Chapter 712: Song Hexiang in the woodshed

 

The woman reluctantly said to the maidservant: “Then, you can’t stay long. If Houye found out, I can’t afford it.” She said and stuffed the purse into her sleeve, then pulled the keys hanging on her waist. She unlocked the door and let Xiachen in.

Seeing the door opened, Pei Xiachen rushed in. The room was very dark and there was no light. And a foul smell immediately entered her nose. Fortunately, there was enough air in the room. Otherwise, the smell would be stronger.

Under the moonlight leaking from the broken window, she saw her mother curling up in the corner of the room. Her body was trembling constantly. Although she couldn’t see her face, she could still imagine her embarrassment at this time.

“Niang—” She sobbed as she rushed forward in front of her mother, hugged her tightly, and started crying loudly.

After she cried a few times, a cold and faint voice suddenly sounded: “Second Miss has admitted the wrong person, I am not your niang.” She hated Song Hexiang. If it weren’t for Song Hexiang’s instigation and encouragement. She will not commit such a big mistake.

When the incident happened that year, she was not too concerned about it. But later on, she learned that this Madam Pei was not the daughter of an ordinary family. Her father was Dongfang Mu, the favorite minister of two dynasties. Miss Dongfang was his only daughter. So once this incidence was revealed, not only Changyuan Houfu but also Dongfang Family will peel off her skin. The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it. How could she have been so greedy with just 10 taels of gold? If she were not greedy for these 10 taels of gold, there would no such a disaster today.

Pei Xiachen stopped crying and raised her head to look at the person in front of her. It was really not her mother, but a wrinkled old woman.

“Chen’er, I am here!” Song Hexiang’s weak and hoarse voice came from another corner.

Pei Xiachen hurriedly moved in front of Song Hexiang, clutching her hand and crying: “Niang, how are you? Are you okay?”

Song Hexiang bitterly smiled: “I am here, so how am I good?” She suddenly looked up and stared at her daughter: “Chen’er, have you seen your father?”

Pei Xiachen nodded her head while wiping her tears: “I went to see him. I also took my two younger brothers and knelt outside the door of my father’s room for a day, but my father was very angry. I heard that he passed out after vomiting blood. ”

Song Hexiang’s heart trembled. She didn’t expect that Pei Qinghan would have such a big reaction and vomit blood with anger. He usually showed his disgust towards Dongfang Wan in front of her. Was it all fake?

“What did your father say?” She grabbed her daughter’s hand and asked anxiously.

Pei Xiachen shook her head. Tears kept falling from her face: “Father, he refused to let you go, saying that you committed a heinous crime. Niang, what did you do wrong? Why did he have such a reaction?”

 

Song Hexiang kept her silent. She never planned to tell her daughter about these things. Her daughter thought naively that her father didn’t like Dongfang Wan. She only thought that Pei Qinghan found Dongfang Wan annoying, so he was disgusted to her. Her daughter didn’t know that the first child of her father almost died because she hired someone to kill it.

Now that retribution was coming, she only hoped the heaven to let retribution fell on her body, and don’t involve her daughter.

 

“Chen’er, starting from today, don’t try to see me again. You must completely cut off your relationship with me, and don’t intercede for me. Only in this way, your father will not blame you because of me, and you can still have a good future. Otherwise, otherwise—” She choked and couldn’t go on. Her daughter was her life. She wants to be with her all the time, gives her the best life, and watch her have a happy married life.
