Chapter 290 Recognition
Chapter 290 Recognition
Ever since Zhang Heizi smashed the beggar's broken bowl, he was surrounded by people watching the fun, and they clapped and cheered when they saw him being beaten.
"Well played, well played."
"People like this should be beaten, bah, beast, beating your daughter is not human."
"You stinking beggar, is this guy mentally ill? He actually came here to claim a random girl."
"I think he was just starving, so he dreamed of having a daughter who runs a noodle shop. Hahahaha..."
The people around him also laughed. Zhang Heizi covered one eye and stood up: "Well, you little bitch, you actually instigated others to beat your own father. Do you believe it or not, I will go to the government to sue you."
"Go ahead and sue me. You sold me to a brothel to save your life. We agreed at the time that we would have nothing to do with each other anymore. If you want to sue me, go ahead and sue me. I'll also let everyone see my indentureship."
Zhang Heizi was immediately speechless. He muttered awkwardly, "I had no choice at that time. Look, you're doing fine now, and you didn't go to the brothel..."
"You had no choice but to sell me. What about my mother? You beat her away. Wasn't that a choice? You drank and gambled. Wasn't that a choice? You beat and scolded me since I was a child. Wasn't that a choice?"
"You..." Zhang Heizi didn't expect Yinzhu to be so eloquent. He was speechless and angry.
"You stupid girl, you have to expose my shortcomings in front of so many people, right?"
"I'm exposing your shortcomings because you have shortcomings for me to expose. You know better than anyone what you have done."
"Stop talking nonsense. Now that you are capable, you can lecture your father in public. You are enjoying yourself while I am begging for food. I want to see if your shop can still be run."
"This old bastard is so abominable."
"Yeah, isn't this a rogue?"
"But then again, he is my father after all, it is not appropriate to let him beg for food..."
"Oh, yes, Miss Yinzhu, this man is your biological father after all. You can be angry, but you can't really ignore him."
"Yes, if you ignore your father, you will be punished by God."
Seeing Yinzhu standing there stubbornly without saying anything, Liu Sheng knew that Yinzhu still hated Zhang Heizi, so he coughed lightly and spoke.
"Uncle, it's not that Miss Yinzhu is cruel, it's just that what you did was too hurtful. So if you say something soft to Yinzhu, this matter will be over."
With so many people watching, it would be impossible to really drive Zhang Heizi away. Even if Zhang Heizi could sincerely apologize, it would also be impossible to keep him.
Zhang Heizi was punched by Liu Sheng and hated him so much. How could he listen to him and apologize to Yinzhu?
He was about to curse, but Liu Sheng stopped him: "Think carefully, Yinzhu was sold by you. If she doesn't want to take care of you, there is nothing you can do. If you want to live a good life with her, you have to have an attitude."
Zhang Heizi glanced at Yinzhu, then looked at the people around who were watching the fun.
Now is not the time to show off. Once he gets into the noodle shop, he will have plenty of time to deal with this dead girl and this bastard!
He made up his mind, covered his eyes and limped to Yinzhu: "My daughter, it was all my fault before. I apologize to you. This year, I didn't have enough food to eat and warm clothes every day. You see I am like this, it can be regarded as a punishment. Please forgive me, I promise to change, okay!"
When Yinzhu heard this, tears started streaming down her face. No matter whether what Zhang Heizi said was true or false, she finally heard his apology. She had been waiting for so many years, waiting for her father to change for the better, and now she finally got what she wanted!
Seeing her crying, Liu Sheng went up to her and clumsily wiped her tears!
"Okay, stop crying, stop crying!"
Yinzhu sniffed and said, "Don't stand here, go to the backyard and rest first!"
Liu Sheng bowed to everyone present and said, "Go away, everyone!"
Lu Shian prepared a table full of fresh dishes for the Queen Mother, who was very happy with the food!
"Before I entered the palace, I often sneaked out to play, such as candied haws and sugar figurines. I like these little things. They are sweet and delicious in my mouth..."
"Alas, after I entered the palace, I could no longer eat these things. Sometimes I would ask people to buy them for me, but the taste was not as good as what I ate on the street!"
"The food in the imperial kitchen is exquisite, and the ingredients used are the best, but it lacks that flavor of life. It's okay to eat it once in a while, but if you eat it every day, you'll get tired of it, no matter how delicious it is!"
The Queen Mother was so satisfied with the meal that she talked more!
Lu Shian said: "If the Queen Mother does not mind my crude cooking skills, I am willing to cook for her!"
"You are such a good girl, I like you very much!"
"Ting'er, bring her in more often when you have nothing to do, so I'll have someone to talk to!"
"Grandson knows that the Royal Grandmother will definitely like this girl!"
"You are such a smart guy!" The Queen Mother looked at her most outstanding grandson lovingly!
"Shi'an girl, is there anything you haven't told me?"
Lu Shian was stunned, not knowing what the Queen Mother was talking about!
Seeing her expression, the Queen Mother took the initiative to say, "Should I call you Lu Shi'an?"
Hearing the Queen Mother say this, Lu Shian quickly stood up and knelt down: "I didn't mean to hide it from the Queen Mother. I thought it was just a small matter and it wouldn't prevent me from cooking!"
Hearing her say this, the Queen Mother laughed instead: "Why are you so nervous, girl? I was just asking you, look how scared you are!"
Lu Shian forced a smile. She didn’t want the empress dowager to treat the Marquis’ Mansion well because of her!
"My mother and I only recently met my father. We never dreamed that he would say he is the son of the Marquis's family!"
The Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, fate plays tricks on us. If he hadn't been kidnapped, the position of young marquis would have been his now!"
"Just like what you said, Queen Mother, fate plays tricks on us. Maybe my father is not destined to be called Young Marquis!"
"You are such an open-minded girl!"
The more the empress dowager looked at Lu Shian, the more she liked her. This girl was smart and insightful, a rare good girl!
The Queen Mother's gaze fell on Li Hongting again...
"Queen Mother, the eldest princess and the princess are asking for an audience!"
Hearing her daughter coming, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "Quick, let her in. I haven't seen Qianqian for two days!"
Lu Shian had just stood up when he heard the princess and the county lord coming, and he quickly saluted!
After everyone in the room greeted each other, the Queen Mother warmly asked everyone to take a seat!
"Shian girl, please sit down too!"
Lu Shian bowed with a smile before sitting down in the corner!
As soon as Su Qianqian came in, she saw Lu Shian. She stared at Lu Shian in surprise, as if to make sure that she was not seeing the wrong person!
