Chapter 15 Is this my real mother?

At the end of April, the heat gradually rose, and the green leaves on the branches covered the golden light of the scorching sun. The flowers fell all over, and the twisted branches were silent.

Xue Mei looked outside through the bead curtain of the carriage.

This time the maid who followed her was Xiuzhu, not Hongluan.

Xiuzhu has a slender figure and a long face, and has a kind of taciturn ability, not as whispering as Hongluan.

She didn't talk much along the way, and the carriage went directly to Zhaiyuxuan.

Xiuzhu got out of the car first, put down the footstool, and then helped Xue Mei get out of the car.

Xue Mei's movements were light and flexible, and she was holding her cat in her arms and jumped out of the carriage.

The two entered Zhaiyuxuan.

This time, the guy warmly received her and took her to the side room directly.

The coachman saw it and silently recorded it, but he didn't know what Xue Mei went in to do.

Half an hour later, Xue Mei came out, and did not hold the jewelry box in her hand, and got back on the carriage.

"Go home." she ordered.

The coachman's lane is, and he drove the carriage back.

When he returned home, the coachman reported the matter to the third lady's maid.

"... The young lady went to Zhaiyuxuan, and the people there were extremely attentive. However, the young lady did not buy jewelry. She went in empty hands and then came out empty hands." The maid told the third wife the coachman's words again.

The third lady heard this and sneered.

"This time she fooled her." said the third lady, "I'm afraid I can't be kind to the old lady."

Sure enough, Xue Mei was called to Yutangyuan the next day.

The old lady didn't speak in person, and the old mother beside her asked Xue Mei: "The eldest lady said she had bought the plaster for the old lady, why didn't she deliver it yet?"

Xue Mei was surprised: "When did I say such things?"

Then, she seemed to have thought about something and smiled, "I went to Pick Yuxuan yesterday. Did my grandmother misunderstand it? I went to Pick Yuxuan, not to buy things.

It is not suitable for granddaughter to listen to grandmother’s words. If a granddaughter is not good for a daughter who has not left home, he will give her so much money. If she gives her grandmother and asks her to bear the reputation of being greedy for money from her granddaughter, wouldn’t she betray her grandmother?

Therefore, the granddaughter deposited the money in Zhaiyuxuan and asked them to give their granddaughter a monthly profit for them for a year. A year later, the granddaughter got married and went to Zhaiyuxuan to use it. The capital and profit for the granddaughter can still make some money.

In this way, everyone will feel at ease, wouldn’t it be great?” Xue Mei said with a smile, looking at the old lady.

The old lady suddenly blocked her chest in one breath.

She can't find Xue Mei's fault now. If she insists on beating her and spreading it, she still doesn't know how much gossip she has caused to the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.

Yesterday she really misunderstood Xue Mei and thought that the girl was going to give her a sapphire mask.

It was not until this moment that the old lady realized that she had been put on by Xue Mei.

She thought of Xue Mei in the past, her eyes dodging and her words were clumsy. When the old lady saw her like that, she felt that the temperament of the Miss Wuhou Mansion was very disliked.

Now that I think about it, Xue Mei is better than that.

Now this shrew-like woman is about to make the old lady angry.

The second lady Xue Yutan provoked her, but she made the old lady angry for nothing. She and the old lady got nothing.

They didn't know whether Xue Mei's money was given to Zhai Yuxuan, and they couldn't search her room anyway.

This matter has also spread.

The people went to the spotlight in private and did not dare to arrange the old lady, so they said that the second lady wanted the eldest lady's money, but they made a big joke.

Everyone has been talking about the eldest lady’s gossip. Now the feng shui has changed, and finally the second lady has arrived.

When Xue Mei's maids heard about it, they all looked proud.

"Miss, did you really give your money to Zhai Yuxuan?" Hongluan asked Xue Mei directly with a quick mouth.

Xue Mei shook her head: "Of course not. I put it on myself, but after saying this, they would not have any bad thoughts again."

Hongluan: "..."

The lady has become so smart.

Dai's mother was worried, but she was not very relieved: "Miss, the old lady is your grandmother. If you repeatedly find fault, it will be very troublesome. Miss, you are not married yet. She is tampering with your marriage, and you are the one who suffers from it."

Xue Mei thought about it and thought that Dai's mother's words were reasonable.

"Isn't it better to find a way to leave the Hou Mansion in the future and live alone?" Xue Mei smiled, "It's okay."

“How do you live alone?”

"I ask Your Majesty to grant me a princess, preferably a princess with a fief, so that I can open a mansion by myself." Xue Mei said.

Everyone: "..."

Did the young lady lose her heart and go crazy after she got some money?

How could the princess be so easy to be granted? Unless it was her father and brother who made great contributions.

If she wants to have a fiefdom, her father and brother need to sacrifice her life for the country, and her whole family will die, leaving her alone.

Xue Mei's father was a teacher at the Imperial College, so it was difficult to have the chance to make meritorious contributions; her brother, who had one leg broken and was lying in bed all day long, was a useless person, and he had no chance.

Therefore, it is impossible for her to become a princess to reach the sky.

Mother Dai and the maids were shocked by her tone and felt that the eldest lady was still unreliable.

The cat in her arms glanced at her and licked the back of her hand.

Xue Mei was happy when she saw it and touched its head: "A Chou also wants to be a cat in the princess's mansion? Don't worry, I'll earn you the title of princess for you."

Everyone: "..."

Hongluan said directly what everyone wanted to say but didn't dare to say: "Miss, you have not gotten married yet, so you have called a cat as your son all day long. When others hear it, they are afraid they will talk gossip."

"I won't say anything outside anymore, just in our room." Xue Mei said, "You keep it secret for me."

Several people sighed.

The young lady’s reliability is temporary, and she shouldn’t have had too much hope for her.

The money matter has been calm for the time being.

Xue Mei didn't ask if the Duke Zhong wanted monthly money, but if the third wife was there, would she give it to her or not.

Fortunately, after this, the old lady couldn't deduct her monthly money anymore, and she would still give it to her every month normally. This is a story later.

The weather is getting warmer day by day, and the masters of Yongning Marquis' Mansion are going to make summer shirts.

Xue Mei looked at her clothes and found that the Hou Mansion would not treat her the eldest lady unfairly in public. After all, she was the face of the Hou Mansion when she went out.

She doesn't need to worry about her clothes.

On the first day of May, Dai's mother reminded Xue Mei: "Miss, it's time to pay my respects to her wife again."

Only then did Xue Mei remember that she had a biological mother.

There is a reason why wealthy families have weak family affection. Xue Mei can't see her own father all day long, nor can she see her own mother. She is always with her wet nurse and maids.

I can't even meet, so how deep is there?

After Xue Mei's elder brother was injured, her mother chanted Buddha's name all day long, and the housework had been handed over to the third wife, so she ignored it.

I heard that her dowry was divided after being handed by the third wife and the old wife, and had become the private property of the Xue family and the third wife.

Even so, Xue Mei's biological mother did not come forward and allowed her property to be taken away by her in-laws.

She didn't even leave any of her biological daughter.

When Xue Mei thought of this, she was a little confused: "Is this my real mother?"
