She was the only one supporting the Hou Mansion with her son. The Hou Mansion was no longer as prosperous as it used to be. She was cautious and took every step carefully.
He finally missed his son's thoughts, and he also missed the fact that he would bring shame to the Hou Mansion because of a woman like that.
Speaking of which, Mrs. Lu hates Bai Huiru even more than her daughter-in-law.
But she had her considerations when she finally compromised and brought the person into the mansion.
Although she cared about the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children, she had to admit that her concubine gave birth to a smart daughter, who was better than the legitimate granddaughter who was raised in the marquis's mansion and spoiled by her mother.
There are no male descendants in the Hou Mansion, so whether the family can continue to prosper in the future depends on these two girls.
"The Hou Mansion doesn't support idlers, especially you. If you can succeed, I will definitely lend you a helping hand. If you can't, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Lu Seyan nodded. She didn’t necessarily have any kind of grandparent-granddaughter relationship with the old lady. They just had their own agenda.
"Grandma, I understand."
"I know you are ambitious. Although your family background is not as good as your sister's, you want to show everyone that people with low family backgrounds can also live a good life. So don't waste your time on these insignificant people and things. Think more about the prince."
Madam Lu naturally also has high hopes for the prince, after all, he has already taken a step forward.
"Don't follow the path of that girl from the Jiang family. Your little cleverness won't be able to save you when the time comes."
Lu Seyan nodded. She really had no interest in the prince, but she couldn't say that. She hadn't established a firm foothold in the Hou Mansion yet, and she didn't have enough ability.
After all, her grandmother's words now determine her marriage.
When Princess Yi Yang saw Xia Zhiliao, she refused to even say a word of blame.
"Why didn't your mother come?"
Xia Zhiliao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Aunt Cui.
Aunt Cui smiled and nodded, "I have already told the princess, and she knows everything."
Princess Yiyang touched Xia Zhiliao's head and gently waved the palm-leaf fan in her hand, "I have thought about it. Even if it is not true, I plan to recognize your mother as my goddaughter."
"ah?"
"Then you will be my granddaughter." said Princess Yi Yang.
Xia Chenshi is neither impatient nor irritable, but calm and reserved, and he does not curry favor with the powerful. He is a down-to-earth person.
But in terms of personality, Xia Zhiliao is more like Yue'er back then.
She could also understand that even if Yue'er had always been raised by her, she might not still have the same personality when she grew up.
Aunt Cui was also very excited. It was her princess who was being saved. This was a good idea. No matter what the result was, Miss Zhiliao would be a relative of the princess.
"Princess……"
"Why, you still don't want to?"
Xia Zhi shook his head, "I'm willing, but you seem to be at a disadvantage."
"Who said that? These days you not only helped me cure my illness, but also made me recall more details about Yue'er. How could I suffer any loss? This huge princess mansion can't make me happy, but you are different."
"Your mother won't object, will she?"
Xia Zhi shook his head. "My mother probably wouldn't. She would be terrified."
"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will go to the palace and talk to the Queen Mother."
"Princess, don't be anxious." Xia Zhiliao said.
"Girl, aren't you greedy for money? Become my granddaughter, and all the money in this huge princess mansion will be yours. Why aren't you in a hurry?"
Xia Zhiliao smiled mysteriously, "Wait a little longer."
"Miss Zhiliao, this is a good thing."
"I know, Madam Cui, but I believe the princess can't escape. Her words are her bond, hehe."
She just wanted to wait for her mother's sachet to be embroidered to see if there would be any progress.
…
"The embroidery is done!" Xia Chen let out a long sigh and looked at her work. She didn't know whether it would please the princess, but she was very satisfied.
Xia Zhiliao came over after hearing the noise, and seeing his mother smiling, he also smiled happily, "It's really beautiful."
"It's no use just saying it looks good. The princess has to like it."
"That's easy. I'll just take you to see her."
"Now?" asked Xia Chen.
"Yes, we will set off tomorrow, and I will wait for you to finish embroidering it."
Xia Chen nodded. She had no other thoughts. She just wanted to thank the princess for her love for her daughter. Secondly, it was like putting a sentence to her journey of finding her relatives. She would never mention this matter again, give up this idea, and make a good living.
But when the mother and daughter happily arrived at the princess's mansion, they found that the entrance to the mansion was very lively.
When the mother and daughter got off the car, they saw a woman about the same age as Xia Chen crying there, saying that she wanted to see her mother.
The doorman, Old Feng, frowned and said, "This is the princess's residence. Look carefully. Let's go quickly. Your mother is not here."
The woman wiped her tears and said, "The princess is my mother."
Xia Zhiliao frowned. Is there such a plot in the novel?
"The princess is your mother?" Old Feng was dumbfounded. Didn't the little princess die long ago?
"Don't dare to say such nonsense." Old Feng said fearfully.
"Where's the princess?"
Xia Zhiliao asked, why hasn’t the princess come out despite all the commotion? Is she sick?
That's what she was worried about.
"The princess and Madam Cui have gone to the palace and haven't come back yet. If you make trouble again, I will have people treat you rudely."
"How dare you! My mother is Princess Yi Yang. How dare you be rude to me? Don't you want to live?" the woman shouted.
"You said the princess is your mother?" Xia Zhiliao asked.
"Who are you?"
"She...she is the cicada girl who treats the princess." Old Feng said angrily.
"Why would such a young child need to see a doctor? My mother will be cured when she sees me."
Although it was the princess's residence, many people on the street still looked over.
And they were whispering about what was going on with this woman.
Xia Chen was also a little stunned, "I see, why don't we go back first."
Xia Zhiliao shook her head, "Mom, we can't leave."
Even if her mother was not the princess's daughter, she still wanted to see where this woman came from.
We can’t let the princess be deceived. In the novel, the princess always thought her daughter was dead and never doubted it.
It was because of her appearance that this line was brought out, but this woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere, I'm afraid things are not simple.
"Grandpa Feng, quickly send someone to the palace to invite the princess back."
Xia Zhiliao said.
Old Feng nodded and asked the younger servant to go.
"I know. You guys go in and wait."
"Wait, they can all go in, why can't I? I am my mother's most beloved daughter, and she only has me as her daughter."
Xia Zhiliao and Lao Feng looked at each other and asked, "Then do you have any evidence?"
"Of course I have evidence," the woman said proudly, "but why should I tell you? Who do you think you are?"
Seeing that the woman seemed confident, Xia Zhiliao was afraid that she would really come up with something.
"Then why did you come to see the princess now?"
