Chapter 285: Denial
"Okay, Mother will find a way."
"As long as it's something Xian'er likes, I will definitely find a way to help you get it."
Xu Ya lowered her head, her gaze sticky and deep.
It was worth her trying so hard to get her parents and ancestors to help her get married, as this finally allowed her to marry into the Li family.
She has already obtained wealth and glory.
What she had to do next was to help her daughter clear all obstacles in front of her.
This includes...
Xu Ya's eyes suddenly darkened.
This of course included the daughter left behind by her short-lived cousin.
Xu Ya lowered her head to straighten her clothes while muttering in her heart, "Cousin, don't blame me for being cruel."
"Who told you to leave nothing behind but a daughter? If it was a son, I would have tried my best to please him."
It happened to be a daughter.
"With you, the legitimate daughter of the original wife, here, who can see Xian'er's position?"
"Cousin, you yourself have children, so you must know that if a mother cares about her children, she will do anything."
"Don't blame me..."
As Xu Ya was thinking this, her fingers actually pinched into her palm without her noticing.
Don't blame her.
The truth is, a mother will always try her best to do everything she can to protect her children.
"Cousin, whether you hate me or blame me, a hundred years from now, on the road to the underworld, I will personally make amends to you. You can beat me or scold me at that time, and I will have no complaints."
"Even if you ask me to work like a slave for you to make amends, I am willing to do it."
If she suffers, that's fine.
But there is a fairy beside her.
Xian'er can't go down her old path.
She had owed Xian'er too much in the past, and now she would only try to give her daughter everything she could.
"Okay, Xian'er, let's go and see what your father wants us to do so late at night."
Xu Xian'er was still a little resentful at being woken up so late.
But she also knew in her heart that Li Sui was not her biological father.
So she didn't dare to act too pretentiously. After acting coquettishly for a few words, she followed her mother to the flower hall.
The flower hall is used to entertain guests.
What kind of guest comes to someone else's house so late at night?
Xu Xian'er couldn't understand this.
When she arrived at the flower hall, she saw that there was no one there except Li Sui and Jiaojiao. Her little face instantly became tense.
Xu Ya didn't expect that Li Sui would specially ask someone to wake her up in the middle of the night just to call her to the flower hall.
Fortunately, she thought that some distinguished guest had arrived!
It’s okay to complain in your heart.
Xu Ya's face showed no sign of it.
She even bowed with a smile and said to Li Sui and his daughter, "It's so late. When did the general ask me to come over?"
"But what's wrong with Jiaojiao?"
Xu Ya was a little surprised that Jiaojiao would stay with Li Sui.
But she was not worried at all that Jiaojiao would tell Li Sui about her while she was away.
Where Li Sui couldn't see, she had already tamed Jiaojiao into what she wanted.
Jiaojiao was now extremely terrified, fearing that Li Sui would dislike her even more. How could it be possible that she would say some specious words to accuse Li Sui of her crimes when she knew that it would anger her?
Li Sui looked at her slowly.
He didn't call out, just looked at her quietly.
Xu Ya's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She maintained her knees bent, not daring to stand up or move around.
Instead, Xu Xian'er ran to Li Sui anxiously and pushed his arm.
"Dad, why don't you tell Mom to get up? Mom is so tired!"
"Dad, can you please wake up Mom?"
Li Sui didn't say anything, but Jiaojiao suddenly said angrily, "Shut up!"
Jiaojiao frowned and glared at Xu Xian'er like a kitten with its fur standing on end, her face tightly stern. "This is my daddy, not your daddy. You can't call me that!"
She looked at Xu Xian'er and repeated, "Did you hear me? You can't call me daddy like that."
"Dad is my dad, not yours!"
No wonder Jiaojiao suddenly became so confident.
When the people below went to invite Xu Ya and Xu Xian'er, Li Sui kept telling Jiaojiao over and over again that he was only her father, not anyone else's father.
"Dad said that he will only have me as his child in this life, so you can't call him that. He's only my dad, not yours!"
Jiaojiao was very confident and had the support of the adults, and her little tail was almost raised to the sky.
She never liked her cousin Xian'er.
After cousin Xian'er came, she always had various excuses to borrow things from her, either a fun puppet or a beautiful piece of jewelry.
Once you borrow it, you won’t return it.
She told her grandmother about it, and her grandmother said that she had a lot of beautiful puppets and jewelry, and it would be no problem to give them to Cousin Xian'er.
If she continued to ask for it, cousin Xian'er would cry as if she had bullied her.
Jiaojiao really hates her.
Sure enough, now Xu Xianer heard Jiaojiao say this.
She immediately shrank her neck and showed a tearful expression.
She raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face, looked at Jiaojiao with a sob, and then looked at Li Sui with a wronged look.
“Father…”
"I……"
Xu Xian'er cried and sobbed aggrievedly, "Can't I call you daddy? But my mother has already married you, and I also regard you as my daddy from the bottom of my heart..."
Xu Ya just cried when she heard this, silently hugging her daughter and crying.
She choked and said helplessly: "What did I do wrong to make Jiaojiao unhappy?"
She glanced at Jiaojiao cautiously, "Jiaojiao, I know you're unhappy because I'm your stepmother, but...but your sister Xian'er is innocent."
"If you have any anger, just come to me. Don't take it out on your sister Xian'er. She's already very pitiful..."
"You are not pitiful!" Jiaojiao snorted and glared at them angrily. At first, she didn't know how bad these two people were, but she just felt uncomfortable when getting along with them.
It was not until later that A'niang broke down the truth and explained it to her.
She then realized that these two people were so terribly bad!
"You're trying to sow discord in front of me, saying that Dad doesn't like me. But Dad doesn't dislike me. I'm obviously the one he loves the most!"
They not only sow discord in front of themselves.
He also tried to sow discord in front of his father.
Fairy sister has calculated it all just now!
"You're trying to sow discord between me and my father, saying I'm not seeing him because I hate him."
"No! You said that if I went near Father, Father would be even more unhappy and sad. That's not why I don't want to see Father."
After her mother passed away, the person she missed the most was her father.
She didn't want to see her father.
Xu Ya bit her lip, still looking like she was about to cry.
She looked at Li Sui with a sorrowful expression and a helpless look, choking with sobs, "General, I don't understand what Jiaojiao is saying. When have I ever said such a thing?"
"Jiaojiao is my cousin's daughter. I treat her like my own daughter. I love her so much, how could I do anything to hurt her?"
"I don't know what I did wrong to make Jiaojiao think this way about me. If Jiaojiao is really angry, why not slap me a few times to vent her anger?"
As she spoke, she closed her eyes and looked at Jiaojiao with a look of despair.
