Chapter 410 - 410 Look Ahead, Walk Ahead
410 Look Ahead, Walk Ahead
No matter what Madam Zhao chose, she would not hate her because of this.
Madam Zhao was not wrong in this matter, and neither were they.
When fate comes to meet, fate separates. Everything in the world is because of this.
Let go, then look ahead and walk forward.!!
“Xiaolu.”
Su Xiaoling choked slightly and nodded.
The two sisters looked at each other and smiled. Su Xiaoling hugged Su Xiaolu tightly. She swallowed and said, “Xiaolu, I will never change.”
Su Xiaolu nodded gently and said, “Sis, you’ve been guarding me for the entire night. I’ve made you worry. You should rest.”
Su Xiaoling had dark circles under her eyes. It was obvious how difficult her night had been.
Su Xiaoling shook her head. “I’m not tired.”
Su Xiaolu pulled Su Xiaoling to the bed and let her lie down to sleep.
Su Xiaoling could not persuade her and could only sleep. She was indeed too tired. Now that she relaxed, she quickly fell asleep.
Su Xiaolu pinched Su Xiaoling’s wrist and transferred some Internal force to her before getting up and going out.
Last night was a big blow to their family.
However, after the blow, they still had to continue living and move forward.
Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng were already up.
When they saw Su Xiaolu, they smiled weakly as a greeting.
The few of them cooked together.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao had yet to get up.
The family was silent, and they didn’t really want to talk.
They needed to give Madam Zhao some time to calm down.
As for Madam Zhao, she did not sleep the entire night. Su Sanlang hugged her, and the two of them did not sleep or talk.
Seeing the sky gradually brighten outside and hearing the children get up, Su Sanlang swallowed and said in a dry voice, “Darling, can you get up and eat something?”
Madam Zhao’s shoulders trembled slightly. She choked and said, “Will you still want me?”
From Qi Xinyue’s confession, she knew that it was not an accident that she had been abducted by the bandits. But it had been several months since such a fierce bandit abducted her and she married Su Sanlang. Had she really been innocent in these few months?
Madam Zhao was filled with panic and pain.
Su Sanlang tightened his arms and choked. “What nonsense are you talking about? How can I not want you? I’m the one who’s afraid that you won’t want me or the children…”
“You could have married well. He’s still waiting for you… The two of you should have married, but I was just a freak combination of factors. If you want to leave, I don’t even have the courage to ask you to stay.”
Su Sanlang felt a dull ache in his heart. It hurt whenever he thought about it. He didn’t know how to face it.
Madam Zhao listened to Su Sanlang’s silly words and cried and laughed. She did not know that Su Sanlang would be so stupid. The things that they were each in pain for were completely different.
“I’m not leaving. I want to be with you and the children. We’re a family. I want to spend the rest of my life with you until we grow old and die.”
Madam Zhao hugged Su Sanlang tightly and gave him an even more suffocating hug in return.
There was also Su Sanlang’s choked and heavy response. “Okay, then we’ve agreed that no one is allowed to change.”
The pain of the entire night was cured by Madam Zhao’s words.
All his pain had been the fear that she would leave. Nothing could have reassured him more than her firm assertion that she would not.
Madam Zhao leaned into Su Sanlang’s arms and listened to his strong heartbeat. The corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.
She was lucky to have met him.
“Father, mother, food is ready.”
Su Xiaolu’s voice sounded outside the door.
Su Sanlang said gently to Madam Zhao, “Can you eat something?”
Madam Zhao nodded.
Su Sanlang shouted to Su Xiaolu outside the door, “Okay, your mother and I will be right there.”
The family ate together. Su Xiaolu scooped the noodles and poured them with meat sauce. She brought them to Madam Zhao and said, “Mother, eat the noodles.”
Madam Zhao smiled and nodded. She felt that Su Xiaolu seemed to have matured overnight.
Every child in the family was very sensible. Looking at their eyes, Madam Zhao’s heart ached. She understood everything.
How could she not understand her children?
They, like their father, were wondering if she would leave. And the look in their eyes told her that if she did, they wouldn’t blame her.
Madam Zhao lowered her eyes and looked at the bowl of noodles in her hand. She pursed her lips and smiled. She said, “Our family has been through all kinds of things. There’s nothing that our family can’t get through, even in the future.”
“Chong, Hua, and Heng, you have to adjust your mood and take the exam well, do you hear me? Don’t worry about anything else. With Father and Mother around, there’s nothing that can’t be resolved.”
After Madam Zhao finished speaking gently and firmly, she turned to Su Sanlang and said, “Sanlang, don’t you think so?”
Su Sanlang smiled warmly and nodded. “Yes, you’re right.”
Su Xiaolu, who was eating her noodles quietly, looked at Su Xiaoling with a smile.
Su Chong, Su Hua, and the others looked at each other. Su Chong smiled excitedly and said, “Mother, don’t worry. I definitely won’t disappoint you.”
Su Hua also said seriously, “Father, Mother, don’t worry. I will definitely perk up and prepare for the exam.”
Zhou Heng smiled and said, “I’ll definitely do my best.”
They were also relieved. This family would not lose anyone. There were no difficulties that could separate them.
After dinner, she returned to her room to rest.
Su Xiaolu took the herbs and ground them. The exam was in a few days, so she should prepare some medicine for her brothers to bring to the exam hall.
Liu Zijin came to visit.
Su Chong told him everything in detail.
Liu Zijin sighed. “I didn’t expect there to be so many twists and turns behind this.”
“Fortunately, it’s all over now.”
Su Xiaolu interrupted.
Su Chong smiled and looked much more relaxed.
Liu Zijin smiled slightly. “That’s good. You can calm down and prepare to take the exam. We’ve studied hard for many years just for this.”
Liu Zijin looked at Su Hua and Zhou Heng and said, “Brother Hua, Heng, you have to do your best. I won’t give in humbly.”
Su Hua and Zhou Heng smiled and cupped their hands at Liu Zijin. The two of them said in unison, “Likewise.”
Su Xiaolu smiled as well.
It was as if something had changed, but at the same time, nothing seemed to have changed.
The family could also treat Madam Zhao’s identity peacefully.
Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng began to prepare for the general examination on February 18th.
After some discussion, the family decided that they would not see anyone for the next few days.
The Yan family and the Qi family had been here before. Su Xiaolu came out to ask them to go back.
Father Qi and Mother Qi came because they could not calm down after reading Qi Xinyue’s confession. As soon as Su Xiaolu explained, they understood and only said that they would come after Su Chong and Su Hua took the exam.
Two middle-aged men, a man and a woman, came from the Yan family. Their request was rejected, they even dealt with Su Xiaolu for a while. Seeing that there was really no other way, they turned around and went home.
On February 18th, Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng successfully went to take the exam.
