Chapter 612: Lucky Star
Dongfang Wan paused and said: “Although my child is gone, I sewed with all my heart into this dress. When I leave this world, I will take these clothes with me. If I can see my child in the underworld, no matter how old she is, I have clothes for her. How good it is!”
Cui’er’s eyes reddened, while Bai Zhi’s eyes were wet.
Bai Zhi secretly wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. She swore secretly inside her heart, that if she was that child, she will wear this dress so that this woman’s smile will no longer have a trace of sadness. She wanted to make her happy.
“I think if your daughter knows that you love her so much, she will be very happy.”Dongfang Wan’er faintly smiled, pinched the fine needle between her fingers, and continue embroidering plum blossoms.
Although Bai Zhi didn’t know what happened 13 years ago, she knew that the woman in front of her loved her child very much. She kept thinking about her even if her child was dead.
Maybe the child is not dead?
What if the child didn’t die?
Bai Zhi suddenly asked Cui’er: “What day is it today?”
Cui’er replied: “Today is 13th, 10 more days and it will be the New Year. You can’t remember the date?”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “We escape for days, we don’t remember how many days we walk. We only think about how to survive.”Dongfang Wan suddenly asked her: “What happened to your family? Why do you want to escape?”
Bai Zhi said: “It’s a big disaster. We are from Qingyuan City. My sister-in-law and I have opened two shops in the town. Although we are not rich, our family lives a healthy life, but who knows, that one day… …”
After listening to what Bai Zhi said, Dongfang Wan was shocked that she couldn’t utter a word. Cui’er looked at the little doctor with praise.
“So, you and those villagers, killed all the Xiye Army, and then escaped from the forest?”
Bai Zhi nodded: “Yes, but we lost our way in the forest. It took us several days to get out of it. After coming out, we couldn’t tell which is north or south, nor which country is it. We had no choice but to walk separately. The fewer people in the group, the less it will eye-catching. Our family continues walking until we arrived in Qi City.”
“No wonder, when I saw you, I feel that you are not like an ordinary person.” Cui’er smiled.
Bai Zhi happily said: “At that time, I can see in your eyes, that you treat us like beggars. So of course, I’m not like an ordinary person, I’m simply a beggar.”
Bai Zhi’s words amused Dongfang Wan. She couldn’t help but smile, the gloominess in her eyes seemed to have been swept away.
Dongfang Mu stood outside the courtyard and saw this scene. He was very touched. How long has it been since he saw his daughter smile like this?
This Doctor Bai was a lucky star!
He happily entered the courtyard and said: “What are you talking about that you look so happy?”
Seeing her father coming, Dongfang Wan dropped the needlework in her hand, got up, and poured him a cup of tea: “Father, you sit down.”
Dongfang Mu sat down, while Dongfang Wan tried to repeat the story that Bai Zhi said. It’s just, she hasn’t started when an old man came in a hurry. It was their housekeeper.
The housekeeper said to Dongfang Mu: “Master, the messenger sent a letter from the capital, saying that it is an urgent matter.”
Dongfang Mu got up immediately and followed the housekeeper.
In the study room, two messengers were waiting. When they saw Dongfang Mu coming in, they hurriedly saluted.
Dongfang Mu waved his hand: “No need for this hypocrite ceremony, what about the letter? Give it to me!”
