Chapter 150 Too Similar
"Thirty-five years old, that's right." The old lady was so excited that her breathing became rapid and she quickly covered her chest.
"Where is your mother now? Could you please come and see her, Mr. Liu? Your mother might be the long-lost daughter of my aunt. I have been looking for her for many years, and now, I finally have some news about her."
The prime minister and his wife did not have many children, so because their daughter was the youngest child, the couple loved her very much.
Unexpectedly, the daughter went missing when she was still young and the couple never heard of her again.
Over the years, the couple shed tears whenever they talked about their daughter who had no news from them. Now, their daughter is finally coming back, which is great news.
The old lady was already in poor health, and her face began to turn pale with excitement. Zhen Shi saw that something was wrong and hurried forward to comfort the old lady.
"Mother, please be calm. You may be happy about the news about your sister-in-law, but don't get too excited and hurt your body." Zhen patted the old lady's back, but then she thought, if it were her own daughter, she would do the same.
Yin Miaoyin was struck by lightning and was still in shock. She looked at Liu Mingyue and then at her grandmother.
Could this person really be her cousin? In recent years, her mother and father had few children. Although her grandfather was strict with her, he also treated her like a treasure. If her aunt could really be found, I think her grandmother and grandfather would be able to get better.
"How can you be sure that my mother is your daughter based on just a jade pendant? Maybe there are jade pendants with similar styles."
Liu Mingyue was still acting tirelessly. Now that she had started acting, she had to perform the whole play, otherwise it would arouse suspicion.
"Mr. Liu has many doubts. Just invite your mother to meet with grandmother and they will be solved. The Prime Minister's Mansion is not a place where people are eaten. Even if it is a mistake, we will not do anything to your mother."
Seeing that her grandmother was so eager to see her aunt, Yin Miaoyin also became a little anxious.
"Miaoyin, don't be rude to Young Master Liu." Madam Zhen persuaded the anxious Yin Miaoyin, secretly sighing at the cruel fate. She thought she had finally found a husband who suited her daughter's personality, but she didn't expect it to affect the whole family.
"Young lady is right. I was worrying too much. Uncle Liao, please go to the house and ask my mother to come over. Tell her that the old lady wants to see her." Liu Mingyue did not hesitate too much and immediately ordered her followers to go back and bring the person over.
The attendant listened to their entire conversation and nodded in a daze, but he was quick and quick and immediately drove back to ask the lady to come over.
The old lady was excited and nervous at the moment. She held Liu Mingyue's hand affectionately and pulled her to ask about her mother.
"What's your mother's name now and what does she look like?" The old lady wanted to ask many questions about her mother, but she was worried that she would ask too many questions and Liu Mingyue would not be able to answer them all.
"My mother's surname is Liu, and her given name is Ruyi. My mother's eyebrows and eyes are actually somewhat similar to those of the old lady."
Speaking of her mother, Liu Mingyue's expression softened and she was no longer as defensive as before.
"Mother, you are the most gentle person in the world, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes like stars. As a woman... and a man, I have never seen a woman more beautiful than mother. Especially when mother smiles, she is truly like the goddess of Luo River."
Liu Mingyue spoke well of her mother in every way and praised Liu Ruyi to the point that she was the best in the world.
However, these words are not exaggerations. Liu Ruyi is indeed born with a beautiful appearance.
Without a beautiful mother, there would be no daughter like Liu Mingyue who is as beautiful as a flower. Liu Mingyue described Liu Ruyi's facial features in more words, and also talked about some subtle actions of her mother in daily life.
"What does your mother like in her daily life?" The old lady was interested in everything related to Liu Ruyi.
"Mother likes to play the zither, and she is quite talented in the art. Although she has never learned from a famous teacher, the sound of her playing is rare in the world. If mother is willing, the old lady will be able to hear it with her own ears in the future."
Liu Mingyue remembered that Yin Miaoyin had played the piano at the previous palace banquet, so she specifically mentioned the fact that Liu Ruyi could play the piano.
As Liu Mingyue expected, the old lady was delighted to learn that her daughter was proficient in playing the piano.
The old lady and Prime Minister Yin both came from scholarly families, and they believed that their daughter must also be gifted. Her precious daughter, when she grew up, would surely be as beautiful as a flower and quite talented.
Uncle Liao went out of the city to invite Liu Ruyi. She didn't expect that the opportunity to meet her family would come so soon.
The maid who served her helped her choose a suitable dress, combed her hair meticulously, and looked at herself in front of the dressing mirror several times to make sure everything was correct before getting into the carriage.
"Aunt Wang, I'm a little nervous." Liu Ruyi sat straight like a sculpture in the carriage, her whole body tense. She was not ready to meet her parents yet.
At this moment, she was feeling both excited and nervous. After many years, she was finally able to find her relatives, but she was not sure whether her parents had really been worried about her all these years, and how they would feel when they saw a daughter they could not recognize.
"Madam, rest assured. Isn't Miss already waiting for you in the Prime Minister's Residence? To put it another way, Miss is here for everything. You have waited for so many years, and now you can finally find your roots. You should be happy about it."
Nanny was the person who served Liu Ruyi after she was picked up. She was very reliable and trustworthy.
Liu Ruyi pursed her lips and nodded slightly. Her daughter had told her before that it wouldn't be long before she would meet the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion. But this was too fast and she couldn't remain calm.
Liu Ruyi was in a state of confusion along the way, but when she followed the housekeeper who led the way into the prime minister's residence, she gradually calmed down.
As soon as she entered the flower hall, Liu Ruyi caught a glimpse of the old lady's daughter dressed as a man standing beside her. Liu Ruyi calmed down and bowed: "Liu Ruyi has seen the old lady, the lady, and the young lady."
She was polite and graceful in her every move, like a girl who was carefully educated in a prominent family, without any petty-mindedness at all.
"No need to be so polite. Come, raise your head and let me see you." The old lady suppressed her inner excitement, fearing that her excessive enthusiasm would scare people.
Liu Ruyi slowly raised her head as the old lady had instructed. The moment she saw her face clearly, the old lady sat in the official hat chair in shock, not coming back to her senses for a long time.
Even Madam Zhen and Yin Miaoyin, who were sitting below, were so surprised that they were speechless after seeing Liu Ruyi's face clearly.
If Liu Mingyue looks two or three points like the old lady when she was young, then Liu Ruyi looks seven points like her!
So similar!
Liu Ruyi stood in the hall. Her appearance and temperament were exactly the same as the portrait that Prime Minister Yin had painted for his wife when she was young. Especially her bright eyes, which were incredibly beautiful.
