Chapter 619 Fake Death
"No, no, I don't have those feelings for him."
Du Mingxian chuckled, "If you don't have those feelings for him, why do you care about him so much? You only started taking care of him after his mother passed away. Although you are a concubine, you have always been in charge of the entire household and sometimes even have to go out and socialize."
“You may have put a lot of energy into him, but your feelings for him have gone beyond those of a mother and son.”
Aunt Liu remained silent, as if deep in thought, unsure of what to do.
Du Mingxian stared at her, "You came here today asking me for this favor, but we can't help you. That's your family matter, and it's better for you to handle it behind closed doors. We can't say anything about it."
"Okay, I'll take a look." Aunt Liu seemed less insistent on Du Mingxian's help, and before leaving, she added, "He looks a lot like him."
Du Mingxian kept thinking about this on her way back to the courtyard.
He looks a lot like him.
Is it because Young Master Zhao looks like the previous woman that she has fallen in love with the adopted son she raised?
She couldn't understand it.
Back in the courtyard, seeing the child, she recalled what Aunt Liu had just told her, and felt quite shocked.
Xiangyang muttered to himself, "Madam, did that person fall in love with her adopted son because he looks like her ex-fiancé?"
"That's it."
Xiang Yang looked on with a sigh.
At this moment, Xia Yu walked in and said, "Madam, Lord Wen has arrived."
"Please come in quickly."
Wen Yibin went straight into the main courtyard. After he came in, Du Mingxian noticed that Zhao Di and Hu Zi were with him.
She was happy to see the two of them. "It's so good that you're both doing well."
Zhao Di and Hu Zi immediately knelt down before her.
"If it weren't for my aunt, I might have died this time."
Du Mingxian stepped forward and helped the person up, saying, "Speak properly. We don't do that kind of thing where people kneel down all the time."
"I...I'm just happy."
"Get up and talk, you can still talk." Seeing that Hu Zi was kneeling and not moving, Du Mingxian stepped forward and pulled him up. "Have you seen your mother?"
"I saw her. The adults said my sister is being raised elsewhere, which will allow our family of three to be reunited."
"Very good." Du Mingxian liked Hu Zi quite a bit. "You're a smart kid, and your future won't be bad."
"Thank you ma'am."
He was lucky. If he hadn't met his wife, his sister and mother certainly wouldn't have survived, and she herself might not have survived either.
Tiger didn't get up. Even though Du Mingxian tried to stop him, he still kowtowed three times before he finally stood up.
Wen Yibin watched the two of them go back and forth.
After the two kowtowed, they got up and left without staying. Du Mingxian watched them leave, then turned to Wen Yibin and asked, "Did Fourth Uncle tell them to leave?"
"Is it possible that they were perceptive enough to know that standing here was inappropriate, so they simply left?"
Du Mingxian didn't believe a word of it.
"They just wanted to come and thank you. Anyway, we've already arranged a place for them, and it's a good place, so they're happy. They wanted to tell you that without you, they wouldn't be where they are today."
Du Mingxian was also happy, saying, "They are all kind people, and they deserve a good life."
"Yes, from the moment they met you, they embarked on a good life."
Du Mingxian chuckled.
When do you plan to die?
Du Mingxian turned around, somewhat surprised, "Isn't this something you guys are arranging? I'll go whenever you decide when. But I've already prepared everything, so I can leave right away."
Wen Yibin sighed deeply, unable to hide the envy in his eyes. "How should I put it? You guys are so lucky. Look at you, you just left like that, leaving me all alone here, facing a whole bunch of things and a bunch of annoying people."
"Since Fourth Uncle was able to come to Ping County, he must have already taken care of some things."
"Some things have been dealt with, but some things haven't been dealt with yet. There's still so much to do." Wen Yibin was feeling really bad. He also wanted to go to his niece's house with her.
Du Mingxian said lightly, "The capable should do more. Fourth Uncle is a capable person, so he should get more."
"Thank you, that's very kind of you."
"As long as Fourth Uncle likes to hear it, then we should naturally say what Fourth Uncle likes to hear."
Wen Yibin, "..."
"We're leaving before Fourth Uncle. If Fourth Uncle finishes his other business and has time, he can come visit us. Our village has beautiful scenery, fresh air, and nice people. We're sure you'll have a great time."
Wen Yibin was somewhat tempted by her words, "Is it really that good?"
"Of course, it's still wrong. Fourth Uncle should believe me."
"Okay, I believe you. I'll come find you once I've finished my business here."
"it is good."
After the two finished talking, the group had dinner together that evening, and their plans to fake their deaths were put on the agenda.
With Wen Yibin here to oversee things, there shouldn't be any trouble.
The day before faking her death, Du Mingxian stumbled upon another piece of gossip.
The wife of Master Liu, who had been seeking doctors everywhere to father a child, had actually already given birth to a child outside of their marriage. Master Liu was unable to have children, so she had one with someone else.
Master Liu had always doted on that concubine, but Madam Liu secretly transferred a lot of her assets to her, then broke off the engagement and divorced her. Now that he has established his own household, he immediately took the child she had given birth to into his life.
This infuriated Master Liu, who came directly to his door to file a complaint.
Du Mingxian was stunned when she heard the news. Madam Liu looked like a weak and easy-to-bully person, but she had such courage. Indeed, one should be careful of dogs that don't bite.
They are all people who quietly accomplish great things.
"Madam, we are leaving tomorrow, but this Master Liu has come up to file a complaint. Should we not leave for the time being?"
"Of course I'm leaving. My fourth uncle is still here. I think he likes this kind of life; it's his old profession."
Xia Yu fell silent when she thought of Wen Yibin's former position; it seemed to be true.
On the day of the faked death, Du Mingxian and Ling Silang left with the child. When they were outside the city, they changed to a carriage that was already waiting. The carriage they were in was then filled with two recently deceased corpses and burned together by the Crown Prince's men.
They don't need to worry about the rest; Wen Yibin will handle it for them.
The journey home always felt incredibly pleasant. Du Mingxian and Ling Silang both felt extremely relaxed because they walked slowly and weren't in a hurry. An'an stayed outside, playing as they walked. This was truly a real field trip.
It was two months later when I finally got home.
With several skilled men, including Chunfeng, protecting them along the way, they didn't encounter any unpleasant incidents.
A group of three carriages carried Du Mingxian and her family of three in the front, Dong Shi with her grandson in the back, and at the very back were some of their everyday belongings, as well as some gifts that Du Mingxian had specially bought for the family.
