Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Su Yun is not a human
The lawyer's last name was Min, so Su Yun stepped forward and said, "Min, I'm looking for you. My parents are traveling and not at home, but I have an accident."
Lawyer Min immediately became serious: "You tell me, I will try my best."
Then Su Yun invited him to the reception room and told him about the police coming to investigate the water flow this morning.
When he first heard it, Lawyer Min thought it was because the daughter of an old friend had committed a crime and needed a lawyer. He didn't expect it was this matter. He thought about it and said, "Don't be nervous, Director Su. I looked carefully when I went to apply for it. Both of your accounts are marked. You can't use them before you reach adulthood."
"It was just before I became an adult, but the police said that the key transactions appeared after I became an adult." Su Yun didn't think the police would wrongly accuse her. She just found it strange why they went around in circles and used her account?
"In fact, the two curators have already proved all your cash flow after you turned 20 years old. However, it is difficult to prove the cash flow between the ages of 18 and 20 because you did not leave the Su family at that time. Therefore, all the cash flow during this period can be regarded as the living expenses provided by the Su family for you." Lawyer Min said very embarrassedly after hearing the time.
National laws stipulate that parents have an obligation to support their children until they are 18 years old. If the children continue their studies after the age of 18, the parents should continue to support them. However, many families do not take the regulations after the age of 18 seriously, and this is even more unacceptable.
All in all, it is difficult to define the flow of money after the age of eighteen. If it is after graduation from college, it is much easier to identify. However, no one will doubt that the flow of money from the age of eighteen to college graduation is the cost of parents' upbringing.
If it is finally determined that Su Yun used the stolen money, there is no guarantee that he will not be implicated.
But she got it after she turned eighteen.
Normally, this level of information is actually not important at all, but if the Su family is involved in a criminal case this time, Su Yun has to prove that she is not involved, otherwise she will become an accomplice in handling money in the case.
Is an eighteen year old capable of handling large sums of money?
Children from ordinary families may not have it, but children from wealthy families definitely can.
Su Yun hadn't figured out how to deal with it yet when he heard Lawyer Min say, "Actually, Director Su, there's something I never thought of involving you. Now that you asked me this, I think it might be related to you, oh no, the Su family. Something happened at the Su family's factory a few days ago."
"What happened? Is it related to the police finding me this time?" Su Yun pretended to be confused.
Lawyer Min nodded. "There has been no news in other places, but the lawyers have already started preparing. I heard that a body with an unrecognizable face was found in the Su family's factory. According to inside information, the body has been dead for more than five years."
Su Yun's business was dealing with the dead. He knew that it was difficult to determine the time of death by normal means. It required a little bit of testing. Sometimes a corpse that looked like it had only been dead for a month or two might have been dead for more than a year. The environment had a great impact on the condition of the corpse.
What the lawyer meant was that since the body could be judged to be more than five years old, the time was very close to Su Yun's coming-of-age ceremony.
We may as well make a bold guess that the flow of money was the money that the Su family had to handle when they committed a crime.
If Su Yun gets involved, it would be equivalent to dragging Su Lin and her parents into the water. If the truth comes out one day, they will definitely try their best to find a way to clean up the matter in order to prove their innocence.
Of course, it is also possible that this was done by Su Yun’s adoptive parents, and they wanted to use Su Yun’s luck to suppress this matter.
Su Yun sneered: "It's ridiculous that there is such a play. Is there any way to prove that I have never used those two accounts?"
Lawyer Min thought for a moment and said, "Normally, whoever makes the claim is responsible for providing evidence. Even if it goes to court, as long as you insist that you never used it, no one can say anything. The premise is that there is really no evidence at all."
"You mean, if the Su family is desperate, they might give false evidence?" Su Yun asked, and then felt it was outrageous, "Actually, I don't think so. Even if they prove that I am related to this matter, it doesn't mean that they don't have to face legal sanctions. After all, the body was in the Su family's factory, and I didn't kill the person."
"If all the evidence is false, it is possible that it is a false case, because those are the records and factories monitored by the Su family. There is only one body now. As far as I know, Director Su, you have been good at fighting since you were a child. It is easy for you to hurt one person alone." Lawyer Min prepared for the worst and reminded Su Yun.
It’s not that Lawyer Min doubts Su Yun, but if the other party becomes shameless, he might do this.
As a lawyer, I have seen everything, including even more despicable things.
Su Yun's face trembled when he heard this: "So, what does Lawyer Min think I should do now?"
"Find an alibi for the corresponding date, preferably one from school, because you were a senior high school student at that time. The school's surveillance and sign-in books must have been lost, but the test records must be there," Lawyer Min said seriously.
In other words, whether Su Yun spent money or killed someone, she had to have a proof of leaving school. If she was there in the school's examination records, it meant that she was taking exams all the time. How could she get the phone or leave school?
As long as there is school records as evidence, any other accusations are useless. Sometimes such official records are more important than any other means of proof.
Just like if someone reports that a university graduate killed someone in a certain place at 10 a.m. on June 7th or 8th, that is a complete rumor. The rumor can be debunked by simply checking whether the candidate was present on that day.
Although the credibility of ordinary tests is not as good as that of the college entrance examination system, it still has some proof strength.
Su Yun nodded slightly, thinking it was reliable: "That's no problem, I just need to go back to school, other than that, I don't have to do anything else?"
Lawyer Min replied: "It's not like I can't say nothing, but it depends on whether Director Su can remember more details. I will try my best to provide transaction records, but if the Su family is determined to have you take the blame, then..."
A large group like the Su family has a complete and excellent team of lawyers, and can also use the public relations team to guide public opinion. Sometimes the court will give in to public opinion. When it comes to that step, Su Yun can only compete by producing very hard evidence.
In fact, Lawyer Min felt that the fact that the police came to find Su Yun proved that someone in the Su family had hinted at this, but did not say it explicitly.
Firstly, if the case is transferred to Su Yun, who has already left the Su family, the police will first suspect whether she is the kind of child who was arranged to leave and be free from responsibility; secondly, when the police go to investigate Su Yun, the Su family will have a chance to breathe.
However, Lawyer Min did not tell Su Yun these words. He felt that Su Yun was still young, and based on her past deeds, she was an extremely stubborn and rebellious person. Ji Weitong and Su Yiling doted on their lost and found daughter very much. If he told them directly, Su Yun would probably go and blow up the Su family manor.
Su Yun pondered for a while, then told Lawyer Min that he understood and signed a letter of authorization for him. If there were any further problems later, he could directly handle them.
Lawyer Min agreed immediately and told Su Yun that he would pay attention to the news in the industry.
After seeing Lawyer Min off, Su Yun stood on the steps of the funeral home, watching the setting sun, without moving for a long time.
The ghost came out from behind the door and asked, "Director, don't worry too much. We have more methods than ordinary people. A small spell can make those people tell the truth and prevent the Su family from framing us successfully."
"I'm not worried about this, I just feel it's strange." Su Yun frowned.
"Ah? What's so strange about that?" The sexy ghost was puzzled.
Su Yun turned and looked at her: "I had a fortune-telling at noon, and the fortune-telling said that this matter is a very good and happy event for me, but... where does the happiness come from? Lawyer Min does not believe in the Su family, and even doubts their motives. This shows that in their industry, they think that the Su family wants to harm me, which does not match the fortune-telling."
Yan Gui didn't quite understand the hexagrams. She was confused and touched her head: "Director, I don't understand this. How about... you ask Lin Lang? His hexagrams are accurate."
Now that things have come to this, it would be more reassuring to ask for another divination. Su Yun then walked towards Lin Lang's workshop. Work had just started in the new year, and he had received quite a few orders before the New Year. Lin Lang had become numb to carving patterns.
Su Yun looked at the wood shavings on the floor of the workshop and didn't want to go in, so he said outside the door: "Lin Lang, come out and tell me your fortune."
Lin Lang had a good temper and would never get angry when Su Yun suddenly interrupted what he was doing. He responded and went to wash his hands before coming out with the compass.
"Director, what do you want to do?" Lin Lang asked obediently.
"I want to calculate whether the incident at the Su family is good or bad for me?" Su Yun simply asked the same question to see if it was still a good omen.
After listening, Lin Lang began to turn the compass, and finally the needle stopped, which was consistent with the result calculated by Su Yun himself.
Su Yun narrowed his eyes: "Why...even what you calculated is auspicious? But the Su family is not friendly to me."
Lin Lang thought for a moment and said, "Director, in the hexagram, the biggest error is time. We are asking about the result, but a lot of things can happen in the time between when something happens and when it ends."
Just like the date of death that Su Yun can see, every variable will become a driving force for death. Knowing the cause and effect does not mean knowing the truth.
Hearing this, Su Yun raised his hand and pinched the Su family's fortune, then stopped abruptly: "Ah, it seems that fate is faster."
The next day, Su Yun returned to her alma mater and obtained a copy of the attendance record of the exam from her homeroom teacher who loved her back then. It is unknown whether it matches the other evidence provided by the Su family.
But two days after returning to the funeral home with the form, bigger news came from the Su family - an accident suddenly occurred in another factory of the Su family, and the casualties are currently unknown.
When Su Yun saw this news in the news, she immediately understood the meaning of the hexagram. There must be other things happening later that would bring about the auspicious hexagram for her.
As soon as the incident happened, news about Su Yun spread everywhere, but some people who were relatively familiar with him called, including the Wu Jin brothers, Yi Fangjin, Lu Anning, Che Xuming, and even Grandpa Xin came to greet him. They were mainly worried about whether the Su family's affairs would implicate Su Yun, and they also said they could provide help.
After thanking them one by one, Su Yun told them not to worry, she had already told them that the Su family's affairs would not affect her, because the Su family was likely to encounter more troubles in the future, and with a series of accidents, they would not even be able to worry about framing or dragging others into trouble.
They all knew Su Yun's abilities, and they all felt relieved after hearing it. Since Su Yun said that the Su family would be unable to take care of themselves, it must be the case that they also had to start preparing to avoid being entangled by the Su family.
After hanging up the last call, Su Yun was suddenly stunned: "No, if I say this, they will not care about the Su family. Doesn't that mean that the Su family will be isolated and helpless from now on?"
Those who can get along well with Su Yun all had some connection with the Su family in the past. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are old friends. Now that the Su family is in trouble, these old friends choose to protect themselves because of Su Yun's words. It means that the Su family has no reliable people who can help.
The main reason is that those people who get along well with Su Yun are all people of good character. Even if they ask for a lot of help, they don’t have to worry about being bitten back. Others don’t have this guarantee.
Su Yun touched her face. She didn't do it on purpose. She just wanted to comfort her worried friends, but it turned out like this.
Incense was burning in the study, with faint smoke rising. Su Yun stared at it for a while, thinking of her fortune which had gradually improved since New Year's Eve. This made her feel that the luck that the Su family had borrowed from her for twenty years was going to be returned bit by bit.
A few days after resuming work after the New Year, the orders that had been agreed upon earlier started to arrive one after another. On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the hospital called and said that an elderly person who had been agreed upon earlier had passed away and asked the funeral home to pick up the body.
Just after I put down the phone, another call came in. There was another old man who had passed away, but this time at home. Because the old man didn't want to go back to the hospital, he died in his sleep while lying on his bed at home. The family didn't know how to deal with it, so they could only cry and call Su Yun to ask him to send someone over.
Su Yun was about to go to the hospital, but when he heard Yan Gui's additional call, he said, "I remember the old man in the hospital was a grandfather, and the one at home was the grandmother, right? In that case, we will separate them by gender. Master, you go to the hospital, I will take Yan to pick up the grandmother, and Second Master will stay to check the boiler and the morgue."
The employees responded in unison, picked up their boxes and set off separately. The male employees went to the hospital in the city center, while Su Yun went to the south of the city. The road was not easy to travel on.
The ghost bride didn't know how to drive, so she sat in the back with the sexy ghost. Su Yun drove, and let the two ghosts drive. I don't know if they know the road.
There was a lot of traffic jam when work started after the New Year, but picking up and dropping off the deceased was a very serious matter. Su Yun was not angry, but just took the time to remind Yan Gui that if the family members called to urge him, he should remember to report the route accurately so that the family members would have an idea. By the way, he reminded the family members that it would be best to pack up the deceased's things if they were willing.
Sure enough, after being stuck in traffic for half an hour, the family members called. Yan Gui gently explained to the family members what needed to be done. The family members, who were dealing with such matters for the first time, were inexperienced and did not know what to do. They were like ants on a hot pan, running around in circles.
Giving them something to do can avoid subsequent mistakes and constant phone calls.
As Su Yun was driving, she suddenly realized that she would never get stuck in traffic again. Every time she came to an intersection, the light was green. It was so smooth that even the sexy ghost and the ghost bride behind her were stunned.
After passing another intersection, Yan Gui said in astonishment: "No way, the curator's luck can actually be used here?"
The road became smoother and smoother, and there were no more red lights for Su Yun to answer. She waited until there were no cars on the road before answering casually: "Have you heard of it? People with good luck can encounter shooting stars even if they want stars at the moment. Sit tight, I'll drive faster, otherwise the customer will be anxious to death."
The destination was a new residential area. Following the guidance of the family members, we entered a suite. In the large house with four bedrooms and two living rooms, the only living creatures were a very young couple and a big dog.
Su Yun put on a mask, gloves and foot covers when she entered the room. She looked around and said, "I see that the person you registered is your grandmother, so where are your parents?"
The boy said with red eyes: "My parents and uncles are unwilling to support grandma, and I haven't notified them yet..."
The girl said: "My parents went back to their hometown after the Chinese New Year to take care of the farmland. They will probably be here the day after tomorrow."
This kind of thing is no longer surprising in the funeral home. Su Yun nodded and said, "Okay, then can we postpone the funeral for a day? Do we need everyone to be there?"
The two young men, who were one year younger than Su Yun, looked at each other, whispered a few words, and said yes. Then the boy asked, "Well... how many days can it be postponed? I, I still want to inform grandma's sons..."
"Are you worried that if you hold the funeral first, they will be unhappy later and ask you to give them money?" Su Yun asked calmly.
Perhaps because he said it too bluntly, the couple just stood there in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.
At this time, the ghost and the ghost bride had already entered the house to clean up the old man. Su Yun took a look and said directly: "As long as the body is placed in the freezer, it doesn't matter how long it is, but I don't recommend it. If people have a choice, the closest people must be their lovers, followed by their parents, and then their children. She has nothing left, only you. Do you want her to lie in the freezer for the last days she stays in the world?"
Faced with this kind of problem, unless you are mortal, you will know that the freezer is cold and you should avoid going there if possible.
The couple no longer hesitated and agreed with Su Yun to hold the funeral the day after tomorrow. The girl's parents would be able to attend, and as for whether the mother-in-law's son could come, that was up to it.
At Su Yun's reminder, the boy made many phone calls to his family. His father cursed him and hung up. No one heard what he said at all. When he called his mother, she said he had to ask his father and he did not dare to disobey his husband. As for the other uncles, they just said a few perfunctory words impatiently and hung up.
The last person I called was my grandfather, but the call didn’t go through.
After the phone call, the boy hugged his wife and cried, saying that his grandmother raised him, but in the end, his grandmother didn't live a good life for long, and he couldn't even call his grandmother's beloved son to see her off for the last time.
Su Yun pieced together the boy's childhood from between the lines. He was a left-behind child who lived with his grandmother and was looked down upon everywhere. His grandmother herself was also disliked by her sons. What's more, he was a burden. After raising the children with great difficulty, his grandmother got cancer.
The boy kept crying, and the girl started crying too. The couple hugged each other and cried. Su Yun's ears were numb from listening to them. There was nothing he could do, so he interrupted them and asked the girl to call her parents to ask if they should follow any procedures according to their customs.
Although these two young people knew nothing, they were very obedient. They would not cry all the time if they were given something to do. Su Yun sighed and went to the room to see how the sexy ghost and the ghost bride were doing.
The ghost was very skilled and had already changed the old man's clothes. She said, "The old man is quite clean, and the young man is just a little tearful, but he is well taken care of. We can go back and tidy up the funeral procession."
Su Yun nodded to show that he understood, and went out to ask the boys if they wanted to bring anything the old man liked.
Because men and women should avoid suspicion, the boy pointed to the suitcase beside the bed through the door and said, "I packed everything in advance according to what you said. In the suitcase are my grandma's clothes and her favorite things. The things in the plastic bag are to be burned together. There are clothes for my husband, my wife and our dog, as well as some tools from my hometown. Is that okay?"
"As long as it's something that can be burned, it's fine. As for what can't be burned, it depends on the size. It's best if it can be put into an urn or a grave." Su Yun wrote down everything.
The boy hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, if there is no room for the ashes, we can order a new urn."
Su Yun put away his phone and said, "Okay, then we'll get ready to leave. Do you want to come with us? You can accompany us. After we send you to the funeral home, you have to come back and continue to prepare for the funeral."
The couple agreed. They helped carry the stretcher away and couldn't help crying. They cried all the way, but when they arrived at the funeral home, they could hardly cry anymore. They didn't expect the journey to be so far.
At this time, the master chef and his family had already returned and were discussing the funeral details with another family in the morgue. Since the eloquent person was not there, the master chef, who was a bit taciturn, took over.
Su Yun saw it and asked Yan Gui to deal with the young couple, and she went over to help.
They were all common requests, like wanting to bring something for the elderly, or being able to watch the burning, and other small things.
The family members of these two families were all educated people and easy to talk to. After confirming the procedures, they left. Time was tight and there were many things that needed to be dealt with.
The funeral home became busy and everyone had something to do. In addition, they adhered to some ancient procedures, so incense, candles, and paper money were indispensable. When both families used them together, the amount was very large. Su Yun was usually too lazy to fold those things and would just be too lazy to write elegiac couplets.
When people are busy, they tend to ignore what is happening outside. Three days have passed since Su Yun finished taking care of two funerals. Now it is almost Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is time to debate whether to eat sweet or salty glutinous rice balls.
The internet was in an uproar. Su Yun lay in the yard and browsed the news for a long time before he saw the report about the Su family a few days ago.
Three days later, the heat has subsided, but there are still people who are persistent in fighting against the capitalists and seeking justice for the employees. They hope for a thorough investigation, but the official account of the Su family said that they have cooperated with the police investigation and everything is subject to the results of the investigation.
The police have not issued a specific announcement yet, so the online condemnation has not subsided.
In the Internet age, many things cannot be kept secret. Someone still filmed the on-site video. After the blockade, it is almost gone, but it is still circulating in some groups. It was forwarded to the second-generation gossip group.
The Su family has more than three children. When children from other branches saw this video, they started arguing in the group, saying that it was all due to the employees’ improper operations and what did it have to do with their Su family?
Besides, nothing happened for so many years, but it happened this year. It was clearly an accident.
There was a heated argument in the group. Some people, seeing the rebellion, laughed at it and said that not everyone with the surname Su is a member of the Su family. Just like Su Yun, she has left the Su family, but her father's surname is still Su. Does that mean Su Yun will take care of this matter just because her surname is Su?
Neither Su Yun nor Su Lin were as excited as they were.
Because they were arguing and searching the news, Su Yun took a long time to find the video. There was an ambulance and bloodstains. People around were saying that there was an accident in the factory, but they had all kinds of speculations.
Some people said that the machine cut off the person, and some people said that it might be a chemical leak. These are all speculations and there is no evidence.
Moreover, the filming of the video was stopped at the end. In fact, apart from knowing that some employees were injured, no one knew what happened. However, the bloodstains on the ground could not be faked.
At present, reporters are trying to stake out major hospitals in Bincheng in an attempt to obtain first-hand information.
Su Yun had been silent the whole time, but somehow the topic turned to Su Yun. They said that she was the director of the local funeral home, and based on their relationship, she had to bury the dead. What did she think about that? Or in other words, how would she deal with the Su family because of this matter?
The quarrel between Su Yun and Su Yun was all over the group. Later, Su Yun went abroad to avoid it, and the news gradually died down. Now Su Yun has returned to China, and it is said that she even went to the funeral home to make trouble. With Su Yun's pettiness, won't the Su family be killed over this matter?
When mentioning Su Yun, we have to talk about her profession. It just so happens that the disaster in the Su family seems to be really serious, because except for the second generation in the group who have no power in the Su family, none of the second generation who can enter the core have spoken out.
Even Su Yun didn't say anything, they were very surprised. They were also curious whether the people were dead or not, and if so, how many people were dead?
When Su Yun saw someone asking, he replied: I haven't received any orders. I don't ask about the Su family's affairs. It has nothing to do with me. I don't accept any orders from the Su family. The Bincheng Funeral Home next door is short of orders. Just contact them.
Every time Su Yun suddenly appeared, there would be a brief silence, and then after confirming that it was her, others would continue talking.
Some people started to make fun of the real and fake daughter, and some said that it was Su Yun who offended Su Yun. Who made Su Yun have such a bad attitude last time, but still insisted on provoking her? They have known each other for so many years, and everyone knows that Su Yun has a bad temper and a small heart.
Since Su Yun said he didn't care, he quickly turned his attention back to the Su family. Compared to Su Yun's trivial matters, the Su family's new gossip was more interesting.
But no matter how hard you try, there are no details. With just a few shaky and blurry videos, it's hard to convince people. Anything you say just sounds like guessing based on the pictures.
On the fourteenth day of the lunar year, Su Lin came again. Compared with the year before, Su Lin looked much older, and his originally jet-black hair was suddenly mixed with a few white hairs.
The sexy ghost originally wanted to stop him from entering, but Su Lin said that he had something to say about Su Yun, so the sexy ghost let him in.
It didn't snow or rain today, it was a rare good day, which shows that Bincheng is about to enter spring.
Su Yun made a pot of black tea today. After pouring a cup for Su Lin, he mixed the rest with milk, put it into a straw cup together with tapioca pearls, and drank it as milk tea.
Watching Su Yun's operation, Su Lin was silent for a while. He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said, "When you were learning the tea ceremony before, your teacher said that you were very good at brewing tea because you were in a stable state of mind. Even if the water was too hot, you would not react too much. You would just let it go for a while and then continue brewing."
After saying that, Su Lin looked up and saw Su Yun holding his big straw cup with both hands and sucking pearls.
"Is the purpose of learning tea ceremony to make your milk tea taste better?" Su Lin couldn't help asking. He felt that the tea in the cup was no different from the one Su Yun brewed before, but the expensive tea was used to mix milk tea!
Su Yun put down his cup and prepared to make the second pot: "What's so strange about this? People in the Tang Dynasty added pepper to their tea. The ancients had no fewer ways to make tea or milk tea than we do today. I just put more pearl tapioca pearls in it. What's wrong with that?"
They're all tea, why should we distinguish between high and low quality?
Su Lin got a headache every time he heard Su Yun's twisted ideas. He waved his hands and said, "Forget it. I can't argue with you. This time, I really have no choice... I kept rejecting you before. I think you must be very unhappy. Even if you see me coming to place an order, you will definitely not agree, so..."
After saying this, Su Lin fell silent again, his brows tightly furrowed, as if he had not made up his mind yet.
Su Yun was not in a hurry. He slowly brewed a new pot of tea. Excluding washing the tea leaves, this was the third round of water and it would take a little longer to brew.
After the tea was ready, Su Yunduan poured it into the large kettle beside him and prepared to add milk.
At this time, Su Lin still didn't speak until Su Yun handed him a new cup of milk tea.
Su Lin raised his head: "I don't drink this."
"Try it. Sweet things can relax your mind and give you some encouragement. What is so difficult to say?" Su Yun asked, picking up his milk tea cup.
The funeral home is very quiet. There are flowers, plants and trees here, but there is no noise at all. It feels like being in a place isolated from the world. No matter how complicated thoughts you have, they are slowly soothed in this extremely quiet environment.
Su Lin picked up the milk tea and drank it in one gulp. It was slightly sweet, but not as cloying as he had expected. Instead, it was refreshing and delicious with a hint of milk flavor.
Putting down the cup, Su Lin took a deep breath and said, "Su Yun, I know you died a long time ago."
This sentence had no effect on Su Yun. During the years when she had no news, no one could find her, so naturally they all said she was dead.
Those who know that Ji Weitong and Su Yiling found their daughter would not realize that this daughter and the fake daughter of the Su family are the same. There are so many people named Su Yun, and the Su family has two of them, so what's so strange about having one more?
Moreover, at that time, whenever Su Yun went out to meet people, she was wrapped in thick gauze or wore a bamboo hat. It was equivalent to Su Yun being a dead person in those years, so it was not surprising that rumors spread that she had died long ago.
After all, this is an era where people will spread the word that the person involved is dead if they have a disagreement.
Seeing that Su Yun was indifferent, Su Lin continued: "Really, because after you died, your liver was sent to the Su family."
After he finished speaking, Su Yun's eyes turned cold and he stared at Su Lin without saying a word.
Su Lin was startled by her eyes, but continued, "As for your existence, I only knew at first that you were not my sister, but I didn't understand what my parents meant when I was a child, so until I went to college, I thought you were an adopted daughter who brought good fortune."
Unlike what Su Yun had guessed before, Su Lin was trained intensively by the old man of the Su family, which resulted in him missing some time to learn useless extracurricular knowledge. Therefore, he did not understand Su Yun's positioning very well, and had no time to search for answers.
In Su Lin's memory, he has been studying since he can remember, and everyone told him that he must support the Su family and take the Su family further.
Years of study made Su Lin wish he had a younger brother. Even the youngest children can feel their parents’ preference for boys over girls, regardless of gender.
Su Lin really hoped that his mother's second child would be a younger brother, so that someone would share his responsibilities. At that time, he did not understand that responsibility, in a sense, represented power. If it was really a younger brother, he would probably fight with the other party until he was bloodied.
Then, a Taoist priest appeared in the Su family and said that the wife’s baby this time must be a daughter.
It was a daughter, and everyone was unhappy. They considered whether to keep the baby or to abort it while the baby was still young, since they already had Su Lin.
But the Taoist priest tried his best to persuade the Su couple to keep the child, and told them that the child would die in twenty years, but the death could be changed into fortune, provided that the child must be alive and born.
At that time, the Su family was under great pressure. They were facing transformation, market change, social progress, financial crisis... all kinds of problems. They had seen countless state-owned enterprises unable to survive. No matter how strong the Su family's foundation was, how long could they last?
Perhaps it was a desperate attempt to find a cure, so the Su couple accepted the Taoist's advice and began to do things according to the method he provided.
Su Lin naturally didn't understand all this. He couldn't accept having a useless sister, but he couldn't go against his parents' decision.
When the child was born, he brought back two younger sisters.
"Su Lin, remember, this is your real sister. When you meet her twenty years later, you should take good care of her. As for this one, she is the amulet of our family. When you are outside, you can treat her as your sister, but don't control her too much and let her grow up freely." Su's father repeatedly explained.
"What do you mean?" Su Lin was very young at that time and didn't understand.
Father Su patted Su Lin on the head and said, "Oh, what the master meant is... don't worry about her, but treat her as a sister, not a biological one."
The statement was too ambiguous, so Su Lin thought that Su Yun was adopted. Later, when Su Yun was two or three years older and could walk, he realized that the so-called amulet meant to let Su Yun's blessing nourish their family.
At that time, Su Lin had a very strange feeling about Su Yun, because since Su Yun came to their house, his father and grandfather were indeed much happier, but Su Yun was very strange.
Hearing Su Lin muttering about something that Su Yun had no memory of, she put down her water cup unhappily: "Why am I weird? I'm being treated unfairly in your house, okay? It's obvious that you're treating me like a tool."
Seeing that Su Yun was angry, Su Lin waved his hands hastily: "No, no, calm down. When you were a child, you were indeed very strange for a while, but you don't seem to remember it."
According to Su Lin, when Su Yun was between one and three years old, he would have one or two days every month when he would not laugh or cry and would just stare blankly at a corner.
Rich families seldom feed their children themselves, and the Su family is an old aristocratic family, so they would have a wet nurse. Later, this profession was abolished, so they switched to foreign milk and milk powder. They tried all kinds of new things. Anyway, as long as they bought the best, they wouldn't go wrong.
A nanny is needed to feed the child. Su Yun was taken care of by the nanny at the beginning, and occasionally the master came in person.
When Su Yun encountered such a situation for the first time, the nanny was scared away and refused to come again even after the price was raised. The only thing they could do was to pay more to keep her quiet.
Su Yun continued to have strange symptoms until the master came back. After examination, the master said that the direction Su Yun was staring at must be bad for her, so she was alert to that place, not daring to cry or laugh, staring at it intently and guarding against it, and asked Su's father to check.
After checking, it was discovered that a branch of the Su family lived in the small building in that direction. He had embezzled public funds during that period, and that money was approved by Su's father to the factory. Without the money, the subordinates would definitely not be willing to work. Would they then have to fight with the workers?
In these turbulent times, even capitalists have to think about how to maintain good relations with workers. The workers are not going on strike now, but they can choose other factories. If they leave, wouldn’t it be a waste of money for the rivals?
After this incident, Su's father confirmed that Su Yun was really useful, so he found a new nanny and asked her to keep an eye on Su Yun's movements at all times.
But Su Yun's alert time is not fixed, it is random, and it only occurs once a month or so.
Su Lin didn't know the details at first. His father told him all of them later. At first he just thought Su Yun was very strange. She didn't cry or make a fuss. She didn't act like a living child at all. Compared to other children, she was as calm as if she hadn't drunk Meng Po soup.
"That's it. I have thought you were weird since I was a child. But after you died, that master came back and talked about your fate. He may have deliberately cultivated it, but it was indeed destined by heaven that you grew up like this." Su Lin explained briefly.
That master was the deceased Ziyuan. I didn’t expect that I could still hear about his past. Life and death is really a very interesting thing.
Su Lin covered his head tiredly: "When I went to university and joined the company, my father told me about you in detail, and then I knew the truth. But at that time you were almost twenty years old, and the Su family treated you well, so you had everything you deserved..."
Before he finished speaking, Su Yun interrupted, "But I want to die for Su Yun when I'm 20 years old. If you don't support me for these 20 years, I can live a better life."
Unexpectedly, Su Lin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, the master only made a summary prediction of the whole thing, which does not mean that it is the complete cause and effect. It's just that all of us, including the master himself, believed in this prediction until your liver was sent to the Su family."
That was four months after Su Yun's graduation ceremony. Su Yun and Su Yun were born on the same day of the same month of the same year. They could graduate from college on the same day. The Su family had already prepared for Su Yun's death, but they had always been thinking about how to transfer Su Yun's fate to Su Yun in order to maintain the longevity of the Su family.
The Su family and Mr. Ziyuan both have their own selfish desires. Their selfishness prevents them from taking action on Su Yun's fate immediately, for fear that their fate will dissipate if they make a mistake. The Su family wants his fortune, and Mr. Ziyuan wants Su Yun's body and fate, as long as they can be separated.
The prophecy of death kept coming day after day, and the Su family and Mr. Ziyuan both thought that death had been delayed and did not need to be postponed every day.
As a result, Su Yun disappeared.
Besides Ji Weitong and Su Yiling, the Su family was the first to discover Su Yun's disappearance. When they were about to look for Master Ziyuan, they discovered that Master Ziyuan was also missing.
It was the first time that Su Lin saw his father so sad and worried as if the sky was about to fall.
No one knew about Su Yun's matter, so Su Yun didn't know. When she heard that Su Yun was missing, she was so happy that she bought two more bags.
Almost ten days later, Monk Ziyuan came back and said there was no need to wait anymore, Su Yun was dead, no one should ask how or why he died. In short, they had prepared for twenty years, but to no avail.
This means that the Su family, which has borrowed Su Yun's fortune for twenty years, has to find a new way, otherwise it will fail under the impact of the new market.
Of course, if Su Lin can stand up, he can naturally maintain the Su family, but Su's father and the old man of the Su family have both made comments - Su Lin is good at everything, but everything is a little bit lacking. As long as there is one thing that is extremely outstanding, it is fine even if the others are slightly lacking.
A person without strengths is mediocre. Indifference, cruelty, kindness... Among each quality, at least one must be achieved to the extreme from birth. Unfortunately, Su Lin is indifferent but not cold enough, decisive but not cruel enough, soft-hearted but not kind, everything is just a little bit short.
This little bit will always need something else to complete it.
If Su Lin had the same extreme calmness as Su Yun, he would not have to continue pursuing the metaphysics of living in the present without a future.
Su Lin actually knew his own problems, but he was born like this and it was hard to change his nature. He acquiesced to the other plan planned by his father and grandfather. Each of them acquiesced that Su Yun was dead and no longer useful.
As a result, at the end of the year, there was a sudden rainstorm, and the excellent drainage system of the Su family manor could not control the water level. Almost the entire first floor was flooded, as if a sudden flood had occurred.
At this moment, the power suddenly went out in the manor, and then a dark figure came in in the rain holding a wooden box. The butler shouted at him, but was suddenly thrown out, hit the wall and fainted on the ground.
Everyone in the hall was stunned. The Su family couple leaned against each other, their eyes wide open as if they were about to pop out, and their faces were shaking. Su Lin stood in front of his parents. Although all the muscles in his body were shaking, he still suppressed his fear and asked, "Who are you?"
"The person who gives you gifts." The voices came from all directions. I couldn't tell whether they were men or women, young or old. It was very strange. I forgot the voice as soon as I heard it, and only remembered the content.
Without waiting for the Su family to speak, the black shadow slowly opened the box in his hand, and a faint green light came out from it, as if it was breathing.
The box was slowly brought to the Su family. They could clearly see a complete liver inside that was glowing with a faint green light. It seemed to be alive, moving and emitting bursts of hot air.
Su Lin was so frightened that his legs went weak and he almost knelt down. Fortunately, his father supported him. But he couldn't speak. He had never seen such a complete, living liver that looked like it was taken from a living person in his life. It was not like goose liver. It was a special kind of liver that would give humans goose bumps when they saw it.
Father Su was still knowledgeable. He asked in a deep voice: "This is a human liver. What are you going to do?"
The black shadow shook his head gently: "No, no, no, this is Su Yun's liver. Su Yun is not a human."
