Chapter 298 Ning Leshu recognizes her relatives, she turns out to be a noble lady from the Marquis's Mansion
Everyone was stunned and looked at Xiao Ying again. Include Madam Xiao's name?
This... is not impossible.
They all saw Madam Xiao's contribution. It can be said that without Madam Xiao, they would not have the happy life they have today.
Not to mention working in the workshop, every household earned dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver from selling potatoes a few days ago, which was unimaginable in the past.
Moreover, Madam Xiao actually holds a high-ranking title, so it is an honor for the village to have her name added to its name.
Mrs. Chen Zhang reacted very quickly and excitedly suggested, "I think it would be better to call it Ruren Village."
"That's great! Once people hear it, they'll know there's a lady in our village!"
"Yeah, this one is good, better than Chenjia Village."
This suggestion was immediately echoed by a group of people, who felt that it had become much more upscale.
Some people are not very happy about it, but dare not speak up.
Ning Yuanze smiled and said, "Ruren Village is good, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate. With Ruren Xiao's contributions, she will definitely be promoted in the future. We can't change it every time we get promoted."
"Will it continue to rise?"
The villagers cried out in surprise, their eyes wide open in disbelief.
Is what the county magistrate said true? Will Madam Xiao's rank rise further? Could she even reach the eighth or seventh rank?
hiss……
If he were to be promoted to the seventh rank, wouldn't that make him the same rank as the county magistrate?
For a moment, many people felt as if they were in a dream and found it incredible.
Many people looked at Xiao Ying in shock. How could Madam Xiao be so powerful? This was definitely the first of its kind in Yue Nation!
In this case, it is indeed inappropriate to call it Ruren Village. Isn't this a low name?
Chen Jie said at the right moment, "Sir, County Magistrate, why don't you let Mrs. Xiao choose one herself?"
The others also nodded repeatedly. Madam Xiao is so capable, she should be allowed to take it herself.
Now, no one objected to changing the village name, and no one objected to using Xiao Ying's name. Instead, they felt honored.
"That's a good suggestion." Ning Yuanze looked at Xiao Ying with a smile: "Mrs. Xiao, please give the village a name."
Xiao Ying smiled warmly: "Thank you all for your kindness. Since that's the case, I will take one."
"Kunpeng spreads its wings and soars into the wind. How about naming it Yingfeng Village after the word 'Yingfeng'?"
Chen Jie's eyes suddenly lit up, and he agreed out loud: "Yingfeng Village, this name is great! It carries Mrs. Xiao's name, and the meaning is very good. I think it should be called Yingfeng Village!"
The others couldn't help but nod their heads. This name was indeed a good one. Wasn't their village heading against the wind?
Ning Yuanze made the final decision: "Okay, then it will be called Yingfeng Village from now on. I will have someone register it."
"Thank you, County Magistrate."
"Great, we'll call it Yingfeng Village from now on."
"This name is so nice. Madam Xiao is really good at naming."
"Our village will definitely rise to the challenge and get better and better in the future!"
The villagers were delighted and cheered loudly in celebration.
Suddenly, Chen Jie said happily, "Tomorrow we will build a memorial archway, engrave the new village name on it, and hang this plaque on it. We will build it at the entrance of the village."
Some villagers laughed and said, "Why wait until tomorrow? Why don't we start working right away?"
"Hahahaha... I think we should hang up a plaque and make other villages envious."
"I can't envy you enough, there is a lady in our village!"
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked, and there was laughter and joy everywhere, which was even more lively than the Chinese New Year.
Little did they know that all this was seen by the people in the carriage.
Ever since the moment he saw Xiao Ying, Ning Leshu couldn't remain calm.
His eyes were fixed on the most eye-catching figure in the crowd, and his eyes were red.
They look alike, very similar, especially her eyes, which are exactly the same as when she was young.
She didn't need any other proof. She was certain that this was her daughter, who had been missing for over thirty years! That was her Yingying!
Seeing her daughter grow up to be so beautiful and outstanding, she felt both sad and proud.
Her Yingying is more elegant and noble than those noble ladies in the capital, with outstanding temperament, like a fairy who is not of this world.
I really don’t know how much suffering Yingying has endured to get to where she is today.
"My cousin is amazing."
Perhaps he could see what she was thinking, Ning Yuanchen said with a smile, with admiration in his eyes.
"Yeah, Yingying is really amazing."
Ning Leshu wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and her smile became even brighter.
"Once Fourth Brother has finished his official duties, my aunt can reunite with my cousin."
"Yeah, I'm afraid Yingying will blame me."
While the two were whispering, Ning Yuanze had already announced that he was done. The crowd immediately dispersed excitedly in twos and threes, still talking on the way.
"Mrs. Xiao, I have something else I want to discuss with you today." Ning Yuanze suddenly said.
Xiao Ying's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at the carriage inconspicuously: "It's my honor. County Magistrate, why don't you come to my house and have a seat?"
"Then I will respectfully obey your command."
Ning Yuanze agreed immediately and went straight to the house with her without returning to the carriage.
The carriage and several yamen runners immediately followed. Although some villagers were curious, they did not take it too seriously. What happened today was enough for them to talk about for half a month.
Xiao Ying seemed to realize something and couldn't help but frown.
When he arrived outside the house, Ning Yuanze suddenly stopped and looked more sincere than ever before.
"Mrs. Xiao, I actually brought someone with me today, someone who is very important to you."
Xiao Ying also stopped, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes, and then looked at the carriage.
Just then, the car curtain was lifted and Ning Yuanchen walked down first.
Then he reached out and helped a dignified and elegant lady down.
The woman looks to be in her early forties, but her actual age should be older than that. Although there are traces of time on her face, her elegance and grace cannot be concealed. It is obvious that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.
His clothes are low-key but luxurious, and his demeanor is graceful. One can tell at a glance that he comes from an extraordinary background.
When she saw the other person's face clearly, Xiao Ying's heart moved. She thought that she already knew the other person's identity.
Even though she was not the original owner of this body, blood ties were so magical that she actually felt a sense of familiarity.
"Yingying..."
Ning Leshu couldn't help but have red eyes again and called out in a low voice.
At that moment, Kang Ruolan, He Changgui, Yulan and others standing behind Xiao Ying all changed their expressions and were horrified.
Even Ling Yun and Xiao Qian in the dark showed astonishment, their eyes wandering back and forth between Xiao Ying and Ning Leshu.
Who is this noble lady? Why does she look so much like the Madam? And why does she even call the Madam by her nickname?
Could it be that there is another story behind the lady’s life?
Then Ning Yuanze introduced: "Mrs. Xiao, this is the wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, surnamed Ning, and she is also my aunt."
"Perhaps, I should call you cousin. Cousin is not actually the daughter of Xiao Qing and He Qiuju, but the biological daughter of Zhenyuan Hou and my aunt."
"Cousin, your true identity is the daughter of the Marquis's family."
