The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 225 The Truth (3)

Shen Jinglan was so angry that her chest heaved violently: "Yes, my mother did use means to harm you in order for me to marry into the Li family as I wished, but your position as the mistress of the Li family should have been mine, and it was you who occupied it. Magpie's nest, my mother tried her best to get it back for me, what's wrong with that?"

What Shen Jinglan said completely confused Jingshu.

She looked at Shen Jinglan doubtfully: "It's me who the Li family wants to marry, and I'm the matchmaker of the Li family who is marrying Li Ling. What does this have to do with you? Don't you miss my husband so much that you go crazy?"

Shen Jinglan met Jingshu's gaze and finally told her the old things that Jingshu had never known.

Shen Jinglan replied: "That year we went to watch lanterns together during the Lantern Festival and met the eldest son of the Li family. I fell in love with him at first sight when I first met Li Ling. Later I told my mother about this. I will never marry unless I am Li Ling. Mother Taking pity on my infatuation, in order to let me achieve my wish, she asked people to do everything possible to find out that the son of the Li family was going to accompany his family on a boat trip during the Dragon Boat Festival. Then my mother took great pains and ordered someone to rent a boat, and then arranged for me to accidentally fall into the water. The drama of the eldest son of the Li family hero saving a beauty. Mother had already found out that the eldest son of the Li family was a responsible person. If I ruined my boudoir because of this, he would definitely be responsible."

She looked at Jing Shu bitterly: "You are so troublesome that you grabbed me when I fell into the water, but you fell into the water yourself and led the Li family's heir to rescue me."

"I should have been the one to hook up with the heir apparent of the Li family. I told you that you were trying to occupy a magpie's nest, so why am I still unjustly accusing you?"

Because Wang fell in love with her father, she tried every possible means to kill her mother, who had saved her life. Shen Jinglan fell in love with Li Ling, and they shamelessly resorted to such shameless means. Come and harm her viciously.

This mother and daughter did so many vicious things in the name of love, which is really disgusting.

As soon as Shen Jinglan finished speaking, Jing Shu raised her hand and slapped her hard: "How could our Shen family have such a shameless daughter like you?"

Shen Jinglan turned her head away from the slap. She reached out and touched one side of her burning face. She smiled at Jingshu and said, "You have always been the fairy who grew up in the clouds. You are too noble to live in the world. Then It's because you can always get better things without any effort. But I have nothing. Even the mother who loved me the most died like this because of you. Shen Jingshu, you owe me , you will never be able to pay it back in this life."

Jing Shu looked at Shen Jinglan contemptuously: "You are not worthy of being my father's daughter, and you are not worthy of being my sister."

After knowing the whole truth, Jing Shu felt a wave of nausea in her stomach. She threw these words towards Shen Jinglan and left without looking back.

Jingshu left the main house, but she was not in a hurry to leave the house. Her steps were unexpectedly heading towards Wang's mourning hall.

As she expected, Shen Jingxuan and Shen Xing were kneeling in the mourning hall to keep vigil for Wang.

Jingshu could not care about Shen Jinglan, a sister with evil intentions like the Wang family, but her two younger siblings, Xuan'er and Xing'er, were still young and like their Shen family, they were simple and kind-hearted. Because of the grudges between adults, Jingshu couldn't let go of these changes they encountered.

Jing Shu stood at the door of the mourning hall, glancing at Wang's memorial tablet, and bits and pieces of the past emerged in her mind.

She remembered that she was only in her teens when her father brought her back from Chaozhou. She also remembered that it was a summer evening when she returned to Shen Mansion. Her father took her out of the car, and the Wang family waiting outside the door was a person.

He greeted me with a kind face.

She still remembered that Wang had always loved cleanliness, and she was often dissatisfied with the clothes her mothers-in-law washed for Jingshu. Every time she saw a stain on her body that could not be cleaned, Wang would wash it for her herself.

Don't stop until everything is clean.

Jingshu still remembers that every time she fell ill, Wang and her father would take turns taking care of her.

Although Wang killed her mother at the beginning, she was sincere to her. She also respected and loved Wang from the bottom of her heart.

Over the years, although they were not biological mother and daughter, they had sincerely devoted themselves to each other. Now that Wang is deceased, Jingshu feels an indescribable feeling in her heart. She no longer wants to hate Wang, who harmed their mother and daughter.

She also couldn't forgive her. Jingshu just hoped that all the grudges and grudges in the past could go away with the wind.

She, her father, and her younger siblings can still love each other as before.

This home can still get better.

Jingshu stood quietly outside the door, looking at the poor backs of the younger siblings kneeling in front of the soul.

After a while, siblings Shen Jinglan and Shen Xing, who were immersed in the pain of losing their mother, noticed Jingshu standing under the door.

Shen Jingxuan turned around and was no longer as clingy as usual. She looked at Jing Shu blankly, her little face full of sadness: "Eldest sister, the second sister said that you killed my mother, is that true?"

Shen Xing also looked at her, waiting for her answer.

"Eldest sister, are you talking? Is what the second sister said true?" Shen Jingxuan stood up and walked over, holding Jingshu's sleeve and asking.

They are still young and do not understand the grudges and grudges among adults.

Jingshu did not answer the question. She only said to her siblings: "My condolences. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me at any time."

After that, Jingshu turned around and disappeared into the dark night. She had finally lost this home that was once full of joy and laughter.

Jingshu stepped on the snow with heavy steps, the cold wind blew on her face, but it could not blow away the cold and biting tears.

"Eldest sister——"

Jingshu turned her head sharply when she heard the call.

It was the younger brother Shen Xing who chased him out.

"Sister, will you go home again?"

Shen Xing's smiling figure stood in the wind and snow. Even in such a dark night, Jingshu could still feel the burning longing eyes of her brother looking at her.

"This is my home. My eldest sister will come back. You take good care of your father." Jingshu replied to her brother with tears in her eyes.

She didn't dare to think about whether the young siblings would be able to forgive her when they grew up. Although she had been mentally prepared when she exposed the Wang family, she was still very afraid when facing her young siblings.

lose them.

After all, she still values ​​this flesh-and-blood relationship very much in her heart.

Jingshu didn't know how she walked out of the Shen's house. She had never been so sad as she was now. When she walked out of the door, she had exhausted all her strength. Jingshu's feet softened and she fell heavily.

In a solid embrace.

She hugged Li Ling back tightly and said sadly: "I have no home now."

Li Ling hugged her tightly and replied: "Don't be afraid, as long as I am here, I will be your home."

It was windy and snowy outside, and Li Ling sat in the carriage, holding his wife tightly. In Li Ling's solid embrace, Jing Shu quietly closed her eyes.
