Chapter 541 She looks like my granddaughter in every way!

Since the old lady of Duke Xin has already woken up, Xing Xing no longer needs to stay with her closely.

Just stay nearby and see him/her every day.

So Nanny Qingluan hurriedly asked someone to clean up another guest room next door and pleaded with Xingxing to stay for a few more days.

Xingxing naturally agreed.

Fortunately, Nanny Qingluan kept chanting Buddha's name.

Xingxing had a good night's sleep, but some people tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep at all.

For example, Yu Mingzhu who was kneeling in the ancestral hall.

Since it was an order personally issued by the old Duke Xin, no matter how reluctant Jiao and Yu Shanglian were, they dared not disobey the order in the slightest. Jiao could only have someone send a futon, a thick cloak, a charcoal basin, and some warm food to Yu Mingzhu so that she could kneel more comfortably at night.

But Yu Mingzhu had been spoiled since she was a child and was the apple of the eye of the entire Xinguo Mansion. How could she have ever suffered such hardship?

She knelt for half an hour and then fainted.

As a result, Yu Mingzhu's maid wanted to go out to inform Jiao, but was stopped by the guards arranged by the old Duke Xin in the ancestral hall, who would not let her go out: "The Duke said that the eldest lady must stay in the ancestral hall for three full days."

In the end, Yu Mingzhu "slowly came to" and knelt down again.

For example, those who couldn’t sleep were Yu Mingzhu’s parents.

Too many things happened that day, and Jiao and Yu Shanglian felt exhausted. On the one hand, the apple of her eye, whom she had doted on for more than ten years, might not be her biological daughter, and on the other hand, the family affection they had for more than ten years, Jiao's heart seemed to be torn in two, and she tossed and turned in pain, unable to sleep at all.

The same is true for Yu Shanglian, the father.

Besides Yu Mingzhu, the Jiao family’s Yu Shanglian couple, and of course Yu Mingzhu’s two brothers, those who couldn’t sleep included Yu Mingzhu.

The third brother is not at home now, traveling with his teacher, so he doesn't know about this matter, so that's it. Yu Chongjie, the eldest, watched Yu Mingzhu grow up. At that time, he had annoying brothers under him. Yu Mingzhu was the only sister, who was beautiful, coquettish, and considerate. Yu Chongjie always loved Yu Mingzhu very much.

Yu Chongjie tossed and turned in bed, and his wife Mao Fuqiu stared at the curtains above her head, and she didn't sleep either.

When Yu Chongjie suddenly realized that Mao Fuqiu was not asleep either, he was stunned for a moment: "Fuqiu, why are you not asleep either?"

Mao Fuqiu looked at the curtain and said slowly, "I remember that after I gave birth, you were not so worried that you couldn't sleep all night."

Yu Chongjie blushed, turned over and hugged Mao Fuqiu: "Fuqiu, this is different..."

Mao Fuqiu pushed him away, got up and sat on the bed, smiling somewhat lonely: "Of course it's different. That's the child I've been waiting for three years. How can it be more important than your sister who you've cherished since childhood and was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall because she offended her benefactor?"

These words pierced Yu Chongjie's heart like a sharp arrow. Yu Chongjie was heartbroken and hugged Mao Fuqiu again: "No, Fuqiu, listen to me, we will have children again in the future..."

Mao Fuqiu smiled sadly again: "Yes, mother is going to send you another concubine, right? You will have many children in the future, who knows, you may bring them to me and claim them as my children. We will certainly have more children."

Yu Chongjie hugged Mao Fuqiu, but suddenly found that his wife seemed to have lost a lot of weight during this period...

Yu Chongjie felt sad and no longer cared about Yu Mingzhu who was kneeling in the ancestral hall. He hugged Mao Fuqiu tightly and coaxed her in a low voice.

Yu Mingzhu's second brother, Yu Chongen, also did not fall asleep.

His mind was full of Wei Shuangyan.

In the past, there was an engagement that everyone tacitly accepted. Although his attitude towards Wei Shuangyan was not very good, he really regarded her as his future wife.

But now something unexpected happened and he would never be able to marry Wei Shuangyan in this life. And this consequence was caused only by the jealousy of a maid who he had no impression of at all - how could Yu Chongen accept this?

Also, his sister has been spoiled since she was a child, and she doesn't know how cold and hard the ground in the ancestral hall is. Does her knees hurt when she kneels, is she afraid, or is she cold?

Yu Chongen was half sad for him and Wei Shuangyan, and half worried about Yu Mingzhu. He didn't fall into a deep sleep until dawn.

Xingxing had no idea about the entanglements between these people.

She slept comfortably in the pile of brocade. Not long after she woke up in the morning, many maids from the Xin Guo Mansion rushed in with hot water, soft towels, spittoons for cleaning mouths and other things, and helped Xing Xing get up and wash.

Actually, Xingxing has never liked excessive service, but seeing that the maids who served her seemed to be all smiling and very happy, Xingxing swallowed the words of refusal and decided to make the best of it.

The maid in the lead had a cute round face. She was smiling as she combed Xingxing's hair. "My dear, our old lady has also woken up. She is serving food next door. Please come over and have breakfast."

Xing Xing said, "Okay, I'll come over after I finish combing my hair."

The round-faced maid couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile.

Xing Xing looked at her in the brass mirror: "What's the matter?"

The round-faced maid smiled and said, "Madame Qingluan told us that the Lord is a very good person and told us not to be afraid and just come and serve him. We are actually grateful to the Lord in our hearts. The Lord saved the old lady and is our great benefactor. So we are happy to see the Lord and can't help but smile."

The maids who were serving on the side also responded in agreement.

Xing Xing rubbed her face, feeling a little embarrassed.

She has heard so many words of thanks from last night till today.

But she really felt that she did nothing!

After washing up, Xingxing went to the next room.

I didn't expect that Duke Xin was also here.

Xingxing greeted the old couple, Duke Xin.

The old Duke Xin had a complicated expression. No matter how he looked at Xing Xing, she was good in every way, just like his own granddaughter!

He was a little worried. In the end, he found out that Xingxing was really not their child. What should he do?

After a night's rest, although the old lady of Duke Xin still needed someone to support her, she was able to stand up and was walking towards the table with the help of Nanny Qingluan.

When the old lady of Duke Xin saw Xingxing, she felt very friendly and stretched out her hand to invite Xingxing to come to her side.

Xing Xing agreed obediently and really chose a seat next to the old lady of Duke Xin and sat down.

Old Duke Xin sat on the other side of the round table and secretly glanced at Xingxing while eating.

Seeing Xing Xing eating roasted wheat, Duke Xin was excited. I also like to eat roasted wheat. This baby looks like me!

Seeing that Xingxing doesn’t like sweet tofu pudding much, old Duke Xin is excited. Just like her grandmother, she also doesn’t like sweet tofu pudding!

Seeing Xingxing eating the wontons in small bites, Old Duke Xin was excited. She thought that in this respect she was just like her grandmother, who was very graceful in eating!

In short, they all look like people from the Yu family!

——When the old Duke Xin thought of this, he wanted to slap his thigh. Xingxing’s surname is Yu, and their surnames are Yu. This is also a hint that this is their granddaughter!
