"Madam, please go back. We know you wish to spend your life with the Buddha and the lamp. We will not disturb you. Please feel free to tell us if you need anything."
Mo Yan said that since she liked spending so much time with the Buddhist scriptures and lamps, she might as well stay with her for sixteen years. They could talk about it after sixteen years. These sixteen years would be the time for Yu Die to face everything on her own.
"No, I won't... Let me out, let me out!"
She tried desperately to run away, but the maids and servants stopped her and pushed her back.
"Madam, you'd better think carefully about whether you want to do this. You need to know one thing: once you leave, you will no longer be the Madam of the Xiao family, nor the eldest daughter of the Xu family."
The person who said this was sent by the Xu family. In order to prevent Xu Youran from implicating the Xu family, they sent someone over overnight so that Xu Youran would understand what kind of situation she was in.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if I leave here, I am still the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and I can go back to the Xu family."
The old woman seemed oblivious to Xu Youran's sadness and grief, coldly telling her a fact—a fact she had never dared to face alone.
“Miss, the master has already said that if you are not a member of the Xiao family, then you are not a member of the Xu family either. If you do not obey, then the master will sever all ties with you from now on and will never care about your life or death again.”
Xu Youran was stunned. She wanted to say it was impossible, but her father had made his intentions clear that day, and it seemed that no matter what she did now, it would be useless.
This caused her great pain; had her father abandoned her?
She had no choice but to go back.
They eat vegetarian food every day and chant Buddhist scriptures daily.
She didn't calm down, no!
Each time, she felt more frustrated and angry; she wanted to go out, she wanted to leave the house!
"Let me out. I don't like the Buddhist temple at all. I don't like it at all."
I want to wear beautiful clothes, I want to eat delicious food, let me out.
At first, they would make a fuss, but gradually they lost the energy to do so.
Even vegetables that I find repulsive, I can force myself to eat slowly.
Xiao Yudie arrived before her wedding.
At this moment, Xu Youran felt like she was going crazy.
Seeing Xu Youran dressed so elegantly, he sneered, "Oh my, who is this? Isn't this the eldest daughter of the Xiao family?"
"I heard you married a prince? Don't you even know if you're qualified? So what if you have a grand bridal procession? Do you think the royal family won't be wary?"
Xiao Yudie no longer cares about these things; she knows very well that her mother is trying to sow discord.
"No matter what you say, Mother, I will not be affected by it anymore."
The reason I've come here today is because my daughter is getting married and I wanted to say goodbye to my mother.
"My mother feels no guilt towards you, and has no empathy whatsoever."
No one knows the pain of those past years.
Xiao Yudie is not someone who can forgive; even coming here only allows her to let go of her own sins.
Grandmother was right; one should look forward.
But she couldn't abandon this mother.
So, Mom will be alright.
She was resentful, but after a few years, her mother felt she couldn't live like this anymore.
"Mother, do you feel that you really can't go on living like this?"
Life is unbearable; every day is the same, the food is awful, practically devoid of any oil or fat.
A flicker of emotion crossed Xu Youran's eyes, and she quickly looked over.
"These are all the things that your daughter went through. She even had to endure the schemes of that mother and daughter, be beaten by them, be scolded by them, be made to stand as punishment, and be punished. You didn't experience any of this."
You are simply living the life you once longed for in your own backyard.
Didn't you say you'd seen through the illusions of the world? Isn't this the best life you've ever lived?
Xu Youran: "..."
"What's so good about this? You can't eat or sleep well."
You can live like this because you've never experienced a better life, but I'm different. I grew up in luxury, how could I possibly live like this?
Yu Die laughed immediately, "So you think this kind of life is very hard? Then why have you been able to watch me live like this for so many years?"
If you don't have the ability to change all of this, maybe I won't feel anything, but you happen to be able to change it, and you even live a good life, so why can you watch me suffer so much?
Mother, don't worry, your daughter will definitely send someone to take care of you in the future.
Xu Youran: "..."
"Don't you feel any remorse watching your mother suffer like this?"
No way.
Xu Youran: "..."
The road ahead is destined to be full of thorns. She will overcome all obstacles to spend her life with the one she loves. She will not be overly kind, nor will she look back. She will keep moving forward.
Behind her were her grandmother and the entire Shaw family.
Later, Yu Die and her husband experienced betrayal and pain, and also helped her husband's elder brother, the emperor, to stabilize the court. In the end, they returned to the place where their grandmother had once taught them martial arts and retired to the countryside.
Throughout her life's ups and downs, she always remembered that it was her grandmother who taught her how to face life and how to protect herself.
Xu Youran watched Yu Die leave.
I heard that on the day of the wedding, the procession stretched for miles in red, the wedding was very grand, the emperor gave many rewards, and even the retired emperor attended.
Xu Youran really wanted to go out, but there was more meat in the food that day.
