After Lu Changgong was rescued, Su Sijin was planning to give the mother and son space to talk, but was stopped by Lu Changgong and Zheng Jie.
Zheng Jie looked at Lu Changgong standing in front of her in one piece, and the self-blame and heartache she had felt for many days finally burst out at this moment.
Zheng Jie was seen hugging Lu Changgong and crying bitterly, crying uncontrollably.
Lu Changgong let Zheng Jie vent, and Lu Qiuling and Lu Changji also joined in the story. The four mothers and children cried so sadly and wailed so loudly that it really made anyone who listened to them cry.
Lu Changgong held the three of them in his arms, and silent comfort was the most powerful comfort.
Lu Changgong is alive, and for Zheng Jie, the missing piece has been patched up, but there is still a corner that is bleeding.
After everyone calmed down, Lu Changgong asked about Lu Changming.
Zheng Jie, who had calmed down, started sobbing again, covering her mouth. While crying, she explained the reason for Lu Changming's disappearance.
Zheng Jie cried so much that her face was covered with tears and snot, and all she could say was self-blame.
"It's all my fault. I'm useless. How can I put the blame on him? He's just a child!" Zheng Jie cried, wailed, blamed herself, and felt guilty.
Lu Changming didn't come back, her heart couldn't be reconciled, her heart could never be perfect again.
"I don't know where Changming is. Is he cold? Is he hungry? If I can't find you, do you think you don't care about me or your brothers and sisters?"
"He's a reckless man. If he encounters a wild beast, he will definitely fight it without regard for the consequences. He never thinks twice before doing anything. He never uses his brain when his fists can solve the problem. Chang Gong, he..."
"Chang Gong, I lost Chang Ming. Your father will be so disappointed when he sees him! I am too ashamed to see him! I am too ashamed."
Su Sijin, Chen Tingyun, and Lu Changgong were silent. Zheng Jie had been depressed for too long and she needed to vent. Otherwise, the depression would harm her heart and body, which would be tantamount to chronic suicide.
Zheng Jie had cried enough and finished her story. Lu Changgong said to her with a firm look in his eyes, "Mother, please believe me. I will find my second brother. I will make him apologize to you. I will tie him up and come to you to apologize."
Lu Changgong's promise made Zheng Jie exclaim, "Okay, okay, I believe Gong'er can find Ming'er and bring him back. Then our family will be reunited, and the missing piece of my heart will be filled."
Because Zheng Jie was too sad, Su Sijin asked her to drink some spiritual spring water, and she fell asleep soon after.
Lu Changgong was very worried. Su Sijin pressed down his restless hand and said, "It's okay. I gave mother some medicine. She's worried too much. Let her have a good sleep!"
After settling Zheng Jie here, Su Sijin and Lu Changgong found Jiang Hong and told him about Jiang Guan's sacrifice.
"Uncle Jiang is righteous, Master Jiang, accept my condolences." Su Sijin pushed the urn towards him. "At that time, there was no choice but to cremate him, because I couldn't let my uncle end up with no remains left."
"Here are the ashes of my uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters. Once we get out and find a place to settle down, we can bury them properly!"
"In this way, we can enjoy the offerings of our descendants. I believe they will be pleased if they know about this in the afterlife."
Su Sijin was afraid that Jiang Hong and others would not be able to accept it, so she analyzed her original intention and tried her best to make them accept it.
I thought it would take some time to explain, but unexpectedly, Jiang Hong and the others were all sensible and didn't say a word.
Su Sijin was very pleased to see this, "I think Jiang Bo and his family hope to always watch over their children and grandchildren."
After Su Sijin finished speaking, she took a few steps back, bowed solemnly, and said sincerely: "I am rude and have taken the initiative to cremate someone. I hope you can forgive me."
Su Sijin's move completely calmed down everyone's complaints and also won everyone's respect.
Just imagine, if it were anyone else, would they be bound by etiquette and dare not bring the cremated body back?
What are the consequences of not bringing it back? Anyone with a brain would want to know.
Although Su Sijin's action is against the law, we have to say, is there a better way besides this plan?
So, what is there to complain about?
When they first heard it, some people just couldn't understand it. But when Su Sijin made her intentions clear and genuinely cared about them, it would be ungrateful for them to still blame her.
After everyone left, Su Sijin called Xu Yongsi and Xu Kai.
Su Sijin got straight to the point and stated her purpose directly, "Uncle Xu, I have a request that is difficult for you to make. I hope Uncle Xu will fulfill it."
Xu Yongsi's eyes widened slightly, and he glanced at Su Sijin in feigned anger, "I am a military commander, and I am not used to your literary style. If you have something to say, please speak quickly."
Su Sijin was amused by Xu Yongsi's boldness and also stopped pretending to be elegant. "It's like this. I see that the second master Xu is very skilled, speaks for justice, is open-minded, and his steering skills are even better. After we get out, I want to ask for it. Uncle Xu, please give it up."
Xu Yongsi didn't expect Su Sijin to ask for Xu Kai.
To him, illegitimate sons were dispensable, so he gave all his resources to his legitimate son Xu Hao and didn't care much about his illegitimate children. Therefore, it was impossible for him not to be surprised when Su Sijin asked him for Xu Kai.
What did Su Sijin say?
Is he a skilled fighter? A strong advocate? A generous person? And a master at the helm?
Is this the illegitimate son of his Xu family?
Why do you think this is the behavior that a legitimate son should have?
Xu Yongsi glanced around the crowd and looked uncertainly at a young man who was looking extremely thin and had his head lowered.
Xu Yongsi quickly looked away, thinking that how could he, who had spent his whole life in the military, give birth to such a timid son?
Su Sijin saw clearly the disgust in Xu Yongsi's eyes, and then looked at Xu Kai.
The previous Xu Kai and the current Xu Kai formed a sharp contrast, and were nothing like the Xu Kai she knew before!
Or is it that Xu Kai is only so timid in front of Xu Yongsi?
That's right, Xu Yongsi despises the illegitimate son so much, and he has been suppressed to the point where he can't even raise his head. Who wouldn't be afraid? Since that's the case, whether Xu Yongsi agrees or not, she will get it back.
She believed that Xu Kai would be a good helper.
Afterwards, Xu Yongsi thanked Su Sijin profusely. Even though he didn't like illegitimate sons, one should be grateful. Since it was a life-saving grace, he should repay it with gratitude.
After exchanging pleasantries with Su Sijin, he said to Xu Kai indifferently, "Mrs. Lu saved your life, so your life belongs to her. Stay by her side, do your job well, and repay her well."
Everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while and then prepared to leave tomorrow.
Xuan Yi ignored the pain in his head and couldn't wait to ask the question that had been pent up for a long time, "Mr. Lu, that cabin was airtight. How did you and Madam Lu escape?"
Xuan Yi was really curious, extremely curious. As soon as he saw Lu Changgong, he wanted to ask, but the atmosphere... he still held back.
Unexpectedly, he endured it for six hours. If he didn't get the answer tonight, he would not sleep tonight.
