Chapter 1735

The one who spoke was Zheng Qiaoer. She came prepared to adopt a daughter today, with gifts, paperwork, and a middleman ready.

She did not ask Chi Shuang for her opinion. Because if she asked, "How about I take you as my daughter?", with the stubborn and cold temperament of the girl, she would definitely respond, "Madam, I appreciate your kindness, but Chi Shuang is too high to marry me."

Or, "Madam, you don't have to pity me."

Zheng Qiaoer couldn't give the other party a chance to refuse. Moreover, she really wanted to recognize this daughter, not really to atone for Tang Xinghe's sins.

If Chi Shuang had a bad character, she would at most give her some money to help her get by. But she saw that this girl was upright and honest, and she was neither humble nor arrogant, so she became interested.

Before coming, she had discussed it with her husband and two sons, and only after getting the approval of the whole family did she bring up the matter.

Chi Shuang came out hurriedly and was grabbed by Zheng Qiaoer.

"Shuang'er, let me tell you. I've given birth to three sons in my life, and I just need a daughter." Zheng Qiao'er was naturally kind, and she looked indescribably happy when she laughed, "If you could be my daughter, I would wake up laughing in the middle of the night."

Chi Shuang was stunned. How could a girl who had been regarded as unlucky by her grandmother and aunt and ostracized by her cousins since she was young have ever been treated so warmly?

Zheng Qiao'er took off the mutton-fat jade bracelet from her wrist without saying anything and put it on her wrist, anxiously, fearing that someone would snatch it from her. "The formal ceremony will be held in a few days, let's first determine the status today."

Chi Shuang was stunned and at a loss.

She had seen Zheng Qiaoer in front of the mourning hall before and knew that she was the mistress of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion and the mother of the Vanguard Envoy.

Chi Shuang's ears turned red with burning sensation, and just as she was about to decline, "Madam, you don't have to pity me," she was interrupted.

Qin Fangfei pushed Zheng Qiao'er and said, "Be more reserved and don't scare Shuang'er. Look at how red her little face is."

The words that Chi Shuang was about to say were stuck in her mouth.

Yu Sujun's eyes were still bruised from staying up late, but she smiled so hard that fine lines appeared on the corners of her eyes. She waved behind her and said, "Come on, come on, you two little ones, come over here first to get to know each other and meet Sister Shuang'er."

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in a moon-white gown stepped forward.

His eyes were bright, and the ink stains on his sleeves were faintly visible when he was performing the ceremony. His voice was as clear and melodious as the sound of jade chimes striking each other, "Yunzhou greets Sister Shuang'er."

Then, a little girl in a pink shirt came over with a puppy.

The puppy barked twice, and she quickly held its head down, but she herself smiled with dimples, "Changan, stop making trouble! Anxue meets Sister Shuang'er."

Chi Shuang has never had any close friends in his life. He doesn't even have the energy to worry about making a living, so how can he have the time to make friends?

She unconsciously twisted the corner of her clothes with her fingertips. She was at a loss and timid, and didn't even have time to respond.

Because there were too many people, they introduced themselves one by one: Qiu Hongyan, Hongque, Beihui, Dongli, Nanyan, Mulan, Tang Chuyue, Mingzhao...

Some introduced themselves as the princess's maids. The princess replied, "No, they are my sisters."

Some are about someone's sister-in-law and someone's daughter-in-law.

Then Zheng Qiaoer pointed at a group of older women and introduced them, "This is your Aunt Qin, Aunt Mo, Aunt Yao, Aunt Yu, Tang...Oh, you can't call her Aunt, you have to call her Great Aunt."

One unfamiliar name after another accompanied by smiling faces came to Chi Shuang's mind, and her ears were buzzing.

Chi Shuang was dazzled and could only see a blurry figure in front of her.

She stood there hesitantly, her fingertips wrapped in Zheng Qiaoer's warm palm.

Suddenly, I felt the laughter coming one after another, like a stream suddenly rising in spring, about to overflow the bluestone steps and spill out of the door.

Chi Shuang turned her head and met Zheng Qiaoer's gentle smile.

She wanted to cry. She thought of her mother, Huo Qingqing.

The mother also laughed like this. After just a moment, she became addicted.
