Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 954 Mother, let's never see each other again
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the 29th year of Changle, the heavy snow fell in the middle of Beijing.

In front of the small courtyard of the Clan Mansion, Xiao Shuhua clenched her hands at a loss, with obvious embarrassment and uneasiness in her eyes.

——The Xiao Mansion has gradually declined since the death of Mrs. Xiao, and now Xiao Yuande (Xiao Hongze's father) is still a modest official in the court, but after all, it is not as prosperous as it used to be .

And she, without the support of the Xiao family and the protection of the Duke's Mansion, she is no longer the eldest lady of the Xiao Mansion who came out of all kinds of pets.

"Xiao... Ma'am, right?" The soldier guarding the small courtyard looked at the warrant, looked up and down the woman with sideways eyes, and put away the weapon in his hand after a while, "Okay, there is nothing wrong with the warrant. You go in."

"Hey, okay, okay, thank you Bing Ye." Xiao Shuhua nodded in response, with a slight joy on her face, she lifted her skirt and was about to step through the door, but the soldier suddenly reached out to stop her.

"Wait, Mrs. Xiao, before you go in, we have to make this clear." The soldier pointed to a small sundial standing in the yard as he said, "It is said that the grandmother can't get in." Come to this mansion."

"You can come here today because of the kindness of our third lady. Thinking that the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is a day of reunion, I can't bear to see you separated from the mother and daughter inside, so I specifically asked His Majesty to come here." Thanks to grace, I allow you to go in and have a look."

"But you have to remember, you only have one hour - after one hour, no matter whether you have finished talking with that person, you have to leave the clan mansion immediately."

"Otherwise, we won't be able to explain to our superiors here—don't force the little ones to be violent."

"Yes, yes, Lord Bing, don't worry, I understand." The woman nodded vigorously, and the gatekeeper saw that she seemed to have remembered it seriously, so he didn't stop her anymore, and let her hurry towards the courtyard.

Three inches of snow had accumulated in the courtyard that had not yet been swept away by someone, and when one stepped on it, the cold pierced through the soles of the feet. Xiao Shuhua pulled the cloak on her body, and the anxiety hidden in her pupils became even more unreasonable—calculate carefully After she was abandoned by Mu Wenhua, she hadn't seen Yan'er for two years.

I don't know if the child is doing well now.

Thinking about it, the woman tightened the cloak in her hand more and more, the small hall of Youshenjian was already close in front of her eyes, Xiao Shuhua pursed her mouth when she saw this, and carefully opened the heavy cotton curtain.

At that time, Mu Shiyan was guarding the stove, playing with the tea knife that Mu Xici had sent to her a few days ago. The gilded silver handle was embedded with two simple and elegant nephrite jade. He raised his eyes and softly called "Mother" to the woman.

"Yan'er?" The woman who stood still was taken aback by her thin and haggard appearance. She pointed to Mu Shiyan's thin bones that could not be concealed under her fox fur, and her voice trembled when she spoke. "You... When did you get sick like this?"

"Is it strange? Mother." Mu Shiyan smiled softly, seemingly indifferently, "Since the miscarriage last year, my daughter's body has been getting worse day by day."

"Miscarriage? Why did you have a miscarriage?" Xiao Shuhua stared in astonishment. When she was in the Xiao Mansion earlier, she only vaguely heard that Princess Nan'an seemed to be pregnant, but whether she was pregnant or not, and whether the child had been taken She was born safely, but she didn't know it.

"Because the prince wants to marry Chen's daughter, and that woman doesn't want someone else to give birth to the prince's child." Mu Shiyan lowered her eyes, "So the prince ordered Shi Ya to abort my child with medicine."

"The daughter has also left the root of the disease since then."

"Look, mother—" Mu Shiyan burst into laughter as she spoke, and Xiao Shuhua saw that her eyes were quickly clouded with mist, "You are also in the capital, and you don't even know when your daughter had a miscarriage." .”

"You really never loved your daughter."

Mu Shiyan held the corner of her lips stiffly, and Xiao Shuhua waved her hands in a panic when she saw this: "No, no, Yan'er, listen to Wei Niang's explanation, why Wei Niang..."

"Stop talking, mother." Mu Shiyan closed her eyes, and forcibly interrupted the woman's unfinished sentence—she followed her and walked for 16 years according to the track she set for her. It was the first time to speak to her in such a strong tone.

"When I was three years old, my daughter saw that the windmill my cousin made to amuse my third sister was beautiful, so I asked my cousin to make one for my daughter. On the day I got the toy, my daughter happily showed it to you, but you beat it hard. He trampled it, broke it, pressed it into the ground, and said it was something only those bastards would play with."

"You said that the cousin who made the windmill for my daughter had malicious intentions. You said that she deliberately lured me into depravity and coaxed my daughter into not seeking to make progress."

"Daughter believed it, and never dared to go to Liuxia Garden again."

"When I was five years old, my cousin went hunting with his uncle in autumn, and when he came back, he gave his daughter a snow-white rabbit."

"Daughter hugged the rabbit so excitedly that she didn't close her eyes all night. She lit the oil lamp and made a rabbit nest with the maid overnight. But the next day you broke the rabbit's limbs and skinned it alive in front of her. After cutting it into several sections, I told my daughter that this is called the jungle, and if my daughter can't get ahead, she will end up just like this rabbit."

"My daughter also believed it, so she desperately went to learn the lessons left by the masters."

"But mother, my daughter is just an ordinary person, my daughter is not as smart as my big sister—"

"My daughter can't memorize those scriptures. When you get angry, you will punish her to copy them. The child's hand can't hold the pen holder, and the words are crooked and ugly. You will tear up the whole page..."

"After copying, my daughter's hands were trembling. Daddy felt distressed when he saw it, and wanted to let her take a rest, but she didn't dare to rest when she remembered what you said. He saw that her daughter was in trouble, and said that he would bear all the consequences. Let her Let go and go play in the yard."

"If I remember correctly, after that time, you will never let your father intervene in your daughter's schoolwork." Mu Shiyan let out a sad laugh, and tears slipped down her clothes.

"There are also the snacks that Aunt Ruan secretly steamed for my daughter when she was six years old, and the small wooden sword that my uncle gave my daughter when I was eight years old... My uncle always said at that time that as a daughter of the Mu family, even if she doesn't know how to practice martial arts, she still has to see it." You understand sword power, but you always scoff at him as nonsense."

"Later, you snatched the snacks and fed them to the dog, and you stuffed the wooden sword into the stove in the back kitchen and set it on fire."

"Since you were three years old, you have been telling your daughter that it was Mrs. Wen who took the position of Mrs. Duke of your country, and that it was the elder sister and the third younger sister who took the honor and glory of your daughter..."

"Day after day, year after year, you taught your daughter how to resent and hate, and you told her day after day, year after year, to climb high and fight for face..."

"Actually, at the very beginning, my daughter liked Big Sister very much. At the beginning, my daughter didn't hate Aunt Ruan either."

"At that time, everything around was well-intentioned, but you forced your daughter to cut off all her back roads bit by bit."

"—Daughter used to think that it doesn't matter if she is not accepted by her uncle and the others, and it doesn't matter if she is not liked by her father. Anyway, as long as you love me, that's enough."

"Daughter, as long as you really love me, that's enough."

"But after the Lantern Festival that year, when you slapped your daughter on the face without hesitation, she suddenly realized that you never seemed to love me."

"You don't love me." Mu Shiyan repeated.

"So, mother."

"After all these years, do you regard me as your daughter, or do you simply regard me as a tool that can be used to take revenge on Mu's family and uncle, and to satisfy your sad and ridiculous unwillingness?"

"No, Yan'er, no—" Xiao Shuhua, who had been talking about it for many years, shook her head hastily, her pupils trembled, and she spoke incoherently.

"That's enough, mother." Mu Shiyan raised her voice again and cut her off. She looked up at the embarrassed and flustered woman in front of her with an unprecedented seriousness.

"My daughter has done enough for your daughter in this life."

"So, mother—"

"From now on, let's never see each other again."
