Lady Ouyang originally wanted to get close to Jiujiu, and Wang Fei taking a step to talk to her was exactly what she wanted. Almost subconsciously, she followed behind Wang Fei and walked out.
These years, Lady Ouyang wasn't particularly keen on the gathering between the madams, so there weren't many people who were familiar with Lady Ouyang.
But Jiujiu was different. Jiujiu was personally brought in by Wang Fei and was treated so gently by Yan Sui. So, after seeing Lady Ouyang who looked very similar to Jiujiu, everyone instantly had an idea.
And because of this idea, they looked at the capital's number one beauty, Ouyang Pinting, with unfriendly eyes.
Not all families were like Madam Ouyang and Lord Ouyang, who only had one couple for life. Most of the families had concubines, and not just one or two. There were also children of concubines. Many madams' methods were even more powerful. What else did they not understand?
A few madams who knew the inside story immediately opened their mouths and whispered to the young ladies who were close to them, "I heard that Lady Ouyang gave birth in a temple. It is said that there was another pregnant woman who gave birth at the same time as her. You say …"
Although this madam didn't finish her words, no one knew what the rest of her words meant. It was nothing more than the matter of one person substituting another person for another.
"Heavens?" A madam exclaimed and whispered while covering her mouth, "Then you're saying that this Jiujiu girl is actually Lady Ouyang's daughter, and this … is that woman's daughter?"
Who was this, as long as one had some idea in their heart, they would know that it was Ouyang Pinting.
Even if there was no evidence, just based on Jiujiu and Lady Ouyang's extremely similar appearance and Lady Ouyang's reaction, the relationship between Jiujiu and Lady Ouyang was basically a sure thing.
On the other hand, although Ouyang Pinting used makeup to make herself look similar to Lady Ouyang, but compared to Jiujiu who was almost exactly the same, she instantly became completely different.
Rumors always spread very quickly and the furen's words quickly spread. Almost everyone knew that the young lady that Wang Fei brought today was most likely Lady Ouyang's daughter and that the original number one beauty in the capital, Ouyang Pinting, was just a fake that occupied the nest of a sparrow.
Ouyang Pinting's hearing was very good. When everyone started to talk about it, she heard such words, but she couldn't refute it. Her face turned purple and was particularly ugly.
The Princess Consort asked Yan Sui to bring Jiujiu to eat first while she told Madam Ouyang about Jiujiu.
Madam Ouyang held the Princess Consort's hand and whispered her experience of giving birth to a child while wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
After listening to Lady Ouyang's words, she almost instantly concluded that Lady Ouyang's child...
The two pregnant women gave birth at the same time, and they were both daughters. The most important thing was that Madam Ouyang said that she was in a hurry when she left. She guessed that the servants carried the children away in a hurry and didn't check, so they carried the wrong child.
However, Wangfei thought deeper than Madam Ouyang.
Lady Ouyang was about to give birth, so she would naturally prepare the baby's things. The cloth that Lady Ouyang used to wrap the baby was naturally the best.
That woman was just a merchant's wife, so the cloth that wrapped the baby was definitely not as good as Lady Ouyang's.
How could it be wrong when the cloth was different? So, there was only one truth. That woman wanted her daughter to live a good life, so she deliberately swapped Lady Ouyang's daughter with hers.
Hearing Wang Fei's conjecture, the soft-hearted Lady Ouyang's eyes instantly turned red, and her heart was filled with hatred.
If that woman didn't make the first move and shouted so miserably, she wouldn't have been frightened to the point of affecting her pregnancy. That madam's fetal position was a little abnormal, and she was kind enough to let her Midwife help that madam. Who knew that people's hearts were unpredictable. She treated people with sincerity, but the other party repaid her kindness with evil.
When she thought that because of that madam's selfishness, she and Jiujiu were separated for eighteen years, Lady Ouyang's heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.
No wonder she couldn't get close to Ouyang Pinting for eighteen years. It turned out that the two of them weren't real mother and daughter. Without the blood of mother and daughter, how could the two of them get close?
Lady Ouyang raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes. She looked at Wang Fei and said, "Can I go and see Jiujiu?"
Lady Ouyang only wanted to see Jiujiu now. She wanted to ask how Jiujiu had been all these years. She missed out on Jiujiu for so many years, and now she just wanted to make it up to Jiujiu.
Wang Fei saw Lady Ouyang's love for her daughter, so she brought Lady Ouyang to the dining room.
Yan Sui was eating with Jiujiu. Jiujiu ate the food in small bites, and Yan Sui was especially considerate and gave all the things that Jiujiu liked to eat to Jiujiu. In this regard, Jiujiu responded to Yan Sui with a gentle smile, which made Yan Sui's originally soft heart even softer.
Looking at Jiujiu's obedient appearance, Lady Ouyang's heart was as soft as a puddle of water. She looked at Wang Fei and said, "I want to acknowledge Jiujiu."
Wang Fei readily agreed, "Of course, but Jiujiu and Zi Xing are not young anymore. It's time to prepare for marriage."
Hearing Wang Fei's words, Lady Ouyang's overjoyed expression froze. She wanted to refuse, but when she thought that if it wasn't for Wang Fei, she probably wouldn't know about Jiujiu's existence, she could only smile bitterly and nod, agreeing to Wang Fei's proposal.
Seeing Lady Ouyang agree, Wang Fei smiled like a little fox that had succeeded in stealing fish.
Not only did she directly convince Lady Ouyang to agree to Jiujiu and Yan Sui's marriage, but she also found Jiujiu's biological parents. Ouyang daren was a well-known good official, and Ouyang daren's di eldest daughter was married to Yan Sui. It could be said that they were well-matched in terms of social status.
After Jiujiu finished eating, Madam Ouyang and the Princess Consort walked in.
When she saw Jiujiu, Lady Ouyang's eyes that had just dried up became moist again. She raised her hand to wipe the moist corners of her eyes. Lady Ouyang opened her mouth, but her voice was choked. After a long time, she called out in a low voice, "Jiujiu."
Jiujiu raised her head and obediently called out, "Lady Ouyang."
Jiujiu's voice was very pleasant to hear. It was so pleasant that it made Lady Ouyang's heart melt into water. But when she called Lady Ouyang, Lady Ouyang's heart was about to break.
She was Jiujiu's mother, but Jiujiu called her Lady Ouyang so coldly and distantly, as if she was calling a stranger. How could Lady Ouyang not be sad?
Lady Ouyang's eyes were filled with tears. Her hand that was holding Jiujiu's arm tightened, but because she was afraid of hurting Jiujiu, she loosened her grip halfway.
Lady Ouyang's eyes looked straight at Jiujiu. She softly recounted the events of the past word by word. After listening to the entire process, Lady Ouyang was sobbing.
