After dinner, Ye Beiping took Su Xinyi out for a walk.
As the two strolled into the Wen'er New Village residential area, Su Xinyi suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Ye Beiping asked with concern, "Wife, what's wrong?"
"How about..." Su Xinyi hesitated for a long time before finally mustering up the courage to say, "How about you go and tell them, and I'll wait for you downstairs."
"Um?"
Ye Beiping didn't quite understand and asked, "Why?"
Wouldn't it be best if Su Xinyi were to deliver this message?
Why did Su Xinyi back down when they got downstairs?
Facing Ye Beiping, Su Xinyi felt a pang of guilt. Whether in Pingba Village or back in Hangzhou, she always felt that the man before her was carrying a burden he shouldn't have to bear.
And she is the one who bears all this blame.
“I… don’t really want to see my mom, I’m afraid…” Su Xinyi took two deep breaths and still expressed her concerns: “I’m afraid that this time it’s arranged for my mom to meet Su Ze, and if she asks you to bail her out again, you won’t be able to refuse.”
She had always known that sometimes she simply couldn't refuse her parents' requests. But this time was different; with such a serious incident, Su Xinyi was afraid.
She used to be all alone, but now she has a husband and a father.
If saving Su Ze really causes Ye Beiping to get into trouble, I'm afraid I'll truly deserve to die. If my mother-in-law loses her son, my sister-in-law loses her brother, and even my child loses his father, I'm afraid I'll be guilty even if I die.
Ye Beiping understood Su Xinyi's meaning, smiled slightly, and gently stroked the cheek of the little woman in front of him, reassuring her gently: "Don't worry, this time I will definitely be hard-hearted and will not agree easily."
"Besides, I don't have that much ability, do I?"
Hearing this, Su Xinyi felt a little more at ease.
But seeing the stairwell in front of her, she still felt a little apprehensive. Before, she couldn't escape; she was forced to go to Ye Beiping for help.
Finally, the two stopped downstairs for three minutes before going upstairs together at Ye Beiping's urging.
Knock knock knock!
The knocking sounded, and Su Xinyi's heart pounded in unison.
Creak!
The door opened, and Su Xinwan was seen. The girl's previously pursed lips instantly curled into a smile.
"Sister, brother-in-law." Su Xinwan's eyes lit up when she saw the two of them.
During this time, she had been trying to go see her sister, but her parents stopped her, refusing to let her go no matter what they said.
She was overjoyed to see her sister and brother-in-law visiting.
Because of Su Ze's situation, Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua barely spoke to each other at home, and the somber atmosphere carried a hint of tension.
quarrel!
fight!
Su Xinwan watched the scene countless times in just a few days, each time hiding in her room and not daring to come out, for fear that the war would spread to her.
Min Yuehua even had a feeling that if selling her could save Su Ze, she would not hesitate to sell her.
"Xinwan." Ye Beiping smiled slightly.
Su Xinyi forced a smile. It wasn't that she didn't miss her sister, but rather that she was completely disheartened by the prospect of facing Min Yuehua.
"Come in quickly, come in quickly." Su Xinwan was completely oblivious to her sister's expression and excitedly invited the young couple into the house.
Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua in the living room also realized what was happening and immediately got up.
When they saw Ye Beiping and Su Xinyi walking in hand in hand, the elderly couple smiled.
Perhaps Su Qingwen was genuinely happy, after all, it had been a long time since he had seen his daughter and son-in-law.
Min Yuehua's concern wasn't about not seeing her daughter smile for so long, but rather that the seven days Ye Beiping had promised were almost up.
She was just wondering whether she should go ask Ye Beiping tomorrow. If Su Qingwen hadn't been keeping her in check these past few days, she probably would have gone to ask him already.
Upon seeing Ye Beiping arrive today, Min Yuehua immediately thought that Ye Beiping must have brought good news.
"Beiping, Xinyi." Su Qingwen took two steps closer, looked at Su Xinyi's protruding belly, and immediately thought of something: "Quick, sit down, sit down. Xinyi, if you have something to say, just say so. Why did you come all the way here? You're pregnant now, you need to be careful."
"It's alright." Su Xinyi smiled when she saw her father's cautious manner, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
When she looked at her mother, Min Yuehua, beside her, her smile slowly turned awkward.
Because now she doesn't know how to face her mother. She wants to be close to her, but her actions and the way she forces herself to be close to her really make it impossible for her to be close to her.
No child wants to be away from their parents.
Min Yuehua noticed Su Xinyi's expression and felt slightly embarrassed herself. But she couldn't lose her temper in front of Ye Beiping, because all her hopes now rested on this son-in-law she had always looked down on.
As the two sat down, Su Qingwen brought over a glass of water.
"Beiping, Xinyi, is there something you need?" Su Qingwen asked, putting down his water glass and sitting down on the sofa next to him.
Ye Beiping glanced at the elderly couple and felt Su Xinyi tighten her grip on his hand before speaking: "Dad, Mom, I came here this time to talk to you about Su Ze."
He had also heard about Su Ze's specific situation from Zhou Xiaomei.
It's complicated, and it involves a lot of people.
It seems that Su Ze won't be out anytime soon, and of course, he won't be sentenced to a heavy sentence. If the elderly couple can persuade Su Ze to plead guilty, they might be able to get lenient treatment and reduce his punishment.
