Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce

Chapter 361: Chapter 361: glutinous rice and sweet lotus root given by Uncle Xie

Xie Manor, Xie Yun’s study.

Lan Xin hurriedly barged into the study and said, “Master, can you guess who I saw on the street?”

Xie Yun had no intention of guessing at all.

Lan Xin said, “I saw fifth Miss Qiao. She came to Jiangnan to arrange the reception for His Majesty when he came to Jiangnan.

“I also saw a three-year-old girl beside her. She looks exactly like you!

“Don’t you want to meet your own flesh and blood and meet Your Daughter?”

Xie Yun said, “Get Out!”

“Master!”

“Get Out!”

Lan Xin stomped her feet and left the room helplessly. Just as she left the study, she saw a woman carrying a bowl of soup. This woman was a guest living in the Xie family. She was the daughter of the Jiang family in Langya. Her ancestors were also considered an aristocratic family, however, she was defeated in her early years.

Now, her father was the envoy of Langxie, and she could be considered a noble daughter. She had been a guest of the Xie family since two years ago.

Lan Xin disliked Jiang Yu very much. She had yet to become the mistress of the Xie family, but she was already acting like the mistress of the Xie family.

When Jiang Yu saw Lan Xin, he did not stand on ceremony. He entered the study room and handed over the chicken soup to Xie Yun. “This is the chicken soup that I specially brewed for you. Lan Xin is very hot-tempered. She is becoming more and more unruly.”

Xie Yun looked at the soup in front of her and said, “Thank you very much. You are a guest of the Xie residence. There is no need to make Soup for me in the future.”

“I simply have nothing to do. It’s fine as long as you like it.”Jiang Yu put down the soup and chuckled.

After leaving the study room, she received a post from Zhou Shihui. Jiang Yu had been in Jiang an for two years. Some of the local aristocratic ladies in Jiangnan did not like to play with her. Moreover, she was already 20 years old.

Most of the ladies at this age were already married, and they could not play with her.

Only Zhou Shihui was talented. She was also the second daughter of another big family in Lin ‘an, the Qian family. Her status was similar to hers, so the two of them had a lot of interactions.

Jiang Yu was invited by Zhou Shihui to a restaurant. This restaurant was specially opened by Zhou Shihui to fight with the Hundred Savory restaurant. It was almost losing money every day.

Jiang Yu went to the private room on the second floor of the restaurant and asked Zhou Shihui, “Why did you invite me here today?”

Zhou shihui said, “You probably heard that his majesty and the Empress will be coming to Lin ‘an for a tour in two months.”

Jiang Yu said, “Everyone in Lin ‘an city knows about this matter. The temporary palace in Lin ‘an city has already been repaired.”

Zhou shihui smiled and said, “I treat you as a good friend, so there’s something I don’t want to hide from you and keep you in the dark.”

Jiang Yu asked, “What is it?”

Zhou Shihui pointed at Qiao Ruoyi, who was wearing an official uniform and shopping at a street stall downstairs. “Look at the people below.”

Jiang Yu looked over and saw a woman wearing a female official uniform. There were female officials in Jiangnan now, but the official robe she wore seemed to be of high quality.

Looking at the little girl next to her, Jiang Yu was shocked. “She, she, why does that little girl look so similar to Xie Yun!”

Zhou shihui sighed and said, “I only told you this because we are good friends. You are not allowed to tell outsiders.”

Jiang Yu raised three fingers and said, “I will not tell anyone. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning.”

Zhou shihui whispered, “This female official is the fifth sister of the Empress. Her name is Qiao Ruoyi and she is now a second rank assistant minister of the Ministry of Appointments. Her husband is the current general of the horse cavalry, Luo Wei.

The little girl she is holding is not her husband’s, but Xie Yun’s child!

When Xie Yun went to Chang ‘an, Qiao ruoyi hooked up with Xie Yun and plotted against her to get pregnant with Xie Yun’s child.

“However, Xie Yun wasn’t schemed against and refused to marry Qiao ruoyi. Qiao ruoyi had no choice but to marry the useless Luo Wei with the child.”

“After asking around, you found out that Qiao Ruoyi was pregnant with a child of six months and married Luo Wei. As for the child being Xie Yun, very few people know about it. I only found out about it once through the correspondence between my uncle and the Qiao family.”

Jiang Yu’s gaze was fixed on the girl beside Qiao Ruoyi. “How could this be? How could this be? What did Qiao ruoyi mean by bringing her to Jiangnan this time?”

Zhou shihui replied, “What meaning could there be? Although Qiao Ruoyi married Luo Wei, their marriage was a sham. In order to give that bastard a good birth, she wouldn’t be laughed at as an illegitimate daughter.”.

Qiao ruoyi came to Jiangnan on business with her daughter. Obviously, she hasn’t given up on marrying Xie Yun and becoming the mistress of the Xie Family!”

Jiang Yu was completely flustered. She held Zhou Shihui’s hand and said, “You have to help me. You Can’t let that disgusting woman, Qiao Ruoyi, succeed in her evil scheme!”

She had been in the Xie family for two years and had been ridiculed by countless people. In order to marry Xie Yun, how could she allow Qiao Ruoyi to bring Xie Yun’s daughter to ruin her plans?

..

Qiao ruoyi brought her daughter around and went to the hundred savory restaurant to look for glutinous rice.

Glutinous rice was greeting the guests in the Hundred Savory restaurant. When she saw Qiao Ruoyi coming over, she said in surprise, “Fifth miss.”

“Glutinous rice, you’re going to be a bride soon. Why are you still busy in the Hundred Savory Restaurant?”

Glutinous Rice said a little shyly, “The dowry is all prepared for me by my aunt. I can’t embroider, so I might as well greet her in the Hundred Savory restaurant. When will the empress arrive?”

“She will arrive in about a month. Don’t worry, she will be able to make it in time for your wedding.”

Glutinous rice said shyly, “Even if I can’t make it in time, I will have to change the wedding date.”

Qiao ruoyi smiled and brought Nichang to sit at a table by the river. She listened to the singing of the singing girls in the boats on the river, which had a unique charm.

When Xie Yun walked into the Hundred Savory restaurant, he saw this scene. Qiao Ruoyi brought her daughter to sit by the window, and the little girl knelt on the rattan chair.

Not long after, a man approached Qiao Ruoyi. He saw Qiao Ruoyi standing up to welcome the man with adoration in her eyes.

The little girl also called out to Luo Wei sweetly, “Daddy!”

Luo Wei hugged little nichang and said, “I heard that the glutinous rice and sugar lotus root is the signature dish in the restaurant in Jiangnan. Little Nichang loves eating glutinous rice and sugar lotus root the most, right?”

Little nichang nodded and said, “Yes, she loves eating glutinous rice and sugar lotus root.”

Qiao ruoyi said to the waiter beside her, “Then give me a serving of glutinous rice candy lotus root.”

The waiter said, “Madam, it’s really unfortunate. There’s only one serving left today. Patriarch Xie has already ordered it.”

Qiao ruoyi looked up and saw Xie Yun not far away.

Luo Wei said, “If that’s the case, then forget it. Why Don’t You Come and eat it tomorrow?”

Little Nichang nodded obediently. “Okay.”

When the dishes were served, the first dish was the glutinous rice and sweet lotus root. The waiter said, “Dear guests, the head of the Xie family said that this glutinous rice and sweet lotus root will be given to you.”

Qiao ruoyi said, “Who asked him to send the dishes out of kindness?”

Luo Wei gently shook Qiao Ruoyi’s hand and said, “Ruoyi, don’t be like this. Nichang, since that uncle has given you your favorite dish, you should go and thank him.”

Nichang got down from Luo Wei’s arms and stumbled to Xie Yun. She said, “Thank you, uncle. Thank you for the Sweet Lotus Root.”
