Chapter 338 Recognition between Grandmother and Granddaughter

Hearing that Qin Wanru had come here, Rui’an Great Elder Princess especially asked Nanny Gao to pick her up.

After arriving inside, Qin Wanru gave a respectful greeting to Rui’an Great Elder Princess, and then she went aside quickly and pointed at the person behind her with her finger. She said to Rui’an Great Elder Princess, “Great Elder Princess, do you know this person?”

Rui’an Great Elder Princess raised her eyes and fell her eyes on the middle-aged man in front of her, frowning. After so many years, she could not recognize him for a while. She looked at him up and down for a few times and shook her head.

Nanny Gao on the side was excited, and couldn’t help but tremble and ask, “You… Are you Shao Huai?”

“Yes, it’s Shao Huai. Nanny Gao, you still know me!” The father of Qu Le, Shao Huai, kneeled in front of Rui’an Great Elder Princess, and said excitedly to Nanny Gao.

“Shao Huai?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess repeated and recalled on the name, and suddenly her face changed. She stood up immediately, and walked in front of Shao Huai in a few steps. She looked at his face carefully. “You… Are you that Shao Huai who follows your Childe?”

“Yes, princess. It’s me. I’m Shao Huai. I have been looking for our Childe for so many years and have never given up!”

Shao Huai burst into tears. For so many years, he wandered and always wanted to find his Childe back with a belief in his heart. Now that he knew that the Childe had passed away, how could he not feel distraught and desperate.

He was a servant of Heir of Duke Xing and served Heir of Duke Xing from an early age. He had always been loyal to Heir of Duke Xing and that was one important reason why the old Duke Xing sent him to find Heir of Duke Xing.

“You… You have found him?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess held back the tears in her eyes with great efforts and said with trembling voice, looking at him with great expectations.

“Great Elder Princess, I don’t find the Childe. He has passed away… for a long time, just after that rebellion…” Shao Huai cried, wiping his tears.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess shook her body, and almost fell down. Nanny Gao reached out and gave her a hand, choking with sobs, “Princess, princess, don’t be too sad… This thing… This thing has been guessed by us…”

In fact, after having no news for so many years, everyone basically thought that it was impossible for the former Heir of Duke Xing to be alive. But guess was a guess. Getting such an accurate piece of news still made Rui’an Great Elder Princess felt a great beat on her heart.

She, a white-haired person, always sent away black-haired people around her. When she was young, she lost her husband. And when she was in her middle age, she lost her only daughter, and now she only had Hao’er, who was brought here by her from Duke Xing’s Mansion forcibly. She thought what Hao’er said that day: if his father was still in Duke Xing’s Mansion, how could it be such a thing.

The old woman in Duke Xing’s Mansion tortured her so much and she even wanted to wipe out the only miss of Hao’er. She really thought that there was no person in the first child’s family of Duke Xing’s Mansion.

“Princess, I’ve found the young Miss!” Seeing that Rui’an Great Elder Princess felt so sad, Shao Huai said quickly.

“Little… Miss?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess calmed down and finally succeeded to stand still. Then she asked hurriedly, “Where, where?”

For so many years, Rui’an Great Elder Princess had also been sending people to find her. She always thought that they were alive, or at least the girl was alive.

“Great Elder Princess, this is the young miss, the young miss left by Childe at that time. She was adopted by Ningyuan Army General until now.” Shao Huai turned back his eyes and said, looking at Qin Wanru.

“Second Miss Qin?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess gazed at her with sharp eyes.

Nanny Gao helped her sit down.

“Come here!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess waved her hands to Qin Wanru.

Qin Wanru nodded and walked to her slowly. When she walked in front of Rui’an Great Elder Princess and was about to salute, she was pulled by Great Elder Princess suddenly and she looked at Qin Wanru with her sharp eyes. Her eyes became red with tears all of a sudden.

“Princess, these eyes really look like our infanta!” Nanny Gao’s tears fell down and she said, looking at Qin Wanru.

“What is going on?” Great Elder Princess asked. Her eyes trembled slightly with expectancy and sadness.

“Great Elder Princess, this is mine. It was said that originally I was taken by my mother but we were separated by the rebels. My mother disappeared and my father found me back and entrusted me to Old Madam Qin. At that time there was a seal hanging around my neck!” Qin Wanru took out a small box from the hands of Yujie and opened. There was a bluegrass seal in it.

“This, this is Hua’er’s…” Seeing this familiar seal, Rui’an Great Elder Princess couldn’t help crying anymore. Her tears fell down one by one and she took the box with both of her trembling hands. At this time, she was not a princess with high status, but a mother who lost her daughter.

Qin Wanru put the small box in the hands of Rui’an Great Elder Princess, and her eyes became red. She bit her lips and pressed down the sadness in her heart, bursting out a smile. “Great Elder Princess, please see it!”

The seal was held by Great Elder Princess, and she looked at it up and down. The more she looked at it, the more tears burst out from her eyes, blurring her sight. How could she not recognize this seal? This was her daughter’s seal, which was carved by her dead husband to her daughter. So she cherished it so much that she always took it with her.

If people wrote or drew, they would leave a mark on their works. So she would definitely use this seal to put a mark on her works.

“Great Elder Princess, this is really the seal of Infanta Qinghua. You see… here. The lost small corner was because it was accidentally dropped when our infanta was still young!” When Nanny Gao said this, she felt very sad. She cried and pointed at the small missing corner.

Qin Wanru glanced at it. There was indeed a small missing corner on the seal. She had seen it before, but she didn’t care about it. She hadn’t even thought that it was dropped by her mother when her mother was young.

“This is Qinghua’s seal! Are there… other things?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess raised up her head and asked Qin Wanru, looking at her expectantly.

“There was still a Fenghua Glazed Cup!” Qin Wanru thought, biting her lips.

“Where! hurry! take it and let me see…” Rui’an Great Elder Princess became excited and said anxiously.

“Fenghua Glazed Cup is in the hand of Prince Chen. When I was in Jiangzhou, Prince Chen said that he was finding Fenghua Glazed Cup. And he heard that there was one in our mansion, so later it fell into his hand,” Qin Wanru said vaguely.

“Go, send someone to Prince Chen’s Mansion and take that Fenghua Glazed Cup here!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess was excited and stretched out her hand to pull Qin Wanru. At the same time, she instructed Nanny Gao to do this thing.

“Okay, princess, I will send someone to Prince Chen’s Mansion immediately!” Nanny Gao said and was about to go away.

But she was stopped by Qin Wanru. “Great Elder Princess, Prince Chen Your Highness is now in the palace. I am afraid that he is not in his mansion. Even if you send someone to his mansion, it is impossible for you to find him.”

Her words reminded Rui’an Great Elder Princess. She swiped her tears and nodded, asking Nanny Gao to find Chu Liuchen after a few days. Until now Rui’an Great Elder Princess believed that Qin Wanru was her granddaughter.

Since Fenghua Glazed Cup was in the hand of Chu Liuchen, it must exist. Chu Liuchen was not the kind of person who could be deceived. If she talked something nonsense, not only she but also Chu Liuchen would not forgive her.

“Wanru, you have tasted much bitterness. Quickly, let grandmother take a look, let grandmother take a look at you clearly!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess looked at the beautiful eyes of Qin Wanru and suddenly couldn’t control her tears. She hugged Qin Wanru immediately.

Qin Wanru couldn’t control her emotion too at this time, and her tears fell down. After two lifetimes, she finally found a family member. Such a feeling of being loved, even if she knew this thing early, made her cry.

The two were almost crying together.

Nanny Gao and Shao Huai hurriedly persuaded them aside, and finally managed to stop the two from crying.

After sitting down again, Qin Wanru sat next to the Rui’an Great Elder Princess, and her hands were tightly pulled by Rui’an Great Elder Princess. When she saw the tears on Qin Wanru’s little childish face, Rui’an Great Elder Princess, who was always very strong, wanted to cry again.

Her granddaughter, not only the Miss of blood relations in Duke Xing’s Mansion, but also the blood of the imperial family, wandered to Jiangzhou and even became the daughter of someone else.

She had also paid attention to Qin Wanru before, knowing that she was not the daughter of Madam Di and the malicious Madam Di even wanted to hurt her. She even sent a man to do harm to Qin Wanru when she was in Jingxin Monastery. She prepared to make her dizzy and sell her.

When she heard this thing, Rui’an Great Elder Princess wanted to revenge for Qin Wanru, but she was stopped by Nanny Gao because it was unreasonable for her to do so. Although Rui’an Great Elder Princess was very exalted, she couldn’t interfere with others’ things at her will. It was improper for her to care about this thing.

Now thinking about this thing, Qin Wanru was her granddaughter. Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ heart ached and she almost wanted to slap on the face of Madam Di hardly.

“Great Elder Princess …” Qin Wanru bit her lips, wiped her tears and said.

“Miss, why do you still call Great Elder Princess? She is your grandmother. Our princess has been looking forward to hearing from you. She has never given up seeking for you for so many years!” Nanny Gao interrupted her with a smile and reminded her.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess looked at her expectantly.

“Grandmother!” Qin Wanru said in a low voice. After saying this, there were great waves in her heart and she couldn’t stop her tears.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess was also like this. This “grandmother” from Qin Wanru made her cry again because her heart was aching.

It was after a long time that the two stopped crying.

“Wanru, after you recognize your ancestors, you don’t need to live in Duke Xing’s Mansion. Since that old madam doesn’t like you and Hao’er, you and he can live with me together. And later you don’t need to surname Shao, just follow my surname. Chu is the royal surname. How could they bully you later!”

Rui’an Great Elder Princess wiped her tears and said angrily. Both her own daughter and son-in-law were in trouble because of Old Madam of Duke Xing. She cherished much her own niece but treated Qinghua as a servant girl. She even didn’t take the identity of Qinghua and her own identity into consideration.

Whenever she thought about this, Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ heart ached hardly. She brought up her daughter with great efforts but her daughter was tortured by others in such ways. And they finally even needed to go away to other places. The tragedy of her family was due to that malicious old woman.

“Grandmother, just call me Zhuozhuo. My grandmother in Qin’s Mansion always called me like that!” Qin Wanru said softly.

“What!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ hands were trembling and the cup of tea on the table fell to the ground, smashed into pieces…
