Chapter 246: Settling Mo Yuan
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Yijia felt that she must have guessed correctly, but it was normal. She had been abandoned by her parents in her previous life.
The difference was that she had no feelings for her parents. Mo Yuan had been with her mistress for ten years. She must be very sad, right?
She carefully observed Mo Yuan’s expression and heard her firm voice. “No, because you finally came.”
Shen Yijia had a headache. “Then have you ever thought that I’m not your little miss at all? Actually, you’ve got the wrong person. I have parents.”
She was occupying the original host’s body now, so she did have parents, right? Although one of them died and the other died, it didn’t change the fact.
If the person Mo Yuan was talking about really existed, then the original host was already eleven years old back then. At that time, she could already remember.
However, other than the memory of Madam Wang’s accident, Shen Yijia was very sure that the original host had never lost her memory.
Mo Yuan glanced at Shen Yijia and lowered her head to continue combing her hair. “Young Miss has never been wrong.”
Shen Yijia thought, “Your mistress has never been wrong. What does this have to do with you mistaking her for someone else?”
After that, Shen Yijia asked many more questions. Mo Yuan would answer most of them, but when it came to the lady she mentioned, she knew nothing.
Shen Yijia suspected that it was not that she did not know, but that she was unwilling to say it.
However, it was not completely fruitless.
For example, she found out that Mo Yuan was picked up by the lady she mentioned when she was five years old.
This characteristic of picking people up from the streets did seem similar to her.
“Wait, no. I don’t like to pick up people, but others like to be picked up by me.” she thought.
Little Mo Yuan lived with her young lady for ten years and had grown up to be fifteen years old.
And their peaceful lives had only lasted ten years.
At midnight one night, her lady suddenly woke her up from her sleep and brought her to a place where she told her to wait for her before leaving.
Once she left, she never appeared again.
It wasn’t that Mo Yuan hadn’t looked for her before. At first, she waited for a month but didn’t see her mistress return, so she went to look for her.
She spent a year searching everywhere the two of them had gone, but she still couldn’t find them.
When she returned to her original place, the abandoned courtyard was already occupied by the potter.
She was worried that her mistress would not be able to find her when she returned, so she stayed there ever since.
Shen Yijia was shocked.
With her little brain, she could understand that there were only two possibilities in this situation.
Firstly, Mo Yuan had been abandoned.
Secondly, something had happened to the lady she mentioned.
It was possible that she was no longer alive.
So the question was, how did Little Miss get involved?
With that thought in mind, she asked directly.
Mo Yuan helped Shen Yijia put on the wooden hairpin and said, “Little Miss is Young Miss’s daughter.”
Shen Yijia fell silent. She had returned to this dead end.
She thought for a moment and asked the last question. “Is your lady’s surname Wang?”
The original host’s mother’s surname was Wang.
However, she also knew that the possibility was slim. Madam Wang was a typical daughter of a wealthy family when she was young. It was impossible for her to bring Little Mo Yuan around for ten years.
Moreover, the timeline did not match. Fifteen years ago, the original host was one year old. Madam Wang died when the original host was five years old.
Moreover, Mo Yuan’s skills were clearly taught by her mistress.
Mo Yuan shook her head. “Young Miss never said that. She only asked me to call her Young Miss.”
Shen Yijia’s head hurt. She decided not to dwell on it. Perhaps one day, Mo Yuan would find her true Young Miss.
It wouldn’t be her anyway.
However, there was something she had to make clear to Mo Yuan.
“Don’t call me Little Miss anymore.” It always made her feel strange. How was she young?
Mo Yuan looked at her in confusion.
“Just follow Rooster and the others and call me Young Madam or Miss. Choose one.”
“Yes, Miss.” Mo Yuan chose the latter without hesitation.
Shen Yijia nodded in satisfaction and made one last request. “In the future, when I’m with my husband, stay away from us!”
Actually, that was the point she wanted to make.
Mo Yuan did not immediately agree. She thought for a few seconds before saying, “If Miss is in danger, I’m afraid I won’t be able to save you in time.”
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “My husband is here. Do you think you’re better than him?”
Shen Yijia was too embarrassed to say that she was stronger than Mo Yuan. If she met someone she couldn’t defeat, wouldn’t Mo Yuan be courting death if she came up to them? She would just be throwing her life away.
Mo Yuan’s usually expressionless face cracked. After a while, she said, “I understand.”
Hearing this answer, Shen Yijia almost cried tears of joy.
If Mo Yuan was more annoying, she would have hit her.
However, Mo Yuan always acted like Shen Yijia was the most important person in the world. She could not bring herself to do it.
It was great to resolve this peacefully.
After dealing with Mo Yuan, Shen Yijia glanced at Mo Yuan’s handiwork in the mirror. She shook her head and praised casually, “You combed it well.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to leave.
However, before she could walk out, an old woman entered with a tray.
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes at Furball, who was following behind the old woman.
“Madam, Young Master Shen has made pheasant soup. He specially instructed me to send it over when you wake up.”
Song Jingchen didn’t expose his identity. Everyone here called him Young Master Shen.
The old woman placed the porcelain cup on the table and placed a pair of chopsticks on it. Without waiting for Shen Yijia to respond, she ran away.
She even tripped over the threshold.
Shen Yijia burst out laughing. It must’ve been hard on her not to spill the soup since Furball was following her.
Ignoring Furball, who was wagging its tail vigorously under the table, she walked over and opened the porcelain lid.
A rich fragrance of meat instantly wafted out, and her stomach rumbled.
An entire pheasant was stewed in a pot of soup. There were about three bowls worth of soup in there.
The soup was golden, and there was a layer of oil floating on it.
Even though Shen Yijia was not as greedy as the others in the city, she subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
However, Shen Yijia frowned as she watched. There was an entire pheasant in the stew.
It was still intact inside, without even a piece of meat missing. This meant that Song Jingchen hadn’t eaten any of it himself.
She looked at the envious Little Furball who was in distress before turning her gaze to Mo Yuan.
To be honest, if no one saw her, she would have been able to eat alone with a clear conscience. But now, she felt a little embarrassed.
However, if they were to share it, her beautiful husband would not be able to eat it. Moreover, her beautiful husband had personally cooked it, so she could not bear to part with it.
Shen Yijia tugged at her hair in frustration. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she asked Mo Yuan, “Do you know how to make chicken soup?”
“Yes.”
“Then let’s go.” Shen Yijia covered the soup pot and asked Mo Yuan to follow her.
As for Furball, the tiger’s body almost rubbed against Shen Yijia’s legs while it walked.
