Chapter 59: Mother and Daughter Recognize Each Other
The moment she was held in her arms by Princess Wu Ning, Shui Qingqing was stunned.
She was stunned: "Princess......"
Princess Wuning, who had been searching all night and worrying all night, felt alive the moment she saw Shui Qingqing.
But when he saw the gray robe on her body and the broken hair, his heart hurt like a knife, hugged her tightly in his arms, and cried sadly: "My hard-working daughter, my mother has finally found you!" ”
A 'daughter' sounded like a thunderbolt on Shui Qingqing's head, making her mind blank, and the whole person was completely stunned on the spot.
Daughter? How could Princess Wu Ning call her a daughter?!
How could she...... How could it be the daughter of a princess?
Could it be that she hasn't woken up yet, and is she still in her dream last night?
Shui Qingqing was stunned by Princess Wu Ning's words, she couldn't believe what she heard, and she thought she was still in a dream.
However, Princess Wu Ning hugged her so tightly that she could clearly feel the trembling of the princess's body, and her hot tears wet her shoulders.
Shui Qingqing's body also trembled, and her heart swelled with dense soreness, making her eyes red, her throat suffocated, and she couldn't even speak.
The host of the nunnery watched the mother and daughter hug each other and cried, and said with a smile of relief: "Amitabha, since the donor's family is looking for it, let's go back with my mother." ”
The host's words made Shui Qingqing recover from the shock.
She struggled to push Princess Wuning away, looked at Princess Wuning in front of her in shock, and Aunt Pity with tears on her face, her mind was messy, and she said in a daze: "Princess...... Did you recognize the wrong person? ”
Princess Wuning stretched out her hand and trembled to stroke the broken hair on her head, and said sadly: "I didn't admit my mistake, you are my daughter, my daughter who was lost in the Western Desert nineteen years ago......"
Hearing Princess Wuning mention the Western Desert, Shui Qingqing's whole body trembled violently, her face turned pale, and she was so shocked that she choked again.
Aunt Pian also cried very much, and stepped forward to take her hand and cried: "My poor county lord, the princess has been looking for you all night, you can go back with us...... What's the matter, let's go back and explain it to the county lord......"
Without waiting for Shui Qingqing to speak, the sister-in-law who led the way had already gone to the wing room to help her bring her package, and Aunt Pian took it over, and together with Princess Wuning, helped Shui Qingqing to walk to the carriage outside.
The carriage went to the capital, and along the way, Princess Wuning tightened her hand and cried: "Daughter, take you home for your mother!" ”
Shui Qingqing has been in a very shocked state, no matter how Ren is, she can't believe that she will be the daughter of Princess Wuning.
But since Princess Wuning called out that 'daughter' to her, the grievances and pains she has accumulated over the years have poured out from the depths of her heart.
And now a simple sentence of 'go home' shocked her heart, so many years of bitterness and grief made her tears uncontrollable -
After living for nineteen years, when did Shui Qingqing have a stable home?
The adoptive father is an artist, and there is no fixed home for the artist, so when he went to the east house to dig a well today, he slept by the well with a bed on his back. Tomorrow he will go to the west house to build a house, and he will live under the thatched hut of the master's house. If she didn't get a job, her adoptive father would take her to find a deserted and dilapidated cave to live in, and she had no fixed place to live all the year round, and she didn't have a fixed home at all......
When she was a child, she was ignorant, thinking that people in the world were the same as her and her adoptive father, wandering around, and everyone lived the same life, but it wasn't until she saw the young ladies of the rich merchants in the countryside that she knew that people were different.
Those rich ladies, they have beautiful clothes, embroidered uppers are dusty, and their hair is meticulously combed, unlike her, from head to toe, always covered in yellow sand. They can also drink clean water without sand and eat snow-white bread......
Shui Qingqing is not envious of these, but she envies them for having a stable home.
Later, the matchmaker came to her and told her that the matchmaker knew that Wang Dingbao was a mute, and her adoptive father agreed, because the adoptive father knew her heart's wish and knew that she wanted a stable home.
She still remembers that on the day of her wedding, she stood shyly and frightened at the door of the dilapidated cave in a bright red dress, reluctant to leave. Daddy warned her with red eyes that although the husband she was going to marry was a mute, the Wang family was a big family in the town, and after marrying, she could live in a clean house and drink clean water......
However, what her adoptive father and Shui Qingqing didn't expect was that the husband she married was not only a dumb child, but also an idiot. In the end, he was drugged by his in-laws and sent to other men to seed for the Wang family......
After she escaped from the Wang family in humiliation, her adoptive father also died, and even the dilapidated cave could no longer be called home......
She traveled thousands of miles to the capital to find relatives, trying to find her biological parents and find her home, but she lost her child and almost lost her life.
When she became Sheng Yu and married into the Hou Mansion with filial piety, she thought that Tingsheng Yuan would be her home, but she was finally driven out of the Hou Mansion, reduced to a nunnery, and left home......
The sadness and pain along the way, as well as loneliness, made Shui Qingqing so sad that she collapsed when she heard Princess Wuning say 'go home'.
She gritted her teeth to suppress the bitterness in her heart, wiped away her tears, and trembled: "How did the princess recognize it...... Am I your daughter? ”
Princess Wuning choked up and took out a portrait from her body, unfolded it to her, and said sadly: "It's You'er who found out that you are very similar to my previous portrait......
Shui Qingqing hesitantly took the portrait from Princess Wuning, and was stunned at first sight.
The girl in the portrait, fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a flower-sprinkled skirt embroidered with apricot blossoms, half-leaning on a swing frame made of wisteria, the corners of her mouth are lightly raised, and a pair of black and white fox eyes are clear and translucent, like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, and she actually compares the apricot blossoms in the garden.
And the woman in the painting, except for the innate nobility, looks almost exactly like her.
The moment she saw the portrait, Shui Qingqing's heart was already clear, and the hand holding the scroll trembled slightly. But on her face, she smiled bitterly: "Maybe it's just that I'm lucky enough to look a little like the princess...... There are many people in the world who are similar to each other, but they are not necessarily related by blood. Like the Mask Assassin and Mei Zijin, she recognized their backgrounds, but as far as she knew, Mei Zijin did not have a brother born to her compatriots.
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Princess Wu Ning couldn't help but step forward and hold her right hand, so excited that her voice trembled: "There are also three cinnabar moles on your right wrist, which have been there since you were born, and your mother always remembers it, and you can't be wrong......"
Hearing Princess Wuning mention cinnabar moles, Shui Qingqing's heart was shocked, and she couldn't help but recall that that day in the Three Princes' Mansion, she asked Aunt Pian to show her palmistry, and when she stretched out her right hand, Princess Wuning suddenly cried and had a heart attack......
It turned out that she recognized herself at that time, and the third prince Li You approached her and invited her to the New Year's banquet in the mansion, all because of doubts about her identity......
The mysteries that I couldn't understand before were solved at this moment.
At this time, Shui Qingqing also had to believe that the noble and pitiful woman in front of her was really her biological mother.
Because she believes that a mother will not mistake the marks on her child's body. Just like her, she always remembered the cinnabar mole on Yun'er's wrist......
Previously, Shui Qingqing had been trying her best to find her biological parents, but when this moment really came, in her heart, in addition to shock, there was more bitterness and sadness, and the joy was covered up.
Princess Wuning saw that she no longer spoke, her expression was also very calm, thinking that she was blaming her for her abandonment back then, she couldn't help but nervously took her hand and said sadly: "Back then, it wasn't that my mother wanted to abandon you, but that I thought you were seriously ill and died...... Over the years, my mother has not felt at ease, and I have always felt guilty that I didn't take good care of you back then, so that you contracted a bad disease...... Qing'er, you can hate your mother, but you can't be so self-defeating and abandoned. Mother will take good care of you in the future, compensate you, and never let others bully you again......"
A 'Qing'er' made Shui Qingqing's heart more and more bitter.
She remembered that her adoptive father had told her that when she was picked up, the word 'Qing' was embroidered with silk thread on the small quilt wrapped around her, so her adoptive father named her Shui Qingqing.
Unexpectedly, there is really this word in her real name.
After hesitating for a moment, Shui Qingqing took out the old golden rouge box from her arms, handed it to Princess Wuning, and said in a trembling voice: "This is ...... Your old stuff? ”
Although it has been confirmed that Princess Wuning is her mother, she has never called her mother, and for a while, she didn't know how to call out the most common and warm words in the world.
Seeing the rouge box that Shui Qingqing took out, Princess Wu Ning was stunned at first, and when she saw that the box in her heart was actually a nineteen-year-old thing, she couldn't cry again, took the box in her hand, and her heart ached: "This box is your mother's, and it is also what you liked to play with in your hands when you were a child...... My hard-working daughter, I didn't expect you to keep it, it's my mother who is sorry for you......"
Aunt Pian was also crying and laughing on the side, seeing that Shui Qingqing took out Princess Wuning's rouge box back then, knowing that everything would not be wrong again, she wiped her tears and said happily: "So, everything is right." Congratulations to the princess for finding the county lord and reuniting the mother and daughter. Congratulations to our county lord for finally coming home. ”
Princess Wuning looked at Shui Qingqing with affection, she couldn't believe that the daughter she missed day and night was really back, and took her into her arms again, crying: "My poor child, you must have suffered countless hardships over the years. It's all mothers who are sorry for you......"
Shui Qingqing quietly lay in Princess Wuning's arms, greedily sniffing the elegant and warm smell on her body, tears could no longer stop flowing down, and unconsciously reached out and hugged Princess Wuning.
She had been looking forward to her mother for 19 years, and finally she was looking forward to it. From then on, she is no longer alone, she is also a person with a mother......
When Shui Qingqing hugged Princess Wuning with both hands, Princess Wuning's body trembled, and the next moment, she was so excited that she cried again, and this time, Princess Wuning's tears were more joy.
She knew that her daughter was finally willing to recognize her. Nineteen years of hardship and suffering, at this moment, have turned into full happiness flowing in the heart of Princess Wuning!
Aunt Pity sat aside, looking at the mother and daughter who hugged their heads and cried, and they were also tears of joy, sighing that the old man has eyes, and good people will be rewarded in the end!
Halfway through the carriage, Aunt Lian asked Princess Wuning: "Princess, should we go back to Wujing Palace, or to Baifu?" ”
Hearing Aunt Pian mention Baifu, Shui Qingqing's expression suddenly froze-
When she recognized her mother, she was so shocked and excited that she ignored a very important thing.
It wasn't until this moment that she suddenly thought that her mother was the lady of the White Mansion.
And she has become the Bai family she hates the most, and she has also become a sister with her sworn enemy Bai Lingwei!?
Unconsciously, her hands were clenched into fists under her sleeves, and her face turned cold.
She will never forget Bai Lingwei's revenge for taking her child, and it also caused her to be able to have children again, and she was framed and humiliated several times when she was in the Hou Mansion.
What Shui Qingqing didn't know was that even giving her scissors and forcing her to break off her home was Bai Lingwei's idea......
Feeling the change in her face, Princess Wuning was very nervous and worried about her, and hurriedly held her hand to show comfort, and said to Aunt Pian: "This is not far from the other garden, go to the other garden to rest for one night, and we will go back to the capital tomorrow." ”
Aunt Lian looked at Shui Qingqing's current description, and immediately understood what Princess Wuning meant.
Now that she has recognized her daughter, Shui Qingqing, as the daughter of the White Mansion and the dignified lord of Guanqing, will not be able to appear in front of everyone like this. Princess Wuning, who loves her daughter very much, will never let people look down on her daughter, so she will go to the other garden halfway to help her redress and dress up before taking her back to Beijing.
In addition, the mother and daughter have just recognized each other, and there are countless things to say, if they go back, it will not be as quiet as the other courtyard.
In this way, Shui Qingqing had no objection, and followed her mother to the palace courtyard a few miles away.
At this time, although the apricot trees in the annex have not yet reached the flowering stage, many new shoots have emerged from the branches, but there is a bit of spring vitality.
Shui Qingqing came here for the first time, and Princess Wuning also came here after more than ten years after her face was ruined, and she also felt all kinds of feelings in her heart.
But at this moment, Princess Wu Ning's heart was more happy and joyful. After arriving at the other garden, he immediately asked his subordinates to prepare fragrant soup for Shui Qingqing to bathe and change clothes, took off a gray and white robe, changed into the exquisite dress she prepared for her, and then put on the gorgeous Yingluo she gave her.
Surrounded by maids and waiting in front of the bronze mirror, Shui Qingqing looked at herself in gorgeous clothes, and the beautiful Yingluo with the sparkling light on her neck, and couldn't believe her eyes.
If it weren't for the glaring short hair on her head, she would have thought everything was her dream.
The door was pushed open, and Aunt Lian came in with a mahogany gold tray in her hand, but in the tray was the bag of broken hair that Princess Wu Ning had brought out from the Sheng family.
Looking at the broken hair in the tray, Shui Qingqing looked stunned, and her heart ached faintly.
She said bitterly: "Why does my aunt keep it, looking at it will only make people feel sad......"
Aunt Pian smiled, but did not reply.
There was another person outside the house, but it was Princess Wuning who had taken off the green veil.
Princess Wuning has also just washed, removed the hairpin ring, her long hair is fluttering, and she has changed into a blue dress, her figure is slender and graceful like a girl, but her face is full of scars, at first glance, she actually shocked Shui Qingqing.
Although she knew about her mother's disfigurement before, but now that she saw the scar on her mother's face with her own eyes, Shui Qingqing remembered the rumors she had heard about her mother's fall from grace before, and her heart was sour, and she felt a little distressed.
Princess Wuning smiled softly at her, stepped forward to pick up the jade comb and gently combed her short hair meticulously, and said with a smile: "Your poor aunt is a capable person, not only can read palmistry, but also can receive hair, so my mother took your broken hair out of the Sheng family, just keep it and let Aunt Lian help you reconnect it." ”
Shui Qingqing was stunned, and looked back at Aunt Lian in disbelief.
Aunt Pian put down the tray and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the old slave will definitely tie the county lord's hair more beautiful than before, so that people can't see it at all." ”
After that, the dexterous hands began to work, and they really braided Shui Qingqing's broken hair into thin braids and knotted them together.
Aunt Pian's hair knotted quickly and well, and in less than an hour, she would tie all the broken hair again.
But because part of the broken hair was lost, it was still a little short of being completely connected, seeing this, Princess Wuning didn't say a word and picked up scissors to cut her own hair, and made up for the missing broken hair for Shui Qingqing.
Shui Qingqing was shocked and wanted to grab Princess Wuning's scissors, but Princess Wuning had quickly cut off a handful of jet-black hair from her head and handed it to Aunt Li.
Shui Qingqing was so moved that she shed tears, Princess Wu Ning helped her wipe her tears, and said with a sad smile: "Silly child, mother owes you, don't say these hairs, even if you want your mother to give you her life, your mother is willing to do it - so good, from now on, mother and you are like this hair extension, closely connected, never separated again." ”
Looking at the sudden lack of hair in Princess Wuning's ears, Shui Qingqing choked up and said, "My aunt told me before, my mother left me back then, maybe she was framed by the Yang family...... I don't blame my mother, and she doesn't have to feel ashamed of me......"
Princess Wu Ning was even more heartbroken when she saw her so well-behaved and considerate, and stroked her hair and said guiltily: "After all, it was my mother's uselessness that didn't protect you well." You don't blame me, but I blame myself......"
In order to divert the topic and prevent the mother and daughter from being sad anymore, Aunt Lian tied all Shui Qingqing's hair, and said with a smile: "After the great calamity, there will be a blessing." The county lord has endured all the hardships in the world, and now the old slave helps the county lord to tie his hair, and he will be happy and complete in the future, marry a good man, and have many sons and many blessings and longevity! ”
Shui Qingqing sat in a daze, watching herself in the bronze mirror change into her original appearance again, which was originally a happy thing, but her heart was sad.
She was hurt by Bai Lingwei and it was difficult to have children, plus her previous relationship with the Wang family, and the replacement Sheng Yu Chongxi, so, even if she is now the county lord, even if she is sorry for her aunt to take care of a broken hair, I am afraid that it will be difficult to marry a good husband, let alone have more children......
Princess Wu Ning saw that her eyes were dim, although she didn't want to mention her sadness, but there were some things that she had to understand clearly.
She asked softly: "I heard You'er say, you came to the capital a year ago to look for relatives, why did you later become the daughter of the Sheng family, and you also married Chongxi to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion?" In between...... But what happened? ”
Hearing this, Shui Qingqing's heart froze-
This is the deepest painful secret she hides in her heart, and she has never told anyone, even Mei Zijin, she has worked hard to hide it.
But the person in front of him is his mother. What's more, she was ready to go back to Baifu to expose Bai Lingwei's crimes and officially ask her to return to Yun'er. Therefore, these things must be told to my mother before she can be supported.
Thinking of this, Shui Qingqing took a heavy breath, and finally opened her heart for the first time, telling her mother and Aunt Pian about being forced to seed seeds by her husband's family in Ximo, then coming to the capital to look for relatives when she was pregnant, and then being rescued by the Sheng family by Bai Lingwei's snatching of her son, and until she replaced Sheng Yu and entered the Hou Mansion to find her son......
After listening to her, Princess Wuning and Aunt Lian were completely stunned!
Princess Wuning originally thought that her daughter would become a Chongxi lady, and it was pitiful enough to marry into the Hou Mansion with linen and filial piety, and when she knew that Shui Qingqing was married to a dumb child before, and was forced to give birth to a child, she was even more robbed of her son by Bai Lingwei, and it was even more difficult to have children in this life, Princess Wuning was like a bolt from the blue, her heart hurt to the point of collapse, she stepped forward to hug Shui Qingqing, and cried sadly: "My poor child, what kind of life have you lived, you have suffered so many sins...... It's all my mother's fault, if I hadn't left you in the West Desert in the first place, you wouldn't have to suffer so much......"
Princess Wuning blamed herself and grieved beyond measure, and felt that her heart was about to break.
These sufferings and secrets have been hidden in her heart for too long, and she is so depressed that Shui Qingqing is breathless, but now that she can tell her closest people, Shui Qingqing has been relieved a lot.
She smiled bitterly: "Mother, don't be sad, didn't Aunt Fang Cai also say, I have suffered too much, and there will be no more suffering in the future...... Now, I am very content to recognize my mother. And for the rest of the day, I have nothing else to ask for, only one wish, to seek justice from Bai Lingwei, and even more to ask her for the child. ”
In the end, Shui Qingqing's eyes lit up with hatred, and her tone was extremely firm.
She can forgive anyone, but she can't forgive Bai Lingwei and Mama Jin.
When she was in the Hou Mansion, she was in a weak position, and she was fiercely oppressed by Bai Lingwei, and she has not been able to regain her son from her hands openly.
But now, she has become the concubine of Baifu, and she is an upright county lord, but she wants to get back everything she owed to her one by one, and she wants to officially return Yun'er from her hands!
Listening to Shui Qingqing's words, Princess Wuning hated it even more, gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "The Yang family has separated our mother and daughter for nineteen years, and her daughter has done such a crazy thing to you, and I will never spare them!" ”
Aunt Lian also comforted Shui Qingqing and said: "Don't be discouraged, there are no absolutes in the world, maybe there will be a good marriage waiting for the princess in the future." ”
After that, Aunt Pian looked at Princess Wuning without saying anything.
Princess Wu Ning understood what she meant.
Up to now, Princess Wuning, who is so guilty of her daughter that she can't recover, as Aunt Pie said before, can't wait to compensate Shui Qingqing with the best things in the world.
Therefore, if Princess Wuning, who had a trace of hesitation before, now has no hesitation.
She took Shui Qingqing's hand and said firmly: "My daughter will not die alone - my mother ruined this face in order to save your aunt Queen Chen when she was young, but she got you a good marriage." Now that I think about it, what my mother did back then was worth it. ”
However, just when Duke Wuning told Shui Qingqing what Empress Chen had promised back then, there was a fire outside the window......
