Chapter 144

his voice to urge the soldiers to lay down their weapons and move aside.The emperor, listening to Lin Qingwen's words of persuasion, came to his senses and saw that soldiers were indeed putting down...Liu's eyes lit up and she said, "Ah Tang, this is it. Zheng came to our house yesterday and said that someone would be coming to the village in a few days to take Mr. An's family to the capital. Your grandfather, grandmother, and the headman are all guessing that this so-called Mr. An must be your father, so...so should you stay at home If it really is your father, we can go to the capital with him and enjoy ourselves."

Could a person who disappeared eighteen years ago really be him

An Xuetang fell silent for a moment, then narrowed her eyes and said, "Mother, have you ever thought that even if that Master An is your so-called husband and my supposed father, do you really think he sent people back this time to take us A man who disappeared for eighteen years, are you really sure he didn't marry and have children in the capital"

"……"

An Xuetang's words were like a basin of cold water splashed down, chillingly hitting Liu Shi's heart.

Her face turned pale.

She had been so happy these past few days that she had lost her head and never thought about this issue, but An Xuetang's words suddenly reminded her of it in a fatal way.

Yes, if a man hadn't died and truly became an official in the imperial court, how could he have remained unmarried and without children all these years

If he were to marry and have children in the capital, what would she be

What is she, a simple Ah Tang

An Xuetang saw her expression and knew she must have reacted, but she didn't know how she planned to face it.

For a long time, the two remained silent. Liu shi, her mind elsewhere, finally spoke, "Ah Tang, are you really not staying No matter what, you're his daughter, he wouldn't mistreat you."

"Hmph," An Xuetang scoffed with a mocking laugh. "A man who has spent eighteen years indulging himself, do you think he would be good to me, his daughter whom he's never met"

Besides, if this An Dashan is really her stepfather, then he must have a purpose for coming back this time.

Otherwise, if a person disappeared for so many years and suddenly reappeared, if it were said that he had a change of heart and wanted to come back to make amends, An Xuetang would never believe it.

What kind of upbringing would Wang Shi and An Fugui's children have, to be so morally upright

Liu shi couldn't argue with An Xue Tang's words. She sighed now, "Mother is just worried, ah Tang, you are following a husband who can't walk properly, life won't be as good as if you were in the capital."

"You don't have to worry about that," An Xuetang said calmly. "I just want to ask you one last time, are you really not coming with me If your husband truly takes another wife and has children, what will you do then"

Liu Shi pursed her lips, remained silent for a long time before speaking, “Since mother has already married him, what else can I do but follow him”

"……"

An Xue Tang was speechless. The premise is that Master An would be willing to let you follow her, right

I'm afraid that An Shiren must already have beauties on either side in the capital, forgetting who you even are!

But An Xuetang didn't say those words aloud to discourage her. Since Liu shi wasn't leaving, An Xuetang also stopped persuading her and directly said goodbye before returning to the wooden house.

By now, Ding Hua had already dealt with the bodies in the courtyard. When An Xue Tang returned, the two of them climbed over the mountain and back onto the carriage, heading back to the manor.

An Xuetang was in a bad mood all the way because she kept thinking about the so-called "Master An" in her mind.

But when she entered the inner courtyard and saw Mo Yunjing sitting there waiting for her, the coldness on her face instantly vanished. She ran towards Mo Yunjing, squatting in front of him, grabbed his big hand, and smiled sweetly, "Ah Jing, I'm back."osives are already in their hands, the consequences will be unimaginable."Feng Ming's expression also turned gloomy. He nodded slightly at this moment, "Rest assured, I'll arrange it later. But to be...
