In my 40s, the trading system took me flying

Chapter 66 Running away from home

There is nothing interesting about the hustle and bustle. Xu's mother didn't want to get involved, so naturally she wouldn't allow her daughter to go.

The waiting time was too long, and as a child, Xu Xiaoya naturally couldn't bear it and fell asleep quickly.

When she woke up the next day, Xu Xiaoya was curious about what happened next, so she naturally followed Xu's mother to ask.

"Everyone is fine, but Baozhu is in a bad state. Her arm was burned!"

Xu's mother helped Xu Xiaoya change her clothes and tied her hair, and she didn't mean to hide anything from her.

After packing up, Xu Xiaoya got up and went to look for Old Lady Su.

Old Mrs. Su had indeed gotten up by now, but she was feeling upset and didn't want to eat. When she saw Xu Xiaoya appear, she called her over to talk.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Xu Xiaoya nodded.

"Grandma, I slept so well!"

I just don't like gossip.

Because of the farce caused by her aunt, Xu's mother didn't want to stay in the Su family for long and planned to go back before the New Year.

How could Old Mrs. Su be reluctant to let her child go back after not seeing him for several years? She wanted to go back as soon as her child came back, and she was forced to go back by her own daughter-in-law. Any mother would be unhappy about that.

Xu Xiaoya didn't see Su Wenshu that day, probably because he was busy with the mess his wife had made.

Just because I didn’t see Su Wenshu doesn’t mean there are no other people in the Su family, such as the man with the duck voice I saw yesterday.

Xu Xiaoya was lying on Old Madam Su's bed, watching Dingxiang and the others embroider, when she saw Su Mingquan running in. With red eyes, she questioned Xu's mother, "Aunt, what's the grudge between you and my mother? Why are you trying to force her to death?"

Xu Xiaoya was unhappy. She stood in front of Xu's mother to protect her own mother, and stood on tiptoe to meet Su Mingquan's gaze: "Little cousin, don't look for trouble. If you don't welcome us, we will leave immediately!"

Mother Xu picked up Xu Xiaoya, patted her little head, and calmly said to Su Mingquan: "Mingquan, you were nine years old when I left. You should be able to remember things, right?"

Su Mingquan was stunned.

Old Mrs. Su next to her sighed.

She didn't want her daughter to remember what happened back then. After all, they were not very good memories. Now that they were dug up by someone, they didn't seem right no matter how she looked at them.

"so what?"

Su Mingquan didn't understand what Xu's mother meant.

Mother Xu said calmly, "If you still remember, you should know that your mother was locked up for a while the year I left!"

Su Mingquan tried hard to recall, and it seemed that there was such a thing.

"Back then, your mother schemed against me for the sake of her aunt's sister, and almost made me a perverted concubine!"

Back then, Xu's mother was soft-hearted and felt wronged. Her brother, sister-in-law, and mother didn't understand the truth and asked her to stop making trouble for the sake of the family's stability. So she ran away from home in anger. Later, a series of things happened and she ended up being with Xu's father.

Just because Xu's mother doesn't want to talk about something doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Old Mrs. Su's face changed drastically.

Whenever she thought about her behavior back then, she regretted it.

Now that her daughter had talked her out of it, Old Mrs. Su kept crying.

"Originally, I didn't want to come back this time. It was your father who came to me again and again, saying that he didn't know if your grandmother was old enough to see me, so I came back!"

Mother Xu held Xu Xiaoya in her arms and turned to Old Madam Su and said, "Mom, I shouldn't have been considered a member of the Su family back then. Although I haven't lived as well as the Su family in recent years, I'm still happy. Now that I've seen you, it's better not to contact you in the future!"

Xu Xiaoya hugged Xu's mother's neck.

She really didn't know the inside story, otherwise she wouldn't have come back with us.

"Mom, let's go!"

Xu Xiaoya had a stern face. If she didn't know about this matter, she would indeed think that Xu's mother's behavior was inappropriate. However, after learning the truth, she realized that staying here would hurt Xu's mother's heart.

Mother Xu nodded.

People have seen it too.

Originally, when visiting relatives, you don’t need to stay for that long.

Mrs. Su covered her heart and stepped forward to hold Xu's mother's arm: "Ziqing, you are still blaming me!"

Mother Xu nodded. "I treated you as family, but you made me swallow my anger. Not only did you not protect me from the wind and rain, but you also wanted to plot against me. Since you sided with my sister-in-law back then, why did you do this now? Was she really going to be killed by the fire yesterday?"

Old Mrs. Su let go of her hand.

Xu Xiaoya looked at Su Wenshu who walked into the room, and her heart was filled with anger.

"Uncle, I hate you!"

Su Wenshu couldn't just let Xu's mother and the others leave like that. The situation in the provincial capital was very chaotic right now, and he brought them back to ease the relationship.

"Uncle was wrong, and I won't make the same mistake again. How about you help me apologize to your mother?"

Su Wenshu still wanted to let Xu Xiaoya act as a mediator, but he didn't know that Xu Xiaoya had a clear distinction between love and hate and would not give him any chance at all.

"Tsk, if Yamamoto hadn't targeted you, would you have thought of bringing me here?"

If Erni had not brought Yamamoto to find Lin Dahu and was injured, she would probably have come to the Su family to find Xu Xiaoya.

When Midori disappeared, although Xu Xiaoya was thrown into a concentration camp, Erni told them that Xu Xiaoya was not dead. According to Yamamoto's character, he definitely wanted Xu Xiaoya to appear. Even if there was no news about Midori, he probably wanted Xu Xiaoya to pay with her life.

It’s not that the Su family didn’t know what happened, but they brought Xu Xiaoya to the city for the Su family’s sake. Xu Xiaoya didn’t want to speculate what their motive was.

It just feels meaningless.

Originally, she had handed Lin Dahu to Su Wenshu just to see Su Wenshu's attitude. If he saved people, it meant that he didn't want to be a running dog. If he didn't save people, it meant that the Su family was already rotten.

I don’t know what fate the book has arranged for the Su family, but at this moment Xu Xiaoya just wants to leave.

"No, uncle definitely doesn't think that!"

Su Wenshu immediately refuted.

Xu Xiaoya pointed at Su Mingquan and said, "But didn't my cousin show up at the theater yesterday with me? Especially that Zheng Zixuan. Is it really okay?"

Su Wenshu was silent.

How could it not matter.

Yamamoto has not woken up yet. If he wakes up, he will definitely investigate this matter.

Zheng Zixuan may be stupid, but his father is not stupid.

"Alright, we're all family, let's sit down first. Things need to be solved one by one!"

When Old Lady Su spoke, Su Wenshu pulled Xu's mother to sit down.

Xu's mother still had a stern face and didn't want to talk.

Su Mingquan has been driven away by Su Wenshu.

No matter how Su Wenshu teased Xu Xiaoya, she was too lazy to even give her a smile.

On this day, no one dared to come over and cause trouble.

Until midnight, Xu's mother picked up Xu Xiaoya and said, "Let's go!"

Xu Xiaoya screamed, her confused mind didn't react, but she could see that Xu's mother was not joking.

If you run away from home once, you will do it again.

However, Xu Xiaoya had no objection. Since Xu's mother was able to run away from home and be with Xu's father, she must not be stupid.

As soon as Xu's mother came outside with Xu Xiaoya in her arms, she saw Xu's father.

No one knew when the two of them had discussed this. Even though they lived separately, they were still able to leave in tacit understanding.

I thought someone would notice them leaving, but in the end no one stepped forward until they left the Su family.

"Mom, are they all dead asleep?"

Xu Xiaoya rubbed her eyes and began to doubt the authenticity of the matter.

There were so many servants when we came, why is there no one here at night?

Xu's mother glanced back at the Su family and said, "Of course I don't want to be criticized by the ancestors for being weak!"

Father Xu protected them and left quickly.

The city gate is closed, so you definitely can't leave the city, but you can still find a place to rest.

Xu Xiaoya was held in the arms of her father and fell asleep again in a daze.

By daybreak, they were already on a donkey cart heading towards the city gate.

Father Xu handed Xu Xiaoya an oil-paper bag containing a hot meat bun.

It was easy to leave the city. No one was checking us. It seemed that the injuries of Yamamoto and the others had no effect.

After leaving the city, there were many pedestrians on the road. It might be because the New Year is approaching, and many people are coming into the city to shop. There are many donkey carts, ox carts, and rickshaws.

Xu Xiaoya was watching the excitement and sighed: "We are at a great disadvantage!"

The main reason was that Xu Xiaoya didn't expect to leave in the middle of the night and didn't get any good things at all. She felt like she had lost a lot.

However, thinking of the many gold and jade jewelry she had received, it could barely comfort her wounded heart.

When Xu Xiaoya saw the beggar on the roadside, she slapped her head and forgot that there was a child in the space. What should she do now?

She couldn't possibly take the person back, so she needed to find a place to release him as soon as possible.

The father and son could have died together, but she separated them and scared Yamamoto and Erni to death.

It is estimated that in the short term, Erni and Yamamoto will become suspicious and doubt everything around them. After all, the disappearance of two living people out of thin air is extremely terrifying.

Not long after Xu Xiaoya and the others left the city, the Su family was surrounded by the gendarmerie.

Su Wenshu looked at the Japanese officer who appeared in front of him, his face frosted, but he had no way to drive him away.

"Mr. Su, I heard that there are distinguished guests at home!"

Su Wenshu looked at the traitor leader Zheng Zixuan who brought people here, and couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had stopped everyone from showing up in the middle of the night and allowed Xu's mother and her family of three to leave.

If we had really left them here, we would probably have to watch Xu's mother and the other two being taken away today.

"The person has left!"

Su Wenshu did not hide anything, so I think these people will also investigate.

The Japanese didn't believe it and sent people to search, but the Su family was a wealthy family after all, and a well-known figure in the provincial capital. If they were searched directly by the Japanese, they probably wouldn't be able to stay in the provincial capital anymore and would be laughed at to death.

Su Wenshu looked at Zheng Zixuan's father and said, "Director Zheng, you should know me well. There's no need for me to lie. He left last night, and when I found out, there was no trace of him!"

Director Zheng laughed and said, "How could you not know someone left your house?"

Su Wenshu smiled bitterly. "So much happened at home yesterday. I think Director Zheng has heard about it. Family disgrace should not be made public. The sister-in-law and the sister-in-law are not getting along, and it almost resulted in a death. My little sister is very stubborn and doesn't want to be wronged!"

Seeing that the little devil and Director Zheng had believed it and were about to leave, Zheng Zixuan suddenly said, "Uncle Su, I really like your niece. Can you give her to me as my wife?"
