Chapter 258 Discovering her secret

 Under the peach tree in the courtyard, a woman in luxurious clothes stood near the door. He raised his eyes, and when he saw her, his eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.

"You're here for school!" She waved her hand at Xia Qianqian and motioned for her to come over.

Xia Qianqian's expression softened, and she took a few steps forward. Fu Yifu said, "The student has met the dean."

Xi Yalan's hand held her wrist and his eyes were glued to the side of her face, "You're welcome. You saved my family's lives and you owe me a favor. When you see me in the future, you don't have to be polite and just call me madam, okay?"

"This..." This seems to be a bit against the rules in the academy.

But for some reason, she always felt particularly kind to the woman in front of her.

"Okay!" She agreed obediently.

Xi Yalan took her hand and invited her warmly: "Come and sit at my place."

Her tone was particularly soft, which was completely different from when she spoke to Zhu Zirong that day.

"Okay!"

She agreed wholeheartedly.

The lady in front of me has a gentle temper. When she speaks, her eyes always stare at her face gently.

Xia Qianqian actually likes chatting with her.

She is also an older woman, but in front of Li Yuniang, she looks like an older person. No matter what happens at home or outside, she needs to take care of everything.

She is Li Yuniang’s heaven and her Optimus Prime.

But Xi Yalan was different. When she looked at her, Xia Qianqian felt that she was still an ignorant child and a girl who needed to be taken care of.

Being held by the hand, Xia Qianqian followed Xi Yalan to the side room in the small courtyard, where they sat around the table.

When Grandma Rong saw her, she was also very enthusiastic and hurriedly took out a few plates of pastries from the cabinet on the side and placed them on the table.

Walnut cake, honey cake, candied fruit... and a cup of green tea.

All are things she likes.

"This..." Xia Qianqian was surprised.

Xi Yalan smiled and said, "Don't be offended. There are not many guests in my house. I don't know what the girl's family likes. So I specifically asked Mr. Mo about your preferences."

"Madam, thank you for your trouble." Xia Qianqian was a little embarrassed.

"I've been in class for a long time. I'm afraid I'm hungry. Eat quickly." Xi Yalan pushed the cup towards Xia Qianqian's hand and drank something first.

Xia Qianqian smiled and reached out to take the tea cup, but she forgot that the tip of her finger was just burned and her skin was delicate, and her finger tip just touched the cup.

"Ah!" She whispered in pain, her hand suddenly shrank, and she accidentally knocked over the teacup.

A cup of tea accidentally fell on the sleeve handkerchief on her right wrist.

Xia Qianqian shook off her right hand anxiously.

"How's it going?" Xi Yalan anxiously grabbed her wrist to check the situation, stretched out her hand to touch the sleeve handkerchief, it was all wet, "Quick, the water is a bit hot, take it off."

"No need!" Xia Qianqian held her sleeve handkerchief with her left hand and squeezed out some of the water: "I was not careful."

Xi Yalan looked worried and worried: "I'm not afraid of the child, it's just a cup of tea. I'm afraid of scalding you."

As she spoke, she reached out and tried to take off the sleeve handkerchief at her wrist.

Xia Qianqian wanted to refuse, but her eyes were full of worry, and she blamed herself, "It's my fault. Your hand is injured and hasn't healed yet. I should have asked you to wait for a while before drinking."

Xi Yalan's hand gently removed the sleeve handkerchief between her wrists. When she wanted to check the injury on her wrists, a bright red butterfly-shaped mark suddenly burned her eyes.

"You..." She clearly wanted to speak.

But my throat felt like it was stuffed with a ball of cotton. When I opened my mouth, I couldn't make any sound.

Her hand hesitantly touched the butterfly-shaped mark, once, twice...

Unconsciously, a layer of white mist filled her eyes, blurring her vision.

She was startled, and she blinked hard, and a large stream of tears rolled down her eyes, and her eyes regained clarity.

It's a butterfly-shaped mark.

It's her Xian'er's mark.

She suddenly remembered that when they first met, she squatted in front of Xian'er and put down the candy cake she made by herself.

She always felt that the person in front of her was destined to be her, but she never expected that she would be her fairy.

"This is on your wrist..." She finally asked, but her voice changed its tone due to her excitement.

Xia Qianqian did not expect that the lady in front of her would be so excited when she saw the mark on her wrist.

The last person who was excited when he saw the mark on her wrist was Hu Tang.

Based on the mark on her wrist, he identified her as his best friend, the Jade-Faced Immortal.

Is it possible that Mrs. Xi also knows the Jade-Faced Immortal?

Xia Qianqian's heart trembled, and she silently covered the butterfly-shaped birthmark with her left hand, "This is a birthmark caused by urination. My friends thought she was ugly, so I covered it with a sleeve handkerchief."

"How can it be ugly?"

Xi Yalan's hand holding her wrist trembled slightly, "This is the best thing in the world, my child..."

She almost blurted out some words.

But reason returned to her in an instant, and she suppressed the excitement in her heart. She raised her sleeves to wet her eyes with tears, "I think it's beautiful."

It looks good, and you won’t lose your composure like this?

Xia Qianqian pulled her sleeves up to cover the mark, "Whether it looks good or not, it was given by my mother. I don't want to make Madam uncomfortable."

"I don't feel bad!"

Xi Yalan put away her emotions and forced a forced smile, "Your mother must be an amazing person."

"Yeah!"

Xia Qianqian sat down properly and echoed: "Three years ago, there was a battle between the soldiers and the bandits on the river. My father helped row the boat, and there has been no news since. My mother washed clothes for our siblings to support the family. It is true that

It’s a lot of hard work.”

"Then I..." I will visit her tomorrow.

Xi Yalan really wants to see Xia Qianqian's mother immediately and confirm something to her in person.

But she was so afraid of losing that she was a little timid, "When will your shop open? You said that your mother will come then. She has raised you so well, I really want to meet her."

"Three days later!"

Xia Qianqian saw that the mood of the person in front of her returned to normal. She knew that she had been emotionally unstable due to the loss of her daughter, so she didn't care.

"Okay, if she comes, I'll invite her to come to my Immortal Academy to sit and chat." Xi Yalan took the initiative to invite her.

Xia Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "My mother is timid, and I'm afraid she will be very restrained when she meets Madam."

"I don't look hateful, could it be possible that I would eat her?"

This tone sounds a little sad.

Xia Qianqian didn't know why, so she stood up and said, "Madam, I have something else to do, so I need to take a step first."

"Wait a minute, I didn't drink the tea or eat the cakes."

Xi Yalan was even more at a loss, and then she coaxed a child, "Come and sit down. How can I feel at ease if you leave like this?"

Aunt Rong on the side brought another cup of tea at the right time and handed it to her hand.

Looking down at the emerald green soup in the teacup, Xia Qianqian carefully picked it up and took a sip, "It's so delicious!"

She felt sincerely.

When Xi Yalan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh again, "Quick, try the pastries here."

Faced with her enthusiasm, Xia Qianqian could not refuse. Under her eager gaze, she drank a cup of tea and ate two cakes.

Before leaving, Xi Yalan handed a pastry box to her hand, "Take these back and let your mother and brother have a taste."

"Thank you, madam." Xia Qianqian took the box, a little embarrassed, and turned around to leave.
