After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute
Chapter 216 An Ran ran away from home (latest)
The next day, Mrs. Qi brought several daughters-in-law to the Su family. There was no particularly happy look on her face, and even her smile was faintly distant.
Qi Yuechan was deeply afraid that her own mother would be disrespectful in front of Su's father and mother, so she was happy and nervous throughout the whole process.
Su's mother was very frightened and felt uneasy and cautious when facing them.
After a cup of tea, their relationship progressed by leaps and bounds. When they left, they even made an appointment to have tea together next time. It was completely different from when they first came.
Qi Yuechan sent her family out, and Madam Qi taught them earnestly, "Your mother-in-law's personality is not like other country people, and she is not as annoying as your grandmother. Your second sister-in-law is also easy to get along with. I will rest assured that the family will live in harmony in the future."
Qi Yuechan also liked the Su family from the bottom of her heart. No one in the Su family had a concubine, and her husband also promised that he would never do so in his lifetime.
Her parents-in-law are kind, her sisters-in-law get along well with her, and her husband is considerate. She feels that this is worth her life.
After resting for two days, Su Yi went to the palace to report. It was also on this day that he learned from the emperor that his daughter was almost bullied.
After hearing the whole story, Su Yi almost turned his face black in front of the emperor.
The emperor comforted him at the right time, "Don't worry, my dear, those lunatics have been brought to justice, and it can be regarded as revenge for An Ran."
Su Yi bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of my daughter."
The emperor explained, "This matter has nothing to do with me. It was your boy who reported it himself. The Ministry of Justice only found out it was yours when it accepted the case."
"That's what we talked about when we entered the palace that day."
"Why, didn't your girl or boy tell you when they went back?"
This sentence hurt Su Yi the most. No wonder his son punished his daughter by making her stand when they got home that day. It turned out it was because of this.
This suddenly poured a bucket of cold water on his heart, as he originally thought he was closer to his child. He handled such a serious problem as being bullied by himself, so what was the point of him being a father?
The emperor had also heard that Su Yi's son was not close to him, and he knew that the man was probably sad now.
Changing the subject, he said, "My dear minister, you should go back and have a good rest for a few days. I will see which positions are vacant in the court and then make a decision."
Su Yi returned home exhausted, and his daughter's sweet call made him completely exhausted.
Feeling very upset, he went to Liu Huan and told him about this matter. Liu Huan thought it was no big deal.
"I thought something had happened, but this is it?"
When Su Yi heard this, he felt that his wife knew everything but kept it from him, which meant that she didn't consider him as a support at all, so he asked cautiously: "You know too?"
Liu Huan spread his hands, "I don't know?"
After knowing what made her husband sad, she began to comfort him earnestly, "It's normal for children to have their own little secrets when they grow up. As long as they can decide for themselves, what does it matter if they don't tell us?"
She held Su Yi's face and looked into his eyes and said word by word: "They will eventually fly away, but I won't. I will always stay by your side, for the rest of my life."
Liu Huan's words soothed Su Yi's heart and gave rise to the best sigh of admiration for his wonderful wife.
He couldn't help but hold her waist and whisper, "Madam, let's have another child?"
Liu Huan pushed him out, "Do you want me to return the pearl to you?"
Su Yi smiled flatteringly, "Madam is so beautiful, how can you say that you are a pig?"
Liu Huan held his head again and said seriously: "Don't think about other stones, you and me. I will never leave you. Don't be sad and don't think about other things."
Ever since Liu Huan learned about Su Yi's secret a few years ago, he has been trying to help him get out of the illusion.
That was the time during the epidemic when Su Yi thought he saw Liu Huan waking up and then said he knew nothing.
Later, it happened many times. Every time after Su Yi fell asleep, he would get up and sit on the bed, talking to himself, all the time. He was talking about his conversation with Liu Huan.
Liu Huan found Changbai to find out the situation, only to find out that he had been in this condition for several years, and no one else knew about it except him and Changyun.
After Liu Huan found out about this, he did not tell the Su family, including Su's father and mother.
It was only through silent observation and unintentional guidance, telling him that he was always by his side, that Su Yi's symptoms gradually improved over the years.
She didn't want Su Yi to be hurt again because of the child. Her son was very sensible, but this was a hurdle for him and he just couldn't get over it. Liu Huan didn't know how to persuade him.
She can only leave this matter to time, she believes her son will figure it out.
Su Yi buried his head and sobbed, "I just want to make it up to them, I think they need me, but I can't do it well."
Liu Huan smiled and said, "I need you. Just make it up to me."
After talking about this matter, Su Yi felt better and stopped worrying about the child.
He called the two of them over and asked, "Do you want to go to the Imperial College to study or find a teacher to teach you at home?"
An Zhi pursed his lips and said, "I'm going to the Imperial College."
Since An Zhidu was going, An Ran would naturally go as well. Su Yi happily went to the Ministry of Rites to ask for two admission places. He felt that he could finally do something for his son and daughter.
The result was that he was happy too early, and his daughter passed away before she even started school.
"Have you found it?"
"Master, Miss, I'm afraid there are accomplices, and they have disappeared long ago."
Su Yi fell into the chair, his eyes turned red unconsciously as he looked at the immature letter in his hand.
Today was supposed to be the day he took office as the Minister of Dali Temple. He got up and prepared to have breakfast with his child and send her to the Imperial College, but he didn't expect his daughter was not in the room.
There was only a letter left on the table, which said that she had gone to Xuanzhen Sect to learn martial arts and would be back in five years.
Even Liu Huan, who had always insisted on giving children freedom, was very angry with her action. The Su family was in an uproar. Su Yi no longer had the heart to take up his post, and everyone went out to try to intercept the person back.
But it's useless, the person has already run away.
Su's mother, in particular, fainted from anger when she heard that her child had not returned. She was already in poor health and if she had not asked the emperor to come to the strict court for sentencing, she would have died that day.
The first thing he did when he woke up was to ask someone to look for the child. "She is still so young. What will we do if something happens to two little girls when they are out?"
While Liu Huan was angry, he also had to comfort the elderly at home. Looking at his son who was fine next to him, he felt that this matter was not unrelated to him.
He called the person into the room alone and shouted at him, "Kneel down!"
An Zhi knelt upright in front of her. Liu Huan couldn't help wanting to cry when she saw her son's look.
"Why didn't you discuss such an important matter with us? Do you think mother and father are useless and no longer needed?"
An Zhi raised his head fiercely, "Mother..."
"Do you want to leave too? Do you want to go out into the world on your own without even saying goodbye or leaving a letter?" Liu Huan interrupted him hastily, accusing his son in a crying voice.
An Zhi hurriedly explained: "Mom, I won't leave you, but An Ran..."
He was speechless halfway through. Liu Huan stared at him, "Tell me, what does she want to do?"
An Zhi had never seen Liu Huansheng so angry before. He lowered his head and whispered, "An Ran has always wanted to be a chivalrous woman since she was a child. She longs for the outside world. As a brother, how could I not help her?"
"Mom, I don't want her to be trapped in the capital for the rest of her life, nor do I want her to find a famous family and be trapped in the backyard. I want her to be free. Even if it can't be changed in the future, at least she is free for the next few years."
Su Yi, who was about to come in from outside, stopped. He was stunned when he heard his son's words. The anger in his heart turned into powerlessness at this moment.
Liu Huan inside became even more agitated after hearing these words, "How can you be sure that your parents would push her into the abyss, Su Anzhi! Could it be that in your eyes, your parents are so shallow, evil people who sacrifice their children for the sake of power and wealth?"
An Zhi knelt on the ground and shook his head desperately, "Mom, no, mom, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, my son knows I was wrong."
Liu Huan shook her head in disappointment and turned away so that he wouldn't see her tears. "You don't know, you don't know where you went wrong. Go back. I'm tired."
An Zhi walked out with red eyes, and quickly lowered her head when she met Su Yi's eyes.
Before Su Yi closed the door, he saw his son, who usually ignored others, walk to the middle of the yard and kneel down, letting the scorching sun shine on him.
"Going back?" Liu Huan asked with a sniffle.
Su Yi pulled her to sit down, "No, I'm kneeling outside."
Liu Huan felt much better. "He still has some conscience. Otherwise, I would have given birth to an ungrateful person after ten months of pregnancy and almost lost my life."
Su Yi responded to her with a long silence.
Su Yi didn't answer Liu Huan and silently told him what was in his heart, "Although I always comfort you, I am also afraid that the child really doesn't need me anymore."
"Anzhi is just too precocious, he seems to understand everything, but he doesn't really know anything. What's more, he feels insecure about the Su family."
An Zhi still felt that Su Yi had abandoned them and had zero trust in the Su family. He also heard from somewhere that women were used as bargaining chips by big families for marriage alliances, so he wanted to make plans for his sister early.
Su Yi said: "I'll go talk to him."
Liu Huan held him back, "Don't go yet. Let him kneel down. He was wrong this time. Let him reflect on what he did wrong first."
When Su's mother heard about it, she had her grandson supported to the main courtyard despite the fact that she was still recovering. She was heartbroken to see her grandson kneeling in the sun.
"Anzhi, what's wrong? Hurry up and get up. Why are you kneeling in the sun?"
An Zhi turned aside and said, "I'm fine."
Su's mother was extremely anxious, "How come you are fine? Did your parents tell you to kneel? Su Yi and Liu Huan, come out here."
The two people in the room looked at each other, then got up and walked out one after the other.
Mother Su walked up to the two and began to lecture them, "Tell me, did I ever punish you to kneel when you were little?"
Of course not.
"So what are you doing now? I know you are very anxious that An Ran is gone, but why are you taking your anger out on your child? You are a parent and you blame the brother for not taking good care of your child. How can you be a parent like that?"
Mother Su couldn't help wiping away tears as she spoke. "My two grandchildren are so obedient and sensible. They must be unhappy with their family. Otherwise, why would they want to leave?"
The Li family's departure cast a shadow on the Su family, especially when Liu Huan left without saying goodbye, which was a huge blow to the Su family.
Liu Huan and the other man hurriedly supported him, "Mom, we didn't make him kneel, and it will take a while to explain. You're not well yet, I'll take you back first."
Su's mother sat down beside him and said, "I won't leave. If An Zhi can't get up, I will stay here with him."
When educating children, the most fearful thing is to encounter parents who dote on their children. Liu Huan could only pause and said, "You get up first."
An Zhi obediently stood up and helped Su's mother out, "Grandma, I'll take you back."
When he came back and was about to kneel, the maid passed on the message, "Master and Madam want you to come in."
"mother"
Liu Huan asked his son to sit next to him and asked earnestly, "Son, do you really dislike being in the Su family so much?"
Anzhi was very confused and didn't know why his mother asked this.
"Let me tell you about me and the Su family. I actually have two memories..."
The two chatted until late at night without anyone interrupting them, and no one even knew what they were talking about.
"It's too late, you should go back first."
After An Zhi left, he saw that the study next door was brightly lit. After hesitating for a moment, he knocked on the door tentatively.
"Enter"
The voices of the people inside were not as warm as those of the previous days, but rather terrifyingly cold and silent.
The moment he pushed the door open, he could see the person inside frowning in displeasure, who hurriedly relaxed when he saw him.
He put down the letter in his hand, stood up and asked with an effort: "Why are you here?"
"Father, I have something to talk to you about."
Su Yi was so excited that he didn't know where to put his hands. "Sit down."
After the two talked, the whole night passed.
Because Su Yi did not go to the palace to plead guilty for not taking up his post, the emperor laughed at him, "My dear minister, you are resourceful, but I didn't expect you would be defeated by a pair of children."
Su Yi sighed helplessly, "I really don't have any idea what to do with these two kids."
The emperor laughed for a long time before saying, "Only when you are a parent do you realize the grace of raising a child. You are not the only one who is suffering."
"Your Majesty, Young Master Rong is here."
"Proclaim"
Someone came and their conversation was interrupted. Su Yi was about to get up and leave, but the emperor kept him.
"Ah, it's Jingchen, you don't have to avoid him. He has grown a lot taller since I last saw him in the past few years. It's a good opportunity for you to meet him too."
Su Yi couldn't refuse, so he could only stand aside and watch the boy enter.
At the age of fourteen or fifteen, he was already seven feet tall, looking mature despite his young age. He was also good-looking, having perfectly inherited the good qualities of Prince Rong and Princess Rong.
He stood up and saluted the young man, who quickly lowered his body and said back, "Master Su."
The emperor also advised: "You held Jingchen in your arms when he was a child, why are you so polite now that he has grown up?"
Su Yi clasped his fists towards the emperor again, "Your Majesty, etiquette cannot be abolished."
"Yes, yes, you two brothers are of the same character. Okay, you can go down first. Just remember to go to the Dali Temple tomorrow."
After Su Yi left, the emperor looked at the boy jokingly, "Why, did you quarrel with your father again?"
The young man didn't say anything and the emperor didn't get angry. "Alright, I just asked you to come here to ask about the prince's studies. Why are you so tense? Relax a little."
Ten days after An Ran left, An Zhi also left.
However, this time the Su family allowed him to leave, and Su's mother even wanted to let him take all their belongings with him.
"It's always a good idea to bring more money with you when you go out. Your parents are really cruel, letting you and your brother go out so far at such a young age."
At the end, Su's mother only said one sentence, "Don't forget to bring letters back wherever you go. Your grandfather and I don't have many years left."
