Chapter 174 Mission 016
Xiao Yu was about to leave, planning to wait outside for Shao's mother to come out before discussing with her how to settle Su Ling's mother and daughter.
However, the plan failed to catch up with the change. When Shao's mother turned around and put the soup bowl on the table, she accidentally glanced at the window and happened to see Xiao Yu's leaving figure. She quickly chased after him: "Qingyun is here? Why don't you come in?"
Xiao Yu's departure was paused. Since everything had been discovered, there was no need to escape anymore.
He walked into the small room and looked up at the young girl sitting beside the bed.
Su Ling is worthy of being a woman who has always been liked by the original owner in her heart, and can also be favored by Ningyuan Hou Shizi. She is not stunning in appearance, but she is also very beautiful, and she still has the kind of gentle and virtuous beauty of IKEA. Su Ling after rebirth With a different kind of strong beauty, it is very charming.
However, Xiao Yu has seen too many beauties, and Su Ling is not the top among them. He has no intention of conquering the heroine in this world. Since he didn't intend to have anything to do with Su Ling, he glanced at her and quickly looked away.
His behavior of quickly shifting his gaze seemed to Su Ling to be a sign of guilty conscience.
After rebirth, Su Ling said that Shao Qingyun could be ranked third among the people she hated the most. The first one was Wang Nianyun who directly killed her daughter and forced her to death. The second one was Shao's mother who caused her tragedy. The third one was cowardice. Shao Qingyun was unable to protect their mother and daughter.
Su Ling was also very cowardly before her rebirth, but after her rebirth, she quickly became strong like a golden finger. She looked down on Shao Qingyun, who had always been pinched by two women, Shao's mother and Wang Nianyun, because of his soft temper.
Seeing Shao Qingyun's behavior of not even daring to look at herself, Su Ling sneered in her heart: Useless man!
Shao's mother didn't know what kind of hatred Su Ling was hiding in her heart at this time. She just felt that this little girl had grown up and wanted to resist her before her wings were hardened. She was really brave. If she hadn't been worried about her grandson, she would have done it long ago. A slap passed by.
Xiao Yu suddenly said: "I heard it outside just now." He looked at Su Ling, "You want to leave the Shao family?"
Su Ling nodded expressionlessly.
Xiao Yu said calmly: "Okay..."
Shao's mother said anxiously: "Qingyun!"
Xiao Yu stopped Shao's mother with a look, and continued: "But you can leave, but the child is mine and must stay in the Shao family."
Su Ling refused without hesitation: "Impossible! My daughter is mine, I must take her away!"
Shao's mother was not born again. Naturally, she didn't know that the child in Su Ling's belly was a girl, and she still expected it to be a boy. "We, the Shao family, would not be interested in a daughter, but if you give birth to a son, you must keep the child!"
Of course Xiao Yu would not agree and said to Shao's mother: "Mom, the child in my cousin's belly is my own flesh and blood. Whether it is a boy or a girl, it is the blood of my Shao family. How can it be allowed to live outside?"
Shao's mother thought about it and thought it was right. She nodded, and then said a few more times: "What nonsense are you talking about! It must be a grandson! Bah, bah, bah, don't talk about my grandson!"
Su Ling said she would not agree to keep the child, and she still regretted not agreeing to Shao's mother's conditions just now.
The condition that Shao's mother put forward before was that the boy could take the girl away if he left the boy. The child she gave birth to must be a daughter. If she had agreed just now, she would be able to take away the daughter smoothly. It's a pity that Shao's mother has been persuaded by Xiao Yu.
Su Ling, who felt regretful in her heart, glared at Xiao Yu fiercely, secretly thinking about how to leave the Shao family.
She really couldn't think of anyone to turn to. After all, the child in her belly was indeed Shao Qingyun's. Even if they were divorced, the child would belong to the Shao family unless the Shao family took the initiative to reject it.
<<<<<<<<<<
Xiao Yu and Shao's mother left the small room. In order to prevent Su Ling from escaping, Shao's mother put a big iron lock on the door and even locked the windows.
Listening to the sound of Su Ling knocking on the door and shouting in the small wing, Xiao Yu didn't make any move, just watched Shao's mother's movements. He didn't want to imprison the heroine like this, but he was really worried that the heroine's accidental physique would kill the child after she left, and he could not change Shao's mother's stubborn idea of for her grandson.
Shao's mother left with Xiao Yu, and she said with great expectation: "In a few months, my wonderful grandson will be born..."
Xiao Yu frowned slightly. Mother Shao was looking forward to Su Ling's child so much. When the child was born and found out that it was a girl, Mother Shao would be disappointed and she would not hate the child. She said, "Mom, I really hope that Su Ling's child will be born." The child is a daughter, otherwise it would be difficult for Nianyun to explain. "
Shao's mother was usually tolerant to Wang Nianyun, but she refused to give in when it came to her grandson. When she heard Xiao Yu's words, she raised eyebrows and said, "She dares!"
Xiao Yu had no choice but to persuade her in another way: "Mom, I studied to become an official in the imperial examination. Scholars all value concubines. If Su Ling is still my wife, I certainly hope that she will have a son. But now my wife is Nianyun, how can my eldest son be born as a concubine? The eldest son of a concubine is the source of chaos in the family..."
He said it more seriously, elevating the issue of concubines to his future as an official. Shao's mother was frightened and at a loss: "Then... what should we do? If that girl Su Ling really What should I do if I have a grandson?”
Now Shao's mother was coaxed and frightened by Xiao Yu. She thought whether Su Ling's child was a boy or a girl would affect her future future, and she was worried. If Su Ling gave birth to a grandson for her, but the grandson would never be kissed by a son, she would not like the grandson if it threatened her son's future. But if she gave up, she would not be able to bear the grandson she had been looking forward to for many years... Shao was troubled in his heart. The mother now really hoped that Su Ling would give birth to a daughter. At least she would have the best of both worlds, and there would always be a grandson in the future.
There has never been a noble person in the Shao family, and even when the family was in the best of circumstances, they could only be considered rich farmers. Shao Qingyun is a typical farmer's son, and he is the most knowledgeable person in the Shao family today. Therefore, Xiao Yu's deception actually deceived Shao's father and Shao's mother. In order to prevent Wang Nianyun from being careless, Shao's mother specially talked to her.
In any case, Xiao Yu has sorted things out for the time being in the Shao family. Even Su Ling is now locked up in Shao's house and awaiting childbirth.
Although Xiao Yu also feels that it is inhumane to restrict a pregnant woman in this way, in this ancient society, this is completely normal. If Heli's ex-wife has children from her husband's family, she must wait in her husband's family until the child is born before she can leave. If the child is taken away, it is a special case if the husband's family voluntarily gives it up.
Now in this ancient society as Shao Qingyun, Xiao Yu has no intention of disobeying the rules of this world. He adapts himself to the rules of this society. This is not a modern society where the law is fair, just and humane, nor is it a world of martial arts cultivation where strength is respected. In this ancient society with strict etiquette, one has to learn social rules and use them to climb up to a height where rules can be formulated.
<<<<<<<<<<
When Su Ling's belly was already five months old, Xiao Yu remembered something.
A major matter related to the life and safety of the male protagonist Jiang Li!
In the original work, after Su Ling was reborn, she was nearly three months pregnant when she was approached by Wang Nianyun and others. When they started fighting with Wang Nianyun, she was knocked to the ground and had a miscarriage. After the miscarriage, Su Ling recovered for more than two months. After Su Ling recovered, she met the seriously injured male protagonist Jiang Li when she went to dig wild vegetables in the back mountain.
As the prince of Ning Yuan Hou, Jiang Li is a man of both civil and military talents. He has been a companion of the current four princes since he was a child. His father, Ning Yuan Hou, has high hopes for him. However, his mother died early and his stepmother gave birth to a younger brother. His half-brother wanted to kill him to seize his title and family property. This time Jiang Li was seriously injured because he was doing something for the fourth prince and was hunted down. He also happened to meet someone sent by his stepmother to kill him. Two groups of killers put him in a near-death situation.
If he hadn't been rescued by the female protagonist, the male protagonist Jiang Li would have died of his injuries.
Of course, this kind of plot is for the male and female protagonists to meet and pave the way for the subsequent acquaintance and love. Xiao Yu felt that although he had held back the female protagonist Su Ling, the male protagonist Jiang Li also had the halo of being the protagonist and should not be able to die... But what if he died? After thinking about it, Xiao Yu decided to wander around the back mountain often during these days, and rescue the male protagonist whenever he could meet him.
In any case, saving the male protagonist has no disadvantages for him. The fourth prince who is loyal to the male protagonist Jiang Li is the next emperor. It is not bad to be able to ride on the fourth prince's sailing ship by virtue of saving Jiang Li's life.
However, Xiao Yu is obviously different from the heroine. The heroine has only been wandering around in the back mountain for two days before the beauty saves the hero. He has been wandering around in the back mountain for almost half a month and the hero is still nowhere to be seen.
However, this kind of incident that did not specify the specific time and place in the original work was inherently a matter of luck, so Xiao Yu insisted on continuing to wander around the back mountain.
In the end, Huangtian paid off. He wandered around until the sun set and was about to turn back when he heard some unusual noises - heavy breathing and the sound of deep and shallow footsteps.
Xiao Yu could tell just by listening to the breathing and footsteps that the person coming must be seriously injured. He also smelled the smell of blood.
However, he did not move. If the person who came was the male protagonist Jiang Li, then although he was not yet in a coma, he was at the end of his strength, but he was the most vigilant and aggressive.
Xiao Yu did not deliberately hide his whereabouts. Instead, he used the sickle in his hand to cut off the dense weeds and thorns around him from time to time. He dug up a few wild vegetables and put them into the basket behind him. His footsteps were as heavy as those of a person with no martial arts skills.
