Chapter 653: Unfulfilled Wish
The dream was not very clear, but Yin Li could vaguely feel that no matter in the past life or this life, he was the one who was not chosen.
"In the past, you could still say that she was attracted by his beauty, but once she realized he was a scumbag, she would run back obediently."
Yin Li muttered to herself, "But now half of that scumbag's face is as black as charcoal, and she hasn't said a word of regret..."
He thought about it, and seeing that no one was around, he finally showed a frustrated look, but then he snorted coldly: "You ungrateful little girl!"
Hu Xiner looked down on him, but that certainly wasn't because there was something wrong with him, but because that girl had poor taste!
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and strolled out leisurely.
Who knew that as soon as he reached the door, he saw a large group of soldiers and a carriage parked outside.
When Yin Li saw the emblem on the car, her heart skipped a beat.
In the side room of the Du family, Mu Qing stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, crying silently.
Lu Yunjue sat on the edge of the bed, blankly thinking about something.
When Hu Xiner came here with Xiao Liu's support, she happened to see Miss Du wandering at the door.
She seemed to be unsure whether she should go in or not, so she was a little hesitant.
Hu Xiner called out, "Xiaoqin? What's the matter with you coming here?"
Du Xiaoqin whispered, "Madam Lu, we have already cleaned up the old lady's room. Dad knows that there are many things going on in your family, so he has strictly blocked the news."
"You're so thoughtful," Hu Xin'er said gratefully. "The situation was so urgent just now. If it weren't for your family, we don't know how we would have managed to hold on."
"This is what we should do." Miss Du looked at her face with concern and asked, "Are you feeling better? Please accept my condolences. If you still feel unwell, please let us take care of anything you need."
Hu Xin'er shook her head. "My friend also knows a little bit about medicine. After I fell unconscious, he treated me. Now I feel fine."
Even so, the sadness in his eyes couldn't be deceived. When a person is extremely sad, his spirit is always not as good as usual.
However, in the current situation, she couldn't really just give up and ignore the family affairs.
The more grief-stricken he was, the more he wanted to make sure Mother Lu's funeral was done properly and beautifully.
This not only comforts the spirit of Lu's mother in heaven, but also brings comfort to the living.
Miss Du looked at Hu Xiner unconsciously. Although the woman in front of her was not very good at martial arts, when danger came, she was much calmer and stronger than most men.
When she first learned about Hu Xiner's identity as a princess, she actually didn't quite believe it. It wasn't because she didn't trust Hu Xiner, but because she felt that Hu Xiner's image exceeded her understanding of a princess.
Shouldn't a princess of the Celestial Empire be dressed in brocade clothes, adorned with jewels and jade, or have elegant and noble conversation, or be arrogant and proud?
In short, it is not something that ordinary people can get close to.
However, Hu Xin'er is so vivid and down-to-earth.
She would laugh without restraint like an ordinary person, snuggle in her husband's arms like a little woman, be fragile and sad, and even envy others for having martial arts skills.
She never looked down on those of low status. When facing the strong, although she was neither humble nor arrogant, she did not show any arrogance that looked down on everything.
But now, Miss Du believes that the person in front of her is a truly noble person. This nobility is not revealed in luxurious clothes, but in the tenacity that emanates from his bones.
She felt that even if she were in Hu Xiner's situation, she would definitely not be able to do better than her.
This kind of excellence made her, a woman as well, couldn't help but look sideways.
Seeing her in a daze, Hu Xin'er gently called her name again and asked, "Miss Du, is there anything else? Why don't you come with me to visit them?"
Miss Du then remembered the important matter and her expression became a little strange.
She unconsciously lowered her voice: "My mother personally cleaned up Madam Lu's body, but after cleaning up everything else, the old lady still couldn't close her eyes!"
"What did you say?" Mu Qing actually looked out the door when he heard Hu Xiner talking, but he didn't expect to hear such news.
He got up from the bed and said, "How could this happen?!"
Lu Yunjue, standing beside him, was also stunned and said, "To die with eyes open is to rest the deceased. Does mother have any unfulfilled wishes?"
The two brothers did not believe in ghosts and gods on a daily basis, but when faced with the death of someone close to them, they could not help but have some extravagant hopes for the deceased's ghost.
At this point, the two brothers could not help but feel a lump in their throats. When people are sad, their tears are always less precious than usual.
Needless to say, they all knew about Mother Lu's unfulfilled wish.
One is Jiang Yao, whom she was concerned about during her difficult first half of her life.
The second is their two useless sons.
"Don't worry, you two." After Hu Xin'er comforted the two, she looked at Miss Du again, "Please lead the way, Miss Du. We want to go visit our mother."
Miss Du nodded: "My parents also found it strange, so they have been staying in the old lady's room. If she really has a soul, she won't feel lonely. Don't worry."
Hu Xiner followed her hurriedly forward, and when she arrived at the room, she realized that this was where Miss Du used to live. She couldn't help but feel more apologetic and grateful towards the Lu family.
Mother Lu died here, and they were afraid that they could no longer live here. However, Du's parents not only had no complaints, but were also willing to stay with their mother's body.
This kind of friendship is really touching.
When Lu Yunjue saw his mother's body, he couldn't help but take a few quick steps forward and said, "Mom!"
He looked around, as if hoping to see Lu's mother's soul, even if it was just a gust of wind or a shadow.
But the room was just quiet, and Mother Lu's eyes were still open on her peaceful face.
This scene may be a little scary to outsiders, but anyone who knows how gentle and kind Mother Lu was when she was alive will not be afraid of it.
Lu Yunjue cried for a long while before he said in a hoarse voice, "Mother, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Are you missing your aunt? Don't worry, we will definitely notify your aunt as soon as possible and ask her to come back to see you."
He placed his palm on Mother Lu's eyelids, but Mother Lu's eyes did not close.
Hu Xiner turned around and saw that although Mu Qing was standing beside her, his clothes were already wet with tears.
"Let's go see Mother too." She patted Mu Qing's hand.
"Yeah." Mu Qing cried out from his nose.
The couple stepped forward together, and Mu Qing bent his knees and knelt heavily on the ground.
