Chapter 128: The truth is so cruel!

The old house of the Li family.
Mrs. Li has no other hobbies, but especially likes a group of koi in the backyard pool.
Especially on the rockery in the middle of the pond, there is a pair of longevity tortoises. According to them, they were raised when Mrs. Li was there. These fish and tortoises have comforted Mrs. Li over the years.
"Baby, eat quickly, eat for nothing, and give birth to more grandchildren. I will have someone build a new home for you again. When you partly move over, it won’t look so crowded."
Old lady Li was dressed in a brocade-colored Tang suit, her snow-white hair turned into a bun, she was still graceful and luxurious after eighty years, and she sat calmly by the pool, sprinkling fish food leisurely.
"Old lady, the young master is here." The butler reported.
Holding the fish food hand for a while: "What is he here for? Tell him I'm not free, so I don't go to the company all day, and come to see me, what does this old lady do?"
The old lady didn't like Li Beixun's origins, and she had to start with her eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law.
According to Li Beixun's biological mother was a professor at a university at the time, a scholarly family, and knowledgeable, but even such a girl would not be seen by old ladies.
In the old lady's traditional concept, right is the first and foremost condition.
A big family like them, a century-old wealthy family, at least those daughters who are right in their positions are qualified to be the gate of the Li family.
But Li's mother was not only the daughter of a poor teacher, but her mother died in childbirth as soon as she was born, so Li's mother has always been regarded by her as an ominous person.
It happened that my eldest child liked it so much, but I didn't agree with him, so I just cut it and played it.
Mother Li was pregnant with Li Beixun, and with the blood of the Li family, even if the old lady disagreed, she could only open one eye and close one eye.
Compared to the boss, the old lady likes the third.
As the saying goes, the emperor loves long, the people love their children.
Her three sons are not only obedient, but also ask her for advice on almost everything.
Including when the third daughter-in-law was pregnant, she was only found to be a girl.
The old lady was immediately unhappy, and the third daughter-in-law immediately gave up her child and became pregnant.
Such an obedient daughter-in-law is still an ideal model of filial piety in the mind of the old lady.
Moreover, in the Li family, regardless of men and women, over time, it is inevitable to have an instinctive control of rights, even the old lady can't avoid the vulgarity.
If the third child sat in the position of Patriarch, then she would undoubtedly be the empress dowager who "listened to politics".
"Old lady? Old lady?" The butler called her several times.
"What is it? My ears are not deaf." Old lady Li said quietly.
The housekeeper was a little embarrassed: "Young Master Li doesn't seem to be alone when he comes back this time. He, he brought his grandson-in-law back to show you."
Granddaughter! ! !
As soon as she heard the words grandson and daughter-in-law, Mrs. Li felt like an oil tank fell into the fire and exploded.
"Unreasonably, he is always like this, he is like this now! How can I meet such children and grandchildren! Go! Call them both, I want to see what the woman he brought with me is. appearance!"
...
In the meeting room.
Moon-white cheongsam, tall hair, slender neck, exquisite earlobes, delicate white face...
The girl's appearance is beautiful and charming, and her behavior is like everyone's lady.
just……
"What was your name just now?" The old lady Li was getting old and looked bad.
Only vaguely, I think this girl has a familiar feeling.
"It's sunny. When the time is sunny, it's sunny."
Shi Qing raised her head and chest. She was neither humble nor arrogant to this stern-looking old lady, and she was still generous in her speech and behavior.
The cheongsam outfit she deliberately wore today looks dignified and elegant, simple and generous, hoping to give the old lady a good impression.
Snapped--
The rosary thread that the old lady fiddled with was broken and all fell to the ground. The rosary beads rolled all over the floor.
The housekeeper was anxious: "Old lady, you have to take care of your body."
Old Madam Li panted quickly, but pushed away the butler's hand, but tried to ease her breathing, no wonder she felt familiar, this is not...
"Is it time to take the medicine?" she asked suddenly.
The housekeeper knew what she meant to leave, and said respectfully: "Yes."
"That's fine." The old lady looked at Shiqing: "Let me take you to the back garden. I planted strawberries there. They should be ripe now. I will try them. They are all grown by myself. I will take medicine first , And then go by in a while."
Shi Qing originally wanted to pick up the rosary that had fallen on the ground, but in the old house, she had better not act rashly, but said politely: "Okay, thank you old lady."
Jiang is still old and hot, so angry, he still has to keep his manners.
Li Beixun's eyes fell quietly, expressionless.
"Then grandma...I'll take Shi Qing there." Her hand wrapped Shi Qing's slender waist.
The old lady glanced at him dissatisfiedly: "You smelly, you finally come back once, shouldn't you wait for me to take medicine?"
Li Beixun still smiled politely: "But, I want to accompany Shi Qing, the backyard is so big, I'm afraid she will get lost."
How did Shi Qing know what dumb riddles were playing between the two, and said sensibly: "Why don't you go with the old lady, there are so many people here, how can I get lost?"
"Have you heard? Shi Qing is still sensible." The old lady exaggerated without hesitation.
The smile on Li Beixun's mouth disappeared, but the arm on her waist tightened again.
Shi Qing only thought he was reluctant: "You go now, I am not a child, and the health of the elderly is more important. You will come to me later."
Li Beixun was originally worried about Shi Qing, but he is no longer what he used to be, and the old house is not invulnerable.
There is no problem for the people he put here to protect Shi Qing's safety: "Okay, then I will go, your heart."
"Yeah." Shi Qing nodded.
At this moment, Li Beixun suddenly stepped forward, pressed her forehead in front of everyone, and dropped a kiss.
Mrs. Li: "..."
Shi Qing had heard of the old house of the Li family before, and according to it, it has accumulated wealth for several generations.
Even the round white stones paved under the feet have the effect of warming in winter and cooling in summer.
Throughout the courtyard, the birds and flowers are fragrant, and the old trees are shaded. In the middle, there is a feeling of returning to the ancient courtyard.
Just turning a corridor, Shi Qing's cell phone rang.
It was a message from Ji Xiao.
The message is a screenshot with a line of text below: "See? This is the effect of me leaving Mu Qianli aside! Now he has given the contract, I took a look, and it is full of the treaty of humiliating the country. , Is great for us, let’s take a look first, if there is no problem, do you want to sign with him?
There is also an exaggerated expression of pride at the end.
Shi Qing smiled bitterly, and Mu Qianli was so pitiful. He offended Ji Xiao and didn't know how he died.
He replied: "Just make the decision."
About Li Beixun's proposal, she hadn't had time to give Ji Xiao, so let's go back.
After returning the message, Shi Qing put the phone back in her bag. At this moment, she suddenly touched a square velvet box.
When she came, she deliberately went to the jewelry store to choose a string of ice-seed jade necklace for the old lady as a meeting gift, but she forgot to give it to the elderly.
It’s the first time I see a parent, and it’s an elder, if I don’t give a gift, is it particularly rude?
After hesitating again and again, she stopped the maid leading the way: "Can you send me back? I have something else to do. I need to meet the old lady."
The study room upstairs.
Shi Qing stepped on the carved wooden ladder with a sense of age and went upstairs little by little, because there were velvet cushions under her feet, and the soft ones stepped on them, but there was no sound.
Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, his heart was still stubborn.
The old lady is Li Beixun's grandmother. Although she doesn't expect the other party to like herself much, Shi Qing also doesn't want to make herself annoying and bring unnecessary trouble to Li Beixun.
I hope this gift can be accepted by her.
Thinking like this in his heart, he slowly approached the study.
The door of the study was slightly open, and the voice of the two of them came out, because they were far away, I didn't know what they were in, as if they were arguing.
Shi Qing was a little surprised, just about to get closer, suddenly, a blue and white porcelain vase fell out of the door.
boom--
After the sound of clawing, the porcelain bottle shattered, and the fragments were flying everywhere. One or two pieces of Shi Qing's skin were wiped, and traces of blood were drawn on her hands.
Before she could cover the wound, she heard the old lady's angry cursing: "Asshole thing! Why do you want to marry a woman who used to give you a surrogate?! Is it just because she is the mother of your child?! You are using her Remind me how I forced you back then?! Cursing me didn’t end well?!"
Before Shi Qing recovered from the shock of the broken porcelain vase, she heard Li Beixun's extremely cool sneer, "Six years ago, you chose Shi Qing to give me a surrogacy. Six years later, I am willing to marry her. . Isn’t this as you wish? Why be angry?"
Shi Qing's whole brain seemed to be smashed by ten thousand catties of heavy iron, a little buzzing, what was he? Six years ago...surrogacy! ! !
Six years ago that person... was Li Beixun! ! !
The old lady Li was about to vomit blood out of anger: "Do you fulfill my wish? This is to me off! Do you know why I chose her back then?! You can't marry her because she—"
"No matter what it is, she, I will marry!"
Shi Qing couldn't listen to the words behind.
There was a buzz in my ears, as if being filled with water, I couldn't hear anything.
The oxygen in the air seemed to be taken away by someone. She was gasping for breath, as if to suffocate, but the lungs seemed to be torn to death, so painful.
I don't want to listen anymore, I don't want to listen anymore.
Because, I don’t want to know more terrible things...
The dizziness hits in bursts, and the legs are weakening...
She turned around vaguely and dumbly. After being defeated by the sudden truth, she walked out mechanically. She didn't even remember how she went downstairs in a daze and walked out of Li's house...
