Killer Pretty Queen

Chapter 267 Mother's Worries

Huangfu Haotian could see the suspicion in Xiao Li's eyes, so he put down the silk bag: "Not all the rich men and women come for their clothes. After the death of my mother and concubine, I was not favored. During those years when I was often bullied, I cooked by myself. , and even got scolded by some little maids and eunuchs."

"You... Did you live so hard at that time?" Xiao Li couldn't believe what Huangfu Haotian said, but many years had passed.

Huangfu Haotian smiled and didn't say anything, he just kept those experiences in his heart, how could he be able to express clearly the pain that those years of suffering brought to him.

"Don't think about it, go to sleep. You didn't sleep well last night."

The next morning, when Xiao Li woke up, she saw a glass of warm pear honey water beside her bed.They haven't been at home for many years, so this habit is still remembered by them, and there is a burst of warmth in their hearts.

The warm honey water slid down the throat and into the stomach, Xiao Li felt warm for a while.

After washing up, just as Xiao Li left the room, she saw Qin Jian coming with a plate, the Suolou fruit she had seen in the palace earlier, light phoenix flower tea, and special snacks.

"Let's eat something before going there." Qin Jian said, seeing Xiao Li's ecstasy, he couldn't help laughing.

This kind of breakfast... definitely wasn't prepared by the servants at home.

"Oh, my princess, your life is so good that the whole family is envious. I am drooling watching the breakfast that the prince wakes up early in the morning for you!" Qin Jian's expression was very excited.

But Huangfu Haotian's behavior didn't make Xiao Li feel so excited, it was probably just a momentary impulse, Xiao Li didn't believe how long Huangfu Haotian could accept such a plain and simple life.

Huangfu Haotian came out from the side hall and looked at Xiao Li with strange eyes.

"Ali, hurry up and eat. I'll take you out for a walk after dinner. I greeted the general today, so you don't need to go there."

"Where are you going?" Xiao Li looked at him curiously.

"Don't ask, it's a place where you want to know the result."

Sitting on Huangfu Haotian's carriage, Xiao Li was full of doubts, where did Huangfu Haotian want to go.

The carriage that Huangfu Haotian specially transferred from the Prince's Mansion went further and further away, slowly deviated from the main road and began to walk towards the quiet path.

Xiao Li couldn't help feeling nervous, where is he taking her!

Could it be that he was too busy fighting with Aunt Liu these days and was too indifferent to him, so he wanted to drag himself to a place where there was no one to face Fa-rectification on the spot.Xiao Li kept muttering in her heart, she felt that she was getting farther and farther away from the familiar capital, and her heart became more and more uneasy.

"Haotian... Where are you taking me?" Xiao Li swallowed, feeling that she would be swallowed alive by Huangfu Haotian in the next second.

Huangfu Haotian stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiao Li's hair with the handle of the car: "What are you afraid of, leave everything to me, I'm here!"

This passage is so familiar, but what emerged in Xiao Li's mind was the scene of a naked man lying on her body.

Oh my god, what was going on in my mind, Xiao Li's face flushed red.

It's okay, it's okay, Huangfu Haotian was still focused on looking out of the window and didn't notice her.

Huangfu Haotian kept looking out the window of the carriage, walked for a while, and finally ordered the driver to stop when he reached a secluded place.

"Here we are." Huangfu Haotian said.

"Where is this place?" Xiao Li asked.

"You'll know in a while." Huangfu Haotian took Xiao Li for another walk, and finally saw a clean but simple hut at the corner of the hillside.

"Go in." Huangfu Haotian looked at Xiao Li and said quietly.

Xiao Li was a little strange, but Huangfu Haotian would not harm her, so Xiao Li walked forward with confidence.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, he saw an old man in plain clothes sitting beside the bed.

Xiao Li paused, tears almost fell from her eyes.

"Mm...mother, mother." Xiao Li's eyes became hot, and after realizing it, she quickly threw herself on Mrs. Xiao.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao also burst into tears, she hugged Xiao Li and didn't know what to say.

Huangfu Haotian was standing outside, hearing the soft weeping in the room, but he had mixed feelings in his heart.

When I was wronged before, I never had such an opportunity, mother, mother...that is such a distant word.

Huangfu Haotian's heart was a little blocked, and when he heard Xiao Li's cry, his heartstrings were pulled even more.

After the two of them stopped crying, Huangfu Haotian walked into the room.

"A Li, it's done." Mrs. Xiao wiped away Xiao Li's tears carefully, while looking up at Huangfu Haotian. "Thanks to His Royal Highness, I was able to meet my Ari today."

Only then did Xiao Li glance at Huangfu Haotian gratefully, seeing the strange look in his eyes, she thought of his life experience in her heart, and couldn't help feeling sad.

"Mrs. Xiao, you don't have to be polite. A Li and I are husband and wife. These things should happen."

"His Royal Highness treats Ah Li well, I can see clearly."

"Mother, why don't you go home? Why don't you go back when you're already in the capital?" Xiao Li saw that the two of them didn't see each other, and her mother must have kept nothing from Huangfu Haotian, so she asked.

Mrs. Xiao had already returned to the outskirts of the capital, but she kept holding her breath and refused to go home, but she missed Xiao Li and her husband, but she still dared not take that step because of her emotions.

"A Li, you also know what mother is thinking. Your father and I have known each other for so many years, even though I understand him in my heart, but it came so suddenly, I really need time to accept it."

Of course Xiao Li understood that to ask her mother to accept such a woman and child, no matter how generous she was, she couldn't pretend that nothing happened.

Others, Xiao Li, might say that they are definitely used to the common sense of having three wives and four concubines, but her mother has been with her father for so many years, and even Xiao Li feels that her mother's thinking is ahead of her time, no different from the thinking of modern people.

It is inevitable that it will be difficult for her to share her husband with others so readily.

"I'm angry with your father, but I still don't feel relieved, Ari, how are your father and elder brother doing during this time?"

"It's all good, but the mother is not at home, and the house is not like a home after being made a fuss by Aunt Liu. Father feels ashamed of their mother and daughter, so he has not paid much attention to it, but I can see it. Those two people don't have good intentions at all." Xiao Li said angrily, while pulling Mrs. Xiao's hand.

Mrs. Xiao affectionately pulled the hair around Xiao Li's ear.

Huangfu Haotian has always been very kind to A Li, and he will not disappoint his expectations. The general's health is okay, so it is reasonable for those two people to come here feeling dissatisfied and want to get back their previous compensation.

"A Li has grown up, and it's time to learn to deal with some things. I think that during this time, several shops have been well managed by A Li, so I feel relieved."

When Xiao Li heard her mother say this, she immediately became a little anxious.

What do you mean by that? Don't you come home anymore?

"Mother..." Xiao Li hurriedly shouted.

"A Li, you are no longer the wayward little girl you were back then. Now you are the Great General Protecting the Country, the Crown Princess, and the future mistress of Da Ling. You have to be careful along the way..."
