C140 (2/2)

Time flew by, the scorching heat was approaching, and in June, Xiaowan suddenly remembered that his birthday had passed. The person last year had said that he would spend his birthday together with her forever, and he left her, there really wasn't a need to have his birthday anymore.

Naturally, when Ling Chaofeng came, the Xiaowan felt it too, but the sun was too hot, Ling Chaofeng's immortal soul would be burnt to death. He hurriedly came to see the Xiaowan, and then, he left.

But this summer, Xiaowan did not stay idle. When Ershan wanted to study, she and Little Pei took Little Pei on a stroll in the towns near the capital, whether it was a day or two, or four to five days.

She would accompany Little Pei to play everyday and teach him to recite the Three Character Classic. Little Pei had memorized the knowledge of these mortals since he was born, but he still learned from his mother to please her.

After teaching the Three Character Classic, after teaching the Thousand Character Classic, summer passed.

In the beginning of August, Baisha Town sent over Uncle Biao's handmade mooncakes, the Xiaowan sent some to the inn's owner and the escort team. After Little Pei finished eating the rest of the mooncakes, the examination finally began.

After a few days of examination, Lian Yi had finally finished. Lian Yi brought Little Pei to wait for Ershan, while the Xiaowan stayed by herself at the inn. She quietly packed all the things she had with her, and after tonight, she would leave.

Originally, Xiaowan should have waited with Lian Yi for another month, but when she returned to her Baisha Town, she might even be able to catch up to Susu's delivery. It had been hard for Susu to not be by her side during these past few days, so she truly let her down.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew into the guest room. As matters stood, Xiaowan was no longer in a daze.

Ling Chaofeng was very nervous every time, and every time he thought that Xiaowan could really see him. In reality, Xiaowan could not see anything, but their hearts could sense each other.

Almost every night, she would sit at the window and watch the imperial palace. Ling Chaofeng would ”look at her” every single day, and he had thought that he could protect the Xiaowan and watch her slowly rouse himself before Ershan participated in the examination.

Perhaps, in the eyes of others, Mu Xiaowan was already able to stand up for herself and take care of everyone. As long as it was a wife in Ling Chaofeng's eyes, her heart was full of holes.

”Late.”

”Hubby.” Xiaowan acted as if she could hear him, and continued, but she was only mumbling to herself, and said, ”I'm going home, back to Baisha Town, I know, I might only be able to see you in the capital, but I can't leave my family behind. I want to go back and take a look at Susu, and Aunt, and when I take care of them, I'll come and see you. ”

At that time, Ling Chaofeng only thought that the Xiaowan meant that she would come back to the capital again.

Until he saw Xiaowan bringing Little Pei out of the capital, Ling Chaofeng never thought that a weak person like Xiaowan could cause such a huge commotion.

In the beginning of September, when the wind had cooled down and was at its most comfortable, Xiaowan took Little Pei back to the Baisha Town. Uncle Biao had long since driven the carriage outside the Li Prefecture, received the two women, and carried Little Pei over his head on his shoulders.

They directly went to the Baisha Village, and Aunt Zhang was also there. Surprisingly, the Xiaowan didn't arrive earlier or later, she had just landed, and Susu was about to give birth.

The two sisters were unable to speak. Susu was in excruciating pain as she held her hands tightly to protect himself. Four hours later, a healthy baby girl was born.

”It's my wife!” Little Pei happily walked around the adult, anxious to see his little sister. The crowd teased him, asking if he was his little sister or his wife.

”You really gave me a daughter-in-law, how can you be so capable?” The Xiaowan laughed, ”Are you not afraid that I will mistreat her in the future?”

Susu held onto Xiaowan's hand and said: ”She will definitely be filial to you.”

The Xiaowan shook her head, ”As long as the children are doing well, we can do whatever we want, right?”

Susu said with tears in her eyes: ”Evening, you're back. Don't go far, I really miss you for the better part of half a year. Even if you go out in the future, bring me along as well. I won't be at ease if you're alone outside. ”

The Xiaowan was annoyed: ”Da Qing has to be impatient with me, I kidnapped his wife and ran away.”

They were embracing each other as the Xiaowan stroked Susu's back. ”I'm not leaving, I'm not going anywhere.”

Under the care of the Aunt Zhang and the Uncle Biao, the inn had already returned to its former state. However, other than a few familiar guests who passed by the inn, there was almost no business at all within the inn, making it especially deserted.

On the other hand, Xiaowan felt that the reason for Leng Qing's silence was not because there was no business, but because one person was missing. Ershan was not a small number, he could come back anytime, but Ling Chaofeng would never be able to return.

”Wan'er, you've worked hard.” The Aunt Zhang said to the Xiaowan tearfully, ”Shall we go take a bath together?”

”Yes.” Xiaowan agreed with a smile.

The days passed one by one. On this day, Aunt Zhang came to see Susu, who was sitting in her seat, while Xiaowan stayed at the inn to take care of him.

While the family members were talking, the village suddenly became lively. Some people were beating the gongs and drums and said that the joyous news that was sent to them from Beijing, with Li Prefecture being released, would give them the first place in the examination. After a few days, it would be time for the Hall Competition.

Uncle Biao hurriedly returned to the inn and informed Xiaowan of the good news. Today was still a good day, and everyone was immersed in the joy of seeing the future of Ershan, but on the morning of the next day, Aunt Zhang came to find Xiaowan for breakfast. The room on the third floor was completely empty, and the two of them had disappeared.

When she found Baisha Village, Susu took the infant to feed him and shook her head in a daze, ”I haven't seen her.”
