Chapter 205 A False Alarm
Little Fubao had no idea that everyone was watching her with bated breath. She looked innocent and said softly, "Fubao's mother is the most beautiful. No one is prettier than Fubao's mother. Fubao likes her mother."
After answering, Xiao Fubao grinned at Wan Ersao, his bright eyes curved into crescents, and he called out with a smile, "Mother."
When Wan Ersao heard Xiao Fubao's answer and saw his soft and sweet appearance, her heart melted. She covered her face with her hands and cried. She knew that Xiao Fubao was very smart and not an ordinary child.
Wan Xingmo also doted on Xiao Fubao's nose, with a doting smile on his face, and said with a smile: "What a little rascal."
Little Fubao felt itchy and started laughing.
Little Fubao's laughter dissipated a lot of the depressing atmosphere.
Wan Xingmo's next words brought the atmosphere of panic in the room to its peak.
"If you were a princess, would you be willing to go back?"
Without waiting for Xiao Fubao to answer, Old Lady Wan was the first to exclaim: "What? Princess?"
Wan Xingmo took little Fubao off his body and handed him to Wan Ersao.
Then he looked at everyone with a serious face and whispered, "In fact, this notice was not posted recently. It was posted in the city some time ago. When I found out, I immediately investigated who the owner of this notice was. The other party was obviously trying to conceal it, but I used some tricks to find out that this little Fubao was actually the Princess Fuyun who was lost in Yue State a year ago."
The Wan family has been shocked by Xiao Fubao's true identity. They know that Xiao Fubao's identity is not simple. At most, she is a lady from a wealthy family, but they did not expect that she is of royal blood. They are a family of peasants and want to keep Xiao Fubao. Can they fight against the royal family?
Wan Ersao was the first to react. She put Xiao Fubao aside, changed from sitting to kneeling, and began to kowtow to Wan Xingmo.
At the border, Wan Xingmo is the most capable person Wan Ersao knows. She has no other options now and can only ask Wan Xingmo for help.
"Mo'er, I know it's a little hard for you to ask Second Aunt to do this, but Second Aunt really doesn't want to lose Xiao Fubao. Second Aunt begs you to think of a way. As long as Xiao Fubao is not recognized, Second Aunt will do anything."
Little Fubao also knelt on the kang like his mother and kowtowed to Wan Xingmo. The mother and daughter looked at him with both sadness and amusement. Little Fubao had no idea what he was doing and just thought it was fun.
Wan Xingmo quickly helped Wan Ersao up and pulled little Fubao into his arms.
"Second Aunt, please sit down and talk first. Now that I'm back, I want to get your opinions so that I can take action."
When Wan Ersao heard that there was hope, she quickly sat down and looked at Wan Xingmo with expectant eyes.
Wan Xingmo thought carefully before asking Wan Ersao.
"Second Aunt, please forgive me for being blunt. If I have made you sad, please forgive me. I am doing this for Xiao Fubao's own good."
Wan Ersao quickly shook her head, "Mo'er, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Second Aunt can bear it."
Wan Xingmo then spoke carefully, "Second Aunt, have you ever thought about returning Xiao Fubao? After all, when she returns home, she will be a princess. Both her living environment and the love she will receive will be better than at the border of Da Qi. If Xiao Fubao grows up and knows her life story, will she hate you for taking away her princess status?"
Although Wan Xingmo's words were sharp, they hit the nail on the head. All parents hope that their children can have enough food and clothing and live a good life. Wan Ersao is no exception. However, no matter how hard she tries, she can never be better than the royal family.
Wan Ersao lowered her head when asked by Wan Xingmo. She admitted that she was selfish, but she really couldn't bear to give Xiao Fubao away.
Little Fubao felt her mother's sadness and grief, and quickly climbed into Wan Ersao's arms, using her little hands to wipe away her tears. Her own eyes were also filled with tears, and her little mouth pouted as she began to cry.
"Mom, don't cry, Fubao is in pain."
Little Fubao patted his chest, and two lines of hot tears flowed down his pink cheeks.
Wan Ersao hugged little Fubao tightly, buried her head in his little shoulders, and started to cry.
Old Mrs. Wan and Old Second Wan were already crying their eyes out. Wan Xingmo's words actually uncovered the mystery in everyone's hearts. Everyone in the Wan family knew what was good for little Fubao, but they subconsciously didn't want to make a choice.
Now that it had been pointed out clearly by Wan Xingmo, their thoughts were exposed, and a sense of sadness spread among everyone.
Wan Xingmo felt a little embarrassed when he saw that his words made all the Wan family members cry. He coughed lightly and then said, "Grandma Wan, Second Aunt, I'm just asking you. In fact, I have already solved this problem for you. Xiao Fubao will not leave your home for three to five years. I just want to ask if you will regret it. If you are willing to send Xiao Fubao away, my arrangement can be rescinded immediately."
Wan Xingmo's words and his heavy breathing made the people of the Wan family feel the torment of ice and fire for a moment.
"Mo'er, what you just said was true? Have you solved it?" Old Mrs. Wan wiped away her tears and quickly looked at Wan Xingmo.
Wan Xingmo nodded affirmatively. Actually, he also had his own selfish motives. He didn't want Xiao Fubao to leave here. Maybe they couldn't give Xiao Fubao a life like a princess, but the intrigues in the palace might not be suitable for Xiao Fubao. Although Xiao Fubao lived a life of luxury with a host of servants in the palace, the favor she received might not be as much as in the Wan family.
If little Fubao was favored in the palace, he might not have been brought to Da Qi.
Upon hearing this, Wan Ersao looked at Wan Xingmo in surprise and asked in a trembling voice, "Mo'er, is what you said true? Will no one come to snatch Xiao Fubao away from now on?"
Wan Xingmo nodded with a smile, and also told everyone the information he had found out.
It turns out that little Fubao was born with a red glow. At that time, the great wizard of Yue State said that little Fubao was the reincarnation of the lucky star. Therefore, little Fubao was forced to be separated from her mother at birth. She had never seen her biological mother since she was a child and was raised in a palace like a national treasure. The emperor would visit her every day, but would not allow her mother to visit her. Little Fubao enjoyed the best treatment, but she did not receive love.
It was said that she was protected, but in fact, it was no different from being kept in captivity. It was fine when Xiao Fubao was young, but if she was still kept in the palace when she grew up and was not allowed to leave the palace, what would be the meaning of her life? The world was so big, but in her eyes, it was only as big as a palace.
However, since little Fubao was born, the Kingdom of Yue had everything it wanted that year, the people enjoyed good weather and the country prospered, so the Emperor of Yue gave her the name Princess Fuyun.
However, things did not go as planned. One day, little Fubao was lost for unknown reasons. There was chaos in the Yue palace, and the emperor of Yue even mobilized his army to search the entire country. However, after searching for half a year, no trace of little Fubao was found. Later, the great wizard finally deduced that little Fubao's approximate location was at the border of Da Qi.
However, as Xiao Fubao grows up, her aura will become weaker and weaker, and even the great wizard of Yue State will find it difficult to guess Xiao Fubao's exact location. That's why Wan Xingmo said that it will not be a problem in three to five years.
After hearing about Xiao Fubao's life story, Wan Ersao felt even more pity for Xiao Fubao, and she also became more determined not to let go.
"Mo'er, I will never give up on Xiao Fubao. So what if she is a princess? But people can do many things besides eating and sleeping. I believe that even if Xiao Fubao grows up and I tell her her true identity, she will not resent me. Besides, our family is not short of food and drink now. We will definitely work harder to give Xiao Fubao a better life. We love Xiao Fubao wholeheartedly, and we are not treating her well just to take advantage of her."
At this time, Wan Ersao was extremely determined in her ideas, and her ideas were supported by everyone in the Wan family.
Wan Xingmo also felt relieved. In fact, he was also afraid that Wan Ersao would really choose to send Xiao Fubao back.
"Okay, then there's no problem. The next thing will go according to the plan I have arranged. I found an orphan who is similar to Xiao Fubao. In a few days, I will have someone hand her over to the merchant from Yue. They dare not act recklessly in Da Qi and can only search for people secretly. They dare not reveal their identities in the notice, which means that they are also afraid. After all, Da Qi's national strength is still much stronger than Yue's. They dare not act recklessly in Da Qi."
This is also the confidence that Wan Xingmo can ensure that Xiao Fubao can stay.
After all, this is a search for someone in a foreign country, and the other party is at a great disadvantage in terms of momentum.
"Mo'er, how do you want Second Aunt to thank you?"
"I want to eat the dumplings made by my second aunt. I haven't eaten them for a long time. It would be even better if there was some wine."
Wan Xingmo was now completely lively and cheerful like a teenager.
Wan Ersao quickly wiped her tears and hurriedly got off the kang and said, "Okay, wait, Second Aunt will go make dumplings right away. There will be plenty of dumplings and wine tonight."
At the same time, Zheng, who went to the town to get medicine, saw the portrait of Xiao Fubao on the notice.
