After the luck of rebirth was taken away, the true and false daughters teamed up

Yuan Daru didn't know what Ruyun's reaction would be when he saw him leaving quietly after waking up.

He couldn't imagine that when he returned home and saw Mrs. Yuan, he felt even more guilty. He would never dare to mention those things again.

After that, he didn't travel again for a long time.

He was afraid of meeting Ruyun and that his selfish behavior would be spread and his reputation would be ruined.

I can only pretend that nothing happened.

Until seven or eight years later, Yuan Daru was still thinking about Ruyun and wondered how Ruyun and Xiaolingdang were doing.

He hesitated, thought about it for a month, and made an excuse to Mrs. Yuan that he wanted to go on a study tour to see the mountains and rivers before leaving the capital.

However, when he returned to his original town, he realized that there had been a flood before, and the entire town was flooded, and many people died.

After the flood receded, many people still contracted the disease.

When Yuan Daru returned to the small town, an epidemic broke out and the whole town was in chaos.

The government even sealed off the town, prohibiting entry and exit.

Yuan Daru was a little worried about the situation of Ruyun and Xiaolingdang, so he took the risk and entered the town.

He was fully armed and searched for three days in the town. Finally, he found Xiaoling and Ruyun in a corner of a medical center.

When he found Xiaolingdang and Ruyun, Ruyun was already dead.

Only the little bell was left, and it was dying. It looked like it wouldn't last much longer.

Yuan Daru inquired about the situation and found out that his wife was poor and could not afford money for medical treatment.

Ruyun could only use the little money she had to buy two pairs of medicines for Xiao Lingdang, while she herself was consumed to death.

However, the two medicines had no effect at all.

The little bell is also in bad shape.

When Yuan Daru saw this, he was very heartbroken. He took out his money and bought medicine for Xiao Lingdang.

But still, there is no way to save the day.

The little bell only lived a few more days.

During those few days, she was often half asleep. When she woke up for the first time, when she saw Yuan Daru, she was a little curious, why did Yuan Daru want to save her?

Yuan Daru was silent for a long time and then admitted his identity to the child.

When Xiao Lingdang heard this, she just stared at him without saying a word.

Within a few days, the little bell was gone.

Looking at the child who died in front of him, Yuan Daru said in his heart that he was not sad, but that was a lie.

After he buried the child and Ruyun, he thought the matter was over.

He felt sorry for Ruyun and Xiaolingdang, and was unwilling to stay in that town any longer, so he hurried back to the capital early.

After returning to the capital, Yuan Daru fell ill.

"No wonder, no wonder..."

Mrs. Yuan was slumped on the ground beside the bed, her expression a little dull, and she said: "No wonder you fell ill as soon as you came back from outside, and no wonder you kept saying sorry and saying things like clouds when you were seriously ill... "

At that time, she thought that Yuan Daru fell ill because of the long journey. She probably thought that Mrs. Yuan was worried about her illness, so she said sorry.

And Ruyun is also the name of the town where Yuan Daru went...

She only thought that Yuan Daru was sick and confused and still remembered everything in Ruyun Town.

But I don’t want to think that this cloud is not that cloud.

When Uncle Yuan and others heard this, their faces turned red and white.

For a moment, I didn’t know what to say about Yuan Daru.

Only then did they realize that no wonder Yuan Daru had fallen ill since returning that time.

No wonder, after Yuan Daru recovered from his illness, he never left the capital again.

It turns out that everything is because of Yun Mu and her daughter.

They thought that Yuan Daru had noticed that Mrs. Yuan was alone and had little ability to take care of the housework and children. Or maybe because she was getting older, she wanted to stay in the capital to take care of her old age and entertain her grandchildren.

They thought about various possibilities, but they never thought that Yuan Daru was more timid because of his hometown feelings. He was not even willing to leave the capital for the sake of Ruyun Mu and his daughter.

Uncle Yuan had thought about it before, why Yuan Daru suddenly stopped going out despite being such a person who loved studying abroad.

The year before last, he also suggested that the whole family go to the Jiangnan water town to visit.

Yuan Daru did not object at that time. He only said that he wanted to go to them, but he would not go.At that time, Uncle Yuan only thought that Yuan Daru was too lazy to go out and felt that they were working too hard, so he said this out of complaint.

Now it seems that Yuan Daru's words at that time were not out of spite, but sincere.

He really didn't want to leave the capital, and he didn't want to stop others.

That's why I said that.

only……

I'm really sorry for Mrs. Yuan.

The eyes of Uncle Yuan and others couldn't help but fall on Mrs. Yuan.

Seeing the lost Mrs. Yuan, who was sitting on the ground beside the bed like a puppet, Yuan Daru looked quite guilty. He couldn't help but lower his head and did not dare to look at her. His voice was choked and trembling.

"sorry……"

I don’t know who these three words were spoken to.

Mrs. Yuan slowly raised her head to look at him, and gave a wry smile, "Master, are you sorry for me, or are you sorry for the mother and daughter?"

Yuan Daru choked, glanced at the small bell not far away, and lowered his head even more.

Don't dare to look at any of them.

Xiao Lingdang looked at Yuan Daru, but her eyes were full of resentment, "You lied to my mother, and you killed her! Do you know why she never left Ruyun Town?"

Yuan Daru curled up his fingers, as if he didn't dare to listen.

Little Lingdang ignored it and gritted her teeth: "That's because she firmly believes that you will come back!"

Yuan Daru's body trembled violently.

Little Lingdang stared at him, but her eyes gradually turned red, and her voice became choked, filled with hatred, but more of aggrievedness.

"My mother will be thinking about you until she dies——"

Little Lingdang has lost her father since she was born.

Ever since she could remember, her mother had been the only one around her. Many people in the town and village said that her father abandoned her mother and ran away. She was a loser who had a mother but no father.

Others say that her father abandoned her because of her bad mother.

Little Lingdang didn't understand why those people said that.

In her mind, mother is always the best.

Xiao Lingdang has been in poor health since she was a child. In order to take care of her, her mother worked hard and peeed every time to raise her.

She is never short of food and drink.

Once, Xiao Lingdang was so sick that she couldn't get up and her fever wouldn't go away. Her mother kept holding her and wiping her body with wine for three consecutive days and nights before her body temperature dropped.

Although she has not had a father since she was a child, she has always lived a happy life.

Ruyun is very capable, even if he is alone, he can take good care of Xiaoling.

However, the prejudice against women in this era is too strong.

Everyone felt that it was Ruyun's fault that made her husband abandon the two of them and run away.

Others said that it was because Ruyun gave birth to a girl. If she had given birth to a boy, Yuan Daru would definitely not have run away.

In addition, they are very repulsive, and women are often ostracized when they appear in public.

They wouldn't let Ruyun do any of the high-paying casual workers in the town.

Ruyun's embroidery is good, but the embroidery shop dislikes Ruyun's bad luck and is unwilling to accept her embroidery.

She could only work for some boudoir ladies and secretly do private work. Not to mention the low pay, it was also very tiring.

During the day, Ruyun also had to do odd jobs such as washing clothes, cleaning the courtyard, lighting fires, cooking, etc. for wealthy families to earn some wages and support Little Lingdang.

Even so, when Ruyun hugged Little Lingdang to sleep every day, she never complained about hardship or tiredness. She would tell Little Lingdang every day how talented and well-educated her father was, and what a good person he was.

Little Lingdang will also ask puzzledly, why did her father leave?
When Ruyun heard this, she would be stunned for a moment, then pat her back, and say in a light but firm voice: "Your father just went out to do business, he will come back, he will definitely come back."

Little Lingdang didn't understand at that time whether her mother was speaking to her or herself.

However, this sentence is like Ruyun's belief in living, and she has always kept this sentence in Ruyun Town.

Over the years, some people saw her as a woman with a daughter, living in difficulty, and wanted to introduce her to a man so that she could remarry.

But no matter how difficult life was, Ruyun never let go. No matter who brought it up, she wouldn't even think about it. Her first reaction was to shake her head and refuse. (End of chapter)
