Chapter 54 The Child Turns Out to Be Her
Yun Qiao never thought that Chen Jingyan would give her a child, and a pretty grown-up one at that.
Three or five days after he said that, Chen Jingyan sent the child to Lanyuan.
It's a girl.
Yun Qiao looked at the child carefully again and again and found that the child looked very familiar.
She glanced at Xiaotao and whispered, "Xiaotao, she looks familiar to me. I feel like I've seen her somewhere before."
Xiao Tao said, "That must be what the young lady likes. She must be happy to see him. However, I don't know what the Marquis is thinking. Why did he send a child to the young lady?"
The little girl was brought here by an old maid.
The girl's eyes were bright and full of spirit. Surprisingly, there was no timidity or fear in them, but rather determination.
"Sister Yuan has met Auntie."
Auntie...
It seems that Chen Jingyan told this to the child.
Yun Qiao never expected that Chen Jingyan's efficiency in the inner house was still so high.
"Sister Yuan? I remember now, are you the little girl who came to the back door of the Marquis' Mansion before? You also have a younger brother..."
If she remembered correctly, Yuan Jie'er's younger brother was the one who was taken to the Marquis' Mansion and raised in the eldest son's room. However, Yun Qiao had never seen the child, but had heard about him from Yu Lan, the maid who served the old lady.
She said that when the sister and brother came, the younger brother was sent to the eldest wife, Cai.
My sister was sent to a farm to be raised.
Yun Qiao sent the old nanny away and took the child's hand and walked into the house.
"Look at her this year, she's already five or six years old?" Yun Qiao really didn't know her exact age.
Sister Yuan whispered, "I lied at the farm and said I was eight years old. I'm only six this year, and I celebrated my birthday in early March."
"Aunt, do you really want to raise me? I beg you to raise me. Don't worry, when I grow up, I will be filial to you." Yuan Jie'er said as she was about to kneel down.
Yun Qiao hurriedly pulled her hand.
"You've already come to my courtyard, why would I send you away? Besides, it was the Marquis's idea to send you here."
"Marquis?" Yuan Jie'er's eyes showed some doubt. "I just gave some food to an uncle at the farm that day. Could that uncle be the Marquis?"
Chen Jingyan is indeed Yuanjie's uncle.
Chen Jingyan's father and Yuan Jie'er's grandfather are half-brothers.
Yuanjie should call Chen Jingyan uncle.
But there is a huge gap between their statuses, and Yuanjieer cannot call this uncle.
Yun Qiao never expected that such wonderful stories had happened before Yuan Jie'er was sent to her.
"I think so."
Yun Qiao chuckled.
Xiao Tao looked at Yuan Jie'er and said with a smile: "You are extremely lucky to have met my daughter. My daughter is the most generous to others."
"Sister Yuan thanks Auntie for raising me."
Yun Qiao likes Yuan Jie'er mainly because she is so sensible and smart.
Thinking that she would not be able to have children in the future, it would always be a good thing to have a daughter by her side.
But from Yuan Jie'er's eyes, she seemed to see something else, but it was only a flash, and Yun Qiao didn't deliberately observe it, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Yuan Jie'er was brought from the farm, and her clothes were worn out. Although Yun Qiao was not doing very well now, she had no problem raising a child with food and drink.
He immediately called a tailor to make a few clothes for Yuanjie.
"Xiao Tao, have someone go out and buy two sets of clothes for you to wear temporarily. It takes time to tailor these clothes, at least half a month."
Yun Qiao looked at Yuan Jie'er's figure. The little girl had been malnourished for many years and was a little too thin.
Now make two fitted ones first, and then two looser ones.
Yuan Jie'er stood in front of Yun Qiao and looked up at her.
This beautiful sister was a kind person. She liked her at first sight. Unexpectedly, she became her daughter. The nanny who sent her to the Marquis' Mansion said that as long as she was well-behaved and obedient, she would enjoy endless blessings in the Marquis' Mansion in the future.
Moreover, her younger brother is still in the Marquis' Mansion.
Maybe she will have a chance to see her brother again in the future.
Thinking of this, Yuanjie felt better.
"My aunt is so kind to me..."
"Little girl, you have a sweet mouth."
There was suddenly one more person in Lan Garden. Yun Qiao couldn't adapt to it at first, but gradually, she found that it was not bad.
Yuan Jie'er is very diligent and also keeps a distance. She never takes the initiative to go to Yun Qiao's bedroom, nor does she act rashly. Instead, she follows the servants in Lan Garden very obediently, either helping to water or cut flowers.
