Sorry, My Wife Has a Hole in Her Brain Chapter 3 Part 2

Nightfall.

Su Wenqing came out of the room stealthily, holding a food box. The night in ancient times was beautiful and soft. The bright moon hung in the quiet night sky as if within reach. The stars were like silver beads, inlaid in the dark blue night sky, shining brightly.

The Su Mansion was very large, with a winding corridor in the backyard, a stone path under the steps, three gates with hanging flowers, green willows hanging around the walls, roses all over the garden, and a rockery more than ten meters high that was majestic and tall. There was a lotus pond with winding paths and flowing water at the foot of the fake mountain. The entire courtyard is unique and exquisite.

But Su Wenqing was obviously not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the Su Mansion. She walked along the corridors and hallways and stood under a plaque engraved with "Qin Qiang" characters and felt like crying but had no tears. If she remembered correctly, this was the sixth time she stood there. This sad realization made her once again certain that she was lost.

Moreover, given the complexity of the Su Mansion, she believed that this situation would definitely happen again in the future. She didn't want to think about it anymore for fear of losing her confidence in life.

In desperation, she could only ask for help from the servants in the mansion. The reason certainly couldn't be that she was lost. It was horrifying to think that the third miss of the Su family got lost in the backyard of her own home where she had lived for more than ten years!

So, when she weakly asked the servant if he could take her to the ancestral hall because she was afraid of the dark, the servant did not doubt at all and took her to the ancestral hall without saying a word.

The Su family was one of the five great families in the Southern Dynasty. Their ancestors had produced three prime ministers. Hanging in the ancestral hall was a large plaque with nine red dragons on a green background bestowed by the late emperor. The couplet on the main door was an ebony plaque inlaid with silver.

To be honest, if Su Wenqing hadn't been worried that Su Jinsheng would kneel alone in the ancestral hall, suffering from hunger and cold and quietly turning evil, she would never have wanted to come to such a gloomy place so late at night.

After Su Wenqing went over what she was going to say in her mind, she quietly opened the door of the ancestral hall. She poked her head in and was startled by the wall of memorial tablets that suddenly came into her sight.

Su Wenqing was not a staunch atheist. She believed in the theory of evolution, but she also feared ghosts and gods. She looked at the black and gold-inlaid memorial tablets on the wall and felt that there were pairs of eyes staring at her.

She gritted her teeth and walked in. Su Jinsheng was wearing a moon-colored cloud silk skirt today, with two hanging buns on her head, and emerald flowered glass hairpins with small diamond tassels on both sides. Her back was noble and graceful, and she was as tall and straight as a winter plum even when kneeling on the cold stone slabs.

Su Wenqing showed a kind smile and tried her best to make her voice sound caring. "Big sister, you must be hungry. I brought you some food."

Su Jinsheng knelt on the cold stone slab with her back to her without saying a word, and even the tassels on the glass hairpin in her hair did not shake.

Su Wenqing touched her nose awkwardly. She quietly closed the door, gently opened the lunch box and placed it in front of Su Jinsheng. She smiled and said, "Big sister, you haven't eaten for a whole day. Eat something."

Su Jinsheng's dark and deep almond-shaped eyes revealed a bit of intimidating sharpness, "What do you want to do now?"

Well, with her long criminal record, it seemed that this relationship will have to be repaired slowly.

Su Wenqing showed a guilty expression and confessed: "I came here today to apologize to you."

Su Jinsheng narrowed the eyes on her oval face, and her eyes were full of vigilance and disbelief.

Su Wenqing lowered her head slightly: "Sister, do you know? In fact, I have always been jealous of you. You are extremely beautiful, and you are proficient in everything. People in Anjing City only know the eldest daughter Su Jinsheng when they mention the Su family. No matter how hard I try, no matter how hard I try to catch up, I can't compare to you. No one has ever noticed me when I was around you, so I became unwilling and jealous."

Full marks for the rainbow fart, the first step is perfect!

*Rainbow fart: a compliment given in an intentionally exaggerated and silly way

"Now that I think about it, this idea is really childish. You and I are blood relatives, and we are sisters who are connected by blood. Sisters prosper together and suffer together. If we fight to the death under the same roof, it will only make others laugh at our Su family. The decline of a big family always starts from the inside out. If we sisters can't support each other, who else can we trust in the vast sea of ​​people?"

The family card is perfect, and her second step is perfect!

"I used to have a narrow vision and did many foolish things, but Confucius once said that jealousy..." What is jealousy? Never mind, "jealousy makes people ugly, so I have come to my senses today. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive me."

I didn’t study much, so I can barely get 99 points in the third step...

Su Jinsheng's red lips curled up into a mocking smile, "If I remember correctly, two hours ago, you falsely accused me of pushing you into the water in front of half of the dignitaries in Anjing City and gave everyone the impression that I was unruly and domineering."

Su Wenqing spouted nonsense with a sincere face: "Today's incident is all my fault. I only realized it after it happened. If I make such a fuss, others will not only think that you are making things difficult for me, but also think that the daughters of the Su family are ignorant of etiquette. After I went back to my room, I thought about it and felt more and more guilty. So, I came here to ask for your forgiveness first, and then I will explain the situation to Father later."

Su Jinsheng frowned slightly, as if she was trying to discern the truth in Su Wenqing's words. In her previous life, she had regarded Su Wenqing as her closest sister and could talk about anything with her. She had even believed her one-sided story when the Third Prince took her as a concubine. She had really thought that the Third Prince had forced her. She had had a big quarrel with the Third Prince for Su Wenqing, which had led to the miscarriage of the baby in her belly. In the end, she had realized that all this was just a trap set by Su Wenqing.

Su Jinsheng would never forget the look on her face as her own sister had stood in front of her and had had her flesh cut off piece by piece. She had sworn at that time that if there was an afterlife, she would make her pay for her blood with blood.

But the Su Wenqing now is obviously not the Su Wenqing in her memory. The Su Wenqing in her memory would rather die than say something like "I'm jealous of you". Could it be that because he has been reborn, many things have changed?

Su Wenqing saw the hesitation that flashed across Su Jinsheng's eyes and she knew that there was still hope. "I know I have a bad record. It must be hard for you to trust me all of a sudden, but time will tell. I will let you see that I am sincere in my decision to change my ways."

Su Jinsheng was suspicious, and for a moment she was not sure what Su Wenqing was trying to do. In her memory, Su Wenqing had always looked weak in front of others, which had made people want to protect her. But the Su Wenqing in front of her was different. Besides, when did Confucius say that "jealousy makes people ugly"?

Su Wenqing pushed the food box in front of Su Jinsheng with a sincere look on her face. "Even if you can't trust me for the time being, you don't need to ruin your body. I'll leave the food box here for you to eat. I'll go and admit to father that I deliberately framed you for what happened today."

Su Jinsheng became even more suspicious. This was the first time since her rebirth that she felt things were out of control. Did that Su Wenqing change after her rebirth or was she trying to play some tricks again?

Su Wenqing stood up from the ground and thought happily in her mind that after she finished explaining to her father, Su Jinsheng would begin to believe her. Once she took the first, most critical step, everything else would be easy. She could already see the magnificent carriage pulled by four horses and the little male pets waving at her.

Su Wenqing was delighted and her tone was a little lighter, "Then I'll go, sister!"

As soon as Su Wenqing finished speaking, the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open with a "bang". Su Wenqing was suddenly horrified to find that her body became out of control!

She watched helplessly as her body fell flat on the ground in a gorgeous manner, and when she fell to the ground, she tripped over the food box. She covered her chest uncontrollably, her eyes were full of tears, and her voice was weak and trembling, "Big sister, why do you have to do this? I really came here to bring you food out of kindness."

Su Yu saw this scene as soon as he pushed the door open. The little bit of pity in his heart was immediately washed away by anger. He said angrily: "Su Jinsheng! Is this how you reflect on your mistakes?!"

The slight hesitation in Su Jinsheng's eyes disappeared, and she returned to the coldness she had when Su Wenqing first came in. She lowered her eyes and glanced at Su Wenqing coldly. So that's it.

Su Wenqing roared in her heart: It’s not me! I didn't! Listen to my explanation!
