Chapter 351 Washboard
Kong Xiuwan hadn't cried so profusely in many years. It should be said that she hadn't cried much since she sent her son away, because she knew that crying was useless and tears would only make her sadder and more vulnerable. She had parents in poor health above her and a son she felt guilty towards below her, so she couldn't be weak.
Later, as the years passed, she gradually forgot the taste of tears, but unexpectedly today she burst into tears in front of Su Wenshan's mother. However, after crying, she felt much better.
"Life is short," An Ruijin looked at Kong Xiuwan with a look of pity. She added, "Of course I hope you can forgive us and get back together with Wenshan. But what I hope more is that you can be happy. We really owe you a lot."
Kong Xiuwan wiped her tears, took a deep breath and said, "You are really good at persuading people."
"I really want to treat you like my own daughter." An Ruijin held Kong Xiuwan's hand and sighed heavily, "If it weren't for what happened back then, we would definitely get along like real mother and daughter."
Kong Xiuwan pulled her hand away and wiped her tears again. "Never mind what happens. I have to thank you for what you said to me today. Indeed, I have to make myself happy first."
"You're right to think so." An Ruijin decided to go back and tell Su Wenshan that he would go find Xiuwan and let her vent her anger.
Kong Xiuwan stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Okay." An Ruijin stood up and followed her out. Gu Siqing and the others had been paying attention to the movements in the main hall. When they saw both of them coming out, they hurried out.
Kong Xiuwan said she was leaving. Seeing her red eyes, Gu Siqing obviously had been crying, and followed her with some worry. The two of them walked quietly to the entrance of the alley. Kong Xiuwan suddenly said, "Xiao Si, what would you do if you were me?"
Her question was nonsensical, but Gu Siqing understood what she meant. After a moment's thought, she said, "If I follow my true heart, if I still have feelings for him, I'll let go of everything that happened before. If he's no longer in my heart, then we'll just have no contact until we die."
Kong Xiuwan smiled, then touched Gu Siqing's head and said, "What if I'm angry?"
"If you are angry, just let it out! Do whatever you want to feel comfortable with." Gu Siqing said.
"Okay, I understand. You can go back now." Kong Xiuwan smiled easily this time, and Gu Siqing felt relieved. She said, "Actually, beating someone up is quite satisfying. Why don't you try it?"
Kong Xiuwan was amused by her quirky appearance and laughed out loud, "Okay, I'll try."
"good."
Gu Siqing went home without any psychological burden, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with instigating Han Zhengping's biological mother to beat his biological father.
When they got home, Mrs. Xia and An Ruijin were about to leave, so Gu Siqing and Wang Yueju saw them off to the door. After getting in the car, An Ruijin sighed heavily, "I didn't expect to run into Xiuwan today."
Old Lady Xia knew about the Su family's affairs and comforted her: "I think Xiuwan is a reasonable child. I guess she hasn't changed her mind yet."
"It's normal for her to feel resentful and resentful," An Ruijin said. "I just feel sad when I see other families happy and together while my own family is so lonely."
"Every family has its own problems. It will get better slowly." Old Mrs. Xia advised again.
"I just hope Xiuwan and Wenshan can reconcile, and Zhengping can call me grandma." An Ruijin sighed again, and could only blame the bad times in those years.
When An Ruijin returned home, she happened to run into Su Wenshan who was about to leave. She quickly grabbed him and said, "Don't do anything now. Go find Xiuwan and let her vent her anger."
Strike while the iron is hot.
Su Wenshan was confused by what he said, "Have you seen Xiuwan?"
"Yes, I saw her at Gu's house. I talked to her a lot." An Ruijin repeated what he had said to Kong Xiuwan, then said, "Go find her quickly and let her vent her anger on you. She'll feel better once she does."
Su Wenshan couldn't help but hug his mother, feeling that she was a great help. Then he quickly walked to the car and was about to go find Kong Xiuwan. An Ruijin stopped him and said, "Bring a washboard."
Su Wenshan looked confused, "Why bring a washboard?"
An Ruijin looked disgusted. No wonder he hadn't managed to coax his wife home after so long. She said, "Kneel!"
Su Wenshan looked embarrassed. He was probably the first person my mother had taught him to kneel on a washboard. He replied with a vague response and drove off. He drove slowly, keeping an eye out for places selling washboards. After a long while without seeing any, he arrived at Guangming Supermarket.
He parked his car and went into the supermarket. He looked around but couldn't find a washboard. He approached a clerk and asked, "Do you have a washboard?"
"Yes, I'll take you there." The clerk smiled and led him there. He was just about to quietly buy something and leave when he ran into Gu Jianguo. Although the two were not close friends, they were acquaintances, so naturally they had to say hello.
When Gu Jianguo heard that he wanted to buy a washboard, he casually asked, "Why do you want to buy a washboard, Mr. Su?"
Su Wenshan was also good at pretending. He said calmly, "The nanny at home said the washboard was broken and asked me to buy a new one."
Although Gu Jianguo was puzzled as to how the Su family's nanny could be so bold as to order the master around, he didn't think much about it. He followed him to choose a washboard that looked particularly sturdy, and then sent her to the door.
Su Wenshan threw the washboard in the back seat and drove to Kong Xiuwan's hotel. On the way, he thought to himself that he had bad luck today. He ran into someone he knew even though he was buying a washboard. But he didn't think Gu Jianguo would associate his purchase of a washboard with his kneeling on it, right?
Arriving at the hotel, he went straight upstairs to the door of Kong Xiuwan's room. They had returned to the country together, and he had been keeping an eye on Kong Xiuwan's whereabouts, so he naturally knew where she lived.
He held the washboard in one hand, looked around, and when he saw someone coming out of the room, he immediately placed the washboard between his body and the wall. He raised his hand to knock on the door only after the person left.
Kong Xiuwan had just returned and had just changed into some light clothes. When she heard a knock on the door, she went to open it. As soon as the door opened a crack, Su Wenshan squeezed in. He then closed the door, slammed the washboard in front of Kong Xiuwan, and knelt down with a thud.
