Chapter 523 Dissension
At this time, Madam Zhang was busy with the birth of her grandson. She had no time to care about Xu Miaomiao's affairs. Naturally, she did not see the scene of Xu Miaomiao taking Xu Nianmiao away. Gu Yuanniang and Xu Qingshan in the house stood there awkwardly, looking at each other with hesitation in their eyes.
Gu Yuanniang could no longer hold back and turned around, looking at Xu Qingshan and said, "Now that Liu Juan has given birth to a child, if you don't take her in, the child will definitely be nameless and without status. After all, he is the only male in your Xu family. Why not let Liu Juan be taken in as a concubine or a concubine? I don't care anyway."
Xu Qingshan chuckled when he heard this. He just calmed down, but immediately became a little crazy again. He grabbed Gu Yuanniang's shoulders and questioned her, saying, "You don't care. Why don't you care? Don't you care about Liu Juan? Or have you never cared about me?"
Gu Yuanniang was somewhat confused by his words. She questioned him in confusion and said, "When I was married to Cui Yuan before, he wanted a concubine many times, but I refused. In the end, we broke up. Now I understand that your heart is with me. No matter how many wives you take, I don't care. Besides, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?"
"So, you are not afraid of others taking my love away from you, and is letting Liu Juan come in what you really want?"
Gu Yuan's mother was puzzled by his words. He was obviously thinking about Xu Qingshan, so why couldn't Xu Qingshan understand his painstaking efforts? If Liu Juan was not allowed to enter, what kind of pressure would Madam Zhang put on him? Why did Xu Qingshan never consider these things? She was always confused in her heart, but Gu Yuan's mother didn't say anything and just nodded at him.
Xu Qingshan let go of Gu Yuanniang's hand in despair, and suddenly laughed at himself: "At that time you said that you were with me because of Madam Xu's support. Unexpectedly, today, you are also doing it for the recognition of the Xu family. Have you ever really cared about me in your heart?"
"Of course I care." Gu Yuanniang looked at his question and spoke.
Xu Qingshan, however, shook his head: "You said that you would be angry because Cui Yuan took a concubine, but I didn't mind Liu Juan at all when I took a concubine, and you still said that you cared about me."
Having said that, Xu Qingshan staggered outside.
Gu Yuanniang sighed. She naturally understood what Xu Qingshan wanted, but what did it matter whether he cared or not? Even if he cared, how could Liu Juan let this matter go? He dragged it until Liu Juan gave birth to a child, just to give Liu Juan a legitimate identity. Madam Zhang was already dissatisfied with her. If he didn't let Xu Qingshan bring Liu Juan into the family, then their marriage might come to an end. He came up with this idea in order to stay with Xu Qingshan for a longer time. Xu Qingshan didn't like Liu Juan anyway. Even if he got into the family and gave him an identity, he could live his life in peace. But why didn't Xu Qingshan understand this day?
Gu Yuanniang watched him leave and sighed.
"Mom, why did Dad leave?" Ling'er, who was standing aside, was still a little confused about Xu Qingshan's departure, and took the initiative to come forward to ask Gu Yuan's mother.
Gu Yuan's mother touched Ling'er's head and said with a smile: "Daddy still has his own things to do, what's wrong? Ling'er."
"Ling'er misses her sister and wants to come and see her."
Ling'er bared his teeth and looked at Gu Yuan's mother, who was grinning. Hearing Ling'er's words, Gu Yuan's mother felt a little pain in her heart, but she still comforted the boy in front of her, patted his head, and said with a smile: "Sister has something to do these two days, so she went out to play with her godmother."
"Is my sister sick? That's why she wants to follow her godmother."
Ling'er blinked, looked at Xu Miaomiao and spoke.
Xu Miaomiao nodded: "Will my sister die in that case?"
When asked this question, Gu Yuanniang laughed, but still looked into the distance with a serious expression and shook her head: "I don't know."
Seeing that Gu Yuan's mother looked so lonely, Ling'er immediately put her hand on his, comforted him, and said, "Don't be afraid, mother, I will always be with you. Let's make a wish to the stars in the sky together. In this way, my sister will be fine. Godmother will definitely save him."
Hearing this, Gu Yuan's mother nodded, touched Ling'er's head with a smile, and looked outside the house with him. It was noon and it was not dark yet.
Xu Miaomiao held Nian Miao in her arms and came to the inn where Nangong Jin was resting. When Nangong Jin saw Xu Miaomiao holding the child in her arms, he sighed: "Whose baby is this? Is it reliable? Will they agree to let you take their child to such a dangerous place?"
Xu Miaomiao nodded: "I am the godmother of this child, and the child's parents also agree. We should quickly bring people and carry out our plan, so that we can quickly rescue the people in there."
Nangong Jin looked at Xu Miaomiao's determined expression and nodded immediately: "Madam Xu, you are right, we must hurry up. If we speed up a step, more people will come out. Then you can take the child with you to West Street where they will meet. Remember, you are a poor woman who wants to go to the capital alone with a child."
Xu Miaomiao nodded, thought for a while, and changed into a set of gray clothes. She also wiped the marks on her face and changed the cloth that wrapped the child into a piece of tattered cloth.
Seeing the baby in her arms lying so obediently, not crying or making a fuss, Xu Miaomiao touched her cheek with some heartache and said, "I'm sorry, you have to go through this right after you were born. I'm sorry to you. If there is a future, I will make it up to you."
Xu Miaomiao came to East Street while holding Xu Nianmiao. When he first came in, everyone around him looked at her curiously.
Xu Miaomiao pulled the headscarf on her face and walked forward timidly. Her steps were very small and fragmented. The waiter beside her couldn't stand it anymore and took a step forward. "I wonder if this lady is here to stay or to stay overnight."
Xu Miaomiao looked at the man in front of her carefully, and then she said, "I want to go to the capital, I wonder if this young man has any ideas?"
Xu Miaomiao could clearly feel that when he said he was going to the capital, everyone around him became alert.
