Rebirth of Splendid Heaven

Chapter 75 The Truth
Hearing what Second Aunt said, An Mujin just stopped for a moment, and then continued to walk forward.

Seeing that An Mujin was about to leave, Second Aunt hurriedly shouted: "Actually, I am the real Miss Meng!"

"What?" An Mujin turned around, unable to digest the true meaning of this sentence for a while.

"I'm Meng Yushu!" The second aunt said, covering her mouth and crying.

For so many years, she has been bearing the name of Xiu Niang, and she has never dared to tell people that she is Meng Yushu.Now when I say it, I feel both relaxed and heavy, and my heart is very complicated.

"Then, who is that lady?" An Mujin's eyes widened in shock, and she turned to look at the maids at the door. Fortunately, they were all close friends.

"She is my maid, Yujiao." Up to now, when Second Aunt called Yujiao, her heart was still bleeding.

Yujiao is a maid bought by Master Meng from outside. She is only two years older than the Second Aunt. Because she has no name, the Second Aunt gave her a name that is very similar to her own - Yujiao.

Before the Meng family was defeated, Second Aunt had a good love for Yujiao and said everything to her.Including the marriage with Lord Hou, Second Aunt often mentioned it.

But what she didn't expect, before she turned 15, a fire burned the Meng Mansion black inside and out, and only she and Yujiao escaped.

The family disappeared overnight, and the second aunt was sad and sad. She felt helpless and wanted to commit suicide several times.During that time, Yujiao was always by her side, comforting her, enlightening her, and saying that she would take her to the Hou Mansion.

As long as Second Aunt tells Old Hou Ye that she is the daughter of the Meng family, Old Hou Ye will definitely decide to let her marry Hou Ye.It's just that at that time Second Auntie didn't have that thought at all, she was sad all day long, and she didn't want to marry at all.The most important thing is that the second aunt is worried that the Meng family is gone, and the old master will not admit it. She will definitely not be able to bear the blow at that time, so she has been dragging on.

This made Yujiao very depressed. One day she said to Second Aunt: "Miss, we are two single girls who don't know anything. It's not an option to live like this. If you really don't want to enter the Marquis' Mansion, then I will replace you." You go in, and you will be my servant girl. When my position in the Hou Mansion is stabilized, I will buy you a house and let you be a young lady."

This was Yujiao's promise to Second Aunt, but everything changed later.

After hearing what Second Aunt said, An Mujin clutched her chest, unable to believe it was true.

"Auntie, why did you agree to her ridiculous request at the beginning? Don't you know that she has other plans?" An Mujin tightly held Second Auntie's hand, watching her cry like pear blossoms with rain, it should be I feel bad too.

"Yujiao was not like this before. She was very kind to me, really nice." Second Aunt withdrew her hand, wiping her tears.

When An Mujin heard what Second Aunt said, she shook her head violently, "I don't believe it. It must be Auntie who is too naive to be cheated by her, so you think she is good."

"No, it's not. She was really nice to me before, but she has indeed changed later." The second aunt is still speaking for the eldest lady.

An Mujin suddenly took the rusty handkerchief from Second Aunt's hand, left the rusty handkerchief on the table, looked at Second Aunt and said, "Have you forgotten that she wants to poison us with wine and kill us?"

The second aunt no longer sobbed and was no longer sad, and put on a very cold demeanor: "How could I forget that incident, I will never forget it in my life. Jin'er, don't think that my aunt said that she was well, so she just said, I think I still think she is good. When her daughter framed you with the heirloom of the Meng family, I don't want to bear it anymore. But..."

"Auntie, don't talk about the past. What happened to the emerald butterfly?" An Mujin immediately interrupted Second Aunt, she knew that Second Aunt would say that she was not good enough and hurt her.

Interrupted by An Mujin, Second Aunt was not in a hurry, and continued talking about the emerald butterfly.

The Meng family is a scholarly family, and Mr. Meng is a literati who loves to read. The young master and young lady of the Meng family have followed Mr. Meng since they were young, and there is no need to hire a private school teacher.

When Second Auntie was ten years old, Master Meng had a dream of a butterfly, which reminded him of a poem: Zhuang Shengxiao dreamed of butterflies, and Wang Dichun entrusted the cuckoo with his heart.

Because of this dream, Mr. Meng picked out the best piece of jade at home on a whim, and took it to make a pair of butterflies for someone.

When the butterfly was ready, Master Meng was very happy, and gave it to Second Aunt, asking her to keep it safe, saying it was a dowry for her.For this reason, the young master of the Meng family ate for a few days, and kept saying that his father loved his sister more than her.

Speaking of these past events, Second Auntie can still see a happy smile on her face.An Mujin thought that her aunt must have lived a very happy life at that time.

After the second aunt explained the matter of the emerald butterfly clearly, An Mujin and the second aunt were silent.

"Jin'er, why don't you talk anymore? Are you blaming my aunt for being too stupid to believe Yujiao's words? Otherwise, otherwise, you are the daughter of the Hou family, and you will not be bullied." After a moment of silence, the second aunt Started to blame myself again.

Hearing what Second Aunt said, An Mujin smiled at her, "Aunt, I never blamed you. I was just thinking about how the Meng Mansion was burned down in the fire back then. There was nothing but you and Daddy. Madame escaped? Don’t tell me, Auntie, have you never thought about the strangeness of this matter all these years?”

Speaking of the Meng Mansion, the second aunt couldn't help wiping her tears again, and shook her head and sighed: "So what, it's been 20 years, and there is nothing left. It's me, I also..."

"Auntie, besides me, who else did you tell about this matter? Do the old lady and Lord Hou know about it?" Afraid that Second Auntie would be sad again, An Mujin quickly changed the subject.

"The old lady knew my mother when she was young. She has already noticed from your appearance that you are similar to my mother. Because of the emerald butterfly, she called me to talk, and I told her everything. She said she didn't want to Such a big mistake in the Hou's Mansion makes people laugh at me, so let me bear it. But she said, she will treat you like a young lady." The second aunt said eagerly, as if she was worried that An Mujin would think too much.

An Mujin sighed: "Then you agreed, right?"

Second Aunt nodded, what else could she do besides agreeing?
"Then father should know too, right?" An Mujin didn't know what to say, Second Aunt really still had too little effort.

"En." Second Aunt nodded.

An Mujin was sitting in a chair and meditating. The second aunt also knew that this incident had hit her hard, so she didn't bother her, but went to the kitchen herself.

Before lunch started, An Mujin finally sorted out everything.The second aunt is the young lady of the Meng family, and the eldest lady is the maid of the second aunt.

So now I can explain why the eldest lady always targets her and Second Concubine. It turns out that she is worried that Second Concubine will tell this matter, so she has been suppressing Second Concubine.In front of Master Hou, he was kind to Second Concubine, but he always mocked Second Concubine behind his back.

Second Auntie's personality was originally soft, facing all kinds of treacherous methods of the eldest lady, she had to hide to save herself.At the end of An Mujin's birth, she wanted to protect An Mujin's safety even more, so she also asked An Mujin to be humble and try to please An Muxue.

However, An Mujin still felt strange about the fire in Meng's house 20 years ago, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.After all, that incident was so long ago that she was not even born yet.

When the food came to the table, An Mujin was familiar with the taste. She remembered that when she was bullied by others when she was a child, Second Aunt would prepare delicious food for her.

Seeing that even though Second Auntie was smiling, there was sadness between her brows, and An Mujin's heart ached.

During the meal, An Mujin told the second aunt about her decision, and the second aunt pretended that she hadn't told her anything about the Meng family, and she would pretend that she didn't know anything.

Since the old lady and Master Hou both knew about it and did not give Second Concubine justice, it meant that they cared about face more than Second Concubine.Another important factor is that the eldest lady gave birth to two sons for Lord Hou, which the second aunt could not match.

Hearing what An Mujin said, Second Aunt felt relieved and said with a smile: "Jin'er, I'm afraid you'll be too impulsive, so go find the old lady."

An Mujin smiled, if it was before, maybe she would really be impulsive.

But after going through so many things, she also understood that the fact that the eldest lady can have everything now shows that she is also an extremely skilled person.Besides, she and An Yunshan have a very good relationship. If something happens to her, An Yunshan will be the first to stand by her side.

"Auntie, don't worry, I don't care about the identity of a concubine or a concubine at all. As long as I live happily and my aunt is happy, I will be satisfied." An Mujin said with a smile.

"My aunt really loves Jin'er. However, Master Hou has already told me that he will ask the old lady to adopt me as a wife, and then Jin'er will be regarded as a real master." The second aunt smiled very gently.

It was only then that An Mujin remembered the matter of meeting Lord Hou at the gate of Qinxiangyuan. He must have been in such a hurry to discuss this matter with the old lady.

Lunch was eaten in Yunwenyuan, and dinner was still eaten here.

Just after dinner, another maid beside An Muxue, Ning Fu, rushed over and respectfully handed a post to An Mujin.

An Mujin opened the post and saw that it was about eating tomorrow, so he sneered and threw the post on the table.This An Muxue is quite good at making a name for herself, isn't she just having a meal, and even wrote a greeting card.

The second aunt opened the post, read it carefully, and said worriedly: "Jin'er, are you going out for dinner with the eldest lady? You have to be careful, whether you can go or not."

An Mujin was taken aback, and read the post carefully again, he really went to Lanyue Restaurant to eat.

What the hell is An Muxue doing? Didn't she go to Ruixueyuan for dinner? Why did she go to Lanyue Restaurant again?
