The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 299 What happened back then

After the banquet in Jiang Mansion, the rain stopped.

As soon as Li Lingjingshu and Li Lingjingshu returned to the palace, their mother-in-law came to greet them and happily replied: "Mrs. Sir, the third lady has given birth to a sister."

After hearing the news, Jing Shu quickly got out of the car and asked, "Is the third lady okay?"

"Anhao Anhao, mother and daughter are both safe, and my plump and white sister is very handsome." Mammy babbled.

Li Ling smiled and said: "This time our sister Bao has company."

Jing Shu turned back to Li Ling and said, "I'll go over and take a look first."

With that said, he raised his legs and walked towards Xianglin Garden.

After entering Xianglin Garden, the old lady, the eldest princess and Xu Wanning all arrived, and they were happily surrounding the third sister.

Seeing Jing Shu come in, Xu Wanning greeted with a smile: "Brothers and sisters, come and see how handsome this child is."

Jingshu walked up and looked at the infant third sister in the arms of the old lady, and then at Li Xiang who was sitting beside her, and said with a smile: "This child's features look like the third brother's."

The old lady looked at her grandson sitting beside her and said angrily: "What are you doing standing around here? Come in and accompany your wife."

After saying these cold words, the eldest princess resolutely withdrew her hand and walked away resolutely.

Tears once again blurred his eyes.

"A Yuan!"

Li Yu grabbed Aunt Zhou's hand and continued to ask: "Auntie, you are my mother's wet nurse and have always been with her. Now that I have grown up, can you tell me everything that happened back then?

?”

Li Yu closed his eyes, and his mind was full of the miserable appearance of his weak and pitiful mother before she died.

When she heard that Duke Zhen Guo had arrived, the eldest princess' originally smiling face immediately froze. She bowed slightly to the old lady and said lightly: "Mother, my wife is going back first." Then she turned and left the house.

The hands under Li Yuguang's sleeves were clenched into fists, and the thoughts tumbling in his heart surged again.

The only person in this house that Li Yu can truly trust is Aunt Zhou. She is her mother's wet nurse and the only relative left to him by her mother.

As soon as Li Xiang entered the inner room, a messenger from outside came in and said that Duke Zhen Guo had come to see his granddaughter.

Li Yu jumped up from the bed, stood on the ground and shouted at Aunt Zhou: "I can dream about my mother's tragic death every day, her blood is bleeding all over the floor, she is also my father's woman, and my father

Since you accepted her, why did you let her be forced to death just because that person was a noble princess? She is noble and inviolable, so my mother should die like a piece of grass? "

Now that he has gained fame and a decent job through his own efforts, he has the ability to stand on his own without relying on the government. But what can he do? Her mother will never come back.

Not coming anymore.

Li Yu grabbed Aunt Zhou's hand, frowned, and asked: "Auntie, every time I ask you these questions, you prevaricate me like this. Do you think that my father will take me back to the house and give us a mouthful?"

If you have enough food, are you really bribed by her and forget about your mother's death? How can you..."

Zhen Guogong stood there, looking at his wife's back as she left resolutely. He called out unwillingly, but he did not call back his wife's gaze.

"My child, only if mother dies today can I get a good future for you. After you enter the palace, you must work hard to make progress, so that mother's death is not in vain."

The boy didn't try to persuade him any more, but he helped Duke Zhen Guo and turned back.

The eldest princess, however, walked past Duke Zhen Guo with her head raised and a cold face, without even looking at him.

The old lady sighed slightly, shook her head silently, and murmured, "What a pair of enemies." Then she put down her great-granddaughter and sat aside calmly.

Only then did Duke Zhen Guo come back to his senses. He stood on the spot and coughed violently. After finally calming down, he waved his hand to the boy serving beside him and weakly ordered: "Let's go back first.

, I don’t feel well today, I’ll just come and see Brother Xiang’s child another day.”

God is so unfair. Some people are born with everything, but people like her mother just want to find a shelter for their children, and they have to pay for it with their lives.

Aunt Zhou sighed and said helplessly: "You kid, it's been more than ten years. Why do you keep asking me about this? Now that you have fame and the protection of the government, the future will be natural."

If you have a bright future, just put your mind on it and forget about the past."

Li Yu turned around and hugged Grandma Zhou, murmuring and asked: "Mammy, do you think that if my mother has a soul in heaven, would she also be resentful of her father?"

The eldest princess still raised her head half-raised and replied with a wooden face: "It's hard to stop the water. What else can we say between us?"

Over the years, although the people in this mansion truly regarded him as a relative, and Li Yu tried his best to convince himself to open up, but every time he saw his father or the eldest princess, the hatred in his heart would surge like a torrent.

surge up.

Before Li Yu finished speaking, Grandma Zhou raised her hand and gave him a slap in the face, saying sternly: "Shut up!"

"My lord, let's go in." The boy next to him tried to persuade.

As soon as the eldest princess left Xianglin Garden, she happened to meet the Duke of Zhen who was coming.

Li Xiang scratched his head and said to several people: "Grandma, mother, sister-in-law, please sit here for a while while I go in to see Pingyang."

At this moment, a young man dressed in white stood not far away, taking in the unbearable scene of this old couple who had been feuding for many years.

After hearing this, Aunt Zhou paused. She was speechless, she just sighed long and carefully helped Li Yu to the bed.

When the eldest princess heard this, she followed Jing Shu and looked at her son, smiling and saying, "That's right, this sister's eyebrows are exactly the same as Zhong Xuan's."

Every time he dreamed back at midnight, Li Yu could always dream of the tragic death of his miserable mother under the sword of the eldest princess. At that time, he was only five years old, crying and hugging her mother, and the blood that flowed out was dyed with blood.

His young body turned red.

Aunt Zhou wiped her tears and said sadly: "What happened back then is not your father's fault."

"A Yuan."

Zheng Guogong called out the eldest princess's name, with a hint of surprise in his tone.

Li Yu staggered back to Zhuxuan Pavilion carrying the wine jar. Seeing how drunk he was, Aunt Zhou quickly came over and took the wine from his hand, and said distressedly: "Okay, what's going on? What are you drinking?

Like this?"

"Why should I forget?"

Duke Zhen Guo turned around, grabbed her hand, and said anxiously: "Now that we are all full of children and grandchildren, you can't just listen to what I say calmly."

Li Yu was brought up by Aunt Zhou, and she loved and obeyed him. She was reluctant to say anything harsh, not to mention beating him. This was the first time that Li Yu saw his nanny so angry. He looked at Aunt Zhou in disbelief.

Mom, said in a slow tone: "Mom, now that I have grown up, why do you still hide these things from me?"

Aunt Zhou shed tears and turned her head away.

She felt guilty when she mentioned those old events.

She knew very well that the children she had raised over the years had been tortured because of what happened back then, but she had never had a moment of peace of conscience in all these years.
