The reborn daughter seeks marriage

Chapter 212 The Pain of Separation
"It's a pity that the eldest brother is not here, otherwise, he must be so happy." Mu Qiyue said in a low voice, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.It's been so long, why hasn't the eldest brother sent someone over? Could something have happened?

Her thoughts were written all over her face, how could Mrs. Mu not see it, her eyes dimmed slightly, why didn't she hope that her son would come back soon, and the family would share the happiness of family.The most painful thing is Wu'er. After waiting for so long, she gave birth to a child in this Zhuangzi. In her heart, it is probably the most difficult.

"Don't mention these things in front of your sister-in-law, you know?" Madam Mu warned her daughter.Mu Qiyue nodded, she was not an idiot, and she couldn't bear to make her sister-in-law even more sad.

No matter what, the joy of the grandson's birth made Mrs. Mu temporarily forget the pain of missing her son.However, I know that if the daughter-in-law wakes up, the first thing she must do is to see the baby.She also stayed by Chuwu's bed, teasing the child.It's a pity that there is no nanny, but fortunately, the child is very good, not crying, seems to be asleep.

At this moment, a servant girl hurried in and shouted in surprise: "Madam, the people sent by the young master are here! They are here to pick us up!"

"really?"

Mu Qiyue stood up happily, and ran out quickly. Is the eldest brother finally coming to pick them up and leave here?Has the war outside subsided and they can finally go home?
After leaving the baby in the care of Mother Liu, Mrs. Mu tidied up her clothes and walked out, the excitement in her eyes could not be concealed.After waiting in this remote Zhuangzi for more than half a year, I finally got news of my son. When Feng'er sees this child, he will be even happier!

This is really double happiness!
When Mu Qiyue ran to the gate, but found that the man who appeared beside the carriage outside was actually Han Qingmu, she couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.How could it be him?
His heart jumped up. Compared with the unrestrained and unrestrained him before, Han Qingmu now has a more mature man's taste, and there are even some beards at the corners of his mouth.Seeing Mu Qiyue, Han Qingmu immediately showed a smiling face, her face turned red suddenly, and she stood there awkwardly, not daring to go forward.

On the contrary, Han Qingmu strode over, looking at the little girl who had hardly changed in front of him, a soft light appeared in his eyes.But immediately, there was another gloomy moment.However, he quickly returned to normal and seemed to have no flaws.

"Yue'er, I'll take you home!"

Han Qingmu's words made Mu Qiyue look up from her shyness, and asked, "Why are you here to take us out of here, where is my elder brother?"

"I hurried over here, Yue'er, are you sure you won't let me in and just stand outside like this?" Han Qingmu smiled and avoided answering her.

Only then did Mu Qiyue realize that her behavior was indeed a bit impolite, she lowered her head embarrassedly, stepped out of the way, and whispered: "Let's go in, mother must be waiting too!"

As expected, Mrs. Mu was already waiting in the lobby, and she was very familiar with Han Qingmu, after all, she was a child who had been very close to her son since she was a child.

"Auntie, are you okay? My nephew is late, please forgive me!" Seeing Mrs. Mu, Han Qingmu bowed and said, Mrs. Mu quickly stood up and helped him up.

"Qing Mu, you child, why are you so polite! You are here, and the aunt is too happy! Why are you alone? Where is Feng'er? His wife just gave birth to Feng'er, and she gave birth to a big fat boy. All of a sudden, our family is finally complete!"

Sure enough, when Mrs. Mu opened her mouth, she was talking about Mu Qifeng, who had been gone for half a year. Of course, they hoped that Mu Qifeng would pick them up in person.

"Did my sister-in-law give birth? That's great! Auntie, let me congratulate you first!" Hearing Madam Mu's words, Han Qingmu also showed a surprised and happy expression.He asked, "How is sister-in-law now? Can I see the child?"

When asked about her grandson, Madam Mu was naturally happy, and immediately ordered Mother Liu to take the child out.With such an interruption, she almost forgot that Han Qingmu hadn't answered her question yet.I didn't see that strange look of relief in Han Qingmu's eyes either.However, after the greetings were over and the child also watched, Mrs. Mu still asked that question.

"Why didn't the wind come? But what's delayed?"

"That's right, Auntie, the war has just subsided, and there are still many trivial matters in the court that have not settled down. Qi Feng really couldn't leave, so he asked me to come and take you all back!" Han Qingmu nodded and replied.

"Really? So what's the result of this war?" Madam Mu asked doubtfully, relieved a little.

"Naturally, the prince won. The former crown prince tried to usurp the throne and poisoned His Majesty to death. This is a serious crime of beheading, and it is unacceptable to heaven!"

"Then, in the Great Qi Kingdom from now on, could it be that the prince will be the emperor?" He hesitated. Although the prince of Qingyang is also a member of the royal family, his name is not justified, not to mention that the former emperor has other sons. Why can't he be a prince?

"The prince quelled the rebellion and benefited the common people. It is the destiny of heaven to ascend the throne as the emperor. In a few days, the enthronement ceremony will be held, and His Majesty has invited the Houfu to participate."

"Hou Mansion? We are no longer a Hou Mansion!" Madam Mu shook her head and said with some self-mockery.She doesn't care who becomes the emperor, but she also knows that Feng'er has always been on good terms with Prince Qingyang, if he wins, Feng'er will naturally feel better.

"Auntie, Qifeng has made great contributions. The title of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion is naturally back. I heard His Majesty intends to let the title of the Marquis Mansion be hereditary! So, you old man, just wait and enjoy the blessing!" Han Qingmu Smiling, but a flash of dodge flashed in his eyes.

"It's just that I didn't expect my sister-in-law to give birth. Can she ride in a carriage with her current body?" Han Qingmu said slowly, with a look of worry in his eyes.After hearing his words, Mrs. Mu was also stunned.Yes, she was in a hurry to go home, but she forgot that her daughter-in-law is now weak and the carriage is bumpy, can her body bear it?
"Mom, I can do it!" A voice that was still a little weak sounded, but it was firm.Madam Mu raised her head and saw Chu Wu walking out with the help of the maid, she was in a hurry.

"Silly boy, what are you doing out here? You just gave birth, so you can't see the wind, otherwise what would you do if you broke down? Get in quickly!"

"No, mother, I know my own body. I want to go back, I want to see my husband, mother, I believe you have the same thoughts in your heart as I do. I can't wait to see him right away! Mother, you agree me!"

Chu Wu opened her mouth, her tone choked with sobs, Madam Mu's heart softened, and she couldn't help holding her in her arms.

"Okay, let's go right away and go home right away!"

After ordering the maids to pack their things, Mrs. Mu, Mu Qiyue, and Chu Wu got into Han Qingmu's car and drove towards Shengjing.Everyone's faces were full of excitement and joy, but Han Qingmu, who was sitting on the driver's seat, sighed softly, with a look of pain in his eyes.He didn't know how to speak, but he couldn't be cruel enough to break the expectant smiles on the three faces.

My heart is filled with a strong sense of guilt, that's all, when I arrive at the Hou Mansion, if I can delay it for a day, it must be a day!

Zhuangzi was still some distance away from Shengjing, and when it was almost dark, he slowly drove into Shengjing City.Different from the bustling scene before leaving, the scattered debris on the streets and the few people coming and going fully demonstrated the harm this war has brought to Shengjing.The gate of the Hou Mansion was still the same as before, there was nothing unusual, but the gate was open, and a few familiar guards and servants stood there, everything seemed so familiar and friendly.

But why without him?Since Han Qingmu was sent to pick them up, he should have been anxiously waiting for their return at the door, right?

At that moment, Chu Wu had a bad premonition in her heart.She always felt oppressed, and felt that all this was too unreal, and the closer she was to the Hou's mansion, the more frightened she felt.This bad premonition amplified even more when he arrived at the Hou's mansion and saw everything empty inside.
