The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Since ancient times, marriages have been started at dusk, and women have been married off since dusk.

It was a fine morning.

Although it was already late autumn, the sun was still warm, shining through the layers of maple leaves and falling into the courtyard of the Xue Mansion. The maple-red light and shadow actually had a hint of warmth and festive atmosphere.

But it is unknown what the mood of the person who is about to get married is.

If the Xue family had only married off Xue Hanshu, there would not have been any need for such a grand wedding, but the other party happened to be the eldest son of the Zhao family, the Yongping Marquis's mansion. Even for the sake of the Zhao family's face, the wedding could not be too simple.

It was not yet time for her to get married, and there were still several hours before the guests arrived.

It was at this time that the Fu family arrived.

Jiang Xuexuan.

The small window lets in light and shadow.

Compared to the busy wedding banquet elsewhere in the Xue Mansion, this place seemed particularly quiet.

Xue Zhiyi used her slender white fingers to twist an eyebrow pencil and carefully traced it.

Her appearance was not stunning, but very gentle and kind, especially her eyes, which were bright and clear, as if carrying the moonlight, and looked particularly innocent and harmless.

Su Yue's voice was like petals falling on a pond, creating ripples in the silence of the moment.

"Miss, the people from Madam's family have arrived and are hosting a banquet in the main hall. Madam wants you to come over."

Xue Zhiyi raised his hand and gently touched his lips with his rouge-stained fingers. The child's delicate lips were like slowly opening petals, instantly becoming fresh and juicy.

She responded with a faint smile on her face: "I know."

Today she was wearing a smoky pink dress. As the weather turned colder, she also wore a short-sleeved jacket with rabbit fur trim, which made her look cute and dignified.

Her fingers lingered on the table for a while, and finally she chose a hibiscus silk flower to place on her hair, and also chose an agate hairpin. Although the style was simple, the quality of the agate on it was obviously not vulgar.

After looking at herself in the mirror and making sure she was dressed properly, she stood up and said to Su Yue and Qiu Yun, "Let's go. Don't keep my uncle and the others waiting for too long."

……

main hall.

In order to entertain the Fu family, Fu Ling prepared dinner in advance.

As soon as Xue Zhiyi arrived at the door of the main hall, he heard laughter from inside.

She lifted her skirt and stepped in.

There was a round table in the main hall, and maids and servants were standing in a row serving.

Xue Zhentong and Fu Ling sat at the head of the table, followed by Fu Wei and his wife Hu Shuixian.

In order, the next one is Xue Tingsheng, followed by Tang Jinglei and Xue Ruoyu.

Aunt Rong's family was not present, so the children of the Fu family sat at the end.

When Xue Zhiyi arrived, the couple were chatting and laughing with Fu Wei.

Her aunt Hu Shuixian seemed to be a person of unrestrained temperament, with the demeanor of a merchant girl. At this moment, she was laughing loudly: "Zixian went to work on a ship for his father a few days ago. He is still in Jiangnan now. He can't come back for a while, and even things like going to Huajing to attend the wedding banquet have been delayed."

This refers to Fu Zixian, the eldest son of the Fu family.

Fu Ling also joked: "It's a pity if that's the case. I haven't seen Zixian for many years. I thought he was just a child, but I didn't expect that he could already work as a sailor for his father!"

At the side, a girl with a round face and round eyes, covered in tinkling pearls and jade, interrupted and said, "If my brother knew that my aunt missed him so much, I'm afraid he would regret it so much!"

After not seeing each other for many years, Xue Zhiyi recognized that this person was none other than Fu Jiamin, the youngest daughter of the Fu family. Just like in her previous life, she still had terrible taste and wished to hang all the money she had on her body.

Next to her was another girl who was a few years older than her. She looked somewhat similar to her, but her temperament was completely different.

The girl was wearing plain moon-white clothes and a simple headdress. She was serious and even when she smiled, she would just purse her lips and cover her mouth lightly with a handkerchief.

When she was sitting, she was extremely dignified, with her neck and shoulders incredibly straight.

This is Fu Jiahui, the eldest daughter of the Fu family.

And beside Fu Jiahui... Xue Zhiyi's heart suddenly tightened.

Although equally dignified, the person next to Fu Jiahui behaves in an unusually relaxed manner. Her dignified and elegant demeanor seems to emanate from within, without requiring any special attention, as if it is natural.

In such a contrast, Fu Jiahui does not seem dignified but rather pretentious.

As if she had noticed something, the woman slowly turned her head and met Xue Zhiyi's eyes.

This woman has affectionate eyebrows and sparkling eyes. Although she looks a bit like Fu Ling and is a little thin, her affectionate eyes are unforgettable at first sight.

Such a beauty made the two sisters Fu Jiamin and Fu Jiahui standing beside her look dull and dim.

It is no wonder that she is known as the most beautiful woman in Linzhou.

Whether in the past life or this life, Xue Zhiyi has never denied Fu Rongxin's appearance.

It was this face that allowed Fu Rongxin to obtain many conveniences in her previous life, and was also one of the weapons that allowed her to eventually climb to the throne.

The smile on Xue Zhiyi's lips deepened a little: Long time no see, Fu Rongxin.

The moment his eyes met hers, Fu Rongxin was obviously stunned for a moment.

It was just a moment of stunned silence, which was soon drowned out by the smile that bloomed on the corner of her mouth.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, and when she smiled, her eyes curved, adding a bit of stunningness to her appearance.

"Cousin Zhiyi."

She called out.

It was this sound that focused everyone's attention on the entrance of the main hall.

The eye contact just now made Xue Zhiyi feel strange in her heart: for some reason, she always felt that Fu Rongxin seemed a little different from her impression in her previous life.

But she couldn't tell where the difference lay. Perhaps... perhaps it was just that she knew the truth of everything in this life, and her perspective on Fu Rongxin was different from that in her previous life, so she felt this way?

Thinking of this, Xue Zhiyi calmed down and bowed to several elders.

"Zhiyi has met his father, mother, uncle, aunt, and several cousins. They came from afar and must have worked hard on the journey."

As soon as she bowed, the three young ladies of the Fu family also stood up and bowed in return.

Fu Wei and Hu Shuixian also had polite smiles on their faces.

Hu Shuixian's hearty laughter rang out again: "Zhiyi has grown into a big girl. She hadn't grown taller when I last saw her. Now she is here to attend Si Niang's wedding. I don't know when I can attend Zhiyi's wedding!"

Xue Zhiyi also maintained a generous smile on his face: "I am still looking forward to when cousin Jiahui can find a good husband, so that I can also be happy."

Hearing this, Fu Jiahui lowered her head slightly and smiled without showing her teeth: "Sister, you are not ashamed to say this."

After some boring politeness, Xue Ruoyu waved at her: "Zhiyi, come and sit next to my eldest sister."

Xue Zhiyi nodded and sat next to her as she said.

Everyone had arrived, and Fu Ling said to Mother Xing beside him, "It's getting late, serve the food."

At this moment, Xue Zhiyi did not notice that although Fu Rongxin had a smile on her face, there was an inexplicable meaning in her eyes...

From the first moment she saw Xue Zhiyi, Fu Rongxin became instinctively alert: she felt that Xue Zhiyi was a little strange.

It’s so weird... I always feel that her eyes have become inexplicably sharper compared to her previous life.

But from Xue Ruoyu's perspective, she could see Fu Rongxin's expression clearly, and her brows furrowed slightly.
