Meet the Marquis’ wife
In fact, Mingyue had also thought about this.
It's easier said than done.
Firstly, the marquis’ wife lived in a large mansion like the Dingyuan Marquis’ Mansion, and it was not something that ordinary people could see whenever they wanted.
Secondly, Mingyue didn't know what the Marquis's attitude would be towards her own daughter, and whether she would acknowledge her identity? So it was just a thought!
Now, hearing what Murong Zhen said, Mingyue's heart was slightly moved.
Because Mingyue was very sure that the original owner must have wanted someone who truly missed her, and it would be perfect if that person was her biological mother.
She would not complain that the Marquis's wife was late. She would only be happy that it turned out that Liu Wan'er did not like her only because she was not Liu Wan'er's biological child, not because she was not worthy of being liked.
The original owner, who had a timid personality, actually had the softest heart.
But after a moment's hesitation, Mingyue nodded and said sincerely, "If it is true as you said, then I would like to meet the Marquis's wife."
Murong Zhen smiled and said, "Well, I'll make the arrangements right away. You just wait for good news."
Mingyue thanked him again gratefully.
"No need to be so polite. I've heard about your abilities from Achen. You'll need to keep an eye on the storms in the capital in the future." Murong Zhen waved his hand.
Mingyue said solemnly: "I will do my best."
In fact, Murong Zhen had intentionally arranged for Mingyue to meet the wife of Marquis Dingyuan, hoping to kill two birds with one stone.
Apart from the feelings of his subordinate An Mingyue, he knew how much the Marquis' wife valued her daughter, and he also knew that the Marquis' wife's family was not easy to mess with. If the Marquis' wife knew what Marquis Dingyuan had done to Mingyue, Marquis Dingyuan's backyard would probably be on fire.
Of course, Murong Zhen didn't know at this time that the fire started by the Marquis's wife was much bigger than he had imagined.
Then the two of them talked about some things in the shop, especially the issue of how to gather intelligence, and focused on the discussion for a while.
When the two had nothing more to say, they quickly dispersed.
Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Because Huihuang Pavilion has always been quick in its work and has a great reputation outside, when Marquis Dingyuan knew that Huihuang Pavilion had taken the order, he thought that the matter was foolproof.
The knife hanging over his head finally disappeared, and Marquis Dingyuan felt a little relieved. He was even in the mood to paint in the study.
Liu Shangzhi was even more delighted, thinking that no one could stop his nephew's success.
But thinking of this, Liu Shangzhi also thought that he had to inform Chen Xiucai about this matter, and asked him and his sister to keep their mouths shut and not to speak out of turn.
Of course, at this time, Liu Shangzhi did not know that Chen Xiucai and his wife had already joined the Zhou family and went to the cold kiln to mine.
They both had a good time for a few days, but things did not go as they wished.
Five or six days had passed, and Marquis Dingyuan and Liu Shangzhi had not received any good news from Huihuang Pavilion. Instead, they heard from the servants who were sent to the shop on the street to inquire about the news that Chen Mingyue was still alive and well, and went to the shop to supervise every day.
Marquis Dingyuan was so furious that he tore up the landscape painting he had drawn a few days ago. He also cursed Huihuang Pavilion for taking the money and not doing the job, and cursed Chen Mingyue for being a disaster for thousands of years.
Liu Shangzhi was also very angry, but he didn't think it was the problem of Huihuang Pavilion, after all, it was so famous. He thought that the staff that day had embezzled money, so he had to go again. Just when Liu Shangzhi was going to Huihuang Pavilion again, the Marquis's wife left the house with Steward Du and two trusted maids, looking very excited.
On this day, Mingyue did not go to the shop to supervise the work. Instead, she put on a new set of clothes, dressed herself up nicely, and went to the largest tea shop on East Street.
Not long after, someone knocked on the door of the private room.
Mingyue took a deep breath and said, "Please come in."
The marquis's wife, who was standing at the door, took a deep breath and subconsciously clenched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand. She waited for a long time but did not dare to step into the private room, for fear that her wish would be in vain.
Mingyue didn't hear any sound. After thinking for a while, she stood up and walked towards the door.
At this time, one pushed the door and the other opened it.
Then the mother and daughter met each other and their eyes met.
Mingyue only saw that the marquis's wife in front of her had bright eyes and a pure and elegant appearance. It seemed that age had been particularly favorable to her and had not left too many traces on her face. Instead, she had a pure and elegant temperament, as if it came from her bones, giving her even more charm of a mature woman.
But when the Marquis's wife's gaze fell on Mingyue's face, her eyes began to turn red, mist quickly gathered in her eyes, and her lips began to tremble slightly.
This is her daughter, this is her daughter, the Marquis's wife was extremely sure.
She didn't dare to blink, for fear that her daughter would disappear if she did.
But as she watched, she couldn't help but shed tears, and she felt timid, wanting to get closer but not being able to.
It was Mingyue who came back to her senses first. She smiled at her and said, "Madam, please come in and sit down."
The marquis's wife finally reacted, and quickly said "yeah" and followed him inside.
The two had just sat down when the Marquis's wife's gaze was fixed on Mingyue's face again. She felt that more than twenty years of time had been missed, and she could never see enough of her.
When Mingyue saw her true feelings, she felt sorry for her and the original owner. Both mother and daughter had met the wrong person!
But this is nothing, she needs to take another look at this marquis's wife.
It was only after a long time that Mrs. Hou realized that she had been too impolite. She actually had a lot of things to ask her daughter, and she wanted to bring her daughter home to make amends. She knew that she had a granddaughter, and she wanted to see her granddaughter.
But she had a lot to say and now she didn't know where to start.
Finally, it was Mingyue who spoke up: "Actually, I just want to ask Madam to come over. I have something to ask you."
The Marquis's wife then realized that her daughter had always called her Madam, and it was such an unfamiliar name.
"You don't have to be so polite, Mingyue, can I call you Mingyue?" Madam Hou pursed her lips, endured the pain in her heart, and said, "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask. As long as mother, as long as I know, I will tell you everything."
Mingyue raised her lips when she heard that, and said without further ado: "Actually, I want to ask Madam, do you know how I offended Marquis Dingyuan, and why he hated me so much that he even sent someone to hire assassins from the Brilliant Pavilion to deal with me? If I hadn't been lucky, I would have lost my life long ago."
The Marquis's wife's face froze in an instant, and her heart turned cold.
