Before Liu Tangxi appeared, everyone in the house was waiting for her to appear, or to be more precise, waiting to see the wife of the top scholar make a fool of herself.

But when she really appeared in the house, everyone's thoughts of joking disappeared, and they all looked like the little maid just now, as if they had seen a ghost.

Even the old lady of Wenchang Marquis, who was over sixty years old, couldn't remain calm. She narrowed her eyes slightly and pointed at Liutangxi with trembling hands.

"Tang...Tangxi..."

At this moment, Liu Tangxi suddenly felt as if he was living in the book.

The characters in the book appeared vividly before her eyes one by one.

"Hello, old lady." Liu Tangxi bowed respectfully.

Hearing the familiar voice, the old lady shed tears excitedly.

"It's really you!"

Liu Tangxi was born in a marquisate since childhood, and the Wenchang Marquisate is also a century-old family. The two families have equal status and are both in the capital, so they are naturally familiar with each other.

It can be said that Liu Tangxi grew up under her care.

"Come here and let me take a good look," said the old lady.

Although Liu Tangxi has some memories of the original owner, those memories are more like a cold diary, without any warmth, and she has no feelings for these people.

However, the excitement on the old lady's face was too real, and Liu Tangxi's heart was slightly moved, so he took a step forward.

The moment the old lady held Liu Tangxi's hand, everyone in the room started talking.

"Isn't this the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Huai'en's mansion? Didn't we hear earlier that she had an accident on her way to burn incense and fell off a cliff and died?"

"Yes, everyone in the capital knows about this."

"But how did she appear here again?"

"Could it be... a ghost?"

"I vaguely remember that she died around this time, right?"

"Pfft, be careful with your words, look, she has a shadow."

"Yeah, how could it be a ghost?"

"By the way, who is she now?"

"The wife of the newly crowned number one scholar, Wei Xiuzhuan."

"I heard that the lady was bought by his mother?"

Everyone was a smart person. After saying this, everyone looked at each other and no one spoke. They all stared curiously at Liu Tangxi who was standing in front of the old lady of Wenchang Marquis.

The old lady touched Liu Tangxi's hand for a long time, wiped her tears, and asked with a sob, "My dear, didn't they say that you fell off a cliff and died? Where have you been all these years? How did you suddenly become the wife of the top scholar?"

Although the original owner had a bad temper and bullied her concubine sister at home, in the eyes of the old man, they were all younger generations. Moreover, Liu Tangxi was the legitimate daughter, and there were always some conflicts between the main wife and the concubine.

This was also the first time Liu Tangxi heard such words.

Fall off a cliff and die?

Liu Tangxi pursed her lips and said truthfully, "Since I woke up two years ago, I have been in my husband's home. Now that my husband has won the first place in the imperial examination and has been awarded an official position, I followed him to the capital."

As soon as these words were spoken, doubts appeared in everyone's eyes.

The wife of the Marquis of Wenchang said, "I heard the number one scholar say at the palace banquet that day that his mother

I was bought from a human trafficker, but you were bought by someone——"

Before he could finish his words, the old lady of Wenchang Marquis glared at him and she immediately shut up.

"It's all over, good child, don't be sad." The old lady comforted.

Liu Tangxi knew very well what the wife of Marquis Wenchang had not finished saying.

However, although Li was indeed bought from a human trafficker, it can also be said in another way.

Liu Tangxi pursed her lips and said, "Thank you for your comfort, old lady. However, when I woke up that day, I was in a carriage, and then I was going to escape. On the way to escape, I met my mother-in-law. It's better to say that my mother-in-law spent all her family savings to save me rather than buying me."

Saving and buying sound like two different things.

"Oh, so that's how it is." The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then why don't you come back quickly?"

Liu Tangxi said, "Come back? Old Madam, I don't know why you asked me these questions, nor do I know who the person you just mentioned is. When I woke up in the carriage, I forgot everything."

"Ah? You don't remember?" the old lady was surprised.

The ladies around also looked at each other.

They thought they would hear some explosive news, to know whether she fell off a cliff or how she was sold, but she actually lost her memory?

"Then, do you remember your name? Who are your parents? Where is your home?" the old lady asked anxiously.

Liu Tangxi shook his head and said, "I only remember that my last name is Liu and my first name is Tangxi, but I don't remember the rest. However, after coming to the capital, I feel that the capital is very familiar, as if I have been there before."

Hearing this, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief. After hearing what she had just heard, she thought she had recognized the wrong person. Now, after confirming who it was, she became excited again. In other words, the person in front of her was really the eldest daughter of the Huai En Marquis Mansion who had "resurrected from the dead".

"Coming to your house today is like seeing you in a dream."

The old lady's tears flowed down again, and she said, "You have not only seen it, you have also been here. When you were just one year old, your mother carried you here. Yes, speaking of your mother, you may not have gone back yet. I think your mother's illness will be better after seeing you."

Liu Tangxi was originally standing aside and listening to what the old lady said. After hearing these words, he suddenly became uneasy.

"Mother..."

Judging from what the old lady said, she definitely wasn’t talking about the stepmother, but could only be the original owner’s biological mother.

Two years have passed, and the original owner's mother is still alive?

It seems that after she came into the book, a lot of the plot seemed to have changed.

"Well, your mother has been ill since you left, and her condition has become worse recently. Go back and see her when you have time." The old lady sighed.

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi frowned slightly.

She really didn't know that the original owner's mother was still alive. If she knew...

Just then, there was a commotion at the door.

Liu Tangxi didn't look over at first, but then a little girl called her.

"Big...big sister?" Liu Yanyi looked at her in horror.

Yin was ill and did not come to Wenchang Marquis's mansion. Liu Yunan said that as the eldest daughter, she had to serve her mother at home, so she did not come either. But it would not be good not to come to Wenchang Marquis's mansion, so the third lady Liu Yunyi and the fourth lady Liu Yunling brought their nanny and maids to

Come here.

Just now they were also at the waterside pavilion, waiting to see the jokes of the wife of the number one scholar.

But as they waited, a little maid came with a pale face to tell them that Liu Tangxi was the wife of the top scholar.

They all grew up together, and Liu Tangxi was the daughter of a marquis, proud and high-profile, so everyone knew her. When she fell off the cliff, many people thought it was unbelievable. Now that they heard that she was back, they were naturally very surprised and all ran over.

Liu Tangxi looked back and saw many teenage girls wearing gold hairpins and silk dresses gathered at the door.

Seeing that Liu Tangxi didn't say anything, the old lady of Huai'enhou quickly explained, "Good boy, these are your two sisters. Do you remember them?"

Liu Tangxi was trying to decide which of the two was the heroine, but after looking at them again and again, he felt that neither of them looked alike.

"I just felt that he looked familiar, but I couldn't remember exactly." Liu Tangxi shook his head and said.

The little girls present were very surprised.

"These two are your third and fourth sisters. And these ones beside them are also your good sisters who grew up with you. Talk to them and maybe you can remember something."

Liu Tangxi looked at the cute, beautiful, and charming little girls in front of her. Without exception, she saw fear and curiosity in everyone's eyes. If she remembered correctly, the original owner had a somewhat arrogant temper, had a bad relationship with her concubine sister, and did not have many good friends outside.

Maybe, many of them were bullied by the original owners.

Therefore, there is no need to exchange feelings or anything like that.

She is not as powerful as the original owner. If someone plots against her from behind and kills her, it would be a complete loss.

Liu Tangxi thought for a moment and said, "Madam, I didn't know who I was before, nor who my parents were. I just heard you say that my mother was ill, and my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. I wanted to fly over and serve my mother by her bedside. So, I want to say sorry to you. I want to go back home to see my mother now."

The old lady's eyes showed satisfaction, and she said with relief, "It's been a few years since we last met, and you've grown up. It's time to go see your mother first."

Liu Tangxi's return was a big deal, and she was the eldest daughter of the mansion. After she said that, no one in the Huai'en Marquis's mansion could stay here any longer. Besides, no one was in the mood to appreciate the flowers.

So, everyone followed Liu Tangxi and left Wenchang Marquis Mansion.

As soon as Liu Tangxi left, people in the room started talking again.

"I haven't seen you for two years. The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Huai'en is very different from before."

"Alas, she is such a pitiful person. She is the legitimate daughter of a marquis family, but she was sold by a human trafficker. I wonder what kind of life she has been leading in the past two years."

"That's right. You must take good care of your daughter in the future, so that nothing like this can happen to her."

"Yes, you are right. I will have to punish the people who serve them when I get back."

Most of these ladies are the principal wives of the family. If one had previously wanted to see the jokes of the wife of the number one scholar who was born in a brothel, now that one sees that the wife of the number one scholar is a girl who grew up under their care, one's mood will be very different.

After all, they felt that Liu Tangxi had such an experience because his family did not take him seriously.

There were many people who sympathized and sighed, but few who laughed at the joke.

"But she

I am lucky to have met the No. 1 scholar and now I can marry him. If I were unlucky and was really sold to such a place, my life would be ruined. "

"That's right. It shows that the mother of the top scholar is kind-hearted."

"Yes, just look at that number one scholar. He rejected the emperor in public that day."

"Yes, Miss Liu, this is a blessing in disguise."

No matter how bad Liu Tangxi's personality is, she is still a little girl and a member of the younger generation in the eyes of her elders.

The little girls had nothing good to say. Many of them had been bullied by her, and now seeing how miserable she was, they began to mutter a lot of gloating words.

Liu Tangxi didn't know how others evaluated her, but even if she knew, she wouldn't care.

Now that she has come back to life, it is a very strange thing for the people in the capital. Everyone will definitely talk about her behind her back. She is a person who likes to listen to gossip, and she understands everyone's mood. She will not shut everyone up, and she doesn't have the ability to do so.

At this moment, she was sitting in the carriage.

Liu Pingyi and Liu Pingling had been fighting fiercely in private. When they arrived, they were still arguing about who should sit in the middle of the carriage. But at this moment, neither of them dared to sit in the middle. As soon as they got on the carriage, they sat on both sides and gave the middle seat to Liu Tangxi.

However, their eyes were not honest and they looked at Liu Tangxi from time to time.

However, when Liu Tangxi looked over, the two people were so scared that they dared not look at her and avoided her gaze.

Liu Tangxi secretly sighed in her heart that these two little girls must have been bullied a lot by the original owner, otherwise they wouldn't be so afraid of her.

However, she remembered that none of the heroine's three sisters was easy to deal with.

She was afraid, but it saved her a lot of trouble.

Perhaps the servant driving the carriage was also frightened by what happened today and knew how important the matter was, so the carriage was driving very fast.

Although the carriage was very luxurious and many times better than the small carriage she had taken on the way to Beijing, Liu Tangxi still inevitably began to feel dizzy.

Fortunately, before she could vomit, they had already arrived at Marquis Huai'en's Mansion.

"Miss, we're here." A maid said as she lifted the curtain.

Liu Tangxi looked extremely bad, he closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, raised his hand and pressed his chest to suppress the feeling of vomiting.

The old woman didn't know why Liu Tangxi looked so bad. She thought about how this young lady had beaten and scolded the servants before, and she was so scared that she knelt on the ground, trembling.

After a while, Liu Tangxi opened his eyes, lifted the curtain and went down.

Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, she blinked and wanted to say something, but she held back.

She had no idea what the situation was in the mansion, so she decided to meet the original owner's mother first.

"Get up, take me to see my mother."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and a maid stepped forward and said, "Yes, young lady."

On the way to the main courtyard, Liu Tangxi received many shocked looks, and many people knelt on the ground to greet him.

Liu Tangxi still remembers the description of the original owner in the book.

The wife of Marquis Huai'en was the mistress of the household, and Liu Tangxi was the legitimate daughter. She had a bad temper and liked to beat and scold the servants, so everyone was afraid of her.

Now it seems that

That’s true.

Liu Tangxi had no intention of changing anything at this moment, she just wanted to see the original owner's mother as soon as possible.

In the book, the original owner reappeared after disappearing for two months, so she should have met her mother at that time. As for the subsequent plot in the book, she didn't remember it very well. She only remembered that the original owner was able to enter the Third Prince's Mansion with the help of her mother.

Because of this incident, the original owner's mother was abandoned by Marquis Huai En.

The original owner's mother also gradually died of illness.

As he was thinking, Liu Tangxi walked to the main courtyard.

As soon as she entered, she smelled a strong smell of medicine.

A little maid was carrying the medicine residue to pour it out, but when she saw Liu Tangxi, she was so scared that she dropped the clay pot containing the medicine on the ground, and the residue was scattered all over the floor.

Liu Tangxi looked down at the medicine residue scattered on her embroidered shoes.

The little maid fell to her knees with a plop, her face pale.

"Big...big...big girl, please...spare my life."

Liu Tangxi glanced at her and then looked away, saying calmly, "Get up."

The little maid kowtowed quickly and said, "Thank you, Miss."

Liu Tangxi walked inside.

"Ahem."

"Ahem."

"Cough cough cough"

"Yunniang, tell me, am I going to die soon?"

"Ma'am, you just took the medicine. Take a good rest first. Don't think too much. You will be well soon."

"Oh, I hate it! Why hasn't that little bastard died yet!" Yin's face showed a fierce look. However, after saying this, she coughed violently again.

"Madam, let's take good care of ourselves first. We will have plenty of opportunities to avenge the young lady in the future."

"Xixi, my Xixi, cough cough." Yin started coughing again, "Tell me, if I die, will I be able to see Xixi?"

"Young lady, please stop talking..." Nanny Shao changed the way she addressed Madam Huai'en, and then she couldn't help crying.

Listening to the conversation inside, Liu Tangxi let out a long sigh. Although she was not the real Liu Tangxi, these words made her feel sad.

Although Lady Huai'en is the vicious stepmother in the book and has tried to kill the heroine time and time again, she is also the original owner's mother and the person who loves her the most in the world.

After collecting his thoughts, Liu Tangxi pushed open the door in front of him.

Hearing the noise, Madam Shao wiped her tears, turned around and scolded, "Who is this little bitch? Who allowed you to come in?"

Liu Tangxi was facing the light, so Nanny Shao didn't see who it was at first.

As Liu Tangxi got closer, Yin, who was sitting on the bed, was the first to recognize her. Her pale lips trembled a few times and she murmured, "Xixi...is that you?"

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi quickened his pace.

After seeing Liu Tangxi's face clearly, Yin shed tears and said, "My Xixi, my damn Xixi."

Madam Shao's eyes widened, and she said with trembling lips, "Big...big girl."

"Yunniang, am I really going to die? I actually saw Xixi." Yin asked Nanny Shao excitedly.

Nanny Shao was in a daze and couldn't answer this question.

Liu Tangxi originally thought that Yin was a vicious villain in the book and she would not have any feelings for her. But now, seeing her sitting on the bed with a pale and haggard face, as if she was using all her strength to call her name, her tears suddenly flowed from her eyes.

No matter how bad she is, she is still a mother, a mother who cares about her daughter wholeheartedly.

"Mom, it's me. I'm back." Liu Tangxi said chokingly while sitting on the edge of the bed.

Yin nervously held Liu Tangxi's hand, tears streaming down her face, her lips trembling as she said, "It's really Xixi, it's really her. Yunniang, it's really her."

As she spoke, Yin looked at Nanny Shao who was standing beside her.

Madam Shao came back to her senses, wiped her tears, and said with a sob, "Yes, it's the eldest girl."

"Mom." Liu Tangxi called her again.

Yin hugged her daughter and burst into tears.

The author has something to say. Since everyone wants to read this, I will add another chapter~

The evening chapter is expected to be completed around midnight.
