Chapter 22: I'm Here (Shen Mu asks more)
Shen Mengli didn't raise his head to say a word because he was preoccupied, but when he heard his brother introduce the helpers he brought, he inadvertently said the word Dongfang. Shen Mengli's delicate body trembled suddenly, and the moment he raised his head, a mist rose in his eyes, and his delicate and small right foot took a step forward......
Dongfang Xue clasped her fists at Shen's mother and saluted, "Juniors meet seniors!" After bowing, she straightened up. Dongfang Xue's eyes under the mask glanced at Shen Mengli, and then he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, like Shen Mengli, he didn't know how to face each other.
After all, Shen's mother has lived for most of her life, and she still has this eyesight, her daughter's abnormality can be hidden from others, but she can't hide Shen's mother's eyes, plus after Shen Mengli went home, all of them were punished, and Shen's mother also knew what the reason was. Mother Shen nodded at Dongfang Xue, looked Dongfang Xue up and down again, and then said to everyone: "Let's go, let's go inside and talk!" After finishing speaking, Mother Shen turned around and walked towards the pavilion behind her, Shen Mengli held Shen's mother's arm, and couldn't help but look back at Dongfang Xue when she was helping her mother to walk towards the pavilion.
Shen's mother's attitude towards Dongfang Xue is not normal, Dongfang Xue is here to help Shen Zhiyun, but Shen's mother's attitude is a little abnormal, the reason for this is that Dongfang Xue also knows, presumably Shen's mother knows something. After Shen Zhiyun saw his mother turn around, he immediately came to Dongfang Xue and said apologetically to Dongfang Xue: "Big brother, don't blame my mother, she wasn't like this when I was young, today... What's going on today......"
"Don't get in the way!" Dongfang Xue nodded to Shen Zhiyun, and then followed behind Shen Zhiyun and walked towards the pavilion together.
As soon as I entered the pavilion, I saw Shen Mu sitting at the head of the pavilion, holding a cup of tea in her hand, and Shen Mengli was standing behind Shen Mu, with her head down, her face was already bloodless. Shen's mother guessed something, naturally she couldn't hide it from Shen Mengli, Shen Mengli had been faintly worried in her heart, if her father came and saw Dongfang Xue, would she kill him, thinking of this, Shen Mengli couldn't help but raise her head and look at the white-haired man again......
"Sit down!" Mother Shen whispered to Shen Zhiyun and Bingling, with a smile on her face.
Shen Zhiyun nodded, but in an instant, he found that there were only two chairs here, seeing this, Shen Zhiyun immediately said to Dongfang Xue who was standing aside: "Brother Dongfang, please take a seat!
Shen Zhiyun gestured to Bingling again, and then walked behind Shen's mother. Dongfang Xue and Bingling were just about to sit down, when Shen's mother suddenly began to make trouble, only to see Shen's mother suddenly cough loudly, and then she was slightly angry with Shen Zhiyun and said, "I'll let you sit down with Bingling!"
Dongfang Xue just came to the chair next to her, and her feet stopped instantly, and then she turned to look at Shen Mu, and suddenly felt at a loss.
"Mother, Brother Dongfang is a guest, he is here to help the child......" Shen Zhiyun explained to Shen's mother again and again.
"I know!" Shen Mu's voice raised her score, glanced at Dongfang Xue, and then scolded Shen Zhiyun and said, "I will let you two sit down, you two will sit down, don't ask why!"
Bing Ling's eyes were also puzzled, she also wondered where Dongfang Xue, who came to Yaoguang Island for the first time, offended Shen's mother? Dongfang Xue walked back from the chair to the place where she had just stood, and then said to Shen Zhiyun: "Zhiyun! Don't say more, sit down and put it! I'll just stand here, out of the way!"
"This ......" Shen Zhiyun hesitated a little, but after seeing Dongfang Xue nodding to him, he obediently walked to the chair and sat down, Bingling sat next to Shen Zhiyun, looking at Shen's mother suspiciously, not knowing what Shen's mother was thinking.
"Standing here?" Shen Mu looked at Dongfang Xue suspiciously, then her eyes changed, and she asked Dongfang Xue slightly angrily, "Did I say you could stand here?"
"Mother......" Shen Zhiyun saw that Shen's mother was so difficult for Dongfang Xue, and immediately didn't want to get up, so he wanted to stand up on the chair. Shen Mengli lowered her head to death, because she knew Dongfang Xue's temper, if he argued with his mother, how would it be good......
Dongfang Xue bent down and hugged her fist at Shen's mother, and then said politely and softly: "The senior's family can be reunited today, the younger generation should not be disturbed, the younger generation will retreat and wait outside...... Dongfang Xue said a word, and then turned around to leave. Shen Mengli's delicate body trembled again, and then she raised her head to look at Dongfang Xue's back as she was about to leave.
"Stop!" Shen Mu said sternly to Dongfang Xue.
"It's a guest, you just stand here, I'll have a question for you in a moment. Mother Shen said to Dongfang Xue, Dongfang Xue bowed to Mother Shen again, and then stood aside, Mother Shen then said to him: "Don't blame my Shen family for being rude, after all, it was you who was rude first!"
"Juniors understand!" Dongfang Xue said politely to Shen's mother, Dongfang Xue at this moment has lost her previous arrogance at all, and is more like a handsome son.
Looking at Dongfang Xue and Shen Mu's cloudy chat, Shen Zhiyun and Bingling were extremely puzzled. Shen Zhiyun couldn't help but guess in his heart, did the eldest brother of the East know my mother, but seeing that his mother was upright, Shen Zhiyun didn't dare to ask more, so he had to sit quietly on the side and look at the two of them......
"Li'er, go pour tea for the guests!" Shen Mu instructed Shen Mengli behind her.
Shen's mother's words fell, but Shen Mengli didn't react, Shen's mother gently patted Shen Mengli's hand on her, and then called again: "Li'er?"
"Hmm, mother's ......" Shen Mengli reacted, raised her head and looked at her mother suspiciously. Everybody reads
Shen's mother sighed, and then repeated to Shen Mengli again: "Go and pour tea for the guests!"
"Yes!" Shen Mengli picked up the teapot on the table, and then walked over to Shen Zhiyun and Bingling and filled the teacups on the table in front of them. Shen Mengli was just about to return to Shen's mother's side, when Shen's mother suddenly said again: "Li'er, give the guest a teacup and pour it for him, don't let people scold us for not knowing etiquette!"
"Mother!" Shen Mengli's face was shocked, and then he reminded Shen's mother and said: "This tea was just brewed, and it's still hot, or I'll put it on the table first and wait for ......."
"You will do whatever you want!" Shen's mother was suddenly furious, and said sternly to Shen Mengli: "Don't you listen to what I say as a mother?"
Shen Mengli lowered his head again, not knowing what to do, this tea was hot. Seeing this, Dongfang Xue immediately walked to the table and picked up a teacup, and then came to Shen Mengli and whispered to Shen Mengli: "I'm here......" After speaking, Dongfang Xue handed the teacup to Shen Mengli.
Shen Mengli slowly lifted the teapot in her hand, and then poured the hot tea into the teacup in Dongfang Xue's hand, although she was lowering her head, Dongfang Xue could still clearly see that she had already burst into tears......
The hot tea was held in his hand, Dongfang Xue did not use spiritual power to resist, he knew in his heart that if he used spiritual power, he would not be able to hide Shen's mother's eyes. Since we came here with sincerity this time, we should also be sincere in what we do. Simply Dongfang Xue endured the burning sensation in her hand, slowly retreated to the side, and waited quietly.
Shen Mengli returned to Shen's mother again, a pair of jade hands pinched the corners of his clothes, and he lowered his head and did not dare to raise it. Shen Mengli's tearful appearance couldn't hide the eyes of Shen Zhiyun and Bingling, the two of them were even more puzzled at the moment, and Shen Zhiyun guessed in his heart: Could it be that Brother Dongfang has anything to do with his sister......
Shen Zhiyun looked at the teacup in Dongfang Xue's hand, and was about to get up and want to say something, but saw Dongfang Xue suddenly smile at him, and was about to stand up, so he sat back on the chair.
Shen Mu looked at Dongfang Xue again, her eyes were like torches, slightly stern, looking at Dongfang Xue holding the teacup in both hands, both hands were already red and swollen at the moment, Shen Mu nodded with satisfaction and began to ask.
"What's your name, how old are you this year?" Shen Mu looked at Dongfang Xue and asked sternly.
Dongfang Xue held the teacup in both hands, looked at Shen's mother and replied: "The younger generation's surname is Dongfang, because he was born in the summer but it snowed heavily, so he has a single name and a snow character! ”
Shen Mu nodded, and then then asked, "I heard from the Digong that you are from the Eastern Regions?"
Dongfang Xue nodded, and replied, "Yes!"
"The Eastern Regions... ...... Eastern Regions" Shen Mu thought for a moment and frowned, then then asked, "There are five major sects in the Eastern Regions, which sect are you a disciple of?"
"There is no sect or faction for juniors!" Dongfang Xue replied immediately without the slightest hesitation.
"Isn't it a member of the five major sects?" Shen's mother's face suddenly became ugly, if you want to talk about the Eastern Regions, there are only five major sects with heads and faces, and there are still some qualifications, hearing that Dongfang Xue is not a child of the five major sects, Shen's mother's face can't be happy.
"So where is your home?" Shen Mu then asked.
Dongfang Xue bowed her head and bent over and did not get up, and then replied: "The younger generation has no home......"
"Mother's ......" Shen Mengli didn't want his mother to ask anymore, because Shen Mengli knew that Dongfang Xue's past was not an exaggeration to say that it was a nightmare for him, and Shen Mengli didn't want Dongfang Xue to recall his tragic memories again. Hearing Shen Mengli's voice, Shen's mother waved her hand at Shen Mengli and signaled Shen Mengli not to speak.
"You said you have no home?" Shen's mother turned cold, and then asked Dongfang Xue: "Then your father, where are your relatives now?"
Hearing Shen's mother's question, Dongfang Xue's lowered face was in a bitter trance, and after a while, she replied to Shen's mother and said: "The younger generation has been immortal since childhood, and the younger generation is now ......alone."
Hearing Dongfang Xue say this, Shen's mother's face changed significantly, and there was some pity in her eyes when she looked at Dongfang Xue, but it only returned to a stern color for a moment, and whispered to Dongfang Xue: "No family, no relatives, no family, no sect......"
"Mother......" Shen Mengli looked at Shen's mother who was in a trance, knelt in front of Shen's mother, and cried. Mother Shen touched Shen Mengli's hair and muttered, "Li'er, it's not that I don't want to, but this... How reassuring is that......"
