The spring sun was shining on the surface of the sea. After a heavy rain yesterday, the beach was flooded with fresh shells, sea turtles, and some unknown green plankton.
The Little Tiger ran happily on the beach, chasing after the red-beaked gull that was playing in the water. After his mother had walked for so long, he slowly became accustomed to the days when his mother was not around.
From a distance, he saw King Qin walking over, so he clapped his hands and welcomed him. "Abba, Abba, help me catch a bird quickly …"
King Qin glared: You heartless Stinky kid, you don't miss your mother?
He looked around quickly and asked, "Where's Mom? She's been back a long time. "
King Qin could not answer and ignored him.
"Abba, help me catch that, I want coral …"
King Qin sat motionlessly on the beach. No matter how the Little Tiger tugged at his hair or ears, he was still like an iron tower, unmoving.
"Scram! You little rascal, don't piss me off, otherwise I'll beat you up!"
The Little Tiger let go of his hair angrily, "Bad guy … Big Scoundrel, Abba is a Big Scoundrel … " He couldn't hold back his anger, and reached out to grab King Qin's beard, "Big Scoundrel, I won't play with you anymore …"
Ma Su slowly walked over and stopped three or four feet away from the King Qin. His gaze moved away from the Little Tiger s who were chasing after the birds, and landed on the King Qin. Overnight, King Qin's hair became even more disheveled. Only one tiger apron was tied to his waist, he looked like a barbarian with wrinkles all over his aged face. He thought about how he was wearing the valley towel and the new Single Shirt, and he sighed. How much could a woman change a man to? Now that King Qin was like this, if anyone wanted to change him, they would not even dare to think about it.
"Great King, this shipment of goods is about to depart. This subordinate will probably be gone for quite some time. " This batch of goods was huge and could not be lost, so Ma Su had to personally hold the line. When he left, he reported to the King Qin.
"Alright. "Be careful in everything you do. After this transaction, you cannot leave the island easily. You must stay on the island to help me."
Ma Su accepted the order and was about to leave, but he could not help but ask: "Great King, do you still want to send Li Tinglan away?"
King Qin said resolutely, "No!"
When King Qin got angry, he thought that King Qin would immediately send him away, but he never expected that King Qin would not make a move and never mention about this matter again.
He tried to ask, "Great King, is there any news from Madame?"
King Qin snorted heavily, and said after a long while: "I don't care if she has any news or not. Anyway, laozi will never go and find her again. Her son is here. If she wants to come back, then come back.
Ma Su was well aware that Hua Rong's sudden death had been a huge blow to him, so he comforted him: "Madam, she also had to suffer a lot because of this. Yue Xiang Gong died so miserably …"
"I have been looking for her for over 10 years. Is it that easy to be your father? Did she think this father would wait for her for the rest of his life? No, I will never wait for her again. "If we wait any longer, I'll be old …"
King Qin was still sitting on the beach, looking into the distance. The anger in his heart was like a tide that surged back and forth, and this time was different from the past. Could it be that Third Uncle Yang's words were more important than the hard work he had done to her all these years? She had actually left quietly just because of these words, not even bothering to say hello. What was the use of having such a heartless woman come?
Once Ma Su left, the Little Tiger picked up a crab and ran over, happily calling him: "Abba, Abba …" Seeing that the King Qin was ignoring him, he quietly walked in front of him and threw the crab onto his body. King Qin was still thinking, and did not come to his senses, when the crab reached out its pincers and pinched his feet. With a burst of pain, King Qin kicked the crab three meters away. Fortunately it was a small crab, and its bite was not heavy. However, when the Little Tiger saw the Abba in a sorry state, it giggled in joy: "I bit it, I bit it …"
King Qin pulled him back and slapped his butt with his palm. "Stinky kid is as evil as Yue Pengju … Seeing that laozi isn't going to deal with you … "
Little Tiger's head struggled with all his might on his knees as he forced a laugh, "Abba, I want mother, mother …"
The King Qin was at his wit's end as he hatefully retorted, "Your mother often thinks herself to be some kind of gentleman. She's actually just a heartless woman who doesn't know what's good for her. He was so stupid that he worked hard for Zhao Deji every single time. Even though he knew that there was only death waiting for him, he still went to a dead end. This kind of stupid, stupid, and heartless woman, why would I go look for her again? She treated me like a donkey's liver out of kindness. Did she really think that I, her father, would like her? "I'm not going anymore. It's good that she died. It's best if she died …" Little Tiger's head could not understand, only hearing Abba say "dead", he did not even know what "dead" meant, and asked curiously, "Is my mother dead?"
King Qin simply ignored him, "Sigh, don't blame her. It was Yue Pengju this little brat who led her astray. It was all Yue Pengju's fault. Tiger Head, don't learn from your mother in the future. If you were like her, you wouldn't live a good life. Remember, Hua Rong and Yue Pengju are the biggest idiots in Big Scoundrel, if you behave like them in the future, I will chop you into pieces with my blade. "
"My Abba is not a bad person, and my mother is not a bad person."
"Stinky kid, you still dare to argue?"
He forcefully pressed the Little Tiger's head on his knee and then spanked it again. The Little Tiger struggled as it cursed: "Bad guy, Big Scoundrel, I'm going to catch crab to bite you again … Ouch, Big Scoundrel. "
The Qing Ming Festival.
It was during the darkest period before dawn that Hua Rong stepped on the dew and slowly passed through the cemetery, arriving at the pine forest in front of him. The paper banner had already been replaced with a new one. After her eyes adapted to the darkness, she could see a faint layer of white. Hua Rong knelt in front of the grave and lit up the paper money, then fumbled in the dim light and poured a layer of paper money on the grave. In front of the small stone that was pressing down on the yellow rock, a wind blew, causing a rustling sound.
She knelt in front of the grave and muttered to herself in a low voice: "Pengju, are you alright? Big Brother Lu, where is he? "
Lu Da had disappeared into thin air. He was dead without a trace, in this chaotic world, how could it be easy to find him? He would have to return the favor in the next life.
"Peng Ju, I have already settled down the guest and the Sis GaoSi and Sis. "Don't worry."
The first glimmer of dawn would be followed by the appearance of other tombs. She didn't dare to stay any longer. She got up and walked down a deserted path towards the other side of the mountain.
In the forest, a figure flashed out and called out: "Madam."
She let out a long sigh. "Liu Zhiyong, it really is you." These days, he kept noticing that there were people sneaking around, but he did not have any malicious intentions, so he guessed that they were people from the King Qin.
Liu Zhiyong bowed and said, "Madam, I came here on the orders of the King to look for Madam."
Hua Rong was slightly depressed, she took her leave without saying goodbye, she didn't want to know how angry the King Qin would be. The King Qin had waited for more than ten years. He was filled with joy, yet he himself had betrayed his trust, what would happen to him? How is father and son?
"Your Majesty, is he alright?"
"The King is furious, angry to death. Madam should also know that the King has treated you with such kindness. How can it not make him sad after he leaves? " Liu Zhiyong told the truth, "The King calls me Madam and tells me that since he is old, he won't spend more than ten years searching for Madam …"
Hua Rong turned her head, his eyes moist. Many days, not only would she think of his son, but she would also think of the man who looked like a metal tower. She would think of how he laughed when he wore her new clothes, the look in his eyes when she wore her valley towel, and the grudge she had with him for half her life. Especially this year of constant care, support, and gentleness. When she was at her most desperate, who else could he rely on other than him?
Actually, he didn't ask the King Qin to search for him everywhere. He should have his own happiness. Especially after he returned to Lin An, after the seeds of hatred reignited, his life had already begun to come to a conclusion. King Qin, for him to not come looking for him was a good thing.
Maybe, Li Tinglan was the real home for him. She suddenly thought of the beautiful girl in the painting, who was beautiful beyond compare. King Qin had her, it could really be said that it was perfect for both of them. It was true that he was completely burdened by it. Her heart ached, and she said in a calm voice, "Tell the King that I am fine, there is no need to find me. You also asked Brothers to leave, and from today onwards, do not come looking for me again. "
"But, the King said that if you don't go back, he will marry another woman and wouldn't care about the head of the Little Tiger …"
Her heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife. She hardened her heart and said, "Let him be."
Liu Zhiyong stared at her, waiting for her to ask about her son. Hua Rong said no more and turned to leave. It wasn't that she wasn't mentioning her son, but that she couldn't bring it up. As soon as she thought of it, she would completely relax. Good life, bad death, human nature. Who wouldn't be willing to lazily bask in the sun on the beach with their son? But how could she have the qualifications to do so? Penga's blood was spreading all over her nose, Qin Gui, Jin Wushu, Zhao Deji … All her enemies were acting arrogantly. As long as they didn't die, he wouldn't have the qualification to do so.
Sis GaoSi and Sis received a pardon, but did not return to Lin An. Instead, he changed his direction and went to Huzhou. When Hua Rong heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. It was also a good thing for him that the two of them did not return to Vishnu.
That morning, she went to visit Li Yian. It was already the early summer. Flowers bloomed in the garden, and the trees were dense. She found a stone chair and sat down. With her eyes closed, she organized her thoughts about Lin An.
An Li Yian, Sis GaoSi, these were all small matters, and there were very few people in the dynasty who dared to openly kill off the nine clans. Zhao Deji was not interested in punishing the old granny and children who had no way to retaliate, and would always leave some leeway to do bad things. The fact that Yue Pengju's son was still alive was proof of that. Because he was willing to show that he did not violate the Taizu's oath.
However, what Hua Rong wanted wasn't just these. Unless it was Lin An, there would be no memories of the deep hatred between the two. Kill Zhao Deji! How could he kill Zhao Deji? She had been thinking about this question over and over again these past few days. However, Zhao Deji had patience, he was not anxious to give her a chance to get close.
A bird flew by, shaking the branches above her head, Hua Rong suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the uninvited guest.
Accompanied by Xu Caizhi, Zhang Quwei and the others, Zhao Deji stood facing them, dressed in casual clothes.
She looked at Zhao Deji, and Zhao Deji looked at her too.
