Arc 5: Swapping Lives (25)

“Congratulations, Eldest Madam. You finally found the Young Lady.”

As soon as Nanny Liu found Yu Wu, she immediately passed the news back to the Marquis of Changping’s Mansion. While Nanny Liu was still on the road with Yu Wu, Mrs. Fan in the Marquis’ Mansion had already received the news.

“Nanny Liu said that Xiao Wu and I look like we were carved out of the same mold. People who know me well will be able to think of me when I was a child when they see her.”

Mrs. Fan burst into tears with excitement.

Ever since she learned the truth about her biological daughter being exchanged, she blamed herself extremely.

She blamed herself for not discovering Lu Yi’s wolfish ambition earlier, and for not keeping an eye on the child at the time.

She fell asleep from exhaustion after giving birth to the child. She trusted the servants around her too much and gave Lu Yi the opportunity to replace the child.

“Look, her name is Xiao Wu. Isn’t this fate? Although she is not by my side, she has taken the grass character name that is typical among girls of her generation.”

Mrs. Fan held the letter with trembling hands, afraid that she would misread every word in the letter.

“Xiao Wu, my daughter’s Xiao Wu.”

 

Mrs. Fan looked nervously at the old nanny beside her. This old nanny was more valued by Mrs. Fan than Nanny Liu.

She was the nanny next to Mrs. Fan’s mother before. Because she was highly valued, she was given the surname of the main family. She was very skillful and capable.

After Mrs. Fan got married, she was sent to Mrs. Fan by her mother as a managing nanny.

If she was not too old and could not withstand the long journey, Nanny Fan should have gone there in person to look for Yu Wu this time.

“Nanny, why does this child look like me? If she looks like her father, she will suffer less in the future.”

Mrs. Fan suffered a lot in her childhood because of her charming appearance. When she saw that Nanny Liu said in the letter that her daughter was extremely similar to her, she began to worry about her daughter before she even met her.

But at this moment she couldn’t hide the smile on her face.

Which mother who had been separated from her child for more than ten years would not be happy to find out that her daughter resembled herself?

“Nanny Liu also said that Xiao Wu’s body and bones were a little weak. That’s right. The Yu family is poor, and the Yu couple died early. My little Ah Wu was born prematurely in the seventh month. How could a family like that raise her well?”

Mrs. Fan’s face faded from joy and became worried.

She couldn’t help but think of Ling Zhuo, whom she had loved like a treasure for eleven years.

When the child fell ill every other day, she stayed by her side to take care of her day and night.

Whenever she cried, she would cry beside her, blaming herself for not taking good care of the child.

But Ling Zhuo was not her biological daughter. While she was worrying about other people’s children, her real daughter might also be suffering from illness.

Her situation was even worse because the Yu family could not invite a highly skilled imperial physician, let alone provide various precious medicines. She could only rely on herself.

That’s her biological daughter!

She should have been raised in a pampered way so that even if she had a little temper, she would not be annoying, instead of being confined to the countryside and having to save money for several months just to eat a bite of meat.

With this thought in mind, it was difficult for Mrs. Fan not to vent her anger on Ling Zhuo because she had taken away the life of her own daughter.

But on the other hand, Mrs. Fan knew that Ling Zhuo was innocent, and the love she had shown her over the years was not fake.

For a moment, she couldn’t let go of her feelings for Ling Zhuo.

She still loved her, but this love was no longer as pure as it was at the beginning.

Especially in the past six months when she knew that her daughter might still be alive, a large part of Mrs. Fan’s energy was divided into decorating the yard of her biological daughter.

She added a lot of things to that courtyard and even put a set of pearl headwear that Ling Zhuo had always wanted on her dowry list in that courtyard.

Ling Yaodong should have similar ideas to hers, so Ling Yaodong gave Mrs. Fan the right to use his private treasury. He had many more good things than Mrs. Fan.

In the past six months, boxes of silk, satins, and jewelry were moved to that courtyard, as if she wanted to fill up the small courtyard.

Ling Yaodong and Mrs. Fan’s big moves made the people in the mansion jealous, especially the young girls in the mansion.

There was already a person named Ling Zhuo in the family who was envied by everyone, and now there came out another young lady who no one had ever seen.

They didn’t even know what kind of person that young lady was, but she had already obtained a generous private property that they might not get when they got married.

Compared to Ling Zhuo, who had grown up together with them and still had some feelings at least, people were even more jealous of this new young lady.

Of course, no one felt more deeply than Ling Zhuo about the fact that there would soon be a favored young lady in the family.

There were no absolute secrets in the Marquis’ Mansion. Ling Yaodong and Mrs. Fan both wanted to conceal the truth, but Ling Zhuo soon discovered that she was not their biological daughter.

In the past, she was the most beloved child of her parents. Because she was born prematurely, she was valued more in the family than her own biological brothers.

When her grandfather was alive, she was the only granddaughter who was favored by his grandfather.

After her father became the Marquis of Changping, her status rose further and she stood out among her sisters.

But ever since the truth that she was not her parents’ biological daughter came out, although her treatment had not changed, Ling Zhuo realized that something was different.

Her parents’ attitude toward her was different, and the people under her did not treat her with as much respect as before.

Those sisters who had been suppressed by her in every way even often looked at her with a teasing look.

All this made Ling Zhuo panic.
