a very dark dark guard

Chapter 162 Denial
She always put on a loving and forbearing demeanor, as if she was afraid that she would frighten me by being too enthusiastic.This look is appropriate for a mother who blames herself and is eager to make amends, but also worried that her child will not accept it.

Even her attitude towards Yunzhou is quite kind, like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the happier she becomes.

And she knew Yun Zhou's true identity.

She felt that I was 'investing', which was a very conscious decision.

Some people think that Yunzhou and I are true love, some people think that I want to do something for him, and no one thinks about 'charity'.

I didn't explain to Mrs. Ying, and the meal was amicable and lively.

After the show ended, she called me into the inner room alone, and said a lot of words of apology, regret, and self-blame.

My attitude was neither repulsive nor moved. I looked at her quietly, and I nodded whatever she said to show that I understood.

She finally sighed and said, "I know this scar can't be healed in a short time, let's take it slowly."

I raised my eyebrows, nodded again, don't bother with her on this matter, let her say what.

Her acting skills are top-notch, and her micro-expressions are well controlled. If I don't have supernatural powers and can read people's emotions, I must believe that she wants to be a good mother.

She took out a jade pendant and handed it to me, saying that it was a token of love between her and 'my' biological father, and it was also a proof that father and daughter would recognize each other in the future.

"Isn't he missing?" I remember Ximen Wuhen saying this.

"I've been looking for him all these years, and I finally found him."

"Oh." I was speechless again, and didn't ask who he was, where he was, and when he met me.

Mrs. Ying is not embarrassed, her smile seems to tolerate all my behavior.

"It's getting late, you go to bed early." I showed no curiosity, showed some courtesy and politeness, and exited her room.

I didn't take that jade pendant, I can't control what Yuanshen thinks, anyway, I don't want to recognize my father.

I used to have both parents, and I really don't want to have another pair.

Wan'er and Xiaojiao are very concerned about whether I succeed in recognizing my relatives, and my attitude shows everything.

They don't know about supernatural powers and time travel, so they, like everyone else, just think that I am unwilling to forgive Mrs. Ying and cannot accept this cruel mother.

Back in the courtyard where I lived, Yunzhou was waiting for me at the door of the room. He was wearing light summer pajamas, and he was still so thin after eating and drinking all summer long.

"Family?" He was holding the children's stick figure album specially given to him by Ben Chengfei.

On the first page of the picture book, there are three characters drawn, children, grown men, and old men. The content is also very simple, 'Daddy's daddy is called grandpa'.

In fact, I suspect that Cheng Fei is also a modern person who has traveled through time. I have tried several times, but I have not gotten the desired result.

He seems to have only awakened modern skills, and he is still an ancient person in other respects.

It's not a big deal that I didn't delve into where his drawing skills came from.

The point is that Yunzhou has benefited a lot from his album.

"No." I'm so proficient that I can guess Yunzhou's thoughts with just one or two words.

He didn't care if I recognized my relatives, he just asked for confirmation.

Getting a negative answer, he stretched out his finger, pointed at himself, and asked again: "Family?"

This time I was silent, and then nodded. He smiled, as if he was relieved, and went back to the room with the album in his arms to read.

Could it be that he was worried that I would leave with my mother and throw him away?
What's going on in his mind can't be figured out with the ability, because he rarely has negative emotions, most of the time he is happy, and the very few times he gets angry is when I am surrounded by people and encounter danger.

At the end of the summer, Ximen Wuhen returns, bringing his own mother, Mrs. Ying.

The members of the Devil's Cult were completely at ease and began to prepare for the autumn planting.

When Ximen Wuhen comes back, Wan'er can no longer take care of Yunzhou.

They haven't seen each other for so long, and in the following days, they get tired of being together almost every day.

Mrs. Ying's attitude towards this daughter-in-law is relatively gentle, but not affectionate.

This made Wan'er very worried, fearing that her future mother-in-law would not like her.

Just maintaining superficial etiquette is not what she wants, she hopes to please her mother-in-law.

Therefore, excluding the time for dating Ximen Wuhen, she also spared three blocks of time in the morning, afternoon and evening to perform in front of her mother-in-law-to-be.

She was born as a maid, and she has a sense of inferiority carved into her bones.

I persuaded her insinuatingly, hoping to have some influence on her ideas, for example, she is no worse than anyone else, and women can also live independent, confident, and attractive lives.

It's just that it has little effect, and this thing has to be cultivated since childhood. Now her three views have been fixed. No matter how different things look on the surface, the essential things have not changed much.

She can be very close to me and talk to me about everything, but in her heart, I am still the wife of her master, the mistress of the house, and she doesn't regard me as a friend.

Many things cannot be forced, and I have no intention of coming to this world to liberate/liberate anything.

If there is a coincidence, it is purely a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.

So Wan'er went to check her favorability in front of Mrs. Ying, but I didn't stop her, but just reminded her to do her best in everything, don't force her.

When Ximen Wuhen came back, not only the disciples of the Devil's Cult felt at ease, but also me. He can move freely with me.

The farming work has gradually stabilized, and everyone knows what they are going to do.

I chose a sunny day and took Yun Zhou and Wen Mian for a private visit.

Wen Mian has recovered a lot, his eyes are no longer dull and dull, now he is full of internal energy and his eyes are bright.

It's just that I lived a closed life in the Devil's Cult since I was a child, and I have little knowledge.

Since he is my apprentice, the master has to take him out for a trip no matter what.

Xiaojiao wanted to follow, so I left her in the inn to continue to be the boss.

Guards Jia and the others also want to follow, I said the goal is too big with too many people.

Yue Nanxiang has been obsessed with practicing martial arts since she was "young", and doesn't want to spend her time on "playing".

Manager Zhang thinks this is very good, they are here to take refuge, and it is best to hide in one place.

With Ximen Wuhen here, Elder Gongsun and the others don't mind where I go or how long I go.

As for my field, I lent it to a few half-grown children. They are orphans in the middle school. They have no talent for martial arts, and they can't find decent jobs. Can have a meal.

I have built an adoption home in the headquarters, and those who are too young are not allowed to come out to work, and those who are over 12 and under 18 can be properly arranged to work.

In this world, in this era, there is no such thing as child labor.

After arranging all the affairs, I took Yun Zhou and Wen Mian and left the Devil's Cult headquarters.

The first stop was a small village about a hundred kilometers away from the headquarters of the Demon Cult.

The boy who stole the leather bag of travel notes is hiding here.

After I entered the village, I asked the old people at the entrance of the village, and I found out that the young man's surname was Yu, and he was an orphan picked up by the old man of Yu's family.

None of the old man's two sons, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter were willing to accept this boy.

Recently, old man Yu has been seriously ill. As long as he goes, the boy will be driven away by that family.

When the villagers mentioned the boy, they felt sympathy and regret.
