Concubine

Chapter 418 The Dusty Past
Everyone in the room was dumbfounded. Seeing that Yang's mother was very embarrassed, Mrs. Han hurriedly said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I'll go and ask Yun'er what's going on."

Liu Ruobing said first: "Let me go, I know why she is."

Han nodded gratefully.

Liu Ruobing handed her son over to the maids Shuang'er and Xue'er, and hurried to the back hall, but couldn't find Song Yuner, so she searched along the way, walked through the moon gate, and entered the back garden, only then did she see Song Yuner leaning against the back garden. On the railing of the living room.

Liu Ruobing walked over: "Yun'er, Master knows that you are doing this for Master...why bother..."

The decision just now was made in front of everyone, especially in front of Yang's mother. If the refusal this time hurts the old lady's face, I am afraid that she will lose her chance to marry Yang Qiuchi again. Of course, Song Yuner knows that This, but she has no choice.

Even so, she was very sad in her heart. At this moment, when she heard Liu Ruobing's soft voice of relief, she suddenly felt sad, threw herself into Liu Ruobing's arms, and began to cry.

Liu Ruobing gently stroked Song Yun'er's beautiful hair, and when she got better, she said, "Yun'er, do you know that what you're doing is actually forcing Master to leave."

Song Yuner was startled, and wiped her tears: "No, Master, if you take the child away, brother Qiuchi will go crazy. I know it. You must not leave again. If you leave, I don't know what brother Qiuchi will do." what come?"

Liu Ruobing said: "Silly boy, don't you know how important you are to Qiuchi? If you refuse to marry him, it will drive him crazy."

"No, it won't, because I have no children with him yet." Song Yuner shook her head and said in tears, "But Master, you and Brother Qiuchi already have a child, and I want to marry him, but you, Master, will never be able to marry him." He's dead, so what about your child? When he grows up, how can he face brother Qiuchi? Father and son are close at hand, but they can't recognize each other? Let him go wherever he goes because he doesn't know who his father is and can't hold his head up. come?"

Song Yun'er was already crying like a tearful person.After hearing this, Liu Ruobing was also stunned.It seems that I and Yang Qiuchi thought too simply, but Song Yuner thought of these things for them.As the so-called bystanders know.

At this moment, they heard a long sigh. The two were startled, and turned their heads to look, and saw Song Zhifu and Han Shi standing beside the moon gate in the back garden in the distance. The sigh just now was precisely Song Zhifu's voice. .

Song Zhifu and Han Shi were worried about their daughter, and after confessing their crimes to Mother Yang, they also searched all the way. At the moon gate in the back garden, they saw Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner talking in the distance. In this quiet back garden, the two The voice was relatively loud, and it came from a distance. Song Zhifu and Han Shi had heard it clearly, and only now did they know that their master and apprentice both fell in love with Yang Qiuchi, and Liu Ruobing's child was Yang Qiuchi's, Song Yuner For the sake of Master, she was unwilling to marry Yang Qiuchi.

Liu Ruobing's shock was no small matter. If the mystery of the child's life experience was spread, she couldn't even imagine the consequences. She felt cold all over her body, trembling slightly, and stayed there.

Of course, Song Yun'er knew the consequences, and felt Liu Ruobing's trembling, so she couldn't help but hold onto Liu Ruobing tightly, for fear that she might not be able to support herself and fall down.Fortunately, it was my parents who heard it.Hope they keep their mouths shut.

Song Yun'er said anxiously: "Father! Mother! You..." But she didn't know how to say this.

Song Zhifu sighed, and said to himself: "Everything is retribution! Now, what am I hiding..." He said loudly: "Yun'er, Ruo Bing, you, follow me, come here Living room, I, I have something to say." Turn around and walk back.

It was strange for Liu Ruobing to hear him call her own name. Now that the matter has been leaked, she can only resign herself to fate.

Song Yun'er hurriedly chased after her: "Father! Listen to my explanation..."

Song Zhifu shook his head: "No, needless to say, father, father understands, you go back with me first, I have something to tell you. When you listen to this, you will understand."

Song Yun'er heard her father say it solemnly, she didn't know what it was, she was also a little curious, and she and Liu Ruobing looked at each other with the same doubts.

The four returned to the living room and sat down.Mother Yang and the others looked dignified after seeing Magistrate Song coming back, for some reason, they didn't speak, and looked at him quietly.

Song Zhifu sighed again, and said slowly: "Yes, there is something I have to say. This matter has been hidden in my heart for many years. If I don't say it again, no, I'm not only sorry for Ruo Bing's mother, but also for you. Ruobing."

When everyone heard it, they looked at each other, not knowing what he was talking about.

"This, this matter has to be started from the beginning," Song Zhifu looked at the ceiling, lost in the memories of the past, recalling the past, her words were not too stuttering, "In the early years, I, I didn't Before I passed the Jinshi examination, a matchmaker proposed a marriage to my parents. Well, the girl was very handsome, well-known in all villages and eight miles, but her family was very poor. The girl's name was Liu Hongyao."

Liu Ruobing trembled slightly, raised her head, and looked at Prefect Song in amazement.

Song Zhifu slowly continued: "After seeing that woman, she was really beautiful, so my parents agreed. Cheng, the second year after we got married, that is, on the eighth day of July in the 11th year of Hongwu, we The wife gave birth to a girl, because, because of a black mole the size of a grain of rice under her right arm, I gave her a nickname, 'Dian Dian'."

Liu Ruobing let out a soft ah, her face turned pale, and she looked at Song Zhifu.

Yang Qiuchi also exclaimed, as if he understood something, he looked at Liu Ruobing.

Song Zhifu didn't look at them, but still raised his head and recalled: "No, I didn't expect that one night that year, there was a fire at home, I ran out with my daughter in my arms, and when I rushed back to save my wife, she was, she was all body. They were all on fire. Although she was rescued, her entire face was burnt. One ear was also burnt."

Hearing this, Liu Ruobing let out another soft ah, and stared at Song Zhifu in a daze.

Song Zhifu continued: "From then on, people in the town called her a ghost, and children would beat her with stones. Later, I passed the Jinshi examination and became an official. My parents said, They forced me to divorce my wife, saying that such an ugly monster would not be able to come out on the stage. I dare not disobey the orders of my parents. Although I feel sorry for my wife, I still wrote it, and wrote a letter of divorce."

Speaking of this, Song Zhifu choked up his words, slowly lowered his head, and continued in a sad voice: "I, my wife cried all night with the divorce papers. I felt very guilty, so I secretly took some money from the tent , wrapped a bag for her, and also gave her the long life lock that I have been carrying since I was a child. Unexpectedly, when I woke up the next day, my wife had already taken my daughter away Yes, the bag of silver was still on the table intact. Only my longevity lock was taken away. Since then, I, I have never seen my wife..."

Liu Ruobing asked with a trembling voice, "You...your longevity lock...what is it like?"

"Yes, it's a small lock made of white jade. Because I belong to Xiaolong, a small snake is engraved on the front of the white jade, and on the back is written 'Buffalo was born at the sixteenth day of the second month of the 16th year of Zhizheng'"

"Ah!" At this moment, Liu Ruobing, Song Yuner, and the Han family all cried out in surprise, and Song Yuner tremblingly said, "Father, isn't this your birth date?"

Song Zhifu nodded: "When I was born, your grandma called a jade craftsman to make it for me. Because I was weak and sick when I was young, your grandpa gave me a nickname, 'Buffalo'. I hope I grow up. You have to be as strong as a buffalo, hehe, I never thought that your father would still be as thin as a monkey at this age."

Liu Ruobing stared at Song Zhifu, slowly took out a small white jade lock from his neck, glanced at it, and said tremblingly: "You...you are my father?"

Song Zhifu nodded, and said to Liu Ruobing with tears in his eyes, "Son, I...I'm sorry for your mother."

This time, not only Song Yun'er and Han Shi exclaimed, but even Mother Yang, Feng Xiaoxue and others also exclaimed.

Only Yang Qiuchi wasn't surprised. In fact, when Prefect Song said that his daughter had a mole the size of a grain of rice, Yang Qiuchi had already guessed that Liu Ruobing was probably Prefect Song's daughter.

Because Yang Qiuchi and Liu Ruobing had seen this black mole the size of a grain of rice on her armpit when they were in the rain.And when Song Zhifu said the shape and engraved characters of the little lock, it was exactly the same as the little jade lock he saw on Liu Ruobing's neck, Yang Qiuchi was sure of it.

He used to wonder why Song Zhifu (Songzhi County at that time) was 60 or [-] years old, while his eldest daughter Song Yuner was only [-] or [-] years old. Now he understands, it turns out that Song Zhifu also has an ex-wife, one because the family is poor , a poor woman who gave birth to a daughter again and was disfigured by the fire.This woman is Liu Ruobing's mother.

When Liu Ruobing's mother and daughter needed him the most, Song Zhifu had to divorce Liu Ruobing's mother under the orders of her parents, and her mother died in a tragic way.

Song Zhifu sighed, thumped his head, and said in pain: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry you two, although I dare not resist my father, but after I went out to be an official, I never married again. My father Mother can’t force me to do anything. More than ten years later, my father died of illness. Before he died, he held my hand and told me that he was sorry and asked me to find your mother. Later, I went to your mother’s hometown to find I only found out after looking for you... Your mother died of illness a few years after returning... You were also taken away by a wandering Taoist girl, and I don't know where you went..."

Hearing this, Liu Ruobing already burst into tears: "That's my master, master taught me martial arts in private, I was five years old at that time, half a year later, my mother was seriously ill, and when she was dying, she took this The longevity lock was taken off and hung around my neck, and I kept saying 'little bit'... 'little bit'..., 'buffalo'...'buffalo'... until she died..."

"Ah~!" Song Zhifu sighed, with tears streaming down his face, "At that time, you came to me to ask, to take Yun'er as a disciple, did your mother tell you?"

Liu Ruobing shook her head, sobbing and said: "No, it was my master who told me before he died that your daughter is very talented, let me take a look, if it works, she will accept her as an apprentice, so that our school of martial arts can be passed down It must be that my master told me to come to you after knowing the truth from my mother, but he was afraid that you would deny it. So he didn’t tell me the whole truth.”

Song Zhifu nodded: "No wonder... that year when you said you wanted to take Yun'er as an apprentice, I knew as soon as I saw you that you must be my daughter 'Diandian'——you look exactly like your mother..."

Liu Ruobing raised her tearful eyes and asked in tears, "Then why don't you recognize me?"

"I dare not..." Magistrate Song lowered his head, "I, I'm sorry for your mother, your martial arts are so high... I thought it was your mother who asked you to come to seek revenge on me. I was afraid that you would kill me and hurt me. Yun'er and the others... Now, if I don't say anything, if I tell you about this, it will hurt you to go the way your mother walked back then, and it will also hurt Yun'er. I, I can't make the same mistake again...Okay, Son, if you want to avenge your mother, do it. I did that wrong, I should have died a long time ago, I just ask you to spare your Aunt Han and their mother and daughter..."

After Song Zhifu finished speaking, he closed his eyes and waited for death.
