Chapter 681 Did Jiao hide the fact that they had another child?



Chapter 681 Did Jiao hide the fact that they had another child?

Jiao was very moved.

Aunt Jiao San immediately expressed her intention to visit Yu Mingzhu.

Jiao subconsciously glanced at the old lady of Duke Xin.

However, there was a hint of warning in the eyes of the old lady of Duke Xin.

It was obviously a warning to Jiao family to quickly discuss Yu Mingzhu's background with them.

Jiao slightly avoided the warning look from the old lady of Duke Xin and forced a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. She's just a little girl, so she's not really sick. She's just a little weak. I was afraid that she would pass on her illness to mother, so I didn't let her come. If Third Sister-in-law wants to see her, I'll let Zhuzhu go and pay her respects to Third Sister-in-law later."

When Aunt Jiao San heard this, she knew that Yu Mingzhu's illness was not a big deal, so she smiled and said, "Mingzhu is not feeling well, so let her take good care of herself. I'll go with you to see her later."

Seeing that Jiao was still trying to evade the question and was unwilling to tell Yu Mingzhu's family in detail about her life experience, the old lady of Duke Xin was furious and felt that Jiao had become more and more confused these days!

If the old lady of Duke Xin was not still thinking about giving her some dignity in front of Jiao's family, she really wanted to expose it bluntly in front of Jiao's third aunt that Yu Mingzhu was not of Jiao's bloodline at all!

After the greetings, Jiao San's aunt felt thirsty, so she picked up the tea. Just as she was about to drink it, she noticed that there was a little girl with bright eyes and white teeth sitting in the chair to the right of the old lady of Duke Xin. When Jiao San's aunt saw her, she shook her hand and the water in the teacup spilled out, almost scalding her hand.

Aunt Jiao San took a breath of cold air: "What is this?"

Aunt Jiao San looked at Jiao subconsciously.

If Jiao's third aunt had not known that Jiao had only one daughter, Yu Mingzhu, she would have thought that Jiao had given birth to another child without telling them!

They look so alike!

Jiao bit her lower lip and her face turned pale.

Aunt Jiao San quickly came to her senses and apologized to the old lady of Duke Xin: "I'm sorry, old lady, please don't blame me, it's really..."

She touched her chest and looked at Xing Xing suspiciously.

Aunt Jiao San was increasingly confused about the type of girl in front of her, who had bright eyes and white teeth and looked about 60% like Jiao when she was a child.

——In fact, Xingxing has grown a lot in the past year or so, and no longer looks like Jiao when she was young.

However, despite this, the two people are still very similar.

Aunt Jiao thought for a moment and said, "...I didn't look carefully when I entered the room. I just accidentally looked at the girl's face and found that she looks a bit like my sister Yuan. I wonder who this girl is..."

Aunt Jiao San said it very tactfully and didn't say it directly, saying that Xingxing looked like Jiao when she was young.

But my niece Xiao Gu, the daughter of the fifth room, looks most like Jiao when she was young, and is therefore the most loved by the elders in the family.

When Jiao's aunt-in-law said that Xingxing looked like Yuan Jie'er, wasn't she hinting in a subtle way that Xingxing looked like Jiao when she was young?

The old lady of Duke Xin had an unfathomable smile on her face as she introduced Jiao's third aunt, "... this is Princess Fusui, who was personally conferred the title by His Majesty."

Aunt Jiao San hurriedly bowed to Xing Xing and said, "It's the princess. I've met the princess."

Xing Xing stood up: "Mrs. Jiao San, you are too polite."

The more Aunt Jiao looked at Xing Xing, the more she thought she looked like Jiao when she was a child. She knew that Jiao often came to the Xin Guogong Mansion to play when she was a child, and she and the Xin Guogong's son were childhood sweethearts. The Xin Guogong's old lady also watched Jiao grow up.

Aunt Jiao San looked at the old lady of Duke Xin inquiringly, trying to judge what was going on from her expression.

Is it just a coincidence, or?

However, the old lady of Duke Xin started to drink tea with her eyes downcast, looking calm and composed, and did not answer at all.

Aunt Jiao San had no other choice.

After all, the person in front of her was a princess. Although she had a third-rank imperial decree, she still had to perform formalities when meeting a princess.

She couldn't just ask the princess directly, what is your relationship with my aunt?

Is she crazy?

Aunt Jiao scratched her head and cheeks, trying hard to suppress her curiosity. She finally waited to say goodbye to the old lady of Duke Xin and left the main courtyard with Jiao.

She almost immediately chose a secluded place, asked the servants around her to stay away, and took Jiao's hand: "Aunt, tell me the truth, what's going on with Princess Fusui?"

Jiao still didn't want to admit it, as if if she didn't admit it, Xingxing would not be her biological daughter, and she could continue to be wholeheartedly good to her Zhuzhu without any guilt.

Jiao looked around and said something else: "What's going on? ... Are you asking why Princess Fusui is here? She is good at medicine and came to check my mother-in-law's pulse."

Aunt Jiao San was anxious: "No, that's not what I'm asking. I mean..."

Aunt Jiao San lowered her voice, "...Why does she look so much like you when you were young?"

Jiao shuddered.

She couldn't laugh anymore: "...Are they similar?"

Aunt Jiao San nodded resolutely: "It's exactly like him! It's exactly like him!"

Aunt Jiao San lowered her voice and said, "Ah Tong, tell me the truth, this could not be you who gave birth to this child outside without telling your master, right?"

Aunt Jiao's words were actually a bit joking. Seeing that something was not quite right with Jiao, she wanted to make a joke to lighten the atmosphere.

Who knew that after hearing this, Jiao became even more nervous and her body became stiff.

When Aunt Jiao San saw this, the smile on her face froze immediately. She took a breath of cold air and said in disbelief: "No, wait, A-Tong, you?!"

Aunt Jiao San was so shocked that she couldn't control her voice.

Jiao's scalp was numb, and she quickly pulled the sleeve of Jiao San's aunt: "Keep your voice down, keep your voice down! ... It's nothing!"

She took a deep breath, and then felt that there were so many things going on that she didn't know where to start. Jiao simply sighed and said, "...Anyway, it's nothing. Don't think too much. I'll think about how to tell you."

Aunt Jiao's heart sank as she realized more and more that this matter was not simple.

She looked around and felt that this was not the place to talk: "Let's go, let's talk when we get back."

When they arrived at Jiao's yard, Yu Mingzhu was already waiting in the house.

Aunt Jiao San was still a little uneasy at first, but when she saw Yu Mingzhu, she smiled sincerely: "Mingzhu is here too."

Yu Mingzhu was wearing a jade-colored moon-lit dress, which made her skin look as white as snow and her bones as jade as jade, making her look very lovable.

She stepped forward and bowed to Third Aunt Jiao: "Third Aunt, Mingzhu was afraid that she would pass her illness to Grandmother, so she was not able to pay her respects to you immediately. Please don't blame Mingzhu."

Looking at her graceful niece in front of her, Aunt Jiao San couldn't stop smiling.

She stepped forward, took Yu Mingzhu's hand, and said angrily, "How can Third Aunt be such an unreasonable person?"

Aunt Jiao looked Yu Mingzhu up and down, and the more she looked, the more she liked her: "...Ah, I haven't seen you for more than a year. Our Mingzhu has grown into a big girl. She is getting more beautiful."

As she spoke, Aunt Jiao San took off the jade bracelet on her hand and put it on Yu Mingzhu's wrist.

"It's just right. I think the color of this bracelet is a little too young for me, but it matches our Mingzhu just right." Aunt Jiao San smiled, and it was obvious that she liked Yu Mingzhu from the bottom of her heart.

Yu Mingzhu showed an expression of flattery and surprise, her eyes were red, and she looked very moved: "Third aunt, you are so kind to me..."

Third Aunt Jiao hurriedly pulled Yu Mingzhu into her arms, saying, "My Mingzhu, what happened? What wronged you? Third Aunt only gave you a bracelet, why are you so moved?"

She joked, "If you knew that your third aunt came this time and brought several carts of your grandmother, and some good things that your other aunts gave you, wouldn't you burst into tears on the spot and cry until your eyes were swollen?"

When Yu Mingzhu heard this, she cried and laughed at the same time: "Grandma... Third aunt, you, you are so kind to me."

Jiao felt more and more troubled as she watched her third sister-in-law from her natal family holding Yu Mingzhu in her arms and coaxing her.

Aunt Jiao San smiled again and said, "I brought your cousin Yulou with me when I came to the capital this time. His teacher is coming to the capital to give lectures, and he is currently accompanying his teacher and discussing business with your father in the front yard. When the discussion is over, I will let your cousin Yulou come over to accompany you. Don't cry, or you will have swollen eyes. Your cousin Yulou has always loved you, and he will be heartbroken. If you don't know, you might think I have bullied our Mingzhu."

Yu Mingzhu's heart was slightly moved, but she looked a little embarrassed. She wiped her eyes and said shyly, "Third aunt is making fun of me."

Aunt Jiao San made Yu Mingzhu very happy. Yu Mingzhu personally made tea for both Jiao and Aunt Jiao San, making the uncle and nephew look very harmonious.

Jiao watched from the side with mixed feelings. She hesitated again and again, and just couldn't bring herself to say that Yu Mingzhu was not her biological daughter.

"...Brother, don't look outside. My sister is really not in the house."

Ju Ge'er rolled his eyes and said to Wei Zihang impatiently.

Wei Zihang remained calm and said, "Who said I was looking at Xingxing? Is it not okay for me to look at the scenery outside the pavilion?"

Ju Ge'er chuckled: "Okay, why not? Then you look good."

Ju Ge'er yawned, casually placed a white piece, and called the servant to bring him some snacks.

The Lantern Festival has not yet passed and the school has not started yet. Ju Ge'er and his friends have finished their homework early under the supervision of their brother at home, so they are naturally very relaxed at the moment.

Like at this moment, Wei Zihang came and insisted on taking him to the warm pavilion to play chess.

Oh, do you really think he doesn't know what this kid is planning?

What a pity, his sister is not at home today!

The two of them played two games in a row. Wei Zihang was absent-minded and was defeated by Ju Ge'er's Baizi. He was in a very desperate situation.

At the end of the game, Ju Geer threw down the chess piece and said, "I am tired. I will not play any more. I feel like I am playing chess with a fool. This is an unfair victory, an unfair victory!"

"Well, I'm just not in a good condition..." Wei Zihang hadn't finished his explanation when he saw Xing Xing and Song Shouqing coming from the archway.

Wei Zihang, who was in "bad condition", immediately jumped up and rushed out.

When Ju Ge'er saw this guy running faster than a rabbit when he saw his sister, he sneered.

I treat you as a brother, but you only want to be my brother-in-law?!

Don’t even think about it!

Brother Ju immediately chased after him.

Xingxing and Song Shouqing are talking about Miaomiao.

"...seems like she already recognizes me. When I went there, the little girl blew bubbles at me. Cousin Yueyi said she might have recognized me."

Xing Xing nodded repeatedly, smiling broadly: "Yes, yes, Miao Miao is so cute when she blows bubbles! She also loves to show me how to blow bubbles!"

The two were chatting happily about Miaomiao when Wei Zihang ran over breathlessly, "Princess, princess, princess..."

Xing Xing was startled. Seeing Wei Zihang running out of breath, she couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Wei, do you want to talk to me about something?"

Wei Zihang coughed, glanced at Song Shouqing, and then stood still: "...Nothing, I just saw Xingxing coming over and said hello to you."

Song Shouqing said suddenly, "One moment she's the princess, the next she's Xing Xing. I don't know if Young Master Wei is being polite or not."

Wei Zihang immediately put his hands on his hips and said, "I'm happy to do that! Xingxing and I..."

Wei Zihang wanted to say, considering the relationship between me and Xingxing, what can't I do? But before he could finish his words, he saw Ju Ge'er coming over and staring at him eagerly.

Wei Zihang immediately changed his words: "Given my relationship with Xingxing's fifth brother, Xingxing won't blame me for being rude no matter what I call her, right?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Song Shouqing with some pride.

Song Shouqing snorted, although he didn't say anything, but his attitude was fully expressed in this "huh".

Wei Zihang immediately raised his eyebrows.

The two of them seemed to be on the verge of a fight.

Ju Ge'er ignored Song Shouqing and Wei Zihang. He asked Xingxing, "Have you eaten yet?"

Xing Xing said: "I ate some at noon. Don't tell me. Now that you've asked, I'm a little hungry again."

Ju Geer started laughing: "Speaking of which, the Suyang restaurant we went to last time seemed pretty good. I ate there once and I'm craving the crab roe steamed buns. How about we go out for dinner together?"

Xing Xing agreed immediately: "Okay, okay."

Ju Ge'er looked at Wei Zihang and Song Shouqing again.

He naturally hoped that the two of them would be more interesting and not force themselves to follow them out.

However, one of them said shamelessly that he was also hungry, while the other one said seriously but also shamelessly that he was from Suzhou and missed the taste of his hometown.

...This means that everyone must follow.

Brother Ju rolled his eyes.

Song Shouqing immediately asked Xingxing: "Xingxing, you don't mind if I go eat with you?"

Xing Xing said, "I don't mind. My sister-in-law is still in confinement after giving birth. You are here to see Miao Miao, so I have to treat you well."

Song Shouqing glanced at Wei Zihang subtly.

Not wanting to be outdone, Wei Zihang followed closely and asked Xingxing: "Xingxing, do you mind if I go eat with you?"

Xing Xing said: "I don't mind. Young Master Wei is Ju Ge'er's friend."

Wei Zihang glanced at Song Shouqing even more proudly.

Sparks were crackling in their eyes.

Ju Geer rolled his eyes again and said to Xing Xing, "Xing Xing, let's go. Don't pay any attention to them. They are two idiots."

He really felt that he made friends carelessly, and now everyone is trying to take advantage of his cabbage!
