Chapter 94-1: Sunrise (I) Finale
......On the dock, Noel spread her hands and stumbled towards me. I squatted down, hugged him, and kissed his ruddy little face: "Baby, I want to die and kiss my mother......"
"Mother...... Whining...... Mother ...... "Nuo'er cried loudly, hugged me tightly and refused to let go. My heart is sour, my Nuo'er must be frightened, I have never been away from him for so long, I really don't know how my baby has come over these months? How scared was he? How frightened? I hugged him tightly and coaxed him distressedly: "Good, don't cry baby, my mother will never leave Nuo'er again, never leave ...... again"
"Sister!" Xiaohong helped the old lady over, I wiped my tears, and stood up with Nuo'er in my arms: "Mother, I ......"
"It's good to be back." The old lady looked at us with a smile, and Aunt An next to her stepped forward and looked at An Yuanxi beside me, her eyes were red: "Yuanxi......"
"Mother, I'm worried about you." An Yuanxi held her shoulder, with an apologetic look on his face. It seems that he is very good to Aunt An, although he is not really An Yuanxi, but he borrowed An Yuanxi's body, and obviously took on the responsibilities and obligations of An Yuanxi, he has been lonely since he was a child, and there is a mother who really feels sorry for him at this time, and he cherishes it when he thinks about it.
"Qi'er, you've worked hard." The old lady said gently. An Yuanxi shook his head: "It's good that sister-in-law can come back safely." ”
Sister-in-law? I turned to look at him and frowned. He hasn't called me like that these days, why did he change when he faced the Yun family? An Yuanxi avoided my gaze and narrowed his eyelids, unable to see the expression in his eyes. I bit my lip lightly, remembering what Yu Die'er reminded me before, could it be that An Yuanxi also had the same concerns?
"Sister An, it's windy on the dock, let's go back to the boat first." The old lady said to Aunt An, "Qi'er and Ye'er have just come back, so they should also have a good rest." ”
The Yun family prepared two big ships, one to pick us up, and the other to send An Yuanxi to hire those mercenaries to return home, An Yuanxi fulfilled the original contract, and after Tingchao Island prepared a ship for them, the contract could be ended. Yu Die'er didn't want to be with the Yun family, so she took the mercenary's ship back to Tiancao Kingdom. Before leaving, Yu Die'er said earnestly: "Huahua, if the Yun family can't accept you, let's elope with the nerd, the world is so big, where is there no place to stay?" ”
"I'll think about it." I smiled at him. Yu Die'er looked at me seriously and sighed: "I know that you are arrogant, you must disdain to do this, ask for more blessings!" ”
"Thank you, Flower Butterfly!" I know he's doing it for my good, and I'm grateful, "Take care!" ”
When I returned to the ship, I saw An Yuanxi and Yun Xiu waiting for me in the cabin. Seeing me come in, An Yuanxi got up and said, "Sister-in-law, there is something I want to discuss with you and Uncle Xiu." ”
It's sister-in-law again! I didn't think that when I heard the word "sister-in-law" this time, it was extremely harsh, I don't know if when I used to call him "uncle", he felt the same way as I do now? In front of Uncle Xiu, I couldn't stare at him, so I had to make a calm appearance: "What's the matter?" ”
"I told Uncle Xiu before that if we can't come back, let him take Nuo'er to the New World." An Yuanxi said, "Do you want to continue to go now?" ”
In order to save me this time, the property of the Hou Mansion has been resold more than half, leaving only some hidden pile businesses to cover the hidden forces, and the real estate only retains the Cangdu Hou Mansion, the Lifang Courtyard, the Jingcheng Hou Mansion and the Jade Snow Mountain Aoxue Villa. The Hou Mansion has no eye-catching wealth, isn't it very safe in the Tiancao Kingdom, why would he ask that?
"What's going on?" I asked sensitively.
"I've asked the Nine Kings about the teapot...... An Yuanxi paused, "He didn't do it." ”
My heart "cuckled": "You mean ......"
If he hadn't done it, there would have been only one person left, today. I only felt a chill down my spine, six years ago, he had been arranging this matter six years ago, when he hadn't even ascended the throne, so he planted Jin'er's eyeliner next to the old man who was about to help him ascend. Four years ago, not long after he ascended the throne, he had already thought about rectifying the Yun family and taking the old man's surname. That person, he will not let go of all the people and things that hinder the imperial power, and will destroy them. I bit my lip, I only felt a cold feeling in my heart, although the Yun family was no longer a threat to him, how did I know who I used to be, what happened in the past, and whether it would become a thorn in his heart one day? Will he remove me as mercilessly as he did with the old man?
"Nine Kings, can you believe it?" I struggled violently and laboriously to speak. An Yuanxi looked at me quietly and said lightly: "He has no reason to lie to me. ”
Disappointment mixed with fear chilled my heart, and I slowly turned my head to look at Yun Xiu: "Uncle Xiu, what do you think?" ”
"Madam, now that the Hou Mansion has nothing to worry about in the Tiancao Kingdom, it is better to take the little Hou Ye to the New World to have a look, and only inspect the properties under his name, and then make a decision." Yun Xiu said, "I have already arranged it over there in the Hou Mansion, I just need to let the people who stay behind go to the court when the Hou Dynasty arrives, and the lady will take the little Hou Ye to travel far away, and the return date is undecided." ”
Uncle Xiu is right, the Yun family has so many industries in the new continent, we haven't seen it, as for whether it stays there for a long time, let's talk about it later. I nodded, and immediately made a decision: "Okay, let's go to the New World as originally planned." ”
"There will be a storm after seven days, and we can rest for a few days on Tingchao Island before setting off." Uncle Xiu smiled, "I'll go out and prepare first." ”
An Yuanxi followed Uncle Xiu out, and I called him: "Yuanxi, I still have something to tell you." ”
He stood where he was, not coming. I frowned and said, "What are you doing standing?" Sit down. ”
"What's the matter with sister-in-law?" An Yuanxi didn't sit down, and said with his eyelids down. The fire in my heart suddenly came out: "Why are you doing this?" Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, are you choking on me? ”
"You were originally a sister-in-law." An Yuanxi faced my anger with a calm face.
"What do you mean?" My heart sank, and I had a strange feeling, "Do you know what the hell you're talking about?" ”
"I know very well." An Yuanxi was silent for a moment and said slowly, "I know very well that no matter who I used to be, I am now Yunqi, the second son of the Yun family, and your uncle, and I will never change." ”
"What do you mean?" My mind couldn't turn at all, and I asked questions over and over again like a fool.
"What I mean is that everything that used to be in the past ends now." An Yuanxi's tone was deliberately indifferent, "From now on, we are just uncles and sisters-in-law." ”
I looked at him in disbelief, still a little confused: "Did you take the wrong medicine?" ”
He lowered his eyelids and said calmly, "If it's okay, I'll go out first." ”
With that, he turned away from the cabin without hesitation, and I was so shocked that I forgot to stop him. Could it be that the emotions between me and him have been surging since these days, and I am wrong? I don't believe he really let go, we've been through so many things together, can he really say let go? Is he taking revenge on me? Or did he have the same worries as Yu Die'er, afraid that the Yun family would object, so he deliberately said this? After the shock, I gradually came back to my senses, I took a deep breath, no, I will not give him a chance to back down, I must ask the reason, I will never be like before, ask nothing, and let go happily.
However, it was so difficult to find an opportunity to ask him alone, and in the next few days, I couldn't find him, and when I could see him, there were other people present, either Aunt An, or the old lady or Uncle Xiu. He was trying to avoid me, and when someone else was there, his attitude towards me was extremely polite, and when no one was there, he didn't know where to hide, and I couldn't find him at all. I'm so angry that I want to tie him up and beat him! Anger is mixed with resentment, accumulating deeper and deeper in my heart, An Yuanxi! Well done! You give me to remember!
