Mother Su stood up excitedly and said hurriedly: "Yuer, you are finally here."
After waiting for so long, Su's mother was very unhappy and full of resentment, but she knew that she couldn't lose her temper with Su Qingyue, so she could only pretend to smile.
Su Qingyue naturally understood her mother. She could tell at a glance whether she was angry or happy, but in this case, she didn't care.
"Mother, what's the matter with you coming here so late at night?"
Su Qingyue asked calmly and sat on the chair slowly.
Mother Su hurriedly sat down and said, "Your father is in prison, Yue'er, can you save your father? If you don't save him, he might die. Yue'er, no matter what, he is your father, who gave birth to you and raised you. The grace of your parents in raising you is greater than your own. You can't just watch your father die! Right?"
Once Su's mother started talking, she couldn't stop. She became more and more excited, and her tone unconsciously became accusatory.
Su Qingyue listened to her mother's words with an expressionless face, and her heart was calm.
After her mother finished speaking, she said calmly, "Mother, I have heard about father's affairs. I have also inquired about them. Father is not only corrupt, but also colluded with merchants, abused his power to do whatever he wants, and even oppressed farmers and forced them to death. These things involve not only corruption, but also lives. I am just a housewife of a small merchant, how can I save him? Mother, are you so anxious that you have forgotten my identity? If I can save my father, why do you need to tell me?"
Su Qingyue explained in a calm and serious tone, which made her mother frown.
Mother Su only felt that her daughter's eyes were full of indifference, as if she was talking about something unimportant.
This attitude made Su's mother angry, and she couldn't help but raise her voice.
"You don't have the ability, but Qingli does. She cares about you so much. If you ask her, she will definitely save your father. Besides, your father is also her father. As long as you ask her in person, she will definitely help you for your sake. Qingyue, do you want to watch your father die?"
Su's mother's eyes were full of anger. She looked at Su Qingyue with expectation and blame. She expected her to nod and agree to rescue her, and blamed her for being too indifferent.
If Su Qingyue heard these words again, she would no longer be angry.
She slowly said: "The Queen gave me some face, but she didn't let me use it like this. Our relationship is not as good as you think. If I ask her to save my father, I might anger her. Mother, do you want me to sacrifice myself to save my father?
I heard that the Queen has been in a bad mood these days. The eldest prince and princess are missing, and she is bedridden. How can I add to her troubles at a time like this? As for father's affairs, mother should figure out a solution herself! ”
Su Qingyue's expression remained indifferent throughout, and her rejection was merciless. Su's mother didn't expect that she would be so heartless that she could ignore her father's suffering.
Su's mother's face suddenly turned ugly, and the hypocritical smile in her eyes could no longer be maintained. That glimmer of expectation was completely dashed.
She looked at him and said, "Qingyue, how can you say such things? Your father is imprisoned in a prison, with no food to eat, no clothes to wear, and no sleep to sleep. He is suffering, and you can be so nonchalant and show no concern at all. When did you become so cold-blooded?"
Mother Su seemed to be meeting Su Yue for the first time, with a look of despair in her eyes, as if Su Qingyue had done something outrageous that she could not accept.
Su Qingyue glanced at her, still expressionless, and said, "Mother, I am really powerless. Since I can't do anything, then it would be superfluous for me to say more. If you think I am cold-blooded, then I have nothing to say. Just treat me as your daughter! No, mother, you and father have already treated me as your daughter. I really let you down and failed to bring you benefits. At this critical moment, I can't do anything for you even if I marry into my husband's family. I can't help you at all. I am useless. I'm sorry! Mother."
Although Su Qingyue said sorry, her tone did not show any apology at all, and she still sounded like an indifferent bystander.
Mother Su listened to her words and looked at her calm face. She couldn't control her anger and slammed her palm heavily on the table beside her. Then she swept away all the teacups on the table and smashed the porcelain to the ground. There was a crackling sound, which scared the maids outside and made them run in.
"Young Master, are you okay?"
The maid asked worriedly.
Su Qingyue smiled at the maid, then said, "It's okay, you guys go ahead! I'll clean up here later."
The maids nodded, turned and left.
Su's mother got angry, and she felt even more upset when she saw that Su Qingyue was still in the mood to smile at these maids.
He couldn't help but roared: "Su Qingyue, are you really so cruel? You don't even care about your own father?"
Su's mother must have been desperate, otherwise she wouldn't have come looking for her daughter.
If the only way for her to go is Su Qingyue's, then the only thing she can do is to let Su Qingyue ask Qingli for help.
But looking at Su Qingyue like this, Su's mother guessed that she would not go, and a nameless anger always rose in her heart, burning her whole body to boil. She became more and more angry and her emotions were difficult to control.
"I think you are the calamity of the family. We have provided you with so much good food and drink, taught you to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and taught you to manage household finances. We have spent so much real money and energy to train you. It's really a waste of effort. We have raised an ungrateful person. We have worked hard to raise you for more than twenty years, and in return you have such a ruthless heart and a dog-hearted person like you. Su Qingyue, you are not afraid of being condemned for treating your parents like this."
Su's mother showed a vicious face, and her sarcastic look made Su Qingyue feel very unfamiliar.
Facing her mother's accusations, Su Qingyue remained emotionless, neither sad nor angry, she just looked at her quietly.
"Mother, you can scold me as much as you want! It's okay as long as you are happy. It is true that I am unfilial and cannot save father. Mother wants to kill me, and I have nothing to say. Please do as you please!"
Su Qingyue's indifferent look made Su's mother calm down.
She stopped crying and just stared at Su Qingyue, her mind suddenly becoming clear.
A moment later, Mother Su knelt down in front of Su Qingyue with a plop. "Qingyue, I beg you, as your mother, please save your father. Go and ask the Queen for help! I beg you."
Su's mother suddenly knelt down, which scared Su Qingyue. She hurried to help her, but Su's mother held her arm and refused to get up.
"Mother, why do you force me like this?"
Su Qingyue was helpless, with a feeling of powerlessness all over her body. She felt that she was really useless, and she still couldn't be as cruel as them. Her mother knelt down, making her at a loss.
Su's mother held her arm and cried, "It's not that mother wants to force you, Qingyue, just think of it as repaying the kindness of your father and I for giving birth to you, and go to ask the queen for help! As long as you save your father this time, from now on, we will never ask you for anything again, you can do whatever you want, and we will never say a word again. From now on, in this family, whatever you say is what counts, okay? Qingyue."
Su's mother cried and sobbed. She was no longer like a hedgehog. Instead, she learned to show weakness and use tears to force Su Qingyue, and her attitude was very humble.
