Blissful Days After Widowhood - Chapter 231

At the time they were together, both of them were disguised, and since they had not seen each other for many years, they had no idea that the person in front of them was their nominal other half.

Later, she saw his face with his birthmark removed and his body after his shrunken bones lifted. Then just by his different body shape, she could recognize him.

But Wu Qingyi had never seen her original appearance, and he was really excited. His eyes were always fixed on his mother, so she forgave him for not recognizing her.

That was why he was so surprised when he heard her speak, and asked why it was her.

“As soon as he entered the room, he said that he would not divorce and wanted to treat Ye as his own son?”

That was to say, before he knew that Gu Ye was adopted, he only knew that she was his nominal wife, and he no longer wanted to divorce.

“Yes, I didn’t even finish speaking. But why are you asking again?” Mrs. Wang looked strangely at Gu Yin, who was also smiling, and muttered, “It’s over, you’ve become a fool!”

“Go and rest, mother, I’ll call you for lunch  later.”

Gu Yin bumped her with her elbow, and Mrs. Wang was really sleepy. Seeing that there was not much work in the kitchen, she obediently returned to the room and lay down.

Wu Qingyi was still in the room, but he kept his eyes on the door.

As soon as Mrs. Wang came in, he also stood up.

She pointed at him and said, “It’s our ancestor’s accumulation of virtue, and it’s also you boy who has good luck. You got such a good wife. Da Ya didn’t get angry from your words.”

Wu Qing’s expression loosened, and Mrs. Wang, who climbed onto the kang, said again, “Come here, I’ll remove the dust from your clothes. You are a general, but your clothes are very ugly.”

Wu Qingyi sat beside her obediently, and Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand to him, and found that something was wrong.

Wu Qingyi’s clothes were half dry. At first she thought it was the dew in the morning, but later she found that her palms turned red, and then she realized it was blood.

“Son, are you injured?”

Wu Qingyi said, “It’s not my blood.”

When he was besieging and suppressing the abolished Emperor before, Wu Qingyi realized that something was wrong—their large army would never be able to catch up with the abolished Emperor. It was as if the other party knew in advance when they would rush to march and when to stop for supplies.

With that, he discovered that there was naturally a spy of the court next to him.

That was why he was the commander-in-chief of the first army, so he chose to hide his name, change his appearance, and sneak up to the Emperor’s side to assassinate him.

After returning to the capital, Wu Qingyi naturally had to find the person. In fact, he also knew who it was.

That time he returned home, he specially did not bring his henchmen, and only chose those few suspicious subordinates.

Xiao Zuo also sensed his suspicion, and made his move not long after he left the capital.

Although he was well prepared and lay in ambush on the road, in the end, Wu Qingyi was slightly better.

But in the end, it still took some time, thinking that before leaving Beijing, Father Wu repeatedly explained that the time of lunar July 15 could not be missed, Wu Qingyi rushed back first, thinking of making the family’s graves on that day first.

From his own mother, Wu Qingyi had nothing to hide. He only omitted the process of dealing with Xiao Zuo in the middle and fighting with real swords.

“Father also gave mother a lot of paper money, but he is slow, and can’t deliver it until the evening.”

Mrs. Wang waved her hand indifferently and said, “We are alive, what paper money do we need? Just let him throw them in the old place and burn them, and save running back and forth.”

After saying that, she asked Wu Qingyi to undress.

When the eldest son was a child, he didn’t tell anyone what happened, and Mrs. Wang was afraid that he was injured and hid it.

Wu Qingyi took off his clothes to his waist. After careful inspection, there was indeed no new injury on his body, but when she saw the old wounds criss-crossing his body and chest, her eyes were red.

“My son is blessed with great luck!” Mrs Wang said in a heartache.

It was at this time that Gu Yin entered the room with the dishes.

“Mother, it’s time to eat.”

When she entered, she saw extremely strong muscles, and a gibbous waist. Although there were many old wounds, it was not terrifying, but added a frightening wildness.

Wu Qingyi immediately put on his clothes with a blushing face, and turned around to straighten the placket.

“I’m sorry,” Gu Yin glanced at him and turned around immediately.

The two were back to back, and neither dared to turn around first.

Mrs. Wang was completely stunned by their reaction. Seeing that their ears were so red that they were about to burn, she said, “What’s the matter? It’s okay, it’s time for lunch.”

It really didn’t matter. When they set up stalls on the pier, the coolies were not so particular about it. There were many people who wore open-cardiac vests and had their chests open. As a transmigrator, Gu Yin wasn’t supposed to make a fuss when she saw that.

Just now when he saw her come in, he suddenly panicked.

Thinking of that, Gu Yin turned around and put the tray on the table.
