Marry a Duke

Yuchi Xinxin, who was crying nearby, trembled.

Yuchi Sui thought she was still afraid.

"Okay, let Xinxin go back to her room to rest." He asked the maid to send Yuchi Xinxin back to her room first.

There are many guests today, and even the maids brought by the Shen family went to the front to help.

But who would have thought that something like this would happen.

If they had known that things would develop to this point, they would not have held the banquet and would have simply left the capital, and nothing would have happened.

Shen Fengan's health had never been good to begin with, and after experiencing such an incident, she felt weak and powerless.

"My Lord, you should go too. Go find Huanhuan. Huanhuan must be blaming us. We have finally found our daughter. We cannot hurt her feelings. What if she doesn't recognize us?"

Shen Fengan could not accept such consequences.

She begged and pleaded for her biological daughter to be born so that she could recognize her.

She did not help Xinxin, but the situation was special at the time, and it was normal for her to hesitate, for fear of hurting Huanhuan's feelings.

Shen Fengan burst into tears.

"My Lord, when Huanhuan was lost, my heart was dead. For so many years, Xinxin was raised in the Yuchi family. We never lacked her materially, and we never let her down emotionally. But we are not worthy of Huanhuan. For so many years, we gave her nothing. We gave birth to her, but we didn't raise her or accompany her."

“This is wrong.”

How could Yuchi Sui not know what his wife felt?

"I know. After all, Xinxin has been raised by us for more than ten years. She has always called us dad and mom, and we have raised her as our own daughter. But if Huanhuan minds——"

Yuchi Sui hesitated slightly.

It wasn’t my wife who wanted to adopt Xinxin in the first place.

It's his decision.

The wife has always hoped to find her biological daughter.

"Now that this has happened, Xinxin is going to marry Shen Yan, and Huanhuan is going back to Xuzhou with us."

"But she has already married Wei Xuan, and she wants to stay in the capital. What do you think? Should we move to the capital?"

Yuchi Sui hesitated slightly.

It's not impossible.

Although their family businesses are all in Xuzhou, there are members of the Yuchi family in Xuzhou. Mingxiu is the young marquis of Chenyuan Marquis's Mansion, so he can stay in Xuzhou to take charge.

But everything is still uncertain now.

"If you want to stay in the capital, we will buy a house in the capital, closer to Huanhuan, so that you can see her from time to time."

Shen Fengan nodded.

Yuchi Sui wiped the tears from her face.

I couldn't bear to see her cry.

"Go quickly and find Huanhuan and explain everything to her. She's still angry, and you can't let her get sick from it."

"Okay." Yuchi Sui asked his wife to have a good rest.

Lady Shen Guogong also took Shen Yan back with her.

The next step is to prepare to marry Yuchi Xinxin.

No matter who was behind the drugging, the mistake had been made and Shen Yan could not shirk responsibility.

But after searching for half a day until dark, they still couldn't find Fu Ran and Wu You.

They seemed to be lost in the vast crowd of the capital.

She did not return to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion.

There aren't many places she can go in the capital.

It is impossible to go to the Princess's Mansion. I might even lose my life if I go there.

The only one left is the Duke of Wei’s Mansion.

Apart from that, there are not many people she can talk to.

But Wei Xuan still sent people to look for Mingyue, but she did not go.

We searched all the major inns in the capital, but still couldn't find them.

In fact, Fu Ran changed his makeup that night and rented a house to live in.

Dong Niang is on good terms with her sisters.

They claimed the child was Dong Niang's. After all, Dong Niang was breastfeeding, so the people who took them in believed it.

Fu Ran claimed that she was unmarried. She was now dressed like an unmarried woman, with an ordinary appearance, and looked like someone you would never remember even if you looked at her again and again.

Dong Niang said that the child's father died unexpectedly, and her in-laws could not tolerate her giving birth to a daughter, so they drove them out.

My sister came to take them back to her parents' home.

My mother's home is thirty miles outside the city.

They only stayed here for one night.

The family that took them in was a carpenter's family.

The head of the family went out of town to help others with work and did not return until two days later.

There was only one woman in the family, about thirty years old.

They have a son and a daughter. The daughter is about twelve or thirteen years old, and the son is about ten years old.

They are all very simple, and I like them very much when I see Wuyou.

The next morning.

Fu Ran took Dong Niang and Wu You and was about to leave.

The woman went to buy groceries and heard some rumors from outside.

"I heard that the wife of Duke Weiguo is missing, and Duke Weiguo is looking for them all over the city now."

The woman did not suspect Fu Ran and Dong Niang.

Dong Niang is just an ordinary woman and doesn't look like a noble person at all.

Wuyou, on the other hand, looked pink and tender, very likable.

"Why did she run away? As the wife of Duke Weiguo, you have such a high status that you should just enjoy the life in the mansion. But she is so foolish as to run away. I think she must be throwing a tantrum." Fu Ran said.

When the woman heard this, she thought it made a lot of sense.

Yes, the wife of Duke Weiguo has such a noble status, who wouldn’t want her?

It must be a small fight.

Fu Ran took Dong Niang and left through a small path, went to find Xiao Liuzi under the overpass, and asked Xiao Liuzi to deliver a letter to A Lin.

During this period, Fu Ran, Dong Niang and Wu You hid under the overpass.

With Xiao Liuzi's care, no one made things difficult for them.

Waited for most of the day.

Xiao Liuzi brought Alin over.

Alin didn't recognize them when he saw them for the first time.

"Alin, it's me."

"Fu Ran - Madam." He immediately changed the date and said in surprise: "It's really you. I didn't quite believe what the boy said just now. Now the Duke has sent people to look for you everywhere. Why don't you go back?"

"I'm not going back. Please tell Cheng Jiang a message for me. Also, everyone in the mansion is looking for me outside now. The guards in the mansion are not that strict. Please go and get me something."

She briefly told Alin her plan.

She had long wanted to leave.

Alin had seen the suffering she had gone through from the beginning.

It’s not easy to survive till now.

It is not easy to make a living in the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion.

"We make a living anywhere, not necessarily in Beijing. If you stay in Beijing for too long, you will get bored. Don't worry, Cheng Jiang will definitely be willing to go with you. I'll go back and tell him."

"Wait--." Fu Ran pulled him back.

Is he a little too impatient?

She hasn't finished speaking yet.

"Ah Lin, don't be in a hurry. If you don't come with me, Cheng Jiang's injury hasn't fully healed yet. It will be bad for him if we leave now. Wuyou, the nanny and I will leave the city first. We will wait for you in a town thirty miles outside the city. I will mark the way along the way. If you are careful, you will definitely find it."

Alin thought that Cheng Jiang's condition was indeed not very good.

"Are you really going to leave the capital without telling the Duke? If he wants to find you, he will definitely find you. You can't hide."

Fu Ran chuckled and shook his head.

"The reason why I didn't leave before was because I had too many concerns. I kept putting it off day after day, and in the end I couldn't leave. Now, I don't want to put it off anymore."

Alin looked at her and asked no more questions.

"Okay, wait a minute. I'll go back and get your things. Let Xiao Liuzi go with me."
