Chapter 62 It’s time to send him away
Duan Yuhan reached out and held him in her arms. The child was so small that it was impossible to tell his facial features or gender.
"Baby, I'm sorry."
The little guy wanted to raise his hand to wipe her tears, but as if he thought of his previous experience, he took his hand back.
Duan Yuhan hugged him and whispered a lot.
Su Nuobai didn't disturb her and found that her face had changed.
This is interesting.
When the time was almost up, she looked at the mother and son and said, "It's time to send him away."
Although Duan Yuhan was reluctant to let the child go, she also knew that it would not be a good thing for the child to stay with her: "Go, baby. Find a good family in your next life."
Su Nuobai opened a small ghost door and watched the little guy look back at Duan Yuhan every few steps.
Duan Yuhan kept waving at him.
Su Nuobai could see the little guy's reluctance and attachment.
Duan Yuhan waited until the ghost gate completely disappeared before she burst into tears: "Why, why?"
Su Nuobai waited until she had cried enough before saying, "Madam, why don't you think about it? You and this child have a deep bond as mother and son."
Duan Yuhan was slightly stunned, then looked up at Su Nuobai: "Master, what do you mean?"
Su Nuobai picked up the teacup and said, "Given your current situation, your husband's family will definitely force you to adopt an heir. If you keep refusing, you might end up getting yourself killed."
"What? They want to kill me?" Duan Yuhan looked at her in disbelief.
Su Nuobai nodded calmly: "They will let you die and falsely claim it was a sudden death, and your family won't be able to find any fault with you."
"Finally, they'll use the excuse that you have no children and ask your family to choose one of his children to adopt as your own. This way, someone will visit your grave during Qingming Festival."
"Of course, their real purpose is to avoid cutting off your family's support. Given how much your parents love you, they naturally don't want you to be alone a hundred years from now."
"So your dowry and your family's support will all end up in this child. Even your parents will love this child immensely."
Duan Yuhan was completely stunned when she heard this: "How dare they?"
"Why would I be afraid? What a wonderful play! Even if you die, he will still be a good husband who loves his wife deeply."
"I can hold my head high, get all your benefits, and be with the girl I love."
After Su Nuobai finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
Duan Yuhan felt a chill all over her body: "This person is really scary."
Su Nuobai looked at her and stabbed her again: "When he gets everything he wants, your family will also die miserably."
Duan Yuhan was sweating profusely: "He's just crossing the river and destroying the bridge, and then he's done with it."
Su Nuobai observed her face as he spoke, and he knew that people's faces would change.
Duan Yuhan seemed to have made an important decision: "Master, what should I do?"
Su Nuobai smiled and drank the lukewarm tea: "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
This dynasty was quite lenient towards women and encouraged women who had been divorced or widowed to remarry.
Duan Yuhan stood up and knelt down in front of Su Nuobai. If Yin Die hadn't asked her to come, she might never have known until her death that her husband's family was so ambitious.
Su Nuobai raised her hand and gave her a slight support: "Madam, you have done a lot of good deeds on a daily basis. We are destined to be together. I will say one more thing to you, Madam."
Duan Yuhan looked up at her: "Master, please speak."
"This child is destined to be with you. Maybe she will come back to you in a few years." Su Nuobai saw that the deathly look on her face had disappeared.
And her true love is quietly approaching.
Duan Yuhan looked at Su Nuobai in surprise, as if she already knew what to do.
Su Nuobai stood up and said, "Madam, get more sun recently and do more good deeds in the future."
Duan Yuhan thanked him quickly and called in her personal maid to bring a purse to her: "Master, this is the divination fee."
Su Nuobai was thinking about how to collect the money when the sleeping Mo Bao jumped out of the bag and took the purse with his mouth.
Duan Yuhan looked at Mobao in surprise when he suddenly appeared. He saw it sitting the purse under its butt and licking its paws with its head down.
Su Nuobai laughed and said, "My Mobao was a little naughty. I hope he didn't scare the Madam."
Duan Yuhan smiled and waved her hands: "No, no."
Su Nuobai handed her a protective talisman: "Madam, please carry this talisman with you. It can save your life in a critical moment."
Duan Yuhan quickly put it away: "Thank you."
Su Nuobai turned to look at Mo Bao: "Mo Bao is gone, we are going to set up the stall."
Mo Bao jumped into Su Nuobai's arms with the purse in his mouth.
Su Nuobai held it and left the private room.
Duan Yuhan watched the two of them leave. The tears on her face had dried, and she returned to her dignified appearance: "Let's go back to the Duan family."
When Uncle Jia saw her coming back, he waved to her and wanted to ask something but didn't dare to.
Su Nuobai held Mobao and stroked its fur: "Uncle, there are some things that are better not known."
Uncle Jia was just very curious, as the stories of the wealthy and powerful families were not something people like him could hear.
"Master, are you telling fortunes with three meat buns here?" an old man walked up to her and asked.
Su Nuobai looked up at the old man, who had a head full of white hair and was wearing a coarse linen shirt full of patches. He was holding three meat buns wrapped in oil paper cloth in his hand and was looking at her with cautious eyes.
"Yes. Old man, what do you want to be counted?"
When Mr. Du heard this, he immediately laughed, and the wrinkles on his face became more obvious.
He sat on the small stool and gently placed the paper bag in front of Su Nuobai: "Master, I want to find my son. This is the divination money."
Su Nuobai looked at his hands, which were covered with rough calluses and his fingers were covered with cracked wounds. He reached out to take the bun and asked again, "Old man, what happened to your son?"
"He has been missing for many years. Some people said they saw him in Shengjing." Mr. Du said a little awkwardly.
Su Nuobai looked at his children's palace and found that it had not collapsed, which meant that he had not lost his child.
"He never went back?"
Mr. Du nodded quickly: "No, ten years ago he said he was doing business with someone, so I gave him all the money in the family, but I haven't heard from him since."
"My whole family waited for him to come back, but we waited and waited and never saw him. When his mother passed away, she told me to find him."
"The other children in my family all thought that this eldest brother was dead, but I always felt that he was not dead. Later, someone said that they had seen him in Shengjing."
"I ignored the other kids' attempts to stop me and came to look for him. I wanted to see his body if he was dead or alive. But I've been in Shengjing for some time, and I still haven't found him."
Grandpa Du smiled sheepishly and said, "I heard that there's a fortune teller who only charges buns for divination and is very accurate, so I thought I'd give it a try."
He looked a little sad. "Master, if my son is gone, you don't have to hide it from me. I'll tell my wife when I get home. Maybe they can meet again in the afterlife."
After saying that, he wiped away a tear.
