After Dawn Chapter 56: Daughter and Poor Wife (End)
"I only hate that my concubine is blind, and I mistaken the wolf heart for the man's heart..."
Du Silang looked at the woman's dead eyes and sat down on the ground in fright.
"Siyuan, this is a kite I made, do you like it?"
"Siyuan, look, the child is kicking me."
"Siyuan, you go to the exam, I will arrange it at home, you can rest assured."
"Siyuan..."
Countless memories surged in his mind, as clear as yesterday. Liu Qingran's tender face when she was sixteen years old, the gentle smile on her face when she was carrying her child with a big belly, the scene where she was packing for him under the oil lamp while she was leaving home and turning her head to persuade him to feel at ease...
"No, no, no—"
……
General Zhenbei's daughter was hit and killed on the pillar of the Golden Palace for Mingzhi's sake. General Liu Lao passed out because of the excitement.
The folks discussed these gossip from the palace with great interest. General Liu Lao in the palace woke up and heard that his daughter had gone and handed in his resignation with a face ashes. She stayed, and led her daughter's coffin out of the palace gate quietly and silently without appealing for grievances or calling out Qu Ping.
Just a head full of black hair, almost instantly dyed with countless frost.
I heard that in the afternoon, General Liu Lao packed up his luggage and planned to take his wife to the south of the Yangtze River to find a place with beautiful scenery and settle down.
"This is the little tiger you asked me to make for you when you were three years old." Mrs. Liu took out a little tiger-like doll from the cabinet and said with a smile.
Qing Ran held her hand and nodded, "I also made a little tiger for Shuang'er, but I didn't bring it when I left it at home. It's exactly the same as what you made, mother."
"That's because our mother and daughter are connected." Mrs. Liu said with a smile.
"Yeah!" She exclaimed, as if remembering something, and took out a rattan box from the closet, "I forgot, after you left, I made you four seasons clothes every year, just I'm waiting for you to come back to wear it someday, and I don't know if I make it fit."
Qing Ran's eyes were a little wet, she stretched out her hand and pressed the corner of her eye with a handkerchief, so as not to let Mrs. Liu see: "Mother's craftsmanship is first-class, it will definitely fit."
"Come and try, it's all your favorite colors."
Qing Ran obediently took the clothes handed over by Mrs. Liu and changed them behind the screen. Although she had given birth to two children, Liu Qingran's waist did not change much, she was still as slender as a girl, but With a bulging chest, I think Mrs. Liu also considered her growth according to her body, and she wore it very well.
"Mother, does it look good?" It's been a long time since I've worn such delicate clothes, and Qing Ran subconsciously felt a little unaccustomed. She tugged at the hem of her clothes slightly, and asked shyly with her lips pressed together.
Mrs. Liu turned her head, tears falling all at once.
"Mother, the sister's dress at the flower viewing banquet is so beautiful, you can make me one."
"Mother, do you think this dress looks good?"
"Mother, look, the skirt will bloom when you turn it up!"
The young girl's green voice sounded in her ears, and Mrs. Liu recovered from Qingran's voice and looked at her with tears in her eyes: "Of course, turn around and let me see."
Looking at her expression, Qingran knew that she was trapped in memories. Although Liu Qingran had had a hard time in these years, her body shape and appearance had not changed much from when she was a young girl. Because she has no intention of dressing up all the year round, and her clothes are simple, she did not show her beauty.
People rely on clothes and horses on the saddle, and when Qingran wears it like this, she vividly restores a Liu Qingran seven years ago in front of Mrs. Liu.
She obediently turned a few circles, and the skirt naturally spread out like a blooming lotus flower. With the pendants on her clothes, the woman was as beautiful as a beautiful flower.
"Alright alright..." Mrs. Liu said repeatedly, and Liu Qinghan, who was standing outside the door, raised her lips slightly when she saw the scene inside the house.
His sister, finally returned.
On the other side, Mr. Liu, who was sitting in the hall, had a stern face, as if no strangers should approach him.
"Are you your mother's father?" Du Wushuang asked curiously.
"Go away," Mr. Liu said angrily, "where's the little **** from."
Du Wuxia tugged at Du Wushuang with a timid expression on his face, pulling Du Wushuang away.
Du Wushuang didn't feel scared, but came over again: "Are you the mother's father?"
"What mother's father?" Mr. Liu blew his beard and stared, "I want to call Grandpa!"
"Grandpa!" Du Wushuang shouted sweetly, ran over to hug his leg, "hum hum hum" and climbed up like a tree.
"There are no rules and no gaps." Mr. Liu said with his beard up, but he reached out and hugged him in his arms, "Skin monkey."
Du Wushuang on the side also saw that this was a paper tiger, with a shallow smile on his face, and sweetly called: "Grandpa."
……
Beside the official road, several carriages lined up neatly.
"Mom and Dad, Ran Ran, when you arrive in Jinzhou, I will arrange for someone to change the carriage for you. When the time comes, you and your group will travel lightly and head straight to the grassland. I have already contacted my grandfather, and he will send someone to pick you up from the city." /
"Han'er, you have to be careful when you are alone in the capital." Mr. Liu said, with tears in his eyes.
"Dad, don't you believe in my ability? I dare to stay, there must be my reasons."
"Han'er, remember to come to us when you're done."
"Mother, I will definitely come. When you settle down, write to me. I will write to you every month."
"Brother..." Qing Ran hesitated, but Liu Qinghan seemed to have read her mind, reaching out and rubbing her head.
"The woman was abandoned by her lover and suffered from an incurable disease. I have promised to take care of her family. This may be the best outcome for her."
"Of course, you don't need to worry," he said with a smile, "and don't feel guilty, I'm not staying in Beijing entirely because of you."
"The news from Ning Yuan shows that Princess Pearl has been in turmoil in the country. Even without you, I will send my parents away and fight with her."
The carriage squeaked away in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the dust raised by the wheels gradually subsided. Liu Qinghan looked at the far-going motorcade from a high place until they disappeared beyond the distant horizon.
Qing Ran lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the man standing on the viewing pavilion in the distance until he couldn't see him.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Du Wuxia asked with concern, seeing her frowning tightly.
Qing Ran shook her head and said with a smile, "Mother is fine, just a little motion sickness."
"I'm dizzy too." Du Wushuang, who was sitting on the side, fell on Qingran's body. Qingran and Du Wuxia smiled at each other. She poked Du Wushuang's round cheeks lovingly.
"Mother, you can go to sleep, just rest for a while." Du Wuxia advised.
"Xia'er, it's very tiring to ride the carriage, let's rest together."
The three of them leaned against each other and fell into a deep sleep amid the turbulence of the carriage.
Liu Qinghan, who was about to turn around and go back, turned her head sharply and stretched out her hand into the void. There seemed to be a vague figure of a woman in the distance.
His lips parted slightly and he called out a name.
"Ran Ran..."
……
Because Liu Qinghan discovered Hao Mingzhu's abnormality in advance, he took extra precautions when dealing with Hao Mingzhu. The Sky Devouring System discovered Liu Qinghan's identity and arranged for Hao Mingzhu to approach him, but Liu Qinghan found him. The high-ranking man was captured and destroyed together with Hao Mingzhu.
Liu Qingran, who lived on the grassland, quickly regained her innocent and lively nature. Perhaps because Mrs. Liu grew up on the grassland since she was a child, she and her two children were very comfortable with living in the grassland. Life on the grasslands, riding horses and hunting all day long, is a very pleasant life.
Although she has two children, Liu Qingran is still the most popular woman on the grassland. Every day, countless warriors bring their prey to her tent, and Mrs. Liu just smiles every time. Accept it, in the grasslands, it is a very proud thing that my daughter is popular.
In the end, the husband Liu Qingran chose was Hu Zi, who followed their family to the grassland. The two became husband and wife in the third year of their arrival in the grassland, and gave birth to several children.
Liu Qinghan put aside the affairs of the capital and came to the grassland, it was the second year after Liu Qingran and Hu Zi got married.
He refused the request of the two elders of the Liu family to talk to him. After living in the grassland for a few days, he left again on a horse, saying he was going to see the scenery outside.
Both Du Wuxia and Du Wushuang were changed to Liu's surname, so that there is no need to worry that the incense of the Liu family will not be inherited. Because Du Siyuan is the biological father of Liu Wushuang and Liu Wuxia, Liu Qinghan saved his life. The only chance for him to see two children in the rest of his life was when Du Wushuang, who brought his wife and children home, passed him begging on a horse.
At this time, his sanity was already insane, and when he saw a two- or three-year-old child, he rushed forward and said that he was the unparalleled one in his family.
Liu Wushuang passed in front of him, but he recognized him and smiled sarcastically. The Liu family did not deliberately hide from the two children, including the fact that they were not born to Hu Zi, he knew deeply What a selfish person my father is.
"Wu Shuang, what are you looking at?" asked the sweet wife in his arms. She is a lady from the Jiangnan water town, and she just married him despite her parents' opposition.
"I didn't see anything." He lowered his head and said with a smile, "I just saw a figure that felt familiar, like an old friend."
"Who is your old friend?"
"An old friend who has some grudges, but has now disappeared."
She didn't understand, she just subtly changed the subject, "How long will it take to get to the grassland?"
"Don't panic, there is still a small half month of effort."
"My mother is very good at all kinds of food, and I will definitely call you this little greedy cat to be happy."
"Do you think I'm fat?" she asked, grabbing the soft flesh around his waist.
"No, my lady is just right," he apologized. "My mother strictly ordered me not to find a Yangzhou thin horse. If you are too thin, I will not dare to take you home."
"That's right..."
A ride for two people, a long shadow falls behind them, and they drift away in the setting sun.
