The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

Mingjin told the old man the purpose of his visit.

Princess Fuhua naturally would not have any objection. She was very happy that her granddaughter was willing to talk to her about this. But she was afraid that she kept everything in her heart and had to bear everything by herself.

This is what Princess Fuhua is most worried about.

Fortunately not.

Princess Fuhua was very happy.

"Go and invite Mother Zhou over." Princess Fuhua held Mingjin's hand and spoke to Cuiwei who was standing beside her.

Cuiwei hurriedly responded and went out to give orders.

Mother Zhou came with a puzzled look on her face.

After listening to Mingjin, she was very happy.

Now she is in the Marquis' Mansion, just like an idle person, just taking money and not doing much work. At most, she helps to train the maids who follow the master to work. If the atmosphere in the Marquis' Mansion is good, it would be fine, but now the master and the lady of the Marquis' Mansion are not very good, and the servants under them are also trembling with fear, fearing to be punished.

Mother Zhou was invited back by Princess Fuhua, and no one dared to touch her, but no one likes to work in such an environment. She couldn't help but start planning her own future recently.

She has no children and no hometown, so it doesn't matter where she goes.

Before, other families had contacted her privately, wanting her to go there to teach their young ladies and gentlemen. She had not agreed before, but now she is planning to give it some careful consideration.

Unexpectedly, before she even told the eldest princess about this matter, the princess had already arranged something for her to do.

Mother Zhou was very happy.

She did not refuse. Compared to continuing to stay in the Marquis' Mansion or going to an unfamiliar place to get familiar with the place, she still preferred to follow the princess.

And from what the princess said, several teaching mothers in the Tzu Chi Hall also came from the palace, and it is possible that some of them are her former good sisters.

She wished she could pack her bags and go there to work right now.

After calming down a little, Madam Zhou asked Ming Jin, "When will this servant go?"

Mingjin looked at his grandmother beside him.

Princess Fuhua knew what Mingjin meant. She was asking her whether she should ask Zhou Zhaoru's opinion. If it were in the past, Princess Fuhua would definitely discuss it with Zhou Zhaoru first.

Although it was she who invited Mother Zhou to the Marquis' Mansion.

But Zhou Zhaoru was the mistress of the marquis's mansion after all, and was in charge of all matters big and small in the mansion.

But now, she was exhausted with both her son and her daughter-in-law, and really didn't want to deal with them too much.

Especially recently they brought back the person from Jiangyun Garden.

Princess Fuhua didn't want to meet them even more.

"You go down and pack up first, and when Yanyan comes back, you can go with her."

"I'll send someone to talk to your mother."

The first few words were spoken to Zhou's mother, and the second few words were spoken to Mingjin.

Ming Jin was also very happy that he didn't have to have direct contact with Zhou Zhaoru, so he turned around and smiled at Zhou's mother, "Mom, go pack first. When I get back, I'll ask someone to call you."

Mother Zhou naturally responded with a smile.

She bowed to the two men before leaving.

After she left, Princess Fuhua asked Cuiwei to go to the inner room and take out a box that had been prepared long ago.

"what is this?"

Taking it from his grandmother, Ming Jin asked curiously.

Princess Fuhua smiled and said to her, "Open it and take a look."

After Ming Jin opened it, he found a stack of silver bills and several deeds to farms and shops.

"grandmother?"

She looked up at the old man, her pupils trembling and her tone shocked.

"I was going to give it to you last time, but I was in a hurry at that time. I haven't packed some things yet. I just heard Sister Sheng say that you were doing things for Tzu Chi Hall a few days ago..." Princess Fuhua stroked her granddaughter's head and smiled softly at her. "I wanted her to give it to you. Now that you are here today, you can take it back yourself."

"I do not want."

Ming Jin's eyes were red. He put the box aside, turned around and hugged her waist, and said in a muffled voice: "You have given me enough things. I have money myself, so I don't need these."

"Whether you have money is your business. It was given to you by your grandmother."

Princess Fuhua's tone was unquestionable: "Besides, you are running such a big business now, it's always good to have more money."

“It didn’t cost much, actually.”

Ming Jin said to her in a low voice: "The rent there is not expensive. Besides, I have cooperation with the Ministry of Revenue. They exempted me from taxes and gave me two thousand taels of silver every year."

"Ministry of Revenue?"

Princess Fuhua asked curiously, "What's going on?"

Even Ming Sheng didn't know about this, let alone Princess Fuhua. Ming Jin told the old man about his agreement and negotiations with the Ministry of Revenue.

Princess Fuhua was stunned when she heard this.

She didn't expect that her precious granddaughter had such ability and could even negotiate with others to gain benefits for herself.

She was surprised and happy at the same time. Looking at the cute granddaughter in her arms, she felt deeply moved and thought that her precious granddaughter was really amazing.

She put her arm around Mingjin's shoulders, not knowing what to say for a moment, and could only sigh, "Our Yanyan is really amazing."

"So I really don't need money, grandma doesn't have to give me any." Ming Jin added.

"Tzu Chi Hall will only have a hard time in the beginning, but later I will have people teach them how to make a living, and they can earn money on their own."

Princess Fuhua refused to listen and insisted, "You have to take it. Grandma is old and there is no use for the money. Don't worry, Grandma has arranged everything for your brothers and sisters."

"When you get married in the future, grandma will prepare a grand outfit for you so that you can have a grand wedding."

She said with a smile, she was still dreaming that Mingjin could get married.

During this period, she became increasingly tired and always felt that her time was running out. Therefore, in addition to finding a granddaughter-in-law for her eldest grandson, she was also privately looking for a husband and in-laws for Mingjin.

She was afraid that when she passed away, her precious granddaughter would be left without anyone to rely on, so she wanted to get this done before she died.

"grandmother……"

Ming Jin stammered.

I don’t know whether it’s for the money or for my marriage.

"Keep it safe."

Princess Fuhua placed her big hand on Mingjin's head and said, "Grandmother is not with you now. If you have more money with you, she will feel at ease."

Mingjin couldn't argue with her and had to accept it.

After a while, Aunt Cheng came with people to prepare the meal. Today the kitchen obviously followed Mingjin's taste and made many dishes that Mingjin liked.

Mingjin accompanied the old man for dinner.

Both the grandparents and grandchildren ate a lot, especially Princess Fuhua. With her granddaughter by her side, she ate a lot more than usual.

Finish lunch.

Mingjin was not in a hurry to leave.

It was not until it was getting dark that Ming Jin reluctantly said goodbye to the old man.

"Go."

Princess Fuhua was reluctant to let her go, but she did not keep her. She just smiled and looked at her, as if she was watching her leave.

Mingjin took the box and said goodbye to the old man, then left with Huasui and Yingge.

Aunt Cheng saw them out.

"Aunt, please go back. We can go out by ourselves." Ming Jin asked her to go back and accompany her grandmother.

Aunt Cheng thought about it and didn't insist.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw a figure standing not far away. It was Mother Cui who was beside Zhou Zhaoru.

"Mother Cui is here." She said to Mingjin.

Ming Jin looked over and saw Mother Cui. He hadn't seen Mother Cui for a while, but he knew why she came. Ming Jin obviously fell silent again.

She and Aunt Cheng nodded softly.

Aunt Cheng didn't want to get involved in such things, so she said goodbye to Mingjin first.

Mingjin continued to lead his men forward.

She always felt grateful and fond of Mother Cui, and she called her "Mother Cui" in her usual tone.

“Hey, hey!”

Mother Cui was originally a little embarrassed and uneasy, but when she heard Mingjin calling her like that, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"How is mom these days?" Ming Jin asked the woman as if she was chatting about family matters.

Mother Cui was even more moved: "I am fine, but Princess, are you doing well out there?"

Ming Jin naturally agreed with a smile.

Mother Cui saw that she was still smiling as usual. Although she looked a little thinner, she was full of energy and seemed to be living a good life indeed.

She felt relieved.

"The weather has been changeable recently. You should take care of your health, wear more clothes and stay out of the wind." She kept muttering these concerned words.

Ming Jin listened with a smile.

After Mother Cui finished her instructions, she was silent for a while.

But she was here on orders after all.

Ever since she knew that the princess was coming back today, the lady couldn't sit still. She wanted to go directly to Songcuizhai, but she didn't dare to go there because of the eldest princess, so she kept asking people for news.

This is not.

Knowing that the princess was about to go back, the lady immediately called her over, thinking that she had a good relationship with the princess and could call the princess over.

Deep down, Mother Cui actually hopes that the mother and daughter can reconcile.

She also wanted to tell the princess that the lady really regretted not treating that person well recently... But looking at the princess's face, she really couldn't say these words.

Mingjin also knew her dilemma.

She took the initiative to say to Cui's mother: "Mom, don't say anything. I want to go back. I won't go there anymore."

"Princess..." Mother Cui tried to persuade her to stay with red eyes.

Ming Jin just smiled and said, "Mom, take good care of yourself."

Mother Cui saw that she was determined and knew that she would not go no matter what, so she could only sigh and give up.

"Then be careful on the road."

She didn't say anything else, just lowered her head and asked the person to go over.

Mingjin nodded to her and left with his people.

Mother Cui watched her leave, and then after Mingjin walked away, she wiped her eyes and turned away.

Ming Jin saw Ming Yuandu in the courtyard at the first entrance.

It was already dark at that time. Ming Jin led his men towards the gatehouse. In front of them, Ming Yuandu just came back with his personal attendant Luo Zhong.

When the two met, Ming Yuandu was the first to stop in shock.

Mingjin paused for a moment, but only for a moment, and then she continued to walk forward.

When he arrived in front of Ming Yuandu, Ming Jin knelt down and saluted.

She called him father as usual, but her expression did not show any admiration.

Ming Yuandu also came back to his senses after hearing this voice. He was a little embarrassed, "...Get up." He stretched out his hand to help the person, but before he stretched out his hand, Ming Jin had already stood up by himself.

Ming Yuandu's hand fell into emptiness.

Looking at the girl with her eyes downcast in front of him, he didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, he tried in vain to find a topic: "Come to see your grandmother?"

"Ah."

A cold and indifferent conversation.

Ming Yuandu looked at his daughter in front of him and wanted to say something else. He wanted to ask her if she was okay now, but he felt that he was not qualified to ask.

Thinking of Mingyao, he wanted to explain to her, but before he could say anything, he heard the girl in front of him speak first.

"My daughter is leaving first."

After Ming Jin finished speaking, he bowed and left without waiting for Ming Yuandu to try to persuade him to stay.

Watching Ming Jin turn around and leave without stopping, Ming Yuandu could only close his slightly open mouth again, and his heart inevitably began to fluctuate.

He stood there silently, watching her leave and then gradually disappear into the distance.

I do not know how long it has been.

The figure over there had disappeared from sight, and Ming Yuandu then silently withdrew his gaze.

The autumn wind is bleak.

It seems like winter is coming soon.

Ming Yuandu lowered his eyes, gathered his official robes and walked inside.

He walked towards Zhou Zhaoru's yard.

He knew that Zhou Zhaoru had not been kind to Ming Yao these days, but the person had been brought back and the thing had been done. Some minor fights would be fine, but if they really hurt the person, what good would it be for them?

He wanted to advise Zhou Zhaoru to stop being so petty and just let it go.

I had thought about this when I came here.

But Ming Yuandu didn't expect to meet Ming Jin at home.

Thinking of his daughter, Ming Yuandu's pace gradually slowed down.

The journey that was supposed to take a quarter of an hour took me an unknown amount of time, but I finally reached Zhou Zhaoru's place. However, before I entered, I heard Zhou Zhaoru losing his temper in the house.

Of course it was because Mingjin couldn’t come to see her.

Ming Yuandu frowned when he heard this. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a servant came running over breathlessly, "My Lord."

"what's up?"

Ming Yuandu looked at him and frowned.

The servant handed over the item in his hand: "This is what the princess asked me to give to you before she left."

"Yanyan?"

Ming Yuandu looked surprised, and actually felt excited and happy in his heart.

He quickly reached out to take the thing wrapped in red cloth, opened it and saw that it was the token he gave her when Yanyan came back that day.

When Ming Yuandu saw the token, he was stunned on the spot.

He suddenly remembered that when Yanyan just came back, he was really happy and really felt pity for his daughter.

So he gave her his token, hoping that she would settle down at home.

But what did he do later?

Ming Yuandu's face turned pale in the night.

For the first time, he questioned himself in his heart, did he really do the right thing? Was he really right?
