The last time the regulars met Qin Huakui was on the day Qin Huakui got married. It has been almost three years now.
For a regular customer, not seeing him for one day is like three autumns. If he doesn't see you for three years, he will be haunted by his dream and not think about food and drink all day long.
He knew that Qin Huakui had him in her heart, and he also knew that her marriage to the Song family's son was just a temporary measure of last resort.
He stayed in Mianxiang Tower for a long time, just wanting to wait for her to come back to him. But he didn't expect that she would leave Yu County directly.
The incident of Qin Huakui's poisoning of Mr. Song, which caused a stir in the whole city, is still vivid in his mind, and the people's comments are endless.
But he believed that Qin Huakui would never do that kind of thing, just because she disdained him, and he understood her.
But Youyou couldn't stop everyone. No matter how much he defended her, he couldn't change her image in everyone's mind.
Later, he decided to find her. He searched all the streets of Yu County countless times, but in the end he still did not find her whereabouts. Just when he was about to feel discouraged, he accidentally learned that she lived in this place.
Whether it was or not, he had to come and take a look.
Today I finally got to meet the person I have longed for, a dignified man, but my tears couldn't stop falling like rain.
She had lost weight and looked much paler. He didn't know whether it was the sequelae of the exhaustion sea or the result of traveling around the world all these years. However, it made him feel bad to see her.
Before Qin Huakui could say anything more, he pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, tears dripping down his cheeks and onto her clothes.
"Why didn't you come to me?" The regular customer choked up his voice, as if there was something stuck in his throat when he spoke, and his tone seemed to be accusing.
Qin Huakui also knew what he meant, so she pushed him away gently and replied quietly: "I don't want to inconvenience you."
"Between you and me, how can we talk about getting involved?" Regular customers didn't like to hear her say that. In his heart, he prefers the proud and elegant Qin Huaniang. It is a touch of white moonlight in his heart, a trace imprinted in his heart, and a beauty engraved in his mind. He was willing to give everything for her, just like he was willing to stay in Mianxiang Tower for three years for her. He just wanted to be with her and look at her day and night.
"Mother, who is he?"
Qin Huakui was accompanied by a three-year-old little girl. The little girl looked well-behaved and had a pair of big, watery eyes. She was very smart, as if she could talk, and her eyes were full of aura. Her mouth is not big, and she looks most beautiful when she purses her lips. She is as cute as a rag doll, and her facial features are exquisite, somewhat similar to Qin Huakui.
Her mother had tied her hair into two towering hairpins and tied it with a red rope. She was wearing a bright red jacket. It was a bit old and had some wrinkles on it, but it was clean after washing.
The little girl's height just reached the thighs of regular customers. When talking to him, she raised her little head with a naive and cute expression, which was actually cute.
"Your daughter?" The regular customer was stunned for a moment, then knelt down and looked at the little girl: "Little girl, what's your name?"
"Qin Yao." The little guy replied in a sweet voice, not afraid of life at all.
The regulars frowned, revealing their gloom.
Qin Huakui's health was deteriorating day by day, and the regulars watched helplessly as her complexion became worse and worse, as pale as a dead person.
The regular customer felt extremely distressed and supported her, with an expression of indescribable helplessness: "Your health is really bad!"
"It's all the sequelae left behind when you left the Qi Sea. If you want to leave Mianxiang Tower, you have to pay some price." Qin Huakui replied with a sigh.
"Do you regret it?" the regular customer stared at her.
If she had not insisted on leaving Mianxiang Tower, she would not be like this now. Under the protection of the nanny of Mianxiang Tower, she could at least live the rest of her life in peace. But after he asked this answer, the next moment, he also guessed the future. What kind of answer would Qin Huakui's personality give?
"No regrets!" Qin Huakui shook her head and looked up at the sky. The azure sky and snow-like white clouds leaked out from the gaps between the peach trees. Her face was slightly pulled, revealing an indescribable smile.
Qin Huakui said that this was exactly the day she was pursuing, unfettered, free and free from anyone's control or instructions. She doesn't need to be someone else's tool, she just needs to be herself.
"So you abandoned me in the first place?" a regular customer asked abruptly.
Qin Huakui was a little surprised, and then replied in an apologetic tone: "I just felt that I was most sorry for you at the beginning."
The regular customer didn't say anything. He also knew that everyone would face different choices at different times. They should not be angry and regretful because of those things, because that would be bullying their former selves.
The regular visitor no longer struggled with the past. He just asked Qin Huakui, what should Qin Yao do if she passes away in the future?
Qin Huakui only said that after his death, Qin Yao was alone and lonely.
I have no one else in this world that I love but Qin Yao who I can't let go of.
She wanted to ask regular customers to help her bring Qin Yao back to Mianxiang Tower, and asked her grandma to raise Qin Yao and repay her in the next life. However, she did not want little Qin Yao to be bound by Mianxiang Tower. Mammy must not train her to be the killer of Mianxiang Tower.
"You really want to do this?" The regular customer was surprised by Qin Huakui's idea. She finally ran out, but then sent her own daughter in? What's the point of this?
"I have no choice." Qin Huakui replied helplessly, looking at Xiao Qin Yao with indescribable love in her eyes. Of course she knew where Mianxiang Tower was and what would happen to those who entered it. But there is nothing that can be done about it. I just hope that grandma can agree to her request and meet her small condition.
The regulars also saw Qin Huakui's determination. He took a deep breath, and his thoughts struggled in his mind for a moment, and finally settled with a sigh.
In March of the following year, Qin Huakui on the bed was already very angry. Before she closed her eyes, she looked at the spring scenery in the garden. She looked at Qin Yao with tears in her eyes. She stretched out her hands tremblingly and held her red and chapped face. He murmured to the little girl: "Mom makes three wishes for you: firstly, I wish that everything will come true and you get what you wish for; secondly, I wish that your life will be sweet and you will smile brightly; thirdly, I wish that you will be smart and energetic. Xiaoyao, my mother is going to leave for a while. When you are away, you must be obedient.
After all, Qin Huakui couldn't survive that night. A regular visitor built a tomb for her in the peach blossom forest and buried his beloved woman with his own hands.
The only burial object was a bronze mirror that Qin Huakui loved most during his lifetime. The name was Qingtian Hongchen Mirror, which seemed to have some spirituality. There was also a last letter written by Qin Huakui himself and buried in her tomb with her.
The regular customer leaned down, held Xiao Qin Yao next to him, and said with a straight face: "Xiao Qin Yao, do you still want to see your mother?"
The little girl who was only four years old nodded in understanding.
Then, the regular guest brought young Xiao Qin Yao back to Mianxiang Tower, but did not relay Qin Huakui's words to his mother.
Grandma just glanced at Xiao Qin Yao and let her in. He also told her the rules of Mianxiang Tower.
Xiao Qin Yao just blinked blankly after hearing these incomprehensible words.
The regular customer promised Qin Huakui to take good care of Qin Yao, so he took the initiative to stay in Mianxiang Tower. From then on, Mianxiang Tower had a strange and mysterious coachman...
