Chapter 43: The Fall of the Water and the Emergence of the Stone (4)
How is Mrs. Shen now?
Pei Yaowei couldn't answer this question.
She told everything she knew about Shen Tingru to Su Xingyun, "...... I was negligent in this matter, I had realized that something was wrong earlier, but I didn't pay much attention to it, and it was too late to regret it. I just hope that she is auspicious, so good...... It's good to have your life alive. ”
When Su Xingyun heard the end, he was silent, not knowing what to say.
That night, when Mr. Yiyuan woke up from his slumber, he was in a trance for a long time.
The room was quiet, only Zhu Xingyun was waiting alone, and when he opened his eyes, her heart trembled.
At this time, she realized that she was a little scared after all.
The person on the bed didn't speak, she took a deep breath, forced herself to put on a calm smile, and asked, "Awake?" ”
He moved, his eyes chasing her.
Su Xingyun sat on the edge of his bed with his cheeks crossed, pretending to tease, "Do you remember me? ”
"Yes." He nodded fixedly, and after a while, he stretched out a hand to her and called, "Lady." ”
The stone in his heart fell to the ground.
Su Xingyun couldn't hold back, grabbed his hand and put it against his head, as if crying and laughing, unable to speak.
He hurriedly got up, hugged the person in his arms and patiently coaxed him.
“…… Sorry to worry you. He said, "Well, don't cry, so that people are ashamed to hear it?" ”
"I'm willing to cry, I want you to take care of it!" She made a little sex, and after a long time, asked, "...... Remembered? ”
He nodded.
"Then you ......" She bit her lip and hesitated for a long time before she said, "...... Zhao Xian? ”
I don't know how long it took, the people around me closed their eyes and nodded in resignation.
- Beilin Zhao's youngest son, the younger brother of the virtuous prince and Mrs. Huaiguo, born in the eleventh year of Yuanguang, at the age of twelve, and was named the Marquis of Lingqiu; In the first year of Renzhi, he met the mad doctor Chao Rong and worshiped him as a teacher; Wu Yao ten years, a total of Shen's daughter privately decided for life, and at the end of the year, she ran away and disappeared.
"Xiangtao ......"
He pronounced the name, and in addition to hatred, Pleiades Nebula heard more as if it were a world away.
He said, "It's him." ”
- Everything, it's him.
"When I returned to Beijing and explained to the clan about the daughter of the Shen family, the eldest brother was angry at that time, and the clan elders were also blamed by everyone, from top to bottom, only my brother-in-law supported me."
The next day, when Pei Yaowei was worried about herself in the room, she didn't want to, but waited for Mr. Yiyuan to come to the door in person-
Or, now it's time for her to call her uncle.
Zhao Xun talked to her about all the things that year, and the look in his eyes was indistinguishable, "All of this, needless to say, later, I finally settled everything, only to make amends with the Xiang family, and it happened that Xiang Tao returned from the expedition at that time - he was already the head of the Xiang family at that time, so I handed over the post and invited him to meet, intending to apologize to him seriously." ”
"He ......" Pei Yao's tone hesitated, she looked at Zhao Xuan's body, and asked for a long time: "Did he do it?" ”
Zhao Xun nodded.
"He asked me to meet at the annex outside the Xiang family's city, I didn't doubt him, so I went alone, but I didn't expect that he had already prepared everything, just waiting for me to throw myself into the net."
On that day, he was besieged and killed by Xiang Tao's subordinates, and finally broke out of the encirclement, escaped all the way, and was forced to the river.
Unexpectedly, this jump would miss Zhao's twenty years.
also missed Shen Tingru for twenty years.
"Shh
When he suddenly called, Pei Yao was stunned, came back to his senses, and a little bit of enthusiasm spread from the bottom of his heart, writing about kinship.
"Uncle." She got up, knelt at his feet, and bowed her head to his lap.
"Thank you." Zhao Yan stroked her head, as if through her, he saw his sister who didn't have time to say goodbye, "Thank you......"
In the days that followed, the Josawa Hill Garden was very lively.
When Pei Yaowei and Zhao Ju led Zhao Fei to the eldest princess of Xianhuai, after explaining the ins and outs, the eldest princess was unbelievable at first, and after her mind settled down a little, her first reaction was to call Zhao Fei in front of her and grab his right hand.
- There was a scar on his right hand that had been worn for years, and from the base of his index finger to the outside of his wrist, he had made a diagonal line smoothly and smoothly, which was very eye-catching.
"Send your ......" The eldest princess called out this sentence in a trembling voice, and her eyes were instantly full of tears: "It's really you!" …… It's really you! ”
As she spoke, she was about to reach out to lift his hat, but he took a step back and hurriedly separated her.
"Sister-in-law...... No," for the first time in these years, he felt scared for this face, "My face is ruined, I'm afraid that my diaphragm will respond to you, so don't look at it." ”
The eldest princess was stunned, and then her face sank.
"You were brought up by me, more like my own son than this kid, can I still dislike you?" As she spoke, she pointed unceremoniously at Zhao Ju on the side.
Speaking of which, Lingqiu Hou is the youngest son in the family, and his brothers and sisters are all different in age, the same age as Shungong Pei Changge, and only five or six years older than Zhao Ju, but he is just a generation. Princess Xianhuai's words are not exaggerated at all, this little uncle was actually brought up by her.
It was precisely for this reason that Zhao Fafang did not dare to lift this hat in front of her.
"Sister-in-law, I know you love me the most, but ......"
He was originally patient, and planned to persuade him with good words, but he didn't want to, the eldest princess couldn't wait patiently, and seeing that he always shirked, he simply got started in person, and while he was unprepared, he lifted the hat.
What followed was a long silence.
"Send your son...... My kids ......"
When the eldest princess finally came back to her senses, Zhao Ju saw the panic that she had never experienced in the eyes of her mother, who had always been resolute.
Also, distressed.
"How...... Who is it? Who did it? Who is it! She ignored her manners, roared angrily, and the pain in her eyes seemed to make her dozens of years older in a blink of an eye.
Zhao Ju and Pei Yao hurriedly went over to help and comfort, but she couldn't hear anything else at this time, and she fainted in a hurry.
A storm was settled, Zhao Yi was accompanying his mother in the house, Pei Yao pushed the door out, and saw Zhao Yan standing under the porch, and put the hat on his head again.
"Don't blame yourself." She came to him and persuaded him softly: "Paper can't contain fire, and your aunt will know about your suffering sooner or later." ”
Zhao Xun nodded, saying that he understood, but only he knew if he could get by in his heart.
"Uncle, it's actually ......"
Since the truth was revealed, she has been thinking about one thing in her heart, weighed it for a long time, and couldn't find a suitable opportunity to tell him, until she persuaded her uncle now, she realized - some things, probably never have a suitable opportunity, but always can't help but say.
Having made up her mind, she said, "There is one thing I should have told you. I wonder if you'd like to hear about it now? ”
Zhao Yan turned his head to look at her, guessed in his heart, and after a pause, he nodded.
Pei Yaowei invited him to his courtyard, closed the door, and told him everything Wen Lian had done to Zhao Qingchou, Xiang Xiang, and what he had done.
- In addition, there is naturally a similar life experience.
"The matter...... Because I didn't want Xiao Di to hate Wen Lian, I never confided in anyone. As she spoke, she stood up and bowed, apologizing sincerely.
And at this moment, Zhao Xun was already stunned.
He already knew that light sorrow was a matter of mutual affection, so naturally he could not be shocked, what really surprised him was Xiang Xiang's life experience.
When he came back to his senses, he trembled and got up and helped Pei Yao up.
"...... you say," he asked, uncertainly, "whose daughter do you say Xiang Yu is?" ”
Pei Yao looked at him and sighed distressedly.
"When I brought Chaorong into the Prime Minister's Mansion, he recognized Mrs. Shen and went to her privately to question.
I heard Mrs. Shen admit with my own ears that Xiang Yu is your daughter.
This is why, for so many years, Xiang Tao has always been mean and unkind. ”
Zhao Xian heard her every word clearly, but his mind was confused for a while.
“…… No," he said in a daze: "Didn't you say that Xiangyu's birthday was October of the eleventh year of Wu Yao?" Then how could she be ......?"
In October of the eleventh year, he and Shen Tingru were separated, and it was in July of the tenth year, how to count each other, it shouldn't be his daughter......
Pei Yao said: "Xiao Di told me about this.
Xiang's birthday was supposed to be the first day of May in the eleventh year. In February of that year, Xiang Tao sued his parents, falsely claiming that Mrs. Shen was the daughter of the Huan family, and accepted it to Han Dan, probably for his own reputation of being filial and diligent, and in order not to make Mrs. Shen rude to her aunt, he deliberately postponed Xiang Yu's birthday for a few months to be comprehensive. ”
She thought for a moment and said, "If you don't believe me...... Just one look at the appearance of the matchmaker is enough to prove it, right? ”
Zhao Yan looked up at her.
He remembered his true face, and this face was indeed similar to himself.
"It's not that I don't believe it......" he sat down again, shaking his head, his eyes were both happy and sad, "I didn't expect ......"
I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
For a long time, he suddenly had a stirring spirit and looked up at Pei Yaoyan: "In other words, the current sorrow...... No longer my daughter, but still my daughter? ”
Pei Yaowei nodded.
Yes, who would have believed that such a thing could happen in this world?
She believed that Wen Lian would not have the opportunity to know that Mr. Yiyuan was the Marquis of Lingqiu, but the result of her handwriting was so mysterious that people had to sigh and make people sigh.
To tell the truth, she was happy when she figured it out.
- This joy is owned by the uncle, for Mrs. Shen, and for the love of the father, but it has turned a thousand times, and it has become the daughter of the biological father. She thought that this matter was unspeakable to these three people, and it was also a remedy, a belated fulfillment.
But at the same time, she was also worried.
- This worry is for the uncle, for the wife, and for the little cousin who still doesn't know where to go.
If Mrs. Su knew the identity of the light sorrow at this moment......
Even if she is an open-minded person, but in this world, what mother can be 'open-minded' to such an extent, with her own daughter's life, to fulfill her husband and another daughter's child?
