Chapter 19 The Mother Invites
From the seaside to the Providence Villa, it is not even half a day's journey, and the so-called chariot and horse team is actually only four carriages. So the speed of travel was not slow, and Cher felt that it was just a trance work, and the carriage stopped.
During this period, Qiuru on her right looked at the scenery, but she didn't know if she was in her eyes or in her heart. Qiu Ping on her left also looked at the "scenery", but only she knew whether the "scenery" appeared in her sight again along the way.
Xue'er was the most silent of the three, thinking about her thoughts very quietly, but her heart was at a loss.
For as long as she can remember, she has lived on the island of the Holy Maiden, cultivating every day, watching new girls join, and watching some girls who have cultivated a little bit leave.
She didn't know why Yan Rumei left her alone, except for forcing her to cultivate, it was actually quite good to her. She wanted books such as medicine, and all the books Yan Rumei found were unique, and she wanted to practice dancing in addition to cultivation, and Yan Rumei did not object.
Even if her cultivation level was significantly higher than that of other saints, she had never ordered someone to take her away from the island of saints. Even when Lingxin was taken away, she stepped forward to obstruct her, and Yan Rumei also accommodated her, leaving Lingxin alone with her.
It can be said that no matter whether Yan Rumei is good or bad, her life memory in the past sixteen years is only the small Virgin Island.
She didn't know who her parents were, whether they were alive, or where they were. Even, she didn't know what kind of connection she had with the land under her feet now!
Follow the old man to the Providence Villa, one is the old man's request, hoping that she can identify the woman with plum blossom moles on the soles of her feet, and be able to find the owner of the Demon Princess's Tears, that is, Xuanyuan Yu, better. And the other reason is because of Shan Tianjiao's deathbed. No matter what, the other party saved his life, and he should go to Providence Villa by himself.
However, after Fang deliberately let Shan Tianying see his phoenix-patterned jade pendant, Shan Tianying's reaction also showed that there seemed to be some kind of connection between herself and the Heavenly Providence Villa. It's just that this kind of incomprehensible connection not only makes her feel at ease, but is inexplicably dazed and uneasy.
After changing places with Qiuping, she didn't dare to take a look at the surrounding environment, not because she didn't want to, but because she didn't dare. She didn't know what she would see, and she didn't have the courage to bear it, so she preferred to hide in the middle, silent all the way, in a trance.
Qiu Ru also seems to have some kind of concern, but she has always been silent and silent, and Xue'er has no way to guess, so she doesn't want to disturb her to see the scenery outside the carriage, and Qiuping, if she doesn't look at Shan Tianying because of the position of Xue'er and her main window, it is estimated that she will even have the mind to strangle herself!
This, Cher has no doubt.
It was quiet all the way and there was no noise. It should be that Shan Tianying chose a quieter route with few pedestrians, so Cher was even more lazy to look outside.
As the carriage slowed down and finally came to a steady stop, Cher broke free from her thoughts. She took a deep breath, and then she mustered up the courage to lift the curtain of the carriage!
Qiu Ping had already gone down in front of her, and Qiu Ru was also preparing to go down from the other side, leaving Xue'er alone in the carriage, and she couldn't think about it.
However, as Cher's people got out of the carriage, a large clean and steady hand reached out in front of her again.
Xue'er was stunned for a moment, looked up, and saw a man's slightly smiling eyes.
It was the young man who patted Shan Tianying on the shoulder when he was in a daze at the carriage he was in. Although she is not impressed by this person, because of the short time, Xue'er still has some impressions.
Regarding this person's initiative to reach out, Xue'er instinctively resisted from the bottom of her heart, and couldn't say why, just resisted.
With a gentle smile, Xue'er said "Thank you", but instead of putting her palm into the big hand that was still stretched out in front of her as expected by the other party, she reached out to hold Qiu Ping's shoulder, who had not yet left the carriage, and jumped down!
It took all the effort to come up, and how much effort could it cost her to jump? Anyway, she has also practiced some dances, and her body is light, so that she will not twist her feet because she doesn't know how to do light skills.
Nodding to the other party again, Xue'er grabbed Qiu Ping with one hand and hurriedly chased in the direction of the mysterious old man and Yang Jin. The remaining young man stood in front of the carriage and did not move, but a subtle look of anger flashed in his eyes.
The old man and Yang Jin, accompanied by Shan Tianying, had already walked to the gate of Providence Villa, a middle-aged man in a dark blue robe had a square face, and his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Shan Tianying, and there was a beautiful woman beside him, with a light purple dress, eyebrows, and two shallow fishtails at the corners of his eyes. She followed closely by the middle-aged man's side, her demeanor calm and gentle.
Judging by the looks of the two and the distance they are standing, these two should be a couple. Behind him were a large number of people, of all shapes and colors, all standing there to greet the arrival of the old man.
The reason why Xue'er knows that this is the "Providence Villa" in the mouth of the old man and Shan Tianying is because those four strong and powerful characters are too obvious!
I didn't care to carefully observe the gate of the Providence Villa, and when she arrived at this completely unfamiliar place, the only thing Xue'er wanted to do was to follow the footsteps of the mysterious old man, in case she lost herself in this sparse place, she couldn't find a place to cry.
Xue'er trotted two steps, caught up with the old man's pace, and followed behind the old man with Qiuru Qiuping.
Seeing the girl running over, Shan Tianying's eyes flashed, and then he avoided it, walked forward quickly, walked in front of the middle-aged man in the dark blue robe in front of the main entrance, and bowed: "Father, mother, the child is fortunate not to be dishonored!" ”
After saying this, he turned around and stood with the couple, and was about to kneel down to the mysterious old man, but was stopped by the old man: "Master Shan, you people in the rivers and lakes have always been informal, why do you care about these false courtesies at this moment?" It's better to be free. ”
After saying this, he personally stepped forward and hugged the man in the dark blue robe who had bent down, and at the same time took the opportunity to attach it to the ear and whispered to the place that he didn't know what to say, so the middle-aged man's face changed, and he no longer insisted, and said in the same low voice: "It's Shan Zheng who is not thoughtful!" ”
At the same time, Shan Tianying also stood beside the middle-aged beauty, whispering something in her ear, and then Xue'er felt that the eyes of the middle-aged beauty and Shan Tianying fell on her almost at the same time!
The phoenix-patterned jade pendant is naturally still hanging on Xue'er's waist at the moment, because she trotted all the way over, and it is still swinging slightly at the moment.
Xue'er was keenly aware of the surprise and excitement in the middle-aged beauty's eyes, but because of the politeness between Shan Zheng and the old man, she could only stand there and stare at Xue'er.
However, Shan Tianying's gaze is much more copied, so complicated that Xue'er can't understand the meaning at all.
I couldn't read it, and Xue'er didn't bother to guess, because the old man and Shan Zheng had already finished greeting each other and were about to walk towards the completely open door, and then found that Xue'er hadn't followed again, so she turned her head to look.
Xue'er's gaze met the gaze of the middle-aged beauty, and she was shocked to see a little gentleness and kindness in the other party's dark and bright eyes, and a trace of indescribable sadness and melancholy hidden in it, which made her heart tremble, and a word instantly came to mind in her heart - mother!
She didn't know why she felt this way for a strange woman she had never seen before, as if a child who had been wandering for a long time finally saw the arms of her longing mother, and the impulse of tears made her whole body tremble slightly, so that she completely forgot everything around her, and her eyes were full of only the gentle smile of the middle-aged beautiful woman.
She suddenly felt that the woman's embrace must be very warm, as she could tell from the way she looked at Shan Tianying!
Xue'er was in a trance for a while, and she didn't pay attention to the old man's gaze at her, or the Qiuru Qiuping sisters beside her left and right, and then held her arm and followed the old man's footsteps.
Along the way, Xue'er's mind was full of gentle and sad eyes, and she didn't pay attention to the changes in the scenery on both sides at all, and she didn't listen to a word of the conversation between the old man and Shan Zheng.
Providence Villa is very large, covering an area of 1,000 acres, although the pavilions and pavilions in it are not beautiful, but they are also simple and atmospheric, and everywhere is calm and vigorous.
Shan Zheng personally accompanied, and Yang Jin accompanied the old man on the left and right. As you walk, you will be introduced to the scenery in front of you.
And the old man was also very calm, he listened very carefully and carefully, and from time to time he also expressed his own opinion, which made Shan Zheng say yes again and again.
Shan Tianying and the middle-aged beauty were one step behind, and they happened to be walking side by side with Xue'er again.
When she got closer, Xue'er found that the middle-aged beauty's face was slightly pale, and her haggard color was very obvious, which made her heart hurt with it.
Her hand was tightly grasping one of Shan Tianying's hands, and the pale cyan veins on the back of her hand appeared through the skin, and even the bone joints were a little white, which could show her strength.
The middle-aged beautiful woman let Shan Tianying's other hand support her, her body seemed to be still trembling, and even her steps were a little vain, so she followed Shan Zheng and the old man forward.
In order to welcome the arrival of the old man, Shan Zheng should have put a lot of thought into it, and the accommodation arranged for this group of people was quiet and not remote, almost in the very center of the entire villa, and was guarded by other large and small gardens, which was very easy to defend.
From the outside, it looks plain and unremarkable, and it is not easy to attract people's attention.
Xue'er was naturally arranged in the room, but it was arranged by the middle-aged beauty herself, during which Shan Tianying kept supporting her.
After arranging everything, when Shan Tianying helped the middle-aged beauty to leave, his footsteps paused, let go of the middle-aged beauty in appreciation, walked in front of Xue'er, and said in a low voice: "Please forgive Tianying for being abrupt, my mother wants to gossip with the girl, I don't know if it is convenient for the girl?"
