145 That Bracelet Was Your Mother’s Favorite When She Was Alive
Granny Yuan naturally wouldn’t reject Shen Yaowei’s request. She said to Zi Yun, “Zi Yun, please take these accounts to the General for him to take a look. I’ll bring Miss to the Moon Pavilion to take a look.”
The Moon Pavilion was where Shen Yaowei’s mother lived when she was alive.
In the center of the Shen residence was a small, two-story attic. The surroundings of the attic were as beautiful as paradise. There was also a cherry tree planted not far ahead.
“My Lady, do you still remember that I told you before that this cherry tree was planted by your mother when she was pregnant with you?” Granny Yuan looked at the cherry tree with a nostalgic gaze.
Shen Yaowei walked around the cherry blossom tree and said, “Granny Yuan, this cherry blossom tree seems to bloom all year round.”
She would come here when she had nothing to do, but she usually stayed outside the attic and rarely went in.
Song Lingyun didn’t want her to enter the attic. She had told her behind her back how important the Moon Pavilion was to her father. If she went in and broke something, her father would definitely be sad.
Therefore, when she especially missed her mother, she would come to sit under this cherry blossom tree.
“It probably blooms all year round because your mother planted it and entrusted it with her longing,” Granny Yuan said gently.
Everything had a spirit, even a blade of grass or a tree.
Shen Yaowei nodded, not fully understanding.
“Please follow me, my lady,” Granny Yuan said, leading the way.
Shen Yaowei followed Granny Yuan to the attic.
Every day, servants would come to the attic to clean it, so everything in the attic was very clean. Even the door lock looked brand new.
Granny Yuan opened the door and let Shen Yaowei enter first.
The air smelled of sunlight. With a subtle feeling, Shen Yaowei stepped across the threshold.
They were in the front room. There were two rooms behind the front room and a staircase that led to the second floor.
Shen Yaowei stood slightly in the front hall and looked around.
Coupled with the fact that she hadn’t been here in her previous life, she felt like she was dreaming.
All the furnishings and decorations here retained the appearance of her mother when she was alive. Even the flowers in the vase in the house were her mother’s favorite. Someone came to change them every day.
Thinking of her, Shen Yaowei walked to the table not far away.
She saw a portrait of a beautiful woman hanging on the wall behind the table.
The beauty in the painting was riding a white horse. She was dressed in a scarlet suit with a long set of accessories at her waist, making her beautiful face look more heroic.
It was the appearance of her mother in her memory.
Although it was only a painting, she could sense determination and gentleness in her mother’s eyes.
Granny Yuan also walked forward and knelt down in front of the painting. “Miss, did you see that? Our Eldest Miss has really grown up. I can follow her and take care of her again.”
“Granny Yuan…” Shen Yaowei squatted down slightly and helped Granny Yuan up. She raised her hand and pointed at her mother’s wrist on the painting. “Mother, this bracelet is so beautiful. Why have I never seen it before?”
Granny Yuan stared at the woman’s wrist in the painting.
The woman was wearing a bracelet that was almost dark green, a sharp contrast to her red clothes.
“That bracelet was your mother’s favorite when she was alive. Your mother’s favorite jewelry was kept in the back room. My lady, shall I show you?”
