When Madam Qin arrived at Prince Rui's mansion, she never expected that it would be Prince Rui who would greet her at the second gate.
This was also the first time she saw her brother-in-law in such a miserable state.
His eyes were red and swollen, his chin was covered with a layer of blue stubble, and there were blisters at the corners of his mouth from anxiety and anger.
"Brother-in-law." Mrs. Qin stepped forward and bowed, wondering whether this recognition of relatives was successful or not.
But Prince Rui was a prince after all, and seeing him like this, Madam Qin really didn't dare to ask him.
"It's just right that you're here. Go keep your sister company." Prince Rui said in a hoarse voice, "You two sisters should get along better."
He couldn't even control his emotions now, and it was difficult for him to provide any comfort to his wife.
Now when two people are together, they can only shed tears facing each other.
Prince Rui felt that he needed to find a place to relax and lick his inner wounds alone.
But he was worried about leaving his wife alone.
So when I heard that Mrs. Qin had arrived, I immediately felt relieved.
After entrusting his wife to Madam Qin, Prince Rui asked someone to prepare his horse and planned to go out and find a place to relax.
Madam Qin followed the servants to the bedroom of Prince Rui's wife and found that her sister's condition was even more miserable than that of Prince Rui.
A pair of beautiful big eyes were swollen like peaches, and she was muttering something to her personal maid.
Before she could say a few words, tears started falling like beads from a broken string.
The maids and old women in the room knelt on the floor, begging her to stop crying.
"My Lady, it's such a blessing to have found the young master!"
"My Lady, this is something good that we should be happy about!"
No one knew how long they had been trying to persuade her, but it was of no use. They could only watch with bitter faces as Princess Rui cried.
When they found out that Mrs. Qin had arrived, everyone felt like they had found a life-saving straw.
"Madam Qin, please come and help persuade our queen!"
Seeing this, Mrs. Qin finally understood why Prince Rui didn't want to stay at home and just wanted to hide away.
She walked into the room, took the ice handkerchief from the maid, sat opposite Princess Rui, and winked at the servants in the room to leave first.
After everyone in the room had left, Madam Qin handed over the ice handkerchief in her hand and said, "Sister, your eyes are swollen from crying. How are you going to see Qingtian tomorrow?"
Mrs. Qin's words pulled Princess Rui out of her sorrow.
Princess Rui raised her hand to touch her eyes, and found that they were really hot and swollen, and a little stinging when touched.
"Someone, come and get a mirror!" Princess Rui said anxiously.
The servant hurriedly brought a mirror for her to see.
Seeing her eyes so swollen that she could hardly open them in the mirror, Princess Rui exclaimed, "How could this happen?"
Madam Qin quickly put the ice handkerchief on her eyes and said softly, "Sister, the child has been found. Isn't this a great thing? Why are you crying like this?"
The cool feeling on her eyes was very comfortable, and Princess Rui's mood also eased a little.
After a long while, she finally said calmly, "Tell me about your journey to Beijing!"
Of course, Mrs. Qin knew that what her sister wanted to hear was not about her own affairs, but about things related to Qingtian.
“Qingtian is a very well-behaved child, and he is also very smart.
"He Xuan taught her a poem, and not only did she memorize it quickly, but she wouldn't forget it even if I asked her again a few days later..."
Princess Rui listened quietly to her sister talking about everything related to Qingtian in detail.
After racking her brains to tell everyone she knew, Madam Qin couldn't help but add, "The Ye family really treated Qingtian very well. If I hadn't known from the beginning that she wasn't their biological child, I wouldn't have realized she was a child the Ye family had rescued and raised."
Princess Rui took off the handkerchief from her eyes, sighed, and said, "I know."
It’s because the Ye family is so good to Qingtian that she is in such a difficult situation.
Sometimes she couldn't help but think that it would be great if the Ye family treated Qingtian badly, so that she could save Qingtian from them without any psychological burden.
"What are your plans, brother-in-law and I?" Mrs. Qin finally asked.
"Let's get familiar with the child first." Princess Rui's expression softened when she thought of Qingtian. "The child is too young. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it right away."
Having said that, when Princess Rui thought of Qingtian clinging to Mrs. Ye, she felt indescribable sadness and jealousy in her heart.
That was obviously her biological daughter, who should have grown up little by little in her arms, from babbling to toddling.
It should be her that the child relies on and trusts the most.
While Prince Rui and Princess Rui were feeling mixed emotions about their child, Boss Ye and Sister Ye were also being questioned by Mr. Cen.
"So Qingtian is not your biological daughter?
"And now you tell me that she is the daughter of Prince Rui and Princess Rui?"
Mr. Cen is old, and he was overwhelmed by the shock of these two pieces of news. He sat there and was very angry!
He finally caught his breath and turned to ask You Bin who was sitting next to him.
"You also know that Qingtian is not their biological child?"
You Bin nodded and said as a matter of course, "Although I haven't asked about this, they have been married for many years and have no children. Suddenly, this big child appeared. They must have been adopted!"
He was very confused as to why Mr. Cen was so angry, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Dad, do you care about this?
"I'm not your biological child either!"
Elder Cen's face turned pale at You Bin's words. He slammed the table and said, "What I care about is whether my relatives are my own or not? What I care about is such a big thing, and no one told me a word!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye quickly said, "Grandfather, this was my idea. I was afraid that outsiders would say something that would affect the child, so I told my family not to tell anyone that Qingtian was not my biological son.
"And to be honest, after a long time, my husband and I really treated Qingtian as our own daughter, so after we met, we didn't even think about talking about this matter."
Mrs. Ye felt a little guilty as she spoke, as if she had deceived the old man's feelings.
"If you feel uncomfortable, we can move out with the children later..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mr. Cen.
"Why are you moving? Is that the point?
"Tell me first, how did your adopted child suddenly become the daughter of Prince Rui and Princess Rui?"
Mr. Cen was so anxious that he blew his beard and glared.
"I can't do anything about it. What if they insist on taking the child away?"
That is his precious baby whom he cherishes most in his heart!
