Chapter 507: illegitimate child

The thatched house is dilapidated, with bare walls. The only thing that looks solid is the wooden bed. The room is clean and everything is neatly arranged. It can be seen that the mother of Xiao Wuzi is a hardworking person.

"Mom, I'm here."

Little Wuzi's eyes were full of tears, he wiped them with his sleeve, his eyes were red, thinking of his little friend's words, his mother was leaving, and from now on, he would be alone.

"My child, I'm sorry for you."

Little Wuzi's mother is thin, but she has the best looks. Perhaps she has not seen the light all year round, and her face is a little abnormally pale. She holds Xiao Wuzi's hand, "No matter how difficult it is in the future, I must live on."

Whether in Heishui Village or elsewhere, she hoped that her son would remember that he must have a conscience, that others treat him well, he must not be a white-eyed wolf, and he must know how to be grateful.

"Mother, I remember everything you told me."

Little Wuzi held his mother's hand and nodded vigorously. At this time, he must not cry, and let his mother go away with peace of mind.

However, he still has a little doubt. Since he was born, he has been in Heishui Village. He heard that his mother was sent here with a big belly. He didn't know who his father was.

"Your father is in the capital. His surname is Ruan. He is a direct descendant of the Ruan family. His name is Ruan Pingzhi..."

The woman took off the jade pendant from her neck with great difficulty, and stuffed it into Xiao Wuzi's hands. It was useless for her to say these things, but, just in case, she thought, if God opened his eyes, Xiao Wuzi would have a chance to go out , I went to Kyoto to find him, he must be very surprised, right?

At this point, she doesn't know who to hate, and she lives to lament the injustice of fate.

Since she was born, she was bought by Ren Yazi and sent to the Ruan Mansion in Kyoto, where she was assigned to be a little girl beside the young master Ruan Pingzhi.

More than ten years have passed, and she has grown into a graceful figure, and she even got an elegant name, Danhe.

Ruan Pingzhi and she grew up with a deep relationship. After drinking, they made that happen. However, at that time, Ruan Pingzhi was about to marry a wife.

At this juncture, if she quarrels, it will definitely affect Ruan Pingzhi's reputation, and the failure of the marriage between the two houses will have a great impact on both of them.

The old ancestor had no choice but to send her to Zhuangzi overnight, and promised to take her back after a period of time after Ruan Pingzhi got married.

She waited and waited on the Zhuangzi, hoping and looking forward, but in the end she didn't wait for the news of her return home, but was resold by Ren Yazi again.

On the way, Ren Yazi found out that she was pregnant, lamented that it was bad luck, and wanted to give her abortion drugs, but she got the news in advance and escaped overnight.

Along the way, she fled from Kyoto to the Northwest. When she wanted to catch her breath, a plague broke out in the village, and she was thrown directly to Heishui Village by the officials.

The days and nights in Heishui Village were nightmares, but fortunately, she survived and gave birth to her fifth child.

The Ruan family has strict discipline on servants. She has learned to read and embroider since elementary school, but she can't do menial work at all. When she came to Heishui Village, she was bullied, couldn't eat enough, and faced harassment from the men around her.

Those with families, with ugly faces, knocked on her door in the middle of the night.

She knew that a woman would not be able to survive alone in Heishui Village, and could only rely on others. Instead of being a lowly person that anyone could get, it would be better to be from one person, at least to have a backer.

Later, she followed Fan Da's subordinate Liu Er.

It's not that she didn't think about committing suicide to keep her name, but what about the little fifth son, he's still a child!

As long as she can remember, she has been in the Ruan Mansion and has never seen her mother, but last night, she had a dream. It turns out that her mother is not alive.

The only thing she worries about is her son.

Wu Fu stood at the door, dumbfounded. What did she hear? Isn't there something wrong with her ears?

Ruan Pingzhi, how many Ruan families are there in Kyoto, and how many Ruan Pingzhi are there?

No, before the woman dies, she must ask for her wife!

"You mean, the fifth son is the son of Young Master Ruan, Ruan Pingzhi, from the Ruan Mansion in Kyoto?"

Wu Fu came to his senses and quickly confirmed, but was taken aback by Dan He who was about to confess his last words.

"You are?"

Hearing someone mention her young master's name, Dan He was taken aback, with tears in her eyes, she didn't know why she still had such emotions before she died.

Before I die, I really want to see him again, at least, hand over Xiao Wuzi to him.

What kind of expression would Ruan Pingzhi want? Guilty, indifference, distressed or?

Would he feel that he owed her? Dan He smiled wryly, she didn't blame him, not at all, she did it voluntarily back then, with such an ending, maybe it was her fate to be a maid.

It's just that the little fifth son is very innocent. As a bastard, even if he returns to the Ruan family, he will still have a wrong name and a bad reputation.

"I'm new here. Our wife is the cousin of Master Ruan."

Wufu didn't know how to explain this, Danhe was already dying, she went back and brought his wife over, the little Wuzi's mother was about to die.

"cousin?"

Looking at it, Dan He had already breathed her last breath, because of Wu Fu's words, she suddenly became more energetic.

There was a noise at the door, Li Haitang was supported by Nanny Yu, and entered the yard.

She didn't know why she followed him, but when she saw Xiao Wuzi, she felt a special sympathy and felt pity for him.

Hearing that his mother has been suffering from illnesses and never recovering, and with what the little ones said, Li Haitang speculated that his mother's illness must not be contagious, otherwise, the little one wouldn't play with the little five.

Xiaowa lost her mother, so how could she rely on her in Heishui Village? After thinking about it, she asked Nanny Yu to follow her to take a look with her medicine box.

"Ma'am, why are you here!"

When Wu Fu saw Li Haitang, he directly pulled her into the door, but stood in front of her intimately, saying bluntly, "Little Wu is the son of Master Ruan."

"What nonsense, talking nonsense?"

Li Haitang scolded, but didn't react at all. What soft master, hard master.

"It's your cousin!"

Wu Fu's mouth was so stupid that she almost slapped herself. Why couldn't she speak clearly at the critical moment!

"Little Wuzi's mother came from the Ruan Mansion in Kyoto. She used to be your cousin's personal maid!"

Wu Fu was in a hurry, and tried to express her meaning in simple words. This time, she spoke clearly enough in one place.

Li Haitang pushed the person away, stepped forward with a frown, and felt the pulse of Xiao Wuzi's mother. Judging from the pulse, it should be the root cause of the illness left behind by not confinement after giving birth that year.

The foundation of his body has long been hollowed out, and he is dying of illness.

Seeing that Xiao Wuzi's mother had something to say, Li Haitang hurriedly took out a silver needle from her purse, sealed her acupoints, and gained a moment of breathing.

"My mother, Ruan Shi, is the daughter of the Ruan family."

When Li Haitang said this, Dan He immediately understood. The Ruan family was famous in Kyoto back then, talented and beautiful, and outstanding in everything, but it's a pity that she suddenly disappeared without knowing why.
