Chapter 130 Recognition 1
Xue Qing thought about Wu Tong's matter and decided not to explain it to Liu for the time being.
After carefully comparing many clues, Zhang Liang finally determined that the youngest daughter of Xia Cheng's family best matched the age and other information of the lost child of the Duke of Zhenguo.
Although he was excited, he was still cautious. After all, if something went wrong, he would not be able to take the responsibility.
Xia Cheng opened the door and looked at the man in brocade robes in front of him, his heart beating wildly: "What can I do for you, sir?"
Zhang Liang clasped his hands together and said, "Is this the Xia family?"
Xia Cheng nodded and had a guess in his mind.
"Can you take a step to speak?"
Xia Cheng invited Zhang Liang in, and saw two other men in brocade robes standing not far away.
Xia Liushi in the room was so excited that she almost twisted the handkerchief in her hand.
When Zhang Liang saw Xia Xuelian, he did not have the expected feeling in his heart. She had the appearance of a beautiful girl from a small family. Perhaps because she grew up in the countryside, although she was a little timid, she was more meticulously taken care of than the average country girl.
It seems that this couple is kind-hearted and immediately decided to take their family of three to the capital.
As the carriage slowly drove into the capital, Xia Xuelian set foot on this prosperous place for the first time. She looked out the window at the people coming and going and the busy scene outside, unable to hide her excitement. This was the life she wanted to live.
She knew that this trip to Beijing meant she was completely saying goodbye to the countryside and to the sister she had always hated.
When she arrived at the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, Xia Xuelian was deeply shocked by the scene before her.
The beautiful courtyard, exquisite pavilions, and flower-filled gardens were all too much for her to take in. She held Xia Cheng and Xia Liu's hands tightly, her heart filled with excitement and nervousness.
Xia Cheng and Xia Liu were also very excited. Although they had a hint of fear in their hearts, they were more expectant and longing for the future.
The recognition session finally arrived, and Old Madam Xue walked out slowly surrounded by the crowd.
She looked at Xia Xuelian standing below, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. She thought of her granddaughter who had been missing for many years, and she missed her and felt a little guilty.
But because of her, the old Duke resigned from the court, traveled around the world, and has not returned yet.
Xia Xuelian lowered her head. Fortunately, her parents were in front of her, so she didn't have to expose her helplessness in front of everyone.
Lady Wang, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, was extremely excited. She looked at Xia Xuelian with her head down and could feel her helplessness at the moment, which made her feel even more distressed.
The child should have been raised like a star, but how much suffering did she suffer in the countryside these years? How did her adoptive parents treat her? Although the guard Zhang Liang wrote to say that the couple treated the child very well, how could he let it go without seeing it?
Duke Xue He of Zhenguo stood at the bottom, looking at Xia Cheng and his wife, and saw a girl behind them who might be his biological daughter. But he couldn't see her clearly because he was looking down.
The Xiacheng couple were so nervous that they didn't know what to do. Zhang Liang reminded them to bow. They knelt down hurriedly and said, "I pay my respects to the old lady, the Duke of Zhenguo, and the Madam."
Xia Xuelian followed and knelt down.
The old lady sat in the main seat: "Help him up quickly"
Zhang Liang helped Xia Cheng up, and the maids and servants also helped Xia Liushi and Xia Xuelian up.
At this time, the room was full of the masters' personal servants. The old lady suppressed her emotions and asked, "Madam Rong, take Miss Xia to the side hall to rest for a while."
