Chapter 115 Jade Bracelet
Yu Zeying saw Mu Xiliang holding the little rabbit and staring at the bumpy ground expressionlessly through the fence wall, "Ah Xi!"
Mu Xiliang raised his head suddenly when he heard his voice. The layers of ice accumulated in his fox eyes were about to break. He staggered and walked towards him quickly.
Yu Zeying grabbed his shoulders with a lingering fear and stared at him, his eyes dark and scary, "My dad didn't say anything, did he? He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
Mu Xiliang pursed his swollen red lips and said, "No, he just asked who I was, and then..."
Before Mu Xiliang finished speaking, the sound of a table falling came from the room. Yu Zeying's calm brows twisted instantly, "Ah Xi...you and Xueqiu stay outside and don't come in."
Mu Xiliang grabbed his wrist and said, "Speak properly..."
Yu Zeying clenched his fists and nodded, then strode into the house. From the living room to the narrow, gray corridor, chairs, tables, and cabinets were all over the floor. Yu Zeying's face became more and more creepy, and he picked them up as he walked.
When Xiao Si heard the sound, he walked out of the room with untidy steps. His hair was untidy and he hadn't taken care of himself for a long time, making him look like a sloppy homeless man. Yu Zeying felt a sharp pain in his heart and shivered.
Xiao Si staggered in front of him, his eyes bloodshot, and asked him in a daze, "Where is your grandma's jade bracelet?"
Yu Zeying raised the corner of his mouth in self-mockery, "I thought you came back for... I don't know, I have never seen any jade bracelets..."
Xiao Si's last bit of mental support also collapsed, and he muttered to himself, "How is it possible? How is it possible that I haven't seen it before... The last person your grandma saw was you!"
Yu Yaodong and Yu Zehui were executed on the same day. Yu Jun actively confessed as soon as she entered the court. The crimes she committed were not as bad as those of Yu Yaodong and Yu Zehui, but they were also unforgivable. She was sentenced to death with a one-year reprieve. Xiao Si gave everything he had and hired a lawyer to appeal twice, but was rejected by the court both times.
Even after he had spent all the money from selling the land, he still did not give up. His family had been considered an old landlord in the early years, but they fell into decline later on. When he married Yu Jun, his mother gave Yu Jun a pair of jade bracelets, but Yu Jun despised them and never wore them for even a single day, and returned them when they divorced.
Yu Zeying lifted up the carved cabinet that was rotten by insects. "It was me, but she didn't tell me about the jade bracelet. My mother has been sentenced to death. She was suspended for one year, but it can't change. Don't appeal again, don't be a hateful person anymore..."
“Bang!”
Xiao Si slapped him tremblingly, and yelled irrationally, "No matter how bad she is, she is still your mother. She carried you for ten months and gave birth to you. You don't think about how to save her, and you are still here... saying such heartbreaking words!"
"She gave birth to me, but did she raise me for even a day? I caused her to have a difficult labor, I deserve to die! She threw me into the coffin like a madman, trying to suffocate me to death. If it wasn't for Second Auntie who pushed open the coffin lid, I would have already..."
Yu Zeying wanted love, so he kept forgiving, but all these forgiveness turned into sharp knives, stabbing him again and again. Just like that, he was transformed from a good person into a piece of smelly rotten meat.
Xiao Si stammered to make excuses for Yu Jun, "At that time...she was suffering from severe postpartum depression...she didn't know what she was doing. She had you in her heart..."
Yu Zeying was disheartened and interrupted him coldly.
"Don't cover up for her anymore. You are just like her. When grandma was around, you left me to grandma. Now that grandma is gone, you left me to my uncle and aunt. You shamelessly cling to them. Does my mom even look at you? She depends on you now because she has no one to depend on..."
Xiao Si grabbed his arm, with a broken nerve, "But she and I have been married for so many years, you want me to just watch her die like this, I can't do it! Ayi... You must have a way, Ayi..."
Yu Zeying's eyes were misty, and he pried his hands apart. "If you continue like this, our father-son relationship will be over. I went to the village chief to apply for a property certificate for the new house. It's in my name, so it has nothing to do with you. You can sell the old house if you want..."
"Ai, how could you do that?!!! You are being unfilial..." Xiao Si's sunken eyes widened. His youngest son had always been the softest-hearted, but now...
"She deserves to die. Why did you save her? My brother has been controlled by grandpa and uncle. What is she doing as a mother? And you, you clearly know that grandpa is the murderer of Ah Sui's father. Why didn't you say it? Why did you hide it from me?!!"
The bones in Yu Zeying's body were cracked inch by inch, and it was so painful that he couldn't fight. Xiao Si opened his mouth in panic, as if he had become mute.
Yu Zeying's eyes were red, even his pupils were covered with a layer of blood, and he smiled coldly, "I couldn't understand why you always tried to please Big Brother before? It turns out you feel guilty! How can a person like you feel guilty? My mother deserves to die, and you deserve to die too!"
Xiao Si was so angry that his eyes went dark. He had to argue, but he couldn't say anything because what he said was an unshakable fact...
He was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. He pushed him down and walked out in a panic, as if he could get rid of the words he had just said if he walked fast enough...
He paralyzed himself like this, and walked out of the house, out of the courtyard gate, and out of the fence wall...
Stumbling around like a wandering ghost...
Mu Xiliang put down the snowball and walked quickly into the house. In the dim light, Yu Zeying was sitting paralyzed on the ground, his sharp and clear face drowned in blood. Mu Xiliang's legs were shaking, "Yu Er! I...I, you get up, let's go to the clinic..."
Yu Zeying held him stiffly in his arms, buried his head in the crook of his neck, and in the dim light, he held his hand and interlocked their fingers, and said softly in a dull voice: "Ah Xi... I'm fine, I just hit my head on the cabinet. It's all over. It will all be over when my mother dies..."
But his brother will never come back, he has no brother anymore...
Mu Xiliang was silent for a while, then raised his hands and hugged him tightly, "Don't be afraid, I will be with you..."
Yu Zeying's eyelids were red and he wanted to cry. He bit his lips tightly, "Ah Xi..." Mu Xiliang didn't say anything, but just patted his shoulder lightly from time to time.
The hot breath lingered around the two of them, and was soon blown away by a strong breeze...
Mu Xiliang searched the cabinet till it was almost broken, but he only found a small piece of gauze. "Why don't we go to the toilet?"
Yu Zeying took the gauze from his hand and quickly wrapped it around his head. "No need. There are a group of old ladies sitting at the door of the clinic every day. If they see my head is broken and bleeding, they might spread rumors!"
The wound was not deep, so Mu Xiliang disinfected it with alcohol. Yu Zeying had suffered more serious injuries before, so he didn't take it seriously. Mu Xiliang's frown never relaxed, "But..."
Yu Zeying strangled his waist and pinned him to his thighs. Mu Xiliang did not struggle. He became bolder and grabbed his hand, kissing it again and again. "It's really okay. If you don't believe me, let's test it with real guns and live ammunition!"
Mu Xiliang's beautiful fox eyes slightly twitched, "How do I test it?"
Yu Zeying suddenly kissed his lips and bit them, "Give me *!"
Mu Xiliang secretly complained in his heart. He knew that this pervert with a lower body would not say anything good, but he was the one who allowed him to become like this. Her jade-like fingers stroked his sword-like brows, "But the bed legs haven't been nailed on yet, how can I *?"
Yu Zeying licked the corner of his lips and coaxed in a deep voice, "Shall we go to another place?"
Mu Xiliang fell uncontrollably, "Okay..."
The extremely passionate kiss ended, Yu Zeying picked up the soft Mu Xiliang by the waist and walked towards the room, almost running...
After carrying Mu Xiliang to the room, Yu Zeying remembered that he still had to help Song Huizi and Lu Jun move. With a dry throat, he grabbed Mu Xiliang and raised his lips, "A Xi, um... I haven't finished moving for my second uncle and second aunt..." Before he could finish, Mu Xiliang's face was full of anger and he slapped him hard several times.
On the goat path, he had a swollen face, a gauze wrapped around his head, and was smiling in a foolish and silly way.
Liang Jingxuan, who saw him first, covered his mouth with his hands and screamed in shock, then ran into the house, "Second Aunt, Brother Ying has turned into a pig, no! He has turned into a boar! Go and see..."
He dragged Song Huizi out, and Lu Sui put down the pearwood cabinet in his hand and followed. When Song Huizi saw the bandage on Yu Zeying's head, her heart seemed to be tugged hard, "Xiaoying...what happened? Is this your dad?"
Yu Zeying grinned, "Not really... I didn't stand steadily and bumped into the cabinet. Don't worry, Auntie. It's been bandaged and it looks a little scary, but it's okay."
Song Huizi's fingers trembled as she wanted to touch it, but she suddenly retracted her fingers when she remembered that her hands were covered in dust. "Why are you so careless? This is the place you must not bump into..."
"It's really okay! I'll go move the millstone out." Yu Zeying was about to go inside, but Lu Sui grabbed him and said, "Don't move it when you're like this."
"Yes, don't move! Why move? Wait until tonight, I will stew pork ribs for you to nourish you... Your father is too... Forget it..." Song Huizi would not curse, nor did she want to curse. She just didn't understand how their parents could be so cruel to such a good child?
"No, I'm fine. You won't let me move..."
Lu Sui took out the car key and threw it to him, "Drive the car and take the furniture to the brick factory. I called Shuanzi and he's waiting for you at the door. Don't move, he'll ask someone to move it."
Yu Zeying took the car key and said, "OK!"
Liang Jingxuan was still looking at the bandage on his head. "Brother Ying, does it hurt? Do you want me to blow it for you?"
Yu Zeying pinched his face and said, "No need. I've stuck my head into a glass window before and it was fine! Do you want to come with me?"
Liang Jingxuan's head shook like a wave drum, "No, I want to be with my husband, wherever he is, I will be there..."
"Okay, then you stay here. I'm leaving and will buy you some spicy noodles when I come back!" Yu Zeying walked out, throwing the key.
Song Huizi worriedly instructed, "Drive slower!"
Yu Zeying laughed wantonly, "Got it!"
Song Huizi looked at his high-spirited appearance, her eyes were hot. The little boy who used to be not even up to her knees had suddenly grown taller than her and was now married. Although he was a male daughter-in-law, he was still a daughter-in-law...
The army soldier stood at the back carrying a large iron pot, panting, "When are you going to give him the things his grandmother left for him?"
Song Huizi glanced at him and said, "Tonight...can't you change your clothes to carry it? Your shoulders are covered in black dust...I don't even know how to wash them in the washing machine!"
The soldier rested enough and walked out with the big iron pot on his shoulder. "It's okay. I'll let the braincutter wash it!"
Lu Sui, "..."
Liang Jingxuan pouted and pulled his clothes, "Husband, I want you to wash too! If you don't wash, you're a bad husband!"
Lu Sui's face gradually became angry. "When did I not wash your clothes? From your underwear to your clothes, your pants, and even your overalls, which one of them was not washed by me?"
Liang Jingxuan yelled, "You didn't give me a bath last night!"
Lu Sui, "..."
Song Huizi and the army heard it clearly...
Lu Sui frowned angrily, covered his mouth awkwardly, and dragged him into the van...
After all the furniture was moved, they started to remove the tiles. Song Huizi felt sad as she watched the tiles being removed one by one. She had been married for thirty-five years. There were originally seven or eight people in the family, but only three were left during that brutal winter. She almost didn't survive that winter.
Liang Jingxuan took her hand, which was as rough as tree bark, and said, "Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
Song Huizi held his hand tightly with relief, "It's okay... I miss your grandpa and grandma..."
She married into the Lu family when she was 18 years old. Her parents-in-law treated her very well. Lu Jun was a bastard when he was young, but he gradually became a better person. That child had always been her obsession and tortured her for half her life. She also figured it out. Maybe he was really not meant for her...
So I let it go.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at Lu Jun, wondering when he would be able to let go of his hatred and resentment...
The remaining sun was so red that it seemed to be burning. The kitchen had been demolished and dinner was cooked in the brick factory. Mu Xiliang was not there and the house was to be renovated in two days. The renovation materials were hung at the door and there had to be no one to watch over it.
Yu Zeying finished his meal voraciously, took the key, picked up the bamboo basket with the food and was about to leave, but Song Huizi called him, "Xiaoying, wait a minute!"
Pushing him into the house, Yu Zeying was confused, "What's wrong... Second Aunt?"
"Don't talk!"
Song Huizi closed the door, inserted the bolt, opened the pear wood cabinet, and took away the folded clothes. There was a secret compartment at the bottom of the cabinet, which was locked with a tiger-head lock from the outside. After unlocking it, there were two layers of drawers inside. Song Huizi opened the first drawer.
Yu Zeying couldn't help but tease, "Aunt, you're such a hidden thief that even if we empty the house, we may not be able to find you..."
Song Huizi took out a black wooden box wrapped in red cloth and handed it to him. "This is what your grandma asked me to keep for you before she died. She said I would give it to you after you got married. Now you are together with Xiaoxi, and the new house is almost built, so it's time to give it to you."
The nonchalant look on Yu Zeying's face disappeared completely. He held his breath and opened the black wooden box. The green jade bracelet was like a pool of clear water, sparkling with light.
"Auntie..." Yu Zeying's lips trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of mist.
Song Huizi touched his face tenderly.
"Your mother divorced your father... and returned the jade bracelets to your grandmother. She didn't leave them to your father because she knew what kind of person he was. You are a good child. You didn't do those things. Don't feel burdened or guilty anymore. Live a good life with Xiaoxi..."
The number of words in the text is sufficient. The following words are not included in the text:
It should be over soon. The weather is cold. Everyone should take care of their health. Don’t be too stubborn or conceited. You must wear more clothes. The result of my conceit is that I had a high fever for a week, and then my tonsils became inflamed and then I started coughing. I coughed until 3 a.m. last night...
The outline of Yu Ze Hui Zhi Yan is finished. After finishing, I will write about them in the extra chapter. My broken body is really not good enough...
