Chapter 723: The Cause of Departure
"What?
"That's right!" Shan Feng nodded in confirmation.
"Your mother is your father's younger sister and your master's apprentice. In the eyes of his old man, only she is qualified to be the wife that your father is marrying, so he strongly opposes this marriage. even said in front of many people that if your father dares to disobey his will and marry Xiaowan, he will not recognize your father as an apprentice!"
"Huh, is that serious?"
After hearing this, Nangong Qing was surprised.
After thinking about it, he suddenly turned around and said a jaw-dropping sentence at Nangong Equator:
"Dad, after a long time, it turns out that you and my mother are twisted melons?"
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Chi's face changed suddenly:
"How do you speak? Your mother and I are sincere! Only, only...... That's later! You are not allowed to talk nonsense, do you hear?"
Seeing that his father was really angry, Nangong Qing quickly stuck out his tongue and diverted the topic:
"Okay, okay, I won't say it. What about then? Aunt Xiaowan, isn't it very sad?"
"Well, she didn't tell me, but I knew she must be very upset. And during that time, Dad has been working with your master, hoping that he can fulfill us and no longer be embarrassed, but he has never been able to make sense. The marriage was thus delayed. ”
It stands to reason that Nangong Qing and Yujun Wan have never met, and this person is still her mother's rival, so she should hate it. But after hearing about this woman's situation, Nangong Qing's eyes were full of sympathy:
"Alas, I gave up my sect and happily came to get married, but this is the result...... Aunt Xiaowan is really pitiful. And what about later?"
After a long sigh, I heard Nangong Chi say regretfully:
"And then ...... As you know, she stayed in the pie for a while, and then went down the mountain with the peak. ”
"Huh, that's it?"
"Yes! I didn't even say hello, and I said goodbye. ”
After telling his daughter about this sad past, Nangong Chi looked at the mountain again, his mood was not as angry as he was at the beginning, and he only said with a little complaint:
"Shanfeng, I know you hate me! I really didn't handle Xiao Wan's matter well. But you're just walking away, it's too ruthless, isn't it? And you took the bracelet and the sword, do you want to take revenge on me?"
Seeing that Nangong Chi complained about himself again, Shanfeng immediately responded with a sharp gaze:
"Nangong Chi, are you embarrassed to say that I am ruthless? If it weren't for the good deeds you did, how could we say goodbye!"
"What do you mean? Do you mean the marriage contract? I didn't explain it, I was very ...... at the time."
"I'm not talking about this!" Soon, I heard Shanfeng interrupt on the spot:
"Xiaowan and I are not blind, we know that you are also very passive in this matter. But you, you...... You know that your marriage is blocked, why do you want to talk to Xiaowan and her...... What did that make her pregnant? You, you...... Isn't that a jerk?"
After more than twenty years of revisiting this matter, Shan Feng was still angry when he talked about it, and the whole person stood up from his seat, pointed at Nangong Chi and scolded angrily.
After hearing the word "pregnant", everyone in the audience widened their eyes, obviously they didn't know anything about it.
Even Nangong Chi himself had an unbelievable face, with both surprise and guilt in his eyes, and he froze in place with his mouth open, unable to say a word after a long time......
"Alas, when Xiao Wan told me she was pregnant, I really wanted to rush over and kill you bastard. Even if I die with you, I am willing! Xiao Wan forced her to die and refused to let me go, alas. Later, I told her, "It's okay not to trouble you, but now that we have children, we can't delay it any longer, and this marriage must be concluded as soon as possible!" According to my intentions, I will make this matter public the next day, and see how your master can stop this marriage!"
But when he said this, he heard Shanfeng sigh again, and his tone was full of pain and helplessness. After a few seconds, he continued:
"But Xiaowan, she has a very good temperament, and at this moment, she is still thinking about you! What she says will be bad for your reputation once people know about it. In addition, she is also worried that this matter will lead to a deterioration of the relationship between you and your master, or even a breakup. In this way, it will definitely affect your career...... And so on and so forth. Anyway, it's all kinds of worries, and I'm annoyed to death when I hear it. ”
"Then what happened later, Uncle Shan, has it been announced?" Seeing that Shanfeng didn't say the result for a long time, Nangong Qing asked anxiously.
"Of course not! If you really want to, how can you still be?"
After glancing at Nangong Qing angrily, he listened to Shanfeng continue to speak:
In the end, Xiaowan decided not to tell anyone and planned to leave secretly. As a senior brother, although I didn't approve of her approach, but seeing that Xiaowan had made up her mind, I could only accompany her to leave Nangong Gate overnight and find a place to live in seclusion. As for the bracelet and sword......"
Now that they have said this, the mountain peak has nothing to hide, so he also said the reason for taking away the bracelet and sword:
"The bracelet and openwork sword was actually not taken by me, it was taken by Xiao Wan secretly from the Treasure Pavilion with your father's jade pendant. That's what I learned after I went down the mountain. As for the reason, although she never told me, how could I not guess it? First of all, she wanted to hide people's eyes and ears and make people mistakenly think that Xiaowan and I were here to steal treasures, so that no one would delve into the reason for our departure, and no one would find out the secret of her pregnancy; second, she wanted to make Nangong Chi hate her and forget her in this way, so as to let go of her previous feelings; as for the third point, ......
Speaking of this, I saw that the mountain peak turned his head and glanced at the mountains and rivers meaningfully, and then continued:
Third, she also hopes that her son can return to Nangongmen in the future and find his biological father, and the bracelet and sword are the best proof of this. In the final analysis, Xiaowan is still thinking about you and your descendants in the end. Nangong Chi, to tell you the truth, I really hate you and envy you, if Xiao Wan can do this to me, even if she dies thousands of times, I will be willing!"
Before hearing about this, Nangong Chi didn't feel how much he owed Xiao Wan.
Because as Shanfeng said, Xiao Wan's refusal to say goodbye and take away the bracelet and sword really made him very dissatisfied.
So, even if I apologized, I was later covered up by confusion and hatred.
But today, after hearing the ins and outs of this matter, Nangong Chi couldn't hold back any longer.
A woman was already greatly wronged, and then she became pregnant.
But she neither chose to ask for help, nor did she come to force her, but in order to protect the man's reputation and future, she took the initiative to become a wicked person and withdrew from this dispute.
Thinking of that sad scene, although it has been many years, Nangong Chi's heart still has a deep sense of guilt and self-blame.
The hands on the chair also trembled, and although they couldn't hear the crying, two lines of guilty tears had flowed down the corners of their eyes......
"Xiao Wan...... Where is she now?"
After more than half a minute, Nangong Chi gradually calmed down, wiped away her tears and asked about Xiao Wan's current situation for the first time.
"Well, I don't know. ”
Shanfeng recalled with a touch of sadness:
"After descending the mountain, we first found a farm to live in. After half a year, Xiaowan gave birth to a son. But before she even got out of confinement, she left suddenly, and no one knew where she went. After that, although I looked for her for more than ten years, I never saw her again. ”
Hearing the news of Xiao Wan's disappearance, everyone showed regret, shaking their heads and sighing.
But Shanhe was the only one who was suspicious, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't help but ask again:
"Aunt Xiaowan is gone, what about her child? Master, did you leave him behind? But I don't remember seeing other boys when I was a child!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience laughed dumbly, and they all threw strange glances at the mountains and rivers, and finally Nangong Qing said a word:
"Oh yes, you're stupid! That boy is you!"
