MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 426 Ugly daughter-in-law meets parents-in-law
Ning Chuchu is an outsider and a woman. She knows how inconvenient it is to live in a Taoist temple.
There is a courtyard built with bamboo in the back hill of Xuanqingguan, where Ning Chuchu lives.
The emperor was worried that Ning Chuchu would leave without saying goodbye just like before if she knew he was coming to Xuanqing Temple, so he did not let anyone inform her.
Suppressing his excitement, the emperor walked quickly towards the back mountain.
Seeing a familiar figure sitting at the stone table from a distance, the emperor was so nervous that he even held his breath.
He didn’t lift his feet again until his chest felt tight and painful.
Back then, Ning Chuchu left without saying goodbye. He had too many things to ask her.
The emperor walked forward in three steps and then called out through a fence, "Chu Chu."
This call was made countless times by the emperor in his heart and in his dreams.
It doesn’t feel strange at all when I shout again after so many years.
But the emperor's voice contained excitement and urgency.
The woman sitting in the courtyard drinking tea was shocked.
The tea cup in his hand fell on the table with a clatter, and the tea spread all over the table.
But she ignored it.
Look back slowly.
Ning Chuchu’s eyes fell on the emperor’s face, shocked and surprised.
However, after a while, she looked away.
Fell on Ning Chuyi.
“Yier.”
Even after he was born, Ning Chuchu sent him back to Ning Guogong’s mansion, and he hadn’t seen him for so many years.
However, mother and son are close to each other, and she knows that this is her son without asking.
Besides, Ning Chuyi and the emperor were standing together, and their appearance was so similar.
Ning Chuchu's eyes fell firmly on Ning Chuyi, her eyes turned red, and she involuntarily stood up from the stone bench and walked towards him eagerly.
Ning Chuyi said nothing, pursed her lips, and cast complex eyes on the woman running towards him.
I don’t know whether Ning Chuchu was too excited to see her son, or whether she was too sad to see him not responding to her.
Or both.
Ning Chuchu walked to and stood in front of Ning Chuyi, glanced at him eagerly, cautiously called out "Yier", and suddenly fainted.
Ning Chuyi's face changed slightly, and she subconsciously reached out to help her.
However, the emperor was one step ahead of him.
“Chu Chu.”
Ever since seeing Ning Chuchu, the emperor's eyes have never left her. Originally, he was a little bit disgusted when he saw her wholeheartedly focused on Ning Chuyi.
Seeing that she suddenly fainted, he couldn't care about anything else and quickly reached out to hug her.
He turned around and shouted to Mr. An who was standing far away, "Go and ask Sun Yuanzheng to come over."
Eunuch An didn’t expect that he would faint as soon as he met Ning Chuchu and was shocked. He hurriedly left to invite Sun Yuanzheng.
The emperor held the man in his arms and shouted several times. Seeing that she didn't respond, he could only hold her and strode towards the bamboo house.
Ning Chuyi glanced at his back and slowly retracted his hand.
Before leaving the capital, he had never thought that his biological mother would be the aunt in Duke Ningguo's house who was rarely mentioned and who died early before she got married.
He heard the dispute between the emperor and Ning Guogong at the inn, and learned that his mother
My dear friend is Ning Chuchu.
He had many things to ask him.
I wanted to ask her why she gave birth to him, but she didn’t want to.
I want to ask her why she has never come back to see me in all these years.
Why was his life experience not informed?
Let him suffer all the cold treatment from Ningguo's wife, as well as all kinds of criticism from the world about his illegitimate son.
…
There are many, many things he wants to ask.
But seeing her faint now, he suddenly didn't want to ask anything. The emperor carried Ning Chuchu into the house. Eunuch An went to invite Sun Yuanzheng and he still hadn't come back.
The other Custodes are not here either.
It’s very quiet in the backyard.
Ling Chu stood by silently and sighed slightly in his heart when he saw Ning Chuyi's face was tense all the time.
She didn’t know what happened between Ning Chuchu and the emperor back then.
But she must have had a hard time these past few years.
Ning Chuchu has a stunning appearance, but her complexion is very bad, and there is a deep "Sichuan" pattern between her eyebrows.
This is the result of years of frowning, which shows that she must be depressed for a long time and rarely happy.
As a girl, she will definitely be criticized by the world if she gets pregnant out of wedlock.
Even if she hid it, not many people knew. But after she gave birth to Ning Chuyi, she sent him back to Ning Guogong's mansion.
Mother and son have not seen each other for twenty years, and they are in a state of sadness and pain. You don’t need to think about it to know that it is uncomfortable.
But Ning Chuyi's life was no easier than hers, not to mention Mrs. Ning Guo's neglect of him for many years.
The rumors that the emperor had an illegitimate son also caused him to be criticized a lot.
Thanks to his perseverance, he did not become cynical under the ridicule of others.
Lingchu knew that Ning Chuyi must be in a complicated mood at the moment, but she didn't say anything to comfort her.
She just pulled him into the yard and asked him to sit down on the stone bench where Ning Chuchu was sitting before.
She sat down on the other side, then reached out and poured two cups of tea, handed one cup to him, and took one herself.
Sitting silently with him, waiting for Sun Yuanzheng to come over to see Ning Chuchu.
Ning Chuyi never spoke, but he knew that she was afraid that he would be sad and deliberately stayed with him.
After reaching out to take the teacup, Ning Chuyi raised his eyes to look at Ling Chu and said slowly, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Ling Chu was a little surprised to see him adjusting his mood so quickly.
But when I think about it, I’m not surprised. Regardless of his life experience or his iron-blooded methods while on duty in Jinyiwei, there are many people who look at him openly or covertly.
If he didn't have extraordinary self-control, how could he withstand the rumors.
Sun Yuanzheng came very quickly. Knowing the importance of Ning Chuchu in the emperor's heart, Eunuch An invited him over as quickly as possible.
After checking Ning Chuchu’s pulse, Sun Yuanzheng looked very unhappy.
He did not hide Ning Chuchu’s situation and told the emperor directly.
Ning Chuchu has run out of oil and her lamp has dried up, and she has less than two months left to live.
Even if he exhausted all his lifelong learning, he could only let her live for three or two months longer at most.
The emperor looked sad.
Ning Chuyi's face didn't look good either. Even though Ning Chuchu gave birth to him, he sent him back to Duke Ning's mansion.
But she is his biological mother after all, and mother and child are connected. How could he feel when he learned that she was not going to die soon.
Ning Chuchu's condition required more rest, and Sun Yuanzheng originally planned to let her continue to sleep.
But Ning Chuchuxu woke up with Ning Chuyi in mind.
After opening her eyes, Ning Chuchu did not look at the emperor, but looked at Ning Chuyi with excitement.
Ling Chu knew that they must have a lot to say, so she did not stay in the room and quietly left.
As soon as he walked into the yard, he saw Sun Yuanzheng coming out with a medicine box.
Lingchu was very tired and actually wanted to go back to the Taoist temple to rest. But she was called here by the emperor, and he didn't say anything, so she couldn't leave.
Sun Yuanzheng was also worried that if something happened to Ning Chuchu again, the emperor would send someone to find him again, so he simply stayed.
So the two of them sat down at the stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting.
I don’t know how long it took, but Eunuch An suddenly came to send a message, saying that Ning Chuchu wanted to see her.
I don’t know what the three people were talking about in the room, but Ning Chuchu was all smiles when she saw her.
He took off the bracelet he was wearing and put it into her hand without saying a word.
The scrutinizing eyes made Ling Chu feel like an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law.
