs. Wan. Mrs. Wan thought for a moment and then remembered who Suqiao was talking about. Mrs. Wan couldn't help but sigh: "If your words spread, others will say you are unfilial."

"There is no truth in the world that only one should be filial to one's father but not one's mother." Su Qiao said lightly. Mrs. Wan was silenced by Su Qiao's words. After a while, she said: "If you really want to talk about these things, It's all our fault, it's us..."

"Grandma, don't just blame yourself. If he was a good person, he would have never thought of hiding it from the beginning." Mr. Kuang's concealment was just because he felt that his wife's background was too low to speak out in front of the teacher. But in this world, after a woman gets married, her status always follows her husband's. How can a husband have any reason to dislike his wife's low birth status?

Just like Yu Yulan's question, why did you marry her in the first place if you despised her low background? Master Kuang and Magistrate Chu were angry because they could not answer the question, but because they knew that such an idea was wrong.

"I'm old, and I won't think about these things anymore. Qiao'er, just do whatever you want to do." Mrs. Wan said to Su Qiao after a long time. Su Qiao hummed, and Wan'er looked up. Looking at Mrs. Wan: "Grandma said it as if there is nothing else you can do."

"You don't understand this." Suqiao held Wan'er's hand and said softly: "Grandma doesn't care about anything, she is the greatest help to us."

Yeah? Wan'er's eyes opened wide. Before Wan'er could ask anything else, the door curtain was lifted and Song Zhen and Zhou Le walked in.

Seeing Su Qiao, Song Zhen had already shouted happily: "I was in the house just now, and I seemed to hear you talking to Lanhua. I thought I heard wrongly, but when I came out to ask Sister Zhou, I realized that you were really back. Aunt Kuang, I haven’t seen you these days, I miss you so much.”

After saying that, Song Zhen stepped forward and hugged Su Qiao's neck, looking attached to her. Su Qiao couldn't help but patted her hand: "Why haven't we seen each other for a few days? You are sweeter than before."

"I've always been good at talking." Song Zhen said with a smile, and Zhou Le also smiled: "I'm thinking about you, and although I know nothing will happen, I can't let go until I see someone. "

Suqiao looked at the smiling faces in front of her and smiled: "Okay, I know you are all thinking about me, so I will be back soon."

The room was suddenly full of laughter and joy, and Wan'er's worries were thrown out of the sky. She and Song Zhen faced each other and began to whisper again.

Zhou Le had already said to Su Qiao: "If..."

"You have to ask Mr. Ge to come forward." Su Qiao knew what Zhou Le was going to say, so she just smiled and refused.

"I just want to use my father's guilt for me." Zhou Le said very straightforwardly, wanting to use his father's guilt.

"Your father's guilt is not much. You should make good use of it instead of using it on me now." Su Qiao patted Zhou Le's hand and made good use of it. These four words made Zhou Le want to laugh. But Zhou Le didn't laugh. He just sighed. Things in this world felt a bit ridiculous.

"You see, there aren't so many rules in my uncle's house, and he doesn't have any rules for the children..." Suqiao still didn't say the word "calculation". Wan Dequan's love for Wan'er was real. What Zhou Le could see, Zhou Le could also see, was what Zhou Le longed for but never got, his father's wholehearted love for his child.
