Chapter 727
Ask him if he'd be willing to be your father.
Chapter 727 Ask him if he'd be willing to be your father.
When Tian Shu was looked at from left to right by his mother, and his face was stroked countless times and carefully examined countless times, after the family's emotions finally calmed down, Tian Shu turned his head and realized that something was wrong.
My younger brother and sister, as well as my master, Sister Feiyan, were all by my mother's side. What were the expressions on their faces?
Tian Shu suddenly realized that his mother's eyes had been healed and that she was planning to leave, taking everyone to his younger brother Tian Quan's house.
What should I do? I haven't told my father and mother that I want to continue going with her. No, my father knows, but has he told my mother?
My mother can only see now, would she agree to let me leave now?
No, Tian Shu decided to talk to his mother and see if they could postpone their departure for a few days. Just a few days would be fine. He wanted to spend some quality time with his mother and have a good talk with her during that time.
"Father, please go and rest with Mother first. I'll come over later," Tian Shu said, turning to his father.
"Alright," Imperial Censor Luo replied, then turned to his wife and reminded her not to overwork herself since her eyes had just recovered.
Madam Wen didn't want to leave, saying she hadn't thanked Miss Hong yet.
Imperial Censor Luo smiled and said, "No rush, no rush. Let's go back and discuss how to thank this Miss Hong."
The old lady wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, glanced at the group of people of all ages not far away, and said to her son and daughter-in-law, "Tomorrow, make some preparations and we'll go to the ancestral graves to pay our respects and thank our ancestors for blessing us with such a great person."
……
"Mother, are you planning to leave?" Tian Shu asked anxiously as he stepped forward.
“Yes, we’ll be leaving soon,” Hong Xiaoduo blurted out.
"So urgent?" Upon hearing this, Tian Shu immediately looked at Tian Quan, thinking to himself, "Is it you who's urging me?"
"Why are you looking at me like that, big brother? Mom didn't say I was coming along." Tianquan was a little confused by the look and said subconsciously.
Huh? What do you mean?
Tian Shu was a little confused after hearing this, and then looked at the others.
“Mother left alone, without taking anyone with her. We’re discussing whether to stay with my eldest brother and wait for her to come back, or go to my fourth brother’s house to wait for her.” Yao Guang, unable to win her over with her coquettishness, sighed resignedly and said to Tian Shu.
Leave? Without anyone? Wait for her?
Tian Shu quickly grasped these key words: "Where is Mother planning to go? How long will it take?"
"Going to the capital, it will take about two or three months round trip? I can't guarantee the exact time." Hong Xiaoduo had never tried using that carriage that could travel at 120 km/h, so she left herself some leeway in terms of travel time.
Go to the capital? Tian Shu thought for a moment, then his eyes widened as he looked at Hong Xiaoduo. Could it be that he's going to find Prince Mu?
“I’m going to find Prince Mu and ask him if he’d be willing to be your father,” Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile.
Cough, cough!
"Xiao Duo," Fei Yan said helplessly.
"You really are something." Quan Jinghuai was helpless!
Hong Xiaoduo shrugged: "That's right. They call me mother and my husband, so shouldn't they call him father?"
The children looked at each other, realizing that Hong Xiaoduo was teasing them, but they also felt guilty.
"Then how about we address each other?" Tian Shu asked hesitantly.
I mentioned it to her before, and she said, "Never mind, let it be!"
If she intends to marry Prince Mu, and the seven of them continue to call her "Mother," she may not mind, but that doesn't mean Prince Mu won't mind.
"Ha, so now that you've all found your biological parents, you feel it's inappropriate to call me 'Mom' anymore? Oh dear, why am I so unlucky? I was hoping to enjoy life with my seven children, but I never expected them to... Waaah." As Hong Xiaoduo spoke, she pulled out a handkerchief and exaggeratedly wiped away non-existent tears.
Quan Jinghuai, Feiyan, and the six children all knew her personality, and seeing her like this, they all laughed in unison.
“If you’re going to the capital, take us with you. We can go see Sixth Brother. Don’t worry, I promise I won’t call Prince Mu ‘Uncle’,” Tian Shu said after thinking for a moment.
"Stop, stop. Taking you all with me will be too slow. I'll go by myself. There's no room for discussion. As for Kaiyang, maybe I can kidnap him along the way."
"Alright, give me an answer right now: are you going to stay here and wait for me, or go to Tianquan's house and wait for me?" Hong Xiaoduo asked again.
"Now you're worried? What were you doing all this time?" Tianji muttered to himself.
"What did you say? Speak louder." Hong Xiaoduo really didn't hear clearly, but she sensed it wasn't anything nice, otherwise why wouldn't she dare to speak loudly? "I said, where to wait, we'll listen to Mother and Master." Tianji didn't dare to repeat what she had just said loudly, and quickly responded.
Hong Xiaoduo immediately looked at Quan Jinghuai, wanting to hear his opinion.
Quan Jinghuai turned to Tianquan and asked, "What do you think?"
"Me? I... I don't know. I'm fine with anything. Besides, I've already met my father and mother. My father said that my grandparents are in good health, so if I go back a little later, I can write to them and let them know. That should be okay, right?" Tianquan said, scratching his head.
"Alright, you can discuss this slowly. I'm leaving now. At worst, I can just ask Duobaoge where you are before I return." After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards her room. After taking a few steps, she stopped and walked in the direction where Tian Shu's parents had left.
You should at least say hello to them.
In just a quarter of an hour, Hong Xiaoduo strode out carrying the bundle that Feiyan had packed for her.
"Mother, you must come back soon." Yao Guang's voice trembled with tears at the thought of not seeing her for two or three months.
"Okay, don't cry." Hong Xiaoduo turned her head and replied.
"Are you sure you don't need Xiao Hei?" Tian Shu, who was right beside him, asked again.
"No need, no need. It's too much trouble for me to use it while I'm on my way. Let it rest." Hong Xiaoduo replied.
Following closely behind were Censor Luo and his wife. Knowing that Hong Xiaoduo had come to the capital to find Prince Mu, and having also learned what had happened from their son, the couple felt it wouldn't be appropriate to persuade her to stay a few more days.
We offered to arrange a carriage for her, but she said it wasn't necessary. We thought she wanted to ride her original vehicle. Now, listening to her son's conversation, it seems they found another carriage.
Tianxuan wanted to prepare some food for her, but she said there was no need to, she wouldn't go hungry.
Come to think of it, how could she possibly go hungry?
With her gone, everyone will be unable to enjoy the delicious food she "bought" for quite some time.
"Mother, if Sixth Brother can't come along, and he wants you to stay, just agree to it for one day at most," Tianji reminded her.
“Okay, I got it,” Hong Xiaoduo replied patiently.
"Mother..." Yuheng had just opened his mouth when he saw the carriage parked outside the mansion gate.
It looked quite ordinary; the coachman appeared to be in his forties.
When was this prepared? Was it hired?
This carriage doesn't look very sturdy. Everyone, big and small, looked at Hong Xiaoduo.
"Oh, my friend helped me prepare it. You can rest assured when I leave; there will be absolutely no danger or safety issues. Whatever arrangements you make, wait for me. You can't slack off on your studies, whether it's academics or martial arts. I'll be checking when I get back." Hong Xiaoduo hadn't expected that the car she redeemed, which could travel at 120 km/h, would be like this, but thinking about it, being low-key wasn't a bad idea.
After giving Tian Shu and the others a brief and somewhat perfunctory explanation, Hong Xiaoduo quickly got into the car. She waved to them through the car window and then pressed the start button, which appeared out of sight of anyone else outside the car.
The carriage started moving, and Hong Xiaoduo noticed that its speed was no different from that of an ordinary carriage on the street.
"It would have been better to use Xiao Hei. Fortunately, Prince Mu has already rejected Princess Yanxi. Otherwise, at this speed, by the time she arrives in the capital, she'll already have a baby!" Tianquan muttered under his breath.
"Sister Feiyan is older than her, but she's never in such a hurry," Tianji whispered.
"Cough cough, didn't you hear what your mother said? Go inside and practice your skills." Quan Jinghuai looked into the distance, where the carriage was no longer in sight. He hadn't normally spoken to stop the disciples from chirping, but seeing Tian Shu's parents nearby...
If Quan Jinghuai and his disciples were at the city gate at this moment, they would see that the inconspicuous carriage they had seen had already sped far away...
Thank you so much, dear Mu Chuan Mu Zi, for the generous donation of Qidian coins! (づ￣3￣)づ╭～
How's everyone's preparation for the New Year going? Is anyone else like me, with absolutely no feeling that the New Year is coming?
