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

Memories of past lives are fleeting.

Ming Jin didn't think about it further.

At that time, Zhou Que did not tell her who the person he liked was, and she did not ask. Anyway, from then on, she and Zhou Que worked together from inside and outside.

However, Zhou contacted people outside for her.

She told Zhou Que all the people who could be used, and helped Gu Changye to capture the capital.

Ming Jin actually had no intention of having any contact with Zhou Que in this life.

She had already repaid his kindness.

She helped Zhou Que, and Zhou Que also helped her.

enough.

I didn't expect they would run into each other like this.

What he didn't expect was that he would see Zhou Que being bullied by people from Qingyuan Earl's Mansion.

Ming Jin didn't know how Zhou Que's right hand became disabled in his previous life, but now it seems that it might be because of this time...

"cousin."

Zhou Shuangyue next to her was still chattering about the past between them and Aunt Fang. Her words and actions actually meant only one thing, which was to ask her not to tell Ming Jingheng and Zhou Zhaoru.

Mingjin doesn't talk so much.

However, Zhou Que had helped her in the past after all. If Zhou Que had not helped her at that time, she would not have been able to contact Gu Changye so easily, let alone bring down Gu Changxuan so easily.

Now that you've seen it, you might as well help him.

"I understand what you said, and I understand it."

"But Zhou Que is my uncle's child after all. He is fifteen this year. He will have to go out and get married in the future. The door outside is closed, and outsiders will not know what happens inside, nor will they care. But if it gets out... Cousin, I am worried about you and my aunt."

Ming Jin looked at Zhou Shuangyue and suddenly sighed: "In this world, praise and criticism are all in the mouths of others."

"Those people outside won't care what you and your aunt did, nor what Aunt Fang did. They will only think that your aunt treated her illegitimate son harshly..."

With every word Mingjin spoke, Zhou Shuangyue's face turned paler.

When Ming Jin finished speaking and looked at her sighing, Zhou Shuangyue's face was already paler than the snow on the eaves in winter.

Not only is his face pale, but his body is also cold.

It was a hot day and the sun was still shining brightly overhead, but Zhou Shuangyue felt cold all over.

When Mingjin and I walked to the pavilion where the other concubines of the Zhou family were resting.

"Second sister, cousin, you are back!"

The young ladies of the Zhou family who were drinking scented tea in the pavilion saw the two men coming back and stood up quickly with a smile.

Mingjin nodded slightly to them.

Just as he was about to go in, his arm was suddenly grabbed by Zhou Shuangyue beside him: "Cousin..."

Zhou Shuangyue's weak voice came to my ears.

Mingjin hummed and stopped.

Looking at Zhou Shuangyue's pale face, she asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Shuangyue pulled her sleeve and whispered, "I will tell mother about my third brother. I will never let anyone bully him like this again."

She mustered up the courage to finish this sentence.

Mingjin looked at her and nodded with a smile.

After Zhou Shuangyue finished listening, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, several young ladies from the Zhou family suddenly ran over and said with a smile from a distance: "What is the second sister whispering to the cousin?"

Four faces of different sizes but equally good-looking appeared in front of Zhou Shuangyue and Ming Jin.

Zhou Shuangyue stammered, not knowing what to say, but Ming Jin beside her laughed first: "Nothing, just talking about my birthday this month."

Ming Jin looked at everyone and said, "August 23rd is my birthday. I would like to invite all the sisters to come to my house and play."

When everyone heard this, they naturally smiled and agreed.

After spending half a day together, they liked Mingjin's personality very much and were naturally happy to interact with her.

Besides, how could they refuse the invitation from their master?

Soon, everyone's attention was attracted by Mingjin's birthday.

Everyone talked about this.

Zhou Shuangyue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When she looked at Ming Jin again, the gratitude in her eyes became even stronger.

The group sat in the pavilion for a while and had tea and snacks.

Until Jingyue, who was beside Zhou Zhaoru, came over and called Mingjin: "Miss, the Madam is ready to go back."

Mingjin hasn't spoken yet.

Zhou Shuangyue opened her eyes slightly wide and asked in surprise, "Why are you so anxious?"

The other young ladies of the Zhou family had the same idea.

Jingyue naturally couldn't explain the reason, so she could only make up an excuse and said, "There's an urgent letter from home, and Madam has to rush back to deal with it."

That's what I said.

Zhou Shuangyue didn't know how to stop him. She felt sorry and thought she hadn't talked enough with Mingjin.

"Then I'll go play with my cousin next time." Zhou Shuangyue said to Ming Jin with a look of regret.

Ming Jin naturally would not refuse, and said with a smile: "If cousin wants to come and play with me, come over anytime."

When Zhou Shuangyue heard this, she was delighted.

Mingyao had never invited her like this before. Her aunt was busy with work, so she naturally couldn't go to the Marquis' Mansion all the time with a shameless face. But now she had a reason.

She couldn't hide her feelings at all and nodded happily, and naturally treated Mingjin more intimately.

The group of people returned to the flower hall where they had dinner.

But anyone could see that the atmosphere in the flower hall was different at this time, or in other words, Zhou Zhaoru and Feng were different.

Although the two of them had not been very close before, at least it had not reached this point.

Not to mention Zhou Shuangyue, even the eight-year-old Miss Zhou Ba noticed it. She didn't dare to speak for a moment, and huddled behind her sisters, pretending to be invisible.

"coming."

It was Zhou Zhaoru who spoke first when he saw them come back.

She was drinking tea, but she put down the teacup and said to Mingjin, "Let's go."

Ming Jin naturally had nothing to say.

After saying something to Feng, Ming Jin saw that Feng didn't pay much attention to her. She didn't care and followed Zhou Zhaoru, ready to leave.

Zhou Shuangyue, who didn't know what was going on, looked at her mother and aunt and became anxious. Seeing Zhou Zhaoru was about to leave, she hurried forward and said, "Aunt, you..."

She wanted to ask what happened between her and her mother.

But before she could say anything, she saw the look Zhou Zhaoru was giving her.

Unlike her previous gentleness, Zhou Shuangyue looked at her aunt at this moment and felt that the emotions in her eyes were extremely complicated when she looked at her.

Zhou Shuangyue was inexplicably frightened, and her voice shrank unconsciously: "Aunt, Aunt."

Zhou Zhaoru looked at Zhou Shuangyue without saying anything.

Feng suddenly shouted with an extremely ugly expression: "Shuangyue, come here!"

When Zhou Zhaoru heard this, he was speechless.

She said "Go ahead" to Zhou Shuangyue, and then left with Mingjin.

"aunt!"

Zhou Shuangyue still wants to pursue her.

But Feng would never let her pass, and she shouted angrily again: "Stop right there!"

Zhou Shuangyue was forced to stand firm.

The atmosphere in the room was very strange. The other illegitimate daughters of the Zhou family did not dare to say a word at this time, for fear that Feng's anger would spread to them.

A group of people were silent.

Feng didn't want to embarrass her precious daughter in public, so she said calmly, "You guys leave first."

"Yes."

The four illegitimate daughters of the Zhou family all withdrew in response.

Afterwards, the maids and servants around Feng also retreated outside.

Zhou Shuangyue still didn't know what happened. She just looked at her mother's ugly face and her aunt's appearance which was completely different from before she left. She couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what happened between you and aunt? What did you say?"

Mrs. Feng didn't want to tell her daughter about those dirty things, so she just said in a deep voice: "Don't think about your cousin anymore."

"what?"

Zhou Shuangyue was slightly stunned, and when she realized the meaning of these words, her face immediately turned pale.

"Why……"

"why?"

Feng's anger was aroused all of a sudden, and she said angrily: "Because he has such a mother!"

"What does this have to do with my aunt?" Zhou Shuangyue cried out.

She was puzzled, not understanding what had happened in such a short while.

She had clearly made an appointment with her cousin to visit her at the Marquis' Mansion in a few days, so why did this happen...

"What does it have to do with her? It has a lot to do with her!"

Feng said angrily: "It's uncomfortable for me to have a woman like this as my sister-in-law, let alone being your mother-in-law in the future!"

"If it weren't for the fact that Heng'er is a good kid, I wouldn't have let you have this idea!"

"But you can stop thinking about this now."

Feng didn't want to say anything too extreme, but if she didn't explain clearly to her daughter, she might have to keep this in mind and embarrass herself in front of Zhou Zhaoru.

Thinking of Zhou Zhaoru's attitude towards her and Shuangyue just now, she clenched her teeth and refused to let go.

She would be embarrassed once for such a thing, but she didn't want her daughter to be embarrassed as well.

"Your aunt is ambitious. She looks down on our family and you. She doesn't want you. She doesn't want you to be her daughter-in-law. Do you understand?" Seeing her daughter, whom she had loved since childhood, becoming paler and paler, Feng felt uncomfortable.

She sighed and wanted to hold the person in her arms to comfort her.

Zhou Shuangyue's face was pale and she stepped back step by step.

Feng's hand failed and her face turned a little grim, especially when she heard her muttering "impossible, impossible" over there, she became even more angry.

Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Shuangyue turned around and ran away crying.

"Miss!"

Mother Zhang saw Zhou Shuangyue running out and tried to chase her, but Feng's voice came from behind: "Let her go! If she wants to embarrass herself, she can go! No one can stop me!"

Mother Zhang had no choice but to stop.

Watching Zhou Shuangyue crying and running away, Zhang's mother had no choice but to go back to the house. Seeing Feng pressing her temples again in pain, she could only help her sit back on the chair, then pressed her head and said earnestly, "The girl is still young. You talk to her slowly. She will listen."

"You've said so much right at the beginning. How can the girl accept it?"

"You think I want that?"

Feng was angry and helpless: "I feel more distressed than anyone else when I see her suffering! But what does that bitch Zhou Zhaoru mean, don't you see?"

"If I don't explain it clearly to Shuangyue, she will continue to act stupidly given her personality."

Speaking of Zhou Zhaoru, Feng was filled with rage, and even gritting her teeth was not enough to vent her anger!

She clenched her fists.

For the first time in her life, she bowed her head to Zhou Zhaoru for her daughter's marriage, but that bitch... Thinking of the way Zhou Zhaoru frowned at her just now, as if questioning how she had the nerve to say such words, Feng was filled with rage!

"I want to see how high she can climb!"

"It's a sin for Heng'er to have a mother like her. Just wait and see, there will be trouble in their family in the future! She can't even clean up her own ass, but she has the nerve to act arrogantly in front of me. Ugh!"

"She is just a marquis' wife. If she hadn't been lucky enough to be reborn, she would have been engaged to Princess Fuhua at birth. Do you think Princess Fuhua would like her? She only likes her because of my poor mother-in-law."

"How dare you look down on me and Shuangyue!"

"Pooh!"

After Feng had scolded for a while, she gradually calmed down. She waved her hand and told Mother Zhang to stop pressing the button.

"An adopted daughter, the other a biological daughter... these two are not easy to deal with." There is no need to say anything about Ming Yao. With such a background, she was able to climb to this point and gain a foothold in the capital. It can be seen that she is a capable person.

As for her own niece, she overshadowed Mingyao as soon as she came back. It was obvious that she was not a simple person for Zhou Zhaoru, that bitch, to cherish her so much.

But Zhou Zhaoru hasn't realized it yet and thinks he is very powerful.

Feng sneered, "Zhou Zhaoru acts so fair and just that she won't let anyone go. If things get rough in the future, she'll be the one who gets burned the most!"

"It's better for Shuangyue to stay away from people like this."

"Zhou Zhaoru looks down on us, and I feel disgusted with her."

In the end, she was worried and afraid that Shuangyue would not be able to figure it out, so she chased Zhou Zhaoru to find out. So Feng asked Mother Zhang to go out and find out.

Knowing that Shuangyue had just gone back to her room to cry, Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tell the kitchen to prepare more of her favorite food for her today. Love is the easiest thing to let go of. She will cry and make a fuss for a few days and then she will be fine when she is tired."
