Ever since the Weibo incident that day, Zhong Manhua has been feeling a sense of guilt.
She was wrong to conclude that Ying Zijin seduced Jiang Moyuan without finding out the facts.
But as an elder, there is absolutely no reason for her to apologize to the younger generation.
So Zhong Manhua thought about making up for it in other ways. She even planned to postpone an order from the company and accompany Ying Zijin to buy new clothes.
But Ying Zijin disappeared for four days without even saying hello, leaving her alone.
Which rich girl would give her parents the cold shoulder?
Zhong Manhua was extremely angry.
The other lady on the sofa also looked over, glanced briefly, and then looked away, showing no interest at all.
Zhong Manhua naturally noticed it, clenched her fingers, and said coldly: "Go out and wait first."
"I have always had a question in my mind." Ying Zijin nodded slightly and said calmly, "Why can you be a mother?"
“…”
There was a moment of silence in the living room, and the lady couldn't help but look at the girl again.
When I saw it, I was stunned for a moment because of that face.
But that’s all, it’s more of a scrutiny.
Zhong Manhua had never expected to hear such a sentence, and her eyes turned red with anger: "Say it again?!"
The girl ignored him, with a cold expression that said "I'm being polite by not hitting you" and went upstairs carrying the books.
"You..." Zhong Manhua held her breath, unable to go up or down.
She covered her chest, feeling uncomfortable with the tightness in her chest.
It's like this again, and he humiliates her in front of outsiders. It's true that he is designed to harm her.
She really can't control it!
But the distinguished guest was still here, Zhong Manhua couldn't lose her composure, she quickly regained her composure and forced a smile: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Madam Mu."
"Is this the one your Ying family adopted a year ago?" Madam Mu frowned. "Manhua, what are you thinking? Why are you deliberately making trouble for your own daughter?"
Moreover, he adopted someone who looked like him.
Although that face is unmatched by any of the famous ladies in the capital.
But no matter how good it is, it is still a fake.
Zhong Manhua did not explain: "When people reach middle age, they always want to do some good deeds."
At this moment, she was glad that outsiders didn't know that Ying Zijin was her biological daughter.
"Good deeds should be done according to the people. Some people are not worthy of your charity." Madam Mu blew on the tea. "Besides, you are too indulgent to her. How dare she talk to you like that?"
In a wealthy family, an illegitimate child is already considered shameful, but at least there is a blood relationship, an adopted daughter?
Tsk.
Madam Mu shook her head and continued, "If you ask me, you can't spoil a child who is not your own. If you spoil him/her, he/she might get into a big trouble one day. How will it end?"
"Don't pay attention to her." Zhong Manhua smiled, "Don't worry, I have already contacted the Zhong family. When Chen Zhou arrives, he will be able to stay there. There won't be any problems."
The Zhong family is also one of the four largest families in Shanghai, so they naturally have a solid foundation.
"I'm naturally confident that you can handle the matter." Madam Mu really didn't mention it again, "Manhua, I actually didn't plan to come in person this time, but my old man said for some reason that he would stay in Shanghai for a few more days."
"Well, everyone in the family is worried, so I came here to pick up the old man, and I came to see you by the way."
Zhong Manhua was surprised: "Mr. Mu actually came to Shanghai?"
The name Mu Heqing is well-known not only in the imperial capital Shanghai, but also in the whole of China.
The Mu family is a family of generals, and when Mu Heqing was young, he also fought on a real battlefield.
Even though he has retired for decades, his prestige has not diminished in the slightest.
"The old man has been a soldier all his life, used to fighting and killing, and he can't rest even when he's old." Madam Mu sighed, "It's because he heard that a rare antique appeared in Shanghai, so he hurried here."
Zhong Manhua nodded: "No wonder, I heard a while ago that Mr. Mu went down the mountain to Ozhou specifically for a piece of Yuan blue and white Guigu."
"Really?" Madam Mu said, "It's just that the old man has a bad heart, and he didn't bring a doctor with him this time. It would be terrible if he got sick."
"I understand. Our old lady is in poor health and has to be careful when she goes out."
"Yes, fortunately, the old man met a miracle doctor in Shanghai, otherwise he might have confessed."
Mrs. Mu was very grateful.
If Mu Heqing went, the Mu family would suffer a huge loss.
Moreover, the heir of the Mu family has not yet been decided, and Mu Heqing is the one in charge.
"A miracle doctor?" Zhong Manhua was stunned. "Who is it?"
Could it be that there is a new person in Shanghai?
How come she hasn't heard of it?
"The old man didn't say." Madam Mu took a sip of tea, "But even if he did, we probably wouldn't know him. I just heard from Mu Cheng that this genius doctor's medical skills are better than the youngest one in the Meng family..."
She gestured and paused: "It has to be higher."
Zhong Manhua was surprised: "Is it really that magical?"
"No one knows, I haven't seen him." Madam Mu put down her teacup and stood up. "Manhua, I'll leave first. Call me if you have anything."
Zhong Manhua also stood up and saw her out.
After Madam Mu left, the housekeeper came in from the yard: "Madam, I'm sorry, I couldn't stop the second young lady."
"It's not your fault." Zhong Manhua's expression turned cold again. "Don't bother her anymore. Let her do whatever she wants. Sooner or later, she will regret it."
"If she gets into trouble, the Ying family will have to clean up the mess for her."
If she wasn't her biological daughter, she wouldn't have taken the trouble to prepare the room.
After training for so long, she still hasn’t been trained to be a celebrity.
The butler hesitated and did not mention the word he had seen on the box earlier.
Maybe he saw it wrong, or maybe it was just a coincidence.
Come to think of it, the Second Miss has only been in Shanghai for a year and had been living in Qingshui County before. In such a small place, it is impossible for her to come into contact with a higher level.
Zhong Manhua massaged her solar plexus to calm her anger, and then gave a faint order: "Send someone to inquire about the miracle doctor that Madam Mu mentioned. It would be best if she could ask him to treat the old lady's chronic headache."
After a pause, he reminded: "Money is not a problem, you must be respectful."
The butler understood and retreated.
——
Third floor.
After Ying Zijin placed the box of children's books on the bookshelf, he sat in front of the computer.
She turned on the console skillfully, leaned back in her chair, and started watching the online drama that she hadn't finished that day.
This new type of retirement life is just right for her.
There was no need for fighting and killing, and there weren't so many worries. She had no intention of letting those people know that she was back.
After all, she does have a lot of enemies.
She has a lot of free time to study the new technologies of the 21st century, and these new things are quite interesting.
After finishing a cup of milk tea, Ying Zijin went to get another one.
"drop!"
The computer suddenly made a sound, and the picture froze on the heroine in the play kicking the hero into the pond, then standing with her hands on her hips and laughing wildly.
Ying Zijin raised her head, looked at the black computer, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
