The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Sure enough, Xue Zhiyi’s familiarity was not an illusion.

Huo Wuyou did indeed silently take a half step forward, staggered his body with Xue Zhiyi, and blocked her slightly behind him, and then asked the woman cautiously: "Who are you?"

The woman asked him in a daze: "Do you know anyone from the Xue family?"

"Tell me who you are first." Huo Wuyou asked.

The woman's eyes turned red, and she said anxiously, "My name is Su Mian, and I'm from the Fu family!"

"From the Fu family?" Xue Zhiyi thought for a moment and said, "Are you Aunt Su?"

Fu Rongxin's nominal biological mother is Fu Wei's concubine Aunt Su.

No wonder she felt familiar with her. When she was young, she went back to the Fu family with Fu Ling. It was at that time that she met Aunt Su.

But Linzhou is not close to Huajing, how could Aunt Su find Huajing alone?

Seeing that Xue Zhiyi knew her, Aunt Su became even more excited. She knelt down tremblingly and reached out to pull Xue Zhiyi.

Huo Wuyou stood in front of her, separating the two of them.

Seeing this, Aunt Su hurriedly explained: "I just want to know what happened to Rong Xin. If you know where the rest of the Xue family is, please tell me, please!"

Huo Wuyou turned around and looked at her: "What are you going to do?"

After thinking for a while, Xue Zhiyi said, "Let's find a place to talk first."

Xue Zhiyi didn't want to take her to Xue Runing's place, so he just found a private room in the teahouse and sat down with Aunt Su.

Arriving at the teahouse, Aunt Su looked at Xue Zhiyi eagerly and said, "I only heard that there are still people from the Xue family living in that alley, so I went there to take a look. If you know them, can you let me meet them?"

Xue Zhiyi simply took off her veil and said, "Aunt Su, do you still remember me? I am Xue Zhiyi."

Instantly, Aunt Su opened her eyes wide: "Third Miss...it's you!"

She looked at Xue Zhiyi, her eyes trembling: "What happened to Rong Xin? Why do people say she killed someone? Where is she now?"

Xue Zhiyi thought about it and decided to conceal Fu Rongxin's whereabouts: "She did commit murder and has been strangled."

Aunt Su was stunned. The last bit of hope in her eyes was shattered. Her lips trembled and she covered her face and cried uncontrollably.

Xue Zhiyi didn't say anything, just waited for her to finish crying.

With her red and swollen eyes, Aunt Su looked at Xue Zhiyi, her voice still a little hoarse: "I begged the master to save her, but why did the master say that Rongxin is not the daughter of the Fu family? They all said that you and Rongxin were mistakenly born. What's going on? Is Rongxin really not my child?"

Xue Zhiyi just said truthfully: "Fu Rongxin is indeed Fu Ling's daughter. Xue Zhentong, Fu Ling, and Fu Wei personally planned the exchange to help Fu Rongxin escape disaster."

Aunt Su's eyes flashed: "Then you..."

"I'm not your child either." Xue Zhiyi said.

Aunt Su's mouth moved slightly, but she said nothing.

Xue Zhiyi said: "Although Fu Ling gave you her daughter in exchange, I was also stolen by her from somewhere else because my fate is suitable for Fu Rongxin to ward off disaster. As for where your biological child went, I don't know."

Aunt Su's eyelashes trembled, and she covered her chest with her hands: "Does Rong Xin know about this?"

Xue Zhiyi hummed: "She has known since she was a child that she is the child of Xue Zhentong and Fu Ling."

In an instant, Aunt Su burst into tears. She clutched the collar of her clothes around her chest, as if something was drilling inside, making her feel like she was dying.

"Back then..."

She seemed unable to speak in pain.

"When I gave birth, my master told me that I gave birth to a weak daughter. Even if I treated her, she might not be cured. The Fu family does not lack a weak concubine's daughter..."

Her voice choked with sobs: "He obviously has a huge fortune, why doesn't he want his own daughter? I don't understand! I knelt down and begged him, but he still took my child away!"

At this point, Aunt Su had already burst into tears.

"I didn't expect that half a month later, the master suddenly brought the child back, saying that the child was lucky and had been saved by the doctor, and asked me to take good care of him. I didn't think much about it at the time..."

She cried until she was hoarse: "I thought Rongxin was alienated from me because her status as a concubine's daughter dragged her down. I have been feeling guilty for so many years... I treated her as my own daughter and gave her everything for so many years! They all lied to me! They lied to me and made me suffer so much!"

She desperately asked, "Where on earth did my child go?!"

Xue Zhiyi listened and felt very upset.

How many people have they killed for this so-called Phoenix life?

Xue Zhiyi said nothing and poured her a cup of tea. Aunt Su was tired of crying, so she took the steaming hot tea and stared at the tea in silence with her eyes wide open.

After an unknown amount of time, Aunt Su finally looked at Xue Zhiyi again: "Third Miss."

Her voice was terribly hoarse.

"The Fu family locked me up, and I ran away secretly. They will definitely catch me back. Please don't tell them that I saw you today."

Xue Zhiyi nodded: "We won't tell anyone."

"Thank you..." Her voice was full of fatigue. "If my child were still alive, he would be the same age as you."

She smiled bitterly: "But I know that she probably died soon after giving birth, otherwise how could she make room for Fu Rongxin?"

Xue Zhiyi looked reluctant and asked her, "What are your plans for the future, Aunt Su?"

Aunt Su just looked out the window, stunned for a moment, with an unclear look in her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"do not know."

She said, "I used to live in confusion, hoping that my daughter would have a good ending. Now that I live in clarity, I don't know what else I can hope for."

After that, she stood up and bowed to Xue Zhiyi: "Miss San, I hope you can find a true relative who is not like me."

Xue Zhiyi stood up and returned her greeting: "Thank you for your good words."

After Aunt Su left, Xue Zhiyi was still feeling a little depressed. She didn't know whether her relatives were still alive, and whether she could really find them.

Huo Wuyou asked her, "Do you think Aunt Su will just let it go?"

After thinking for a while, she said, "It's hard to say. After all, people have to find something to keep themselves alive."

Thinking of something, she asked, "But how did she find Huajing from Linzhou alone? From what she just said, it seems that the Fu family is also in Huajing?"

Huo Wuyou said: "I was just about to tell you about this."

Before meeting Aunt Su, Huo Wuyou seemed to be about to talk about something about the Fu family.

He only said: "After losing the Ministry of Revenue, Gu Shichong needs a new tool to make money. Without the protection of the Xue family, the Fu family naturally needs to find a new backer."

Xue Zhiyi sneered: "So they colluded with each other and hit it off immediately."

"That's right." He said, "Under Gu Shichong's arrangement, the Fu family is now an imperial merchant, and is considered a half-official family. A few days ago, the whole family was ordered to move to Huajing."

He smiled and shook his head: "Without the Xue family that he used to rely on, Fu Wei has risen step by step. Madam Fu has been busy finding marriages for her children recently. It's a time of joy for the whole family. No wonder they don't care about Aunt Su anymore, so she ran away on her own."
