"Tick~"

Drops of water dripped down the eaves onto the bluestone slabs, and curling sandalwood smoke drifted through the cracks in the house to the outside, and a well-dressed, graceful, richly dressed woman sat upright on a soft couch made of goose down, her eyes were knocked, and her fingertips were spinning a string of walnut strings that were played with.

"Madame!"

A little maid stumbled in, and the woman opened her eyes impatiently.

"What a system. She said displeased.

"Madam, a guard just said that there is a boy outside who looks exactly like his deceased uncle!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The woman stood up suddenly, and the walnut skewers in her hand fell to the ground and scattered, and when she said this, she had actually lifted her feet and hurried out with the little maid.

......

Chu Mingshu was taken aback by the guard, but he was a little unsure whether he should go in or not, he took out the envelope in his arms, he felt that he already knew roughly what Qi Sanniang meant.

She was born in a wealthy family, but she was willing to stay in a small mountain village for the sake of Qi Laosan, and she was a peasant woman all her life, and she had no contact with her mother's family for ten years.

It's all for Qi Laosan!

If you want to get Qi Laosan back on his feet, there is no way in a small mountain village, and there is no way in a small county seat, but in Shangcheng, as a main city, the doctor here must not be a small mountain village, a small county town can be compared, as long as the Shangguan family is willing to help, Qi Laosan's leg has the hope of being healed!

Thinking about it like this, Chu Mingshu felt more and more that he was thinking correctly, so he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and walked directly through the door, no matter what, as long as there was hope for Qi Laosan to stand up again, he was willing to give it a try.

The porter did not stop him, nor did the maids on the path, most of them looked at him with strange looks, and looked at him with amazed, even frightened eyes, as if they wanted to say something.

Chu Mingshu pursed his lips, frowned, and couldn't help touching his face, "Could it be that the aesthetics will be different depending on the region, and in their opinion, I look particularly terrible?"

just walked straight, and no one took the initiative to talk to him, but Chu Mingshu didn't know the way, so he asked a young round-faced girl who hadn't had time to run away, "Cough, this sister.... Excuse me, where can I meet the owner of this house?"

The girl was timid, opened her mouth to say something, looked up and saw the noble lady coming towards her, immediately lowered her head, her body was blessed, and she hurriedly retreated, Chu Mingshu was embarrassed, but when she turned around, she saw an exceptionally beautiful woman walking towards her, the woman's face was somewhat similar to Qi Sanniang, but it was different from Qi Sanniang's old age, she looked exceptionally young and more beautiful.

"Who are you?"

The woman looked at Chu Mingshu with a gaze like a torch, as if she was about to burn a hole in his face.

"Mrs. Huiyu, my name is Qi Yuan, and Shangguan Rong is my adoptive mother. ”

Chu Mingshu handed the envelope to the woman as he spoke, but the woman didn't answer, just looked at him straightly, half a ring, she smiled, the meaning was unknown, but it was very good-looking.

"Adoptive mother?"

Chu Mingshu blinked, he couldn't figure out the other party's temperament, this woman was similar to Qi Sanniang's birth, probably Qi Sanniang's sister, right? ”

"You come with me. The woman's expression flickered, and she suddenly turned and walked in one direction.

Chu Mingshu was a little unclear, so he actually wanted to talk about Qi Laosan's injury as soon as possible, and felt that it might be a little abrupt if he said this directly, so after weighing it, he followed the woman.

Shangguan's family is worthy of being a famous wealthy family in Shangcheng, along the way with flowers and birds, streams and rockeries, pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and paintings, very rich.

The woman took Chu Mingshu to a small courtyard, she sat on the stone bench, waved her hand to let everyone retreat, and then pointed to the position beside her, her eyes were gentle, her smile was kind, and she said to Chu Mingshu in a very soft voice: "Come and sit, talk to me, is it okay." ”

Chu Mingshu thought about it, nodded, and walked over to sit down according to his words, looking very well-behaved.

"Your name is Qi Yuan. ”

"Yes, ma'am. ”

"You said you were Shangguan Rong's adopted son?"

Chu Mingshu continued to nod.

"You don't look like you grew up in the countryside. ”

Chu Mingshu had a guess in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he still looked honest, and replied: "That's the case, I don't know who my parents are and where they are, I grew up in the mountains with my master since I was a child." ”

"Yamanaka?"

Seeing the other party's doubts, Chu Mingshu immediately turned out the set that Qi Lao San and Qi San Niangzi said again,

"I live with my master, I live in a Taoist hall in the mountains, the master taught me to read and write, play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, identify herbs, in my impression, the master knows astronomy, geography, omniscient, omniscient, he always has a way to find food, change the way to make delicious food, he never let me worry about my livelihood, just constantly urge me, let me learn more knowledge, read more books. ”

"Is there such a strange man?" The woman's eyes flashed, then she sighed and asked, "Who is your master's surname, where is he now, and how did you become Shangguan Rong's adopted son?"

Chu Mingshu shook his head, his eyes were sad, "I don't know the name of the master, he never mentioned it before, until he went to the immortal, I also ......"

"It's already immortal, this is really ......" The woman looked regretful, raised her hand and touched Chu Mingshu's head.

"That's right...... After burying the master, I thought about going to the outside world to see, but the mountain road was complicated, and I soon got lost...... Later, I fell into the trap, and finally I raised the ingots and found Daddy Qi, he is a good person, and so is my mother, they adopted me, and now ...... It's been three years. ”

"It's been three years!"

The woman's eyes suddenly widened, regardless of the dignity, she got up angrily and slapped the stone table in front of her hard, Chu Mingshu felt very painful when she looked at it.

"Madame...... What are you?"

The woman knew that she was out of shape, sat down and closed her eyes, took a deep breath to calm down, then turned her head and stared at Chu Mingshu seriously, "Good boy, you, do you want to, know your life experience." ”

"My ...... Background?"

Chu Mingshu looked surprised, only he knew where he came from, those nonsense things obviously couldn't withstand scrutiny in his own opinion, he had already thought of all the explanations, and how to make up for the loopholes between the words...... But on the contrary, whether it was the beautiful woman in front of him or his adoptive father and adoptive mother, they all chose to believe it.

Probably because of his young age? How could such a young child, who seemed well-behaved and sensible, lie, and besides, there was nothing else to explain his existence.

"Madam, maybe you misunderstood, I ......" Chu Mingshu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the woman, only to see her suddenly burst into tears, holding Chu Mingshu's hand hard, up and down, looking carefully, and said, "I know this is very sudden, and I also know that you may not be able to accept it for a while, I am sorry for you, good boy, I am your biological mother!"
