Chapter 756 Persuading Zhong Yixue
After leaving the mourning hall, Zhong's mother quietly took Jiang Suining and the others to the yard where Zhong Yixiu was imprisoned.
There were two servants guarding outside the courtyard gate. Zhong's mother stepped forward first and sent them away.
"Madam, the master ordered us to guard outside the yard. No one can go in without his order."
"Of course I know that it was the master's order, but the one locked up in the yard is the eldest daughter, my own daughter. Do you really treat her as a prisoner?" Zhong's mother said with a cold face.
"But the master said that no one can..."
"Isn't the door locked? I don't have the key. Are you afraid that I will let the person escape?" Mother Zhong interrupted the servant in a bad tone, "Or do you think you don't need to listen to me, the mistress of the house? Do you really think I can't deal with you?"
"Young ones don't dare!"
"Young ones don't dare!"
The two servants quickly shook their heads.
"Why don't you leave? I have something to say to the eldest lady alone. If I can persuade her to surrender, I can also give an explanation to the master!" Mother Zhong spoke again.
The two servants looked at each other and quickly retreated.
After they left, Zhong's mother called Jiang Suining and the others into the yard.
Because of the funeral, almost all the maids in the family were helping out in the front, so there was no one in the yard.
When I walked outside Zhong Yixiu's room, I saw that the windows were sealed and the door was locked.
Mother Zhong walked to the door and said to the inside of the room: "Yixue, mother is here to see you, are you okay?"
No one in the room answered, and Zhong's mother knocked on the door worriedly, "Yixue, did you hear that? If you did, answer your mother and don't scare me."
"Mother, I'm fine, you don't have to worry." Zhong Yixiu spoke weakly inside the room.
Zhong's mother felt so distressed when she heard the weak voice that she quickly took out the cakes hidden in her sleeves and stuffed them in through the crack of the door.
"Yixue, mother brought some cakes, you should eat some quickly."
"No need. If father knew about this, he would definitely be angry with you, mother."
"Don't be afraid, mother. If you continue to be so hungry, your body will definitely have problems. You..."
"Mother, I have already implicated Yi Yu, and I absolutely cannot implicate you again. I won't eat, please leave."
In the room, Zhong Yixiu curled up on the ground, feeling dizzy and dazed. She continued speaking with the last bit of strength she had.
"Mother, I am unfilial, but I really can't do what you asked me to do and go to the Marquis of Mingchang's mansion to kowtow and admit my fault. If I can't be by your side to take care of me, I hope you will forgive me."
Mother Zhong's heart was in her throat, and she quickly said, "Yixue, what nonsense are you talking about? Your sister has been in trouble, and now you are my only daughter, and nothing can happen to you!"
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Suining and the others, and then hurriedly said, "Yixue, Jiang Nuguan and the others are here. They must have something to tell you. You must not be confused."
Zhong Yixue was stunned. "Madam Jiang and the others?"
"Yes, Miss Zhong, we are here." Jiang Suining said.
Wei Yao and Lu Yan also hurriedly advised Zhong Yixiu not to be confused.
Listening to the voices of several people, Zhong Yixiu barely supported her body and walked to the door. Through the crack in the door, she saw Jiang Suining and the others.
"Mother, you must have brought them here secretly. If father knew, he would never allow them to come see me."
"Yes, mother brought them here secretly. You have always wanted to go to the Girls' Academy, but you must hold on. Nothing can happen to you."
"Mother, didn't you disagree with me before..."
"That was before. Now I just hope you're fine. Yixue, I know with your temper, you will never listen to your father's arrangement to kowtow and admit your mistakes. Your mother can't persuade you either. I just hope you can be fine, no matter if it's a girls' college or something else, you just have to be fine!" Zhong's mother's tone was full of tears, and she stretched out the pastry in her hand towards Zhong Yixue.
"Ms. Zhong, no one wants to see what's happening now, but if you really starve to death in your room like this, let alone your previous ambitions and goals, you won't even be able to see who killed your sister."
Jiang Suining's words made Zhong Yixiu's eyes tremble, and finally some vitality appeared in her eyes again, but it only lasted for a moment.
"According to my father's temper, he will never let me leave the house again. Rather than being locked up at home or forced to do things that I despise, it is better to just die. After I die, I can see Yiyu and apologize to her in person."
"Yixue, if something happens to you, what will happen to your mother?" Zhong's mother's eyes were full of tears. "I have already lost one daughter, and I absolutely cannot lose another. Yixue, just think of it as your mother's sake, and you must live well!"
"Mrs. Zhong is right. Even if it's for her, you should continue to persevere. Moreover, although you are locked up at home now, you may have the opportunity to go out in the future. As long as you are alive, there will be hope."
Jiang Suining looked at Zhong Yixiu seriously through the crack in the door.
"I believe you know this truth very well, but you are too sad about the Second Young Lady's incident, so you can't figure it out. But no matter what, if you starve to death like this, it will only make those who care about you more miserable, and it will not have the slightest effect."
"But Yiyu..."
"If you really feel guilty and insist on blaming yourself for this, then you should cheer up and help find the murderer to comfort your sister's soul in heaven."
"Sui Ning is right. Miss Zhong, if you die like this, and if you meet your sister in the afterlife, and she asks you whether the people who harmed her got retribution, how will you answer?" Wei Yao also spoke.
Lu Yan also advised: "Ms. Zhong, I have also experienced the pain of losing a family member. I understand how you feel at the moment, but you must cheer up, look forward, and move forward."
Zhong Yixiu stood at the door, looking at the light coming through the gap in the door, and the pastries that Zhong's mother was still holding. The tears that seemed to have been cried out in the past few days fell again.
After a while, she reached out and took the oil paper bag.
The pastries that usually taste soft, glutinous and sweet now taste extremely bitter when mixed with tears.
"Don't worry, mother. I will live well. They are right. I want to live and see with my own eyes the people who harmed Yi Yu go to hell!"
