"I went back to Chenzhou Mansion to worship my ancestors. Our family is related to the Zhao family, so our ancestral graves are buried on the same mountain. I met them during the sacrifice..."
"Your ancestral home is Chenzhou Prefecture?" Su Li was very surprised.
"Yes!" Ye Xiyuan replied, "My ancestor was still a high official! But later on, my family fell into decline, and my mother took me back to my maternal home! But every year during the Qingming Festival, I would go back to my hometown to worship my ancestors! Zhao Zhu's wife, I My father is a relative of the clan, and I received kindness from my father in the past, so every time I go to worship my ancestors, I will stay temporarily at the Zhao family for a few days..."
"Then why have I never seen you?" Su Li frowned, "I've never heard the Zhaos mention you!"
"But I've heard about you!" Ye Xiyuan replied, "I know that the Zhao couple has a shady daughter who is not allowed to go home all day long. She eats and sleeps in the mountains. She is not allowed to show up when there are guests at home! What a shame. Raised like a wild cat and a wild dog!"
"How did you say that?" When Su Jinghan heard this, he felt unhappy and kicked him.
Ye Xiyuan hissed and begged for mercy: "These are Zhao Zhu's original words, not mine! I didn't say this to scold Miss Su, I just wanted to explain to her why we haven't met! Miss Su returned to Beijing It’s only been more than a year. Have you forgotten how you lived in the Zhao family before? Or is my memory wrong? "
"You remember correctly!" Su Li sighed, "I forgot these things on purpose!"
For Ye Xiyuan, it was more than a year ago, but for her, it was more than ten years ago.
The memories of childhood were too tragic, and Su Li didn't want to remember them every day.
However, after Ye Xiyuan reminded her, she remembered it.
He was right. At that time, she was indeed raised by the Zhao family like a wild cat and wild dog. She was not allowed to live at home since she was a child, and they drove her to live in a tree house on the mountain. She is not allowed to interact with her neighbors, and if outsiders come to the village, she is not allowed to show her face.
Therefore, even though she was a child raised by the Zhao family, many people in the village were not familiar with her. Only the neighbors of the Zhao family knew of her existence.
She didn't understand it at the time, but after learning the ins and outs, she understood the intentions of the Zhaos and his wife.
She looked too much like Su Ning. The older she got, the harder it was to hide her, so they had no choice but to drive her into the mountains and let her become a savage.
"What did they tell you about me?" Su Li asked.
Ye Xiyuan shook his head: "They never mentioned you in front of me. It was by chance that I learned about your existence from the neighbors. But even so, they kept silent until I returned to my hometown last year. At that time, You had just been brought back to the capital. When they saw me coming from the capital, they asked me around and asked around, and then I found out that the rumored incident of marrying the wrong daughter actually happened in their home!"
"Have they told you anything about this matter?" Madam Su missed her daughter so much. Even though she learned the tragic news of her daughter's death from Jiang Fei and fake Su Ning, she still couldn't help but want to ask more questions. A few words.
Ye Xiyuan saw her eagerness and rolled his eyes a few times. He wanted to act like a monster and negotiate terms, but Su Li woke him up in advance.
"We know as much as you do about the twists and turns in this, so you'd better not lie about it!"
"It's not about showing off..." Ye Xiyuan said with a shy face, "It's just that... I'm thirsty... After talking so much, I feel a little exhausted..."
He had just been holding on for a while in order to survive, and after talking so much, he really couldn't hold it anymore. Chinese website
Su Li glared at him, but she really wanted to get more information about her mother from him, so she gave in temporarily and ordered someone to bring a bowl of milk to Ye Xiyuan to drink. Then she took out a pill and fed it to Ye Xiyuan. in his mouth, making sure he had the strength to continue.
Seeing that he might know something, she fed Ye Ruo and Ye Yaye another bowl each.
Ye Xiyuan also knew that he knew very little and was not qualified to ask for more. After taking a short break, he continued.
"When they first asked me about the daughter of the Hou family, they didn't ask about your situation. Instead, they kept asking Marquis Jiangning and Madam Hou about their reaction after finding their daughter. When they asked, I felt There must be something fishy in it! A pair of countrymen
How can a wild couple have time to care about the affairs of the noble family? And he asked such detailed questions! "
"I didn't know Jiang Qingge at that time, so I couldn't answer them! They were so anxious that they asked if they could ask someone to inquire. Finally, they were tricked by me and finally admitted that it turned out that the real daughter of the Hou family was raised by them in the mountains. Their daughter! They abused their adopted daughter and were afraid of the Su government’s revenge, so they wanted to run away in advance!”
"What I heard became more and more strange, because they repeatedly mentioned that they were afraid of revenge from the Su family, but this daughter clearly belongs to the Hou family. If they want to take revenge, it should be the Hou family who comes to take revenge! When I asked a question, they gave the wrong answer. Ma Zui, maybe he was too scared later, or maybe he drank too much when he was depressed, so he told the truth..."
Mrs. Su's heart twitched when she heard this, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Do they know the origin of A Li? And do they know how A Li's mother died?"
"I know!" Ye Xiyuan nodded, "They said that at that time, the war was in turmoil and Mrs. Hou had fetal abnormalities, so she temporarily stayed at their home and gave them a lot of money. He said that although Jiang Fei and Mrs. Hou were husband and wife, they looked strange. There seemed to be a conflict, and they all slept in separate rooms. At that time, Jiang Fei was living in the ear room. In the middle of the night, he suddenly heard the two couples arguing. When he got up, he saw that there was a person in the courtyard who looked very similar to Mrs. Hou. !」
"It's fake Su Ning!" Su Li gritted his teeth, "So, it was Jiang Fei, the evil thief, who brought this woman to his mother!"
"To be precise, it was Mrs. Hou who broke up the affair between these two people!" Ye Xiyuan replied, "According to Zhao Zhu, when he came out, both Jiang Fei and the woman were disheveled, especially the woman, whose chest was exposed. A big piece, with a coquettish look, was caught by Madam Hou, but she didn’t panic at all, and kept tugging at Jiang Feila, just like that kiln girl!"
"What happened next?" Mrs. Su asked, "What happened to them?"
"Mrs. Hou was angry and beat Jiang Fei violently with a stick. She had already had fetal gas, and as soon as the gas moved, she soon became red. Seeing that she was about to give birth, she naturally had no time to worry about other things. Hou Madam Hou was accompanied by a midwife and maid. These people took good care of her, and the child was soon born. Early the next morning, Madam Hou was about to leave for Beijing. Jiang Fei kept blocking her, but could not stop her. , they got on the carriage and left the village, but one day later, the woman suddenly ran back sneakily with a child in her arms, saying that there had been a rebellion and her concubine and his concubine's wife were both dead. As long as this child is alive, ask them if they want to raise him!"
"She was the one who gave me to the Zhao couple?" Su Li was dumbfounded. "Why did she do this? Since they killed my mother, why didn't they kill me too?"
