Chapter 522
Nan Zhen paused as she wiped the blade, "Why?"

"Because the master and wife don't pay much attention to it."

Dongyue sighed, her eyes were a little confused, as if it was so long ago that it was a matter of her previous life.

"Miss was still looking forward to her birthday when she was young. The master and wife would prepare gifts for her and take her out to play. But as the eldest son and second lady grew up, the master and wife focused on them. Sometimes I even forget the date of Miss’s birthday.”

"I was full of expectations but failed again and again. As time passed, she didn't mention it anymore, and I wasn't even allowed to mention it, but I know that she still has hope in her heart."

Dongyue curled her lips, "Oh, by the way, there were actually a few times when the master remembered Miss's birthday and asked his wife to arrange it for her, but the second Miss was always feeling uncomfortable that day, either with a headache or a stomachache. It's the protagonist, but once this happens, everyone's attention will be on the second young lady, who remembers the person whose birthday it was?"

"Even the prepared gifts are just sent by the maids. Although they are exquisite, they always feel cold and emotionless."

"Miss doesn't really care about any gifts, she just wants Mrs. Madam to pay more attention to her, so she shows an arrogant and indulgent appearance."

"But Madam, you can also see that Madam not only doesn't pay attention to this, but thinks Miss is ignorant and always scolds her fiercely."

"Sometimes I wonder how the same daughter is treated so differently..."

Nan Zhen put the sword back into its sheath, looked at Dongyue who was full of doubts, and asked calmly, "Are you sure your young lady is your own?"

Dongyue was taken aback for a moment, then was dazed for two seconds, "What does your empress mean?"

"It's just a normal suspicion." Nan Zhen shrugged and sighed, "Actually, think about it carefully, both Qin Fangruo and Qin Yong are similar to Qin Yao, but your young lady is not like anyone else."

Dongyue: "But if the young lady is not her own, why would the madam and the master raise her? If it is the daughter of an old friend, there is no need to change her identity at all."

She has served in the Qin Mansion for many years, and stayed in the palace for a few more years. She has also heard of many dirty things in the mansion of the high family. She knows that some wives who can't bear children will choose to adopt what their aunt gave birth to under their own name. .

But the master didn't accept the aunt, and the wife also had the second young lady and the eldest son, so there was really no need to do so.

Dongyue shook her head, she couldn't figure out what these masters were thinking.

Nan Zhen went over the faces of everyone in the Qin family, put the matter aside for now, and only asked, "When is Qin Yimiao's birthday, do you remember?"

"The seventh day of May."

Nan Zhen: "Summer time?"

"Correct."

"What a coincidence..." Nan Zhen murmured to herself.

The master said that when she was picked up, it was a hot summer night, the sun was scorching during the day, but she felt cold when she slept on the stone slab at night.

If she hadn't been picked up by her master, she would have froze to death long ago.

The summer flower Ye Zhenzhen, Master chose the single word "Zhen" when naming her, hoping that she will also sprout and thrive, be tenacious and lush.

Dongyue was surprised, "Is that the same day for your empress?"

"That's not true. I'm on the tenth day of May."

That is, the day he was picked up by Master.

"Ah!" Dongyue suddenly turned up the volume and snapped her fingers, "Isn't it tomorrow?!"

She didn't know it before, and she didn't prepare for it.

Nan Zhen manually closed her open mouth, "Well, it's tomorrow, but you don't have to worry, I don't value this very much, just go with the usual days."

After Master passed away, she did not celebrate her birthday.

Besides, she doesn't know who her parents are, the real birthday is not that important, every day is worth living right now.

"Oh oh oh."

Dongyue promised well, but her dark eyes couldn't stop turning around, thinking about it.

Nan Zhen got up and patted her hand, "Don't think about it, let's cook first, I'm hungry."

"Okay, I'll go right now!"

After finishing speaking, he ran to the kitchen with the dishes full of Shau Kei.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly. When Nan Zhen opened the door, she raised her hand to cover her eyes, and it took a while to get used to it.

When she lowered her arms, she saw Dongyue walking through the arch on the right holding a porcelain white bowl, her steps were fast and full of interest.

Before walking up to her, he said, "I guess the empress will wake up at this time, the time is just right!"

"Changshou noodles!" Dongyue approached and held the bowl in front of her, "Eat it while it's hot."

Nan Zhen accepted it with a smile, and thanked her, "I know that when your eyes rolled around yesterday, you must be thinking about it."

"Hey." Dongyue scratched her head embarrassingly, "Your Majesty, eat first, there is still work in the kitchen, I'll come back later."

"Well, let's go."

Dongyue got the answer and stepped out happily.Not long after walking out, when she went around the corridor, she saw Xiao Rongxi coming with Xiao Guizi, she hurried forward to salute, "Your Majesty."

Xiao Rongxi nodded lightly, "Where's your mother?"

"Your Majesty is in the room, do you want the maidservant to pass it on first?"

"No, I can go by myself. I saw you walking in a hurry just now, but is there something wrong?"

Dongyue: "Return to Your Majesty, it's just the work in the kitchen, it's not a big deal."

"That's it..." He said, looking back at Xiao Guizi, "You can help too."

Xiao Guizi didn't realize it for a while, she didn't know why, "Huh?"

Dongyue's brain was bright at the moment, and she pulled Xiao Guizi out, "Yes, there is a lot of work, and this servant can't handle it alone. Eunuch Gui is here to help."

Suddenly, Xiao Guizi was about to speak when Dongyue covered her mouth and dragged her away.

After turning the corner and making sure His Majesty couldn't hear her, Dongyue snorted twice, "I always say that my brain is not working well, and you have to rely on me at critical moments."

Your Majesty made it clear that he just wanted to drive people away and stay with the empress alone!

Xiao Guizi slapped her on the head, "It's my fault that I slept too late last night, woke up early again, and my mind is not so clear. It's okay, let's stay alone."

"What are you waiting for? The kitchen is full of life," Dongyue walked forward, not forgetting to reach out her hand to greet him, "Hurry up and follow, don't try to be lazy!"

Xiao Guizi: "..."

Think of him as the first eunuch, but he has to listen to a palace maid to direct his work.The world is going down, it's going down—

"Come on, come on, don't rush!"

Having just woken up early, she didn't have much appetite, so Nan Zhen felt full after eating half a bowl of noodles.

Putting down the chopsticks, when he heard movement outside the door, he thought it was Dongyue leaving and coming back, then he concentrated on the sound of footsteps, and looked up, seeing Xiao Rongxi striding forward, slightly surprised, "Why did Your Majesty come so early?"

"I want to come to your place for breakfast, it seems that I have missed the hour?"
