After she became the daughter of a vicious warlord, she cleaned herself up

Jiang Shiyuan was carefully examining a piece of moon-white brocade with dark patterns when he suddenly heard a tearful call in his ears.

"Axue!"

She heard the voice and slowly turned around.

I saw a woman in a dark green brocade cheongsam standing three steps away from me, her eyes slightly red and tears flashing.

The years have left faint traces on her face, but it has not diminished her elegant temperament at all, but has added a bit of maturity.

This is Gu Fangxun, the proprietress of Sui'an Custom-made, and the legendary comrade "Golden Threaded Clothes".

Jiang Shiyuan looked at the legendary figure in front of him calmly, and couldn't help but admire him secretly in his heart.

What a beautiful lady with lingering charm!

At this time, Gu Fangxun also saw clearly the graceful girl in front of him.

Her features do bear some resemblance to "Axue", but they cannot be the same person.

Gu Fangxun quickly suppressed her excitement, nodded slightly, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry just now and recognized the wrong person..."

After apologizing, Gu Fangxun felt a little surprised again.

Isn’t this girl Jiang Shiyuan, the second daughter of the Jiang family who had an affair with Fang Lansheng and was in the newspapers every other day?

Her other identity is "Shennong", a senior agent of the Military Control Commission.

I didn't expect that this young girl who had just discussed with Fang Lansheng last night and was gradually moving closer to the organization, would come to my door today!

Jiang Shiyuan was thinking about it, although the original drama of "The Lantern Bearer" did not mention Gu Fangxun's personal story other than the red cause.

But according to the story development tone of "no coincidence, no story", she was able to mistake herself for an old friend and call herself "Axue".

That old friend should be the original owner's deceased mother, Ms. Zhong Xue Ning without a doubt.

Jiang Shiyuan pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Just now I heard you, the boss lady, call my mother by her nickname. Could it be that... you know my mother?"

The proprietress's eyes, which had been dimming, brightened up again, and she asked anxiously, "Is your mother Zhong Xue Ning, the daughter of the Zhong family in Jinling?"

"That's right!" Jiang Shiyuan nodded, then lowered his eyes sadly and sighed, "It's a pity that my mother..."

Gu Fangxun was so excited to learn more than 20 years later that his good friend from his youth did not die in the fire.

She hurriedly held Jiang Shiyuan's hand, "How about your mother... is she okay? How has she been doing these years?"

Jiang Shiyuan gently pulled his hand away, shook his head, with a hint of sadness in his tone.

"My mother...died of illness when I was ten years old."

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Gu Fangxun was stunned where he stood, as if he had been struck by lightning, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

How could this be?

The lively, cheerful and talented Xue Ning had clearly escaped death, so how could she...

Jiang Shiyuan felt sorry for Gu Fangxun's grief-stricken look, so he decided to tell some white lies.

She comforted him softly, "Boss lady, don't be too sad. My mother often mentioned you to me when she was alive. She said you were her best friend and also said..."

"What else is there to say?" Gu Fangxun raised her head and looked at Jiang Shiyuan with tearful eyes, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"She also said that if there is a chance, she would definitely work with you on another piece of Suzhou embroidery."

Jiang Shiyuan paused, then continued: "It's a pity that she couldn't realize this wish after all..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Fangxun could no longer hold back the grief in her heart and sobbed softly with her hands covering her face.

Seeing this, Jiang Shiyuan said no more and just stood quietly by the side, waiting for Gu Fangxun to calm down.

After a long while, Gu Fangxun stopped crying. She looked up at Jiang Shiyuan, her eyes full of reminiscence.

"Miss Jiang, can you tell me about your mother's life?"

"We haven't seen each other for more than 20 years since the fire at the Suzhou Embroidery Workshop..."

Jiang Shiyuan nodded and said slowly: "My mother was a Chinese medicine practitioner who saved people's lives. She had outstanding medical skills and a kind heart. She was very famous in Jinling."

"She also had the foresight to establish Jiayuan Pharmaceutical in Shanghai, determined to bring advanced Western medical technology back to China to benefit the people."

"My father was Marshal Jiang, a famous warlord in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area. He fell in love with my mother at first sight, and they were very loving after they got married."

"My mother later gave birth to my brother Jiang Shijia and me, Jiang Shiyuan. Originally, our family lived in harmony and happiness."

"Unfortunately, there are unexpected events in life. My mother died when I was ten years old due to years of studying medicine and overwork..."

When he said this, Jiang Shiyuan's voice choked up and his eyes turned slightly red.

Gu Fangxun listened very carefully, as if she had returned to the days when she first met and got to know Zhong Xue Ning.

"Your mother is still the same as she was back then, smart, kind, and hardworking..."

Gu Fangxun murmured to himself, his eyes full of nostalgia and regret.

"Xiaoyuan, can I call you Xiaoyuan?"

"You look so much like your mother, especially your eyes, which are just as clear and bright..."

Gu Fangxun took Jiang Shiyuan's hand and stroked it gently, as if he was touching the deceased through her.

"By the way, Xiaoyuan, has your mother ever told you about the time when we were learning Suzhou embroidery in Suzhou City?"

"Yes, I mentioned it." Jiang Shiyuan's brain was working quickly, and he smiled and said, "My mother once said that those were the few most fulfilling and happiest days in her life."

"Yes, I also always remember that carefree time..." A trace of reminiscence flashed in Gu Fangxun's eyes.

"At that time, your mother and I were only fourteen or fifteen years old, at the age of youth and full of energy."

"We studied Suzhou embroidery together in a well-known embroidery workshop in Suzhou City. We spent every day together and became as close as sisters."

"Your mother is very intelligent and deft. She quickly mastered the essence of Suzhou embroidery. Her embroidered works are so lifelike that even the master praised them highly."

"But I am clumsy and can never learn those complicated needle techniques. I am often scolded by my master."

"Every time this happened, your mother would always come to my rescue and patiently teach me how to practice in private until I mastered it..."

"Your mother told me that she ran away from the Zhong family in Jinling secretly because she was dissatisfied with the arranged marriage in her family."

"We two sisters often share our little secrets in the dead of night and talk about our future life plans. We even wanted to learn the kesi weaving technique in Suzhou together..."

"But the good times didn't last long. The embroidery workshop suddenly caught fire. The two of us had already escaped, but your mother was kind-hearted and went back to save a few of her companions. In the end, she was exhausted and didn't make it out of the fire."

"I didn't expect that she would be blessed by heaven and miraculously escape death..."

Speaking of this, Gu Fangxun's eyes became moist again.

Jiang Shiyuan listened quietly, feeling deeply moved.

She also didn't expect that the original owner's mother and this comrade "Jinluyi" actually had such a deep friendship.

It seems that this trip to Sui'an Clothing Customization Store was really a good decision!

According to Jiang Shiyuan's many years of experience in reading online novels, the time traveler should have come through the fire that year.

The original Ms. Zhong Xue Ning was able to come back to life, and later she became a doctor to save the world, married a warlord, and established an advanced pharmaceutical factory. The more you look at it, the more it looks like a classic online novel routine of a warlord's spoiled wife in the Republic of China...

At this moment, Jiang Shiyuan couldn't help but come up with a very bold idea!

The Republic of China time and space that she traveled through three days ago may not just be a parallel world of the hit spy drama "The Lantern Bearer".

Or maybe it was mixed with a piece of literature written by a lady on the Internet about a domineering warlord who doted on his wife?
