Knot in the Heart

It was only the day before Su Yuan’s trial that Bai Yurou came to visit her. She chuckled and threw her a suicide note, telling her that her mother had been calling her name until her death. It turned out that her mother was not cruel. It was because she was seriously ill and was afraid of implicating her that she sent her to the Bai family. In order not to let her find out the truth, she was afraid that she would feel guilty, so she had cut off contact.

Su Qiumeng had long known that Bai Weiguang was not a good person, but she felt that it was better for her daughter to live a good life in the village. Otherwise, she would not be at ease if her daughter lived alone in the village.

However, because of this, Su Yuan did not even know when her mother passed away. Under such a blow, she lost her will to survive. During the trial the next day, she directly admitted to the crime of murder and was sentenced to 12 years in prison.

Su Qiumeng was Su Yuan’s closest person in this world, and her death was the last straw that broke Su Yuan’s heart. Every time Su Yuan thought about it, she would be in so much pain that she could not breathe. Hence, in this life, no matter what, she had to cure her mother’s illness and live well with her.

Finally, they arrived at her own courtyard. The door was not locked. Su Yuan took a deep breath for a long time before she mustered the courage to push the door open and walk in. The yard was still the same as she remembered. It was very clean and tidy by her mother, and a few tender yellow chicks were running around in the yard. Su Yuan really liked raising these chickens and ducks, not for food, but because she felt that the house was quiet and lively with more animals. She walked to the door of the house, but before she entered the house, a faint medicinal fragrance floated out of the house. “Mom, I’m back, open the door!” Su Yuan quickly knocked on the door.

At first, there were footsteps in the room, then a series of violent coughs. Su Yuan immediately panicked and continued to knock on the door. “Mom, are you okay? What happened to you?” She asked.

After a while, the coughing stopped and the door opened. Su Qiumeng looked at Su Yuan and asked in disbelief, “Su Yuan, why did you…”

From her previous life until now, Su Yuan had not seen her mother for more than ten years. She immediately rushed into her mother’s arms and hugged her tightly. With a trembling voice, she said, “Mom, I finally get to see you, mom…” She said.

Su Qiumeng had wanted to reprimand her daughter for coming back, but seeing how agitated her daughter was, she swallowed those cold words back. She had not seen her daughter for two years, and she could not stop thinking about it. However, every time she called to ask about her daughter’s situation, she would be scolded. She was afraid that her daughter’s life in the Bai family would be difficult because of this, so she did not dare to call the Bai family again. If she really missed her daughter, she would take out her daughter’s childhood photos and look at them repeatedly. Now that she was holding her daughter, she felt like she was in a dream. It was her daughter’s birthday yesterday, and she was still mumbling in her heart, wondering if her daughter had a happy 18th birthday.

Su Qiumeng could not care less at this moment. She held her daughter’s face in her hands and asked with tears in her eyes, “My good daughter, let me see if you’ve lost weight. Did you have a happy birthday yesterday? I have a present for you, you…”

Su Yuan listened to her mother’s long-winded words and looked at her face. She had never felt so at ease before. This was the happiest moment since her rebirth. God was really fair for once. She could no longer suppress the joy in her heart. Tears of happiness flowed out of her eyes. She was really too happy! As long as her mother was still alive, her rebirth would only be meaningful!

Su Qiumeng looked at her daughter’s tear-streaked face and frowned. “What’s wrong, Su Yuan? Did someone bully you? Did you suffer in the Bai family?”

Su Yuan was crying uncontrollably, but she shook her head with a smile. Su Qiumeng looked at her daughter crying and laughing at the same time, and she was a little confused. She asked anxiously, “Did your dad bully you? Or your stepmother? Say something, Little Yuan. Do you want your mother to die of anxiety?”

Su Qiumeng’s heart ached and she was anxious. Her daughter had always been strong and rarely cried since she was young. For her to suddenly cry like this, she must have suffered a great grievance. Looking at her daughter, she felt as if a knife was being twisted in her heart. For the first time in two years, she doubted whether she had made the right decision and whether she should have sent her daughter away. As she held her daughter’s hand, she picked up the broom by the door and said, “Let’s go, Su Yuan. Mommy will bring you to the Bai family and settle the score with those bastards. Who asked them to bully my daughter? I’ll fight it out with them!”

“Mom.” Su Yuan knelt down in front of Su Qiumeng and cried, “Mom, why did you hide your illness from me?” This was a knot in Su Yuan’s heart in her previous life, and now she finally had the chance to ask her mother.
