into the bosom

Chapter 183 Showdown
"Ma'am, don't think too much. Since we are a mother and daughter, how can there be any knots that cannot be untied? Wait until tomorrow, and tell the lady what I said, and she will understand the lady. The lady should go down and rest first, take care of your body! "Qin Niang persuaded again.

Mrs. Zhao's gaze never left Xu Jiao, she shook her head again and said, "No! I want to guard her here, you go and watch! After so much effort, I can't let it fall by the wayside. You have suffered this crime in vain."

"Yes!" Seeing that she couldn't be persuaded, Qin Niang had no choice but to stop, she answered, bowed her knees and saluted, then turned and walked out.

It was late at night, and there were no human voices in the whole Zhuangzi. In late autumn, even the birds, beasts, and insects were silent, and everything was silent. Only the thin wind whistled, bringing the chill.

Qin Niang tightened her skirt, turned her head to the other side of the yard, towards Xu Jiao's wing.Unexpectedly, she felt the shadow of the tree beside her shake. As soon as she stopped, she yelled "Who" in a panic, and a gust of wind swept behind her, followed by a pain in the back of her neck, and her eyes darkened. I don't know anymore.

When she woke up again, her hands and feet were tied, and she was firmly tied to an old chair with a hemp rope, and she was in a room, with only a candle lit in the corner, unconscious. It was dark, and the room was full of sundries, no one knew where.

"Qin Niang is awake? Are you thirsty? Do you want a glass of water?" At this moment, a voice came from behind, and Qin Niang was horrified when she heard it.

Seeing the person walking around from behind her with a teacup in his hand, his expression changed drastically as if he had seen a ghost, "Lengxue, why are you here?"

"Qin Niang, don't get excited, what you want to know, you will know in a while. Do you really not drink water?" Negative snow handed over the teacup.

At this moment, Qinniang was not interested in drinking water, her eyes were wide open and she stared at Xuexue, she couldn't tell how many thoughts she had turned.

Seeing that she didn't drink, Negative Xue picked up the teacup and drank the tea in a slow manner.

But Qin Niang couldn't bear such suffering, she gritted her teeth and scolded, "What do you mean, what do you want to do?"

"Mrs. Qin, don't worry. I just got the order from the princess to invite Mrs. Qin to meet an old friend. Mrs. Qin couldn't have expected to see her old friend, so she couldn't wait, right?" , finally drank the cup of tea, and then looked at Qin Niang, and said in a flat voice.

"Princess?" Qin Niang's complexion was even more ugly.

Negative Xue raised her hand and lightly tapped it twice.There was a sudden sound of footsteps from behind, and a person walked slowly around to Qinniang.

When Qin Niang looked at the man, her face turned ashen for a moment, but the man smiled at her and pulled the corner of his lips, "Long time no see, Qin Niang."

The candle on the table "cracked" and burst out a flower, which woke Mrs. Zhao who was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. She looked at Xu Jiao who was still asleep and motionless, and then turned her head to look at Outside the window, the night outside is still dark, and I don't know what time it is.She didn't know how long she was in a daze, but it was obvious that Qin Niang had been away for a long time.

Mrs. Zhao frowned, stood up, and was about to walk away.

"Mother." A faint call came from behind.

Madam Zhao turned her head and saw that Xu Jiao on the bed had opened her eyes, she couldn't help laughing, she leaned forward and said, "I'm awake, do you feel any discomfort?"

Xu Jiao didn't respond, a pair of black and white eyes fixedly looked at Mrs. Zhao, as clear as water, but seemed to penetrate people's hearts.

The smile on Mrs. Zhao's face disappeared inch by inch under the gaze of these eyes.

After a while, Mrs. Zhao's complexion changed slightly, "When did you wake up? Or did you actually wake up all the time?"

"I've been in a daze all this time, but just now I'm gradually waking up, and I've thought about a lot of things." Xu Jiao said calmly.

"It seems that you should have a lot of questions you want to ask me." Mrs. Zhao also calmed down, brushed her skirt, and sat down on the chair just now.

Xu Jiao looked at her, but her expression was a bit complicated, "There are many questions, but it seems that my mother has answered them for me just now."

Mrs. Zhao's eyes moved slightly, "Did you hear it just now?"

Xu Jiao raised his hand and took Mrs. Zhao's cold hand, "Mother, if you treat me as your daughter, I will be your daughter for the rest of my life."

"As expected, you heard everything." Mrs. Zhao waved her hand away, her already thin face looked a little pale because of not sleeping all night, her deep sunken eyes stared at Xu Jiao, her softness was no longer there, she instantly And like a hedgehog, it erected the spines all over its body to be on guard. "Since I heard it, don't you have anything to ask me?" Madam Zhao looked at Xu Jiao suspiciously with a cold voice.

At this moment, a series of footsteps suddenly came from outside the house, from far to near.

Mrs. Zhao turned her head and saw Qin Niang who came in first, before she breathed a sigh of relief, she felt that something was wrong with her expression. When she saw the two people who walked in behind her, Mrs. Zhao's face suddenly changed, " Banlan, how could you... bear the snow, you!"

Mrs. Zhao looked at Lingxue, her eyes almost tearing open. Although she didn't say the words behind her, the meaning was clearly on her face-you actually betrayed me?
"Mother, Negative Xue didn't betray you. Because Negative Xue was mine from the beginning." Xu Jiao sat up from the bed, speaking in a calm tone.

Mrs. Zhao suddenly turned her head and looked at her in surprise, "What do you mean it was your person from the beginning?"

Xu Jiao didn't answer, but raised her head and looked back at her quietly.

Mrs. Zhao stared at her, her expression changed a few times, the mist in her eyes finally dissipated slowly and turned clear, but she carried more disbelief, "So, you have been deceiving people from the beginning, you have no Breaking your head, you always knew that you were not my daughter, you always knew who you were, and you, have been lying to me?"

"I'm sorry, mother. I lied to you, but at that time, I had no other choice." Xu Jiao didn't make any further explanations.

"Who the hell are you?" Mrs. Zhao didn't bother, after all, they were deceiving each other, so who could blame each other?

"I can't say that." Xu Jiao shook his head slowly, "However, as long as mother is willing, I can be your daughter forever." Xu Jiao still said this sentence, speaking with sincerity.She was heartbroken. When she realized that Mrs. Zhao had chosen to sacrifice her for revenge, but no matter how much resentment was at the last moment, Mrs. Zhao changed her mind and replaced her again. After hearing Mrs. Zhao's confession to Qinniang, the smoke disappeared.

In front of her was just a pitiful and pitiful woman, and she truly regarded her as her mother.This woman treats her the same way.The love between mother and daughter has nothing to do with blood, and I don't know when it started. After several months of growth, it has become entangled like vines and inseparable.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao smiled, "Daughter? Then do you know what I was thinking when I decided to make you my daughter?"
