Chapter 235 Sihe's Foster Mother's Love

The scene in Xuan Yue's consciousness slowly appeared before everyone.

Xuan Yue felt flustered. She tried to grab Zhu Yi's hand, but her fingertips felt icy cold.

She scanned the area with her divine sense and instantly felt utterly devastated, her whole body turning cold.

Her brother Yi is dead.

Standing next to her now is Yi Xuan, the Grand Elder of the Tianxian Sect.

The scene freezes on a small courtyard in Sujia Village.

Sihe transformed into the appearance of a ten-year-old.

The little girl was barefoot, with her sleeves and trouser legs rolled up, and a single braid on one side of her head swaying as she ran.

With a bright smile on her face, she rushed into the house.

"Mom, it just rained today, and lots of mushrooms have sprouted. We can take them to the market tomorrow to sell. This basket can fetch five coins."

Sihe estimated her savings: "Soon, I'll have enough money to buy my mother a new makeup box."

Li Yueniang held a towel and dried her hair, speaking gently, "Keep the money you earn for yourself. Your parents aren't so poor that they need to spend their daughter's money. Look at you, your hair is all wet."

Sihe didn't struggle; her big eyes narrowed into crescents as she enjoyed her mother wiping her hair.

My mother has always wiped her face since she was little, so she's used to it.

Father cooked and called Mother and daughter to eat.

After finishing her meal, Si He cleared the dishes and went back to the kitchen to wash them.

With a look of satisfaction, Su Ming took out a silver hairpin and a hair ornament from his pocket. "He'er is at the age where she loves to look beautiful. I'll secretly put them in her room as a surprise for her."

“Husband, this silver hairpin must be expensive.” Li Yueniang held it in her hand; it felt heavy.

Su Ming smiled and said, "It only takes half a year to chop firewood. We haven't given He'er anything good all these years. She can keep this and use it for travel expenses in the future."

Li Yueniang's eyes were moist.

She gripped the jade hairpin in her sleeve tightly; she had also bought a birthday gift for He'er.

The couple had the same idea.

Sihe washed the dishes, returned to her room, happily hugged her parents, and the three of them held hands and spun around several times.

The flickering candlelight illuminated the figures of a family of three in the small courtyard.

Li Yueniang felt guilty towards her child, so she personally put a silver hairpin on Sihe's hair. "He'er, you must keep the wedding dress that your mother embroidered for you carefully. Remember, don't marry Su Xiao."

Si He suddenly woke up from the fictional world.

She is no longer ten-year-old Si He, but twenty-year-old Si He, and she is searching for her adoptive mother's figure in Xuan Yue's consciousness.

Right in front of me is exactly what I'm looking at.

Only Li Yueniang stood in front of her.

"Mother, why..." In the instant she regained consciousness, everything that had just happened shattered like a dream.

Reality and the truth made her afraid to face them.

Li Yueniang's eyes gradually reddened, becoming somewhat blurry. "Child, you've suffered these past few years while we were gone."

Si He couldn't hold back her tears, which instantly fell.

She choked back tears as she spoke, "Mother...so you knew all along..."

“I know, but I can’t help it, He’er. I am a part of her, but…” At this point, Li Yueniang broke down in tears, gripping Si He’s hand tightly.

"Even though you're not my biological child, I love you more than my own life..."

"Although I am a part of her, when I awakened her consciousness, I tried to fight back, and even wanted to perish with her, burying this conspiracy in the dust with my body... But, but when I think of how young you are, how can I leave you behind?"

During that time, she struggled with her emotions and even attempted suicide.

She wanted to find a secluded place to die quietly, so she embroidered two skeletons into her wedding dress beforehand, hoping to make He'er give up on her and stop looking for her.

However, after she successfully committed suicide, she became a part of Xuan Yue.

It was as if she had personally returned herself to the person who had framed her daughter.

Li Yueniang witnessed Xuan Yue's actions but was powerless to stop her.

She fell into a state of paralysis, feeling her consciousness about to be completely wiped out, and from then on, Li Yueniang would cease to exist.

fine.

Thankfully, Sihe arrived.

Her daughter—

She waited so long for her.

For this reason, she relied on her obsession to hold on, and was repeatedly tormented by struggle and pain every day.

"mother--"

Si He could no longer hold back and hugged her tightly, as if afraid that this warmth would disappear.

From the moment she learned the truth, her heart had died. Now, receiving this answer, her lifeless heart began to beat again.

Love can make a puppet grow flesh and blood.

Love will expose all conspiracies to the light of day.

She loved her mother, and she loved her daughter just as much as her mother loved her.

Therefore, Sihe found the answer she had been seeking all her life.

The love she received was completely real.

How many days and nights they spent in turmoil and pain because of their love for themselves!

The awakening of their immortal consciousness made them determined to fight back!

They love themselves more than they realize.

Sihe hugged her mother tightly, her hands gripping even harder, her tears soaking a large patch of her mother's clothes.

She longed to take her away, back to reality, back to the days when they were reunited.

Li Yueniang let her tears fall, and gently pushed her away, "Don't cry, He'er. This hairpin in your hair is a birthday gift from your father. Perhaps one day you will need it..."

“Remember what I said,” Li Yueniang emphasized again.

That face, so similar to Xuan Yue's, yet more aged, was filled with tender love and a sense of relief.

A happy smile played on Li Yueniang's lips. "Being able to see you is the best outcome I've achieved after years of perseverance. I don't ask for anything more..."

She took a wedding dress from the bed.

"The two skeletons embroidered inside are meant to tell you that your father and I are no longer alive. This is not your fault. Thank you for coming into our lives and for giving us our own souls and love."

"Thank you, He'er."

She pulled back the silk thread embroidered with peonies, revealing two skeletons inside.

Li Yueniang cut off this piece of cloth and handed it to Si He.

"He'er, take the birthday gift your father prepared for you, and the dowry your mother gave you, and go out."

The tone of her words was incredibly firm, as if the white bones were reflected in Li Yueniang's eyes.

Li Yueniang's heart was filled with Si He.

Si He took it, grabbed her mother's hand covered in needle marks, and pleaded tearfully.

"No, I want to take you out of here. You can't stay here. I'll pay any price."

"Mother, He'er will take you out!"

She pulled Li Yueniang towards the door.

But.

But the warmth in her palm couldn't be retained; it slowly dissipated in her sense of touch.

Turn around.

I stared in disbelief.

Looking at Li Yueniang, who loved her most, her figure gradually blurred and disappeared from her feet into white dots.

No—no!!!

Si He was heartbroken and rushed over.

I got nothing in return.

Li Yueniang cried and laughed, her eyes filled with loving tenderness, as she slowly disappeared.

"He'er, from now on, you must live peacefully and happily. You are our most beloved daughter..."

"You are the best daughter in the world."

"Thank you for existing, thank you—"
