After a moment of silence, Aunt White stammered, ”Oh, Little Su, you have to forgive me. I can't bear to see that child of the Liu family sad before telling a lie.”
”Where did this come from?”
She had never seen Aunt Bai so sad. She instantly understood that something must have happened.
Sure enough, Aunt Bai hesitantly went to see Liu Yuan in the village of Liu Jia Village and told him everything.
It turned out that Liu Yuan was beaten up and his injuries were quite severe, and he was even sent back while in a coma. When he woke up, he realized that the silver hairpin he brought along with him had disappeared.
Seeing that Aunt Bai had gone to visit him, and had even forced herself to get up and apologize, asking about Su Zhi's situation, and seeing how his face was bruised, Aunt Bai's heart softened. She could not bear to tell him Su Zhi's true thoughts, telling him to just take care of his injuries and wait for the good news.
Liu Yuan's mood was really good. Although he was wounded, he didn't feel depressed.
”Therefore, I'm really sorry that I didn't handle this matter properly.”
Su Zhi sighed, not knowing what to say.
With such a ruckus, Liu Yuan would definitely think that his marriage proposal was a success. Who knows, it might not be long before he would come back with a betrothal gift after recovering from his injuries.
Aunt Bai saw that she was silent and told her about Liu Yuan's injuries and Liu Yuan's sincerity in building a new house and preparing to marry her.
”Little Su, why don't you reconsider?” The child really wants to marry you. ”
Su Zhi was in a difficult situation. On one hand, she was worried that A Jin would be hurt, and on the other hand, it was because of her own selfishness. She didn't like Liu Yuan.
The most important thing was that she actually cared about Xiao Qian's opinion. He was trying to put on a brave front, but his words were firm. He wouldn't allow her to marry Liu Yuan.
”Aunt, I really... This matter of relationship is not something that can be forced. ”
”Hey, I haven't even met your uncle before we got married, and they still respect each other like they're together. They've spent their entire lives with each other. Find a man? Firstly, let's see if he's capable or not, and secondly, let's see how his character is. Can he treat you well?
Love over a long period of time? Is it love or habit?
”Aunt, my child is still young, so I can't ignore their feelings right now.”
Aunt Bai was also getting anxious. She had seen how good Liu Yuan was with her own eyes, but Su Zhi had refused again and again. If she said something more serious, she would really not know what was good for her.
”Ai, whatever, I can't force you. After being tired for the entire day, you can go and rest first. Just change the fact that I have accompanied this old face of yours and explain it clearly to him. ”
Su Zhi held her head in an apologetic manner and watched Aunt Bai leave.
Just as she closed the door and turned around, she was surprised to find A Jin leaning on the front door, staring at her.
”Jin?”
She had thought that Ah Jin would plead as hard as he had begged her to, but to her surprise, the first thing he said surprised her greatly.
”Mom, A Jin agrees to let you stay with Uncle Liu.”
Su Zhi was stupefied. It had only been a few days, and the child's heart had changed so quickly.
A Jin had his own considerations. He had followed Su Zhi to the store yesterday. He understood how difficult it was for Su Zhi to hold on by herself. What was even more infuriating was that there was a strange uncle bullying her.
The child immediately realized that even if his strange uncle hadn't appeared, there would still have been others who would have provoked his mother.
If he had a father to protect his mother, things would be completely different.
”What happened to A Jin today?”
He took a step forward and wrapped his arms around Su Zhi's slender waist. With red eyes, he said pitifully, ”Mother, in the future, when you have a little brother, don't forget about me and my little sister.”
”I'm willing to give him my mother's love.”
Su Zhi's heart softened into a mess. If she hugged her sobbing child and didn't even have time to comfort him, how would she be able to think of Auntie Bai's warning?
”A Jin be good, don't let your imagination run wild, mom will always love you and your little sister.”
A Jin hugged her waist and mumbled, ”If only Uncle Xiao could be A Jin's father. He is a powerful martial artist and a great general. No one would dare to bully his mother.”
Su Zhi could not hear his words clearly. She only thought that the child was flirting with her and did not pursue the matter to the end. After pacifying the two children who were coming with her, she took her leave and went into the shop.
When the morning sun pierced through the clouds and shone through the land, the flowery buildings were already filled with guests.
The sign of the store stated that as long as they went there early, the price of the eggs and vegetables would be 10%.
Therefore, every time the restaurant opened, a bunch of old grannies would stand outside the door.
However, Hua Manlou did not open the door today. Qiu Hong and the other shop assistants had been waiting for a long time, but still could not hear anything.
Only when Su Zhi came did the business begin.
