Noble Lady

Chapter 52: Unrealistic Delusion

"Big girl, the big girl is back!"

Xue Chenyu was brought back to his senses by a familiar voice.

Xue Fu, the doorman, saw that it was the He Mansion's carriage parked in front of the door and hurried to greet it.

He's already a grandfather, but he's shouting like a kid who's had candy, wishing everyone could hear him.

He quickly patted his grandson and said, "Hurry, hurry, go and inform the Madam and the Young Master, the eldest daughter is back!"

After saying that, he hurried forward to help carry things.

Xue Chenyu was afraid of tiring the old man out with all the busy work.

"Uncle Fu, don't bother. These girls of mine can get it themselves."

"What are you talking about, Miss? I'm doing heavy work in our mansion, how can I let a few young ladies take away my work?"

As he spoke, he picked up a large box and walked in easily.

Two days ago, the eldest daughter sent a message back. Upon hearing that she was going back home, everyone in the mansion had already packed up.

The happiest person was the Marquis' wife.

Her pampered daughter got married, but within a few days she seemed to have forgotten her mother.

The number of times I came back to see her in half a year can be counted on one hand.

Last time, she sent someone to deliver something over. She was really angry.

Is the family still missing these little things from her? Her return is more important than anything else.

Fortunately, this girl finally got it.

So the entire mansion was cleaned in a very grand manner.

So, when Xue Chenyu followed Xue Fu home, what she saw was this joyous scene.

"The eldest girl is back?"

"The big girl is back!"

Wherever they went, all the servants were very excited.

If you don’t know, you might think it’s the New Year or that some important person is visiting.

Mrs. Xue woke up early in the morning, washed and dressed, and then waited.

As a result, I waited for half a day before it was just noon.

Waiting and looking forward to when my daughter will come back.

She was dozing off listlessly when she heard the doorman come to announce that the eldest girl had returned home, and she ran out holding up her skirt.

Mother and daughter met in the courtyard.

Mrs. Xue, who came hurriedly in a gorgeous dress, took one look at her daughter and her face immediately darkened.

"You heartless girl, you finally remembered to go home to see your mother."

"Mom..." Xue Chenyu's eyes were red, and she couldn't hold back her tears as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Did the He family bully you by relying on their reputation as a noble family? Mother will seek justice for you!" As soon as she shed these two tears, Mrs. Xue no longer cared about making a fuss with her daughter. She grabbed her wrist and rushed out in big strides.

"No, no, it's not."

Xue Chenyu quickly wiped away her tears and said, "I just miss you guys."

Mrs. Xue's heart rose in her chest, and then fell again.

...This girl almost scared me to death. I thought something big had happened.

"Come on, go on, go home, go home, mom will make you something delicious."

Then he told the two mothers beside him to bring all the food and drinks that they had prepared.

"Mom, why don't I see Luoluo and Xue Xiaohuai?"

Xue Chenyu looked left and right but couldn't see her younger brothers and sisters.

Mrs. Xue couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Xue Luoyan said she had a surprise for you, and Xue Huai said he was going to help. They were so secretive and didn't let me know. Who knows what those two little guys are up to?"

Although she rolled her eyes, she was still quite proud that the two little ones still cared about their sister.

Everyone thinks that only sons can carry on the family line, but she doesn't think so. Her baby Yu'er is the best baby in the world. He is smart and sensible, and has a business mind. He can perfectly inherit her mantle.

And even if she doesn't do a good job, the most she can do is lose some money and hire a few shopkeepers to look after the shop, so she won't starve to death.

But Xue Huai is a stubborn guy. His identity means he is bound to get into trouble.

No matter how well he does in the future, he will be just like his father. If he doesn't do well, she would be very lucky if he could be a good playboy and not bring trouble to the family.

As for Luoluo, she is her youngest baby. With her sister's support, she doesn't need to worry about so much and just needs to be happy.

Thinking about it this way, she still felt that her son was useless.

"Yu'er, Xue Xiaohuai doesn't listen to anyone but you. Please give him some advice. Don't let him be led astray by those bad people." Mrs. Xue was worried as a mother.

"We don't expect him to achieve much, nor do we need him to talk about bringing honor to our family every day. If he doesn't bring disaster home, the ancestral graves of the Xue family and our Jiang family will be filled with smoke."

Xue Chenyu: “…”

Suddenly I didn’t know how to respond to my mother’s words.

If mother knew that in the previous life it was Xue Huai who was deceived by He Minzhi, causing the Marquis' Mansion to collapse overnight, she would probably want to send Xue Xiaohuai back right now.

"Mom, what if... I mean what if, if Xue Huai gets deceived and does something that harms the family, what will you do?"

"Kick him out of the house and expel him from the family tree. You have to take responsibility for your own actions and don't bring harm to your family." Mrs. Xue blurted out without thinking.

After a pause, he added, "If he really does something that brings trouble to the family, I won't let him go even if I become a ghost! I knew giving birth to a son was unreliable. If I had known earlier, I might as well have laid an egg."

This is really her biological mother.

"..." Xue Chenyu gave an awkward but polite smile.

The original uneasy mood also disappeared for the most part.

Xue Chenyu always felt that her mother was different from all the women in the world.

A mother doesn't think that only sons can carry on the family line, but instead thinks that daughters are as precious as pearls.

Thinking about it carefully, what my mother often said was: "Those people are stupid. Based on the experience of human continuation over thousands of years, only daughters can truly continue the family bloodline."

"What's a son? He's a pig's hoof! If he does well, he may not bring honor to the family, but if he does badly, he may destroy the family."

Although she didn't understand how her mother came up with the "summary of human continuation experience over thousands of years", what she said must make sense.

"Mom, Xue Xiaohuai is just a little stubborn. He responds softly but not harshly. Why don't you just try to be more accommodating to him verbally?"

"Does he deserve it? I don't know where he learned this from. This little kid doesn't even know how to live, but he keeps shouting about bringing honor to his family."

"If he didn't have the status of a young master of a marquisate, it would be hard for him to survive as an ordinary person. Where would such great ambitions come from?"

Mrs. Xue wanted to roll her eyes again, but she held back for the sake of her image.

Something that can be traced is called a dream, and something that is unrealistic is called a delusion.

If the kid couldn't tell the difference, how could she not tell the difference? It's easy to think that if you haven't been beaten by society.

Xue Chenyu felt a bit of a headache, "Why does mother always think that Xue Xiaohuai will cause trouble and bring trouble to the family?"

Although it was indeed the same in the previous life.

When they arrived at the main hall, Mrs. Xue was not in a hurry to answer her questions.

He took Xue Chenyu's hand and walked in, and had someone bring out a dozen snacks in large portions.

This grand celebration is no less grand than the Chinese New Year.
