I was exiled and I took away my supplies and ran away with my whole family.

Chapter 212 Past friendship

In the general's mansion, everyone except Shen Zhiheng and Shen Yunqi were there, but they didn't know yet what the two youngest members of the family were doing.

They were used to the two children disappearing at every turn. Anyway, Mianmian was there and they could avoid danger in time, so there was no need to worry.

When the horse's neighing sounded at the door, Shen Yun stopped and slowly put on his clothes and went out, intending to see what was going on without being in a hurry.

As a result, she actually saw someone she thought she would never see again.

"Aunt Ran?!!!"

Her voice was not loud, and the few people at the door didn't hear her. She continued to turn around to get the baggage in the car, but Shen Yunting had already rushed out quickly, no longer as leisurely as before.

Running to the door, she suppressed the impulse in her heart and looked carefully at the four people in front of her. Her daughter took her apprentice out. In this case, she should not have admitted her mistake. The person in front of her was indeed Aunt Ran.

There was a lot of movement when she rushed out. Several people at the door noticed her, and Liang Yueran was also a little stunned, not daring to step forward to acknowledge her.

"Mother, please get out of the way first and let my aunt in, so that we can drive the carriage in too."

Shen Xingmian didn't know what was wrong with her mother, but it was so cold outside that she could only urge her.

This sentence brought back Shen Yunting's soul, and she quickly reached out to take the bundle from Liang Yueran's hand, and invited the people in with a bit of incoherence.

As for Liang Yueran himself, although he knew that this was the Shen family, he had not seen her for many years and their family was in this situation. She was actually a little uneasy, fearing that she... was not welcome.

Before she came, she had already prepared in her mind that she would not live and eat in the General's Mansion for free, nor would she be an "old lady". She would follow Wan Rong and help with any work.

When they left Beijing, they took their family resources with them. If it was not possible, they could rent a house near the General's Mansion.

She knew that the generals were all good people, but there would still be friction within the family, let alone two families living together.

Over time, discord would inevitably arise, and she had to be prepared for the possibility of being kicked out. As a result, Yun Ting, the kid, was so enthusiastic that she couldn't stand it.

When Shen Yunting could not remember much, his mother left. Although there were servants taking care of him at home, they did not feel like blood relatives.

At that time, the Sheng Mansion was next door to their house, and there was a little girl of the same age as her, Sheng Xiange, Yan Yue's mother-in-law.

So they naturally became friends and often went to play with each other.

It was in the Sheng family that she experienced what it felt like to have her mother caring for her.

Mrs. Sheng, the "Aunt Ran" in front of her, not only did not dislike her for not being educated by her mother and being like a "crazy girl" like others, she also prepared an extra gift for her daughter every time she prepared something for her. she.

Sometimes he would wait for her to take him back when she passed by, and other times he would have people take him directly to her home.

At that time, she was extremely envious of Sheng Xiange and felt that she was so lucky to have a wonderful mother. Once when the two of them were sleeping together and whispering, she couldn't help but express her envy.

Sheng Xiange patted her small chest and said righteously: "I think there are people outside who will recognize my godmother. How about I give you half of my mother's mother and you can become her daughter, and we can play together all the time!"

Although it was just a joke between children, neither of them had forgotten it when they woke up the next day. Sheng Xiange even took Sheng Xiange to her mother after washing up without even eating breakfast. .

But he was rejected.

She clearly remembered that Aunt Ran told her with a very solemn expression that in her heart, she had long been her other daughter, but the superiors were very afraid of the two powerful ministers getting close. Once discovered, it might harm the whole family.

Living in the capital, they actually don't have much freedom. Many times they are even stared at. If outsiders hear the name "godmother", it will become irrefutable evidence of a clique.

Neither of their families can afford to take such a risk, so don't mention it again in the future.

However, for many years after that, Aunt Ran did treat her as another daughter, allowing her to experience what it was like to have her mother's love.

But later, things really happened as Aunt Ran said. Especially after Xian Ge married Xiao Yangxu, the late emperor directly warned the two families not to "get too close".

It would be okay if they were just ordinary civil servants, but they, the Shen family, were also military generals, so they would be watched even more closely.

So in the next few years, the two families gradually stopped contacting each other, and the late emperor even transferred Uncle Sheng away from the capital for three years through promotion and promotion.

Not long after he came back, Uncle Sheng died unjustly, and Aunt Ran disappeared. No matter how much she inquired, she couldn't find any information.

Presumably, this was done to reassure the late emperor that Xian Ge and Yan Yue would not be implicated.

Unexpectedly, the person she thought she would never see again in her life was actually brought back by her daughter so easily. It seemed that she would still live at home.

This is really great!

She had never had the chance to repay Aunt Ran for taking care of her when she was a child. Now she could finally fulfill her filial piety for herself and for Xian Ge.

She was carrying two bundles in one hand and holding Aunt Ran's arm in the other. She didn't forget to greet Aunt Rong next to her, who was also the one who watched her grow up.

Shen Yunting wanted to cry a little. He had already accepted the "loss" that was a foregone conclusion, but he never thought that one day he would regain his loss. How could he not be excited?

Along the way, she lost her only friend, Xian Ge, and experienced her home being ransacked and exiled with nowhere to redress her grievances, her father almost died tragically due to poisoning, and her eldest brother and nephew both had their legs broken. Each of these things still makes her feel extremely painful when she thinks about them.

Seeing the two aunts in front of her, she felt that life didn't seem so bad anymore.

She resisted the urge to cry little by little, and let the person into the front hall. The Kang here was still warm. She quickly helped Aunt Ran sit on it, and then pulled the helpless Aunt Rong next to her, and pushed the person too. sat down.

The two of them were a little restrained at first, but after her operation, they both sat down obediently, feeling the heat of the fire bed, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, feeling it was magical.

Shen Yunting quickly poured water and made tea. It was not slightly bitter tea, which would make people energetic and unable to sleep, but dried fruits baked with rock sugar. It was sour and sweet, very delicious. .

She worked hard to cover up her inner turmoil, fearing that she would lose her composure.

By the time the two little ones came in from outside, she was able to calm down and communicate normally.
