Chapter 194 My Mother Was a Heartthrob in the 1980s
"Qingzhou's mom, you're back!"
Aunt Liu, who was washing clothes, greeted Si Yan as soon as she returned.
"Yes, the child finally comes home for summer vacation, so we have to make him something delicious."
Si Yan replied and then turned and went home.
After she left, Aunt Bai, who was next to Aunt Liu, stared at Si Yan's back for a long time with curiosity.
"Hey, Sister Liu, why is Si Yan always covering her face? I've been in this compound for almost half a year, and I still haven't seen what she looks like."
Aunt Bai turned to Aunt Liu and asked.
"Hey, don't even mention you. I've known Si Yan for years, and I still don't know what she looks like."
Aunt Liu, engrossed in washing clothes, casually remarked.
"However, I have a question that has puzzled me for a long time: Si Yan has always been doing odd jobs, so how did she get the right to be allocated a house in the compound?"
Aunt Bai leaned closer to Aunt Liu and asked in a low voice.
"You've misunderstood. That house doesn't belong to her; she rented it out."
"Oh, but that house is so nice, who would rent it out?"
Aunt Bai felt a pang of regret whenever she thought about the big house. If she had found out sooner, her younger brother might have had a place to live.
"I don't know the specifics, I only know that the house used to be where the leaders of the machinery factory lived. Later, Si Yan happened to save the elderly person in the leader's family, and they rented the house to Si Yan. I heard that the rent was very cheap."
After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she looked envious. What difference was there between this and a white house?
"No wonder Si Yan was able to support her son through college. I used to suspect that she might be someone else's lover."
Aunt Bai pouted and said irritably.
"You're overthinking it. Si Yan must be really ugly to have her face covered like that. These days, pretty girls are practically begging to go on stage and become famous."
Aunt Liu glanced at Si Yan's house with a hint of pity. She was too ugly, no one could even introduce her to a potential partner. But the widow on the next street had countless suitors.
The Si Yan they were talking about had just finished receiving the storyline.
This storyline is related to the original owner's appearance. The original owner was disfigured when she was young, and in a moment of desperation, she plotted against the person she liked and had a child with him.
At that time, the original owner was afraid of being discovered by others, so she left her hometown while pregnant and came to Haishi, a city with spring-like weather all year round.
Life was going well like this, but during this summer vacation, the original owner accidentally revealed her true appearance to her son Si Qingzhou's former classmates and was subjected to malicious insults.
Si Qingzhou got into an argument with someone in a fit of anger, and was injured in the spine, resulting in paralysis. She will be bedridden for the rest of her life.
But Si Qingzhou's promising future was ruined just like that. The original owner was filled with remorse, while the guy who hurt her son used his connections to get released after only a few days in jail.
The original owner was a person who made a living by doing odd jobs and was also taking care of a son who was paralyzed in bed. You can imagine how difficult life would be for the mother and son in the future.
Therefore, after Si Yan arrived, she could clearly sense the resentment left behind by the original owner, as well as her concern for her appearance.
[Host, your son Si Qingzhou's greatest wish is for his mother to be able to show her face openly and live a happy life.]
[Xiao Qi, did the original owner ever show her true face to his son?]
Si Yan asked curiously.
No, from childhood to adulthood, the original owner of this body never allowed Si Qingzhou to get close to her, so until now, no one here knows what she looks like.
【Alright, Xiao Qi, I want you to erase the memories of those who saw the original owner's face. Since the original owner was harmed because of her appearance in her previous life, she can use her appearance to gain preferential treatment in this life.】
After Si Yan finished speaking, she emitted faint fluorescent light. Once the light disappeared, Si Yan slowly removed the thick veil covering her face.
As the veil fell away, a stunningly beautiful face was revealed. Although she was nearly forty, Si Yan's skin was fair and rosy, and she showed no signs of her age.
[Xiao Qi, is it today? The day the original owner's true appearance is revealed?]
After speaking, Si Yan put her veil back on, picked up her small bag, and went out.
After all, how can they act together if they don't show up themselves?
Those people must have done it on purpose in their past lives.
