Xie Wanyun stopped and looked back. His cold eyes swept across his face.
"Excuse me, Master Yan, what else can I do for you?"
Yan Suizhi took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to her, his brows as gentle as water.
"This is a letter from Jinbai to you."
The color quickly drained from Xie Wanyun's face. This information came so suddenly that she froze for a moment.
"What's wrong? Aren't you always thinking about Jin Bai? Don't you want to read his letter?" Yan Suizhi said with a smile.
Xie Wanyun took the letter, but his trembling fingers didn't tear open the envelope for a long time.
Yan Suizhi felt heartbroken, but pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Don't worry, Meimei. Take it home and take a look at it slowly."
Xie Wanyun opened his eyes wide, and in the dim light, he could vaguely see some violet-white words!
Five years have passed, and Jinbai's handwriting has become more vigorous and powerful.
Her eyes immediately filled with tears, and the words in front of her became blurry and unclear.
She took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "Where did you get the letter?"
"I... arranged spies in Mobei. How could I be at ease with my son in such a faraway place? I naturally arranged people."
Yan Suizhi wanted to say, don't worry, I will tell you as soon as I have any news, but he knew that Xie Wanyun hated him hiding things the most.
Xie Wanyun didn't bother to say anything more to him. He turned around and got on the carriage, and ordered the driver to go faster, faster!
She held the letter in her hands, stroking it over and over again, not even willing to open it. She just wanted to wait until she got home to read it carefully.
Finally arriving home, Xie Wanyun rushed into the bedroom in two steps.
Yuzhui had already thoughtfully lit several bright candles, making the room warm and bright.
Xie Wanyun carefully placed the envelope over the candle flame to melt the wax seal.
Watching the candle wax dripping slowly, he gently pulled out the letter.
The letter is long and thick.
"Mother." As soon as she saw these two words, tears blurred her eyes again.
She pressed her handkerchief to her eyes, gently wiped away her tears, and read the book word by word almost greedily.
"Mother, I miss you so much. You must miss me too, right? Alas, but what can I do? Mother, don't worry, I'm fine. Junhao, Silong, and I have always been together. The people of Mobei are also very kind to us and have never made things difficult for us. I have become good friends with the Sixth Prince of Mobei. We just had a sword fight the day before yesterday. I defeated him, but he was not convinced, so he ended up wrestling and defeating Junhao again."
Xie Wanyun couldn't help but smile at the corner of his lips.
Jinbai's letter was rambling, and she used a child's tone throughout, as if she was still leaning against her mother and acting coquettishly.
"Mother, I'm wearing a new robe today. The merchant said the material was from Yunjianfang. Junhao and Silong both said it looks great on me. Hehe, by the way, mother, I've grown taller. Junhao said I look a lot like you, and I think so too. There are also girls who gave me flowers, but I don't think they are as pretty as you."
Xie Wanyun burst into laughter, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and murmured, "You've grown up."
No matter how long the letter was, there was a time to finish it. She read it over and over again until she had memorized every word.
She seemed to see Jin Bai's smiling face floating on the letter paper, calling out "Mother" over and over again.
She kept thinking of the day they parted, when Jin Bai leaned out of the car window, his face covered in tears, and waved to her desperately.
Time flies, and that cute little boy has grown into a handsome young man.
Xie Wanyun's tears have flowed into a river.
Yuzhui came over quietly and cut the candle flame.
Xie Wanyun's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were shining.
"Madam, what are you doing..."
"Yuzhui, I want to expand the Xie family's business to Mobei so that I can see Jinbai more often." Xie Wanyun hated himself for not thinking of this idea earlier.
In the past, the relationship between the imperial court and Mobei was tense, but it has eased in recent years. Why didn't she think of opening up trade routes? This is the best reason.
It’s not too late to think about it now.
"Madam, please do whatever you want. I will always support you."
