Mother Zhou didn't expect to be asked by the girl.
She had always been decisive, but now she looked hesitant and began to stammer, not knowing how to start the conversation.
But no matter how much hesitation you have, you still have to speak up.
It has been delayed until now. In a few days, we will reach the capital.
Should I wait until the girl returns to the mansion before telling her? If that happens, how can the girl bear it? It would be better to tell the girl first while there is still some time. If something really happens, she can rest here for a few more days.
Anyway, it only takes a few days to leave the capital, so delaying for a few days won’t be a big problem.
Mother Zhou thought about this and finally stopped hesitating and started talking to her: "Miss, during the ten years you were away, some things happened in the mansion..."
She spoke to Mingjin as slowly as possible and in soft words.
After that, she saw the girl leaning on the pillow, looking at her leisurely, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Mother Zhou swallowed hard again before she said to the girl, "Ten years ago, after you disappeared, Madam Hou was so sad that she developed hysteria..."
"At that time, a girl came to the mansion, and she mistook her for you. After that, the mansion searched for you for a few years, but still had no news of you. Madam's hysteria was also getting better and worse, so the Marquis Zuo decided to let the girl... replace you first."
Mother Zhou spoke the last few words with great difficulty.
She clasped her hands tightly together, and after she finished speaking, she didn't dare to look directly into those bright eyes and simply lowered her head.
She couldn't imagine how the girl would react after knowing this. She would definitely not be able to accept it.
No one can accept it.
If it were her, knowing that she had been missing for ten years and her family mistook her for someone else, and that she was suffering outside while the person who replaced her was enjoying all the wealth and glory at home... I'm afraid she would even want to die!
die--
Mother Zhou suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
She was too worried about the girl in front of her to think clearly and do something stupid. She held her hands and said, "Don't worry. The Marquis and his wife know about your existence. They will definitely treat you well in the future."
"And the old lady, in the past ten years, she has never given up looking for you, and has been praying to the gods for your blessing. The mansion has already sent a letter to the old lady, and you will be able to see her soon!"
She spoke very quickly, obviously terribly afraid something might happen to her.
Ming Jin didn't feel anything after hearing what she said before, but now that he felt Zhou's mother's nervousness, his heart felt a little warm.
"Don't worry, mom. I'm fine."
Ming Jin's tone was gentle and Mother Zhou was startled. She subconsciously didn't believe it at first, but when she looked at his expression, there was indeed nothing unusual.
But this look made her even more surprised.
She obviously didn't expect the girl to be so calm, so calm that it seemed as if she had known about this from the beginning.
"You... knew it earlier?"
Although she thought it was impossible, Mother Zhou still couldn't help but ask this question.
Could it be that in the past ten years, the girl had known that there was an extra person in the mansion? But thinking of the letter that was sent home before, she felt that something was wrong.
She looked doubtful.
Mingjin had known this for a long time, but that was in his previous life.
Speaking of which, Mother Zhou really loved her, and what she said earlier was also said according to her mood.
He is nothing like the person Mingyao sent to her in her previous life.
What did that person say at that time? Ming Jin recalled.
"Miss, you don't know that since you left, Madam has been hysterical. If Sixth Miss hadn't appeared at the right time, I'm afraid Madam would have passed away long ago."
"These years, it was the Sixth Miss who took care of Madam inside and out, and that’s why her condition got better."
All her words were about how filial and useful Ming Yao was, how she was Ming's mother and the Ming family's savior. If she was disrespectful to Ming Yao when she returned, she would be disregarding Ming Yao's life-saving grace.
Completely ignoring the fact that she was the Sixth Girl, the one who had suffered for ten years.
So after hearing that, she felt aggrieved and angry, but she didn't know what to say. The depression and anxiety stayed in her heart, and she was sick for two days.
After returning, even if he was unhappy, he couldn't say anything wrong with Ming Yao.
"I don't know, but I have a rough guess." Ming Jin said to Mother Zhou in a gentle voice.
Under Mother Zhou's puzzled and surprised gaze, she continued, "Ever since we met at Yuan's house and you called me Miss Jin, I realized something was wrong."
"I am the sixth child in my family. I had a name when I was a child, but you all just called me Miss Jin all the way here. I guessed that something must have happened in the mansion."
"girl……"
Mother Zhou's face turned pale. She obviously didn't expect the girl to be so smart. She could tell something was wrong just from the name. She said in a hoarse voice, "Then why didn't you ask?"
"What's the question?"
Ming Jin smiled, as if he didn't take it to heart, and looked away, out the window.
There are rows of buildings on the opposite side, and various ribbons and flags are floating in the air. Further away, there are endless blue sky and white clouds.
The white clouds are floating slowly.
When Mingjin was a child, he stayed in Xiuli Building, and his favorite thing to do was to look up at the sky.
Look at the blue sky and white clouds, and watch the stars move.
It was as if she was under the same sky with her family. Thinking that they might be thinking about her just like she was, she had the courage to continue living well based on this thought.
But later, trapped by hatred, resentment, and unwillingness, she had forgotten the last time she looked up at the sky so calmly.
"Are you asking about that person, or what the Marquis's Mansion plans to do with her?"
"Since you are so hesitant and have only spoken now, I can imagine that the Marquis' Mansion has not come up with a good solution yet."
"If that's the case, why should I ask? Even if I ask, how can you answer?"
She no longer cared.
Since the Ming family regards that woman as a treasure, let her continue to be their treasure.
"girl……"
Mother Zhou’s voice was almost hoarse and her eyes were gradually turning red.
Ming Jin also knew that she had been shocked enough today, and she also knew that no matter how much she said she didn't care, she would not believe it.
She simply didn't say anything more.
"Mom, go and have some rest. I also want to rest for a while alone." Ming Jin turned around and said to Mother Zhou with a smile.
But when Zhou's mother saw the smile on her face, she felt so sad that she wanted to cry.
She managed to hold back her tears in front of Mingjin. She forced a smile and said, "Then you should have a good rest. I will come to see you again when it's time for dinner."
Ming Jin nodded, then turned around to look at the scenery outside the window.
Mother Zhou looked at her from behind, picked up the tray on the coffee table, and walked to the door. She looked back again. She opened her mouth to say something, but could not say anything. She could only leave with a pale face.
As soon as I walked downstairs, another group of people surrounded me.
"Mother Zhou, how is it, did you say it?"
"How is the girl feeling? Do you want to see a doctor?"
"I also brought some heart-saving pills. Would you like to give one to the girl first?"
……
All talking.
Mother Zhou was surrounded by a group of people and her ears began to buzz.
She was so annoyed that she called for a stop. When the noisy voices gradually faded away, Mother Zhou spoke again: "The girl already knew it."
I watched a group of people around me stare with their eyes wide open in shock, and one of the women was obviously the most shocked.
Mother Zhou glanced upstairs again, and after a long silence, she hesitantly said, "...the girl looks fine."
"Let's do this for now. Let the girl be alone and don't disturb her." Mother Zhou said and went to the kitchen, leaving a group of women with dumbfounded eyes.
Ming Jin didn't know what people were talking about or what they were thinking, and she was too lazy to know.
She just picked up the book again.
But after reading only a few pages, she felt a little sleepy.
Not wanting to get up, she simply covered her face with the book in her hand, and gently tapped the fingers of her other hand, as if she was following the music in her heart and beating the beat. Then she lay on the Xiangfei couch, coaxed by herself, and fell asleep little by little.
She didn't know someone was watching her.
Qing Xin was sitting on the rooftop, holding a booklet in his hand, which contained what he had seen today. There were only a few sentences on it, saying that the Anyuan Marquisate had already told Miss Ming about this matter, and also about Miss Ming's attitude after knowing about it.
I thought about it.
Qing Xin felt that these few words might not be enough to summarize the situation, so he simply lifted the tiles and drew a small portrait of Ming Jin at this moment, to show that the girl was in a good mood, had not collapsed, and was not crying.
After finishing the painting, Qing Xin nodded with great satisfaction.
He quietly covered the tiles, turned around and hung the note and the small statue on the pigeon's feet, patted its butt, and told it to go find its master.
