162. Bandit Emperor (8) (1/2)
Mo Da went out happily and came back in panic.
The poor girl couldn't bear the fright when she saw him rushing to her in an emotional state, and fainted directly. Although part of the reason was due to not eating for two days and being weak, it still frightened Mo Da severely. Jump.
I heard before that Ya'er was so frightened when she saw Hou Er that she wouldn't let him get close to him. He and his brothers also laughed at Hou Er for being so cruel and actually scared his own daughter. As a result, it was his turn to do this. Not to mention the feeling in my heart.
He carried his biological daughter all the way back to the government. The military doctor came to see her and diagnosed her with starvation.
The gangster and Sister-in-law Song did not dare to follow, and stayed outside the official residence, refusing to enter. Sister-in-law Song was worried about her daughter, while the gangster was cautious by nature and worried about the two of them.
Wei Mingyan was writing a letter. He had just asked someone to send it out when he saw Mo Da coming in. He immediately raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You just came to me and told me that you would definitely come to me to ask for some good medicinal materials. Sure enough, you came." ”
"Ziyu holds the key to the warehouse where the medicinal materials are kept. You can go find him."
"grown ups."
Mo Dahanhan smiled, with both joy and worry in his eyes. This look always made Wei Mingyan couldn't help but laugh at him.
"What's going on? Aren't all the children back?"
"Brothers have been finding their own children these days, but no one is like you."
"No, it's not..."
Mo Da felt embarrassed immediately after being told that.
After all, the situation of his family was different from other families. All the children in the village were taken away. Most of the boys were sold to other families as slaves, and the girls were sold to Hualou.
These days, relying on the list left by Master Jin, they have indeed recovered the children one after another. Some of these children have endured hardships and some have been tortured, but they have all returned to their parents well.
His Xuan Niang was different.
Ya'er recalled that Xuan Niang was crying on the road and wanted to find her father. Later, when she arrived in the city, she annoyed Ren Ya Zi before she was sent to the flower house. Just as she wanted to establish her authority again, she acted in front of all of them. They met and beat Xuan Niang severely.
Xuan Niang was too young and was beaten to the point of dying. After staying in the car for less than a moment, she became motionless. They cried together and couldn't get a response when they touched her. They all thought that Xuan Niang was dead.
Later, the man Yazi threw the person directly from the carriage. What happened next was found out by the locals after getting the news from Ya'er.
"Xuan Niang's current adoptive mother regards her as a treasure. Although she doesn't have much money, she has raised Xuan Niang well."
Mo Da grimaced, feeling happy but not knowing what to do, "Now Xuan Niang is afraid of me, and I want to take her home, but her adoptive mother raised Xuan Niang. I look at her, I don’t really want to leave Xuan Niang.”
Wei Mingyan stood up and said, "You don't have any female relatives in your house, so just take your daughter back. Her adoptive mother is young and not suitable."
"yes!"
Mo Da sighed, "Sir, please give me an idea."
"Let me ask you." Wei Ming said, "You took Xuan Niang back, do you have time to spend with her?"
The big and thick man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head unwillingly, "I still want to follow you to achieve great things together, so I don't have much time to spend with Xuan Niang."
He also understood what Wei Mingyan meant, and although he was reluctant to give up, he still said, "Then Xuan Niang, will you continue to follow her as your foster mother?"
"You must follow, but in a different way."
Wei Mingyan picked up the things bought from the table, picked out a jade hairpin from a pile of beautiful and expensive hairpins, and handed it to Mo Da.
Looking at the hosta in front of him, Mo Dasha took it blankly, "Sir?"
"What is this for?"
"You have just found your daughter, and you don't want to give her any gifts. She hasn't seen you in seven years, and she is still young. If you don't please her, she won't get close to you."
As soon as Wei Mingyan finished speaking, Mo Da suddenly realized, "Thank you, sir. Sir, I will go find my daughter right now."
"etc."
A handsome man wearing a pure white fox fur coat stopped him, "In a moment, you do this..."
***
In the gorgeously decorated bedroom, the girl had huddled in the corner and looked at everything around her in fear since she woke up. Even if the maid came up and asked warmly if she wanted to eat, she still remained silent.
"Miss, please eat as much as you can. The doctor said that you are starving and it is the time when you need to replenish your body."
The maid persuaded her, and the girl huddled in the corner of the bed looked inside with red eyes, and whispered, "I want my mother, where have you done my mother?"
Several maids looked at each other. They were all original maids in this mansion, and now they were sent here by the owner of the mansion along with the house and people. Although they were very skilled in serving people, they had a dark eye on the current situation.
They only knew that the person in front of them was the daughter of the owner of the mansion, but why she was like this and why she kept asking for a mother, they had no idea.
Seeing that they didn't answer, Song Liu'er hugged herself tightly, her eyes full of fear.
Although she is ten years old, she has been frail since she was a child and has always stayed at home to learn needlework or help her mother do things. She has almost no contact with strangers. She is also afraid of meeting people and is even more timid than Widow Song.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a tall and strong man he had never seen before and said he was his father. There were so many maids around to take care of him. Maybe others would be a little happy, but for Song Liu'er who grew up dependent on her mother. , which is very terrifying.
She gritted her teeth and tensed up and stopped talking.
"Liu'er, Liu'er..."
Widow Song saw her daughter like this as soon as she entered the door. She called her name and hurried to the bedside.
Song Liu'er, who had been resisting shrinking into a ball, burst into tears immediately after seeing her, and rushed into her arms rolling and crawling.
"mother!!"
"Liu'er, mother Liu'er..."
Mo Da stood outside the door, watching the two hugging each other while crying and laughing. He felt happy for his daughter and sad at the same time.
"What? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Hou Er patted his shoulder and said, "Don't feel bad. It's good to be alive."
Mo Da also smiled, stretched out his sleeves to wipe the corners of his eyes, and sighed, "Yes, it's good to be alive."
"In the future, you will have an extra girl, which is good. I used to think that second brother, you don't like to find women to serve you, and you don't care about the family. How will you take care of Liu'er when you come back? Now it's better, with Bai Duo It would be great if a girl came out to take care of you."
Hou Er's words made Mo Da's discomfort completely disappear. He nodded, "Yes, that's good."
"Okay, let's go. The adults are also going home to pick up their relatives and asked us to go with them."
Mo Da responded and left with Hou Er. Before leaving, he couldn't help but look back and saw the pretty girl nestled obediently in Widow Song's arms.
She was very weak and her face was pale, but she was alive.
Live, as long as you live.
Mo Da looked at his daughter and smiled with satisfaction. In this life, he wanted nothing more.
****
In the capital city, there are bare tree trunks standing in the narrow courtyard. The servants passing by pass by in a hurry without even bothering to take a look.
"Is the eldest lady's illness not cured yet?"
"I don't think it's going to work anymore. I haven't recovered since I came back from worshiping Buddha with my wife. I heard that I almost couldn't return to Kyoto, but it was my wife's kindness that she brought him back."
"I haven't taken less medicine. Why can't I get better from this disease? Wasn't the eldest lady in good health before?"
"Yes, the eldest lady has not left the courtyard since she came back. Last time I saw the maid in her courtyard secretly fawning over the eldest maid in the madam's house, saying she wanted to find a way out for herself."
"I saw all the maids in the eldest lady's yard were hiding together and lazing around, leaving all the work to the newcomer. If the eldest lady wasn't soft-tempered and sick, she wouldn't be so arrogant."
A few little maids were hiding and gossiping when they suddenly saw a girl wearing the same dark red maid clothes coming up the path, and they immediately shut up.
The girl didn't seem to notice them, and continued to move forward with the basket in her hand. Several maids looked at her back and whispered, "Did you see, it's her? She was bullied to such an extent that she even lost her food." Let her go to the kitchen to pick it up."
"It's so pitiful that you have such a master as the eldest lady."
"She's okay. The nanny beside the eldest lady used to be a bitter one. Let me tell you..."
Qing Ziru carried the basket and walked lightly in front. When she heard these words, her face turned slightly sideways and her eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
She entered this desolate little courtyard, and the little maid who was supposed to be cleaning had long since disappeared. She seemed to be lazing around somewhere.
Qing Ziru had long been used to the bad family tradition of the Ji family. She knocked on the door and whispered, "Miss, it's me."
Ji Xiawan's weak voice came from inside, "Come in."
Qing Ziru entered the door, placed the basket on the table, took out the food bit by bit, and after placing it, walked to the curtain and helped Ji Xiawan, who was pale, up.
"Ziru..."
Ji Xiawan covered her chest and coughed lightly, her beautiful eyebrows knitted together in discomfort, and asked weakly, "Did the people in the kitchen give you a hard time today?"
"The kitchen is very busy today and you have no time to pay attention to me."
Qing Ziru replied, carefully taking out a handkerchief and wiping the sweat from Ji Xiawan's forehead, "Miss, how about I hire a female doctor? How long will it take for you to get better if you endure it like this?"
"No, don't go."
Ji Xiawan braced herself and tried to stand up, "As long as the people in the kitchen don't make it difficult for you, just sit down and eat with me."
Seeing Qing Ziru opening her mouth to refuse, she smiled bitterly and said, "You are the person next to me, and the people in charge will not look down upon you. When you go back, there will be no food left for you. Eat with me." Well, I’ll have enough to eat at least.”
Qing Ziru responded and helped her sit down.
She was indeed being embarrassed by the manager, but she had already taken revenge by putting a sack on him and beating him severely while he was out doing shopping.
It was not only revenge on the manager for deliberately making things difficult, but also revenge on him for not taking Ji Xiawan seriously.
If Qing Ziru was sent here by the adults at first, she only protected Ji Xiawan because she was grateful to the adults, then after two months of getting along, she has sincerely protected Ji Xiawan.
Ever since something happened in her family, she escaped from Beijing with her brother and settled in Miaocheng. She encountered so many ugliness along the way, and she wanted to protect Ji Xiawan's pure kindness even more.
"Miss, this is a soup to replenish your body. Please drink some of it."
Ji Xiawan looked at the bowl of broth with a pale face, shook her head, covered her chest to suppress her nausea, "I can't drink it, you can drink it."
Recently, she was feeling tired and tired, and because she was afraid of her stepmother, she didn't dare to drink those medicines. Now she was trapped in the yard with no way out.
The former maid next to her begged her to redeem herself, saying that her parents wanted her to go back and serve her. Ji Xiawan didn't know what she was thinking. She just saw herself as the eldest lady trapped in the yard every day, and there was no way out with her.
Ji Xiawan was at the worst of her illness at that time and had no energy to argue with her. Seeing that the money she gave was enough, she let her go.
Even if a maid whose heart is no longer with her, a young lady, is forced to stay by her side, depending on her situation at the time, she is still causing trouble for herself.
At that time, she was trapped in this small courtyard by her stepmother in the name of recovering from illness. There was no one she could trust around her, and her younger brother was assigned to another place by her father. Ji Xiawan was isolated and helpless. She could only support her body and cheer up to face it on her own every day. .
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Ziru to come to her side.
"Ahem..."
Ji Xiawan coughed a few times and suddenly felt dizzy. She couldn't help lowering her head and retching.
"Miss."
Ziru hurriedly stepped forward and patted her back, then hurriedly poured water for Ji Xiawan, "Miss, let's invite a doctor."
"No, we can't ask a doctor..."
Ji Xiawan's white fingers gripped the table so hard that they turned white.
Ziru didn't understand why she refused to ask the doctor. Before she came, the master gave her some money and sent his trusted aides to accompany him. Ziru was in the open, and everyone else hid in the dark.
Although it seems that she has no status in this mansion and is unable to move forward, in fact, as long as she wants to, it is not difficult at all to bring a doctor to the mansion quietly.
But Miss Ji, who has always been smart, would rather hold on than call the doctor.
Ji Xiawan retched a few more times and lay on the table in discomfort, trying to catch her breath.
When she was young, her mother always took her out to attend various gatherings. Although she was young, she could always hear a lot of news when she followed her.
The adults just thought that the child didn't understand and didn't take it seriously at all. Little did they know that when Ji Xiawan was thrown into the countryside at such a young age and had no one to teach her, she spent her days and nights recalling what her elders had said. If you pass it, you can use it to gradually transform yourself into the lady you should be.
It was very painful to do this, but she was already suffering, so she couldn't let herself fall into an even worse situation. At least, she had to grow up to be what her mother wanted.
The communication between ladies, in addition to various etiquette, is about their husbands and children.
Ji Xiawan once saw a newly pregnant lady who couldn't eat meat and was retching just from the smell. Her appearance was exactly the same as her current situation.
She might be pregnant with that man's child.
After realizing this, Ji Xiawan lay in the curtain, feeling cold all over, gritting her teeth and refusing to let herself cry.
After her innocence was insulted, she could hide it and pretend that nothing happened, but how could she hide it when she had a child in her belly.
She knew that the child was very fragile in the belly. She often heard that a wife accidentally had a miscarriage. As long as she slipped, the blood would flow out and the child would be gone.
Ji Xiawan also wanted to do this. She wanted to hide the child, but she thought about it all day long, but she still didn't do it. At night, she had a dream.
She dreamed of a crying baby, and her eyes turned to blood bit by bit.
Ji Xiawan woke up screaming and burst into tears in the arms of Ziru who came over after hearing the sound.
She is not old, but she has also imagined the future.
Who will she marry in the future, whether she will have a child, whether it will be a girl or a boy, and how she will educate her.
But now, the future she had been looking forward to appeared in front of her in such an unacceptable appearance.
Ji Xiawan knew that she should kill the child while he was still young and before anyone discovered him.
But she couldn't do it.
It was unfortunate that the child was born in her belly. If she killed him, he would not be able to be reborn.
In her midnight dream, in addition to dreaming about her children, she sometimes also dreamed about that day when the man sent her back and said he wanted to marry her.
Even though she knew it was impossible, Ji Xiawan, pregnant with that man's child, hoped that he could really come.
Even if he is poor and has no fame, as long as he comes and marries her, the child will not have to die.
Ji Xiawan started copying Buddhist scriptures. She originally copied Buddhist scriptures to calm her mind, but she couldn't calm down at all.
She once saw a child in a woman's belly and her brother was in her mother's belly when she was only three years old. Her mother grabbed her little hand and put it on her belly, letting her touch her round belly.
"Wan'er, you're going to be a sister soon, aren't you happy?"
Ji Xiawan even remembered that she thought at that time that she should protect her mother and not let her get hurt.
My mother also copied Buddhist scriptures at that time. She said that when she copied Buddhist scriptures, she would pray to the Buddha to bless the child in her belly to be safe and give birth smoothly.
Ji Xiawan copied the Buddhist scriptures, but what she wanted was to hope that the child would be reborn in a good pregnancy and not be reborn in the womb of a cowardly mother like her.
What she wanted most was to be like a mother.
But now that she has become a mother, she can't protect him, and she wants to hurt him...
Ziru packed her things and came back, looking worriedly at the pretty but pale girl standing in front of the table copying Buddhist scriptures. She didn't cry, but she looked more uncomfortable than crying.
what happened……
Before, Miss Ji Mingming was not like this.
Although he was in a bad mood, he had been pretending to be sick to deceive the new wife, secretly pouring medicine out of the window, and even teaching Master Ji his homework when he came.
But now, her whole body seemed to be crushed.
But obviously, she has always been by Miss Ji's side.
Ziru was worried, and felt that Ji Xiawan might not be able to think about this situation. After thinking about it, she put a harmless tranquilizer in Ji Xiawan's bowl that night, watched her eat it and fell asleep, and then hurriedly took advantage of the situation. Ye Hei climbed over the wall and left the house.
Not long after, Ziru quietly opened the back door and entered the house, carrying a blindfolded female doctor.
The female doctor was stuffed a large sum of money and blindfolded. She was told not to speak, so she kept walking silently. When one of her hands was stuffed, she felt her pulse for a while, nodded, and was taken away again. go out.
After the blindfold was removed from her eyes, she looked at the anxious-looking girl in front of her and quickly replied, "The lady is fine, she's just pregnant, and she's uneasy, so she's a little weak. I Just take some medicine and you'll be fine within a short time."
Pregnant...
Ziru's eyes widened.
Miss Ji has been depressed and melancholy these days. Could it be that she guessed that she is pregnant?
A woman is pregnant out of wedlock. If someone discovers this...
Qing Ziru hurriedly sent the female doctor away. After returning, she carefully tucked Ji Xiawan into bed and quickly wrote a letter and sent it off.
The Lord told her that she wanted to conquer the world, and Ming Yuan was marrying Miss Ji.
But now that she has her children, the woman is ten months pregnant and can’t wait.
***
Wei Mingyan had no idea that his future prince had been discovered. There were many people in their group. Although they all chose cavalry, because their village was far away from the main city of Yunzhou, they set off in the middle of the afternoon and walked until night Just arrived.
Sitting on the horse, I looked at the village in my memory from a distance. It was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.
The heroic man on the horse showed expectation in his eyes, and there was also a hint of homespun timidity.
Hou Er beside him smiled and asked, "Sir, it's rare to see you like this."
"I haven't been back for so many years, and I don't know if my sister is married or if my mother is in good health."
Wei Mingyan looked a little remorseful, "Before, I was afraid that things would go wrong and my relatives would be harmed, but now that I think about it, I should have picked them up as soon as possible."
"It's not too late now. The old lady and young lady will definitely be happy to see you, Sir."
The heroic man immediately smiled and said, "Hurry up, I can't wait any longer!"
He walked at the front, "Drive!!"
This group of well-dressed soldiers entered the village path.
In the village, the woman who was kicked out was crying with her mother.
