Quickly spit out the dragon god's pregnant fruit

Not long after, the thin red figure appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Mudan didn't know how she told the turtle slave, and she came here alone.

When she approached, Xiao Lian saw that Mudan's knees softened and she knelt down in front of him.

Xiao Lian was shocked, and hurried forward to help her up: "Peony, what are you doing?"

Peony dodged Xiao Lian's hand a little bit, stubbornly refusing to get up.She raised her face slightly, with tears in her eyes: "Grandfather, Mudan didn't do it on purpose, you forgive Mudan."

Xiao Lian didn't know what happened, but he had never been kneeled by anyone.He felt dizzy when he saw this situation, and quickly increased his strength to help Peony out of the snow: "There is nothing to forgive or not to forgive, I have never been angry with you. What's wrong? You speak slowly."

He thought Peony was talking about her leaving without saying goodbye that day.

Mudan stood up following his strength, looked at the coachman not far away, seemed to be scrupulous, wiped her tears slightly and said: "It's windy here, benefactor, let's go into the carriage and talk."

Xiao Lian agreed.

The coachman brought the car over and stood aside at a distance.

Xiao Lian signaled Peony to get into the carriage to avoid the wind, but he turned around and sat in the driver's seat to avoid suspicion.He turned his head slightly, facing the carriage and asked, "What's wrong?"

In the carriage, Mudan's faint voice came: "Your Majesty, you have finally returned to the Marquis' Mansion. But Mudan didn't intend to deceive the Marquis, you have to believe that my intention was for your own good, and everything was wrong."

To be recognized by Peony as the prince of the Hou family?Intuition told Xiao Lian that there might be something he didn't know.He didn't say anything, he wanted to hear more from Peony.

"Your Majesty?" Perhaps Xiao Lian didn't reply, but Mudan couldn't see Xiao Lian's expression, so her heart was beating a bit.

"You say, I listen."

In the carriage, Peony hesitated.But after experiencing what happened on the Baisha River that day, she thought she still knew Xiao Lian.After weighing the pros and cons, she opened her mouth: "Since that day we parted..."

Xiao Lian never interrupted, he listened quietly to Peony, and finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

It turned out that after Peony left that day, she moved to Jiangcheng to stay.Here, her child was seriously ill, which cost a lot of money.She only has the ingot of gold given by Bai Jiao in her hand.Food and clothing, clothing, housing, and transportation all need money, but she has no other means to earn money, so she can only sit and eat.

She had no choice but to join the prostitution again.But this time she learned how to be good, and informed Yixianglou's madam of the existence of the child in advance, and agreed that if the child grows up safely in the future and she is not redeemed, she will let the child be a turtle slave here, and it will be considered as a bowl for him eat.In this way, the mother and son settled down in Yixiang Building.

She took off the clothes off Xiao Lian's shoulders that day, found the petal birthmark, thought it was pretty, and imitated the pattern and tattooed it on it, but the drinkers in Yixianglou liked it very much.Although Mudan is a newcomer, she looks handsome and is not that old, so she is not left out in the cold.

That day Jiang Xu, who is now the owner of the Zhongninghou Mansion, also came here to eat flower wine.It is Peony for company.

The reason why Jiang Xu is said to be the master of the Marquis Mansion, but not the Marquis, is that he has to talk about the origin of the title of Marquis of Zhongning.

Here is the girder.At that time, Zhong Ning Bo fought the world with the founding emperor, and made great contributions.But the emperor then let go of the grind and killed the donkey, looking for a reason to take back the military power from the heroes.

Zhong Ningbo felt that he was a master of high meritorious service, and he was afraid that he would be driven out to death, so he asked himself to surrender his military power.The emperor felt his loyalty, so he promoted him to Zhongninghou. As long as Zhongninghou's mansion did not commit heinous crimes, he would never be deprived of his title to show the greatness of the emperor's grace.The first generation of Zhongning Hou happened to have only one daughter.The emperor deliberately made an exception, saying that such a situation could benefit his grandson.

Now it is very similar to that in the past, the old Hou Ye only had an only daughter, so he wanted to catch a son-in-law for the only daughter, and Jiang Xu was the one who caught him.The only daughter is jealous, but Jiang Xu treats his wife very well and never takes concubines.The two had a son named Jiangye.

Seeing that his son-in-law loves his only daughter, and that the Hou Mansion has successors, and after making Jiangye his eldest son, the old Hou Ye felt relieved to hand over the Hou Mansion to Jiang Xu.After the old Lord Hou left, the world honored Jiang Xu as Lord Hou.But the real title of Lord Marquis will have to wait for Jiang Ye to inherit it when he becomes an adult.

Marquis Zhongning has no real power, and is a vain position that only takes money and does not work.Jiang Ye was loved by thousands of people since he was a child, and was raised to be a cockfighting playboy.Not long ago, Jiang Ye was forced to tame the horse by his friends, but he accidentally fell off the horse and died.

His mother was so hurt that she also had a sudden illness.It doesn't matter if they go, but it ruins the roots of Zhongning Hou that lasted for a hundred years.

Seeing that the Hou Mansion will be taken back soon, Jiang Xu, a son-in-law, has no power to recover.He was so depressed that he came to Yixianglou to drink flower wine, and came to Wenrou Township to find the Xieyuhua.

It was Mudan who served Jiang Xu at that time, and Jiang Xu was so drunk that he spit out so many words.

Unexpectedly, when Jiang Xu saw the tattoo on Peony's shoulder, he grabbed Peony and asked where Peony learned it from.

Mudan then said that she saw this birthmark on a man in Baisha Town and thought it looked good, so she got it tattooed.

After Jiang Xu heard this, he cried and laughed, with a terrifying expression on his face.

Mudan thought he was looking for revenge, thinking that Xiao Lian was kind to her, and he was just a boatman, so he couldn't beat the Houfu.When Jiang Xu asked about this man's appearance and identity, she was vague about his appearance, and only said that she had seen this man in Baisha Town a long time ago, but she didn't know his identity, and he looked about teens.

Peony made vague remarks, thinking that she could get away with it.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for Jiang Xu to find a man with the same birthmark, and asked Mudan to identify if it was that person.

Mudan wanted to protect Xiao Lian, so she recognized him.After she was sent back to Yixiang Building, she secretly rejoiced that she had saved her benefactor.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long before news came that Mrs. Jiang Xu gave birth to twins at that time, and the vicious woman who stole the children had been found.Right now, the Hou Mansion is going to hold a banquet to celebrate.

It was only then that Mudan realized that her one mistake had actually damaged the wealth of her benefactor.

She wanted to talk to Jiang Xu, saying that she had identified the wrong person.But thinking about it again, after sealing the river, she couldn't bring her benefactor to confront her.If she changed her words hastily, she was just a prostitute, teasing the Hou Mansion like this, trampling her face under her feet, she simply didn't know how to live or die.

Looking at the sick child, she was timid after all and didn't dare to talk too much.

Today Mudan saw Xiao Lian coming and going in and out of the Marquis' mansion in rich clothes, and thought that Xiao Lian had heard the news that he had come to recognize his ancestors, so she begged him to remember that she was also eager to protect him, it was all a coincidence, so she begged him to forgive her mother and son. people.

Xiao Lian didn't speak for a long time after hearing all this.He was shocked.

If these words are true, he should be the son of Jiang Xu, the son of the Hou family, then Jiang Chen should be a counterfeit.But when he thought about it again, he felt suspicious.

Father knew of the existence of himself and Lin Niang. 16 years ago, he also recognized himself.If Mudan's words are true, his father should welcome him back to the Hou Mansion at that time.

If Liu Guanshi's words were true, Lin Niang was going to gamble for a fortune by stealing from herself. Since she was so young, Lin Niang hadn't raised herself well, so she shouldn't have looked forward to seeing her father every day.It was too late for her to hide from her father, how could she cry secretly when she thought of him.

There is something else hidden about this matter, someone must be lying.

The situation in the Hou Mansion is unclear, so the so-called recognition of the ancestors and returning to the clan is still forgotten.For so long, his father hadn't given him a day of fatherly love, and he was the culprit that caused the mother and child to separate. He would not recognize him.

Besides, if he can really recognize his ancestor and return to his clan, the title of Marquis of Zhongning will also be taken back when he dies.Although he has no relationship with his father, there is no need to disturb his wealth.

Still follow the original plan, wait for Bai Jiao to recover and rescue his mother.But what Peony said today is not useless.If the matter is revealed and the two are caught by the Hou family, this identity can be used as a talisman when they have to.

After Peony finished speaking, she closed her eyes and waited for Xiao Lian's trial, but Xiao Lian didn't answer for a long time.As time passed, Peony's heart became more and more heavy.

Could it be that I misjudged the person and benefactor refused to forgive her?Her life is worthless, but she still has children.

Peony was so frightened that she scrambled and got out of the carriage. When she came to the carriage, she knelt down again, sobbing: "Grandfather, my son, my child is still sick. You just don't remember the mistakes of the villain, and I want to protect you." I have made a mistake, and I am very timid, please show mercy and forgive me. I will follow you back to the Marquis Mansion, expose the face of the fake son, and help you prove your identity."

Xiao Lian was thinking about something, but unexpectedly scared Mudan.Hearing Mudan's words, he quickly jumped out of the carriage and helped her up: "Don't be afraid, I don't blame you. I've been a boatman for half my life, so I don't have a life of happiness. I don't want to be a prince, please don't be rude to me, Miss Peony. Anyone mention my identity. This time I went in and out of the Hou's mansion for other things, so you don't have to worry about Hou Ye making trouble for you. "

Peony stopped her tears: "Really?"

"Really, wipe away your tears. I'm a rough person, but I don't have a handkerchief for you." Xiao Lian spread his empty hands, feeling helpless.

Mudan burst into laughter, she took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, dabbed it on the corner of her eye, and said: "Engong is not going to recognize the ancestor and return to the clan, so I can't ask the reason. It's just that what does Engong come and go in and out of the Marquis Mansion? He has no status as a son, Engong is probably of low status. Although I am poor and humble, I can see Lord Hou. If Engong does not dislike it, I may be able to help."

Xiao Lian was a little moved, but then he thought about it, since he decided not to be Lao Shizi's heir, it would be best not to meet Lord Hou and Jiang Chen.But these words reminded him: "Then before you come to Hou Mansion next time, can you please inform me?"

These words... Peony is a little embarrassed.But she raised her eyes to look at Xiao Lian, and seeing Xiao Lian's sincere words, she didn't mean to look down on her at all.

Maybe benefactor really has something to ask for.Mudan nodded: "It's just benefactor, how can I contact you when the time comes?"

"Just ask someone to tell the old doctor or Li Qing of Tong Shan Tang that "Du Shiniang" is going to be sung on the stage."

"Peony remembers it."

Xiao Lian also asked Mudan if she knew more about Niang Lin, but her words were the same as that of Butler Liu, and she also stated that Master Hou had told her all these things.

Xiao Lian had no choice but to give up.

After that, Xiao Lian gave Mudan all the money for the crabs sold today, and asked her to go back and get more medicine for the child.He also stated that Old Doctor Chen of Tung Sin Tang is very kind and caring, and loves children the most.She can change doctors for her children.

Peony was very moved, she only knew that she had written down everything Xiao Lian said.

Before the two parted, Xiao Lian suggested that the two walk out of the alley one after the other, so that the peony would not be difficult for the turtle slave to see.

Peony started walking a few steps and turned her head.When she was almost at the entrance of the alley, she knelt in Xiao Lian's direction for a long time before turning around and leaving without looking back.

Xiao Lian waited for the red figure to disappear for a moment, got into the car and changed back into his old clothes, and then called the driver again to drive the car.

It has been so long since he came out of the Hou's mansion, and the coachman has been waiting for a long time.This time Xiao Lian didn't ask the driver to detour, but only asked him to stop in front of Tongshan Hall.

After Xiao Lian went in and asked Old Doctor Chen and Li Qing to pay attention to the message, he hurried back to the carriage and let the driver speed back to the Jiang'an Painting Boat.

He missed little Baijiao who was alone in the boat, and didn't pay much attention to his surroundings.Therefore, when he came out of Tong Shan Tang, he didn't see the flashing figure at the corner of the wall.
