Chapter 310 Meeting Xue He
Three days later, Xue He and Wang Lu came to Youran Ju with carefully prepared gifts.
Shopkeeper Chen already knew who the visitor was, so he led them directly through the backyard to the house where Xue Qing lived.
"Please come in, Duke!" Shopkeeper Chen brought the two to the door of Xue Qing's study.
At this time, Xue He stopped at the door, secretly suppressed his emotions, and stepped into the study.
Wang Lu, who was following behind, was a little confused, but when he saw his brother-in-law go in, he followed him into the study.
When Xue Qing heard the footsteps, he stood up and prepared to greet them. At this time, he saw a tall figure walking in.
Xue Qing was still dressed as a man, clasping his hands together and bowing slightly: "Greetings, Duke."
Xue He was stunned there, Wang Lu looked at Xue Qing, a handsome young man, and poked Xue He in the waist.
Xue He reacted and said, "Mr. Wu, please don't be polite!"
"I am Wang Chuyue's father. Thank you, Mr. Wu, for saving my daughter," said Wang Lu from the side.
After the three of them exchanged greetings.
Wang Lu stared at Xue Qing, his eyes full of admiration. He leaned forward slightly and said in a sincere and sincere tone: "Mr. Wu, thank you for saving my daughter."
Xue He didn't say anything during the whole process, but Xue Qing and Wang Lu were having a great conversation.
Zhou Qian sat in the carriage and watched through the curtains as Xue Qing saw Xue He off. After Xue He walked away, the coachman stopped the carriage in front of the gate.
As Xue Qing walked into the yard, he heard the servant's voice behind him: "Master, Master Qian is here to visit."
Xue Qing frowned: "Let him in"
In the study
"Dear guest, please take a seat"
"Xia Xueqing" Zhou Qian uttered three words after sitting down.
Xue Qing was not surprised, as anyone could easily find out her identity by asking at Shilibao.
"Well, does this name sound nice?" Xue Qing poured a cup of tea for him and himself.
"It doesn't sound good." Zhou Qian glanced at the teacup on the table.
He then continued, "The person who just left was Duke Zhenguo Xue He, your sister's so-called father now." Zhou Qian took a sip of tea.
Xue Qing stared at Zhou Qian, his fingertips turning pale as he gripped the teacup: "And then?"
"Do you know that your sister has been married to the eldest prince by the emperor? Do you know what this means?" Zhou Qian said in a low voice.
Xue Qing shook her head and chuckled: "Haha, it means that she will have to share her husband with others in the future, the sorrow of a woman!"
Zhou Qian was stunned, with surprise flashing in his eyes, and then he said: "The emperor has granted me the title of legal wife."
Xue Qing stood up. She didn't want to discuss this kind of thing with Zhou Qian. It was simply not going to make sense. "Then congratulate her!"
Zhou Qian's eyes were ambiguous: "The one the emperor has granted marriage to is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo!"
Xue Qing's heart was slightly shocked, and he turned to look at Zhou Qian: "You came here today just to tell me this? Do you want me to envy the woman who can marry the prince?"
Seeing Zhou Qian didn't say anything, she continued, "I'm sorry to disappoint you! Well, first, I don't accept sharing a husband with someone else, and second, I absolutely cannot marry into the royal family."
Zhou Qian's eyes were gloomy and unclear: "Why can't I marry into the royal family?"
"Not free" Xue Qing sat down and drank some tea.
Zhou Qian changed the subject: "You don't seem to be very close to your sister who you grew up with!"
I'm not familiar with her, so how can we be close to each other?
This reminded her of the original owner, that lovely woman, with cold eyes: "She is destined to be a young lady, and Xia Xueqing has been serving the family like a servant since she was a child, how can they be close?"
Zhou Qian nodded slightly.
"What are you here for today?" Xue Qing didn't want to talk about these things anymore.
Zhou Qian did not give up the topic easily: "Which of you two is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo? When the Duke's wife saw you a few days ago, she was..."
"The Duke's Mansion recognizes Xia Xuelian. She is the Duke's Mansion's legitimate daughter, and the Emperor has also confirmed it," Xue Qing blurted out.
But suddenly I thought, did he know something?
"You are the real daughter of the Duke's Mansion!" Zhou Qian suddenly said this, his eyes fixed on Xue Qing.
“It doesn’t matter anymore”
Zhou Qian stood up and said, "It's very important."
Xue Qing laughed: "How can a businessman like you influence His Majesty?"
"Also, you'd better pretend you don't know about this matter, otherwise..."
"What else are you going to do?"
Xue Qing's face darkened: "Kill you"
"Jiang Yi, show the guests out!"
Jiang Yi came in and said to Zhou Qian, "Mr. Qian, please come in!"
After Zhou Qian left, Jiang Yi came in and stood quietly aside.
"Sister Jiang, did you hear the conversation between him and me just now?" Xue Qing didn't intend to hide it from her anymore.
Jiang Yidi lowered his head: "I heard everything"
"Isn't it ridiculous? I have encountered such a bloody thing as the real and fake daughter. Do I look like Xue He?"
Jiang Yi looked at Xue Qing and said, "Qing'er, are you really not going to recognize him?"
"No, the Xia family raised the Xue family's child. Now let the Xue family raise the Xia family's daughter. Isn't that great?"
Xue Qing said to the original owner in her heart: "Sorry, Xiao Qing'er, I don't want to be a housewife."
Jiang Yi suddenly remembered what happened when he saved Wang Chuyue that day: "No wonder Mrs. Xue's face suddenly changed when she saw you. If you change into women's clothes, you really look like that lady."
Jiang Yi realized that she had spoken out of turn. She was the biological daughter of that lady, so it was natural that they looked alike.
Xue Qing glanced at Jiang Yi and said, "My surname is Wu, and my given name is Qing."
After Xue He returned to the Duke's Mansion, he went straight to Zhufeng Courtyard. At this time, Wang was also beside the old lady.
When Wang saw Xue He coming back, she was very excited. Nanny Rong asked the servants to leave and she stood guard at the door herself.
"Husband, have you seen Mr. Wu?" Mrs. Wang asked impatiently.
Xue He glanced at the old lady and comforted Madam Wang, saying, "Madam, this Mr. Wu is a handsome man, and it is no exaggeration to call him a dragon among men."
Madam Wang asked anxiously, "He... is he a woman?"
Xue He was stunned for a moment, then said: "This, this doesn't look like a girl."
Mrs. Wang felt a little disappointed, but then she said, "I think Yue'er might be interested in him."
The old lady coughed; "Jingyao, don't talk nonsense!"
Somewhat reproachfully, he said: "Even if Mr. Wu is a rare talent, we don't know his family background. Besides, we have to pay attention to Yue's reputation."
"Mother, I spoke out of turn." Mrs. Wang bowed slightly.
"Madam, I see that you don't look well. Go back and rest first." Xue He coaxed Wang Jingyao back to his own yard.
Xue He came back and sat down on the couch next to the old lady: "Mother..."
The old lady's eyes also turned red: "How is the child?"
Xue He took a deep breath and said slowly: "If she were dressed as a man, she would look a bit like Jing'er. If she were dressed as a woman, she would look like Jingyao when she was young."
Thinking of Xue Qing's conversation, he continued, "He speaks well, not like a child who grew up in a farm."
