Chapter 91 91. Son

In front of the door of a small courtyard in Shuanggui Lane, Mrs. Shen took a disgusted look. There was a festive couplet on the door. It looked a little old. There were originally lush flowers and plants on both sides, but it was a pity that the weather was too cold. , shriveled by the cold, looking a little dilapidated.

The person living inside is the last person Shen wants to see in the world. If it weren't for her daughter, she wouldn't be willing to come here, Shen thought in her heart.

She covered her face with a handkerchief and winked at Mama Zheng next to her, who then knocked heavily on the door.

The courtyard door was in a state of disrepair, and the woman was so strong that she almost broke the door before a sound came from inside.

"I'm coming."

The vicissitudes of the old servant's voice sounded, and he trotted to the courtyard gate with a slight stoop.

When she opened the door, she saw Zheng's mother with her nose turned upward and her arrogant look. Her originally smiling expression suddenly changed color and turned ugly.

"What are you doing here?"

Mother Zheng is also a respectable mother-in-law in Qiongzhou. Who would dare to say no when serving Shen?

I was very angry when I came to Dongdu City. Now even this humble old servant dares to slap his nose in his face. How can he endure it?

"Bah, open your eyes wide and see who this is!"

He turned sideways to expose Mrs. Shen in front of others and looked at the old servant playfully.

His cloudy eyes narrowed to a slit at first, and after a closer look, he still asked with a bit of uncertainty and a little trembling.

"Are you madam?"

Mrs. Shen didn't want to talk to the old servant anymore, and looked at Zheng's mother. She pushed the old servant and said fiercely, "Why don't you ask him to pick him up? Our wife is here to see him."

"Hey, hey, old slave, go right now!"

The old servant's eyes suddenly showed happiness, and he shouted inside, "Old woman, old woman, call the young master out quickly." While greeting Mr. Shen's groveling smile, he looked like he was trying to please.

Seeing his expression, Shen's mood, which had been depressed for many days, felt relieved.

I followed him into the house and looked around for a while.

There are not many things in the house, but they are packed very neatly. The entire set of furniture is made of huanghuali, which is obviously valuable, but the style is a bit old and looks like it was more than ten years ago.

Shen stretched out her hand and tapped it, revealing a meaningful smile.

This charming woman really spends a lot of money.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a fat old woman walking in with a smile on her face, followed by a handsome young man.

He was about fourteen years old, wearing an azure cotton gown. He looked like an old scholar, which was incomparable with the brocade robes and fur suits of the young men in the north of the city.

He is not short in stature, but is a little thinner. His face looks a bit fair but lacks energy.

He looked at Shen with a solemn look, seemingly a little scared, hiding behind the old woman and not daring to come forward and salute.

The old servant on the side looked anxious and said quickly, "Brother Shan, please kneel down quickly. This is your mother. She is here to take you back to the Bai family."

Mrs. Shen glanced sideways at the old servant for a while. He really knew how to beat a snake and wrap it around a stick. When had she ever said this? It was so beautiful!

However, thinking of her own purpose, she did not directly expose the old servant's lies.

Putting on a fairly friendly expression, he waved to the boy, "Are you Brother Shan? We haven't seen each other for many years."

The old servant was very excited. He knew that the Bai family would never forget this child, and the third master would not forget their young lady.

He quickly walked over and pushed the child from behind to Mrs. Shen.

"Brother Shan, I have met...I have met my mother."

He couldn't even speak clearly. The old servant was so anxious that he hurriedly said to Mrs. Shen, "Madam, don't be surprised, the young master is so happy. He is not like this on weekdays, really!"

Mrs. Shen snorted coldly in her heart. If she could raise a son born of a bitch, she would be considered generous. This kind of appearance was what she wanted.

Even if the third master in the future thinks of bringing him back to the Bai family to recognize his ancestors, he will probably be disappointed after seeing this.

What about my son?

In front of Sihan, whom she raised quietly, she was not even worthy of carrying her shoes!

Thinking of this, I felt much better, and even the look in my eyes towards Brother Xiang Shan was more sincere.

"This year, when the old lady celebrates her birthday, we just rushed back from Qiongzhou. We have been gone for more than ten years, and you are already this old."

Mrs. Shen pretended to have a motherly expression, which made the old servant have tears in his eyes.

Brother Shan didn't know why, he just stared at her with a pair of round eyes. Ever since he could remember, he and the old couple who took care of him were the only ones at home.

I heard that his mother was once the famous Qiao Xiu Niang in Dongdu City, and she even embroidered handkerchiefs for nobles in the palace.

It's a pity that Tian was jealous of Hongyan and died of illness not long after giving birth to him.

Therefore, he has been raised in this small courtyard. I only heard from Qiao Bo that his father was a prominent man and had gone out to work as an official. He would come to pick him up when he grew up.

Unexpectedly, the wait lasted fourteen years. My father did not wait, but a "mother" came first.

"Mom, are you really here to take me home? Can I see my father?"

Although he was already a young man, his tone of voice was like that of a child of seven or eight years old. Shen was quite disdainful, but it didn't show on his face.

"Not yet. Your father is very busy these days and doesn't even have time to go back home, let alone come to see you. However, he asked me to bring a message, saying that after the new year, you can recognize your ancestor and return to the clan. "

"real!"

He still takes his mother's surname of Qiao, and he grew up without a father or mother. Although the people around him are all kind-hearted and enthusiastic people who don't talk about anything, he still longs for a family reunion in his little heart.

After hearing what Shen said, she almost jumped out of joy.

This time, the eyes that looked at Shen were full of excitement.

Mother Zheng couldn't help but show a trace of disdain when she saw it. The son of a bitch woman was also a bitch, and she thought about recognizing her ancestors all day long.

There are only two young ladies in the Bai family now, and the rest of them don't know the traces of this "young master" at all. If he really recognizes the Bai family, he will be held as a treasure in the palm of his hand.

When she thought of Ms. Qiao's pity, she felt sick and looked at Brother Shan with disgust.

Just for the sake of Madam's plan, I have to endure it for the time being.

"Yes, but you have to give me the heirloom that your mother left for you first. Your father said that he can use it now."

family heirloom!

The heirloom that Shen mentioned was a jade pendant left by Qiao Xiu's mother-in-law's ancestor.

It is green all over, exquisite and translucent, smooth and smooth, and has a slightly cool and refreshing feeling in your hand. It is valuable.

Bai Chaoke once told her when he was drunk that she didn't even think about it at that time. How could a person from a poor family and an embroiderer's background have such a treasure?

But I heard from him that the Qiao family was once a very wealthy family in the previous dynasty, but it was only with the passage of time and troubled times that they became what they are today.
