Chapter 244 Bai Su is disappointed with Xiao Yan
"Haha~~~Just you?" Madam Su had already mocked the person in front of her and was no longer patient.
She just used the pear tree branch in her hand to touch Xiao Yan's wrist without any hesitation...
The wooden sword that Xiao Yan had been holding tightly in his hand fell on the stone slab in the yard with a "thump".
"You can't even hold a sword steady?"
"What qualifications do you have to talk about protecting her?"
"She's afraid that once you show up, she'll have to divert her attention to protect you. If she's not careful, you'll implicate her..."
"Just like..." Madam Su met Xiao Yan's eyes of resistance and said without any concern: "Your family members who died in Lijia Village!"
Xiao Yan was so frightened by Su Niangzi's words that he broke out in a cold sweat and his body couldn't stop shaking: "No... Impossible..."
That night became Xiao Yan’s unforgettable nightmare.
Those memories are buried deep in people's hearts. Xiao Yan doesn't want to be seen, and usually pretends that he doesn't care.
But it is this disguise that allows those memories to take root in my heart...
Those nightmares rotted at the branches, making it difficult for the entire tree to grow.
"Impossible?" Madam Su seemed to have heard a joke: "Then tell me, why do you practice martial arts?"
At this moment, Xiao Yan was really about to be driven crazy by Madam Su.
She didn't understand why this person insisted on making her answer a question that had already been answered.
Could it be that... she was not satisfied with my answer?
Obviously, for a question like this...even the answer is not fixed!
The answer is different for different people.
Why... do you still want to ask?
But this time, Madam Su did not wait for Xiao Yan to answer, but spoke on her own.
"Yan means fire, and comes from the three fires."
"Bai Yan, look at the sun above your head!" Madam Su's voice could not be refused.
Xiao Yan was already looking shaky, and when he looked up he was dazzled by the glaring sunlight.
Out of instinct, she could only stretch out her arms to cover it.
"How...it looks just like the fire that burned you to death!" Mrs. Su's voice made the dazzling man break free and stare at her sharply.
Madam Su's expression did not change much: "There are tens of thousands of pitiful people in this world. Do you really want your sister Yun to find them all one by one?"
"No! Sister Yun she...she..." Since when, Xiao Yan no longer had the final say in controlling his emotions.
It all depends on Madam Su.
"She should always keep you in her heart!" Lady Su directly pointed out: "She gave you a name and a new identity in the hope that you would not be like that fire."
"She hopes you will be reborn from the ashes!"
"But what about you?" Madam Su looked at her like she was trash: "You rely on her soft-heartedness and live in the past with a clear conscience..."
"The fire in Lijia Village will be your excuse for the rest of your life in front of her!"
"No! No..." Xiao Yan fell to the ground and looked at Madam Su in fear.
"Her hopes for you, like the real Bai Yan, were burned to ashes by that fire!"
"No!" Xiao Yan shouted at the top of his lungs: "Sister Yun... she won't do that!"
Bai Qingyun looked for a long time, his brows still furrowed.
After Mrs. Su finished speaking, she sat back down at the stone table and made herself a cup of tea, paying no attention to the person who had collapsed on the ground.
"Bai Yan, since I am your master, I naturally have expectations of you."
There was undisguised disappointment in Ms. Su's voice.
"Bai Yi is right. You have a talent for martial arts, but that's just talent."
"You rely on this talent, but you have no intention of going further. Your talent is just a tool for you to be lazy!"
Xiao Yan was somewhat caught off guard.
.
"Xiao Yan, your moves are good, but your punches should be more powerful!" Bai Yi's gentle voice came from the memories.
"Sir, why do you demand strength when everyone can't do the movements correctly?"
Bai Yi was helpless: "Okay, you are still young, take your time!"
Such scenes happen almost every day between Xiao Yan and Bai Yi.
~
Madam Su’s words brought Xiao Yan back to reality.
"I asked you why you practiced martial arts, but you refused to answer."
"I didn't!" Xiao Yan argued in a low voice. I clearly answered it... more than once.
"You said you learned martial arts for the young lady, but have you ever asked the young lady why she wanted you to learn martial arts?"
"Because... Sister Yun wants me to have something to do and not be bound by the past!"
Xiao Yan's mind was filled with the images of Bai Qingyun carefully accompanying her along the way.
Every night when the fire breaks out, this scene accompanies me.
"Puchi~" Lady Su laughed sarcastically: "She is such a...stupid one!"
When Xiao Yan heard Madam Su scolding Bai Qingyun, he looked over with some displeasure, even though that person was his master.
However, Madam Su has never taken such looks seriously.
"You said she wanted you to have something to do, so why... didn't she just let you learn needlework in your room like an ordinary girl?"
"Do you really have to suffer every day and practice martial arts?"
Others couldn't see it clearly, but Bai Su could see it just by taking a walk around the Bai family.
I'm afraid that the construction of this martial arts training ground was all motivated by Bai Qingyun's selfish motives.
She wanted the women in this world to live differently.
The location of the martial arts training ground was far away from the courtyards of his three brothers, but it was right next to the little girl's courtyard, only separated by a wall!
But a bystander sees more clearly than a participant.
"Why?" Xiao Yan looked at Madam Su in confusion, her eyes full of expectation. She also wanted to know.
"Because...she hopes you can protect the people you want to protect!"
"Like, that night!"
"Instead of hiding in a dark corner and giving up on yourself."
"Bai Yan, if it weren't for her, you would never be able to get out of that cubicle. You would just hide in that small space and live a miserable life!"
"But she was still wrong! She rescued you, but you don't know why you are alive?"
"She hired famous teachers to teach you martial arts and literature, but you don't know why you are learning?"
"Isn't she stupid?"
These words were so sincere and heartfelt that even Bai Qingyun, who was hiding in a tree and eavesdropping, was deeply moved.
Xiao Yan was no longer as out of control as before, but calmed down and kept doubting herself: "Sister Yun~"
"That's all I have to say!" After finishing her last cup of tea, Madam Su stood up and said, "When you have thought it through, come back and see me!"
Then he left Xiao Yan alone in the yard and walked to the martial arts training ground next door.
Seeing this, Bai Qingyun hurriedly came down from the tree and turned to the front yard.
In the front yard, Village Chief Yang led many people past the Bai family’s door and went to the ancestral hall on the mountain.
Many tables and chairs of different sizes have been arranged inside the ancestral hall.
In the fields, every household picked up their hoes and started working.
