469 Madam Zhao Recovered Her Memory
Su Xiaolu opened the door and left. She was really depressed, so she did not stay at home. She tiptoed and flew out of the house with her Qinggong.
At this moment, she needed a quiet space to calm down.
After Su Xiaolu left, Su Sanlang silently got up and closed the door again.
He walked to Madam Zhao and sat down.!!
He looked at Madam Zhao beside him with a gentle gaze and said gently, “Darling, let’s choose to recover your memories.”
As he spoke, Su Sanlang gently took Madam Zhao’s hand and held it tightly.
Madam Zhao looked at Su Sanlang and said nothing. Tears fell.
Su Sanlang smiled slightly and said, “It doesn’t matter even if we fail. We still have a lot of time. Our children have grown up and don’t need us to worry anymore. The money we’ve saved over the past few years is enough for us to live peacefully until we die of old age.”
“If you don’t remember, then I’ll tell you every day who you are and who I am. I can do nothing but stay with you and surround the yard at home. We can live the same life as before, working at sunrise and resting at sundown.”
Su Sanlang told her everything he was thinking.
Madam Zhao’s tears fell like rain. She leaned closer to Su Sanlang’s chest and replied in a choked voice, “Okay.”
The uneasiness in her heart gradually calmed down. She was no longer hesitant and afraid, because Su Sanlang was her eternal support. No matter what decision she made, Su Sanlang would support her.
He knew the struggle in her heart. He knew that she was afraid of some irreversible consequences, so he took it on for her and told her not to worry and be afraid.
Madam Zhao listened to Su Sanlang’s heartbeat and felt very calm.
Su Sanlang was relieved. As a husband and wife who slept together, how could he not understand Madam Zhao?
She never said anything about the knot in her heart, but it had always been there.
When Madam Zhao was deep in a nightmare, he heard Madam Zhao mutter, “I’m afraid” and “I’m sorry” in tears. Now that she was rich and the children did not have to worry about food and clothing, what was she afraid of? What was she sorry for?
If she did not untie the knot in her heart, she would not be able to tell anyone about it. Sooner or later, she would not be able to take it. A mental illness was also an illness. As time passed, she would eventually collapse.
Now that there was a chance, although it was dangerous, the worst outcome was that Madam Zhao could not remember anything. At least she did not have to worry anymore. She did not have to think too much. There was nothing bad about this.
Su Sanlang hugged Madam Zhao tighter.
The couple was still the same as before. They didn’t need to say much now.
After Su Xiaolu left home, she walked slowly on the street.
The capital was bustling, and the streets were filled with limestone slabs.
As she walked, a figure blocked her path.
Su Xiaolu went left, and so did the figure. Su Xiaolu went right, and so did the figure.
Su Xiaolu frowned and looked up. Her furrowed brows suddenly relaxed. She was pleasantly surprised. “Master, ah… Wah…”
Su Xiaolu hugged Old Wu and cried.
Old Wu was originally very happy, but when the words reached his mouth, he was hugged. In an instant, his entire body stiffened and he was as motionless as a wooden stake.
He stuttered, “Alright, alright. Don’t cry, girl…”
“Everything can be resolved, can we stop crying?”
Old Wu looked helpless. He turned to look at Gui You, who had suddenly taken two steps away from him and was looking at him coldly with his arms crossed. He looked for help and signaled Gui You to pull Su Xiaolu away.
Gui You’s expression was calm as he turned a blind eye to it. When he lowered his eyes, the tip of his tongue touched his cheek and his lips pursed into a small arc.
Su Xiaolu cried and wiped her snot and tears on Old Wu’s body. Then, she sniffed and said with red eyes, “Master, Master Gui You, did you come to see me?”
Old Wu nodded. “I haven’t seen you in a few years, so I specially came to take a look. I calculated the time and thought that the results of the imperial examination were out, so I came to take a look.”
The little girl had grown much taller after not seeing her for a few years. Her once chubby cheeks had already lost weight.
That innocent and carefree innocence was gone.
The little girl was sad. Because she knew more things, she was more and more worried.
“Tell Master, what happened to make you so sad?”
Old Wu asked with concern. After all, she was his only disciple. Although it was rare, he treasured her very much. Seeing Su Xiaolu cry sadly, Old Wu’s heart ached.
As Su Xiaolu walked, she told Old Wu and Gui You about this matter.
Gui You did not say anything and remained silent.
Old Wu sighed and said, “Girl, the hardest thing to say in this world is love. There are countless complicated struggles that make people feel pain and joy. Your parents are not strong-tempered people, but they have their own reasons for everything they do. They only make decisions after weighing the pros and cons.”
“As a daughter, it’s reasonable for you to worry and care about them.”
Old Wu couldn’t help but reach out and rub Su Xiaolu’s hair. He was kind and gentle.
“We’ll also do everything we can for the sake of not regretting it in our hearts, not to stop anything. Your parents no longer need anyone to make decisions for them. Whatever decision they want to make, respect and accept it. Master can only say this to you. After this matter is settled, bid them farewell and go out to wander in this vast world.”
After Old Wu finished speaking, he smiled gently at Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu nodded. “Yes, thank you, Master.”
Su Xiaolu felt much better after expressing her emotions.
After not seeing Old Wu for many years, the joy was already greater than the sadness.
Su Xiaolu grabbed Old Wu’s hand and took his pulse.
Old Wu stroked his beard and said, “How is it? Is my body okay?”
Su Xiaolu nodded. “Master, you’re in good health.”
There was nothing wrong with Old Wu’s body, but he was not strong either.
Birth, old age, illness, and death were natural laws that all living creatures could not escape.
No one was an exception.
Su Xiaolu looked at Gui You. “Master Gui You, are you feeling well?”
Gui You said calmly, “Very well.”
Old Wu blew at his beard. “Good my ass. Not long ago, we encountered a group of mountain bandits in the mountains and almost couldn’t win. If not for my resourcefulness, we would have died.”
“Yeah.”
Gui You agreed softly.
Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but ask, “Master, what was the situation? Is there anyone Master Gui You can’t defeat?”
Old Wu coughed lightly and said, “It’s just a bandit nest. There were only a few hundred people. Someone inside was sick. I happened to be captured while picking herbs. When Gui You came to save me, he barged in and killed a few hundred people, but he couldn’t save me. Instead, he angered the entire nest. In the end, I tampered with the water source and poisoned them.”
