Chapter 806 Li Wenxin's Malice
Chapter 806 Li Wenxin's Malice
Under the old man's earnest gaze, Ye Rou hesitated for a moment, but still chose to tell the truth.
"My mother has passed away."
The words were spoken hesitantly and slowly.
The tears hanging on the edge of the eye socket fell, hit the ground with a "pa" sound, and shattered into pieces.
Ruan Tingwen shook his head hastily and said repeatedly: "Impossible."
Ye Rou looked sad and lowered her eyes.
She grabbed Ye Rou's wrist, her eyes shaky: "Why? Why!"
She was so sad that her facial features became particularly hideous.
Nan Nan was so scared that she hid behind her brother, leaving only her eyes exposed.
The monkey protected his sister and kept a close eye on the old woman, ready to rush over at any time in case she suddenly got upset and hurt someone.
Ye Rou was also feeling very uncomfortable now. The old man's emotions were too strong. The bitter taste of pain and sadness was mixed with a pungent spicy smell, which made her nose sour and she just wanted to sneeze.
Moreover, the emotions surrounding her became increasingly intense and complex, which also meant that Ruan Tingwen was becoming increasingly excited.
Ye Rou was afraid that the old man would be stimulated again and become confused again, so she pulled out the golden needle again, but was stopped just as she was about to move.
"No need." Ruan Tingwen panted heavily, hunched over, trying to suppress the wail that welled up from the bottom of his heart, and the sound squeezed out of his throat:
"Lily, Lily...how did she die?"
The old man's shoulders were tense, like a bowstring about to break. Ye Rou supported her and did not answer the question, but said: "Grandpa and uncle are fine, they are in Beijing now."
Ye Rou meant to comfort him, but Ruan Tingwen was almost out of breath. She grabbed the clothes on her chest and hit them hard twice, but the bloating in her chest still did not ease. She screamed:
"Only Lily, my Lily!"
Ye Rou's eyes also turned red.
She was at a loss as to what to do when facing the old man.
I didn't know what to say to comfort her, nor did I know what to do to make her feel better. I just stood there, not knowing where to put my hands and feet.
But as Song Zhishu said to Tang Panxia, women are not as strong as men, but they are resilient.
Ruan Tingwen felt dizzy and he bit his tongue tightly, his heart aching but he stayed awake.
"Good boy, don't be afraid. Tell me about your mother. Tell me everything."
Seeing that she held on, Ye Rou breathed a sigh of relief.
He first helped the old woman sit down, then asked Monkey to pour some water. He put his fingers on the old woman's pulse to make sure of her physical condition at all times, and then told her everything.
"... Li Rui hid you, and my mother thought you were dead... The Li family adopted my uncle... My mother met my father Liang Yushan... After being accused of adultery and expelled from the military region... Li Guang hired Chang Long to sell my mother to a human trafficker..."
Feeling the old man's suddenly accelerated pulse and heavy breathing, Ye Rou hurriedly said: "Fortunately, my mother was recognized as a military family member and was rescued by a veteran of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, but..."
Ye Rou lowered her eyes: "She was too weak and died not long after giving birth to me."
Ye Rou lied.
She did not mention that Ye Hai was attracted by Zheng Lili's beauty and took advantage of her weakness after giving birth to force her to commit suicide, causing her to become completely desperate.
After Ye Rou finished speaking, Ruan Tingwen was silent for a long time. Her heavy breathing and shaky body silently expressed her collapse.
For some reason, Ye Rou felt that what the old man needed at this moment was not comfort, but a hug.
Ye Rou did not hesitate, half-knelt in front of the old woman, threw herself into her arms, hugged her waist and abdomen, and called out in a muffled voice: "Grandma, I'm sorry."
The word "Grandma" was like a hammer that broke Ruan Tingwen's heart into pieces.
The hand she placed on Ye Rou's shoulder was shaking violently, and her voice was trembling as well: "Good child, I don't blame you. I knew that the Li family had ill intentions... I let the wolf into the house... I am the one who deserves to die!"
"Puff!" The hot and fishy blood sprayed on Ye Rou's back and soaked her clothes.
Ye Rou slowly raised her head, and a drop of blood fell on her forehead.
The old man's face was as pale as paper, the corners of his mouth were bright red, his eyes were dead, and he tried to wipe the blood with trembling hands, but before he touched it, he fainted.
"grandmother!"
-
After the mute woman left, the cold woman took her place and took over the miscellaneous chores in the yard, while the high woman was still responsible for watching the yard next door.
Zheng Zhiyuan was reading a document when Leng Po knocked on the door and said, "Someone wants to see you."
"See me?" Zheng Zhiyuan frowned slightly, got up and went to the outer hall, where someone was already waiting.
The figure from behind is a woman wearing a cheongsam, with her hair tied up. She is dressed very delicately, but one can still see some signs of decadence due to her age.
Zheng Zhiyuan frowned and asked, "Excuse me..."
The woman turned her head when she heard the voice. She had a face that Zheng Zhiyuan would never forget until his death. His hands hanging at his sides tightened into fists: "Li Wenxin!"
The person who came was Li Wenxin.
She and Li Guang had completely broken up. Adhering to the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, the first person she thought of was Zheng Zhiyuan.
Thinking of what his family had done to the Zheng family, Li Wenxin's face became hot, but thinking of the purpose of coming here, he still gritted his teeth and greeted, "Brother Zheng, long time no see."
Li Guang was younger than Zheng Zhiyuan and they were classmates. In order to get closer to Zheng Zhiyuan, he called him "Senior Brother Zheng".
Li Wenxin followed Li Guang's call, the name remained the same, but the person had changed long ago.
She was old. Zheng Zhiyuan, who used to be known as a gentle gentleman, looked at her with a look that made him want to kill her: "What are you doing here?"
Li Wenxin knew that she was not welcome, but she had made sufficient preparations before coming and was not afraid that Zheng Zhiyuan would not agree to help her.
But for people like Zheng Zhiyuan, you should say the opposite:
"Li Guang has been arrested, Senior Brother. I know he has wronged you, but you are fellow disciples after all. I beg you to save him!"
Zheng Zhiyuan sneered and said, "He deserves it. I won't help you with this. Please leave!"
His clenched fists loosened, his fingertips felt numb, and he made a gesture to see her off, and Zheng Zhiyuan no longer looked at her.
Zheng Zhiyuan showed good self-control by not pointing at Li Wenxin's nose and cursing at her on the spot.
Li Wenxin didn't move, her butt seemed to be glued to the chair.
"Brother Zheng, don't be so fierce! Let's talk nicely. Whatever you want, I'll give it to you as long as I can afford it. I only have one request, save my old Li..."
"Bang!" The teacup fell at Li Wenxin's feet, and the splashed broken porcelain pieces scratched her ankle, causing a sharp pain.
"Get lost!" Zheng Zhiyuan's eyes were red. "I'm telling you, as long as I'm here, Li Guang will never get out!"
Li Wenxin achieved her goal. She covered her secret smile with a handkerchief and pretended to be frightened. She said nervously, "Brother Zheng, since you don't want to hear it, I won't say anything."
She stood up leisurely, and before leaving, she glanced at the spacious and luxurious courtyard, with jealousy flashing in her eyes. She tightened her hand holding the door frame and said maliciously, "Brother Zheng, say hello to Sister Ruan for me."
Zheng Zhiyuan was startled, then he reacted and immediately chased after him: "What do you mean by your last sentence?"
Li Wenxin pretended to be surprised and said, "Brother Zheng, don't you know? Sister Ruan is not dead."
Did you hear that Wen is not dead?
Zheng Zhiyuan was shocked at first, and then he was ecstatic: "Where is Tingwen?"
Li Wenxin pretended to be innocent and shook her head: "Only Li Rui knows the whereabouts of Sister Ruan. Unfortunately, Li Rui's tongue was cut off and his limbs were broken. He will never be able to speak in this life."
She covered her mouth with a handkerchief in a pretentious manner, pretending to be apologetic: "So, sorry, Brother Zheng, I don't know where Sister Ruan is either."
Seeing that Zheng Zhiyuan was so irritated by her words that he was about to collapse, Li Wenxin smiled happily and left happily.
Zheng Zhiyuan seemed to be crazy, muttering: "Tingwen is still alive, Tingwen is still alive, I want to find her!"
