I'm so happy to know that my child is alive and well.
Although we've only known each other for a day, I can tell that the Mu family are all very nice, and they treat Ningbao very well too.
If the child refuses to acknowledge me as her mother, I can treat her well as an aunt or maternal aunt.
"By the way, Yunrou, I'd like to buy a piece of land in Chuyun Village and build a house."
Gu Yunrou glared at Su Jingshu.
"Jing Shu, what kind of house are you building?"
Are you being too formal?
"Isn't my estate big enough for you to live in?"
Su Jingshu gently patted Gu Yunrou's arm.
"Yunrou, don't rush, listen to me."
Ningbao has a good relationship with the Mu family. Regardless of whether she acknowledges me or not, I want to stay in Chuyun Village to accompany her as she grows up until she comes of age.
Since we're close, I certainly won't feel awkward staying at your place.
However, if we stay here for an extended period, the prince will definitely come every few days, and it would be improper for him to stay at your dowry estate.
Although we don't care about these things, you know how cunning the people in the backyard of the Marquis's mansion are.
I don't want them to smear you because of this.
Although this place is far from the capital, sometimes it's better to be safe than sorry.
I see there's a lot of vacant land in Izumo Village, so I'll buy a plot and build a yard. From now on, I'll live here and be your neighbor."
Gu Yunrou smiled and nodded.
"That's great! Why bother looking for land? There are a few acres of land next to the estate that belong to me. You can just build there."
"I'll have Uncle Xiang go to the yamen and get the land deed done separately for you. The land happens to be between the Mu family's house and the village, so it'll be perfect for building your house there."
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony..."
Shen Muyang, walking behind Gu Yunrou and Su Jingshu, frowned...
He hadn't expected Ning Bao to be a child of the Zhou family, the young princess of the prestigious Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. It seemed he needed to work harder, otherwise…
Mu Chunping politely ushered Su Jingshu and her group into the house.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ningbao got down from Li Guizhi's arms and walked to the center of the room to look at everyone.
Ningbao only found out today that she is already four years and four months old.
Ningbao was three and a half years old when she came down from the mountain. At that time, Ningbao had her parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and brothers.
Today, Ningbao learned that she now has biological parents. In fact, Ningbao had been sad before, sad that she was a child no one wanted.
Was it because Ningbao wasn't well-behaved, cute, or obedient enough that she was thrown away...?
Ningbao's voice was tinged with tears and a hint of grievance.
Hearing this, Su Jingshu could no longer hold back her tears.
"My child, your mother hasn't abandoned you, she hasn't... she really hasn't..."
Ning Bao toddled up to Su Jing Shu with her short, sturdy legs and handed her a clean handkerchief.
"Don't cry."
Ningbao doesn't blame you. You're not feeling well, so you can't cry. You still have to watch Ningbao grow up, get married, and have children.
Although Ningbao didn't grow up by your side, Ningbao has been very happy all these years. Ningbao has many, many people who love her.
I'm so happy to have you all with Ningbao now.
After wiping away Su Jingshu's tears, Ningbao continued walking to the middle of the room.
"What Ningbao wants to say today is to tell you that Ningbao is very happy to have you all, and you are all Ningbao's family."
Today we've officially become family; from now on, you're all Ningbao's family. Now, Ningbao will announce how we'll address you.
