If she really cared about this, she could make the best of a bad situation from the beginning, which was to make the child who was wandering outside and might bring shame to the family in the future disappear, and just treat Ling Zhuo as her own daughter.
But that was her own flesh and blood. The girl should have enjoyed all this. It was only because of her mother’s negligence that she suffered for eleven more years. It was their luck that she was still alive and well now.
How could they demand that she be as good as Ling Zhuo or other young ladies in the mansion?
Fortunately, the child was only eleven years old now, and there were still four years left before she got married. Generally, girls from wealthy families got engaged early and married late.
For a family like the Marquis of Changping, as a legitimate daughter, it was not too late to get married even if she stayed until she was seventeen or eighteen years old.
In other words, she still had several years to slowly teach the child.
It would be best if she was willing to learn. If she was unwilling to learn these rules and etiquettes, with the family background of the Marquis’s mansion, she would just choose a poor boy with good character for her daughter in the future. She expected that the other party would not dare to bully her daughter.
In this way, her husband might not be as noble as the husbands of other sisters, but she might be able to live more freely than those sisters.
These were all that Mrs. Fan had considered when she was preparing to find her daughter.
“If that’s the case, why are you worried, Eldest Madam?” Nanny Fan smiled kindly.
The relationship between her and Mrs. Fan had long gone beyond the ordinary master-servant relationship.
Especially after Mrs. Fan’s biological mother passed away, this old nanny who originally served her biological mother was one of the few people around Mrs. Fan to confide in, and she treated her as an elder.
“Nanny is right.” Mrs. Fan’s mood calmed down a lot.
She was looking forward to the arrival of the child. She thought that the child also wanted to see her biological mother very urgently. The bond between blood was very subtle.
After she met Xiao Wu, perhaps the previous estrangement and alienations would be completely eliminated.
“Did someone already send a message to the Marquis and Young Master?”
After calming down, Mrs. Fan focused her attention on other people.
“Both the Marquis and the Young Master have replied that they will return to the mansion before the Young Lady arrives in the evening, but…”
Nanny Fan frowned: “The maid at Sixth Young Lady’s place sent a message saying that Sixth Young Lady is sick again.”
She fell ill again.
Ever since she learned her identity half a year ago, the Sixth Young Lady, who was originally in good health, had been sick every now and then.
After learning that the real young lady was about to return to the mansion, she simply fell ill and couldn’t get up.
Nanny Fan was a person who attached great importance to hierarchy. She used to respect and love the Sixth Young Lady because the Sixth Young Lady was the daughter of her master.
Now that she knew that the Sixth Young Lady was not her master’s daughter and that the other party had seized the wealth and glory that belonged to the real Sixth Young Lady for eleven years, her feelings for the child faded away.
Especially when she saw that the other party was not ashamed of this, but she also took advantage of the love of the Eldest Madam and the Marquis to pretend to be sick, so she liked her even less. The little feelings she had were consumed by her day-to-day troubles.
“Ah Zhuo— Let the people below take care of her more… Hey, I really can’t take care of her during this period. It’s understandable that she is throwing a tantrum.”
After all, she was a child who had been raised for eleven years, how could she stop loving her?
Between the adopted daughter and the biological daughter, Mrs. Fan was also entangled.
“Eldest Madam, there is something I want to say that you may not like to hear, but before the Young Lady returns home, I must remind you.”
Nanny Fan felt that Eldest Madam’s attitude was not right at the moment.
She never thought that the so-called twins’ lie could be kept from the Young Lady for long. She would grow up sooner or later, and this matter was not a secret in the mansion.
Even if Mrs. Fan forced people to keep silent, with the existence of the stepmother and the second branch who were not afraid of chaos in the world, the Young Lady would definitely know the truth after returning to the mansion.
What would the Young Lady think if the Eldest Madam and the Marquis still loved the Sixth Young Lady at that time?
