Huo Xiyuan had not slept soundly, and was startled by this cry and trembled.
Mu Yan hugged her tightly and patted her, frowning.
"Prince."
Mu Yan grabbed an object and flicked it outside. With a bang, it fell from the door again. The person outside was about to ask for instructions, but was frightened by this action and did not dare to say a word.
It's calm again outside.
"Don't you want to go take a look?"
"Raising them for free?"
He pressed Huo Xi into his arms and said, "Go to sleep. We have to travel in the morning." Seeing that Huo Xi had calmed down, Mu Yan gritted his teeth. Even with him by her side, she was still frightened. Those people should all die.
The next day, Huo Xi woke up, washed herself, and asked about what happened last night.
Seeing that Mu Yan was not there, several girls rushed to tell Huo Xi what happened last night...
Huo Xi listened silently for a long time.
"Madam, you didn't see that the woman cried so hard that her throat was bleeding when she saw her daughter. She is so pitiful."
"Yes, when she saw that her daughter was not dead, she cried and laughed. She got up and hugged her daughter and cried her heart out. It really made everyone cry. Her daughter didn't even know that her mother could talk. Seeing her mother
I was so scared even when I opened my mouth. This is so cruel, I didn’t even open my mouth to my own daughter.”
"It's no wonder she doesn't want to see her family. Someone has been sent to her home to notify her. There is a man, a son and a daughter-in-law, but only a daughter came here after climbing mountains and wading through rivers." Everyone shook their heads and sighed.
"It turns out that she is really Han, as Madam expected."
Grandma Ma sighed, "No matter what her own difficulties are, she suffered the pain of being trafficked, and now she is helping to traffic others. This is unforgivable."
"Let's go see her." Huo Xi stood up.
"Where is the cloud?" Mu Yan strode into the house.
"I heard about the story about A Wu and wanted to see her." Huo Xi looked up at him.
Mu Yan took her in his arms and pushed her into the house, "You haven't had breakfast yet, please have breakfast first."
"Aren't you going to send them to the county government next door?"
"I know you want to see her, so let them wait a moment."
"Then let's eat quickly." He sat down at the table.
Mu Yan looked at her helplessly and raised his hand: "Pass the meal around."
In another room, mother and daughter were leaning together, wiping away tears and talking. The door creaked open, and Huo Xi walked in with a few girls.
"Thank you, madam, for letting me finally see my daughter." She kowtowed to Huo Xi.
Huo Xi asked someone to help her up, "I was originally wondering whether your name is A Wu, A Wu, or which one. Is your maiden name Wu?"
The little woman was helped to sit down, while her daughter held onto her mother tightly with a timid look on her face, glanced at Huo Xi quickly, and then lowered her head in fear.
Huo Xi couldn't help but sigh. How could he follow a group of men out of the mountain to see his own mother? "Untie her."
The guard outside came in and untied the woman. "Thank you, madam."
The woman shook her stiff arm, "The little woman's maiden name is Wu, but she has no roots and roots since she entered the village..."
She was originally raised by a good family. She was raised in a boudoir for more than ten years. She married according to her parents' orders and had children. She lived a plain but warm life.
Unexpectedly, she was robbed and sold into the mountains. When she finally escaped, she found that her husband's family had arranged a funeral for her. When she returned to her parents' home, they did not recognize her and said that she was a fake.
She called out...
She had nowhere to go and her wish to die was unsuccessful, so she was rescued by the man who followed to buy her, so she had no choice but to return to the mountains.
He never spoke again.
After the son was born, his grandma took her son away for adoption because she was afraid that she might be alienated. Since childhood, her son only regarded her as a foreigner and was not close to her. Only her daughter regarded her as her biological mother.
"Alan was sick, and his father hired a forbidden woman from the village to jump over the gods for her. She didn't recover, and her illness got worse and worse. The forbidden woman said that her soul had been taken over by someone, and she couldn't be saved, so she had to
Throw her into the mountains so that she won’t harm the family..."
"Forbidden mother-in-law?"
"It's the goddess in the village who can communicate with the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth, connect yin and yang, and cure all diseases."
"Ah? Can all diseases be cured by truly connecting yin and yang?" Dongxue and others were curious.
"If you want to be so awesome, you still need a doctor to do more." Mother Ma scolded her.
"If you don't go see a doctor when you're sick, can you please give me a good treatment?" Mother Ma looked disdainful. If she lived in such a place, she wouldn't survive a day.
"I wanted to ask a doctor for Alan, but in the past twenty years, whenever I left the village, people would follow me. They were afraid that I would run away. So I never left the mountain again. I begged my family to let me take Alan there.
When I went to see a doctor, they said that if I kept Alan at home, it would harm the family and the clan..."
"I kowtowed to the patriarch and offered to work as a cow and horse for his family for ten years in exchange for ten days of delay. When I found the money to buy medicine and come back to save Alan...then the patriarch agreed to my leaving the mountain and introduced me to those people...
…”
"So you started a trafficking business because you wanted to treat your daughter?"
Ah Wu lowered his head, "I'm sorry, madam, I can't help it." This was the first time she had done such a thing, and she was only helping to transfer and escort...
She wanted to save Alan. During her desperate days, only her daughter supported her and survived.
At the back door of the inn, Huo Xi and others watched as the county officers escorted Ah Wu and others away. The girl named Alan followed closely beside Ah Wu.
"Madam, can she survive?"
"Yes. Madam begged the prince to convict her only as an accessory and receive only thirty strokes. For the sake of her daughter, she can endure it with gritted teeth."
"Yes, on the way to exile, with her daughter by her side and the money given by her wife, as long as she is not stupid, she can survive."
"It's okay to leave this place. The mother and daughter are superfluous existences in the village. Maybe they can be reborn in the exile."
"You think, why is this man so cruel to her son? He didn't even give it to him or take a look at it? We have lived together for twenty years, and her son was born through hard work during her ten-month pregnancy. This is too much.
It’s getting colder.”
"I'm afraid that the Crown Prince will punish him. What if the Crown Prince punishes his family for his crimes?"
Several people looked at their backs and sighed.
"So, compared to her, we are much happier."
"No. Even if the madam drives me away, I won't leave!" Vanilla turned around and wanted to express her loyalty to Huo Xi, but she only saw her family's son walking away with his madam in his arms.
"Madam, wait for us!"
Not long after, several carriages slowly drove out from the back door of the inn.
Kunming City, Junjia.
Mr. Jun and several clan elders sat in the hall and did not say a word for a long time. Mu Yan sent someone to quickly deliver Jun Ruoxu's letter, which was delivered to them.
"Everyone, I invite you here because I want you to give me an idea. Our Jun family has lived in Dian for several generations. When Mu Mansion built the city, my Jun family came here to settle down. If it hadn't been
I, Mr. Jun, responded, "How can the Mu family succeed in moving the Han Dynasty into Yunnan? Now, they want to cover up the sky with one hand. They want my son's life at the cost of my son's life! Just rely on the surname Mu?"
Several clan elders remained silent.
Jun Ruoxu's letter was sent by someone sent by the Crown Prince of the Mu family. It contained Guanshi Hua's confession. Word for word, it was clear that he was under Jun Mingzhang's instructions. There was no quibble at all.
By kidnapping the Crown Prince’s wife, he was trying to drag the Jun family into trouble!
