Chapter 195 Where is my daughter going?
Chapter 195 Where is my daughter going?
Xia Keyu took a step back almost subconsciously, unable to believe everything he heard.
It was entirely because what Fan Shuyao asked her was:
"Do you know where my stupid daughter went?"
Numerous thoughts flashed through Xia Keyu's heart. She thought she had been very cautious in doing things. She couldn't figure out how she was exposed and was discovered by a person like Fan Shuyao who didn't have much thought.
Finally, he had to force a smile and asked:
"Mom, I don't understand what you mean? Am I not your daughter?"
Fan Shuyao avoided Xia Keyu's gaze this time and looked at the light blue sky outside the window, with a hint of melancholy in her tone as she said:
"In my heart, of course I regard you as my biological daughter."
Fan Shuyao then smiled bitterly and said:
"It's just that my daughter is stupid, dull, and not good at words. She can't compare to one percent of your intelligence. Even if you look exactly the same, how can I not recognize my daughter who I have raised for more than ten years? .”
How could her daughter, who had a silly temperament, win the favor of Duke Chu? She was also named county head by the emperor and received numerous rewards.This is not what her daughter can do.
Then he comforted Xia Keyu and said:
"You don't have to worry, I just want to know where she went. I can see that everything you do is for my good and Demao's good. You really protect us as relatives. I said But, you are also my biological daughter."
Fan Shuyao's words were extremely sincere. Her eyes looking at Xia Keyu were full of expectation, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were wrinkled together.
Xia Keyu was silent for a moment.
Yes, she thinks she is good at pretentiousness and will not show any flaws.But she just forgot one thing: nothing can hide a mother's love for her daughter.
The room was quiet for a moment, and then Xia Keyu slowly spoke, his voice a little hoarse, and whispered:
"I do not know."
Of course she could continue to coax Fan Shuyao with sweet words, but facing such a sincere mother, she could not say anything to hide.
Even at the risk of exposing her true identity, she could only tell the truth.
This was of course the truth. She really didn't know where her original body had gone, whether she had been reincarnated or where she had gone.
When Fan Shuyao heard the sound, her eyes were instantly covered by a layer of mist, and she could not hide her disappointment.
But she quickly smiled and held Xia Keyu's hand, and said with a smile:
"Okay, I understand. Come on, you have changed your clothes, and we will go out to have dinner with uncle and the others."
Fan Shuyao's palm was extremely warm, which calmed Xia Keyu's slightly frightened heart.
The banquet at the house was ready in a short time. Fan Chenglong was extremely happy and drank several glasses of wine.
During the meal, everyone mentioned Chu Yuan's help this time, and also said that they should give Chu Yuan something in return.
Otherwise, I'm afraid that the Duke of Chu's palace will look down upon their Fan family.
Fan Shen was in business and had seen a lot of good things while traveling around. He immediately said with a smile:
"I think if Keyu is going to get married at the end of the year, it would be time to embroider the wedding dress. In the past few days, I have sent people around to find some good materials for you to make the wedding dress."
Xia Keyu was a little stunned, and then said honestly: "But I don't know how to be a female worker."
When Fan Chenglong heard this, he smiled heartily and said, "You just followed your mother on this point. Your mother didn't even know how to pinch a needle back then."
Fan Yin, who was standing next to him, interjected: "What should we, the daughter of the Fan family, learn from these things?"
Seeing this, Fan Shuyao comforted Xia Keyu with a smile and said, "Don't worry, the wedding dress will be embroidered by the embroiderer by then. You can just add a few stitches at the end."
Xia Keyu breathed a sigh of relief and heard Fan Shen say:
"My people recently collected a batch of fine Xiangyun yarn. This thing is known as 'soft gold', and there is a saying that one ounce of gold and one ounce of yarn. But I might as well take this thing and make a dress for Duke Chu. In return." When others heard this, they all felt that this gift was appropriate.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and at a quarter past three o'clock, it didn't rain at all in the capital, and it was still a sunny day.
That means that Xiangyangzi won this competition.
In this way, Xia Keyu not only cleared his innocence, but also got 2 taels of snowflake silver.
Xia Keyu couldn't help being happy, and sent someone from the Fan family to escort the money back to the gambling house. After counting it himself, he had someone deposit it in the bank.
Bai Xiaoxiao followed Xia Keyu in betting 2000 taels of silver, and this time she also received 8000 taels of silver in return.
She ran to Xia Keyu excitedly, dancing with joy and saying from ear to ear:
"Ke Yu, 8000 taels of silver, that's a full 8000 taels of silver. I have never seen so much silver in my entire life."
Then he reported the information about the capital to Xia Keyu.
"You don't know that there has been a lot of commotion in Beijing over the past two days because of this bet issue."
You know, Ning Xiuer bet 2000 taels of silver, and if she loses, she loses. After all, no one knows that the Ning family of the Taishi Mansion is very wealthy.
Ning Xiuer is the legitimate daughter of the Taishi Mansion, so naturally no one dares to find fault with her.
But Meng Qinqing was different. The Meng family came from a scholarly family and was known to be incorruptible. As the eldest lady, she used her private money to gamble and lost.
This reputation is much more unpleasant.
Once word of this got out, several concubines would inevitably turn a deaf ear to Prime Minister Meng Zuosheng.
I heard that the left prime minister immediately banned Meng Qinqing in anger.
Mrs. Li Er, the chief envoy's family, was even worse. She had just obtained the stewardship of the house, but ended up gambling with 2000 taels. The house suffered a huge loss.
When her husband heard about it, he was furious.In addition, someone secretly told something about Mrs. Li Er before her marriage, which reached her husband's ears.
Now, her husband was determined to send Mrs. Li back to her parents' home and threatened to divorce his wife.
I heard that Mrs. Li Er has now returned to her parents' home and is crying every day.
Bai Xiaoxiao then said mysteriously: "Do you know why Miss Qin, the Minister of Punishment, is okay this time?"
Xia Keyu heard the sound and shook her head. She remembered that Miss Qin also invested 1000 taels. How could it be okay?
Bai Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and smiled:
"This Miss Qin is a thief. She only said she wanted to bet 1000 taels in name. In fact, she didn't invest any money in the gambling shop. So she didn't lose money at all this time."
Xia Keyu was a little stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that these ladies were quite thoughtful.
Bai Xiaoxiao then said regretfully:
"But she won't end up with anything good. I heard that Ning Xiuer was furious when she found out about this. She is afraid that she will be isolated in the future."
A small bet caused chaos in the capital.
It can be said that several families are happy and some are sad.
