Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi stayed in Hexuantang Palace for half an hour before saying goodbye to everyone, and took Xiaoxiao and Dandan to the courtyard where Wu Qianqing lived.
Because Jixi didn't faint again, there was no need to live in the palace anymore, and the children didn't need to be trained again, and Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Yeji also stayed in the palace.
Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi came to the place where the beast cart was parked in the backyard, and the dark guard immediately reported to Hei Xuanyi that the ghost woman was waiting for them in the beast cart. Just shouted: "Hitch."
The hag regained her senses and looked at Wu Ruo, then turned her gaze to Hei Xuanyi who was carrying the child into the car, and asked in a hoarse voice: "I heard what happened in the competition, are the children okay?"
"They're fine." Hei Xuanyi lightly placed the sleeping children on the soft cushion, and covered them with a blanket.
Wu Ruo asked: "Grandmother, are you waiting for us here because you need to find us?"
The hag took a deep breath: "I went back to You's house to visit my parents."
Wu Ruojing listened to her next words.
"I beg them to forgive my years of unfilial piety, and I beg them to agree to let me be with the person I like."
Wu Ruo asked, "Did they agree?"
The hag nodded slightly, weeping with joy, covering her mouth and weeping in a low voice.
Wu Ruo patted her on the shoulder: "Why are you crying? Isn't this a good thing?"
"I'm happy." The hag wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked up at Wu Ruo: "Xiao Ruo, have you already guessed that I am your grandmother?"
Wu Ruo nodded slightly.
The hag smiled bitterly: "Sure enough, I was so stupid that I tried hard to hide this matter, and tried not to recognize my daughter. However, when I gave you the talisman to sell, I should have guessed it would be One day, I was both afraid and hoped that you would reveal my identity."
Although Wu Ruo was sure that the other party was his ancestral line, when she heard her confession, she was still a little startled: "I only guessed when you sold the talisman to me. At that time, I My mother recognized that the talisman you drew was created by my grandfather. She also said that besides my grandfather, there is only one person who knows it. You may be my grandmother. Later, I met You Yanwen and the others a month ago, and learned some things from them, so I am more sure of your identity." "The ghost said nervously: "Does Xiaotong know that I am her mother?
"She always thought her mother was dead, because her father built a grave for you."
The hag clenched her hands in pain, "I always wanted to hide this matter and no longer recognize Guan Zhen, but after being stimulated by your words, I realized that after so many years, I have never let go of it in my heart."
Wu Ruo hooked her lips: "Are you sure what I said is to stimulate you, not the truth?"
"At the beginning, I was really deceived by you. After I calmed down, I realized that you deliberately provoked me. Guan Zhen once said before that people in their clan would not arrange marriages for others indiscriminately. Besides, since Guan Zhen can If he has been single for decades, he will definitely not marry another person in the future, he will always do what he says." When the witch mentioned Guan Zhen, her face was so gentle that it was about to drip.
Wu Ruo frowned and asked: "If I didn't lie to you, and you weren't provoked, are you planning to not recognize each other and let your grandfather guard you for the rest of your life?"
"I..." The hag covered her face sadly: "Of course I want to be with him, but you also know the situation in the Necromancer Kingdom, it is impossible for me to leave the Necromancer Kingdom with him, and he can't stay here, or he will be killed by the old man." Clan people chased and killed them, back then..."
Thinking of what happened back then, she clenched her fists and her eyes were full of hatred: "Because of the old clan's opposition, many people from our family died."
Hei Xuanyi squinted his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Back then, my parents agreed to my marriage with Guan Zhen, and my parents were very satisfied with Guan Zhen as a son-in-law. We even chose the date of marriage. However, people from the old clan did not know where they learned that Guan Zhen was from the Hermit clan. People, they were worried that our marriage would break the spell of the Necromancer and prevent us from getting married. They sent people to Youjia twice to make trouble and smash things. As a last resort, I left Youjia with Guan Zhen and hid until no one knew us. I thought that this matter would pass quickly. Unexpectedly, when I was about to give birth, people from the old family found me and threatened me with my family’s life to go back when Guan Zhen was out on business. Worried about the safety of my parents, I went back to Youjia with them. Then, they set up a large formation at Youjia to prevent Guan Zhen from sneaking in and took me away from Youjia. It may also be because people from the old clan threatened me with my life Guan Zhen, I haven’t seen him since I returned home, but because of this, I’ve become sick from missing him, my spirit is getting worse day by day, and my body is getting thinner day by day. I ran away, but was discovered by people from the old clan and arrested me." The hag said here, the hatred in her eyes grew stronger: "A few elders from the You family next to us pleaded for me because they felt that the old clan was too ruthless. But I was killed because they said that I might not be able to break the curse when I was with Guan Zhen. After all, I am not a real descendant of immortals. Sunshine. Because of this, the people of the old clan thought that we would go on a rampage due to dissent from our family, forcing relatives and friends to dare not associate with us. At that time, I was stimulated when I saw the elder die in front of me. That night, I Xiaotong was born a month early."
Speaking of her daughter, she had a mother's love on her face: "After I had Xiaotong, I put all my thoughts on her and didn't want to think about running away anymore, but the people of the old clan were still worried and worried about me. I will still stay with Guan Zhen, and send people to guard Youjia every day. My parents are worried that people from the old clan will kill Xiaotong, and they don’t want another tragedy to happen to Youjia, so the two discussed sending the child away. But doing so will definitely let the leader know, so in order to reassure the people of the old clan, I discussed with the leader of the old clan to send the child out, and lied to Guan Zhen that I gave birth to a child prematurely because of longing, and my body became extremely weak. In the end, I couldn’t stand it anymore and passed away. I only found out about this when my parents told me when I returned to You’s home the day before yesterday. Before I saw you and Xiaotong, I always thought my child was dead. My parents lied to me that they threw Guan Zhen's child on the land because they hated Guan Zhen for bringing disaster to Youjia, and let the sun burn the child to ashes. At that time, I didn't know whether Xiaotong could see the light and went crazy As if rushing out of You's house to find the child on land..."
The hag supported her cracked face with trembling hands: "I was burned at that time, and I went crazy because of my daughter's death. Youjia also took the opportunity to help me with the funeral, and lied to Guan Zhen that I was dead. I was indeed crazy, and I couldn't control so much. Later, I mistakenly took the child born to my sister-in-law as Xiaotong, and took him away from Youjia. I didn't wake up until several years later. I once wanted to find Guan Zhen, but I don't know where to find him, and I can't leave the kingdom of the dead, so I live on the eighteenth floor with Panyang. Panyang is the name I gave him, which means the kingdom of the dead. People can see the light of day again, who would have hoped for him..."
She couldn't help crying: "He was always bullied because of his bad brain, and someone behind him took him to the river and drowned him while I was away.
For her, You Panyang is her second child, why doesn't she feel pain in her heart.
Wu Ruo asked in surprise, "He's dead?"
The hag nodded: "Yes, he died, or I buried him with my own hands. The others don't know, they just think he was washed away by the flood."
"The person who took him to the river didn't know he was dead?"
The witch said angrily: "After Pan Yang died, I killed him, so no one knows that Pan Yang is dead."
"Then why do you still treat me as your child?"
"When I rescued you that day, it happened to be Panyang's memorial day. I cried sadly, and my mind was not clear, and you looked similar to Panyang, and you rushed up from the river. At that time, I thought it was you. The God of the River sent Panyang back, and he really regarded you as Panyang. Later, he gradually realized that you are different from Panyang, but you look so much like Panyang, which makes me very reluctant to leave you. I just plan to follow you like this." The hag wiped away her tears: "But I know you are not my child, so I just wanted to leave after you found your family, but I didn't expect to meet Xiaotong."
She took a deep breath: "If there is a person in the world who is similar to me and my family, it's nothing, but I have to doubt that there are two people who are similar to me and my family, and Xiaotong's name It was precisely when Guan Zhen and I were thinking about the name early in the morning that we became more and more sure that she might be my daughter, and then we made the act of peeking at her taking a bath. Then you found out, because I didn’t dare to recognize my daughter, I was also afraid that my daughter would not recognize me, so I lied to you that my niece was lost, that she had a birthmark on her back, but I really wanted to know if there was a mole on Xiaotong's waist."
The hag calmed down and continued: "You know what happened next, after hearing what you said two days ago, I went back to meet my parents, hoping they would agree to me being with Guan Zhen again. My parents also hoped that I could be happy with Guan Zhen and my daughter’s family, so they didn’t embarrass me, and they told me about the things they lied to me back then.”
She held Wu Ruo's hand: "The matter between you and the prince will probably make the old family find you again, so part of the reason I went back to see them is to take my parents and them away from Youjia together." , but my parents don't want to go with me."
Hei Xuanyi said: "I will send someone to protect them."
"Thank you." The hag wasn't polite to him, because she came here because she wanted Hei Xuanyi to send someone to protect his family.
