Chapter 293: Retirement after success
Chen Jingting looked happy, turned his head and introduced to the woman beside him: "Mother, this is Mimi." ”
Just now I heard Du Mi admit it in front of everyone, only to be dead to him, he couldn't help but pull his mother and rush into the crowd, but unexpectedly collided with Du Mi.
Du Mi was stunned for a moment, shy and timid, and buried her head in a cramped and uneasy manner, not daring to face Chen Jingting's mother. Thinking that Mrs. Chen would look at herself carefully, who knew that there was nothing unusual in front of her for a long time, she raised her head suspiciously.
But seeing that Mrs. Chen looked fixedly in the direction of Du Lan and her aunt in the courtyard, and did not look at herself, she felt a touch of loss and sadness in her heart, it seemed that Mrs. Chen really didn't look down on herself.
Chen Jingting also wondered, why did his mother look at Duran's side?
"Mother?" He called softly.
Mrs. Chen looked at Zhao and muttered to herself, "She is Zhao ...... Ru Zhi? ”
"Mother?" Chen Jingting sensed that something was wrong and called out to her nervously.
However, Mrs. Chen was deaf and ignored the voice in her ears, and in order to verify that the woman in the courtyard was Zhao Ruzhi, she shouted loudly: "Zhao Ruzhi? Is it really you? ”
When Zhao heard this, as if he had been hit by a thunderbolt on a sunny day, he turned his head in a daze, and when he saw the shadow of the past, tears poured out like a lake bursting the embankment.
She couldn't believe her eyes and exclaimed, "Madame? ”
The woman in front of her was the master she had served when she was young, Mrs. Chen.
And Mrs. Chen walked quickly to Zhao Ruzhi's side, took her hand, and looked at the Zhao family who had been stumped by the years and almost couldn't recognize the original appearance, "It turns out that you have always been here, no wonder the swallow will be found here, have you been doing well all these years?" ”
Chen Jingting was dumbfounded, he brought his mother here, he was a daughter-in-law, but he didn't expect his mother to unexpectedly reunite with his old friend, isn't this providence?
Zhao Ruzhi slowly let go of Mrs. Chen's hand, took two steps back, and after keeping a certain distance from Mrs. Chen, she curtsied and bowed a standard salute: "Slave maid to meet Madame!" ”
Well?
What's going on?
Du Lan looked at the Zhao family who was still sprinkled just now, and in a blink of an eye, she seemed to have changed as a person, dignified, humble, gentle, and intellectual, and then saw that she and Mrs. Chen got along well and were familiar with each other, it can be seen that her identity is not as simple as a peasant woman.
This small mountain village is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, thinking about it, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Gu Youan. Gu Youan smiled at her dotingly, and a storm was set off in his heart, how did the general's wife's former personal maid run to this remote mountain village.
"Get up quickly, you and I are like sisters, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, I almost don't recognize you." Mrs. Chen kindly stepped forward to help her.
"Thank you, ma'am! Madame is here to ...... this time," Zhao asked tentatively, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Du Lan, who should always come.
Mrs. Chen only thought that Gu Chunyan was her daughter, and did not notice the meaning of Zhao's words, "Oh, it's not that Jingting has to pull me here, saying that I must be satisfied when I see that girl, right that girl......"
As she spoke, Mrs. Chen seemed to remember that she had forgotten to glance at the girl just now, and now she turned to look behind her, and looked seriously at the slim girl beside her son.
Zhao looked surprised: "It turns out that he is the son?" ”
Chen Jingting, who has been by Du Lan's side, turned out to be the little boy in the house when he was young, but he didn't expect it to be so big in a blink of an eye.
No, isn't he the son of the General's Mansion? Could it be that Chen Gongzi has become a general who has made contributions to the country.
Mrs. Chen understood her surprised expression, squinted and smiled: "Yes, after I asked you to take Miss out back then, the situation of our Chen Mansion was not very bad. ”
Although it is an understatement, the Zhao family has already heard the danger of the year, and it must be that Chen Gongzi was promoted to a general after his meritorious service. v5
"No wonder Chen Gongzi will appear next to Miss, it turns out that there is a providence in the dark. By the way, Miss, Miss, she ......" Zhao came back to his senses, looked at Mrs. Chen excitedly, and raised his hand to Du Lan, but before the words could be spoken, he was interrupted by Mrs. Chen with a smile.
"You don't have to blame yourself, you must have had your own hardships back then, that's why you sent Miss to the villagers for adoption, I am still grateful for everything you have done to me and Miss, whatever compensation you want, just ask."
Zhao's eyes widened in confusion, "What do you mean by villager adoption?" I lived up to my wife's trust and raised the young lady personally, she has always been by my side! ”
Mrs. Chen's smile froze on her face, and she said incoherently: "In ..... By your side? How is this possible? Didn't she grow up right next door to this house? How could it be ......"
"Look at me, I only cared about recognizing my wife, and I forgot to return the young lady to my wife, Lan Lan, come here." Zhao looked at Duran with reluctant eyes, and when she really gave away the child she had raised with hard work, she really felt the heartache like a knife.
Duran was confused and reluctantly walked over: "Mother, what are you asking me to do?" ”
"Silly boy ......" said, Zhao choked up and couldn't speak: "This ...... This ......"
She broke down emotionally for a while, and finally took a deep breath with difficulty, and whimpered to tell the truth: "This is your biological mother, and now I am also considered to have retired from fame and fame, and I will return you to Zhao." ”
"Mother, what nonsense are you talking about!" Duran was puzzled, she already regarded the Zhao family as her own mother here, why did she have a biological mother? What the hell is going on?
Gu Youan was just puzzled, but subconsciously hugged Duran's shoulders and gave her courage and comfort, so as not to let her be too excited by the blow.
When everyone in the courtyard heard the news, they all showed suspicious eyes, and Old Man Gu, Du Er, Chen Jingting, and Du Mi widened their eyes in disbelief.
What the hell is going on?
Mrs. Chen hesitated to move her gaze to Du Lan, at this moment she only felt dizzy, her ears rang, she forced her body to stand unsteadily, and smiled incredibly: "How is it possible...... Ru Zhi, don't lie to me, if you want your daughter to be the daughter of a wealthy and noble lady, I can recognize her as a righteous daughter, and the treatment will never be lower than that of Miss Yan of the General's Mansion, but you make such a joke with me, I really can't accept it. ”
Zhao didn't expect Mrs. Chen to wronged herself like this, and immediately couldn't help crying: "Madam, I was humiliated and burdened back then, ridiculed by the villagers, and bullied by my mother-in-law, they all thought that they did not abide by women's morals and took their daughter to remarry, but I didn't expect that in the end, you insulted me like this, in this case, Lan Lan is my own child, please leave." ”
Du Er saw that his wife was being bullied, and couldn't help but defend his wife, "I didn't expect you to be such an ungrateful person, I am afraid that our husband and wife will be touched by the favor of your general's mansion, and we will not even recognize our own daughter." Phew! We don't get a penny of your general's mansion, my good daughter, the daughter you don't recognize, Duran, she is smart and capable, with her own ability, she is enough to let the two elders enjoy the glory and wealth of the world, even if she doesn't recognize her biological mother, it has no effect on her! ”
Du Er was indignant and aggrieved for the Zhao family,
It's not worth it for Duran.
Immediately, his angry eyes swept to Chen Jingting and Du Mi again, and said, "Mimi, have you seen their faces clearly?" Do you still want to follow Chen Jingting with all your heart? Are you willing to be a daughter-in-law under such a wicked mother-in-law? Don't say you want to, uncle, I'm the first to disagree. ”
Du Mi's expression was in a dilemma, Chen Jingting was willing to bring his mother here, which was enough to prove his sincerity, it seemed that she and Chen Jingting were really inseparable.
At this time, the onlookers suddenly realized, it turned out that they had misunderstood Zhao, they accused Zhao of being a woman who did not keep chastity, but did not expect Zhao's benevolence and righteousness, helping others raise children, and suffering grievances, spurned by the villagers, by the mother-in-law's white eyes, and disliked by the concubine, Du Er is the real husband, in order to help Zhao hide the truth, he was willing to be ridiculed and criticized by the villagers, and only dedicated to protecting Zhao, it turned out that he had long known that Zhao was a great and admirable woman.
For a while, the villagers were upset for Zhao.
"This rich woman is so ruthless, she is even willing to abandon her own daughter, Zhao is so stupid, she has suffered for many years for other people's children, in exchange for me, I would have sold other people's children for money."
"Yes, we all blame her, it turns out that the little girl was not born to her."
"The Zhao family is so pitiful, her mother-in-law has been abused a lot for this, and I can't bear to treat her."
"Haven't you heard? In the past, her master encountered difficulties, and asked her to raise the child, but now that the master is soaring, where is he willing to recognize the poor girl raised in the countryside, this can only be blamed on the Zhao family's hard life! ”
From the words of the villagers, she could tell that the Zhao family did not lie to her, and the villagers of the entire village could testify for her that she did marry a little girl back then.
Did she really admit her mistake?
