Chapter 142: Family Affection, Gone
There was a sour feeling in my heart.
In life, for those who have always been by your side, even if they are not related by blood? Xia Yu is not Aunt Mei's biological daughter, but now their hearts have long been tightly connected.
In ancient times, women married early, and Aunt Mei was only in her thirties, but she was originally graceful and luxurious, but because she was worried about her own safety, she was restless and so haggard. It doesn't matter anymore whether it was sixteen years ago, or if she deceived everyone by pretending to have amnesia.
Slowing away, sitting on the edge of the bed, Xia Yu leaned over and hugged the sleeping man, his thin lips opened lightly, and called slightly:
"Mother, I'm back......"
Aunt Mei, who fainted, moved slightly. It was as if I heard the voice of longing in my heart, and finally slowly opened my eyes. However, when she saw Xia Yu, she was stunned for a while, until she slowly raised her hand and stroked that familiar face, and her tears could not hold back again and rolled out.
"Xiaoyu, it's really your ......" As soon as he opened his mouth, tears couldn't stop flowing.
Mother and daughter are affectionate, and the two of them hug each other, which can't help but make the brothers and sisters of Lu Qiao and Zhou standing outside the door cry.
How can people who have not gone through life and death parting, how can they understand! The kind of reunion that has been lost but suddenly exchanged......
Xia Yu buried her face in Aunt Mei's arms, with tears on her face, but the corners of her mouth were lightly raised, with a happy smile.
"Mother, I'm back, Xiaoyu will never let you worry about it again."
"It's good to be back!" Aunt Mei hugged Xia Yu in her arms tightly and said in a choked voice. In fact, in her current opinion, as long as Xia Yu can live, everything else is no longer important.
"Madame, young lady is back, we should be happy, don't be sad. You've cried enough these days. Don't shed a tear. Lu Qiao stepped forward, wiping his tears and said with a smile. In fact, how much she wanted to step forward at this moment. also threw himself into Aunt Mei's arms. Although she is just a subordinate, she has grown up with Xia Yu since she was a child, and she has long regarded Aunt Mei and Miss as her dearest and dearest family!
Xia Yu knows. Aunt Mei did not have amnesia, but she did not ask Aunt Mei about her life experience. Because, Aunt Mei now regards her as more important than her own life, and she really doesn't want to uncover the scar that has taken her sixteen years to avoid pain.
When Xia Yu came back, Zhou Wenqian knew that everyone hadn't eaten and slept well these days, so she took advantage of the joy of everyone's reunion and made a few delicious side dishes.
After eating and drinking, it was almost midnight. After that, Xia Yu also had a stumbling hì sugar smash and annoyance dumplings and dumplings
Lu Qiao was very happy because of Xia Yu's return, but when she asked about it, her face suddenly darkened.
"Miss didn't know, on the day Miss was taken away, the Hou Ye came to the house with many people and said that he wanted to take Mrs. back. However, Madame would rather die than leave Meizhuang, saying that she would wait until Miss you come back. β
"Xia Xiong brought someone to pick up his mother?" The corners of his mouth hooked, Xia Yu chuckled, but he didn't expect Xia Xiong to be so uncontrollable. actually brought people to make trouble on the day she was taken to the criminal department.
But, that damn brute, how could he be kind enough to pick up Aunt Mei! All he wanted was to find a way to know the news about Shenyu from Aunt Mei's mouth! This bastard. Even if he knew that Aunt Mei had lost his memory, he was still dreaming of becoming stronger!
"Xia Xiong's old horseman's wishful thinking is quite loud! It's just that Xihoufu has been down since then, and I'm afraid that it will be difficult for him to turn over again. β
"Mademoiselle is right! Merely...... King Tiancheng gave marriage, and asked Miss to marry the prince. Isn't the Xihou Mansion still able to use the relationship of the young lady to cling to the imperial power? Lu Qiao made the bed for Xia Yu, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said with emotion.
"Marrying the crown prince? Hehe, I resisted the decree and refused to marry like this, how could I marry Murong Tian. Xia Yu said with a smile.
Yes, no matter how much Xia Yu longed to marry Murong Tian, no matter whether he ventured to the Criminal Department or not, wanting to take him away and fly away. However, between Xia Yu and Murong Tian, it will never be possible!
Looking at each other and smiling, Xia Yu was very tired and just wanted to go to bed, but she suddenly frowned.
"What does it smell like?"
"Miss, what did you say?" Lu Qiao stood on the edge of the bed, and yawned a little foggy after hearing his young lady's words. However, as soon as the words fell, he saw Xia Yu suddenly get up, so he rushed out of the door-
"It's the smell of fire oil! No, it's my mother-in-law's-"
Xia Yu rushed outside, sniffed his nose, and the smell of fire oil became even stronger. However, when she raised her eyes and saw that in the courtyard where Aunt Mei lived, there was suddenly a fire rolling up in the sky, and she immediately ran out.
The fire was very strong, and the yard where Aunt Mei lived was swept up in the flames! The flames were so high that no one could get close.
"Mother...... Mother-" Her eyes were full of horror, and Xia Yu was stunned.
"Madame! Madame is in the house!! Looking at the firelight in the sky, Lu Qiao was suddenly frightened and cried.
As soon as her heart sank, Xia Yu was about to rush in, because the mother who loved her was still in the house. However, the fire was too strong for her to get closer. Tears rolled down, and Xia Yu only felt that she was going crazy! What to do...... What should she do?
"Miss, you can't go!" When the two brothers and sisters of the Zhou family found out about the movement here, they also rushed over quickly. Zhou Wentao hugged Xia Yu, who was so impulsive that he wanted to jump into the sea of fire, and didn't want to watch her die!
"Mother! My aunt is still in there!! Xia Yu clenched his fists and roared heartbreakingly. Impulsive like her, she just thought about rescuing Aunt Mei, and she didn't think about how terrible the raging flames were!
"Summer Rain!!" Zhou Wentao hugged her tightly, Xia Yu was petite, but he had a lot of strength, he was very hard to hold her, and he didn't want her to die: "Xia Yu, calm down!" The fire is so big, before you can rescue your wife, you yourself will die! You don't go in and you can't go in!! β
"But...... But my mother is inside......" Xia Yu choked up, tears welled up like a tide, she had never been so helpless.
"Summer Rain ......"
"Miss......"
Several people cried, looking at the fire rising into the sky in front of them, Xia Yu's eyes were reflected by the flames with a bewitching firelight. The ancient houses were all built of wooden beams, and within a few moments, the house where Aunt Mei lived collapsed.
The fire was so great that the air was filled with the smell of fire oil, just a few of them. Even with three heads and six arms, it is impossible to extinguish the fire.
Xia Yu looked at the raging fire, but when the house fell, it suddenly became quiet. Zhou Wentao saw that she was struggling, and suddenly stopped crying or making trouble. I'm worried.
"Miss......" Lu Qiao turned his head to look at Xia Yu, and his whole person was about to collapse. The fire in Meizhuang was too sudden, and they were still immersed in the happiness of a family reunion before dinner. But I don't want to blink, but it's life and death.
With a calm face, Xia Yu looked at the firelight and was stunned. Although she no longer cries or makes trouble, in her eyes, the sadness and heartache are very distressing.
Donβt wait for prosperity to care for the things important to you
The son wants to raise but does not wait!
Once, Aunt Mei couldn't let go of Xia Xiong's betrayal and the fact that her imminent child died. has been rejecting Xia Yu for sixteen years! During these sixteen years, they tortured each other and misfortuned each other! Until one day, the lonely girl sank to the bottom of the icy lake, her face pale...... Aunt Mei just thought about making up for it!
However, happiness came too suddenly and too briefly.
Whether it was in Xihou Mansion or moving to Meizhuang, their mother and daughter didn't feel that they were so important to each other!
Family affection is in this world. The most touching and warmest thing......
However, why does God want to let them be separated forever at this time! The world is only a hundred years, and going around and around will eventually lead to death. Even though Xia Yu can be fortunate to let the great master Mo Bing. Saved Aunt Mei more than a month ago...... However, it still can't change the fate that she will leave her!
Why?
Is it because I'm not your biological daughter, so I can't keep your love at all?
"Miss, don't be sad......" Lu Qiao and Wen Qian wanted to appease Xia Yu, but as soon as the words came out, both of them couldn't stop crying.
"Who is there?!"
Suddenly, Zhou Wentao, who was still holding Xia Yu and not letting go. Suddenly, I found that in the corner of the courtyard, there was a black shadow, which flashed very quickly.
Surprised!
There was a flash of cold light.
With a flip of her wrist, the butterfly ring on her index finger flashed with light, and the aura of the dragon slaying sword instantly burst out, directly shocking Zhou Wentao behind her and flying out! Immediately, I saw that Xia Yu's body was extremely fast, and he immediately chased after the black shadow that flashed.
Xia Yu was holding the dragon slaying sword, and when she chased the strange black shadow, she didn't think about swinging it out! The sword was furious, and the man tried his best to escape when he knew that he was discovered, but the power of the dragon slaying sword should not be underestimated, and he still slashed the man's left shoulder.
Someone deliberately set the fire, but they picked Xia Yugang and Aunt Mei to do it after they reunited. However, if the arsonist really wanted to commit murder, he could have done it before the summer rain returned. However, in the whole Meizhuang, all the people were safe, but only the courtyard where Aunt Mei lived was doused with fire oil, and even the people and the house were destroyed.
It can be seen that the arsonist must have wanted something to disappear with Aunt Mei's death.
Aunt Mei knew the whereabouts of Shenyu, and even though Xia Xiong's beast believed that she had lost her memory, she would not pick it at this time. Moreover, he doesn't have the ability to guarantee that he can escape safely under Xia Yu's eyelids after committing the murder!
The arson attack, and the fire oil with him, obviously came prepared. But after the summer rain appeared, he fled without a fight! Xia Yu is not the secret of Aunt Mei's biological daughter, in fact, many people in Xihou Mansion know it, but because of face and Xia Xiong's pressure, they don't dare to mention it.
Now, when Xia Yu comes back, Aunt Mei is suffering! The only thing that can make people wonder is Xia Yu's life experience......
Because, whose daughter she is, only Aunt Mei knows about it!
So, it's a safe bet that the arsonist already knew she would be back today! However, since she was able to escape from the Candle Dragon Pool today, she has been deliberately avoiding crowded places all the way, and it stands to reason that there should not be many people who know her whereabouts.
However, not long after she returned, someone sneaked into Meizhuang. arson right under her nose......
If Aunt Mei dies, her background will be a secret forever! But who is she...... Why would anyone take the risk to come and would rather burn Aunt Mei to death, but also ask for her background and hide it.
With his fists clenched, Xia Yu stood in the night, turned around tiredly, and then looked at the firelight behind him. In the enchanting firelight, she faintly saw a loving face.
Xiaoyu, you want to be happy!
No matter what happens...... Mother hopes you can live well!
Tears slid down, frustration never felt before. However, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she smiled lightly at the firelight......
Yes, she will be happy!
Mother...... Your little rain will definitely live happily!
******
Aunt Mei's death made Xia Yuqing very low. She didn't rest for a few days and nights, she was very tired, and as soon as she hit the pillow, she wanted to sleep.
The dead are gone, and the living have to live well! In the middle of the moon, Xia Yu just lay down on the bed, and there was a sound of the cableway under the bed, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and Xia Yu gently patted the bed board under him:
"Xiao Fengfeng, can't you let me sleep well?"
As soon as the words fell, a small pet that looked like a dog but was covered with scales and had a horn on its head slowly crawled to Xia Yu from under the bed, only to see its eyes watery, and its two front hooves suddenly pulled one of Xia Yu's quilt corners, and cried loudly......
His eyes opened slightly, Xia Yu raised his hand and threw it directly out of bed.
"Sorry, I haven't gotten into the habit of cuddling my pet to sleep yet!" Xia Yu said tiredly.
The poor wind mocking beast was thrown by Xia Yu like this, and planted directly to the ground, so pitiful.
Whining...... It just saw that its owner was in a bad mood recently and wanted to accompany her more, but its owner not only didn't appreciate it, but also threw it away! As a high-level divine beast, when has it ever been wronged like this...... But for the sake of the master, it doesn't want any self-esteem and cheekiness.
The mocking wind beast got up from the ground, and wanted to pounce into Xia Yu's arms again, but he didn't want to be pulled by Xia Yu's ears in disgust, and directly lifted it!
"What the hell do you want?"
"Whew......"
It just wants to spend more time with its owner, and when it sees that the owner is unhappy, it wants to coax the owner...... I didn't think so.
Xia Yu no longer paid attention to it, she was already upset, and she couldn't sleep peacefully when she was so disturbed by it. Slowly sat up, his eyes lowered, but his hand unconsciously touched the anti-heaven ancient jade on his chest. In the world of ancient jade, there was still no fluctuation of spiritual power, and since the jade god fell into a deep sleep again, Xia Yu could no longer feel his breath.
"Xiao Fengfeng, come here!" With a raised eyebrow, Xia Yu's face changed, and he shrugged his head on the ground, so that he was not wronged, and the poor mocking wind beast suddenly beckoned.
