A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

Xin Xin nodded. “I see. Mother, it’s late. Rest early.”

“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll go and rest now. Sigh, I’m old. You don’t want me to go anywhere,” the empress dowager muttered as she returned to her room.

Xin Xin stood rooted to the ground speechlessly. Was it appropriate for the Empress Dowager to say such things? She was just concerned about the Empress Dowager. How was that disdain?

!!

That night, be it Madam He, Ning Yue, or the Liu family, it was an exciting night.

They had acknowledged each other. They were originally family, and now they were even closer.

Ning Yue was in shock all night. The world was really that small. As she did not sleep the entire night, she went out the next day with dark circles under her eyes.

“Yueyue, what’s wrong? Didn’t you sleep well last night?” Jiang Ying asked with heartache.

Ning Yue looked at Jiang Ying and suddenly thought of something. She asked him, “Did you already know that my mother was also from the Liu family?”

“No, I really don’t know. I swear!” Jiang Ying quickly waved his hand.

He really did not know that Ning Yue had such a deep relationship with the Liu family. He only knew that Ning Yue’s mother, who had passed away early, was the daughter of the Liu family, but he did not know that Madam He was also from the Liu family.

No, she shouldn’t be called Madam He now. She should be Madam Liu now.

“This world is so small. My biological mother gave birth to me, and my adoptive mother should actually be someone I call Aunt. Oh my god!” The more Ning Yue thought about it, the more she felt that this world was a fantasy.

“Isn’t this good?” Jiang Ying asked.

“It’s quite good. I’m just more shocked,” Ning Yue said.

When Jiang Ying heard this, he couldn’t help but reach out and stroke Ning Yue’s hair. “What’s there to be shocked about?”

“Jiang Ying, thank you. Thank you for the surprise,” Ning Yue said.

Jiang Ying’s gift to Old Master Ning could no longer be described as precious. He gave her a chance to acknowledge her family!

They would not be bullied in the entire Laifu Village, Laifu Town, and even the entire fief of Prince Jin.

“We’re family. Don’t say such unfamiliar things,” Jiang Ying said.

Ning Yue was about to say something when Yuan Hui appeared. “Yueyue, I have something to tell you.”

When Jiang Ying saw that it was Yuan Hui, he hurriedly shielded Ning Yue behind him. “Why are you looking for Ning Yue?”

“Of course I have something to discuss. Please excuse us, Prince Jiang,” Yuan Hui said.

Hearing Yuan Hui asking for alone time with her, Jiang Ying was unhappy. “What’s so shameful about it? Why do you want me to leave?”

Ning Yue comforted Jiang Ying in amusement and whispered in his ear, “Alright, it’s the same if I tell you later. Go back and wait for me.”

Jiang Ying did not hear what Ning Yue said at all. He felt a wave of heat in his ear.

“Go on, go back first,” Ning Yue said.

Jiang Ying nodded stiffly and walked back mechanically. He only came back to his senses after a long walk. He stroked his ears and grinned.

Ning Yue watched Jiang Ying walk away before asking Yuan Hui, “Uncle Yuan, why are you looking for me?”

“Your biological mother is from Luzhou.” Yuan Hui’s tone was very certain.

“Yes, my biological mother is from Luzhou. Why are you suddenly talking about this?” Ning Yue looked at Yuan Hui in confusion.

Yuan Hui sighed. “I told you that my little sister was adopted by County Governor Liu.”

Ning Yue nodded. “Yes, you once said that you’ve found County Deputy Liu? Or do you need my uncle’s help?”

When Yuan Hui investigated his little sister’s whereabouts, the clues were cut off in Luzhou. Although the Liu family was gone, her grandfather used to be the County Deputy of Luzhou. He was clear on this.

Wait…

County Deputy Liu?

Ning Yue’s eyes widened. The County Deputy Yuan Hui was talking about was her grandfather?

“Uncle Yuan, is that what I think?” Ning Yue asked with a trembling voice.

This world was really too small! She didn’t know how many times she had sighed like this.

“Yes, that’s right. County Deputy Liu, who adopted my little sister back then, is your grandfather.” As he spoke, Yuan Hui took out a letter.

This was the result of the investigation by the guards he had sent yesterday.

Ning Yue took the letter and opened it. The time of Liu Yun’s disappearance and the time of County Chief Liu’s adoption were clearly written in it.

It recorded when she got married, had children, and died. Liu Yun’s life was written in the letter.
