Lord Chu's Wife is Wild
Chapter 494: What Was Wrong With Calling Her Mother?
Chapter 494: What Was Wrong With Calling Her Mother?
Lu Sheng stared at Chu Sihan’s sleeping face for a while before suddenly feeling sleepy.
She lay on his chest with her eyes closed. She unknowingly fell asleep.
Not long after Lu Sheng fell asleep, she had a dream.
In her dream, she was strangled by a black-robed man. In order to save her, Chu Sihan’s heart was dug out by the black-robed man.
She watched helplessly as he lost his breath and collapsed in a pool of blood.
Lu Sheng wanted to shout, but her throat seemed to be stuck and she could not make any sound.
“Sheng Sheng, get up quickly!”
Chu Sihan had just opened his eyes when he was shocked by Lu Sheng’s pale face.
There were a few drops of sweat on her forehead, and she looked like she was in pain.
He reached out to touch her forehead and realized that her temperature was normal. He could only try to wake her up.
Lu Sheng shuddered and sat up. Then, she panted heavily.
“Is it another nightmare?”
A low and hoarse voice floated into her ear. She suddenly looked up and a familiar face entered her sight.
The early sun outside the house shone through the window lattices and shone on Chu Sihan’s face, causing his skin to appear exceptionally fair.
Lu Sheng caressed his face with trembling hands. She heaved a sigh of relief when she felt a real touch.
Thankfully! Thankfully, it was just a dream!
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing her holding his face and looking at him in a daze without saying anything, Chu Sihan was a little worried.
Lu Sheng regained her senses and smiled at him, her heart still palpitating.
“I’m fine. I just had a dream.”
She smiled faintly and sat up to change her clothes.
Chu Sihan stared at her back and smiled.
After the two of them changed, a servant brought over some water for washing up.
After washing up, the duo went to the front courtyard to serve tea.
A lot of people stood in the room. There were Chu Hongqing, Mdm Jiang, Chu Silin, and the Chu Mansion’s servants.
The Matriarch sat in the high seat, while Chu Hongzhong and Mdm Chu sat by her sides.
“They’re here!”
Matriarch Chu looked at the two people who entered and smiled.
“Greetings, Grandmother, Father, Mother, Second Uncle, and Second Aunt.”
Chu Sihan bowed faintly.
Lu Sheng glanced at Mdm Chu and realized that she was looking at her too.
She smiled faintly and imitated Chu Sihan’s greeting, greeting them one by one.
“Did you sleep well last night?”
Matriarch Chu asked jokingly.
No matter how thick-skinned Lu Sheng was, she could not help but blush.
Upon hearing Matriarch Chu’s laughter, everyone standing at the side chuckled secretly.
Chu Sihan looked at her sideways. His thin lips curved upwards and his eyes were gentle.
When Mdm Chu saw this, she felt upset.
Her child had always been indifferent to her, but was so gentle to an outsider. How could she not be jealous?
“Lord, Young Madam, please serve tea!”
Nanny Kong got two servants to bring tea over and stood beside them.
The duo served tea to them.
The few of them gave red packets. The amounts Chu Hongzhong and Matriarch Chu gave were the most substantial.
After Lu Sheng kept the red packet, Chu Sihan pulled her aside and sat down.
“Today is Han Er’s first day of marriage. I also have a happy matter to share with everyone.”
“Brother, what’s the good news?”
Chu Hongzhong had just finished speaking when Chu Hongqing asked with a smile.
Other than Chu Sihan and Matriarch Chu, everyone, including Mdm Chu, looked suspiciously at Chu Hongzhong.
Chu Hongzhong looked very happy. He shouted outside, “Chu Yuan, bring him in.”
Chu Yuan was Chu Hongzhong’s follower. After hearing Chu Hongzhong’s voice, he suddenly brought someone in.
It was a seventeen-year-old youth. His skin was sickly white, and his facial features were similar to Chu Hongzhong’s. However, his eyebrows and eyes resembled Mdm Chu’s.
He looked at the people in the room blankly. When he saw Chu Sihan, his eyes lit up.
“Brother!”
He walked quickly towards Chu Sihan and shouted happily.
Chu Sihan stood up and nodded with a smile. He patted his shoulder lightly and said, “Welcome home!”
It was unknown when Matriarch Chu stood up from her high seat. Her eyes were red and her lips trembled as she looked at the youth.
Mdm Chu looked confused.
She looked at the youth in front of her and felt that he was familiar, but she did not know where she had seen him before.
Other than Mdm Chu, Chu Hongqing’s family of three and the servants in the room looked puzzled.
Of course, they did not expect the youth in front of them to be Chu Siyun, who had died back then.
“Brother, this young master is...” Chu Hongqing looked suspiciously at Chu Hongzhong and asked the question in his heart.
Just as he asked, Matriarch Chu walked down. She held the youth’s shoulders with both hands and said with a trembling voice, “Good child, quickly let Grandmother take a good look!”
“Grandmother?”
Mdm Chu’s expression changed drastically. She glared at Chu Hongzhong, who was secretly wiping his tears, and questioned angrily, “Chu Hongzhong, you... you actually dared to have a child with another woman behind my back!”
The youth in front of her was already seventeen or eighteen years old. This was enough to prove that Chu Hongzhong had betrayed her many years ago.
“Nonsense!”
Chu Hongzhong scolded her and looked at Chu Siyun. He was frowning at Mdm Chu.
“Go ahead!”
Chu Sihan smiled faintly and said, “You haven’t seen your parents for more than ten years, right? Hurry up and greet them.”
“Where did this bastard come from to casually acknowledge me as his mother?”
Mdm Chu snorted coldly and looked at Chu Sihan. “Han Er, not only did your father hide it from me, but you also hid it from me?”
Chu Sihan frowned and turned to Chu Siyun. “Siyun, since Mother doesn’t want to acknowledge you, forget it.”
The name “Si Yun” made the entire room fall silent.
Mdm Chu was dumbfounded. Chu Hongqing and the rest were also stunned. They suspected that they were hearing things.
Otherwise, why would Chu Sihan suddenly call out a dead person’s name?
“Han Er, what did you call him? Si... Siyun?”
Mdm Chu looked at Chu Sihan in shock.
How was that possible? Her Yun Er had died thirteen years ago.
How could he appear here thirteen years later?
“Yes, it’s Siyun.”
Chu Hongzhong said, “Back then, Yun Er did not die. Instead, I begged an expert to bring him to another village to treat his illness. Not long ago, Yun Er just woke up.”
The current Chu Siyun had a very simple personality. He had no problems in various aspects, but he was not good at interacting with others.
When he was in the Netherworld, he existed as a soul. The King of Hades also let him learn a lot. However, when he was in the Netherworld, he was locked in a room. Hence, he did not know that that was the Netherworld at all.
During this period, Chu Sihan had also gone to see him. Hence, among all these people, Chu Sihan was the person he was most familiar with.
“He... is really my Yun Er?”
Mdm Chu walked over in a daze. She reached out to pull Chu Siyun’s hand, but he seemed to have been shocked and hid behind Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng.
Mdm Chu’s gaze and words just now had really scared him.
Hence, when he saw that Mdm Chu wanted to touch him, besides disgust, he was also afraid.
Chu Sihan turned his head and consoled him. Then, he looked at Matriarch Chu and Chu Hongzhong and said, “Grandmother, Father, Siyun has just returned. Let him rest for two days first. After finding a day, I’ll introduce everyone to him.”
“Okay!”
Matriarch Chu hurriedly nodded.
Chu Hongzhong glanced at the pale-faced Mdm Chu and instructed Chu Yuan, “Chu Yuan, bring Third Young Master down to rest first.”
“Yes!”
After Chu Yuan received his orders, he brought Chu Siyun away.
“Brother, is he... really Yun Er?”
After some time, Chu Hongqing regained his senses.
Chu Hongzhong sighed softly and nodded.
“That’s great!” Chu Hongqing said sincerely with reddened eyes.
He liked his two nephews very much, just like he liked his son.
Hence, when he heard that Chu Siyun was still alive, he naturally felt blessed.
“Since there’s nothing else, I’ll take Sheng Sheng away first.”
Chu Sihan ignored the stunned Mdm Chu and spoke to Matriarch Chu and the rest.
Matriarch Chu nodded. “Go ahead!”
Before Chu Sihan left, he scanned Chu Silin and Mdm Jiang and realized that their expressions were a bit stiff.
They had been longing for the Chu Mansion’s assets.
They thought that after Chu Sihan died, it would be Chu Silin’s turn to inherit. They did not expect Chu Siyun to still be alive.
Hence, even if they could really kill Chu Sihan back then, they would still not be in charge of the Chu Mansion.
After knowing that Chu Siyun was still alive, Mdm Jiang’s restless thoughts disappeared.
Chu Sihan retracted his gaze lightly and led Lu Sheng out of the room.
“Didn’t you say that it would take a long time for Brother to wake up? Why did he wake up so quickly?”
After leaving the room, Lu Sheng asked curiously.
She had previously mentioned Chu Siyun’s matter to Chu Sihan, but it was said that he would not wake up until a few years later.
She did not expect Chu Siyun to wake up so soon.
“Nothing is absolute. Father and I didn’t expect him to wake up so quickly. It’s a miracle.”
Chu Sihan pursed his lips and smiled. He looked down at her and said, “Let’s go, I’ll bring you to a place.”
“Where are we going?”
“You’ll know when we get there.”
Chu Sihan pulled her back to the courtyard and returned to his study room.
“Why are we in the study room?”
She had been to this study room before last year with He Lai.
Chu Sihan did not answer her and closed the study room door.
He waved his hand and a black hole appeared in front of him.
“Although we got married in the human world, we still have to serve tea to the real in-laws.”
Before she could react, he had already led her into the black hole.
Lu Sheng initially thought that he was going to bring her to the Netherworld. She did not expect to see a mountain villa covered in snow when she came out.
“This is...?”
It was only August. It had not snowed even in the capital, right?
Lu Sheng frowned slightly. She had never seen this place before.
Chu Sihan led her in and explained in a low voice, “Snowfall Villa.”
“Oh!” Lu Sheng was enlightened. “So, this is where the Lord was born?”
“Yes!”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly.
“Young Master has returned with Young Madam!”
Someone in the villa saw the two of them and immediately shouted.
After a while, a group of people came over.
Everyone smiled happily and greeted them.
An old man said to Chu Sihan, “The Villa Master and Mdm are waiting for Young Master and Young Madam in the room. Hurry up and go in.”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly and pulled the confused Lu Sheng forward.
“You... come back often?”
After a while, Lu Sheng regained her senses and blinked.
“I come back occasionally.”
“Are the people in this villa... real people?”
She seemed to have felt a ghostly aura, but it was very faint.
Chu Sihan explained in a low voice, “There are both humans and ghosts. The old man just now was from the Netherworld.”
“No wonder!”
Lu Sheng nodded.
The villa was very big and was almost on par with the Chu Mansion.
After walking for some time, they finally reached the place where the King of Hades and Lu Ying were staying.
When the two of them entered, they realized that besides the King of Hades and Lu Ying, there was also Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian.
“Master!”
Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up. She broke free from Chu Sihan’s grip and jogged forward with a smile.
She first greeted the other three before smiling at Lu Zhou and asking, “Master, why are you here?”
“I’m here as a guest.”
Lu Zhou tidied his sitting posture and said with a smile, “Hurry up and serve tea to your Uncle King of Hades and Aunt.”
“Yes!”
Lu Sheng smiled and bowed.
On the other hand, Chu Sihan had already poured two cups of tea. He passed one to her and kept the other for himself.
“Father, please have some tea!”
Chu Sihan served tea to the King of Hades first.
Lu Sheng looked at him sideways, then at Lu Zhou, as if asking him how to address the King of Hades.
“Call him Uncle-Master,” Lu Zhou reminded with a smile.
Lu Sheng nodded. “Uncle-Master, please have some tea!”
The King of Hades glared at Lu Zhou unhappily. Then, he received it with a smile.
“Mother, please have some tea!”
Chu Sihan poured two more cups and passed one to Lu Sheng. He kept the other for himself.
“Aunt-Master, please have some tea!”
“Cough—Cough—”
Lu Sheng shouted, and Lu Zhou, who was leisurely tasting his tea, suddenly spat it out. He even choked and coughed a few times.
Lu Sheng looked over suspiciously and thought, “Could I have shouted wrongly?”
Uncle-Master and Aunt-Master should be right!
“Good child!”
Lu Ying did not feel that anything was amiss. She smiled and took a sip of the tea before giving Lu Sheng a big red packet.
“Thank you, Aunt-Master!”
“Just call her Aunt!”
Lu Zhou hurriedly reminded her.
She kept addressing him as Aunt-Master, as if Lu Ying was his wife.
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Uncle-Master and Aunt-Master. Is there anything wrong?”
“Yes, but if I have a wife in the future, how should you address her?” Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and asked.
“Mother.”
Lu Sheng blurted out without thinking.
Lu Zhou was stunned. Chu Sihan and the rest looked at Lu Sheng in surprise.
“Why... Why?” Lu Zhou’s heart raced, and he thought Lu Sheng had seen something.
Unexpectedly, she explained, “Many people said that I look like you, and even our personalities are similar. I thought that you must have been my father in my previous life. Since you’re my father, what’s wrong with calling your wife Mother?”
