Chapter 54 (2/2)

Seeing that Chu Zhang had made up his mind, Wu cried: ”When the bandits came, I ran for my life with Xi'er in my arms. I was afraid that Xi'er's cry would attract soldiers. I covered her to my chest. When the bandits left, her face turned blue. I almost thought she was gone... Unexpectedly, she didn't cry and kept smiling at me when she woke up. My heart suddenly softened. Later, the bandits wanted to catch me to threaten you. I wanted to hide They fell off the cliff and were unconscious. If Xi'er's cry hadn't awakened me, I would have almost gone! ”

”You always say that Xi'er lived in fine clothes and food and enjoyed all the glory and wealth, but before she was three years old, she also followed me and my mother and suffered all the hardships? At the beginning, I fell off the cliff and my legs hurt. On the ninth cold day, Xi'er held my legs in her arms and warmed me. My mother called me again and again. They all said that Huang Xiang was warm, how old was my Xi'er? That would be me I swear, even if I fight this life, I will let Xi'er have no worries about food and clothing, wealth and well-being in this life. ”

”The children at home blame me for being partial to Xi'er. Everything good is close to her, but you don't think about it. You go out to work every day, and Yan'er is not with me. Other children don't kiss me. Only Xi'er can accompany me. What's wrong with me?”

Chu Zhang's eyes turned red when Wu's words were said.

After a long silence, Chu Zhang said to Xi'er, ”go back first. If there's anything, we'll talk about it tomorrow.”

Chu Zhang asked someone to send Chu Xi back to her yard.

After Chu Xi left, Chu Zhang said to Wu: ”it's not that I can't tolerate Xi'er. I grew up watching her. I treat her more kindly than Qing'er, but there can't be any more trouble in our house. You know, there are some changes in the situation of the imperial court. If the back house affects my career, how can I face the ancestors of the Chu family?”

”Now it's not emotional. We have to make a choice. I can promise you that Xi'er will be sent back for the time being. After my order comes down and settled down, if you really miss Xi'er, as long as the Zhao family agrees, I'll pick Xi'er up right away. Isn't it just right for our family to reunite?”

Under the lobbying of Chu Zhang, Wu finally nodded: ”then you must promise me to pick her up before Xi'er and Ji.”

Seeing Wu's consent, Chu Zhang was finally relieved: ”OK, I promise you.”

Chu Xi thought she would not be sent away, but Wu said, ”your father has sent a letter to your mother... Mother.”

When it comes to the word mother, Wu is sad and speechless. When he thinks that Xi'er will call another mother in the future, his heart is like a knife.

Wu burst into tears: ”don't worry, son. I've agreed with your father to pick you up when you're settled. Then we'll be reunited again.”

Wu couldn't tell Chu Xi in detail about Chu Zhang's officialdom, so he had to tell him vaguely.

After hearing this, Chu Xi was like a thunderbolt.

”Mother, you're going to send me away?” what did you say? You'll pick her up later. It's all lies and fools! ”I won't go! Why should I go? I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I go? It's also Chu Zhi's going. A bumpkin who can't get on the table will drive me away just because she's your daughter? What's my pleasure under your knees for so many years? What I say hurts me most is false. Lie to me! You still hurt Chu Zhi like the old lady, just because she's you He climbed out of his stomach! So he would abandon me and drive me away! ”

Chu Xi's words pierced Wu's heart like a knife.

Wu loved Chu Xi the most and treated her like a * * * and said that Wu didn't hurt her as much as the old lady. You know, Wu hated the old lady the most. At the thought that she was the same as the person she hated most in Chu Xi's heart, Wu was shocked and speechless. Unexpectedly, this was said by her most painful daughter.

Chu Xi, seeing Wu's silence, thought she had guessed right and collapsed directly.

”Don't you just want to drive me away? OK, I'll go! I'll go now! It won't hurt your eyes any more! What do you say to compensate me? You don't keep me, I won't beg for nothing in the Chu house. You gave me all these. Now give them back to you! Give them all to you!”
