In fact, not only did Long Xiaoliu not know much about Mo Lan'an's biological mother, but very few people in the Immortal Realm knew about her either.
All that is known is that Mo Lan'an came from a humble background, died young, and was neither liked nor valued by the Heavenly Emperor.
After that, Mo Lan'an broke the record for the youngest person to become a god-king through his talent and hard work, becoming the most outstanding among the sons of the Heavenly King, and thus gradually came into the public eye.
Otherwise, very few people in the immortal realm would even know that he existed.
So when Long Xiaoliu suddenly heard Mo Lan'an mention his biological mother, he was momentarily at a loss.
Instead, she advised him:
"Actually, if you look at it from another perspective, your mother is no longer bound by constraints. She is free and happy. You should be happy for her."
Even a mother is still a person.
Her life should belong to herself, not to anyone else, not even her own children.
It's wonderful to be happy now.
“Yes, that’s what I think too. Liu Liu… I’ll go to Father tomorrow to withdraw the imperial edict, but it will take time, we can’t withdraw it right now… You can wait three months.”
Mo Lan'an said.
He sought the imperial decree from his father, which stipulated that the marriage would not be to Shen Tiantian, but to Shen Liuliu.
However, the imperial edict stated that the marriage was bestowed upon Shen Qiaoluo, the eldest daughter of the Shen family.
At the time, Mo Lan'an told Shen Tiantian that her name was not elegant enough, so she just picked a nicer-sounding name.
Shen Tiantian knew that she was recorded in the Shen family genealogy, so she naturally assumed that she was the eldest daughter.
That's when I believed it.
In reality, Shen Qiaoluo was the name that Shen Wanli paid someone to give Shen Liuliu. However, everyone just called her Liuliu and forgot that Shen Qiaoluo was Liuliu's real name.
Even Shen Tiantian didn't know. (仟仟尛哾)
No, it's more likely that Shen Liuliu has forgotten that she has such a beautiful name.
Shen Liuliu was quite regretful about this. If her family had called her by her full name, she wouldn't have had to descend to the mortal realm once, and her name still wouldn't have changed.
It doesn't sound good at all.
"It's okay, I'm still so young, it won't cause any delays or problems. It's the same if I withdraw it in six months or a year, just so you won't be in a difficult position."
Shen Liuliu is very easy to talk to.
Mo Lan'an was somewhat disappointed. He mustered his courage and asked, "Little Six, if you successfully complete this tribulation... will you really marry Jing Cong?"
"So what are your thoughts?"
Shen Liuliu boldly asked a question in return.
She wanted to see if he had the courage to say it.
If she doesn't even have the courage to speak up, then there's no point in trying anything.
"have!"
Mo Lan'an was incredibly excited and wanted to laugh, but she also felt she should be serious and composed. For a moment, her facial features were all over the place, and she couldn't control her expressions.
"Pfft, don't be so nervous. Don't you like me? Then why are you so nervous when you see me?"
Shen Liuliu couldn't help but laugh.
so cute.
Looking at the blank-minded Mo Lan'an, Shen Liuliu felt incredibly relieved.
"If I... if I have a way to break off your engagement with Jing Cong, then... could you try being with me?"
Mo Lan'an asked with extreme anxiety.
He wasn't this nervous when he was promoted to God-King.
I thought it would only be a lifetime of companionship in the mortal realm, but I never expected that I would actually have another chance...
"Do you have a way to dissolve our engagement? Our engagement was arranged by the Heavenly Emperor, do you have a way to do that?"
Shen Liuliu was very surprised.
The Heavenly Lord is always a man of his word, and this is a major event involving a marriage alliance between two clans. How could we possibly persuade the Heavenly Lord to change his mind?
"I... I have a way. Give me some time, three months, and I'm sure I can do it in three months."
The promise of the blue eucalyptus.
His eyes were full of joy.
Seeing his persistence, Shen Liuliu agreed: "Okay, I promise you. If you can dissolve my engagement with Jingcong, I'm willing to give it a try with you."
She doesn't love anyone.
But if we're talking about possible feelings...
Perhaps if she had to choose again, she would choose Lord Jinglan.
After all, her initial choice of Jing Cong was a misunderstanding; she thought it was Jing Cong who had saved her.
"Xiao Liu, wait for me."
——
After making that promise that day, Mo Lanan never appeared again.
However, thanks to Mo Lan'an's previous arrangements, no one in the capital dared to make things difficult for the Shen family.
Since Zhao Di's illness had also subsided, the family happily went to Beijing to stroll around and soak in hot springs.
Tian Guifen especially enjoys soaking in hot springs; it's incredibly relaxing.
Shen Erming then discussed it with Tian Guifen, saying, "Mother, you seem to enjoy hot springs so much, why don't we move to the capital? It'll be closer to An'an. Plus, the children can study better here. It's also closer to Wutiao than home, what do you say?"
The men's and women's hot springs are separated by a wall.
Because it was a private hot spring, there were no other people besides the Shen family. This was something Mo Lan'an had arranged beforehand.
"In no mood."
Tian Guifen refused without even thinking.
She's getting old, and now she enjoys spending time with the villagers, basking in the sun, chatting, and talking about everyday life.
If you come to the capital, then you can't.
Shen Erming was taken aback by Tian Guifen's quick rejection, and then slowly said, "Mother, have you ever thought about what would happen if An'an liked Liu Liu and wanted to marry her? Would you still move in?"
"Second Brother."
Shen Liuliu gave Shen Erming a faint warning.
She hadn't thought things through yet, so naturally she didn't like her second brother making random pronouncements.
Tian Guifen's surprised gaze fell on Shen Liuliu. To be honest, she said, "I know An'an likes our Liuliu. My daughter is so good... but their social statuses are so different. I'm worried that once we get to the capital, there will be scheming and backstabbing..."
In short, Tian Guifen was very satisfied with Mo Lan'an and knew that he liked her daughter.
However, because of Mo Lan'an's status, they felt that their family was not good enough for him, and also because of his status, they felt that their daughter would suffer too much if she married into his family.
So they were reluctant.
However, Tian Guifen didn't rule out the possibility entirely: "Of course, if Liu Liu likes it, I won't object. If Liu Liu really likes it, then we can buy a house in the capital, and your father and I can come here to stay for a while every winter, soak in the hot springs, and then go back to the village when it gets warmer."
"I still prefer being in the village. As for you, do whatever you want, I don't care."
She's almost sixty.
Why would they care about so many other things?
Children and grandchildren have their own blessings.
Zhao Di whispered to Shen Liu Liu, "Liu Liu, do you like An An?"
"Second sister-in-law, I'm only nine years old, how would I know whether I like it or not?"
"Really? You're only nine years old. I always thought you were much older."
Zhao Di said awkwardly.
Shen Liuliu was helpless.
Are you with An'an?
Just thinking about it, it doesn't seem so bad, but many things still need to be discussed later.
The three-day deadline passed in the blink of an eye.
Shen Liuliu never expected that when Mo Lan'an appeared in front of her, he would be covered in blood and in such a disheveled state.
