Chen Jinhua worked as a laundry woman in Lu Yao's house. She had endless clothes to wash every day. No matter it was winter or summer, she would start working as soon as she opened her eyes.
Compared to being beggars outside before, at least the Lu family has no worries about food and clothing.
She was still unwilling to accept the fact. She had been given a mute drug and thought she would never be able to speak again. However, she did not expect that she would be able to speak again a few months later. She thought that it was all just Madam Qian trying to scare her.
Now that the matter is done, she can't change her status as a slave.
That day, she was beating clothes with all her strength when someone suddenly came to the front yard and called her. She followed him to the front yard in a daze.
Jiang Sui brought Jiang to Lu Yao's house. After the Lu family learned of Jiang's identity, they treated her with the highest level of etiquette and gave out all the good things.
He is a noble family from Kyoto. His status far exceeds that of the noble families from Jeju, so we dare not neglect him.
Chen Jinhua was brought to the front yard. She was a little nervous. She had been in the Lu Mansion for such a long time, but to be honest, she had only been to the front yard a few times. It was so luxurious and wealthy. The maids were dressed like the young ladies.
She glanced around with a sly look all the way and came to the front hall. The Lu family was talking to Jiang. Jiang was approachable and easy to get along with. No one felt any burden in front of her.
"Madam, the person has been brought here!"
The nanny who brought Chen Jinhua over asked for instructions.
"Bring him in!" Mrs. Lu nodded.
Afterwards, Chen Jinhua was brought in. As soon as she came in, the nanny asked her to kneel down. She had never learned any etiquette, so she didn't understand it at all.
But she saw Jiang Sui at first sight. This girl was dressed so exquisitely and luxuriously, wearing gold and silver jewelry, and was getting richer and richer. In comparison, she was harmed by Xiao Hechuan and turned from a good citizen into a slave.
She was very upset and the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, so she started to curse Jiang Sui.
"You little bitch, you're living a good life out there, but you brought me in here to be a slave, doing laundry in that dark place every day. I've raised you for more than ten years in vain, and you'll get your comeuppance."
Her vulgar remarks instantly made Jiang frown.
After not seeing her for such a long time, Chen Jinhua looks much older.
Chen Jinhua's attitude made the Lu family gasp. The Xuanping Marquis' Mansion was extremely wealthy and powerful, and they couldn't afford to offend them.
"You are so shameless, you are such a shameless slave. Get down on your knees!"
Mrs. Lu slammed the table, and the oppressive feeling from the host's family frightened Chen Jinhua so much that she immediately knelt down, trembling with fear.
"Sui Sui, is this your adoptive mother?"
Jiang looked at Chen Jinhua. She couldn’t dare to imagine how such a family, with such a character, had lived in their family in the past.
Fortunately, now she is still tall and graceful, graceful, well-educated and well-mannered.
She still had many doubts in her mind. Why could her daughter who grew up in such a family atmosphere still be able to speak eloquently? As far as they knew, Suisui did not have a good life in the Jiang family and could not even afford to go to school. So?
However, the Marquis told her that none of this mattered. What mattered was that the child could return to them.
"Yes, she is Chen Jinhua, my adoptive mother!" Jiang Sui had to admit the fact.
Chen Jinhua was indeed not a good person, but she did raise the original owner. Although she was not good to her, she brought her up.
It was the first time that Mrs. Lu knew that this lowly slave was actually Jiang Sui's adoptive mother. At that time, when the youngest son brought her into the mansion, they didn't take it seriously and only knew that it was arranged by Young Master Xiao.
Xiao Hechuan has always performed well. She and Master Lu also strongly approve of Lu Yao playing with him. After all, it is true that "birds of a feather flock together."
Well, Lu Yao at least made the trip to Kyoto, and now he is at least a juren.
Chen Jinhua has had enough of her current life. She can feel that Jiang Sui is becoming more and more successful, and her daughter doesn't want her anymore. She is the only one she can rely on in this life. She doesn't want to spend her later years living in hardship.
So, she began to change her attitude.
"Jiang Sui, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have treated you like that before. I really know I was wrong. Can you please let me leave here? I don't want to be a slave anymore. Although I treated you badly in the past, I still raised you. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to marry Xiao Hechuan and live the rich life you have now, right?
You are a great man who doesn't bear grudges. Please forgive me and let me be a good citizen again. I promise that I will never bother you again and I will stay away from you. Is that ok?"
As she spoke, Chen Jinhua began to kowtow, tears streaming down her face.
Jiang Sui didn't know her too well. She was just fighting for her own interests and wanted to leave here as soon as possible. In fact, she didn't really regret it at all.
Jiang Sui glanced at Jiang, as if asking for an answer. She couldn't forgive Chen Jinhua on behalf of the original owner. After all, she was the one who had suffered all that pain.
The Jiang family was also caught in a dilemma, and it was really difficult to weigh the pros and cons.
At this time, Lu Yao spoke:
"Madam Hou, sister-in-law, how about this? I will arrange other things for Chen, and she won't be needed to continue doing laundry work in the future. But she has already become a slave. She is so old, and she may not be able to survive in other places. She might as well stay in my Lu Mansion. After all, someone with such a vicious heart like her may harm others when she goes out in the future. If sister-in-law and Madam Hou can trust her, I will take care of her in the future."
It is impossible to let her go, Xiao Hechuan has explained.
What Lu Yao said was fine. Jiang Sui and Jiang Shi had no objection.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Master Lu."
"Madam Hou, you are too kind. You are my sister-in-law's biological mother. Brother Xiao and my sister-in-law have taken good care of me on a daily basis. Lu Yao remembers it in his heart. It's just a small favor. It's my honor to share your worries."
"Yes, Madam Hou, what A Yao said is right. I am grateful that Mr. Xiao was willing to take our Lu Yao to study together. Otherwise, with his talent, how could he have achieved what he has today so quickly?"
Mrs. Lu also joined in the conversation. She knew her son was a bookworm. Without Xiao Hechuan's guidance, he would have difficulty passing the autumn examination, let alone entering the capital.
Madam Hou? Biological mother and daughter? Xiao Zhuangyuan?
Chen Jinhua, who was kneeling there, was a little confused when she heard this because there were too many elements in this conversation.
"Are you her biological mother? Are you the wife of the Marquis's mansion?"
Facing Chen Jinhua's surprised look, Jiang Sui nodded calmly:
"Yes, I have found my biological parents. They are the Marquis and his wife from the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion in Kyoto."
