His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 1]

Chapter 180: Lin Zhou - The Real Daughter's Identity

Xiao Fang couldn't help but exclaim, "What a coincidence!" The other three agreed with her and nodded their head at the same time.

What was the odd that this thing could happen in real life? It seemed like the real daughter was extremely lucky!

The man that would soon become the baby's father quickly prepared a wet nurse and maidservants for the baby at the very same night.

It was easy to find a wet nurse, but he needed to have an explanation about where the baby was coming from.

Without the mother, where was the baby coming from?

The servants and maidservants that he had brought from his hometown were loyal.

At that time, they made an excuse that it was the daughter of the man's concubine.

No one knew that he only had one wife with no concubine back at his hometown in the Capital, so it was safe to go with that excuse.

Later, they could make up another excuse that the mother was dead and it was taken in as the daughter of the main wife.

Sooner or later, the fact would be blurred if no one talked about this matter anymore.

The man knew that his wife was on the verge of depression after losing the baby and she would be happy when she received this lovely news.

Without further delay, he quickly sent a message to his hometown and let his wife know about the new baby.

After a few weeks, the wife arrived in the Capital and she fell in love at first sight to the baby!

She took him as her real daughter, despite the husband's fear that she wouldn't accept the baby.

After all, the man didn't want this baby to become a substitute.

When the husband saw how attached his wife to the baby, he sighed in relief. At least, his wife finally had the will to live.

His son was quite obedient and despite knowing the baby's real identity, he took the baby as his own sister.

He knew how heartbroken his mother was, so even though at first he was unwilling, he still accepted his parents' arrangement.

Lin Jian sighed and said, "At least, she receives the love that she deserves! Tao Gu Gu is correct... as long as she's happy, I won't bother her. Have you ever inquire about the baby's name?"

Tao Gu Gu shook her head. "No... I don't dare to ask her name, because I'm afraid that I will be too attached to her..." She admitted.

Tao Gu Gu had actually wanted to ask for a few times but she held herself back.

She didn't want the baby to be involved with her messy background, thus, she was happy by looking at the baby growing up.

It was more than enough.

Lin Jian could only nod his head helplessly. "At least now... can you finally tell us the man's identity?" Lin Jian begged Tao Gu Gu solemnly.

"Her father is quite successful now. He kept getting a promotion and he currently holds a quite high position in the Han Kingdom..." Tao Gu Gu trailed off.

She would never guess that the soft-hearted man was actually a great official that was able to climb the leader easily and he held an important position in the kingdom.

Xiao Fang asked excitedly, "A minister or a general? Oh, wait! Tao Gu Gu said that he had no martial arts skills... The most suitable position should be a minister, then? He must be a scholar... If yes, it will be better. My father has a lot of friends in that field. It will be easier for me to help Lin Jian find out about her."
