The noble lady who sent Su Yinyue here was actually a maid in the Marquis's mansion?

It is not uncommon for maids in a marquis's mansion to wear gold and silver, but can a maid have other maids to serve her?

Zhu didn't dare to think about it anymore, for fear of being involved in the struggle in the backyard of the marquis's mansion.

Su Yinyue didn’t know what happened eighteen years ago, and the original owner had no memories of her infancy, but her intuition told her that this matter was not simple.

The butler said that the Marquis was heartbroken and had been searching for his biological daughter for more than ten years, so how come now that he had found his biological daughter, he sent a butler to pick her up, while the Marquis himself did not show up?

Also, she was stolen out by a maid in the Marquis' Mansion and fostered in the Lin family. The maid was so kind as to give the Lin family one hundred taels of silver?

Could it be that something happened in the Marquis's mansion, and they just found an orphan to adopt as their daughter so that they can take the blame?

The housekeeper followed Zhu's line of sight and saw Su Yinyue. He smiled and stood in front of her. "May I ask your name, young lady?"

"Li Xiaocui."

Su Yinyue didn't want to get involved in the muddy water of Yongning Marquis' Mansion, so she made up a name.

The housekeeper was stunned and looked at Zhu blankly, "Didn't you just say that she was the Marquis' daughter?"

"This little bitch...she lied to you!"

Zhu didn't know what she was thinking of, and she said excitedly, "Her name is Su Yinyue!"

The housekeeper clapped his hands and said happily, "The Marquis happens to have the surname Su! According to Aunt Yan, the night the second young lady was born, the bright moon happened to be hidden behind the clouds, so she was named Yinyue."

Su Yinyue's eyebrows jumped, "I was born by my aunt?"

"Correct."

The housekeeper bowed again, "Second Miss, please get on the carriage and follow me back to the Marquis' Mansion! The Marquis, his wife, and your biological mother are all waiting at the mansion."

"Why didn't my mother come?"

The housekeeper explained in a good-tempered manner, "Aunt Yan is a woman in the back house. She cannot show up casually to avoid being bumped into by outside men."

Su Yinyue walked forward and pushed open the small wooden door of the carriage, only to find that there was no one inside.

"Why did the Marquis' Mansion send you and the groom to pick me up?"

She said jokingly, "I'm not married, not a woman in the harem, so I'm not afraid of being bumped into by men from other places?"

"Uh……"

The butler choked and didn't know how to answer.

At the same time, his contempt for Su Yinyue also faded a little. This second young lady is not easy to fool.

Su Yinyue walked around the housekeeper and headed out of the village. "There are many people with the last name Su in the world. I am not the second daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. I just happen to have the same name as you."

"She is! She is!"

Zhu forgot about her leg injury and rushed back to the main room. When she reappeared, she was holding a piece of lotus pink cloth embroidered with little rabbits.

"This is the swaddling clothes I used to wrap Su Yinyue when I adopted her!"

Zhu pointed at the word on the upper left corner of the cloth and asked excitedly, "Is this word Su?"

"Yes, yes, yes, this word was embroidered by Aunt Yan herself!"

The housekeeper took out a handkerchief from his bosom and compared the words on it. "Look, the word Su on the cloth is exactly the same as the handkerchief Aunt Yan gave me to identify people before I left."

"Second Miss, please come back with me. Aunt Yan only has you as her daughter. She will be very happy to see you!"

Su Yinyue was about to continue to refuse, but her body suddenly stiffened and she felt like she was out of control.

What’s going on? Could it be that the original owner’s soul hasn’t disappeared yet?

"Go back, go back to see mother..."

"Su Yinyue" opened her lips slightly, her voice as soft as a mosquito.

The housekeeper looked puzzled, "Second Miss, what are you talking about? I didn't hear you clearly."

After a moment of distraction, Su Yinyue regained control of her body and said calmly, "I'm going back to Yongning Marquis Mansion."

Yes, today is exactly seven days since the original owner passed away.

If there is a last wish, today is the day when awareness is at its peak.

The original owner had never felt the love of family. Once he learned that his parents were coming, he wanted to go back at all costs.

Su Yinyue got on the carriage and said silently: Since it is your wish to go back home to visit your mother, I will help you achieve it. If your parents treat you sincerely, I will also support them for you.

Seeing that the housekeeper was still standing there in a daze, Su Yinyue raised an eyebrow, "Are you not leaving yet?"

"Good good!"

The butler quickly called the groom.

Seeing the three people leave, Zhu became anxious and stopped in front of the carriage, "You are just leaving like this?"

"I raised Su Yinyue for eighteen years, and the Marquis wants me to raise a daughter for nothing?"

Aside from letting her adoptive mother live in the Marquis's mansion and enjoy a good life, she should at least give him some reward, right?

If a little bit of money leaked out from between the Marquis' fingers, it would be enough for her to have food and clothing for the rest of her life.

If it weren't for the reward from the Marquis, she wouldn't have dug out the swaddling clothes and actively proved Su Yinyue's identity.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Before leaving the Marquis' Mansion, the housekeeper naturally took the silver, but Su Yinyue seemed unwilling to go back, and he only thought about organizing words to persuade her to go back, but she suddenly changed her mind and got on the carriage.

After all this time, the housekeeper forgot about it.

"This is a hundred taels of silver."

The housekeeper took out the banknotes and said, "Madam said she was grateful for your raising the Second Miss. This money will be used as a payment to buy off your kindness in raising the Second Miss."

The implication was that after receiving the money, you were not allowed to visit Su Yinyue at the Marquis' Mansion in the future, and it would be as if you had never seen her.

When Zhu saw the silver note worth one hundred taels, her eyes almost popped out of her head and she was so surprised that she couldn't even speak clearly.

He rubbed his hands vigorously and tried to take the banknote with trembling hands.

At this moment, a hand stretched out from behind the butler and pulled the banknote out of his hand.

Su Yinyue stuffed the banknote into her pocket and said, "You treated me as a farmhand and abused me for more than ten years. You would feel guilty if you took this hundred taels. I will bear it for you."

The money she had earned was gone, and Zhu went crazy, pointing at Su Yinyue's nose and starting to scold her.

"That's the banknote the Marquis gave me! Give it to me now! You little bitch, you have a short life, can you afford a hundred taels of silver? You idiot, give it back to me now!"

As he said this, he reached out to grab it.

Su Yinyue kicked her to the ground and said, "Get out of here!"

He stepped back into the carriage with a high leg, grabbed the teacup on the small table, and smashed it on the head of Zhu who was rushing towards him.

"boom!"

Zhu fell down immediately.

Su Yinyue slammed the wooden door of the carriage shut, and the clear sound could be heard outside.

"Butler, drive!"

The housekeeper looked at Zhu who had fallen to the ground, and felt sympathetic. He turned around and quickly got on the carriage, not forgetting to give the coachman a look, asking him to hurry up.

"drive!"

"Don't go! That's my banknote! My banknote!"

Zhu dragged her injured leg and stumbled after the carriage.

Unfortunately, my legs were weak and I could only watch the carriage go farther and farther away.

Finally, he sat on the ground, holding his legs and cursing until dark.

-

Yongninghou Mansion.

The butler sent Su Yinyue to the second entrance.

Pointing to the maid who came out to greet her, she said, "Second Miss, I cannot enter the backyard without your instructions. Next, you will follow this Aunt Yan Xi to pay your respects to the Madam."

"Her name is Yan Xi?"

Su Yinyue was stunned and looked at the housekeeper, "You just said that eighteen years ago a maid named Yan Xi took me away and threw me away. Are these two Yan Xis the same person?"
