Get out of your vicious mother's house, and make a fortune with your husband to become a prince

Chapter 227 Xia Xueqing is back

Seeing that the old lady cared about her, Xia Xuelian's eyes immediately turned red: "Grandma..."

She looked at Mrs. Wang as if she was a little uneasily. Originally, when Mrs. Wang heard the old lady say that she looked unwell and looked at Xia Xuelian, she noticed that Xia Xuelian looked at her with a little difference in her eyes.

Somewhat puzzled, he asked: "Lian'er, just say whatever you want to say."

Xia Xuelian wiped away a few tears and said with a choked voice: "Grandma, mother, my adoptive parents told me yesterday that they wanted to go back to Anyang City. I... I am a little reluctant... For so many years, they have been closer to me than their own daughter. Now they are going back to their hometown, and I can't take care of them in their old age."

The old lady was a little surprised. She had heard that the couple was enjoying their current life, so why did they want to return to Anyang City so suddenly?

Mrs. Wang immediately understood why Xia Xuelian looked at her differently just now. It turned out that she was afraid that she would mind her feelings for her adoptive parents. This child is truly a sentimental and righteous person.

"Lian'er, you are very reluctant to leave, so why not let your father and Xia Cheng go and talk to them, and let them live in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion with peace of mind. It won't be a problem to support two people in the mansion," the old lady said softly.

When Xia Xuelian heard this, she thought that was impossible. She had finally persuaded them to go back to Anyang.

Xia Xuelian said quickly: "Grandma, we can't make things difficult for them. They want to go back because they can't leave their homeland. What's more, their biological daughter is still in Anyang City. How can we bear to separate them from their flesh and blood for the rest of their lives?"

Mrs. Wang stood up, walked to Xia Xuelian, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears: "Lian'er is kind-hearted. You have deep feelings for them, which shows that they really treat you well. I am very grateful to them."

Turning to the old lady, he said, "Mother, we really can't force others to do anything. We have experienced the pain of separation from our own flesh and blood. How can we let our benefactor endure the pain of separation from her own flesh and blood for Lian'er!"

The old lady nodded and looked at Xia Xuelian with a kind look.

Xia Xuelian walked out of Zhufeng Courtyard with brisk steps. Before leaving, the old lady gave Xia Xuelian a silver note worth one thousand taels as compensation to Xia Cheng and his wife.

Mrs. Wang also gave Xia Xuelian five hundred taels of silver.

Xia Xuelian returned to Lotus Cottage and entered the room where Xia Cheng and his wife lived.

"This is five hundred taels of silver, which should be enough to buy a large house in Anyang City. This is cash, take it. Tomorrow the butler will arrange a carriage and guards to take you back to Anyang."

At this time, Xia Xuelian seemed more and more unfamiliar to the Xia couple, and she no longer had the dependence and affection she once had for them.

Early the next morning

Outside the side door, the carriage arranged by the housekeeper was already waiting for them. Xia Cheng and Liu got on the carriage reluctantly. Xia Xuelian looked at Liu in the carriage with red eyes.

The driver put away the footstool, jumped into the carriage, cracked the whip, and the carriage slowly drove towards the city gate.

The nanny and the maid Xiaoqing who followed behind Xia Xuelian looked at the carriage going away, then looked at Xia Xuelian's back who seemed very sad, and felt mixed emotions.

The nanny tugged at Xiaoqing's sleeve and pointed at Xia Xuelian's back with her chin. Xiaoqing stepped forward and held Xia Xuelian's arm: "Miss, Madam Xia has left. Don't be too sad. Go back and rest."

Xia Xuelian lowered her head and wiped her eyes again, then turned around and went back to the Lotus Cottage, but her steps were indeed very brisk.

On the way, the Xia couple secretly counted how much silver they had earned in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. They were really shocked by the calculation. There were more than 800 taels of silver.

After more than ten days, the two finally returned to Anyang City and moved directly into the guest room of Wenxiangju.

After the two of them settled down, they asked everyone to go and see the house.

Shilibao

After drinking the medicine, Xue Qing's high fever subsided. He woke up once and fell into a deep sleep again. Two days later, the pain on his face gradually got better. He weakly opened his eyes and looked around.

Jiang Yi, who was standing by, saw Xue wake up and hurried forward to ask, "Qing'er, Qing'er, are you awake?"

Xue Qing opened his big eyes and looked at Jiang Yi with a very unfamiliar look, which made Jiang Yi's heart skip a beat.

Xue Qing, still a little weak, slowly sat up, looked at the environment in front of her, got off the kang, and was about to put on her shoes. Jiang Yi quickly helped her put on her shoes.

Just as he was about to leave, Liu Shi came in and saw Xue was awake. He was very surprised and said, "Qing'er, you are awake. Go in and lie down."

When Xue Qing saw Liu, she was very emotional: "Mom, mom, I miss you so much, do you miss Qing'er?"

Liu could tell that Xue Qing was not right. This was not something Xue Qing would say: "This... Qing'er..."

He touched Xue Qing's forehead and confirmed that her fever had subsided. Then he pulled Xue Qing to the bed and let her rest.

Xue Qing held Liu's hand and said, "I'm finally out. Sister said she would find a way to get me out. I'm finally back. Where's Brother Yu?"

Liu looked at Xue Qing in front of her in surprise. She didn't expect that Xue Qing would return to his past self because of this illness.

Jiang Yi was even more shocked. He didn't expect Xue Qing to be really crazy from the fever!

Neither of them paid attention to the meaning of Xue Qing's words, and they were both immersed in shock.

Before Liu could say anything, Xue Qing looked very happy. Although his voice was still a little weak, he could not hide his joy: "Brother Yu"

Liu and Jiang Yi followed Xue Qing's gaze towards the door, only to see Wu Yu standing at the door staring at Xue Qing.

Liu pulled Jiang Yi outside. Jiang Yi didn't want to go out at first, but he couldn't resist Liu, so he followed her out of the west wing.

Wu Yu's eyes were all on Xue Qing at this moment. He walked slowly towards Xue Qing and touched her head as he did before.

Xue Qing took Wu Yu's hand and asked him to sit next to him.

"Qing'er, Brother Yu is not good. You shouldn't have pretended to faint yesterday. Otherwise, you wouldn't have caught a cold. It's all brother's fault!" Wu Yu said softly.

Xue Qing's eyes curved: "Don't blame Brother Yu"

Wu Yu looked at Xue Qing in front of him with doubts in his eyes, but when he saw Xue Qing now, a corner of his heart was filled.

Suddenly Xue Qing touched Wu Yu's right shoulder, his eyes full of worry: "Does it still hurt here? Qing'er will rub it for you."

Xue Qing's words made Wu Yu's pupils shrink suddenly. How did she know what he was doing?

Wu Yu held her hand tightly: "Qing'er, how did you know?"

Xue Qing tilted his head and thought for a while, still looking ahead in confusion: "I... I went to... a place where there were many, many people, and I saw you lying there, bleeding..."

As if she remembered the scene at that time, her face was full of fear and worry: "There is so much blood, Brother Yu, you must be in pain, right?"

Wu Yu was so shocked that he couldn't help but hold Xue Qing's hand even tighter.

Xue Qing cried out in pain: "Ah! Brother Yu, it hurts... it hurts"
