"No, you didn't misjudge me in the past." Jiujiu walked in front of Xiao Yu and looked at Xiao Yu's face, which had become a little oily because of his pampered life. She smiled and said, "I was really stupid in the past. I actually gave you most of my family's money to go to the capital for you to take the imperial exam. I almost starved to death in that drought."
Jiujiu's words made Xiao Yu think of the drought in his hometown two years ago.
At that time, he had been sent by the imperial court to bring food to the disaster relief.
At that time, he was only a few dozen li away from his hometown. As long as he was willing, he could definitely ask someone to quietly give some food to his family.
However, he wasn't willing.
If he asked someone to give some food to his family, people would definitely ask who those people were. If the news that it was his family spread, his reputation would be completely ruined.
After struggling for a long time between his reputation and his family, Xiao Yu finally chose his reputation and gave up on his family that was related to him by blood.
"What happened to my father and mother?"
"Didn't I say that the drought almost took my life? I was already like this at such a young age. Guess what happened to your parents, who fell ill in order to raise money for you to go to the capital to take the imperial exam?"
Although Jiujiu didn't say it explicitly, she told Xiao Yu almost bluntly.
Your parents are long dead.
The moment he learned that his parents were dead, Xiao Yu's heart didn't feel uneasy. Instead, there was a strange kind of secret joy.
He was secretly happy that his parents were both dead. Then, from now on, no one in the world would know about the choice he made back then.
Seeing that Xiao Yu lowered his head and didn't say anything, Jiujiu smiled softly. "Xiao Yu, I really regret it. I regret that I was blind to fall in love with a scum like you. You can even disregard your own parents for money and fame. It really refreshes my understanding. Guess, if you could do it all over again, would your parents have strangled you to death when you were born?"
Hearing Jiujiu attribute his parents' deaths to him, Xiao Yu didn't even think to refute it.
"You're just making empty promises. Naturally, you can say whatever you want. How would I know that you didn't starve my parents to death on purpose?" Xiao Yu looked at Jiujiu with hatred. "It must be because my parents didn't want you to remarry. In order to remarry, you deliberately starved my parents to death. You vicious woman."
"That sounds fresh."
Jiujiu had long lost hope in Xiao Yu, a man who could abandon his parents, for the values of the world.
However, he was a little shocked by Xiao Yu's ability to make false accusations.
It was clear that he had abandoned his parents for fame and fortune, causing his parents to die early. How could it be that Jiujiu had deliberately caused the deaths of his parents in order to remarry? It was really the biggest joke in the world.
Jiujiu was about to die of laughter because of Xiao Yu.
"Should I say that you're really a scholar? Your ability to shift the blame is good." Jiujiu laughed mockingly. "First of all, that's because your parents aren't my parents. Second, you've already abandoned me. You don't even care about your parents, yet you still want me to help you miss your parents. How can I be so kind? Third, others don't know why your parents died, but you know it clearly in your heart.
You had to go to the capital to take the imperial examination. There was no money at home. They worked hard and got sick. When the drought came, there was no food. I gave them all the rice grains of porridge every day. The two children were so hungry that they cried. Even so, they didn't die.
What's more, your parents died in front of me. I remarried last year. Moreover, the person your parents were most worried about before they died was me. They repeatedly told me not to wrong myself if I wanted to remarry.
Your parents wanted me to remarry. Instead, it was you, a heartless person, who kept saying that I killed your parents and that I would do anything to remarry.
Between the two of us, he knew very well which one of us was the heartless one. "
Xiao Yu was rendered speechless by Jiujiu's words.
Even so, he was still able to convince himself that it wasn't his fault.
Even if his parents knew in the underworld, they would forgive him for what he did in order to climb up. On the other hand, Jiujiu.
Before he left, he left his parents in her care. She was still alive, but her parents died. It was her fault.
Xiao Yu glared fiercely at Jiujiu. He gritted his teeth and said, "Now that my parents are dead, you can say whatever you want. Although my parents weren't in good health, they weren't very old. If it was really like what you said, how could they die because of such a little thing? It must be because you didn't give my parents food in order to live, so they starved to death.
No matter how much you say, it can't change the fact that you're a vicious woman. "
Jiujiu didn't expect that Xiao Yu would still say such things about her even after she had said so much. She really laughed.
Since the other party was so shameless, there was no need for her to continue to reason with him.
Jiujiu sneered and looked at Xiao Yu. "Just as you said, your parents are dead. You can say whatever you want. But Xiao Yu, if I tell others that you abandoned your parents in order to climb up the social ladder with Pang Wan, what do you think will happen to you?"
Jiujiu's words were like a knife stabbing into Xiao Yu's heart.
If others knew about this, he was afraid that he would be drowned in their spittle.
Moreover, the current Emperor ruled the country with filial piety. If the Emperor found out that he abandoned his parents in order to climb up the social ladder, not only would his future be ruined, he might even lose his head.
Xiao Yu was shocked and scared. He hurriedly looked at Jiujiu and said, "Aren't you afraid that Xiang Bei will divorce you if he finds out?"
In response to Xiao Yu's threat, Jiujiu smiled confidently. "He won't."
Not to mention that Xiang Bei didn't know about her previous experience, even if he knew, Xiang Bei would only feel more sorry for her.
Jiujiu's confident look stung Xiao Yu's eyes.
Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and said, "He's a man, and so am I. No one knows what a man thinks better than me. Even if he keeps saying that he won't abandon you, I know that if he finds out about what happened between you and me, he'll definitely abandon you. He might even divorce you."
At the thought of Xiang Bei divorcing Jiujiu, Xiao Yu felt strangely satisfied.
Jiujiu smiled contemptuously at Xiao Yu's threat. "If he finds out about our relationship, he will definitely be unhappy. But he will definitely not be unhappy about me. He will be unhappy about you, you b * tch. He will only feel sorry for all the hardships I have suffered before. He won't abandon me. Do you know why?"
Jiujiu looked at Xiao Yu and said word by word, "Because he is not as despicable as you. He won't do shameless things like you."
