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

Yuan Yu left the Chang'an Palace on horseback by himself.

In order to prevent his mother from scolding him again when she turned around and saw him, Yuan Yu turned to Zhuque Street and planned to buy some cakes from Chen's shop for his mother.

The last time he went home, his mother was eating this and said that it was sent to her by Miss Xu.

His mother was full of praise for the young lady from the Xu family and she also liked the pastries very much.

According to his mother's original words,

"They say I have two sons, and I am blessed with a happy life. But your elder brother is busy with the Imperial Guards all day long, and you are also a jerk. I can't count on you two brothers now, so I hope your wife can get married soon, so that I can have someone to talk to in the future."

Thinking of the scene when his mother spoke that day, Yuan Yu still wanted to laugh.

His mother is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and grudges.

It was also the first time that Yuan Yu saw her praise a woman like this.

No matter what his feelings were towards the young lady from the Xu family, based on his mother's attitude towards her, Yuan Yu would never let her down in the future.

Therefore, what Princess Changle said that day was really in vain.

The moon is bright and the air is clear tonight.

Although it is not a full moon, it still shines brightly on people.

Yuan Yu, still in his official uniform, sat high on the horse, looking at the lights and people coming and going in front of him. After a long sigh, he smiled and continued to ride forward.

The scenery on both sides passed by him neither fast nor slow.

He thought to himself.

Find some time to visit the Xu family.

They have been engaged for so long, but he has never visited the Xu family. It is neither logical nor moral.

She treats his mother well.

Naturally, he had to treat her better, not letting others have anything to say about her, and certainly not letting others look down on her.

As for the woman who saved him three years ago——

Thinking of that woman, Yuan Yu still felt a little regretful.

Because he didn't want others to talk about her, he didn't even dare to paint her portrait, for fear that doing so would affect her reputation.

Only his personal bodyguard knew about this in private.

He has been looking for her all these years, but to no avail.

Sometimes, Yuan Yu couldn't help but wonder if he had met some forest monster or fairy from the Ninth Heaven. Otherwise, why couldn't he find that person after so many years?

I vaguely remember that she was wearing plain clothes and plain clothing at that time.

But later he went there many times, but never saw the woman again.

Or maybe she has already married and left there early.

No matter what the result is, he and she are destined not to be together. He could wait in the past, but it is difficult to wait now. It is unfair to anyone.

Yuan Yu lowered his eyes.

After sighing again in his heart, he finally put the matter deep in his heart.

The past cannot be pursued.

If we meet again someday, I'll see if she needs any help.

The official uniform rustled in the evening breeze.

Yuan Yu was still wearing an official hat on his head, and his already handsome face was illuminated by the moonlight, making him look even more like a handsome man.

He rode along the way and saw countless people looking at him.

He didn't look away, just had a smile on his face.

Chen’s shop is just ahead.

Yuan Yu slowed down a little, but was stunned when he saw the carriage parked in front of the door.

On the outside of the carriage outside the Chen family shop, there was a word "Xu" clearly hung.

"No way..."

Yuan Yu looked over there, whispered in astonishment, and was very shocked.

...It can't be such a coincidence.

Although he had prepared himself mentally and thought about finding time to visit the Xu family, Yuan Yu still felt a little uneasy when he met them suddenly.

Holding the reins in my hand, I subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave.

But the horse's head tilted a little and was stopped by Yuan Yu again. Yuan Yu looked at the Chen family shop in front and gritted his teeth.

That's it!

Better go and have a look.

If it wasn't the Xu family, then there would be no need for him to hide.

If it really is that Xu family, then he should not hide.

Thinking of this, Yuan Yu still went forward. He was worried and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Mr. Yuan?"

The coachman recognized Yuan Yu's figure first.

The coachman was an old man from the Xu family. He often drove the young ladies and ladies from the family to the Yuan family. It was obvious that he knew Yuan Yu.

When he saw Yuan Yu coming, he naturally greeted him quickly.

When Yuan Yu heard this, he knew that this Xu family was the Xu family he was engaged to.

No matter what Yuan Yu thought.

But he was still very gentle and polite. After getting off the horse, he nodded to the driver and asked in a good-natured manner, "Which master of yours is inside?"

The driver naturally did not hide it, and replied with a smile: "My eldest daughter, our lady has a poor appetite, and she came to buy some delicious cakes for our lady."

The young man in front of them is their future son-in-law.

The coachman naturally hoped that their eldest daughter could spend more time and get along well with her future son-in-law.

At this moment he took the initiative to ask: "Do you want to come in?"

Even if you don’t want to go, you have to go.

Besides, Yuan Yu originally wanted to go in and say hello.

He nodded to the coachman, said, "I'll go and say hello to your girl," and then walked in by himself.

There are not many people in the shop at this time.

Apart from the shopkeeper, there were only two servants of Xu Zhaojun.

The shopkeeper was packing things for them.

Xu Zhaojun sat aside drinking tea and waiting.

Xu Zhaojun's personal maid Heng Wu was instructing the shopkeeper: "Remember to pack the two cakes separately and make them look nice. Remember to put an extra portion of osmanthus cake in one portion and an extra portion of sesame slices in the other. Don't make a mistake. This is what our girl wants to give to her elders."

When Yuan Yu came in, he heard these words.

He paused in his steps.

His mother’s favorite pastry is this sesame cake.

He came here specially today just to buy these sesame slices so that he could take them back to please his mother.

I didn't expect that Miss Xu was already doing this.

Yuan Yu's heart suddenly became complicated, with gratitude and regret for himself.

The girl cares so much about his mother.

He actually wanted to turn around and leave just now, which was really wrong.

He coughed lightly, without looking up, still with his eyes downcast, and was about to introduce himself and say hello to his fiancée.

But Hengwu saw him first.

"Second Young Master Yuan?" Heng Wu also recognized Yuan Yu.

"Are you here to buy some cakes, too?"

She asked Yuan Yu, then turned back happily and said to Xu Zhaojun, "Miss, it's the second young master!"

Xu Zhaojun was drinking tea and didn't notice the person who came in.

After hearing Heng Wu's words, she looked up at the familiar young man not far away. Facing her fiancé, Xu Zhaojun was not as nervous as Yuan Yu.

She looked calm.

I didn't feel embarrassed nor ashamed.

She just calmly put down the teacup in her hand, then stood up with the help of the table, and walked towards Yuan Yu, who had kept his head down and never looked at her.

After reaching a suitable distance.

Xu Zhaojun stopped and said, "Second Young Master Yuan." She greeted Yuan Yu with a calm attitude and a gentle tone.

Almost at the moment she opened her mouth, Yuan Yu understood why his mother, who had always been very picky, liked this girl from the Xu family so much.

In these matters, he was far behind her.

"Miss Xu, there's no need to be so polite."

Yuan Yu also quickly started talking to Xu Zhaojun.

He spoke gently, explaining his purpose while looking up at Xu Zhaojun: "Last time I heard my mother say that the sesame slices you gave her were delicious. I happened to be free today so I came here to buy some. I didn't expect..."

The following words——

Yuan Yu suddenly stopped when he saw Xu Zhaojun's face.

His originally gentle and polite expression suddenly changed when he saw Xu Zhaojun's face right in front of him.

His eyes widened in almost disbelief. It was the first time he lost his composure like this in public.

"you--"

"It's you!"
