Chapter 153: Wandering around outside the door, are you a thief?
When the father and daughter met, they held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes. The scene made people feel sad.
Several people sat in the study and talked for a whole afternoon, and only when Yin Fuzhi came back did the family reunite.
When his sister went missing, Yin Fuzhi was already nine years old. His love for his sister was no less than that of his parents.
Over the years, not only his parents, but he himself had also searched many times and never gave up any clue.
"God helps those who work hard. Now that my sister is back, our family is reunited." Yin Fuzhi was taught by the prime minister and is even more upright and strict than the prime minister. He is usually serious, but when he recognized his sister today, a smile was clearly visible on his face for the first time.
The mother and daughter returned to the Xiangfu, so naturally they had to have dinner there. When the servants were serving the dishes, Yin Miaoyin pulled Liu Mingyue to her side: "Sister, sit next to me."
Liu Mingyue did not refuse and sat down naturally. Yin Miaoyin immediately said, "Sister, don't think that father is kind today. When he catches up with our homework or teaches us later, you will know."
Yin Miaoyin chattered about many interesting things in the mansion, such as how naughty she was and how strict her grandmother and father were.
She also often ran out of the house to play, and if she was caught by her father and grandfather, she had to rely on her mother and grandmother to help her get away with it.
The grandparents and Yin Fuzhi and his wife took great care of Liu Ruyi. The family had endless things to say to each other, and Yin Miaoyin alone was able to make Liu Mingyue dizzy. Why didn't she realize that this girl was so talkative when she was in Ruyi Pavilion before?
Seeing Liu Mingyue looking at her and smiling, Yin Miaoyin handed her a fruit: "Sister, why are you looking at me like that?"
Liu Mingyue took the fruit and took a bite. It was sweet. Liu Mingyue looked at her for a while and said with a smile: "You talk a lot."
After all the food was served, the prime minister asked the servants to leave, and the family sat around the table to eat. What a warm and harmonious scene.
Yin Miaoyin kept picking up food for Liu Mingyue and introducing which chef in the kitchen of the prime minister's mansion made which dish.
Madam Zhen was not in good health, so Yin Fuzhi took good care of his wife at the dinner table. However, Liu Ruyi was not alone. Prime Minister Yin and the old lady almost made a special trip to help her serve the food, and there was always enough food in her bowl.
Liu Mingyue ate whatever Yin Miaoyin picked up for her. She had never eaten so relaxedly and comfortably since she was reborn.
The house outside the city was bought by Liu Mingyue several months ago. It was originally intended for the mother and daughter to settle down so that they no longer had to live under someone else's roof.
Moving to the Xiangfu actually doesn't take much effort, but you only need to bring your underwear and leave all the bulky items in the house. The Xiangfu has everything, so even if you remember to leave something behind, it's very convenient to go back to the house to get it, so you don't have to pack it up specially.
The old lady sent her capable nanny to help Liu Mingyue and her daughter pack up. In just half a day, the two of them moved into the prime minister's residence.
"Your father and I plan to use this birthday banquet to formally introduce you and your daughter to the guests. Your father has announced that his daughter, who had been lost for many years, has now been found. He will introduce her to the guests who come to the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time."
On the first day of living in the prime minister's residence, the old lady was reluctant to part with her daughter, so after dinner she pulled Liu Ruyi into her room to talk.
"I'll follow my father and mother's arrangements." Liu Ruyi was very obedient, and was even more well-behaved and obedient in front of her mother whom she hadn't seen for many years.
The old lady looked at her daughter with complicated eyes, happy that she had grown up to be a beautiful lady, but also sad for the hardships she had endured over the years. Although she had only known her daughter for a short time, the old lady could see that her character was too soft.
Her granddaughter, on the other hand, had a stronger and more resolute character. If not for this, the mother and son would have suffered more.
Prime Minister Yin's birthday banquet is approaching, and the prime minister's residence is already busy. Now that the prime minister and the old lady have found their long-lost daughter, the banquet is even more lively.
When Liu Ruyi was a concubine in the Zhou family, she seldom went out, so no one knew Liu Ruyi except those in the Zhou mansion.
This unexpected thing saved a lot of trouble. Liu Mingyue was able to attend the palace banquet and show her face in front of the ladies.
However, there are so many ways to conceal one's appearance, so Liu Mingyue doesn't have to worry about being recognized. Moreover, she has already planned to heal the scars on her face. Once the scars are gone, no one in the capital will be able to recognize her.
It snowed all day in the capital city. Liu Mingyue paced back and forth in front of the gate of a small house. The snow under her feet made a crunching sound. She had been pacing back and forth in front of the gate for half an incense stick of time.
Half an incense stick is not actually a long time, but because it was winter and there was snow on the ground, her legs were already a little stiff from the cold.
When Liu Mingyue hesitated, the tightly closed door suddenly opened. Bai Ziyu was wearing a thick cloak, with a lot of snow on his hair. He opened the door and said in a sharp tone: "Why are you wandering around outside the door instead of coming in? Are you a thief?"
Hearing that he spoke angrily, Liu Mingyue was a little confused, but she didn't dare to say anything. She stumbled and followed Bai Ziyu into the yard. Bai Ziyu glanced at Liu Mingyue and pulled her into the small room.
There was a stove lit in the small room. Bai Ziyu's residence was not big, but the room had everything it needed, and the charcoal fire was very warm.
"Here." When Liu Mingyue lowered her head, a heater was stuffed into her hands. "Why didn't you come in just now?"
Bai Ziyu crossed his arms and looked at her, causing Liu Mingyue to bury her head even lower: "I was worried that you didn't want to see me."
Liu Mingyue answered truthfully. They didn't have any quarrel the last time they met, but Liu Mingyue did feel guilty.
"The dead cannot be resurrected, but such a thing will not happen again. No matter what you want to do in the future, think about whether the lives of innocent people are involved behind it." Bai Ziyu sighed heavily.
Liu Mingyue nodded repeatedly. She knew very little about what happened on the battlefield and had no idea that Qin Zhuoyan's death would implicate so many soldiers.
But the mistake had been made, and all she could do was to try her best to make amends and take care of the families of those soldiers.
"What are you doing here today? You are not here to apologize to me." Bai Ziyu was very smart and saw through Liu Mingyue's heart. Liu Mingyue sat down with the heater in her arms, looked up at him, and thought that he had guessed it right.
"Some time ago, I learned that my mother was the long-lost youngest daughter of the Prime Minister's residence. My mother has reunited with the Prime Minister's wife. My mother and I will move into the Prime Minister's residence together. In the near future, the Prime Minister will hold a birthday banquet, and the Prime Minister and the old lady will announce our identities at the banquet."
Bai Ziyu poured the wine he had just heated into the glass. When he heard Liu Mingyue mention the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was at a loss for a moment.
He seldom went out these days, and he had only heard about the gossip circulating outside.
He knew that the prime minister's mansion had found their long-lost daughter, but he didn't know that the prime minister's daughter was Liu Mingyue's mother.
