Chapter 31 Past Events
Susan wiped her face with her sleeve, "If you want to hear the story after eating a few buns of you? That's too easy."
Li Dahang took out the silver notes he had just obtained, "I heard what I want to hear, I will give this to you."
A smile appeared on Susan's face. After taking the silver note, she cleared her throat and began to tell stories.
Su Anming, the first musician of the Ming Dynasty, was over fifty years old but had no children and only had one daughter.
This only daughter has always caused him a headache. Su Anming has a deep understanding of music theory, but his daughter is a naughty and unprofitable little witch.
Su Anming had no choice but to give birth to this daughter, and beating and scolding would only make her feel distressed, so she spoiled her lawlessly.
When she was fourteen years old, a new mansion was built near her house. It was said that the third prince Zhu Chan was named the prince, so the Ministry of Internal Affairs allocated funds to build a new mansion.
The two families became neighbors very close, and the third prince liked music theory, so they had frequent contacts. We saw a lot and met them like this.
I remember when I first met him, he was dressed in white, his eyebrows and eyes were three-dimensional, and his sick look was pale. Although his voice was soft and crisp, he could not hide his weakness.
When he saw her, he was surprised for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Are you a naughty boy that Mr. Su often mentioned? But the appearance is born from the heart. Your appearance is very beautiful. How could you be as nonsense as the rumors?"
Susan glanced around his face, engraved his facial features and smiled in his mind, and said with a smile, "Are you the third prince that my father often mentioned? But your appearance is very young, how could you become a prince?"
Su Anming was startled and hurriedly apologized, saying that the childish girl was ignorant and said that she was rude and angry that she was rude and reached out to grab her ear and asked her to kneel down and bow.
Zhu Chan laughed loudly, waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay. How lucky is the sir, it's really awesome to make the daughter extremely intelligent."
After that, she often went to him. When the perfume pears in summer were ripe, she wanted to pick two for him to taste, but she fell from the tree and sprained her feet.
"It's all this pear tree is not good, why do you do it if you grow so tall?" She complained while looking at the perfume pear tree, rubbing her sprained left foot.
"Of course it is bad, which makes us Susan hurt her feet. I'll let someone cut it a few inches away tomorrow?" Zhu Chan walked up, smiled at her dotingly, leaned down and grabbed her left foot, took off her shoes and socks.
Susan shrank her feet awkwardly, dodged and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore..."
"It's all swollen, why doesn't it hurt?" He pinched her jade feet, took out the ointment, and gently applied it to her.
"Brother Chan, I saw the woman's feet and wanted to marry her..." She bit her lip and said embarrassedly.
He put her shoes and socks on again, raised a faint smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "What should I do? I have seen it even if I don't want to see it. Susan, do you think there is anyone else who wants you besides me?"
"No more." She said hurriedly.
After saying that, she saw that he was unmoved, and she felt a little disappointed, regretful and annoyed, and stumbled with her fingers, "I won't tell others, you, you don't have to mind..."
"But I mind," he looked at her, with a sincere smile in his black eyes, "Wait two months later, when you reach the age of marriage, I will propose marriage to your father, okay?" He stroked her hair, his eyes full of infinite pampering.
She immediately blushed and lowered her head and let him pull herself into his arms.
When summer came, his illness improved a lot and his complexion improved a lot. When he was walking with her, he talked about the customs and customs of various places. He said that he would take her to all places to see after getting married.
She knew that he was weak and sickly. Although he did not tell her, she knew from her father that the disease was brought out of the womb and was a symptom of heat and cold, so he could neither get cold nor dare to overheat, otherwise the disease would occur.
In addition to the capital, there will be ice in summer and furnaces in winter. Where can there be so many imperial doctors who can be dispatched to treat them at any time?
She shook her head and hugged him tightly. She didn't ask for a trip to the mountains and rivers, she just wanted him to have a safe life. Even if she was here to stay lonely and end her old age, it would be good.
"What happened later?"
She looked up at the stars in the sky and tried very hard not to let the tears fall in her eyes. "Later you didn't know everything, he was dead, I left."
"Didn't the condition improve?"
"It was killed by someone."
"Who is it?" he frowned. "With your nature, how could you not avenge him?"
"Because," she smiled at him, tears falling from her eyes and splashing her clothes, "I was the one who harmed him."
I still remember that day, her father took out a good tangerine and said it was the relic of her dead mother.
Su Anming said to Zhu Chan, "Play a song, it can be regarded as telling Susan's mother."
Zhu Chan thought about it, gently hooked the strings of the piano with his fingers, and played the song "Flowers and Moons". After playing it, Su Anming said he was tired and asked him to go back first.
As she sent him out, he smiled and held her hand tightly, saying, "Susan, wait for me to pick you up."
...
"Is that piano wrong?" Li Dahang put his robe on Susan's shoulders.
Susan smiled bitterly, her eyes faintly red, "Li Dahang, how good it would be if Zhu Chan was half as smart as you... I couldn't wait for him to marry me, but I just waited until the news that he suddenly relapsed and died. Later, I saw something in front of my mother's tablet and wanted to touch the Tongmuqin. When my father found out, he snatched the piano in shock and threw it into the fire and burned it. I originally thought that he didn't want me to be too sad, so I did this. It was not until one day when he heard him telling this about it in front of my mother's spiritual position that he realized that the strings were heavily poisonous!"
"Why did your father do this?"
"I don't know. I had a big argument with him. He said that I couldn't recognize people and was used by others. I was very sad and said that I should not be his daughter from now on. He slapped me hard, and just like that, I left the Su family."
The father who loved her for many years was the murderer who killed her lover. Who can she seek to avenge her?
Li Dahang pondered for a while, "Did you miss something?"
"How do you know?" Susan widened her eyes and smiled bitterly with self-deprecating, "My father had no intention of letting me be with Zhu Chan at all. He also said that he had made a marriage for me since he was a child. It was ridiculous. In his eyes, what is my happiness?"
"It's said it was an uncle's son. I met him when I was a child. Maybe it was a false thing, and I had no impression of it. What's the point of blind marriage and mute marriage? Do you think it's?"
"It's really not interesting." Li Dahang's lips moved, but his smile was not in his eyes. "Work a wife and ask for a lady. If you marry you, you will only shout that you are fooled."
