"Foolish. Thinking of you so much, I write this poem with great pain. Lost in the dust, the cold night, the empty branches."
At four o'clock in the morning, Huaqiao Village was completely silent. However, from the country road west of the village, the sound of a woman muttering something could be heard. With her was a small, brown, diamond-patterned python, about three meters long, swimming close behind her.
"Tianbao, it's that place in front..."
She was answered by the sound of the python swimming quickly forward, past her.
"Foolish. Thinking of you so much, I write this poem with great pain. Lost in the dust, the cold night, the empty branches."
…
Situ Ye was already fast asleep in the east wing of the Hua family's old house. The faint sound that came into his ears made him feel a chill all over his body, so he hugged the quilt beside him tighter.
Mu Lige, resting in the main room, had excellent hearing, and when the woman approached the fields at the end of Huaqiao Village, he suddenly opened his eyes. In the dim candlelight, Mu Lige looked at Hua Qingcheng, who slept sweetly in his arms, and gently kissed her forehead. His arms tightly embraced the sleeping person, but his ears were constantly alert to the movements outside.
Yu Xiaotian, who lived in the west wing, slept soundly as usual. However, when the python approached the fields not far from the Hua family's old house, the tiger cub Xiaobai in the room, who had grown more than twice as big as when he was born, cried "ooh-ooh" and "baa-baa-baa".
"Tianbao, why don't you leave?"
Under the moonlight, Han Shuying, dressed in a crimson dress, looked doubtfully at the python that was hesitating to move forward and even wanted to turn around and run away. She thought: Why did this thing suddenly become so timid?
But when she heard the faint sounds of roosters and sheep coming from the front, Han Shuying couldn't help but get angry. She immediately picked up the emerald green jade flute in her hand and beat the python hard.
"waste!"
"waste!"
"You're a python!"
“I’m actually afraid of even roosters and sheep!”
The little python was crawling on the ground and trembling. Although it hissed when it was beaten, it did not dare to resist at all.
Of course, a rooster or a sheep isn't scary; it can swallow them in one gulp. But the creature making those crowing sounds is a tiger, and a white tiger, one of the ancient mythical beasts and one of the Four Heavenly Spirits. How could it not be afraid? That's a blood pressure that's been ingrained in its bones for generations!
Han Shuying had stolen it from the cave when it was still an egg. For more than two years, it had been fed all sorts of strange things and grown up, but whenever it saw Han Shuying, it would unconsciously submit, even to her son.
However, although the woman in front of him was terrifying, the white tiger inside was obviously hundreds, thousands, and even millions of times more terrifying than her!
When Han Shuying was walking on a country path not far from a stream, and was angry because her pet python Tianbao was afraid of chickens and sheep, a young man in red came gracefully with his light kung fu skills.
Under the hazy moonlit night, the man's long, beautiful hair flowed down like a waterfall. His narrow, almond-shaped eyes were alluring and charming, and the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye was even more enchanting. After seeing the man and the snake, he gracefully dropped back and stopped in front of Han Shuying.
"I wonder what advice you have for the visit of Grand Master Han of Xuanyi Valley?"
The red-dressed man's eyes, which had always been full of allure and allure towards Hua Qingcheng, were now filled with coldness and indifference. He was now facing the woman in a crimson dress with an indifferent expression.
"Han Yichen! Is this how you should treat your mother?"
Seeing the cold face of the man in red, Han Shuying looked hurt.
"mother?"
"hehe……"
The man in red had a cold and aloof smile on his face and looked at Han Shuying with mockery in his eyes.
"Do I have a mother?"
"Are you referring to the woman who abandoned me in Xuanyi Valley right after I was born and has ignored me for seventeen years?"
"Han Yichen!"
Han Shuying raised her hand and clamped the neck of the man in red. She looked at him with sharp eyes and an angry face, but her five slender fingers trembled slightly, and she ultimately did not use any strength.
"Hahaha……"
Han Yichen, dressed in red, had a tear slipped from his eye and said half mockingly and half provocatively:
"Kill me! Don't you regret giving birth to me every day? Kill me, and you can live with that man forever without any obstacles in your way!"
"Snap", it was the sound of Han Shuying raising one of her jade hands and swinging it hard towards Han Yichen's handsome face.
"Foolish. Thinking of you so much, I write this poem with great pain. Lost in the dust, the cold night, the empty branches."
Han Shuying finished reciting a sixteen-character poem with a resentful look in her eyes, and then glared fiercely at her son, who was born to collect debts from her.
"That's right! If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have abandoned me! The thing I, Han Shuying, regret most in my life is giving birth to a bastard like you!"
Han Shuying seemed to be still not satisfied after scolding, and then she swung her hand at Han Yichen. Han Yichen, who was dressed in a red dress, fell to the ground, and a trace of blood immediately flowed from the corner of his mouth.
With tears in his eyes, Han Yichen looked at the woman with a hurt face who gave him life but never hugged him once and never gave him any care and warmth.
"Is that man really that good?"
Even for him, she wished she had never given birth to this son?
"Foolish. Thinking of you so much, I write this poem with great pain. Lost in the dust, the cold night, the empty branches."
Han Shuying was stunned, her eyes were empty and blurry, as if she was recalling the sweet past, as if she was recalling the painful past. She had a man she loved, and if she hadn't been abused and gave birth to this evil child, that man would not have left her.
