The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

The next morning, Xue Jinhua got up at daybreak, and then woke up Zhao Yuxuan. They had planned to send Brother Fan to Prince Zhuang's mansion, but before they could leave, the people from Prince Zhuang's mansion had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuxuan and Xue Jinhua were a little surprised. Seeing their expressions, Zhao Yufei hurriedly explained, "Brother, sister-in-law, the prince wanted to come and pick up Brother Fan back home in person, but the prince was in poor health and couldn't stand the cold, so he had to let me take his place."

Zhao Yuxuan remained silent, while Xue Jinhua smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the prince would attach so much importance to Brother Fan. The Marquis was originally worried that Brother Fan would not be used to it when he came to Prince Zhuang's mansion! Now it seems that there shouldn't be any problems!"

In fact, no matter how Prince Zhuang's Mansion treated Fan Ge'er, Zhao Yuxuan was unwilling to let Fan Ge'er leave his side. But Xue Jinhua said this in front of Zhao Yufei just to deliberately make Zhao Yuxuan feel uncomfortable.

Zhao Yufei understood that his brother cared about Fan Ge'er very much, so he looked at Zhao Yuxuan, trying to see some clues from his expression.

Xue Jinhua saw Zhao Yuxuan's hands clenched into fists, as if he was trying to restrain something, but he finally convinced himself to slowly loosen them. She sighed softly and said, "Yes! Since the prince values ​​Brother Fan so much, I believe Brother Fan will not suffer any grievances after he passes by."

Zhao Yufei showed a look of joy on his face, and said hurriedly: "It's getting late, let's go back early!"

So, the group headed towards Prince Zhuang's Mansion in a mighty procession.

When they arrived at Prince Zhuang's mansion, Xue Jinhua discovered that the mansion had made unusually grand preparations for Fan Ge'er's return, even a little too ostentatious, as if they were afraid that others wouldn't know.

Seeing this, Zhao Yufei quickly explained, "Ever since the prince died heroically on the battlefield, the entire palace has been shrouded in a heavy atmosphere of deathly silence. Now that Brother Fan is back, the prince is sincerely happy, so he specially ordered his servants to buy a large number of firecrackers, hoping to dispel the bad luck and foul air in the palace."

Hearing this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but lower her eyes, thinking to herself, if Brother Fan is really the blood of Prince Zhuang's mansion, such behavior is understandable. However... In fact, Brother Fan is not the biological child of the prince!

Although she knew the hidden truth, she had no evidence!

Although the midwife was found and proved to be the one who delivered Xue Qing'er's child, she could not prove that the father of the child was Zhao Yuxuan. Xue Jinhua and Zhao Yuxuan had different expressions, one with a worried look and the other with a gloomy face.

Zhao Yufei also felt that he had said too much today, so he quickly said, "Look at me, what am I talking about on such a happy day! Come on, let's go in!"

The adoption of a son by Prince Zhuang caused such a big fuss that naturally all the neighbors knew about it.

For a moment, when Brother Fan got off the carriage, there were quite a few people watching. Although the prince did not go to the mansion to pick him up in person, he was standing at the door of his mansion waiting for him. This move undoubtedly gave Brother Fan enough face.

Moreover, Xue Qing'er followed behind him, her face filled with joy. It can be seen that she was happy from the bottom of her heart that her biological son could return home.

"Is this Brother Fan?" Although the prince was old, tears welled up in his eyes when he saw his "grandson".

Others were a little surprised to see this scene. Prince Zhuang's family just adopted a child, but why were they so excited as if they were meeting their own grandson?

Now he is just an adopted grandson, and those who don’t know would think he is his biological grandson!

Zhao Yufei was afraid that he would be exposed later, so he quickly tried to smooth things over: "My Lord, it's windy outside, let's go in first! Brother Fan is back now and will not leave, you have plenty of time to spend with him."

The prince's housekeeper also said, "Prince, it's cold outside. I'll push you in right away."

Brother Fan hid timidly behind Zhao Yuxuan. Zhao Yuxuan wanted to go over and hug him, but in front of so many people, he could only endure and restrain himself.

A hint of sneer appeared on Xue Jinhua's lips. She followed the prince and her elder sister in.

.........

Next was the adoption ceremony, which she was not interested in. Zhao Yufei knew what she was thinking and arranged a guest room for her to rest.

"Yufei, the mansion is busy today, you don't have to take care of me here, I can do it alone, and there are so many guests in the front yard waiting for you to greet them!" Xue Jinhua looked at Zhao Yufei and said softly.

Although Zhao Yufei felt that this was inappropriate, he had a lot of things to do today, so he said gratefully, "Thank you, sister-in-law, for being so considerate of me. After today, I will make an appointment with you alone."

After Zhao Yufei left, Xue Jinhua took Sakura to the backyard.

As soon as I entered the backyard, I saw a figure wearing a black cotton coat.

Sakura almost blurted out, "Second Master...Second Master..."

Xue Jinhua just frowned slightly, but Second Brother Xue ignored Yinghua and looked directly at Xue Jinhua with cold eyes, as if he wanted to see through her. He slowly said, "Sister, I have something to talk to you about."

Xue Jiahua's face showed a trace of confusion and innocence, as if she knew nothing about everything. She said softly: "Second brother, if you have anything to ask, you might as well say it directly."

Seeing her so frank, Xue Erge was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to start. He turned his head suddenly and shouted at Yinghua: "You blind girl, can't you see that I have something important to discuss with your lady? Get out of here!"

Yinghua was feeling anxious, but without Xue Jiahua's permission, she still stood straight.

Seeing this, Second Brother Xue became even more furious, and asked with his eyes wide open: "Sister, is this the maid you trained?"

Xue Jiahua smiled slightly and said calmly: "Second brother, why bother with a little maid? The adults are generous."

Sakura knew she couldn't stay here any longer, so she turned around and left reluctantly. But she didn't go far, instead she found a safe corner nearby and waited silently.

Xue Jiahua watched Yinghua leave, smiled softly, and turned her gaze to Xue Erge, with a sly look in her eyes. She said slowly: "Second brother, why are you suddenly questioning me like this? Isn't it a good thing that Prince Zhuang's Mansion recognized Brother Fan?"

After hearing this, Second Brother Xue became even more angry and could not help but ask loudly: "Sister, what exactly do you want to do? Why did you instigate Prince Zhuang's Mansion to come and recognize Brother Fan?"

"Then second brother, you are wrongly accusing me. Brother Fan is the child of Prince Zhuang's mansion and Xue Qing'er's flesh and blood. What I am doing is helping Brother Fan return to his mother. I am helping her."

Second Brother Xue's face turned pale. He knew that Xue Jinhua didn't mean what she said, but he couldn't find any fault with it.

"Xue Jinhua, you'd better be sensible and don't let me find out that you are playing tricks, otherwise I will..."

"Second brother, what will you do?" Xue Jinhua interrupted him fearlessly, a cunning flash in her eyes, "Could it be that second brother is planning to let everyone know that Brother Fan is the Crown Prince's consort and his biological son?" Her voice was somewhat provocative, as if challenging Second Brother Xue's bottom line.

"You..." Second Brother Xue was so angry that his face turned blue and his teeth were chattering. "Xue Jinhua, are you threatening me?" He glared at the seemingly weak woman in front of him, his heart filled with anger and helplessness.

"Second brother, you are joking. We are a family. I am just reminding you that this is neither the Xue family nor the marquis's residence. This is Prince Zhuang's residence. There are so many guests coming and going today, even the prince will be here. Be careful that your words are overheard by others. If so, it will be Xue Qing'er who will be implicated!" Xue Jinhua's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a hint of disdain in his tone.

"I dare not!" Xue Erge was shocked and quickly denied it. He knew that what he had just said might have serious consequences. If someone with ulterior motives heard it, it would definitely cause an uproar. And he did not want to make a big fuss, especially when it involved Xue Qing'er.

However, Xue Jinhua showed a hint of sarcasm on her face, as if she could see through his inner thoughts: "Second brother, you don't have to scare me with this. I'm just telling the truth. If you really want to make a big deal out of this, then go ahead and see who will be punished then." Her eyes were firm and indifferent, without any intention of backing down.

After all, when Xue Qing'er was pregnant, Prince Zhuang's Mansion was completely unaware of this matter. Now that the child has grown up, he suddenly wants to return to his ancestral home. If the secrets involved were to be known by others, Xue Qing'er would probably be drowned by all the gossip.

Prince Zhuang's Mansion didn't want anyone to know, and the Xue Mansion was even more unwilling.

Hearing this, Second Brother Xue was so angry that he couldn't say a word. But Xue Jinhua sneered in her heart, "Is this unbearable for you? Don't worry, the fun has just begun!"

From the moment Brother Fan returned to Prince Zhuang's mansion, the drama officially began.

"My sister is right. This matter really cannot be known to outsiders." Brother Xue was about to get angry when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, followed by a thin figure walking in.

"Fourth Master." Sakura called respectfully.

Xue Jinhua turned around and saw that this Fourth Brother Xue was thinner than Second Brother Xue, but he exuded the shrewdness of a businessman.

"Fourth brother." Xue Jinhua called out lightly.

Hearing this, Fourth Brother Xue did not answer immediately, but turned to look at Second Brother Xue next to him, indicating something with his eyes.

"Second brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived. Go to the front yard to greet him."

Second Brother Xue was a little older, but when facing his younger brother, he was a little afraid and did not dare to disobey him.

"Sister, Qing'er's birth was very secretive. Even the midwife at the time didn't know Qing'er's true identity. So the question is, how did the mistress of Prince Zhuang's mansion know about Brother Fan's background?"

In comparison, Fourth Brother Xue was much calmer, his words were sharper, and he directly pointed out the key points.

Xue Jinhua's fingers bent unconsciously, trying to hide the nervousness in her heart, and then she smiled as if she was relaxed.

"Fourth brother, it sounds like you are doubting me, as if I deliberately leaked the news to Prince Zhuang's wife. It's a pity that I know nothing about it. How about this, since fourth brother doesn't trust me, how about we go to the wife and ask her clearly?"
