Chapter 510
Qingshui Village is not far from Jizhou; it only takes two days to get there.
Upon arriving in Jizhou, Madam Chen went straight to the official residence. Upon seeing Duan Huaichuan, she immediately asked, "Where does Xi'er live?"
Duan Huaichuan was not surprised to see Madam Chen suddenly arrive. He first bowed to Madam Chen and Qiu Guo'er, and then personally led them over.
The area around Yunxi's house was filled with residential houses. Although the house itself wasn't luxurious, it was cozy and elegant, making it an excellent place to live.
The carriage slowly came to a stop in front of the door. Duan Huaichuan stepped forward and knocked on the door. A woman came over, but she was a young maid whom Madam Chen did not recognize.
Upon seeing Madam Chen, the woman quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This servant, Le'an, greets Madam."
"Get up quickly, get up quickly."
Madam Chen personally helped Le'an up, then looked at Duan Huaichuan: "And this is...?"
"This servant is here to serve you, young lady," Le'an said with a smile. "You must be the madam, right? The young lady has been talking about you for so long, and you've finally come!"
Madam Chen immediately smiled broadly, her eyes crinkling at the corners: "Really? That girl still misses me?"
"Of course," Le'an welcomed the person into the courtyard. "I didn't believe you when you said you would come, but you came so quickly. You really do care about my young lady!"
Mrs. Chen's smile widened even more.
She followed them into the courtyard and immediately spotted Yunxi.
Yunxi seemed to be the same as before, wearing a cloth dress she made herself, her black hair casually tied into a simple bun. This simple attire made her natural beauty and extraordinary elegance stand out even more.
Although her appearance hadn't changed, Madam Chen still felt that Yunxi's eyes held something different, no longer as pure as before.
It's heartbreaking.
When Madam Chen looked at Yunxi, Yunxi was also looking at her.
Two lifetimes apart, the last impression Madam Chen left on her was that of an extremely thin figure hanging from the beam, swinging back and forth. But the Madam Chen in front of her was not thin at all. Although she was not wearing any expensive jewelry, she inexplicably appeared to be quite wealthy.
As they watched, both mother and daughter's eyes welled up with tears.
Yunxi's lips moved for a moment, and finally she called out in a trembling voice, "Mother..."
Madam Chen could no longer hold back. She took a few steps forward and pulled Yunxi into her arms: "You child! Do you still have me in your heart? I sent you so many visiting cards in Luoyang, and you didn't come to see me! You heartless girl... I thought you had forgotten your mother!"
In the end, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but cry.
The mother and daughter embraced and wept, and Ji Xiang Le An, who was standing nearby, was also moved and couldn't help but wipe away her own tears.
Madam Chen stopped crying first, and the first thing she did was wipe away Yunxi's tears: "Alright, alright, don't cry anymore. Mother is here now, isn't that a good thing!"
Yunxi nodded, but tears still streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Madam Chen held her in her arms and asked, "Why did you come to Jizhou with Huaichuan? Is it because the Yun family has treated you badly?"
"That's not true."
As Yunxi said this, tears still streamed down her face.
These past few days, she had prepared herself mentally, and originally did not want Mrs. Chen to know these things.
Unexpectedly, the defenses she had built up in her heart were easily shattered by a single word of concern from Madam Chen.
Her tears flowed more and more fiercely, and anyone could see her grievances.
Seeing this, Madam Chen's eyes hardened even more: "The higher the official rank, the more inhumane they become! They can't even take care of their own daughter, and they call themselves ministers! They might as well let a dog do it!"
"Don't be afraid, Xi'er. Mother is here. From now on, no matter what happens, Mother will never let Xi'er face it alone!"
Qiu Guo'er frowned as she looked at Yun Xi, who was crying uncontrollably, and pulled Duan Huaichuan outside.
