Chapter 25: Mother and Daughter Recognize Each Other
The three of them came to Tianjia Village, Tian Yu was no longer at home, and after asking the villagers, they learned that Tian Yu was afraid that Cheng Chen's people would come to look for him again, and he was also afraid of affecting the villagers of Tianjia Village, so he left the village after resting at home for two days, leaving only a letter.
The letter wrote: "Qing'er, my father's injury is no longer a big problem, don't worry about it, go to the house to pack your luggage, go with Shen Gongzi, Shen Gongzi has both ability and political integrity, a talent, and is a person worthy of trust, you don't look for me, when the time comes, I will go to look for you, don't say much, don't read!"
Shen Lu was a little lost: "It seems that your father is afraid that the letter will fall into the hands of the bad guys, so he didn't dare to write the mystery of my life experience in the letter." ”
Chen Qingyi said: "I have also heard Miss Tian say about Brother Shen's family, it is rare that Shen Mu's two families get along so well, I think it doesn't matter who is whose son this is, Brother Shen shouldn't be too entangled, just let it be." ”
"What Miss Chen said is, let's go, now take you to my house, and then find a way to help your mother and daughter meet. ”
The three of them rented a carriage and rushed to Luoyang.
Shen Mansion has been anxious for the past two months, the two sons have been out for almost three months, and there is no news, that Cheng Chen has already returned with Bai Qian, who has been subdued, but Shen Lu and Mu Yun are missing, and later received Mu Yun's carrier pigeon, knowing that Shen Lu had arrested Bai Qian with Cheng Chen, Shen Feng went to Guiyun Villa to ask what happened, the Cheng family not only said that they did not know, but blamed Shen Feng, saying that the youngest son of the Shen family, Mu Yun, abducted the Cheng family's youngest daughter Cheng Qi, Shen Feng was also speechless, and returned in a huff.
Early this morning, Lu Ying was in a rather bad mood, and complained to Shen Feng: "I said that Feng'er and they are still young, and they have to arrest people, now it's okay, one ran to Mobei, the other is missing, and the Cheng family is harmed, what do you say you have to do as the leader of the martial arts alliance?" Lu Ying has always been a reasonable person, but she was only thinking about her heart, so she said this.
Shen Feng said: "It's a good thing that the children are trained more, as for Lu'er, don't worry, the Cheng family kid has sent people to inquire about Lu'er's return many times, thinking that he doesn't know Lu'er's whereabouts at all, and Lu'er should be safe." ”
"Hey, I can only comfort myself like this. ”
"Master, madam, the eldest young master is back, and he brings two girls with him. The servant shouted outside.
Lu Ying hurriedly rushed out when she heard this, and Shen Feng also followed briskly towards the door.
Lu Ying hugged Shen Lu: "Where did you go, I don't know if I want to send a message, your brother knows how to send a carrier pigeon." ”
"Alright, alright, let's all go into the house and say. Shen Feng was also very happy to see his son return.
Everyone entered the room and sat down, Lu Ying kept looking at Tian Qingqing and Chen Qingyi, and asked, "Lu'er, who are these two girls?"
Shen Lu told him how he was framed by Cheng Chen, how he was rescued by Tian Qingqing and all kinds of experiences in Hell Village from beginning to end, because the King of Hades had instructed him, so Shen Lu did not mention the name of Hell Village, and replaced it with Mysterious Island, nor did he say the name of anyone in Hell Village, the two of them heard that their son's experience in the past three months was so magical, and they listened fascinated, and they didn't interject until Shen Lu finished speaking.
Shen Feng slapped the table angrily: "The Cheng family has sinister intentions to such an extent, but unfortunately there is no evidence, and I can't do anything about him because of his dead face, in this way, next month is another martial arts conference, this martial arts conference is held in his Cheng family, this more than a month, I came to find Sima Ling, let him testify that Cheng Chen harmed you, I will definitely ask his Cheng family for justice." ”
Lu Ying walked in front of Tian Qingqing: "Thanks to the girl for saving the child, I, as a mother, thank you Miss Tian here." ”
Tian Qingqing hurriedly stood up in a panic and returned the salute.
Lu Ying walked up to Chen Qingyi again: "I have seen Mrs. Hu, she is a well-informed woman, and she and her daughter Cheng Qi are incompatible with the evil Fuyun Villa. ”
Chen Qingyi gave Lu Ying a big gift: "Can Madame help the little girl and her mother meet each other? ”
"This, this one is a little difficult. ”
"It's not that difficult," Shen Feng concluded: "Next month is the martial arts conference, I take this reason to invite his whole family to my mansion as guests, and then you can find a time to bring Mrs. Hu into your room to meet Miss Chen." ”
Chen Qingyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly wanted to bow down and thank him, but was stopped by Lu Ying.
Shen Feng said: "That's it, you guys are tired of traveling for a few days, Lu'er, prepare two rooms for the two girls, go and rest first, I'll write a post for the Cheng family." ”
The three of them went back to the inner hall to rest, and Lu Ying turned to Shen Feng and said, "These two girls are afraid that they have Lu'er's favorite, which one do you think?"
"Lu'er is like me, a dedicated person, how can he fall in love with two women at the same time. ”
Lu Ying sneered: "Lu'er is like you, what about Yun'er?"
"Yun'er, it's hard to say, Lu'er is absolutely single-minded. ”
"Then you say, which girl is?"
"You're a mother, you should see this better than I do. ”
"Looks, the two of them are very good-looking, Miss Chen gives people a feeling of being knowledgeable and courteous, I like it very much, Miss Tian has more local flavor, I would prefer to be Miss Chen?"
Shen Feng said with a smile: "I won't tease you, you deserted when Lu'er introduced you just now, and said that Miss Chen wanted to see her mother before she got married." ”
"Have you ever said this? In that case, the person that Lu'er likes is this Tian girl?"
Shen Feng said: "Maybe, I think this Tian girl is very good, she grew up in the countryside since she was a child, she is simple, upright and heartless, very good." Let's not worry too much about the marriage of our children, if I had listened to my parents back then, would I have been able to marry you?"
"Yes, yes, where are the two sons worried about coming over, Yun'er is now with the Cheng family's girl, Cheng Qi's girl is the same as her mother, she is a kind-hearted person, but it's a pity that she was born in the Cheng family, and Yun'er is probably fated to be inseparable. ”
"I said that you are old now, why do you like to think cranky, Yun'er doesn't necessarily like the Cheng family girl, I will write an invitation letter now, you send it to the Cheng family, you go to the Cheng family again, just say that you want to ask Mrs. Hu about embroidery techniques, and tell her to come. ”
Lu Ying came to Fuyun Villa with an invitation, and the wife of the leader of the martial arts alliance came to see her, and she still had to give face, and the Cheng family's father and son both came out to greet her.
Cheng Yu asked Ming Laiyi and read the post: "Why does Brother Shen care so much about this martial arts conference, and he wants my whole family to visit?"
"Fuyun Villa is a well-known gateway in the martial arts, naturally it is different from other sects, the husband was originally going to come to deliver the post in person, but today the child Shen Lu suddenly returned home, but it seems that there is something wrong with his legs and feet, and the husband will take him to see a famous doctor in the city, so he invited me to come and invite, and please don't blame the owner of Cheng Zhuang. Lu Ying looked at Cheng Chen and said this deliberately.
Cheng Yu's two father and son's faces changed, but they returned to normal in an instant, Cheng Yu smiled: "I said that the young son is young and promising, and there will definitely be no major incidents, you see that this is not coming back, Mrs. Shen rest assured, tomorrow our family should also visit the young son." ”
"Okay, then I won't bother, oh, by the way, I have some embroidery questions I want to ask Susu for advice, don't forget to bring her tomorrow." ”
"Su Su's level is as good as Mrs. Shen, I really laughed, okay, I'll take her with me to visit tomorrow. ”
The father and son of the Cheng family sent Lu Ying to the door, looking at Lu Ying's back in the distance, Cheng Chen asked: "Dad, will it be the Hongmen banquet tomorrow, knowing that I have harmed his son, and I will deal with us tomorrow?"
Cheng Yu groaned slightly: "You attempted to kill Shen Lu that day, who else knows?"
"It's just Yuan Xiaotian, Guo Li, Sima Ling, and a little girl from the countryside, by the way, and the black and white impermanence I mentioned to you. ”
"Yuan Guo and the others are our people, don't worry, the words of the little girl in the countryside have no weight at all, and there is no need to worry, black and white are impermanent, and the words spoken by people who pretend to be ghosts can also fool the past, now I am afraid of Sima Ling, although this person is not a good person, but he used to have a very high reputation in the rivers and lakes, if there is evidence from him, I am afraid that many people will believe it. ”
"So what to do, let's not go tomorrow. ”
"Don't be afraid, let's go tomorrow, then Sima Ling, you have been looking for a few months, maybe you will die a long time ago, even if you are not dead and they find you, I estimate that Shen Feng will not attack us tomorrow, he must want to wait until the martial arts conference, and do it in front of me in front of the heroes, I can't let him Shen Feng follow his wishes, hum!"
The next day, the Cheng family of four came to the Shen Mansion, Shen Feng took Lu Ying and Shen Lu out to greet the guests, Cheng Chen saw Shen Lu standing in front of him intact, and couldn't help but lower his head, not daring to look him in the eyes.
Cheng Yu hugged his fists and said: "Brother Shen, you and I haven't seen each other a few times in a year, but why did you invite me to come this time?"
Shen Feng smiled and said: "You and I have a high status in the rivers and lakes, and we should have moved around more, besides, next month's martial arts conference, you and I should discuss it, alas, why didn't the eldest lady come?"
"Oh, Humble Jing has something to do and returned to her parents' house, at the invitation of Mrs. Shen, I brought Su Su. Speaking of the martial arts conference, I sent out all the posts, we are close to the two of us, I didn't send it to you in advance, and I just brought it to you this time. ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, please come in. ”
Everyone entered the house and sat down in the hall, Lu Ying took Hu Susu's hand and said: "Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, go, go to my house, I have a question about needlework and thread to ask you, let them discuss the facts on the rivers and lakes." ”
Hu Susu followed Lu Ying into the room, only to see a young woman in the room, this woman has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and is generous, although it is the first time to see her, but Hu Susu has an inexplicable good impression of her, and can't help asking: "Who is this girl?"
"Qingyi, you can say it yourself. Lu Ying looked at Chen Qingyi and nodded.
"Qingyi?" Hu Susu heard these two words, and his heart was shocked.
"My name is Chen Qingyi, my father's name is Chen Youchang, and I heard from my father that my mother's name is Hu Susu. ”
Hearing this, Hu Susu was like a thunderbolt from the blue: "What, what did you say, are you still alive? are you still alive?"
"Yes, our father and daughter were rescued by good men that day, and have been living on an island ever since. ”
Hu Susu stepped forward and grabbed Chen Qingyi's hands, and asked tremblingly, "You mean, your father is still alive?"
"Yes. Dad asked me to ask you, did you know when my grandfather kicked my parents out of the house?"
Hu Susu wept and said: "My father locked me in the house that day, and later told me that your friends often had a dispute with him, and ran away from home with you in a fit of anger, I knew that it must be my father who drove you away, and I later forced me to die, so that my father could not help me, and sent people out to look for it, and then people came back and said that your father and daughter had been killed by traitors on the way to Beijing to sue the emperor, and the corpses were nowhere to be found. I don't believe that, but I can't find you. ”
"Dad still has a little grudge against you, and this time I insisted on coming out to see my mother. ”
Hu Susu hugged Chen Qingyi: "Child, my mother is not worthy, my mother is not worthy of seeing you again." ”
"Mother, don't say that, I can't complain about you in that situation at that time. ”
"Since you left, I have been depressed and unhappy, and I have thought about seeking death several times, but I have been dissuaded by my father and mother. Later, my father introduced me to a family as a concubine, but I didn't want to, but my father forced me to die, so I had to obey. Marrying into the Cheng family is another mistake I made in my life. Cheng's father and son are treacherous and sinister, and living under the same roof with them is like suffering. ”
"Mother, you have suffered for so many years. ”
"No, no, no, you have suffered, I am retribution, my father treated your father and daughter like that, this is retribution to me. ”
Chen Qingyi wiped his tears: "Mother, since your life is not satisfactory, why don't you come with me and go to the island where I live." It's a paradise. ”
Hu Susu lowered his head: "How can I have the face to see your father?"
"It's okay, it's good to explain it clearly, it's all caused by my grandfather, and it has nothing to do with you!"
"But, but, the Cheng family is huge, and I'm afraid that if I go, it will bring harm to you. ”
"It's okay, ordinary people can't find that place. Chen Qingyi suddenly thought of something: "By the way, do I still have a sister, is she willing to go with us?"
"Well, her name is Cheng Qi, this child has been with me for a long time since she was a child, and her heart is different from that of the Cheng family's father and son, I think, she is willing to go with us, but she is not at home now, it seems that she is with some Mu Yun is the second son of the Shen family who went to Mobei, and I don't know when I will come back. Otherwise, we'll leave when she returns. ”
Lu Ying watched on the side for a long time, and listened to it for a long time, she was quite moved, and she also cried, and when she heard this, she hurriedly said: "Sister of the Hu family, if you decide to go with your daughter, you have to do it as soon as possible, first, I don't know when Cheng Qi will come back, and Miss Chen may not have time to wait for her, and second, Cheng Qi may not necessarily be willing to go with you, so I think if you want to leave, you will leave in the next few days, as for Cheng Qi, I will come to find her in the future." ”
