Chapter 307 (Extra) Destiny in Past and Present Life
There was a family named Xue in the east of Ling'an City, not far from the house of Mr. Liu. They started out as a cloth business and had several shops in Ling'an City.
Although they were not rich, they had no worries about food and clothing.
The name of Mr. Xue was Xue Shi. He married five concubines and had eleven daughters in total.
He thought he was destined to be childless, but when he was forty years old, the principal wife, who was nearly forty years old, became pregnant again. The doctor said that Mrs. Xue's figure should still be a girl, but the baby was a fat boy.
Xue Shi was so happy that he didn't know what to do. He held a full-month banquet in his house, donated incense to the temple, and distributed porridge.
The Xue mansion was decorated with lights and full of guests.
Xue Shi went back and forth to greet the guests, smiling from ear to ear.
The servant came again to report that the Ling'an County Magistrate had brought a distinguished guest, and he hurriedly took the servants out to greet him.
The county magistrate came with a couple, both of whom were extraordinary. Xue Shi had never seen such good-looking people.
Looking at the county magistrate's attitude towards the two, he knew that they were not ordinary people.
Shen Yu and Xie Tingzhou had stayed in Ling'an for more than a month.
After Ah Xi left that day, Shen Yu cried loudly, and then asked people to check which women in Ling'an were pregnant or had just given birth recently.
After checking, there was really a family whose time could match the number, and it was the Xue Mansion.
Xue Shi led the distinguished guests into the house, and saw a maid running in hurriedly.
"Master, it's bad, the young master has been crying since just now, and no matter how he is coaxed, he will not be able to cry. He is crying so hard that he is almost... dying."
Xue Shi heard it and hurried in without caring about anything else.
He only heard the baby crying loudly, and he was already sobbing and hiccuping.
A group of people surrounded the young master of the Xue family in a panic, and tried every method, but they couldn't coax him.
Shen Yu stood in front of the corridor, took a deep breath, and then stepped forward.
"Can I hug him?"
Her eyes were red as soon as she said that.
Before Xue Shi could answer, he saw the child tilt his head and stretched out his hand in the direction of the distinguished guest.
Shen Yu carefully took the baby.
He was so soft and fragile when he held her. His black eyes looked at her and he stopped crying immediately, still sobbing.
Everyone was overjoyed and praised him.
"This is really fate."
"This child has been smart since he was young. He knows that the distinguished guest is coming. This is good news."
Shen Yu held the child and finally couldn't stop the tears from falling.
The baby stretched out his hand and wanted to touch her face but couldn't reach it. He flattened his mouth and started crying again.
She leaned over and put her face close to him, letting his soft little hand touch her.
"Oh." The maid smiled and said, "You know you like beautiful sisters at such a young age."
Shen Yu choked up. This is Anan.
He is her best friend and playmate. Even if he has changed into a different person, they are still close to each other.
Xie Tingzhou stepped forward and looked at the baby in Shen Yu's arms. He was really as stupid as Pei Chunli. He couldn't help but curl his lips with a sly smile.
Didn't you want to call him dad? Did you think you could escape by changing your family?
How could you still be so naive after two lives?
"Master Xue." Xie Tingzhou said.
Master Xue hurriedly bowed, "I dare not, my surname is Xue Dan Ming Shi, please tell me if you have anything to do."
Xie Tingzhou glanced at the baby in Shen Yu's arms and said, "I think this child is blessed, and I am willing to take him as my adopted son. Do you have any objections?"
Not to mention Xue Shi, even the county magistrate was shocked and hurriedly pulled Xue Shi's sleeve.
"Quick, quick, hurry up, thank you." The county magistrate said quickly, fortunately no one noticed.
I wondered how this pie fell on Xue Shi's head. This is the King of Beilin. Being the adopted son of the King of Beilin is a blessing that my ancestors could not have achieved in eight lifetimes.
This godfather is not in vain. He is very generous. He gave me ten shops and ten thousand taels of silver.
"Have you named him?"
Xue Shi hurriedly replied: "Yes, I specially invited a master to name my son."
"What is his name?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
Xue Shi said: "It's just Nan."
Shen Yu raised her head and met Xie Tingzhou's eyes. There was obvious surprise in her eyes.
"It seems that he is really a master."
"The master is in the mansion." Xue Shi asked the servants to invite him.
In a moment, a man came from the archway. He was wearing a plain white monk's robe with wide sleeves. He walked silently, but he looked no more than twenty years old.
Walking closer, the monk put his hands together, "Amitabha, my name is Xuan Jing, may I ask who is looking for me?"
Xie Tingzhou glanced at Xuan Jing, "Master named him Nan, is there any meaning?"
"Yes." Xuan Jing nodded, "This is his name in his previous life."
Xue Shi's cheek twitched, "Haha, Master really likes to joke."
"Monks don't tell lies." Xuan Jing said: "This child is named Nan, and he can be safe for a lifetime."
Shen Yu looked at the child, he was already asleep, maybe he would remember the past, maybe not, but that didn't matter, she just wanted him to be safe in this life.
We will meet again, right? Those who left have concerns, they will come back, they will meet again.
The cruise ship broke through the water and went down the river.
Xuan Jing stood at the bow, the river wind blew his wide sleeves and hem.
Xuan Jing came from Linyan Island, in the same direction as them, so he took them along.
He turned to look at Shen Yu, "Madam, you and the baby today have a connection."
"What connection?"
Xuan Jing: "It's a connection from the previous life, and it's a connection from this life."

The following is an excerpt from the lyrics of Zhao Lei's "I Remember"
She told me a lot of stories about your growth.
At the other end of the starry sky, the longing never stops, just like the name on the tombstone.
Don't cry my dearest, my best playmate.
Time and space are a circle, whether we go straight or turn, we will meet in the end.
At a corner of the city, at sunset, in a window screen with thousands of lights.
People have lost their memory of reunion.
