Noble Lady Jing Zhao

Chapter 30
The mother and daughter looked at each other, Xie motioned for her daughter to go in first.

I was talking to Nanny Song outside.

Mrs. Xie asked some more questions, and Nanny Song answered them all.

The stepmother in the Sumu Hou Mansion was the cousin of the old Marquis' original wife. The family was worried about the two sons from the original wife, so they sent this one here.

When Mrs. Mu came over, she was already twenty-one.

There was also a marriage that was arranged since childhood, but when she was 15 years old and was about to get married, her fiancé suddenly disappeared on the way to Beijing.

Report to the official at home and search for countless places.

But people still haven't found it.

The old lady stubbornly refused to marry another.

After waiting for six full years, she later married into the Su Muhou Mansion to fill a house.

At that time the eldest master was only seven years old, and the second master was only two years old.

The old lady raised the two sons carefully.

Unexpectedly, the eldest man didn't like the old lady and moved out to live elsewhere early.

But the second master is ignorant and only thinks that the old lady is his biological son.

Blindly acting like a baby and playing around, the old lady and the second master have really become their own mother and child.

Later, the old lady never gave birth to a son or a daughter for the old marquis, and she only devoted herself to the second master.

Seeing that the old lady was loyal, her mother-in-law felt relieved.The whole family also moved away from Kyoto early due to the exile.

Unexpectedly, as soon as her mother's family moved out of Kyoto, the old lady's true identity emerged.

All day long, the second master was arguing with the elder master.

The relationship between the two brothers is getting weaker and weaker, and the second master is also influenced by the thoughts instilled by the old lady.

He single-mindedly replaced his elder brother.

Old Hou Ye had noticed something strange early on, but the second child had already been spoiled by upbringing.

I can only make plans for my eldest son in advance and choose a daughter-in-law with a good family background.

Temperament is also resolute.

After all, he did not disappoint the old Marquis.

It's just that no one expected that Zhao's natal family would go wrong later.

"Do you know whose house the old lady is looking for?"

Xie asked.

Zhao's identity is something that a high-ranking family in Kyoto probably wouldn't know.

After all, news about Su Mu Hou's earning a title has already spread in the capital.

No one wanted to take advantage of others' danger, or sided with the old lady early on.

Not because of anything else, but because Mr. Zhao gave birth to Mr. Mu, a thorn in the head.

If he was told to know about this matter, he would be the master who is capable of making trouble with a big knife in his hand.

Seeing Mrs. Xie ask this question, Nanny Song blushed hatred in her eyes, and said, "It's Mr. Xue, a wealthy businessman from the capital, take pity on our wife..."

Xie didn't know about these things.

Nanny Song added, "Master Xue is already sixty now, and he said he wanted to take our wife over to be his concubine!"

Xie was shocked.

Could it be that Mr. Xue is desperate for his life?
With Zhao's current status, even if her natal family is in decline, she can retain her identity in the precarious Zhao family.

It can be seen that the emperor was unwilling to express his anger and was worried about Marquis Su Mu.

How dare this Xue family?
"Master Xue's mother is the daughter of the late emperor's concubine, the eldest princess Yong'an, who married into the Shen family..."

Only then did Xie understand.

No wonder Mr. Xue dared to move this idea.

Mrs. Mu's thoughts are really vicious.

"Then what are your wife's plans?"

Nanny Song sighed several times and replied, "Now we can only rely on the eldest son, but our wife can't get out. Fortunately, Mrs. Ye San came to visit today, which can be regarded as solving our wife's urgent need."

inside the room.

Ye Jingzhao sat beside the couch, and Mrs. Zhao struggled to get up.

She hurried forward and helped Mrs. Zhao to sit up.

Mrs. Zhao has been so angry these days that she hurt her body all of a sudden.

I thought I could only wait to die.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly saw hope, and saw that it was his beloved future daughter-in-law.

The depression accumulated in my heart for many days gradually dissipated.

"Why are you free today? Don't be afraid of me like this."

Mrs. Zhao remembered that she hadn't washed and washed very much these days.

Thinking about it must be extremely haggard.

Zhao extended his hand, and Ye Jingzhao raised his hand to hold Zhao's hand.

She shook her head with a slight smile, and said softly, "Mrs. Mu, it's all right, what's wrong with you?"

"Everything is fine when I see you here."

After Zhao finished speaking, Ye Jingzhao didn't know how to speak.

After all, this Su Muhou Mansion is not Cheng En Bo Mansion.

It was extremely difficult for her to see Mrs. Zhao.

"How did you come in? The old lady is not in the house?"

"Mrs. Mu is not at home today. A young maid who sweeps the house in the Second Madam's yard brought us here."

Zhao was obviously stunned for a while.

Thinking of this second younger brother and sister, she married into the family.

It was just a courtesy to her.

The two are not close, but they don't have much animosity either.

But how could the second sibling know?

Is the cleaning maid in her yard Zhao's eyeliner?

Because he is only responsible for some cleaning work on weekdays, he rarely has the opportunity to leave the house.

The second sibling knows that the maid is her own?
Mrs. Zhao obviously underestimated her siblings.

Thinking of that maid, once she uses it today, she might not be able to keep it.

That was Zhao's last remaining spy in the uncle's house.

"Mrs. Mu, I am here today because of the coming year, so I want to give you a gift."

She changed the topic, and while talking, she took out the silver hairpin and stretched it out in front of Zhao's eyes.

Zhao's dark eyes lit up with a glimmer of light.

Weakly, he stretched out his hand to take it and murmured, "This hairpin is good, you took the trouble."

After the words fell, he wanted to put the silver hairpin on the hair bun.

Seeing this, Ye Jingzhao motioned for Mrs. Zhao to come.

After finishing the silver hairpin for Zhao, I took out the bronze mirror.

Mrs. Zhao praised her repeatedly, "You are a good kid. I will accept your offer. I will send someone to send you some gifts in return some other day."

When I thought of the jewelry in my house, my mother-in-law led people to search it away.

Zhao's face looked a little lonely.

Ye Jingzhao refused to ask for it, and declined to talk about it later.

Before leaving, Mrs. Zhao took the letter and asked that it must be delivered to Mu Yanzong.

Another thank you.

Only then did Mrs. Xie take her daughter out of the Sumuhou Mansion.

After getting on the carriage, Ms.

The uncle's carriage drove away for a while.

He was stopped by someone.

Xie's heart tightened and she looked at her daughter.

Ye Jingzhao hurriedly handed the letter from Zhao to her and kept it tightly behind him.

The car curtain opened, and it was Mother Wang with a smile on her face, saying, "Madam, it's the third master."

Mr. Xie breathed a long sigh of relief.

Ye Jingzhao's tense mind relaxed.

Mrs. Xie opened the curtains, looked out of the carriage, and saw that the master was also riding in the carriage, and said, "I have searched for you all the way, so I have found you."

Xie was slightly stunned.

"Today, my boss suddenly held a banquet in the mansion, and he specifically asked me to go with my wife."

Mr. Ye San entered the Hanlin Academy and his boss was an upright and honest man.

Seeing that he was steady and thoughtful in his work, I couldn't help but take him a little more seriously.

Today I specially called him to come to the house, just because I didn't want him to come to the house with a generous gift.

But Mr. Xie was thinking about Ms. Zhao.

"Mother will accompany father to the banquet. After all, this is the first banquet hosted by father's boss. Mother doesn't have to worry about it, she has her own daughter."

But Mrs. Xie still refused.

Ye Jingzhao gave several more instructions, and Mr. Ye San asked two boys to follow him.

Xie finally complied.At the end, he asked Mama Wang to go with her.
