Mother and daughter reborn and swap bodies, both of them went crazy
Chapter 181: Madam Du is worried about Huang Xianjing's future marriage
"Young lady, I have just cooked a bowl of Qi-replenishing and psychiatric soup. Please take some..."
Huang Xianjing saw Nanny Du walk in with a tray, her old face full of worry.
She felt warm in her heart and a little guilty, and sat down at the round table obediently.
The medicine soup has been left for a while and is now ready to be taken.
Nanny Du has always been concerned about her health. Although Huang Xianjing doesn't like drinking medicine, she still picked it up and drank it in one gulp.
Aunt Du wanted to feed her candied fruit, but she shook her head and just drank a sip of water to clear the bitter taste in her mouth.
"Mammy, I'm fine—"
Just now in Haitang Courtyard, Qiuju "broke in" carrying Dongkui on her back and begged the princess and her cousin to seek justice for her...
Later, my uncle, aunt, three cousins, and the brother and sister from Furongyuan all went there.
The aunt asked the princess to stay as a witness, but signaled to her to leave. She knew that something big was going to happen, so she quietly retreated.
Not long after returning, he heard that a little maid had died in Furong Courtyard. Before her death, the maid left a will saying that Sheng Mingzhu had tricked her into poisoning someone.
Not long after, Jixue, the eldest maid in Furongyuan, also died. She confessed to all her crimes before her death.
Two people died at once, one testified that Sheng Mingzhu had committed murder, and the other proved that Sheng Mingzhu was innocent...
She didn't know what Sheng Mingzhu had done, nor did she know if her cousin or aunt had done anything...
But she could feel that the struggle in this mansion was becoming more intense!
Before Sheng Mingzhu returned home, the house was relatively peaceful. But now, it can be described as "in dire straits".
Huang Xianjing was really afraid that the conflicts in the mansion would reach an irreconcilable point, and by then... someone might even die in the mansion.
She was afraid that her cousin and aunt would be hurt.
Therefore, after returning, Huang Xianjing was always uneasy, walking around the house, and asked Hongdou and Dujuan to take money to go out and find out the latest news...
"Young lady, I have something to say that I shouldn't. The Seventh Young Lady is the daughter of the Sheng family. She is smart and capable.
"She has her mother to protect her, and Lord Sheng seems to love Miss Seven. Compared to her, you should think more about your own future...
"You are now old enough to be together, you should think more about yourself..."
Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Nanny Du spoke out what she had been holding in her heart for a long time.
Huang Xianjing's face turned red and white after hearing this. She naturally knew that Madam Du was worried about her marriage.
Both her parents have passed away. Although her maternal ancestors have relatives in the Lin family, her aunt has contacted the Lin family several times in recent years, but the Lin family...does not dare to get close to her.
She didn't blame the Lin family. The Lin family were just merchants. Since ancient times, common people and merchants have been afraid of officials. How dare the Lin family snatch her from her uncle?
She can't rely on the Lin family, the only one she can rely on is her aunt.
Her aunt had nothing to say about her in recent years and even hired a famous teacher for her.
She also had the servants send her things every month. Her food, clothing and other expenses were almost the same as her cousin's. No servant in the Sheng family dared to look down on her.
Her aunt always took her with her when she went out so that she could show herself in front of all the ladies.
Her cousin was also very good to her, and it was thanks to her cousin that she was able to become close friends with the princess.
Except for not helping her get back the Huang family's property, there was nothing wrong with her aunt in other aspects.
As for the matter of family property, Huang Xianjing felt that her aunt should not be blamed.
A few years ago, my aunt took the initiative to take back her dowry and put a lot of thought into it.
Because the Sheng family had no foundation, the fact that they can live such a life now is inseparable from the Huang family's money.
In order to ensure the current life of the Sheng family, my uncle will never give up the meat in his mouth.
If her aunt had helped her to get the Huang family's property at that time, her uncle would probably have been furious.
When people act on impulse, no one knows what they will do.
The situation might become very dangerous for her.
Over the years, Huang Xianjing has had complicated feelings towards her uncle Sheng Yong.
Speaking of hatred, if she hadn't had Sheng Yong's protection, she, a little girl with so much money, would probably have ended up with a miserable end of being exploited.
Even if she went to her maternal grandfather Lin's house, she could not guarantee that she would live a better life than now.
If she said she had no complaints against Sheng Yong, then it was hers after all, and she couldn't help feeling angry because Sheng Yong had occupied it for so many years.
But what can she do now?
Sheng Yong said that when she gets married in the future, she will return the Huang family's property in full.
But how many good families in Kyoto are willing to marry an orphan?
If she marries someone who is greedy for money, how can she have a good life?
"Young lady, please don't think I am too long-winded."
Nanny Du spoke again with red eyes, her voice very low.
"If you reach that age and no one comes to propose marriage, Lord Sheng will definitely take the opportunity to propose that you... become a wife of the Sheng family...
“There are five brothers in the Sheng family, and it’s impossible for the eldest young master.
"The remaining three young masters are the third and fifth young masters, one of whom is in poor health and the other has a bad temper.
"Besides, the relationship between the two of them and Madam, Miss Seven, and you is not harmonious.
"If you marry either of them, your life... won't be very good...
"The two illegitimate young masters are good-looking and well-behaved, but... after all, they are illegitimate children. If the lady reconciles with her biological children in the future, then... your situation will be awkward—"
"Mammy, I know, please stop talking--"
Huang Xianjing felt very uncomfortable.
She didn't like her third and fifth cousins very much and had never thought of marrying them.
I really like my second and fourth cousins, but that's just brother-sister love, not love between men and women.
Huang Xianjing felt very uncomfortable when Nanny Du put her together with her second and fourth cousins.
She hurriedly changed the subject, "Mammy, I'm still young, but Sister Dujuan can't wait any longer. What kind of family do you want to help her find -"
Dujuan is twenty years old now and can get married.
"As long as they have a good character and are capable, families near Kyoto can do it - in this way, the couple can help the young lady with work outside -"
Nanny Du thought for a moment and said.
Huang Xianjing felt sore in her eyes and nose.
"Mammy, Sister Dujuan is such a good person, she needs to find someone who is worthy of her, who likes her, and who she likes too—"
"I'll ask my aunt later. She has many smart and capable people under her, who have signed employment contracts.
"Then let Auntie help Sister Dujuan to look for someone good. If there is one that you like, Sister Dujuan can go and meet him secretly. If you find one that you like, we can decide on it.
"When the time comes, I will definitely prepare a generous dowry for Sister Du Juan..."
Suddenly, Nanny Du knelt down, wiping her tears as she spoke.
"Thank you, young lady. She is so worried about me. It is her blessing to be able to follow her..."
Huang Xianjing was startled and hurriedly pulled Nanny Du up.
"Mammy, it is my blessing to meet you!"
