Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system Chapter 148: The Holy Woman of Miao Region

"Enough discussion, let’s see how the cat reacts when Mu Qing and Xiaoyun return." Mr. Han advised.

After half an hour, Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Mu ca in, supporting each other.

Once they were seated, Mr. Xia looked towards Xia Yue, asking her to question if the cat recognized them.

"Xuanxuan, which of them was that insect heading towards?" Xia Yue inquired, setting Xuanxuan down and directing her towards them.

Xuanxuan glanced at the two elderly won and then went to Mrs. Xia, owing towards Xia Yue, "ow, the master is her."

"Grandma?" Xia Yue gazed at Mrs. Xia, disbelieving.

"How could it be you?" The others were equally surprised, assuming it would have been Mrs. Mu.

"What’s wrong?" Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Mu stared bewilderedly back, confused by the cat’s behaviour and their surprised reactions.

Everyone turned to Mr. Xia, encouraging him to explain.

Mr. Xia repeated to Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Mu what Xia Yue and Xia Xi had just said.

"Xiaoyun, do you know anyone who might harbor great hatred towards you? If so, the search would be easier." Mr. Xia asked his wife.

Mrs. Xia, upon hearing this and noticing everyone staring at her, fell silent for a few minutes, seemingly plunged into reminiscence, before sighing in resignation.

"In the end, the truth has been discovered. It seems to be fate." she said glumly.

Upon hearing these words, everyone realized that she had rembered sothing unknown to the rest of them.

"Xiaoyun, you..." Mr. Xia looked at his wife, his voice tinged with uncertainty.

"Old Xia, rember when we first t? If it weren’t for you, there wouldn’t be a Yue Yun today." Mrs. Xia smiled at her husband who had stood by her side for so many years.

"I rember that. The three of us went off-roading, but we drove off a hilltop due to speeding. Even though I managed to brake, the car and I tumbled downhill nonetheless. You rescued from the wreck, and perford ergency treatnt on so that I could be sent to the hospital.

To repay you for your kindness, I enrolled you in school as you requested... After several years spent together, I fell in love with you and married you... Now here we are." Mr. Xia replied, chuckling.

"Yes, more than sixty years have just flown by, but it seems the person from the past has finally tracked down. I told you before that my family was a minority and all died from illness. Unable to stay in my hotown any longer, I sought work outside." Mrs. Xia nodded and continued speaking.

"Right." Mr. Xia nodded. Back when they got married, his parents had looked into her background. As her story checked out, they left it at that and made no further investigations.

"My parents did die, but I was the holy woman of the Miao Region and was forbidden from leaving the Miao Region. But I longed to see the outside world. At that ti, the High Priest’s son was very weak and required a type of poisonous insect called the White Gu for treatnt. This insect could only be raised successfully with the holy woman’s blood.

The High Priest wanted to marry his son so it would be easier to draw blood. But I refused.

With both my parents dead, I seized this opportunity to escape. That’s when I t you.

I thought I could take this secret to my grave. I never expected it to be revealed today because of a Ghost Poisonous Insect." Mrs. Xia remarked, sounding quite helpless in the end.
