After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

The guests of Anyuan Marquis' Mansion had almost no interaction with the Governor's Mansion, so Meng Qianqian's face was extremely unfamiliar to the guests on the scene.

Not to mention Bai Yuwei.

She was a daughter of the Miao people and had rarely appeared in important occasions.

Manager Ji tried his best to wink at Third Madam Xie, but Third Madam Xie was so angry that she ignored him completely.

"What are you still standing there for? Send them away! All the guests here today are honored guests. Can you afford to offend them?"

It has to be said that these words successfully pleased the guests who were watching the fun.

Everyone was also waiting for Meng Qianqian to be driven away by the servants of the Marquis' Mansion.

At this moment, Nanny Lu took small steps and hurried to the door.

She had come here as fast as she could, but she didn't expect the situation to get so bad.

Without even taking a breath, she stopped the servant who was about to chase Meng Qianqian away and said to Third Madam Xie, "Third Madam, this is the old lady's distinguished guest."

"What? Mother's guest?"

Mrs. Xie suspected that she had heard wrongly, and pointed at Meng Qianqian blankly, "She is obviously a..."

Madam Lu bowed to Meng Qianqian. Since there were so many guests, she omitted the names and said directly, "The old lady invites you."

Meng Qianqian raised her chin and followed Nanny Lu into the mansion.

"Hey--"

Madam Xie San looked at the backs of the people and stamped her feet angrily, "Manager Ji! Come here!"

She called Manager Ji aside and asked, "Which guest of my mother's is she? How come I have never seen her before?"

Steward Ji looked embarrassed and said, "Madam San, please go ask the old lady yourself. I dare not say anything."

Mrs. Xie glared at him and left with a frown.

Unexpectedly, she was stopped by servants at the gate of Madam Xie's yard.

The maid guarding the yard said, "Third Madam, the old lady is busy right now. If you have anything to ask, you can go find the first lady."

Mrs. Xie became even more curious.

What is the origin of that crazy girl? Why is she so mysterious?

Soon, Nanny Li and Banxia brought Baoshu out who had just woken up.

Mrs. Xie wanted to step forward and ask, but she felt it was beneath her dignity and turned away coldly.

In the upper room, Old Madam Xie was sitting on the Luohan bed, and Meng Qianqian was sitting on the embroidered stool in front of her.

The furnishings in the house were very exquisite. Although they did not look luxurious or ostentatious, every item had a history. Some were awarded by the previous emperor, some were given by concubines, and there were also many tributes from the court and calligraphy and paintings by famous artists.

It can be seen that the Marquis's Mansion cares a lot about their family heritage and is proud of it.

Old Madam Xie has a kind face, but as the former mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, there is always a hint of sharpness in her brows.

She smiled and said, "Mrs. Lu, I am very grateful that you can come to celebrate my birthday."

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "Madam Xie, you are too kind. In terms of seniority, I should call you grandma. How can I not come to your birthday party?"

Madam Xie was slightly surprised, but she smiled after a moment: "You are a straightforward person who doesn't speak in secret."

Meng Qianqian said frankly: "Qianqian doesn't understand those twists and turns. I'm sorry to make Old Madam Xie laugh."

Madam Xie did not respond, but rubbed the bracelet on her wrist.

Meng Qianqian whispered, "I apologize for offending you last time. Madam Xie, please forgive me."

Old Madam Xie looked at Meng Qianqian deeply. Meng Qianqian raised her eyes and met Old Madam Xie's gaze.

Madam Xie didn't see any evasion in her eyes, and kindly took her hand and said, "Your mother has been away from you for many years, so it's understandable that you have resentment in your heart."

"To be honest, I only knew about you not long ago. My good son, he has been hiding it from me as a mother. Otherwise, I would have brought you to the Marquis' Mansion earlier and you wouldn't have suffered for so many years."

Old Madam Xie was very smart. She did not put all the blame on Yu, but let her son take half the blame.

Invisibly, people will feel that she is a good mother-in-law.

If Meng Qianqian really had a deep admiration for Yu, she would have already begun to be grateful to Madam Xie at this moment.

Madam Xie held Meng Qianqian's hand and said earnestly, "Child, I know you blame your mother. Your mother did make a mistake, but she also regretted it. I heard from the Marquis that she often secretly wiped tears at night and missed her child very much. The most regrettable thing in life is that the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to support his parents but they are no longer there!"

Meng Qianqian lowered her eyes.

Madam Xie struck while the iron was hot: "Forgive your mother. From now on, you will be the eldest daughter of the Marquis' Mansion."

Meng Qianqian paused and asked calmly, "I'm not of the Marquis' bloodline, I'm afraid I'm not worthy of being the eldest lady."

Madam Xie smiled and said, "So that's what you're worried about. I've thought about it for you a long time ago. I'll just tell everyone that you're Ling'er's long-lost twin sister. You were twins born in the same womb, but you were taken away after you were born and grew up in the Meng family in Youzhou."

Meng Qianqian smiled secretly, it turned out that even her background had been "arranged".

This kind of thing was something she rarely saw in dramas, and she never expected it to happen to her.

He wanted to win over the Governor's Office, but he didn't want the reputation of the Marquis's Office to be tarnished, so he let them get all the benefits.

Meng Qianqian said: "I want to see my mother first."

Old Madam Xie gave Madam Lu a wink, and Madam Lu immediately invited Yu, who was entertaining guests in the front hall, to Old Madam Xie's courtyard.

"You two can chat while I go change my clothes."

Old Madam Xie left the house with the help of Nanny Lu.

"I heard you wanted to see me."

Yu's attitude was very cold.

Meng Qianqian changed her usual behavior and did not argue with Yu. Instead, she looked at her expectantly: "Today I am not Meng Xiaojiu. I want to talk to you as Meng Qianqian."

Yu knew that her name in the military camp was Meng Xiaojiu. There was nothing wrong with these words no matter how you listened to them at first or carefully, but Yu felt something was wrong.

Meng Qianqian pointed to the stool beside her: "Mom, can you sit with me for a while?"

Yu looked at her in confusion, then walked over and sat down beside her.

"I've missed you so much all these years."

Meng Qianqian emptied her mind, "When I was a child, I thought you were really gone. I went to worship you secretly and often dreamed of you. It was the first time I knew you were still alive and that I could see you as long as I married into the capital. I was so happy that I was not even afraid to leave home."

"But after I arrived in the capital, I didn't see you for a long time. I thought you might not have received the letter from the Yu family. After another month, I heard that you were no longer in the capital. But I thought that as long as I stayed in the capital, you would come back."

"But I didn't wait for you... I was really cold when I was underwater..."

"enough!"

Yu interrupted Meng Qianqian.

Meng Qianqian’s words made her uncomfortable, and she didn’t want to listen anymore!

Meng Qianqian's eyes were filled with tears: "Mom, have you ever thought about me and my brother over the years?"

Yu turned around and said, "Didn't the old lady promise you? From now on, you will be the daughter of the Marquis' Mansion."

Meng Qianqian stared at her without blinking: "I don't want to be someone else's daughter, I just want to be yours. As long as you nod, I will go talk to Old Madam Xie now. I can be the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, but my mother must be you."

Yu suddenly became excited: "Meng Qianqian! Do you really want to destroy me?"

Meng Qianqian asked in confusion: "Ruin you?"

Yu turned around and looked at her, clutching her handkerchief tightly, saying, "I don't want the people in the capital to know my past! Why are you so ignorant? Why do you have to embarrass me? The old lady has already agreed to let you enter the mansion, and has also given you Ling'er's status as the eldest daughter. You can still call me mother in the future, and I will treat you like I treat Ling'er. What are you not satisfied with?"

After saying that, she walked out without looking back.

Under the windowsill, the eavesdropping team expanded from Qingshuang to Tan'er, and later to Bai Yuwei.

Bai Yuwei said with her eyes: So she is so miserable.

Tan Er: We need to reverse the pipe!

Meng Qianqian's tears fell.

Yet there was no trace of sadness on her face.

She stared at the tears on her fingertips and said coldly: "Meng Qianqian, did you see it? It's not because of my bad temper that she doesn't recognize you. Even if you are so humble, she still doesn't want you."

There was a dull pain in my heart.

Meng Qianqian's eyes became even colder: "Does it still hurt? This is the only time I indulge you, and it will be the last time. If you dare to feel pain next time, I will stab you with a knife. I, Shang Xiaojiu, will not be controlled by your obsession forever."

Bai Yuwei looked at Tan'er and Qingshuang in horror: Did you all see it? She is really crazy! A good person was driven stupid by her own mother!

Qingshuang looked confused: Isn’t Madam Meng Xiaojiu?

Tan'er looked up at the sky and thought: Shang Xiaojiu, this name sounds so familiar.

Yu stormed out of the house.

Madam Xie frowned: "What's going on with the old lady? Is there trouble again?"

Soon, Madam Xie saw Meng Qianqian walking out calmly and gracefully.

Madam Xie said anxiously, "Qianqian! Was your mother upset with you again? If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let you meet her alone. She has a stubborn temper."

Meng Qianqian smiled slightly: "Grandma, what are you talking about? My mother and I had a very pleasant conversation. Thank you, Grandma, for making me understand my mother's painstaking efforts."

Madam Xie heaved a sigh of relief, took Meng Qianqian's hand and said, "It's good that you understand, it's good that you understand! The guests are here, I will introduce you to everyone now."

Meng Qianqian curled her lips: "Okay."

Little girl, just watch me, I'm going to avenge you right now.
