"You look exactly the same as her, but your temperament is completely different, compared to the painting is tranquil and refined, you are looking forward to life, delicate but not charming, naturally it is very different..."

"She is following us, but she has her own ideas, I have known for a long time, I can't live with her after all, but I can't live with you even more, child!"

Chen Hua'er was speechless, and said in a dumb voice, "You, how are you..."

"You know I'm not a painter..."

Mrs. Chen's face was already full of tears, "I can't stand you, and I can't bear it, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, if you don't enter the palace, the entire Chen family and even Haining will be in big trouble..."

She settled down again, and said slowly in a hoarse voice, "At first, I was just suspicious, until then, seeing that you like to eat rose cakes, love to wear aqua blue clothes, and also ordered the girls to put calming lilies in my room, these paintings will never be made..."

"Or rather, she rarely eats sweets and pastries, and she wears aqua blue, and the only one is the one you wore that day, which is really beautiful!" As if she remembered something, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

"Even Lily, I naturally know that you are for my good, but my Zhihua never touches those flowers..."

Chen Hua'er's expression was complicated, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes, "Then, why didn't you speak?" ”

"But I really think of you as my own daughter, child!"

From that day when she woke up, the confusion and panic in her eyes were still clearly visible, until she later knew that not marrying the royal family would really bring disaster to the Chen family, so she agreed without hesitation...

How much guilt she felt in her heart, even more than she had lost her daughter, she couldn't sleep for many days, thinking about her every bit of Chen's Mansion, all of them were vivid, thinking of the last glance she had before getting into the sedan chair and looking at Chen's Mansion, it was still like a world away!

She hadn't been surprised at first, but she knew that it wasn't impossible...

Especially the feeling she gave her, just like her own daughter, she was unconsciously attracted, and she couldn't help but get close, which made people feel distressed and uncomfortable...

"I really think of you as my own daughter!" She hugged Chen Hua'er into her arms, a little uncontrollable.

Chen Hua'er was a little stunned, and slowly hugged her.

"If you still want to, you still call me a mother, if you don't want to..."

"If you don't dislike it, let me be your daughter!" Chen Hua'er's hands tightened unconsciously, and she spoke again with a hint of hoarseness.

"I haven't had a mother since I was a child, and seeing you is like being my mother, if... If you can, you're my mother..."

"Okay, how can I dislike it, with such a daughter, it's too late for me to be happy, I'm happy, happy!" Mrs. Chen cried and laughed.

"Now I am your mother, and you are my daughter!"

Is this what mom feels like?

She knows that she has her own daughter, but now that Zhihua is gone, it is her Chen Hua'er who stays here, she occupies her body, and she will be filial to her parents for her and help her complete her mission!

She also has her own children, so she naturally knows the feeling of mother-son connection, and she really has a feeling for her, as if the Chen family should be her home, and this should be her parents...

After the two opened their hearts, they became closer, and the slight discomfort they used to have no longer existed, similar eyebrows and eyes, endless words...

"If you still call me to paint, I'm used to it..."

"Good, good!"

After a long while, Mrs. Chen considered speaking.

"My mother heard that it seems to be..."

Chen Hua'er also straightened her face, poured another cup of tea for her, and then slowly spoke, "After all, she is the concubine of the fifth elder brother, to be honest, I can't do anything to her now!" ”

"Naturally, it's just that the palace is dangerous, you should understand what your mother means!" Madame Chan covered her hand again, her eyes full of softness.

"Mother, don't worry about me, now that you and your father can stay in the capital for a few days, I can feel a lot more at ease..."

"I'm afraid that the city of Beijing is going to be restless again..."

Mrs. Chen was a little surprised, and she was stunned again, "I also heard what your father said, Ye County is probably also because of this, it's just that, don't talk about this, my mother heard them talk about it, Xiao Wu is also in the palace?" ”

"Do you recognize him?"

Chen Hua'er nodded, and said, "I... Yes, it's just like an old man before me! ”

Mrs. Chen understood and spoke again, "He and Hua'er have known each other since childhood, but... What do you see? ”

"It shouldn't be..."Chen Hua'er took a sip of tea before saying.

"That's good, although he and Hua'er are both apprentices of their fathers, there is still one less person who knows that it is less dangerous!"

Hearing this, Chen Hua'er raised her eyes and spoke, "Then do you know why Master Shu accepted the painting as an apprentice?" ”

Mrs. Chen paused for a moment, then reacted, and began to say slowly, "That, it should have been more than ten years ago, I remember that the painting was still young..."

"About the time she was five years old, Haining City knew that our Chen family had a five-year-old little daughter who became a poet, and suddenly one day, the painting suddenly had a high fever, and it didn't get better for several weeks, seeing that the doctors had no way, there was an old gentleman who came to the door, looking not very serious, and the sloppy beard was also, we naturally didn't expect that he was the Su Qinghe of Jiuhua Mountain..."

......

"That's what happened..."

Chen Hua'er nodded, but she was still a little puzzled, she always felt that there was some kind of connection between her and Zhihua, so what was the reason?

"What's wrong?" Seeing that her expression was wrong, Mrs. Chen asked with a little worry.

Chen Hua'er reacted and smiled, "It's okay!" ”

"But there are some things I haven't figured out yet, and I'll tell my mother in the future!"
