Chapter 278: Harem Surrogacy Concubine (End)
The moment the words fell, the little guy was struck by lightning.
After being stunned for a while, he turned his head to look at his grandparents behind him. Seeing them nodding at the same time, the little guy opened his round eyes wide in horror.
This, he must be dreaming, the Queen is his biological mother?! This is even more unreliable than his unreliable father.
Seeing that the little guy still seemed a little unconvinced, Wen Nuan and the people from the old Chu family joined in. Oh, the story has to start from a peach forest.
Of course, all the plots that are not suitable for children are omitted.
Anyway, it is absolutely true, heaven and earth can bear witness to it, we are a family connected by blood.
After a moment, the little guy finally digested all the information, and then looked at Wen Nuan with shining eyes.
"mother……"
"Eh……"
At this moment, Wen Nuan finally felt fulfilled, as she recognized her child.
Afterwards, Wen Nuan took out the clothes she had sewn by herself as if she were presenting a treasure. She could only slowly make up for the debt she had incurred over the years.
But when the four children saw the clothes, their expressions suddenly became strange.
The triplets: They were wondering why their mother did needlework so often, as they had clearly seen her doing it in all these years. It turned out that it was the fourth child who did it.
Chu Nian: So this is the reason for those ugly clothes. He didn’t dare to wear them to school, but when he was at home, his father still forced him to wear them.
"Nian'er, look, this is what mom made for you. Do you like it?"
It was also the first time for Wen Nuan to experience the saying "a loving mother sews clothes for her son". At the moment, she was full of motherly love and did not notice anything wrong at all.
Chu Nian looked at her clothes, then looked at her new mother, hesitated for a while, and finally compromised timidly under the threatening look of her father.
"Mom, I like it very much. Thank you for your hard work."
The three brothers on the side...
If you can't laugh, then don't laugh. It's uglier than crying. Considering that Xiao Si can't accompany his mother, they won't fight with him for the clothes.
"Xiao Si, come here, the brothers have something to tell you."
Now that they are all brothers, the older brothers won’t be polite anymore and pulled Chu Nian, who was still a little uncomfortable, out of the house.
As for how the brothers communicate, Wen Nuan does not participate. Boys, after all, bond better through fighting and playing.
Besides, she believed that the boss knew what to do.
The result was indeed so. Since they met, Wen Nuan would bring the children out from time to time, and the atmosphere between the brothers was visibly harmonious.
Of course, everything remained the same in the palace. The children were well looked after by the eldest son, who knew not to let others notice anything.
Wen Nuan didn't need to worry about anything, the boss did everything for her.
This child was really born at the right time.
As the children grew up, Wen Nuan was still fine, but Wei Yuzong was clearly showing signs of aging.
Years of indulgence had already drained his energy, and even those rare medicinal herbs could not stop the vitality from gradually disappearing from Wei Yuzong's body.
He seemed to have realized this himself, and when his children were sixteen years old, he took the initiative to abdicate and handed over the throne to the eldest son.
After these years of careful training, Wei Yuzong has absolute confidence in his son. Although he doesn't want to admit it, his son is indeed far superior to him.
If he voluntarily abdicates, there's no guarantee that he can live a few more years. So... he can spend more time with his Jiaojiao.
He had indeed treated Jiaojiao coldly over the years, but it was too late to regret now.
In response, Wen Nuan expressed that she had no grudge against you. She was very happy just because you were so romantic.
In the end, Wei Yuzong’s wish to live a few more years was not realized, and he only lived one more year after abdicating.
This year was not only warm, but the children also showed their filial piety.
In the last moment before closing his eyes, Wei Yuzong was reluctant to let go of Wen Nuan's hand, even though he was too weak to speak. But from the shape of his mouth, Wen Nuan knew that he was calling "Nuan'er..."
Looking at the filial sons and grandchildren in the hall below, Wen Nuan couldn't help but sigh. People still have to control their desires. Those who can't even control their desires are beasts.
Wei Yuzong was already more than ten years older than her, and he ate meat without restraint all year round. He had to get up early to attend court after a tiring night of work. It was easy for him to break down his body.
Time is also destiny.
Without the emperor in the palace, the empress dowager Wen Nuan is the only one in power, and no one dares to cause trouble to her anyway.
As for the three remaining princes, Wen Nuan didn't need to do anything. Wei Yuzong had already made them kings and exiled them from the palace to set up their own residences, which cleared all obstacles for the boss.
Wen Nuan watched her children and younger brother get married one after another and complete the major events in life before she completely gave up and ignored everything.
She had fulfilled her mission and it was time for her to enjoy her life.
From then on, everyone in the former dynasty and the harem knew that the empress dowager spent half a year every year recuperating in a villa outside the palace.
As for what he was resting for, only the children and the old prince and his wife knew about it.
Having wasted the first half of their lives, Wen Nuan and Chu Yunnan especially cherish the hard-earned second half of their lives.
The village is beautiful and has everything. Wen Nuan spends every day with Chu Yunnan and they don't even have to go out.
Just like an ordinary old couple, they walked side by side in the sunset and said good morning to each other when they woke up in the morning.
When love grows stronger, Wen Nuan will occasionally ask: "Can you blame her..." or "Have you ever regretted..."
Yes, that fresh and handsome young man back then waited for her for half his life.
But her young man always responded to her with: "No regrets..."
"It's as sweet as sugar..."
Time seemed to freeze, and at that moment, I felt so warm that I burst into tears.
She also has no regrets...
……
Chu Yunnan passed away a few days after his 60th birthday. Wen Nuan and the children went to see him for the last time.
Chu Nian already had three sons by that time, and under the secret care of the eldest son, Prince Rong's Mansion had changed beyond recognition.
Chu Yunan left with a smile on his face. The last glance before he closed his eyes was filled with his warmth...
Wen Nuan was always by his side silently. Although they didn't say much, they both knew each other's feelings.
As for the funeral arrangements, Wen Nuan was of course not in a position to be involved, so she left everything to Chu Nian.
The days seemed to become quiet all of a sudden, and Wen Nuan missed her only brother more and more.
As the old saying goes, if an older person suddenly becomes nostalgic at some point...
Even if it was warmth, with this flesh and blood body, it could not escape its fate.
During the last period of time, Wen Nuan stayed at the Duke's Mansion for a few days. When she returned to the palace, it seemed as if all her worries were gone and she lost all her energy.
No matter how anxious the children were, they could not restore the warmth of the gradually deteriorating body.
After thinking about it, Wen Nuan felt that she had no regrets.
In this peaceful and prosperous era, Wen Nuan had already left behind two prescriptions: one for treating smallpox, and another for treating plague.
As for the rest, she believed in her son.
She had nothing to worry about the Jiang family. With the support of the eldest brother, the Jiang family had already become the number one royal merchant family in Daqian. The family was prosperous and had strict family rules.
Finally, he glanced at his four children and his brother, who had already burst into tears. He felt as warm as the smile he had seen in the peach forest that year...
……
What Wen Nuan didn't know was that, although she never said it out loud, after her death, her children openly buried her in the imperial mausoleum, but secretly buried her together with Chu Yunnan.
My father has so many concubines by his side, they can't just watch him lie alone in the ground.
We can't sleep together in life, but we can be buried together in death...
