Chapter 289 Dressing for Mother

"Well, the prince gave me an hour to get things done." Man Xiu explained.

"Oh, that's it?"

"Yes."

Ye Zilian went to the table, opened the gift box, and looked at it, but was really surprised. Man Xiu was so surprised to see Ye Zilian, and he didn't feel that he came forward. When he looked at it, he was also stunned.

"Ah! Isn't this your slave contract? On it, there is also the seal of Li Qinglin, the prince of Xixia. He said that this is a gift to Lord Ye. Does that mean that he gave you to Brother Ye? After saying her explanation, Xue'er almost cried and gave it to Ye Zilian. Not to mention the identity of Man Xiu, the only son of the Su family, the amnesty of the world alone was enough to get rid of the shackles. Great, that's great!

"Wait, there is still a letter here."

When Ye Zilian took out the letter, everyone's hearts came to their throats. As soon as Li Shiling asked them if they had discussed it, it could be seen that the other party was not just a gift.

"What is written on it?" As soon as Ye Zilian opened the letter, Xue'er asked eagerly.

After reading the letter, I saw Ye Zilian's serious face, which made Xueer's heart more anxious, "What on earth did you write? What does he want us to prepare? Shouldn't be..." Xue'er wanted to say that it was not to send Qin Manxiu, but she wanted Aunt Meng's life to go. After all, Manxiu was not Qin Wei's biological son. Even if she took her to Xixia to pay tribute to the princess, it was meaningless, and she defiled his princess's grave in vain. But Aunt Meng is different. She is Qin Wei's only wife. She can exchange her for the meaningless cultivation of Prince Li.

"Yes, big brother, what does the letter say?" Ye Ziqi saw that Zilian's expression was a little abnormal, and he couldn't help asking curiously.

"Here, the letter is here. You can read it yourself." With that, Ye Zilian handed the letter to his younger brother Ziqi. Ye Ziqi took the letter doubtily. After reading it, he frowned and said to Man Xiu, "You are really not reassuring."

The expression and reaction of the Ye brothers cast a shadow on everyone's hearts. It seems that what Prince Li asked for? Although he can do it, will he pay a relatively large price?

"What on earth is written? Two big men are so hesitant to read a letter!" Cher couldn't help grabbing the letter from Ye Ziqi's hand and read, "The characters are all here, here it is. The country of etiquette is still reciprocal. This time, in Western Xia, the sacrifice of the deceased concubine will not be completed, and it will be sacrificed to Qin Wei.

"What? This Prince Li is too much. Uncle Qin has passed away for so many years, and he doesn't even know that he even asked us to give Uncle Qin to pay tribute to his deceased concubine?

"Hey, be careful what you say! What does it mean to go too much? Qin Wei killed my aunt. Isn't it right to use him to pay tribute? As soon as Shi Ling heard that her uncle was not good, she couldn't help but refute it. But when I said it, I felt something was wrong. Qin Wei, isn't he Qin Manxiu's father? Thinking about it, he quickly looked at Qin Manxiu.

I didn't think that Man Xiu had a light face, as if he was still smiling. Sacrifice is not necessarily a living person or a dead body.

"Haha!" Just as Man Xiu said this, Ye Zilian couldn't help pretending to be serious and laughed.

"Brother Ye... Are you all right? At this time, can you still laugh?" Ye Zilian's smile really stunned Xue'er, but when she looked at Manxiu again, she also had a strong smile. What's going on? Sacrifice is not necessarily a living person or a dead body. What does it mean? Then Prince Li asked Qin Wei to pay tribute to his princess, without living people or dead bodies, then...

"Haha! Miss Li, please be sure to thank the prince when you return to the post hall. As for the memorial service, I will arrange it.

"Lord Ye, you're welcome. Then Shi Ling is waiting here. There is not much time left.

"Please."

Looking at the clear faces of others in the hall, Xueer was even more surprised. What the hell is going on? Can't you just hide it from me?"

Looking at Xue'er's eagerness, Man Xiu smiled even more. I said that 'women without talent is virtue' is vividly reflected in you. Since Prince Li is willing to send me to Yefu with slaves so generously, doesn't it mean that he doesn't care about the past? As for the memorial service, it must be carried out. In fact, he can't be mixed with anything else except love. However, as for Xixia to Song, the prince still wanted to fight for face for Xixia. At that time, he swore to the whole Xixia to avenge the princess. Now, my father has been dead for many years, and I don't know where the bones are. This is a well-known thing, but he came here specially for this matter. He had to put on his father's relics at the memorial, so as to fulfill his promise to Princess Qing and Xixia people. Prince Li, as a really generous person, admire and appreciate it!"

"Oh, that's it! He wants something that belongs to Uncle Qin to pay tribute to Princess Qing. On the one hand, he fulfilled his promise, on the other hand, he let go of Aunt Meng and you, and reflected the magnitude of his Xixia people, killing two birds with one stone.

"Well, it's really smart. That's right."

"Ha ha, I don't know who just said that 'women's talentlessness is virtue' is vividly reflected in me?"

Listening to Xue's strangeness, Manxiu smiled awkwardly.

"Man Xiu, I heard that the dagger on Aunt Meng's body is Qin Xingying, right? Just use that instead of Qin Xingying and go to Xixia for a walk. Ye Zilian suggested, and Man Xiu also nodded silently.

"Okay, let's go and see Aunt Meng." Cher said and pulled the repair out of the door.

Entering Bieyuan, Man Xiu saw Lin Yi and Yuan Fei talking at the door. Just as he was about to go to call, the door rang, and a man came out, not anyone else, but Lin Yi's wife.

"Man Xiu!" Manxiu's figure had obviously been caught by the aunt. Mrs. Lin immediately excitedly came forward and held her in her arms. Tears, like a flood that collapsed the dike, gushed out of her eyes.

"Aunt."

"My child, my good child, you have suffered! It's all my aunt's fault that she didn't protect you well and made you suffer for so many years in vain! I went home, but I still suffered this crime! Look, how thin they are!" Tears are accompanied by words of concern, but they deeply warm the heart of cultivation.

"Okay, the child is also tired. Let him rest." Seeing his wife hugging Manxiu so tightly that he was afraid that he would disappear out of thin air, Lin Yi couldn't help but come forward to dissuade him.

"Uncle, Uncle Yuan." Think about it, the name of uncle was reluctantly called in order not to hurt their hearts. But when you get used to it, it will become natural. Who would have thought that this was naturally true.

"Well, let's go in and have a look." Lin Yi patted Man Xiu on the shoulder, and Yuan Fei also motioned Man Xiu to go to the advanced house. Man Xiu knew that in this room, it was Meng Ling, the mother who had been separated for many years and had a brief reunion in Zhoufu before he could take a closer look.

"Brother Manxiu, are you here?" As soon as she entered the house, the first thing she saw was Jinlan, who was still as beautiful as a fairy. However, a few years had added a sad face to her face. It seemed that Ye Zilian's affairs, coupled with his psychology, were a great challenge to Jinlan. And now, she smiles so sweet and touchingly, is this the so-called bittersweetness?

Mother, the once gentle woman sitting in front of the dresser and being held in a bun by Jinlan is still so dignified and virtuous, and after Jinlan's skillful hands, her mother is even more beautiful. However, the discordant expression embedded in the beautiful face once again deeply stung Man Xiu's heart. Mother, what kind of ups and downs has this courageous woman experienced?

If what everyone said is true, he is really the only son of the Jinhua Su family, then in order to save him, his mother can be said to have experienced the test of life and death. Seven years, his mother raised him for seven years, and it is self-evident what it means for an unmarried young woman. Not only to him, but also to his father and his mother, and finally, he would rather die than hand over the secret of his father's life... In this life, the most glorious moments of this woman named Meng Ling's life were dedicated to him and his father. However, the rest of the life has to be spent in the moment of unconsciousness and confusion. When I think about it, my heart hurts.

"Mother..." Man Xiu walked softly behind his mother like a clever kitten, put his hands on his mother's shoulder very lightly, and quietly looked at his mother in the bronze mirror.

And almost at the same time, Jinlan stopped her hand and handed the comb to Manxiu. This may be a pity. She believes that Man Xiu wants to comb his mother's hair in person.

Sure enough, Man Xiu didn't say anything, so he took the comb and gently combed his mother's long messy hair. Fifteen years, the once young mother now has gray hair, and a burst of sadness comes to her heart.

"Manxiu, my good boy. You already know it, right? She is Linger, the close maid of my sister in the Su family. After you were born, your sister handed over the responsibility of taking care of you to her. Liu Xi actually hurt my sister's brother-in-law like that, and you won't even let go of the ignorant one. Thanks to Linger, otherwise, how can I see you again? Even if I die, how can I have the face to see my sister-in-law again? Mrs. Lin said with tears streaming down her throat.

Man Xiu has no impression of Mrs. Lin's sister-in-law, that is, her biological parents. However, seeing that Mrs. Lin is so human, her biological mother should also be a gentle and virtuous woman. He gave birth to him, but he didn't have a chance to raise him. After all, his fate with his mother was still shallow, and he was not blessed.

However, no blessing is a blessing. If not, how can he have such a brave mother as Meng Ling and a heroic father like Qin Wei?

I think he should be very grateful to God for giving him a chance to live.
