The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

Chapter 208 This is the Lady’s Son

Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan stopped and looked breathlessly at the direction where the black shadow left, their eyes full of helplessness and unwillingness.

It took a long time for them to recover from the intense chase.

Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense hearts finally relaxed.

Recalling the life-and-death battle just now, they couldn't help but feel a little scared, and secretly felt lucky that they had escaped this time.

However, at the same time, the shadow's successful escape also made them deeply worried.

After all, if the black shadow leaked the matter after escaping, then Zhao Meir's identity would most likely be exposed and she would be in great danger.

And they themselves will no longer be able to hide, as the time left for them is getting less and less.

Thinking of this, Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan's expressions became solemn again...

However, at this moment, the top priority is to get back to Xiejia Village as soon as possible!

Zhao Haoxuan said sincerely: "Royal sister, I'm afraid you can't go back to the capital now, so why don't you come back to Xie Village with us!"

Zhao Meir thought about it for a while, weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and finally agreed.

There is really no other way at the moment. If there were any other choice, she would never implicate them so easily.

After picking up Chen Liangxian and Manager Chen from Ping'an Town, the group traveled non-stop all the way. When they finally arrived at Xiejia Village, the night was already as dark as ink, and everyone in the house was fast asleep.

But even so, General Xiong Yun was still awakened by them. Seeing them appear before him, his eyes instantly turned red.

He said excitedly, "Miss Wang, you're finally back! My master has been so anxious all day long that he comes down the mountain every now and then to look for you, just to see when you'll return!"

Wang Xinyao's face was filled with shame, and she hurriedly said, "General Xiong, I'm so sorry for causing you so much worry! I wonder if everything is going well at home lately?"

Xiong Yun nodded and said, "Since Miss Wang went to the capital, everything has been fine at home. The papermaking workshop and mushroom base are operating normally. The medical team led by Miss Wang has also grown in number, and many of them are able to practice medicine independently!"

Wang Xinyao smiled and nodded, her heart filled with relief. She gently opened her red lips and introduced everyone present to General Xiong one by one: "General Xiong, this is Miss Zhao Meir, my husband's sister!"

When Xiong Yun heard this, an expression of extreme shock instantly appeared on his face!

You know, he knew that Miss Wang's husband was none other than the Crown Prince, whom the current emperor valued most!

In this case, doesn’t it mean that the girl standing here is actually an extremely noble princess?

However, despite being shocked, Xiong Yun did not say a word. Instead, he quickly reacted and bowed respectfully to Zhao Meir: "I am General Xiong Yun, and I pay my respects to Miss Meir!"

Zhao Meier smiled slightly upon seeing this, raised her jade hand gently, nodded slightly and said, "General Xiong, there's no need to be so polite. Please stand up quickly!"

At this time, Wang Xinyao continued to introduce, "General Xiong, this is Xiao Xizi, he is my husband's attendant! And this is Mr. Chen and Manager Chen from Qingnian Tower..."

Just as Wang Xinyao was introducing herself enthusiastically, suddenly, a burst of rapid shouts came from the inner room.

All I heard was a loud cry: "Madam, madam, you are finally back, how great!"

Along with the shouts, the head nanny Wu Wenxiu hurried out from the inner room.

Perhaps it was because the lights in the hall were bright, or perhaps it was because the voices of people outside were a little noisy, or perhaps it was because she was a light sleeper. In short, no one knew what had woken her up.

At this moment, Wu Wenxiu's face was filled with joy, but if you looked closely, you could see that her eyes, which should have been clear and bright, were actually a little moist.

Before Wang Xinyao could respond, Shopkeeper Chen, who was standing nearby, suddenly became extremely excited.

He widened his eyes and stared at the woman in front of him, "Xiu Xiu, is it really you?"

"I... I finally found you! Where have you been all these years? I've searched almost every corner, but I still couldn't find any trace of you!" Shopkeeper Chen's voice trembled with excitement.

Hearing this, Wu Wenxiu couldn't help but widen her already large eyes, her face full of surprise and confusion.

She stared straight at the strange yet familiar man in front of her and asked hesitantly, "Who... who are you? Why do you know me?"

Seeing Wu Wenxiu's confused look, Manager Chen became more anxious.

He hurriedly took a big step forward and held Wu Wenxiu's arm tightly with both hands, as if he was afraid that if he let go, she would disappear from his sight again.

He spoke very quickly: "Xiu Xiu, I'm Ah Fu! Back then, I was the guard of the Gu family, and you were Miss Gu's most caring maid!"

Hearing this, Wu Wenxiu seemed to remember something, and a barely perceptible light flashed in his eyes!

Shopkeeper Chen continued, "But one day, you suddenly disappeared without a trace. Since then, my lady and I have never given up searching for you."

"It's a pity that things didn't go as planned. Miss Gu later passed away due to illness. But even so, after so many years, I still haven't stopped looking for you." When he said this, Shopkeeper Chen's eyes were red.

Wang Xinyao and everyone else present looked at each other in bewilderment. Obviously, no one had expected that such a little-known story from the past would suddenly emerge at this moment.

It's no wonder that Shopkeeper Chen, in his middle age, is still single. And Wu Wenxiu, in her thirties, is still unengaged.

Zhou Shen and Cui Yingying also have such a mutual affection for each other, and so do Zhen Zhanggui and Wu Wenxiu.

It seems that the love between men and women in ancient times was free from the temptations of material desires. People's minds were simple and their emotions were sincere. Once they fell in love, it was a commitment for life.

Most of them will not change their minds because of money or power, nor will they be disturbed by the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

This kind of pure and persistent love is truly admirable.

In contrast, love in modern society is often mixed with too many realistic factors, appearing somewhat impetuous and utilitarian.

Perhaps it is because of this that those touching love stories have been passed down from ancient times to the present day.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Chen seemed to have remembered something important and quickly turned around and pulled Chen Liangxian behind him.

He pointed at Chen Liangxian and said to Wu Wenxiu, "Xiuxiu, look! This is the young lady's son!"
