My old husband who can read minds

Chapter 243 Mother and Daughter Meet
In May, the grass is luxuriant, and the peonies at Longfu Temple are in beautiful bloom, attracting waves of tourists.

On this day, several official women came to Longfu Temple. The first one was Mrs. Shen from the House of the Minister of Household Affairs, and a pair of wives and concubines of Mr. Shen, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Qiao. Accompanying them was the eldest young master of the Shen family. Shen Ting and Shen Third Young Master Shen Mu.

Third Young Master Shen is discussing marriage recently, and the female members of the Shen family are dressed up today just for him to see the woman.

The other official family's women were the female relatives of the Qian family of the Minister of Civil Affairs' residence. The leading ladies were Dou, the wife of the Minister, and her sister-in-law, Wang.Behind them were two beautiful girls of sixteen or seventeen, who were two young ladies of the Qian family who were of suitable age for marriage.

The second lady of the Qian family, who is taller, thinner and gentler, is the direct descendant of the Dou family; the other, with lively and pretty features, is the third young lady of the Qian family, who is the direct descendant of the Wang family.

Accompanying him were the eldest young master and the fourth young master of the Qian family, both of whom were also handsome young men.

The two sisters of the Qian family each have their own merits, but today it is the second girl Qian from the eldest family member Dou that Mrs. Shen and Mr. Wang admire each other.

Although Shen Mu was born as a commoner, he was determined to achieve his goals and became a Jinshi in his twenties. He could be said to be young and promising.

Mr. Qian, the Minister of Civil Affairs, took a fancy to his talent and character, so he wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law.

The Qian and Shen families pretended to "encounter" by chance at Longfu Temple, and then found an excuse to let the young people have fun on their own. In fact, they were creating opportunities for Shen Mu and Qian to get along.

If two people look at each other, the marriage will be inseparable afterwards.

Rich families rarely marry blindly. While they pay attention to being well-matched, they will also ask for their children's wishes. Unless they really dislike the child, they will generally follow the arrangements of the elders in the family and marry the person they like.

Brothers Shen Ting and Shen Mu took several young ladies from the Qian family to the back hill of Longfu Temple to enjoy the flowers, while the two elders sat in the side room drinking tea and chatting.

A young novice accidentally spilled tea on Aunt Qiao's dress while pouring tea. She had to leave the table temporarily and took her maid with her to another vacant wing to change into clean clothes.

The young novice who led the way said that there were guests in several nearby rooms, so he took Aunt Qiao to a relatively remote room. When entering the room, the young novice secretly slipped her a note.

Aunt Qiao opened it with confusion, but after seeing the contents of the note, her eyes widened instantly and she almost fainted with excitement.

The note in her hand was almost juiced by the writing, and Aunt Qiao was able to calm down her mood, pretending to be nonchalant, and ordered the two maids to change her clothes.

Then he pretended to be dizzy and wanted to rest, sent the two maids outside the door, closed the door secretly, and then quietly slipped away through another corner door reserved for the novice monk.

The little novice who led the way was already waiting for her outside the door. When he saw Aunt Qiao appearing, he made a "silence" gesture towards her.The two of them tiptoed, avoiding the eyes and ears of everyone in the temple, and arrived at a small, quiet courtyard.

"Donor Qiao, please go in, someone is waiting for you." After leaving the message, the little novice monk turned and left.

Aunt Qiao swallowed nervously and pushed open the door in front of her with trembling hands.

Sitting at the square table in the middle was a woman wearing a jasper gauze skirt. She was very slim and had a quiet temperament.

However, her face was covered with a layer of white gauze, making it difficult to see her true face. There was a flesh-red scar on her exposed forehead and corners of her eyes, which completely destroyed her beauty.

Aunt Qiao stared blankly for a while, then turned around and closed the door. She couldn't hide her excitement and asked: "Girl, is this the note you left for me? Is it true that my daughter is still alive?"

Shen Wei stared at his biological mother who was so close, couldn't help but burst into tears, and shouted with a choked voice: "Auntie, it's me, your Wei'er is back."

Aunt Qiao felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Although the voice of the woman in front of her sounded much hoarse than her own daughter's, the familiar tone and the look in her eyes were exactly the same as hers.

"Wei'er, is it really you?" Aunt Qiao couldn't believe it, covering her mouth and trying her best to hide her cries.

Shen Wei took off her veil, revealing a face that was ruined beyond recognition, and said with a tearful smile, "Auntie, Wei'er is still here. Long time no see, are you okay?"

Even though Shen Wei's face was completely disfigured, how could a mother not recognize the child she had raised by herself?Looking at her daughter's distorted and ugly face, Aunt Qiao was so miserable that she stepped forward and hugged Shen Wei tightly, lying on her shoulder and crying bitterly.

"My Wei'er, you have suffered. Who on earth harmed you like this? Is it the damned King Qi and Princess Qi? My poor Wei'er..."

Aunt Qiao couldn't help crying while holding her lost daughter. Shen Wei patted her biological mother's back to comfort her, and she also shed tears silently.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried for a long time before they gradually calmed down and calmed down to talk.

"Weier, what is going on? Didn't I say you were burned to death in the fire? Since you are still alive, why didn't you come back to the Shen family to find us? Where have you been in the past few years?"

Aunt Qiao really had too many doubts in her heart, and she asked distressedly while holding her daughter's hand that was no longer smooth.

"It's a long story. It's just that things are urgent today. My daughter can only keep the story short. My aunt just listens."

Shen Wei explained the rhetoric that Aunt Hua taught her before. Aunt Qiao listened very seriously and did not doubt her daughter's words at all.
