The maid outside the door said, "Princess, the young lady has just fallen asleep."
Cuiping, "There's no light in the room."
“…”
When she heard Cuiping's voice from her aunt's side, Ju Nian'er quickly got off the bed and came over to open the door without wearing shoes!
The maid asked, "Miss, why aren't you wearing shoes?"
Ju Nian'er quickly threw herself into Yuan Xueyue's arms, "I haven't slept yet."
Yuan Xueyue reached out and rubbed her head, smiling, "Auntie is here to accompany you."
"Um!"
Yuan Xueyue picked up Ju Nian'er and carried her into the house.
"Are you scared?"
"I'm going to see your mother tomorrow and pay my respects to her for the first time."
Yuan Xueyue asked.
Ju Nian'er shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid."
"My mother loved me very much when she was alive. I'm just afraid of being alone."
Yuan Xueyue placed her on the couch and patted her back gently, "Nian'er, we are still here."
"Your second brother is Changsong, Changxingyunxing, and there will be more companions in the future."
After hearing this, Ju Nian'er reached out to touch Yuan Xueyue's belly in the dim light of the room.
"Will there be any here?"
Ju Nian'er pretended to be innocent.
Yuan Xueyue smiled and said, "There will be someday."
Daybreak, early morning.
They set out at noon, braving the slight rain.
After half an hour by carriage and less than an hour on foot, we soon arrived at our destination.
This Zhuangzi is where Ju Niuer was born.
In the back mountain of Zhuangzi is where Ju Niuer returned to her hometown.
Ju Nian'er knelt down, placed the offerings and prepared things in front of the tomb, lit the incense, and kowtowed.
Cuiping brought two maids and scattered white paper nearby.
Ju Nian'er kowtowed a few times, burned paper money, and silently said in her heart,
Mother, please take care. I will get along well with my second brother, uncle and aunt.
I won’t make you worry too much.
There are also two more lovely younger brothers. Prince Changxing is steady and deep.
Second Prince Yunxing is sometimes careless and naughty, but he always feels a little different.
Anyway, they are all good...
Not long after, Yuan Xueyue also came to burn some and sprinkle it on.
"Girl, we are here to take good care of Nian'er."
"Don't worry."
The sky was clear and Yuan Xueyue watched Ju Nian'er stay for a while longer in silence.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhao stepped forward and bowed,
"Princess, someone is here to see you."
Yuan Xueyue became alert, "Who is it?"
They are worshiping here, why would anyone come?
The guards were all around, keeping watch.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhao brought a woman and a girl!
It was Xu and Zhong Wulian.
Yuan Xueyue didn't say anything, but looked at Xu and understood what she meant.
Xu bowed slightly to her and walked forward silently.
Zhong Wulian also came over and burned paper money with Ju Nian'er.
"You..." Ju Nian'er was shocked.
Why are they here?
Xu smiled lightly, "We heard it was your mother's death anniversary, so we came to see her too."
Ju Nian'er felt a lot more relieved.
They actually remember!
So, Xu burned a little, stood up and came to Yuan Xueyue, and said softly,
"how?"
Xu knew something about it. Prince Xian was going on a war, and the world was about to change hands.
Yuan Xueyue said, "That's good. What, have you thought it through?"
Xu smiled, it was undeniable.
"Indeed, I didn't dare to think about it before, but we haven't lived enough. I admit that I was a little selfish."
"But now, I can't give Wu Lian anything good by myself."
Yuan Xueyue, "So?"
Suddenly, Xu fell to her knees!
Yuan Xueyue was surprised, "Why are you doing this?"
Xu, "Please grant me your blessing, Princess! I can also be like Ju Niu'er, willing to sacrifice myself and help Wu Lian come to your side!"
"As long as I can secure a good future for Wulian, I'd be willing to die!"
Yuan Xueyue, “…”
She looked left and right and whispered,
"Don't talk about this now, Nian'er's mother is here."
Xu was stunned and quickly kowtowed to apologize, "I'm sorry, I was so frightened..."
So, Xu turned around and started burning paper money.
And Yuan Xueyue was thinking.
Actually, there's nothing to consider. If Zhong Wulian were to say...
She can be taken in.
But if Xu is around, then he has to be demoted one level.
After all, as long as the mother is there, the selfish desire is there too.
What mother doesn’t want the best for her child?
However, the people in the Zhong Mansion are no longer able to do it.
There is nothing trustworthy about Xu's family.
Who else can I ask to look after Xu?
After paying homage, Ju Nian'er left the mountain in the afternoon in a depressed mood. Zhong Wulian accompanied her, and Dai Yunxing comforted her.
Dai Changxing followed and listened silently.
At the foot of the mountain.
They were about to go their separate ways, and Xu once again looked at Yuan Xueyue.
"princess."
Cuiping and the others were all watching, thinking that Xu must have a plan for coming at this time.
On the way down the mountain, Yuan Xueyue had already made up her mind.
She said,
"Please wait for now. I'll give you news in two days."
She was not taken into consideration during this trip. It was too abrupt to suddenly bring Xu and Zhong Wulian along after such a long and tiring journey.
It's not discarding, nor is it dislike.
Rather, this place originally belonged to Xu and Zhong Wulian.
From now on, they can be allowed to live in the city!
Xu was startled and knelt down with Zhong Wulian, "Princess!"
Zhong Wulian also called out, "Auntie."
Yuan Xueyue said, "In the next two days, you should clean up your place in the mountains, pack your bags, and come back."
"The Zhong Mansion can be unsealed, and so can the Yuan Mansion."
