Remarry 9,000 Years Old

While Linglong was still hesitating about whether she should find an efficacious temple to worship in the first month of the lunar year, the person opposite her had already spoken.

"This is Linglong, right? I haven't seen you for a few years. You've grown into a big girl..."

Mrs. Xu looked at Linglong lovingly, and her expression became even kinder.

"Thank you for taking care of Qiao Qiao all these years. Thank you for your hard work."

Linglong was so excited that she was incoherent. She had a lot to say but couldn't utter a single word. In the end, she could only look to Shen Nanqiao for help.

"Is this...is this...a living lady?"

She wanted to make her words sound less rude, but the extreme surprise hit her brain, causing her to speak incoherently.

Shen Nanqiao nodded.

"It's alive, not a ghost."

Mrs. Shen paused and did not take her daughter's deliberate rebellion to heart.

Linglong stared at the face in front of her without blinking. The face looked 80% like her own lady, and was still as gentle and kind as before.

In the past, she was the daughter of a convicted official and was to be sold to a brothel, but the lady was kind enough to buy her, teach her to read and write, and make her a personal maid for the young lady, providing her with everything from food to clothing.

Who knows that good people don't live long and pass away at a young age? Now seeing someone come back to life, I feel indescribable emotion.

Then his legs went weak and he knelt down, saying with tears in his eyes.

"I never thought that I would have the chance to see Madam again after so many years." She wiped away her tears. "Madam has been away for these years. You don't know how much our young lady has suffered. No matter what the reason is, now that you are back, our young lady will also have her mother's child in the future."

Mrs. Shen felt sad after hearing these words.

Shen Nanqiao turned his head away and forced himself not to speak.

Linglong knew that she had overstepped the boundaries, but having been with Shen Nanqiao for so long, she naturally knew the knot in her heart over the years. She just had the courage to speak up for her master.

Now that his goal had been achieved, he knew that the mother and daughter had been reunited after a long separation and must have a lot of private conversation to share, so he kowtowed respectfully to Mrs. Shen.

"I will be waiting outside. If you need anything, please call me."

Having said that, he retreated.

Mrs. Shen slowly glanced at Shen Nanqiao, then looked at Ning Su beside her, and Ning Su immediately understood.

"Madam, do you want me to stay away too?"

Mrs. Shen wiped the corners of her eyes.

"There is nothing you can't tell others. Now you are husband and wife, and you are a family. There is nothing to avoid."

Having said that, Ning Su has been in the court for many years and is naturally very discerning.

He nodded to Shen Nanqiao.

"You two haven't seen each other for many years. I'm afraid you have something to say. I'm going to the study. If you have anything to say, send someone to call me."

Ning Su left after saying this.

Only mother and daughter were left in the room. Mrs. Shen looked at her daughter whom she had not seen for many years. The lights were bright, and she could see her more clearly.

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

After the initial shock, Shen Nanqiao had regained her composure. She walked to the carved chair and sat down.

Only then did he speak slowly.

"Shen Mingde is not my biological father. I already know this today." She looked at Mrs. Shen, "Whether you are willing to tell me or not, as a child, I think I should at least know who that man is."

Every relationship has a grand beginning, but not every one can have a perfect ending.

Shen Nanqiao was well aware of this truth in her previous life, so she was very curious about what kind of man could make her mother, a lady from a wealthy family, disregard the secular world and take the risk of giving birth to her.

Mrs. Shen shook her head and sighed, as if she didn't know where to start.

"He has a wife?" This was the most reasonable explanation Shen Nanqiao could think of.

Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment, then shook her head to deny it.

"So your parents don't allow it?"

Mrs. Shen shook her head again.

Shen Nanqiao stood up suddenly: "Could it be that the person is gone?"

If this is the case, then my aggressiveness would seem a bit unreasonable. At least I shouldn't rub salt into my mother's wounds.

Mrs. Shen paused, as if considering how to phrase her words.

"This incident was a mistake, not intentional."

wrong!

Shen Nanqiao's brows were tightly knitted.

Given my mother's personality, if she didn't like that person, she would rather die with honor than live with me in this world.

But not only did she give birth to herself, but in order to allow herself to live as the legitimate daughter of the Shen family for a long time, she not only arranged a marriage for her early on, but also gave birth to Shen Hong through Aunt Ma's womb.

The love of the parents is far-reaching.

Her mother must have loved that man so much that she did everything for her, just like Ning Su in her previous life.

Thinking of this, she sighed deeply.

"If you really don't want to talk about it, then forget it," she slowly sat back down, "Back then you said you faked your death because you were forced by the situation. Has Emperor Ming started to doubt your identity?"

Seeing that her daughter stopped asking questions, Mrs. Shen calmed down.

"Before the current emperor ascended the throne, he and I had met several times, and he also tried to probe me in his words and deeds. I guess he must have discovered some clues, so he didn't dare to take the risk with the whole Shen family, so he had to resort to this last resort."

For some reason, Shen Nanqiao suddenly thought of Madam Xia.

She had a childhood friendship with Emperor Ming and had a close personal relationship with her mother. If she had discovered something, it would make sense that she wanted to use Emperor Ming to get rid of her mother.

But before the matter was concluded, she didn't want to let her mother know so soon that she had believed in the wrong people when she was young.

After all, she had already met a man who was not worthy of entrusting her life to. If she knew that she was not careful in making friends...

Shen Nanqiao took a deep breath.

"It's getting late today. If there's anything, there's plenty of time. I'll have someone arrange for mother to rest first."

Mrs. Shen looked up suddenly.

"What did you just call me?"
