Chapter 155 - Bringing back Dongchu
Chapter 155 - Bringing back Dongchu
Song Yunli took the letter out of the envelope with a little caution, and shook her hand gently, and the letter opened. When she saw the familiar handwriting, her heart, which still had some warmth left, completely turned cold.
After reading the entire content of the letter, my heart was completely frozen. Hua Xiaoan, is this how you betray the trust of Song Yunli?
"Li'er, are the dates of your birth mentioned above correct?" the great elder asked anxiously, pressing down on Song Yunli's shoulders with his old hands and shaking them continuously.
"That's right, you already know it, so why ask me?" Song Yunli said lightly.
"Li'er, how are your father and mother now? Where do they live now?" Mu Chen asked expectantly. Even if Zhi Xiao had made a big mistake, he was still his most beloved youngest son. How could he not miss him?
Song Yunli lowered her head slightly and looked at the letter in her hand. Fortunately, Hua Xiaoan did not reveal her parents' whereabouts, otherwise she would never let him go.
"Old man, it doesn't matter whether you know where they are or not. Anyway, they can't set foot in Dongchu again in this lifetime. Why bother asking!" The elder seemed to be in a much better mood than before. He spitted when he spoke, and he was very full of energy.
"Li'er, come back to Dongchu with us two old guys. We can buy you whatever you want!" The great elder knelt on one knee and pulled Song Yunli's hand to coax her.
Song Yunli took two steps back in disgust, looking at the Great Elder with a look as if he were a monster. If his behavior happened in modern times, one would think it was an old cow eating young grass!
Mu Chen also looked at the Great Elder with some contempt. Couldn't this old fellow see that his granddaughter's intelligence was much higher than other children of the same age? How could he not see through his tricks of fooling a child? It was really true that ugly people were more likely to act strangely!
"Old man, why don't you come and help!" The great elder glared at Mu Chen unhappily. If there was no successor to the high priest, their Mu family would not know how much criticism they would suffer.
"Li'er, it's not easy for the people to survive. Floods and waterlogging disasters have occurred frequently in recent years, and insect pests are becoming more and more serious. Dongchu can no longer live without a high priest." Mu Chen's previous kindness changed, and his voice became much more serious, revealing the majesty of the head of the family.
"You have read the letter, so you must know that I grew up in the general's mansion and my family is all in Nanyue. Don't even think about going to Dongchu with you unless I, Song Yunli, die!" After he finished speaking, he threw the crumpled letter out and ran quickly towards the door.
Mu Chen grabbed Song Yunli and locked her tightly in his arms, then he calmly glanced at the Great Elder, who immediately took out a blue carved porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Mu Chen.
"Li'er, have a good sleep and everything will be fine tomorrow." Mu Chen poured out two pills from the bottle, pinched Song Yunli's mouth open and threw them in, then covered her mouth with his wrinkled big palm to prevent her from spitting out the pills.
"Um... Um..." Song Yunli kept twisting and thrashing in Mu Chen's arms. This feeling was too powerless. She swore that she would take revenge when she became stronger one day! Two damn old men!
Crystal clear tears slid down the little girl's eyes. The great elder couldn't bear it anymore, and knocked Song Yunli unconscious with a light blow of his knife. When she woke up again, she was already in Dongchu State.
A drizzle began to fall from the sky, and the fine rain woke up the father and daughter who were immersed in the story. Xiao Mu took Mu Ziyan into his arms distressedly, patted her back gently and said, "Li'er... no... Ziyan, your parents owe you too much over the years."
