Ex-husband kneels, son begs, she vows not to look back after divorce

At ten o'clock in the morning, Su Luo returned to the Xiao family manor.

It was an astonishingly large garden-style mansion, with sycamore trees on both sides of the driveway. The antique buildings were full of oriental classical beauty, luxurious and noble, and beautiful beyond words.

The Xiao family is a wealthy family.

Their wealth and status far surpassed that of the Gu family in the three western provinces.

When she got out of the car and came to the main hall, she saw Xiao Jingnan discussing something with several of his men. When he saw her coming, he waved his hand, asked them to get off, and then stood up with a smile.

"Brother, we are back!"

"Uncle."

Su Luo also called out obediently.

"Well, Xiaoshu, you finally know how to come back! You are such a stubborn kid. You've returned to the capital, but you still refuse to go home. Do you want to piss your mother off to death? Hurry up and go to Chunyuan to see your mother!"

Xiao Jingnan was smiling and very kind.

Su Luo bowed and went to Chunyuan, but he felt inexplicably timid in his heart.

I haven't seen my mother for a long time.

She no longer knew how to get along with her mother.

The love we once had only exists in memory.

During the two years in prison, she sometimes wondered if she had not studied medicine but continued to learn piano. Now, would she be a pianist or change careers to work in a company?

In fact, she felt that although playing the piano cultivated her sentiments, it was not her favorite thing to do.

She prefers singing to playing the piano, or she will become a singer.

Because of her different major, she embarked on a different life... Now that she has become like this, she is too ashamed to see her mother, otherwise, she would not have returned to Beijing but not come to see her.

Afraid of being scolded.

I'm more worried about being ignored.

……

At the gate of Chunyuan, Su Luo met his mother who was hurriedly coming out.

She was wearing a cheongsam, with her hair tied up in a high bun, she had a graceful figure and an elegant demeanor. Although she was in her fifties, she looked like a beautiful woman in her thirties or forties.

Cold, elegant, and radiant.

She once heard Aunt Qing say, "Your uncle really likes your mother. Now, your mother is old and ugly, but your uncle is still very nervous. He's afraid that she will be attracted by a young man. Whenever your mother has a jewelry launch, he will follow her throughout, holding flowers. Most importantly, he will also dress very young, for fear of being outdone..."

My mother made the right choice by marrying my uncle.

It was just a pity for her father, who lost her mother and lived a depressed life.

Occasionally, she would see in financial reports that her uncle took her mother to various banquets, and her mother was always dazzling and stunning the audience.

Today, I finally saw it.

Really, her mother is even more energetic than her.

When they looked at each other, her heart was beating wildly. The word "Mom" rolled in her throat, but it seemed as if it was blocked and she couldn't say it out.

Xiao Xiao's eyes were indifferent, without any excitement, and he did not call out.

Jin Bei looked a little anxious and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Sister-in-law, Xiaoshu is back to see you... Xiaoshu, call me mom..."

"No need."

Xiao Xiao stopped him lightly:

"Even her name has been changed, so there's no need to call her that. In her eyes, I've never been her mother... There's no need to be reluctant!"

Su Luo's face suddenly turned pale and his heart ached.

Without saying anything more, she turned around and left in a hurry, not even willing to look at her.

You came to the wrong place.

Jin Bei frowned secretly. How long would it take to resolve the knot between this mother and daughter? He didn't know how to comfort Su Luo - after all, it was he who brought her here.

"It's okay. Your mother is just angry that you didn't come to see her after returning to Kyoto. Now, let's go see the old man..."

Jin Bei coaxed her gently and patted her shoulder gently.

Su Luo held back the tears in her eyes. She should have expected that her mother had no feelings for her. Now, she had no real family in this world.

She smiled, although it was far-fetched, but she still smiled: "Well, go see grandpa."

*

The old man is in the greenhouse. Since grandma also likes flowers, there is a beautiful garden at home. The old man’s favorite thing to do is to tidy up this small garden.

"Dad, Mom, Xiaoshu is back..."

Jin Bei looked at the old man who was pruning the branches, and sitting next to him was Mrs. Xiao who was already suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

The old man turned his head, a smile on his kind face. He had just been talking to the old lady, and when he heard the call, he looked over: "Shu Lan...you've grown so big...Come here, come here quickly..."

The old man waved.

"Grandpa, grandma..."

Su Luo walked up and called out obediently.

Su Luo's memory of her grandmother was very vague, because the old lady began to suffer from dementia when she was very young; and as for the old man, in her impression, he did not love her and her brother, and always seemed lukewarm towards them.

She once heard her mother complain: "Dad, Xiaoshu is so enthusiastic about you, why don't you even want to hug her?"

Grandpa said, "I don't like the descendants of the Su family. Back then, I told you not to marry that kind of poor man, but you didn't listen. And you blame me for not liking your son and daughter? I didn't kick them out, which is already very good of me."

After leaving the capital at the age of fifteen, she never saw her mother again, let alone her grandfather.

After not seeing him for so many years, the old man's hair has turned completely white.

The old man took a closer look and smiled slightly: "You look more and more like your mother when she was young, with a face full of stubbornness, as if they were printed from the same mold... Xiaoshu... You must have suffered a lot in the outside world these years..."

Su Luo said gently, "Not bad."

"Fortunately, there will be no divorce. You, like your mother, are obsessed with face and suffer in vain... If you don't know how to judge people, you will suffer... Divorce is fine... Our Xiao family's grandson will never have trouble finding a husband..."

This sentence sounds a bit like support.

However, Su Luo could not feel much warmth.

Because her grandfather had never treated her well. Before her mother got divorced, the only person in the Xiao family who treated her well was her eldest uncle. Her youngest uncle was young at that time and would sometimes bully her.

Of course, if her uncle dared to bully her, Lu Qiaoling would bully him back.

"Grandpa, I've thought it through. I don't want to get married anymore!"

But the old man shouted, "What do you mean you don't want to get married? You have to marry, and you have to marry well. You'll make the Gu family angry to death... They wouldn't even be worthy of my granddaughter, Xiao He... Grandpa has prepared a dowry for you that will ensure you have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life, so your mother won't think I'm partial... I'm not partial. I treat both granddaughters equally..."

Su Luo listened in a daze.

Jin Bei looked at the old man's eyes that showed his love for his granddaughter, and his heart was pounding. He was afraid that the old man would beat him with a belt later...

"Master, the master said that the guests have arrived. Please ask you, the Third Master, and Miss Shulan to go over... to Jingshui Pavilion..."

The housekeeper came over to invite him.

Jin Bei's eyelids twitched violently, and he looked at his father: "Dad, do we have other guests over today?"

"Well, it's a good friend of mine who's here. Xiaoshu knows him, and you know him too... Let's go, go over there... Old housekeeper, take the old lady back to her room to rest..."

Grandma glanced at him blankly for a few seconds and then left, muttering to herself, "What a good marriage! What a good marriage! I've found a good marriage for Xiaoshu..."

Su Luo's eyelids twitched several times. Grandma should be stating what Grandpa had just said.

not good.

Could it be that grandpa has arranged a blind date party?
