The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

It was Mother Cui who first discovered Mingjin's departure.

Seeing the girl walking out without looking back, her face changed immediately. She opened her mouth to call out "girl", but the girl walked very fast and walked out of the house in a short while. She chased her for a few steps but couldn't catch up, so she had to stop talking.

Look back.

Looking in the direction of Zhou Zhaoru.

Mother Cui originally wanted to tell her about her girl's current situation.

But when she heard the heavy coughing over there, and the lady's nervous and concerned look, shouting for someone to go and see where the doctor is... knowing that she couldn't call the lady now, Mother Cui could only shut up helplessly.

Mother Cui was afraid that the girl would be alone and sad, so she couldn't let her leave alone.

Besides, the girl just returned home and doesn’t know where to live. If she leaves like this, where can she go?

Mother Cui was worried and saw that everyone was busy over there, so she didn't say anything to Zhou Zhaoru and just followed Mingjin out.

She was old, and her leg strength and energy were not as good as those of young people. She ran out of the house, panting, and finally saw the girl who had walked into the yard.

When the servants in the yard saw Ming Jin coming out alone, they didn't know what to do or say. They could only stand aside and watch her walk farther and farther away.

The girl walked in the yard without looking back.

She was all alone and looked very lonely, but she never stopped moving.

At this moment, for some reason, Mother Cui felt very scared.

She was afraid that the girl would really leave without looking back, leaving the home she had just returned to.

The fear in her heart drove Mother Cui to shout at Ming Jin's departing back, "Girl!" with her heart beating rapidly and hotly.

As Mother Cui spoke, she hurriedly ran forward a few steps.

When Ming Jin heard her voice, he stopped and turned around. Seeing her running towards him panting, Ming Jin even considerately reached out to help her.

"Why did mom come out?" Ming Jin asked her with a smile.

Looking at the girl in front of her who was talking and laughing happily as if nothing had happened, Mother Cui felt a little relieved and thought that she might have been overthinking.

The girl didn't mean to leave.

But as the fear passed, she felt even more sad for the girl.

How could such a good girl have such an experience?

But she was just a slave after all. What could she, a servant, say about what her master said?

She opened her mouth to comfort her, but looking at the girl's bright and flawless face, she was unable to utter a word.

But in his heart he couldn't help but blame the Sixth Girl.

Why did he have to get sick when the girl came home? The lady couldn't see it, but how could they, the outsiders who were watching, not see this trick?

Sixth Miss did this on purpose.

Knowing that the lady was going to take this road, he deliberately tried to snatch the lady away in front of the girl.

Mother Cui didn't know the reason for this, whether it was to let the girl see the family situation clearly, or to make the lady love her more and maintain her own status.

But she still felt very unhappy about it.

However, the lady was actually fooled by the Sixth Miss with such a crude trick, and ended up ignoring her.

He didn't even notice that the girl had left.

No wonder the girl left alone.

Mother Cui was feeling uncertain. Sometimes she blamed Mingyao for being ignorant, and sometimes she was worried about how to comfort the girl.

I was so hesitant that I couldn't utter a word.

How could Ming Jin not know what Cui's mother was thinking? She had no intention of embarrassing her, and was too lazy to say more about the mother and daughter inside. She looked at Cui's mother and said, "I'm tired, mom, take me back to my room to rest first."

"Good good."

When Mother Cui heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what, let's leave here first. When she comes back, she will talk to the lady and ask her to comfort the girl so that she won't really think that she is being ignored.

"I will help you over there."

After she finished speaking, she personally helped Mingjin walk out, trying to save Mingjin's face and dignity.

After all, she is Zhou Zhaoru's confidant and represents Zhou Zhaoru's face outside.

There is still a big difference between her being there and her not being there.

Mother Cui did this on purpose.

There are so many eyes watching in the mansion. The young lady just returned home today and the wife was snatched away by the Sixth Young Lady. I'm afraid this news will spread throughout the mansion in less than an incense stick of time.

A large house with many people is difficult to manage.

Mother Cui doesn't want her daughter to be secretly bullied or treated as a flatterer as soon as she returns.

Sure enough, they just walked out of Jiangyun Garden.

Mother Cui saw quite a few people standing outside, looking around here, but when they saw them come out, they all lowered their heads and acted respectful.

If the girl wasn't still here, Mother Cui would have scolded them one by one.

But looking at the girl beside her, Mother Cui really didn't want her to see so many dirty things when she came back.

She could only bear it for the time being and turned around to speak nicely to the girl.

"Your yard is just in front, not too far from Madam's place. Everything there was picked out by Madam herself, and they are all good things."

"The people who serve in the courtyard were also selected by Madam for you. They are all from the family. You don't have to worry about them not being obedient."

"But the Madam still plans to let you personally choose the maidservant after you return."

While supporting Mingjin and walking towards Mingyue Garden, Mother Cui spoke up for Zhou Zhaoru, trying to tell the girl that the lady did love her.

The lady was also looking forward to her coming back.

Mingjin, however, was not interested.

It was similar to the previous life, nothing new, and she was a little uninterested.

But regarding the selection of this maidservant——

Ming Jin thought to herself that in her previous life, when she returned to the Marquis' Mansion, she did have two maids, one named Yingyue and the other named Xingyue.

These two people were actually secretly assigned by Ming Yao.

Mingyao had placed the chess pieces around her from the very beginning, and Mingyao would be the first to know what she did.

Although they were just minor fights, Ming Jin hated people who betrayed their own people the most, so when he had the chance, he got rid of these two people.

However, at that time, she had already offended several people in the mansion and was not liked by Ming Yuandu and Zhou Zhaoru.

Mingyao was sure of victory and there was no need for them to pass on the message.

They would probably be happy to leave.

Ming Jin doesn’t know yet whether these two people will come as scheduled in this life, but she already has a candidate in mind for the head maid.

In his previous life, Hua Sui came to serve her later.

She and she depended on each other for survival. They were clearly master and servant, but they were more like family members.

It can be said that after her grandmother passed away, Hua Sui was the best person in the world to her. In every difficult moment of her life, Hua Sui stayed by her side and never left her.

But at this time, Hua Sui should not have entered the Marquis' Mansion yet.

Mingjin was thinking secretly in his heart.

She knew where Hua Sui was now, but how to get Hua Sui into the Marquis' Mansion and how to get him to be with her was a problem.

She was thinking about these things in her mind, and for a moment she didn't pay attention to what Cui's mother was saying, until she heard Cui's mother's puzzled voice: "Girl?"

She just blinked her eyes gently, as if nothing happened, and looked at Mother Cui with a smile: "What's wrong?"

Looking at the girl beside him, whose smile was still there but not in her eyes.

Mother Cui, who had been speaking well of Zhou Zhaoru, was silent for a while. In the end, she was too embarrassed to continue speaking, and instead said something else: "I just want to tell you what you like and don't like on a daily basis. Just tell the maids in the room and they will send it to the kitchen."

"Tomorrow, a special embroiderer will come to take your measurements and tailor the clothes for you. You can tell them what style and color you like."

Ming Jin nodded to show that he understood.

After that, Mother Cui said many other things, but seeing Mingjin's mood, she didn't say anything good for Zhou Zhaoru.

……

the other side.

The doctor who had been arranged long ago finally arrived.

Mingyao's loud coughing finally died down.

Zhou Zhaoru breathed a sigh of relief and gave her seat to the doctor, allowing him to feel her pulse. She finally had time to take a breath and do other things.

"Yan..."

She thought of her daughter.

I turned around and was about to talk to her.

But there was only the maid who accompanied him in the room, and there was no sign of his daughter.

Zhou Zhaoru frowned, thinking that Yanyan was sitting somewhere, so he stood up and walked a few steps to look around.

But no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't find any trace of the girl.

Zhou Zhaoru finally panicked. She hurriedly asked the maid who was accompanying her: "Where is the girl?"

"girl……"

Several maids noticed Zhou Zhaoru's anger, and they looked at each other, but finally they lowered their voices and told the truth: "The girl is gone."

"what!"

Zhou Zhaoru looked shocked.

"When did she leave?" Zhou Zhaoru asked angrily before they could speak, "Are you dead? The girl left without even telling me!"

After Zhou Zhaoru finished speaking, he prepared to walk out.

But how could Mingyao, who had been observing Zhou Zhaoru's movements, let her go? She had finally managed to keep her mother, and if her mother just followed that woman and left, how would others look at her in the future?

"Cough cough cough-"

Another violent and rapid cough came from behind, stopping Zhou Zhaoru from leaving.

It was at this time that Zhou Zhaoru realized that she still had a daughter to take care of. She turned around and walked over to ask the doctor who was treating Mingyao: "What's going on? Why is Yaoyao's cough so severe?"

The doctor was the family physician, his surname was Chen.

Doctor Chen had already accepted the benefits given by Mingyao, so he naturally knew how to respond.

At this time, facing Zhou Zhaoru's question, he stood up and answered truthfully: "The girl is just too worried and worried, which is why she is like this. She just needs to rest well and not worry, and she will recover."

"Too much worry?"

Zhou Zhaoru was stunned and asked in confusion, "Why is Yaoyao so worried for no reason?"

Doctor Chen naturally found it difficult to respond to this, and no one else dared to respond either, but Zhou Zhaoru quickly figured it out.

She returned her gaze to the girl on the bed.

The girl lay on the bed with a pale face. She stopped coughing and even the previous flushed color disappeared.

It was at this time that Zhou Zhaoru discovered that the girl lying on the bed had obviously lost a lot of weight recently. Her cheeks were thin, which made her chin look sharper and her eyes look bigger.

Eyes that are clearly black and white.

Unlike before, when she always had a gentle and soft smile, she now looked uneasy and flustered. When she saw her looking over, the girl looked at her and timidly called out, "Mom."

Just one word was enough to make Zhou Zhaoru soften his heart.

Thinking of the girl in her memory, who always called her "Mom" in a soft voice and was always by her side.

Zhou Zhaoru said nothing, and couldn't say anything.

She sighed softly, sat on the edge of the bed, held Mingyao's hand, and said to her helplessly: "Girl, didn't mother tell you that nothing will happen, you are still mother's good daughter, why are you..."

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes again.

Zhou Zhaoru had no choice but to shut up and start wiping the tears for the other person.

Qian Shuang and Qian Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and they led Doctor Chen out, ostensibly to write a prescription, but in fact they wanted to give the place to the mother and daughter so that they could talk in private.

Naturally, they also took away the people brought by Zhou Zhaoru.

Otherwise they would stay here and talk nonsense, destroying the relationship between the girl and the lady.

The people Zhou Zhaoru brought were hesitant at first and were unwilling to leave, but when they saw the lady sitting there talking softly to the Sixth Miss, she looked the same as before and didn't mention the girl again, they hesitated for a while and finally didn't dare to disturb her anymore, so they followed Qian Rong and Qian Shuang and retreated outside.

Mingyao finally breathed a sigh of relief when she caught a glimpse of the empty house.

She listened to Zhou Zhaoru's chattering, telling her to be at ease and take good care of herself. She just nodded and agreed softly, but her eyes were still red and her voice was still low.

Looks pitiful and weak.

Zhou Zhaoru saw this and felt very sorry for him.

After all, she is the daughter he has loved for ten years. Although there is no direct blood relationship between them, the feelings they have for each other day and night are not fake.

She didn't say anything to Ming Yao, just asked her to have a good rest and not to think too much.

Mingyao agreed to everything.

After talking to each other for a few words, Mingyao looked at the woman in front of him and saw that her eyes were beginning to become unfocused again.

Knowing that her mother was thinking of that woman again, Mingyao's heart tightened again.

She didn't show it on her face, still pretending to be pitiful and weak, but her hands hidden under the quilt were clenched tightly.

My fingers and flesh began to hurt from clenching.

"Mother, are you thinking about Sister Yanyan?" Mingyao asked softly.

"what?"

Zhou Zhaoru came back to his senses.

Facing the girl's gaze, she nodded without hesitation: "Yes, your sister just came back, but I..."

Zhou Zhaoru frowned slightly and felt that what she did was really wrong. No matter what, she shouldn't have neglected Yanyan.

The first day Yanyan came back, she was like this...

I don’t know what Yanyan would think?

Although she didn't mean it, Zhou Zhaoru was still very worried.

Mingyao's mood became worse and worse. Her chest felt like it was being pressed by a heavy stone, making it difficult for her to breathe.

But she still had red eyes and said to Zhou Zhaoru with a guilty look: "It's all my fault. I was wrong. I will go and apologize to Sister Yanyan later."

As she spoke, she began to cough softly again.

When Zhou Zhaoru saw her coughing, how could he think of anything else? He immediately frowned again and persuaded her: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you should take good care of yourself and don't think too much."

"As for Yanyan——"

Zhou Zhaoru hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yanyan is so well behaved. I'll go talk to her about it later. She will definitely understand."

She still dreamed that her family could live in harmony, and she felt that her two daughters would definitely get along well in the future.

Yes.

Yanyan is so well-behaved, she definitely won’t be angry with her.

Mingyao did not comment on this and just acted obediently.

But after Zhou Zhaoru fed her the medicine and left in a hurry, her face, which had been pretending to be pitiful, immediately became gloomy.

She clutched the quilt tightly.

Looking at the direction Zhou Zhaoru left, she didn't dare to show any anger even though she was angry. She could only clench her palms until there were blood-red nail marks.

And Ming Jin.

Mingjin had already gone to bed.

When Zhou Zhaoru hurried over after seeing Ming Yao, she was turned away at Ming Jin's door.
