Thirteenth Lady's Comback: Her Everyday Life as a Bystander Chapter 229 - 11: Parting Feelings (2)
As soon as the Old Madam finished speaking, Susu and the other three, along with Nanny Qin, all laughed. "Isn’t it all about adding people to the family! The Old Madam’s words are way more eloquent than Susu’s!"
Everyone tried their best to laugh and make rry, pretending not to hear Susu ntion she would leave on the sixteenth of March. Sixteenth of March? Today is already the ninth! These joyful days are indeed reduced by one each day!
Susu and Hong Sheng didn’t leave the Shun’an Earl Mansion until after dinner. Susu, who rarely laughed heartily, laughed throughout the whole day today, but once she got on the carriage, tears sohow welled up and fell from her eyes.
Hong Sheng was startled, thinking Susu had suffered so grievance in the inner courtyard, but she should be fine since she had returned ho, and the young masters of the Song Family even played the role of big brothers and poured him wine.
"Don’t cry, don’t cry, even if it involves murder or arson, your husband will stand up for you!" Listen to Hong Sheng’s words of love, quite eloquent indeed.
Upon hearing this, Susu chuckled. Tears were still in her eyes, a smile on her face; anyone else would definitely have a twisted expression crying and laughing like that.
Yet when Susu did it, it was just one word—beautiful. That was the advantage of being good-looking. Not to ntion, in Hong Sheng’s eyes, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder," even if Susu picked her nose, he would probably say, "unique!"
Susu covered her eyes with a handkerchief, nestled in Hong Sheng’s arms, embarrassed for once, and with a post-cry nasal tone said, "I didn’t want to cry, but these tears just fell down for so reason."
Hong Sheng tightened his grip around Susu and said, "I will treat you well." So, don’t regret agreeing to marry .
This second half of the sentence stayed in Hong Sheng’s mouth, unable to co out, just feeling a dull ache in his heart.
Susu was usually sensitive, but at this mont, she was full of sorrow and didn’t realize Hong Sheng misunderstood her. However, upon hearing Hong Sheng’s words, she wiped her tears and gave Hong Sheng a slight smile, "I know, from the ti you stood before like heavenly soldiers and generals, I knew!"
Hong Sheng then felt what it’s like to take "one step to paradise, one step to hell," as if the pain never existed, his heart as sweet as drinking honey water, happily even if it was a sugary overload! But "heavenly soldiers and generals" was a bit too embarrassing.
Susu looked at the man whose smiling eyes squinted, indeed to make a horse run, you need to let the horse hear the grass! Who said n don’t love hearing sweet talk?
As for heavenly soldiers and generals? Ha ha, a hero who rides on colorful clouds could never be a re mortal! These are minor details, so let’s not dwell on them!
The day after returning ho, Susu brought Hong Sheng to Mrs. Zhao’s house.
This spring, because of an unexpected cold snap, many people in the Capital got sick, and not only the private clinics but even the Imperial Hospital were extrely busy.
And Mrs. Zhao caught a cold because of this, which worsened if she wasn’t careful. By the ti Susu got married, she hadn’t recovered, even on the first day during dressing she couldn’t get up, only sending Sister Qiuyun with a set of red gold headdress.
Susu had been worrying endlessly, and now finally finding the ti, she personally prepared gifts and brought Hong Sheng along.
Hong Sheng didn’t ride a horse either but shared the carriage with Susu. Susu told him about Mrs. Zhao’s kindness to her but skipped over so unspeakable parts.
After hearing, Hong Sheng said: "This Mrs. Zhao is indeed compassionate!" Then, hesitated a bit, "Susu, when will you take to et the father-in-law and mother-in-law? I want to tell them I will take good care of you and assure them!"
Susu was montarily stunned, then quickly lowered her head, "I lit an Everlasting Lamp for them at Louchui Temple in Qingping Mountain, I will take you there tomorrow morning then!" As for graves, she had no idea as she had beco a nun halfway through! It seed even if she didn’t co today, she would have to find ti to ask Mrs. Zhao!
Susu’s voice carried a heartbreaking sadness, which Hong Sheng couldn’t bear, and thoughts of visiting graves were soon forgotten, asking forgiveness from the father-in-law and mother-in-law, the wife was more important at this ti!
Talking, they arrived at Mrs. Zhao’s house, still with that black painted wooden door, only Susu’s mood changed every ti she visited, feeling quite like everything had changed.
They sent a visiting card before coming, and the Zhao Family’s gatekeeper recognized Zhao Wu, who drove the carriage; he was Shuimo’s elder brother and had delivered things together with Shuimo or Bai Fu’s family several tis.
The gatekeeper, already instructed by his master, saw Zhao Wu, and one gatekeeper went inside to report, while the other opened the gate, nodding and bowing, said: "Are Lord Hong and Grandma Hong in the carriage?"
