The old lady is reborn

Yao Siyuan didn't expect that he would have to go to Lu Xiaolan's house again, which made him a little annoyed. His wife had a bad relationship with Lu Xiaolan, and Lu Xiaolan even claimed that she had severed ties with the Lu family.

If you pretend to be a stranger to deliver something, and if you are recognized one day, it will seem like you are hiding something and will cause criticism.

If I go to her house, I will have to reveal my rather embarrassing identity, which will be very abrupt. If she gets angry and chases me away, I'm afraid she will complain if she finds out, and both sides will be upset.

On the way, he said to Gong Yuanliang: "You go and send me off when the time comes. I'll wait for you outside."

Gong Yuanliang didn't care. According to the address given by Dazhu's wife, the two of them went to Lu Xiaolan's home when they passed by Yancheng.

Gong Yuanliang was knocking on the door outside. Yao Siyuan stepped back and waited for him, ready to leave as soon as he handed over the things.

But after knocking for a long time no one answered, the two had to go back, but they ran into a large family who had just returned.

A couple, the man, even though he is middle-aged, still has outstanding good looks and can be seen at a glance in a group of people; the woman smiles gently but shows a bit of competence;

There were six young people, three boys and three girls, and two young women with women's hair. I heard there were four children, so two of them must have been married.

The crowd surrounded an old lady who was smiling and in good spirits.

The two sides happened to meet and saw each other. Yao Siyuan had no choice but to listen to Gong Yuanliang explain his purpose to them, and then followed them into the house without being able to refuse the hospitality.

According to Lu Yiyi's description, Lu Xiaolan is a person of average appearance but fickle nature.

Because she was jealous of her sister who made the whole family restless all day long, was lazy and gluttonous, slandered and spread rumors, and had a bad relationship with the whole family, she ran away from home and did not return for 20 years. She was unfilial and unrighteous, and was almost useless.

Therefore, Yao Siyuan instinctively felt disgust and aversion towards Lu Xiaolan.

The aura between people is very subtle. If there are many people at the beginning, you may not feel it. But when the old people and children go back to the house and only the couple are left to entertain the guests, Lu Xiaolan clearly feels Yao Siyuan's disgust and resistance towards her, although it is hidden under politeness and calmness.

Lu Xiaolan was puzzled. Why did this person have such strong malice towards her when they first met?

But Lu Xiaolan didn't care. When she married Huanqing, she would be the stepmother of two children, and those two children hated her.

One of them was straightforward and openly bullied her, and the other was a little cunning and obviously disliked her, but didn't show it on his face. These two children grew up in such a family and had a lot of bad habits.

Lu Xiaolan thought about this. Her family didn't have a fortune, nor did she have a title to inherit. Even if someone didn't like her, it would be difficult for her to like them.

But what good would it do to myself if I raised them to be useless? They would only be a burden. What good would it do to myself if I raised them to be enemies? They were younger than me after all.

Once they become enemies, they will have to fight to the death. Unless you want to kill them, am I the kind of person who can do this to two children? Ask yourself, you definitely can't do this.

I will have children too, so I can put myself in their shoes. My own children will be younger than these two anyway.

Xiaolan admits that she is not as good a person as her sister-in-law, so she still has to consider herself.

If they don’t like me, just let them be, but I still have to do what I should do first. After all, I am an adult and their nominal mother.

From then on, she would beat and scold the two children and correct their bad habits. But she never skimped on their food, clothing, housing and transportation, and she would still take good care of them when they were sick.

When they were bullied outside, she would go out with a stick to seek justice. She didn't think about what she would gain, but in the end, she seemed to have gained a lot.

Xiaolan sometimes felt embarrassed. When she first did those things, she had carefully planned them for herself. She had no family behind her, so she had to think carefully about every step she took alone.

But the deviation of the orbit is always like this. Even if the initial angle is very small, it will eventually go very far.

Once she started investing in these two children, she inevitably put a lot of her heart into it.

Now looking at these two tall children, she often feels fortunate that she had made such a plan.

She was also secretly thankful that the biological mother of the two children and that family never came to look for them again. After she had given her true heart to them, she had been afraid of losing them countless times.

Later, the two children saw something and said to her, "Mom, the grace of giving birth to you is not as great as the grace of raising you. Relax, you are our mother."

She felt relieved when she heard that, and couldn't help showing some relief on her face, but when she looked up, she saw her husband celebrating and looking at her with laughter, and he couldn't stop smiling.

Lu Xiaolan suddenly felt a little angry that her thoughts were seen through, and was about to say a few polite words to cover it up.

The thoughtful kid seemed to know what she was going to say: "Mom, if you are being polite now, we can't just ignore you. If we do that, it will be twice as unfilial. Think carefully."

This brat, think about it yourself and decide not to say anything.

The celebration could no longer be stopped; the loud laughter was accompanied by the joyful chatter of her two children hugging her, and her own two babies also desperately clinging to her arms.

Thinking back to the past and looking at the present, Lu Xiaolan's lips and eyebrows were filled with a smile and tenderness.

After delivering the entrusted items, Gong Yuanliang felt that although Huan Qing was a grain official, he was still an official on official business, so he asked him about the transportation of gold.

Huanqing had never heard of this, but he thought that building the road was a good thing. When they were transporting grain, many sections of the road were really difficult to travel on.

He also asked Gong Yuanliang where he heard the news.

Gong Yuanliang didn't think much about it, and just said that the news had spread in his hometown. Of course, he didn't mention that the two of them were involved in the matter, and just treated it as a casual chat.

Lu Xiaolan, who had just come back to her senses, suddenly understood why this person from her hometown, whose surname was Yao, was so hostile to her, and she had a rough guess in her mind.

When it was time to get up and see the guests off, Huanqing was about to see the two of them out. Lu Xiaolan took out some boiled eggs and made some steamed rice cakes for them to take away.

He said to Huan Qing: "I'll send them out. After all, they are from my hometown."

When they got outside, Lu Xiaolan handed the food to Gong Yuanliang first, and then suddenly asked, "Is Brother Yao's wife named Lu Yiyi?"

The two were stunned at first, but when they saw that the truth had been revealed, they both nodded.

Yao Siyuan subconsciously stood a little further away from Lu Xiaolan, and even when Gong Yuanliang turned around to hand him a bag of food, he turned his hand away calmly. The corners of his eyes and eyebrows fell into a inch of light and shadow, and then flew out diagonally with an expression.

Gong Yuanliang was stunned, then he took the two bags of food steadily. As brothers for many years, he had already noticed Yao Siyuan's displeasure, but he didn't expect that he couldn't hide it after just sitting for a while?

Or since her husband is not around, she doesn't even bother to hide her ill intentions.

In order to cover up the embarrassment, Gong Yuanliang smiled and said, "It's still early today, we plan to take this opportunity to hire a carriage that can travel long distances. Or we can catch a caravan in Yancheng."

When Lu Xiaolan saw what had just happened, she thought to herself: As expected, Lu Yiyi has been slandering her everywhere for more than a decade. People who have never met her can be so hostile and contemptuous of her.

He nodded to Gong Yuanliang and said, "Be careful on your long journey, as people's hearts and words are always unpredictable.

Since you want to hire a carriage, I'll take you to the mule and horse market. There's a street full of carriage shops, and there are also many caravans exchanging carriages and horses there."

Along the way, he asked Gong Yuanliang again: "Is Dazhu's wife okay? How is she doing now? Is her leg better?"

Gong Yuanliang felt that Yao Siyuan was not willing to continue this topic, as if he would criticize Lu Yiyi if he continued this topic, so after answering, he quickly changed the subject: "You all came back with a smile on your face just now, is there any good news?"

Lu Xiaolan said, "My husband took his sons to see their former husband. My mother-in-law, I, my daughter-in-law and my wife went to see the play together... It's really an interesting play, but the good guys in this play don't get rewarded, the bad guys succeed, and in the end, we can only rely on God to deal with it."

Gong Yuanliang became interested: "What play? What's it about?"

"From the perspective of a man, he and his wife have been a loving couple for many years. He is happy with his wife and naturally shares her likes and dislikes. He loves her and hates her too.

His wife had a long-time rival who had always been jealous of his wife.

Then the next few scenes of the play are all about his wife telling him about the evil deeds and words of that woman, and about the woman he saw bullying his wife.

Not to mention him, even we who were watching the show were so angry that our teeth were itching. That woman was so mean!

The man finally lost his temper for the woman he loved and killed the evil woman to protect his kind and weak wife.

But he himself was sentenced to death and was executed. We, the audience, thought it was great that he killed the evil woman, but it was a pity that he lost his own life.

Who would have thought that the scene would turn to the underworld, and it would be him who would be punished in hell. The wicked woman, who had died unjustly, could be reborn into a good life early.

The man refused to accept it, so the underworld used the magic weapon Broken Yang Mirror to trace back his life. Surprisingly, every complete event was seen from a different perspective. It was all because of his kind-hearted wife who was vicious and cruel, and who framed him in various ways, and he, who seemed to be so righteous, was actually a stupid and bad accomplice.

He was also heartbroken that he would be lonely and helpless from then on, and he missed his wife all the time. On the day of his death, he collected the body during the day, wearing mourning clothes and crying bitterly, which made everyone feel sympathetic.

At night, he took off his white robe and fooled around with the husband of the wrongfully dead woman. When the curtain was drawn on the stage, a big red bellyband was thrown out.

It turned out that his wife had been in love with the husband of the wrongfully dead woman many years ago, and they had an affair when they met again later. His wife wanted to be with the adulterer.

But the adulterer could have an affair with her, but he didn't want to be separated from his wife, so the woman came up with a way to kill two birds with one stone.

Kill with a borrowed knife, let the husband kill the adulterer's wife, and then they can be together.

It's a pity that the woman who died in vain realized something was wrong and investigated the matter, but she was killed by this stupid and evil man. "

Gong Yuanliang sighed after hearing this: "This is such an unexpectedly good show."

But he didn't notice that Yao Siyuan's expression had changed.
