Step on a branch

Chapter 250 Identification
At the city gate, it was extremely lively.

Cars, horses and people flow in and out in an orderly manner.

The guards stood with their guns in different expressions.

After all, it was noon, and although the city gate could shade the sun, it couldn't stop the drowsiness. With the spears on the ground as a support, several guards were already too sleepy to keep their eyes open.

There are also people who are more energetic, and their eyes are scanning, but they are just scanning.

As long as you don't look like a villain and look like a villain, you generally don't interrogate.

Not to mention those expensive carriages.

Dingguo's carriage went smoothly.

Hold down the speed, go out along the flow of people, connect to the official road outside the city, pedestrians give way to both sides, leaving a middle for carriages and horses, and the speed gradually increases.

In the car, the old lady calmed down a bit.

Opening the curtain, looking left and right, the old lady told the handlebars and said: "Don't go to meditate for now, go around north and go to Lizizhuang."

The handlebar type should be lowered naturally.

The old lady lowered the curtain of the car and looked at Qiaoyu who was hesitating to speak beside her.

Qiaoyu was full of doubts.

The old lady treats her kindly, and she can sense the old lady's emotions very well.

Before leaving the city gate, Qiaoyu clearly felt that the old lady was tense.

It's not panic or fear, nor can it be simply said to be nervous, but cautious and focused.

If you want to describe it, the former is a frightened rabbit, while the latter is a cat waiting for an opportunity.

Just going to the temple to participate in the religious ceremony, why is this so?

Yes.

Indeed, instead of going to Guanzhong, the old lady made the handlebars divert.

why?
doing what?
Qiaoyu was full of doubts.

But before the old lady went out, she told her not to think so much...

The old lady's hand landed on the back of Qiaoyu's folded hands on her knees, with a gentle smile: "The ebony box in the jewelry box next to my bed, have you taken it?"

Qiaoyu nodded.

The old lady explained the price, so she will not forget it.

"Do you know what's inside?" the old lady asked again.

Now, Qiaoyu shook her head.

She didn't open it and looked at it, she only guessed it was jewelry or something, and she was also curious about why she had to bring jewelry when she went to the Taoist temple.

Now, the problem has changed.

The old lady was going to a place she didn't know, and it seemed as if she would not return to Beijing for a long time, or in other words, the house seemed to be abandoned together.

What he didn't want to give up was the violin and the contents of the box that Duke Xianding left behind.

As a maid, Qiaoyu knows that the old lady has a lot of precious jewelry.

After being widowed, she didn't wear those anymore, and Madam Liang put them all in the warehouse.

Every year when the sun is good, Liang Nanny will take it out to wipe and do maintenance, so that Qiaoyu will have a chance to watch it.

None of those good things were brought this time.

The old lady untied the bundle, took out the box, and opened it.

Qiaoyu couldn't help being startled when she saw it.

There was a thick stack of banknotes.

Then follow the position of the old lady's finger and take a closer look, Qiaoyu doesn't recognize the name of the owner of the bank note at all.

The old lady turned over gently.

The names are different, Guang Qiaoyu saw five or six different people.

Putting away all the things again, the old lady held Qiaoyu's hand and said softly to her: "In the past few days, the world will be turned upside down.

A long time ago, the eldest princess was making various preparations.

After making up my mind, I certainly wouldn't hesitate to hold him back.

Compared with land deeds that cannot be converted into cash, bank notes are more suitable for me.

The voters are all credible, and when it is time to use the silver, they can be exchanged.

I've been waiting for this day, but it came sooner than expected..."

Qiaoyu asked lightly: "Eldest Princess and Grand Duke, both know what you are going to do?"

"Of course I know," the old lady laughed, "to Lizizhuang, you will pass a small village on the way, and there is a cracked stone pier at the door."

When Qiaoyu heard this, she said: "Your maidservant knows where it is. When you went out before, you pointed it out to your maidservant and said that this family is interesting. Just leave the cracked pier like this."

"Yes," the old lady said, "just remember, we will get off at Zhuangzi."

Qiaoyu's heart beat a beat faster.

Her hunch was right, she thought.

The old lady had indeed made preparations in advance, and she even quietly asked her to remember the location of the little Zhuangzi, so that she could find the place even if there was only one person.

Qiaoyu asked: "You went out, where are the other things in Beijing? When you come back, are you still there?"

"Who knows, maybe there are none." The old lady sighed.

Once all of them left, the emperor would be furious. Without waiting for Nianzhi to move his troops to the east, he would be charged with treason, and ransacking his home would be inevitable.

There are too many memories in that house, and there are too many things that cannot be moved, so we can only stay there.

Wait until Nianzhi returns to the capital, and see how much he can find.

"You must be very reluctant, right?" Qiaoyu saw a trace of sadness from the old lady's eyebrows.

"Reluctance," the old lady said frankly, she hugged Qiaoyu in her arms, "Fortunately, I will bring all the things I am most reluctant to part with."

Qiaoyu leaned against the old lady, and her eyes fell on the piano.

The old lady patted Qiaoyu's back softly.

In life, there are always many unsatisfactory things, and there are also many trade-offs.

It was a helpless move to send away her newborn daughter back then, and she understood the reason very well.

However, as a mother, she feels extremely guilty towards her daughter.

The struggle and strife between the elders was finally borne by the unsuspecting children.

This time, she will not let go of her daughter's hand.

It is true that it would be safer for Qiaoyu to leave.

There are so many people the emperor wants to arrest, there is no time to worry about a little maid who disappeared without a trace.

After they return to Beijing, she will pick up Qiaoyu again, that's all.

Recognizing her daughter, with a light word, as long as the old lady speaks, Qiaoyu will become a big girl in the Duke's mansion from a young maid.

However, being a mother requires not only identity, but also recognition.

In Qiaoyu's growth, there was no such father as Lin Xuan.

After returning home, the old lady did not play the role of mother in front of Qiaoyu.

20 years of life experience will be completely overturned one day, how can Qiaoyu recognize herself?

What the old lady wanted was to take Qiaoyu and slowly tell her the story of the past twenty years, and let her see with her own eyes the place where her biological father fought.

She had to let her wandering life take root and fall to the ground, and Qiaoyu had to be proud of her father and daughter of the Lin family from the bottom of her heart.

A long time ago, the old lady vaguely had such an idea in her heart.

It was Miss Qin who really made this idea clear.

Relying on Miss Qin's technique, Nianzhi sees the old scene.

The two fathers chatted happily while the two mothers laughed and talked about Yan Yan. There were only two scenes, but it took a long time for Nianzhi to get to know them.

In words, the longing for unborn children made Nianzhi accept them from the bottom of his heart.

That's why, before he went out to battle, he sat there and tied the red tassel of the small wooden spear to the long spear with his own hands.

That is the recognition of identity.

The old lady deeply remembered that scene.

She wants to bring this kind of recognition to Qiaoyu, and to her daughter who has no chance to meet her biological father.

　Thank you book friend Miss Onion. , Today, I will also work hard to reward Wow Xiaoyao.
