The King of Qi did not continue to speak, but looked at Xu Wanqing with a smile.
Xu Wanqing didn't understand what King Qi meant for a moment. Could it be that he saw something?
When Zhao Yaru saw King Qi staring at her daughter, she suddenly became very nervous. If King Qi took a fancy to her, she would be in trouble.
Just as he was about to say something, Master Shen said with an unhappy look on his face, "Okay, stop hiding it. Although I have come down from the court, I should not be fooled by a fake calligraphy."
Hearing this, Zhao Yaru and Xu Wanqing were struck by lightning. It turned out that the fake goods they were talking about were given by them.
"Impossible, I didn't send a fake one."
Xu Wanqing refuted without thinking.
"Miss Xu, originally, I should have refrained from arguing with you out of your good intentions. But since you insist that this is the original, please come forward and take a closer look."
Xu Wanqing didn't believe that what she bought was a fake, so she straightened her back and walked over.
When she saw the first word, she was stunned.
It’s different, different from the one she bought.
When she bought it, she looked at it carefully and it didn't look like this at all.
Xu Wanqing's mind was in turmoil. She tried hard to recall what happened after she bought it, until she looked at Zhao Yaru.
"No, no, no, it wasn't my mother who changed it."
Zhao Yaru had already known from Xu Wanqing's expression that the calligraphy was fake. Now, her daughter's suspicious look made her feel creepy.
Xu Wanqing looked at Zhao Yaru's expression and realized that her mother had no reason to switch the babies.
"Wanyan, come and sit down."
Old Madam Shen waved to Xu Wanyan, who nodded gently and walked over to sit beside her.
"You are so thoughtful this time, kid. The last time I saw this jade pot was more than 30 years ago."
As she spoke, she took Xu Wanyan's hand.
This scene made Xu Wanqing and her daughter's eyes blaze with fire.
"Old Madam, do you recognize this jade pot?"
Old Madam Shen nodded, and her thoughts drifted far away.
"At that time, probably when your mother was born, a merchant from the Western Regions gave your maternal grandparents a pair of Hetian jade pots, symbolizing wealth and well-being. He also gave a pair of Hetian jade bracelets to your mother and your uncle, respectively. They were both of great significance."
"At that time, many people were envious."
Xu Wanyan was a little surprised. Although Hetian jade was a rare item, it shouldn't be something that would make people jealous.
"There are many kinds of Hetian jade, but those bracelets are rare treasures. Your mother should have left them to you, right?"
"Madam, my mother..."
"Madam Shen, I'm afraid you're joking. How can this jade pot be so lifelike?"
Zhao Yaru said this, but her eyes flickered, trying her best to hide her guilty conscience.
Xu Wanyan looked at the unpredictable expression on her face and guessed that she must know something, and she probably knew more than Old Madam Shen.
Moreover, she must have known it from Xu Maocai. Her mother married Xu Maocai for love, and she probably told him all her secrets.
Poor thing, she probably didn't expect that she would end up making wedding dresses for others.
"Are you kidding? Haha, Zhao, you come from a humble family after all. It's understandable that you haven't seen such a rare treasure."
Madam Shen smiled and looked at Xu Wanyan, "Wanyan, this is a good thing. I can't accept it. It's not just a jade pot, it's also a treasure from your maternal grandparents!"
Xu Wanyan looked at Old Madam Shen, her eyes a little wet. In her previous life, the Shen family was angry because of the fake goods, but in this life, they were unwilling to accept them.
She pushed back Old Madam Shen's hand and said sincerely, "Old Madam, this jade pot is a gift from me sincerely. How can I take back a gift I have given away? If you think highly of me, please accept it!"
Old Madam Shen turned her gaze to Zhao Yaru, then looked at Xu Wanyan, and sighed in her heart: I'm afraid that this Zhao had already embezzled the Su family's dowry.
Looking at Xu Wanyan, she felt more and more distressed.
"Okay, I'll keep it. I'll keep it. If you ever want it back later, I'll definitely return it intact."
Xu Wanyan nodded. She knew that Madam Shen was doing this for her own good and was worried that she would fall into Zhao Yaru's hands.
Seeing how intimate Madam Shen was with Xu Wanyan, the others also started talking to her.
For a time, Zhao Yaru and her daughter were ignored by everyone.
"Your Highness Prince Qi, Master Shen, Madam Shen, then I will take my daughter and leave first."
After Zhao Yaru finished speaking, she found that no one was watching them, so she could only leave in shame.
Xu Wanyan looked at their backs and curled the corners of her mouth. This was just the beginning.
Zhao Yaru and her daughter did not stay for the banquet, and Xu Wanyan did not plan to stay any longer. She said a few words to Mrs. Shen briefly and then said goodbye and went back.
"Miss, Madam and Miss are gone."
Qiao Yun felt resentful. They came here together, but he left the young lady here.
Don’t they know that this is the young lady’s first time attending a banquet?
Xu Wanyan looked at Qiao Yun, who was pouting, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's not like we don't know the way back."
"Then they can't just leave the young lady alone at the Shen family. After all, this is your first time going out."
Yes, this was her first time going out, and she got a lot of information.
Mrs. Shen's attitude made her realize that the Su and Chen families had frequent interactions in the past, and from now on, news about the Su family would have to start from the Shen family.
"Second Miss Xu."
Xu Wanyan was just about to get in the car when someone called her from behind.
When she turned around, she found that it was Lu Mingxuan.
"Sir, our young lady is going back."
When Qiao Yun saw Lu Mingxuan coming alone, she quickly stood in front of Xu Wanyan.
Lu Mingxuan sneered, his eyes revealing disgust. "Second Miss Xu, as far as I know, Miss Xu has always loved you. Why did you put her in such an unfair situation today?"
It turned out that he came to stand up for Xu Wanqing.
However, Xu Wanyan was not surprised at all. In his previous life, he was Xu Wanqing's loyal follower and had done a lot of bad things for her.
It was not until Xu Wanqing married into the Prince's Mansion that he realized he had been tricked. He tried to take revenge several times, but was eventually poisoned to death by Xu Wanqing.
In this life, he is still the same.
"I wonder what this young master's name is? Why does he know so much about my family's affairs? Did one of my servants tell me this? If so, please tell me the truth so that I can teach her how to be a servant of the Xu family when I return."
"you......"
Lu Mingxuan's face turned the color of liver, and he said indignantly: "How vicious! No wonder Lord Xu doesn't like you and only likes Miss Xu."
Xu Wanyan smiled slightly and asked with a puzzled look, "You know this too? It seems that I really need to ask this young master to go back and identify him."
Lu Mingxuan was extremely angry. He also wanted to go to the Xu family.
But, he is not qualified yet.
“That’s unreasonable!”
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.
"Miss, he belongs to the eldest lady..."
"He's a passionate man."
