Chapter 1235: Chapter 1235: Disappear Forever

“Really?” Su Xiaoya believed unconditionally in her heart that if Uncle was willing to protect her, then it must be something good and powerful.

This Uncle was different from others, more powerful than the rest.

“Of course, it’s true, but you have to be good from now on and visit Uncle often, okay?”

“Don’t worry! I’ll be good to Uncle, I’ll make sure Uncle is always happy and cheerful.” Su Xiaoya let out a big sigh of relief. The tension and fear in her heart had vanished, and she felt immensely happy and relaxed.

With her worries gone, she became much bolder in speaking.

Song Jinyan couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “You’re going to pamper Uncle too? Who did you learn that from?”

Su Xiaoya covered her mouth, leaned over to Song Jinyan’s ear, and whispered, “I’ll tell you, but you can’t tell my mother.”

“Alright, I won’t tell your mother.”

“I learned it from Little Aunt and Sixth Aunt. They’re like that, always trying to make Aunt Su Wen happy, pampering her until she’s delighted.”

“So you make your mother happy too?” Song Jinyan’s eyes held a hint of contemplation.

“Yes, indeed!”

“You’re doing a good job.” Indeed, Jing Xian had been much happier since adopting Xiaoya, “Keep up the good work.”

“I will.”

“Then tell Uncle, why were you worried about being sold before? Was it because of your stepmother’s cruelty, or why was Little Sister Su worried? Both her father and mother are gone, who else would sell her?” Song Jinyan’s gaze grew intense and deep.

It was like a storm wrapped in shadows, dark and frightening, yet contained.

Su Xiaoya became somewhat puzzled and bewildered when it came to this topic, tilting her head and thinking for a long time before she stammered, “I don’t know exactly who it was, some said it was Sister Su Wen, but I know Sister Su Wen is very kind to little sister.”

“Because it wasn’t just one person, you can’t name anyone, right?” Song Jinyan gently prodded.

“Right!” Su Xiaoya’s eyes lit up, she looked up at Song Jinyan with admiration, thinking to herself that Uncle was so impressive, so smart!

“Who are these people?” Song Jinyan asked quietly, signaling Jing Xian with a gesture to stay silent.

Jing Xian, brimming with questions, could only stand aside and hold her peace.

“There’s Little Aunt’s grandparents, and there are uncles and aunts, and Third grandma, Seventh great uncle…” Xiaoya counted on her fingers, one by one. Although she was young, a child’s intuition is the sharpest.

Who was good to them and who was not, they often understood better than adults.

“Anyway, many people were mean to my aunts, saying nasty things. They even wanted Aunt Su Wen to divorce her husband and remarry a man from an outside village.”

Su Xiaoya wrinkled her nose in disgust, “Uncle, let me tell you, that man from the outside village is called Zhao Jiangang, and he’s really bad. They have no good intentions; fortunately, Aunt Su Wen was smart enough not to be deceived.”

Song Jinyan painfully closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the intense emotions had vanished without a trace.

He knew why these people were unkind to the Su sisters. It was because they all knew the truth; they all had taken part in the baby-switching and impersonation that had happened decades ago. They had committed sins together and also reaped the benefits together.

The longer the time passed, the tighter the shackles in their hearts became.

No doubt, the better Su Xuewen did, the more afraid they must have been, right?

With Su Xuewen gone, his children were like lost lambs, and in those people’s eyes, nothing was more reassuring than having them disappear forever.

“Songshan, check out this Zhao Jiangang.”

“Yes!”
