Chapter 266 Refusal
The Shao family...
No wonder!
I heard Li Guixiang say that the family doted on their daughter.
Looking back now, it seems that this was more than just loving.
They practically doted on Shao Ziyu, showering her with love and affection, even spoiling her.
All of this should have belonged to me!
Because of Xu Daqiang and Li Guixiang, she went from being a pampered young lady who should have grown up in luxury to a pitiful little girl who suffered abuse and even a full meal was a luxury.
Originally, all of this was just in Xu Yirou's imagination.
She never experienced her parents' love, so even the love she imagined was nothing more than being able to eat when she was hungry, having warm clothes when she was cold, and not being beaten at the drop of a hat.
No need to worry about being bought off as a wife for 500 yuan at any time, regardless of whether the person paying is tall or short, fat or thin, an old man or a fool...
However, after actually getting to know the Shao family...
Even in that brief moment, she finally understood.
It turns out that being truly loved by your family means not only having everything you need materially, but also being absolutely rich in spirit.
You can do whatever you want without any worries, and no matter what trouble you get into, your family will always be there to protect you.
Shao Ziyu, just from the name, Yu means beautiful jade.
Just hearing this name, one can imagine the blessings and love the parents who named their child have for them.
And Shao Ziyu, that should have been her name!
Fate is so cruel...
Even though she had doubts, Xu Yirou remained calm.
This calmness is a calmness that she was forced to get used to and had to possess because of her experiences in both her past and present lives.
After taking a deep breath, she looked up at Su Xiangwan and said with a smile, "Let's not look for her anymore! Although I am the biological daughter of my parents whom I never met, I was secretly switched at birth. This means that the other party didn't know that the child they raised with their own hands wasn't their biological child. Therefore, the person who took my life must have enjoyed their wholehearted love. In that case, even if I appeared now, what difference would it make?"
Xu Yirou gave a bitter smile and said, "Feelings are something you can't always control. On one hand, there's the adopted daughter you've devoted over twenty years of your life to, and on the other hand, there's your biological daughter you've never met and have no feelings for. Anyone would be conflicted in this situation! So, let's just not look for her anymore!"
"As for me, I'm doing very well now. I'm about to marry Brother Wu, and we'll have our own little family and children. I'm about to have my own happy life! I'm really looking forward to being with Brother Wu, so I don't want any accidents to happen and disrupt the peaceful life I've finally found."
After listening to Xu Yirou's words, Su Xiangwan sighed softly, nodded, and said, "Yirou, what you said makes sense. Indeed, feelings are something that are most beyond our control. I really don't understand this as well as you do."
Fortunately, she listened to her second brother's advice and asked Xu Yirou first.
Otherwise, it would truly be a case of good intentions leading to bad results.
“Sister-in-law, I don’t see things clearly either, it’s just that… I’m too timid!” Xu Yirou’s eyes were somewhat distant.
Yes, timid.
She's been through so much.
Betrayals experienced in past and present lives.
Later, although she married Gu Yanxiao and became the enviable wife of a military commander, it was all just an illusion.
I lived and died without ever having a home of my own.
In this life, she is finally getting married and can have a family that truly belongs to her.
She really, really didn't want any more changes.
“Cowardly?” Su Xiangwan was taken aback. This Xu Yirou was a famous female entrepreneur in her previous life! The word “cowardly” seemed completely unrelated to her!
"Yes, my heart is actually very small; all I want is a home of my own. Now Brother Wu is going to give me a home, and I have what I want. As for the rest, I'll leave it to fate!"
Even long after Xu Yirou left, her words still echoed in Su Xiangwan's mind.
The more Su Xiangwan thought about it, the more she felt sorry for Xu Yirou.
I couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the original author. Why couldn't they just write a sweet and romantic novel? Why did they have to torture the female lead like this?
Xu Yirou in the original novel is truly pitiful!
All she wanted was a home, but in the original story, it seems she never had a home of her own until her death!
fortunately!
Fortunately, I transmigrated into this world, although I tried my best to avoid the characters from the original work and didn't want to interfere with their lives.
However, her appearance, like the wings of a butterfly, still influenced the course of everything.
However, as things stand now, these developments are all moving in a positive direction.
That's perfect!
"Mother……"
Just then, Nian Nian's crisp and tender voice came.
It was Gu's mother who brought Niannian over.
After seeing Niannian walk towards Su Xiangwan, Gu's mother went into the house.
It was already lunchtime, and clearly, Gu's mother had come to call us for dinner.
"Oh! Niannian, what brings you here?" Su Xiangwan instinctively reached out to hug her son when she saw him.
Unexpectedly, Niannian shook her head, refusing her hug, and said, "Daddy said that Niannian is a big girl now, and can't let Mommy hug her anymore, otherwise Mommy will get tired..."
This was a promise he made to his father.
Dad said that if he behaves well, he'll take him to play with guns later.
Playing with real guns!
Every year, she blinks her eyes, her heart filled with anticipation.
Hearing him say that, Su Xiangwan glanced at Nian Nian's sturdy little body and gave up on the idea.
Although I said I could carry him, it's actually quite a struggle to lift this little guy.
Thinking about it, she turned around, took Niannian's hand, and walked with him towards her home.
The wall between the two houses hadn't been opened yet, and Su Xiangwan, holding Niannian's hand, slowly strolled from Su Xiangbei's garden towards her own.
Before long, Su Xiangbei and the others followed behind.
When they entered the restaurant, Aunt Liu and the others had already served the food.
Although Li Ma and the others are with Su Xiangbei, they still prefer to eat here.
On the one hand, the food here uses spiritual spring water from Su Xiangwan's space, which is good for their health if consumed long-term.
On the other hand, it's also more lively with more people.
"Wife, the fish is good today, have a taste..." Gu Yanxiao picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and put it into Su Xiangwan's bowl.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Su Xiangwan put the food in her mouth, a feeling of nausea welled up in her throat...
