The old lady was old and didn't want to worry so much. She also learned to turn a blind eye.
However, when it came to the interests of the whole family, this woman who had lived for more than half a century had the demeanor of a matriarch.
"It's not easy to meet all of you. Since everyone is here today, I have a few things to tell you."
Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks and listened to the old lady's arrangement.
"One is Ruoxin!" As she spoke, the old lady looked at the obedient girl beside her, her eyes brimming with tears. "Ruoxin's true identity is my Qing 'er!"
The table was in an uproar!
Apart from Yuan Xuan and Mu Chenyan, Yuan Tian had already known about this outcome. Everyone else gasped without exception.
Mu Chenyan and Yuan Tian looked at each other. They did not know who had leaked this information to the Old Mistress, nor did they understand why the Old Mistress was telling them about this at this time.
温雅's face was pale and her whole body was trembling. She looked at Shu Qinger and then at the old lady and asked in a trembling voice, "Grandma, what are you talking about?"
Yuan Tangzhong was also very surprised. "Mother, where are you feeling unwell? Why did you suddenly say something like that? "
Yuan Ran was timid. She could not help but think of the murder case when Qinger was mentioned. She exclaimed softly and did not dare to interrupt.
"It's a long story!" The old lady said as she pulled Qinger's hand. Tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes. She quickly wiped them away. "I'm not talking nonsense, and I'm not confused! I'll tell you the ins and outs of this matter later! "
"Now that Qing 'er has been found, I can die in peace. Now that I've seen Hongyan, it can be considered that I've completed her request!"
Hong Yan was Shu Qinger's grandmother. She was the one who had entrusted Qinger to her good friend.
Everyone knew that the old lady was nostalgic. Qinger's matter had always been her sore point, but she still couldn't accept this change. The situation was a little complicated.
Yuan Zhe and his father looked at each other. They didn't dare to say too much at this banquet. Since the Old Mistress already knew about such a big matter, Yuan Xuan must have known about it as well!
温雅 asked in a trembling voice, "Who's the one who died?"
Her fearful eyes fell on Shu Qinger.
The old mistress was a little excited, and her voice trembled. "It's the real Ruoxin!"
"That child pretended to be Qinger. When she was hospitalized in Luo Hai, everyone thought that she had an abnormal temperament and memory because of her illness. No one noticed anything amiss!"
The few women at the table began to whisper. Mu Chenyan could tell that everyone except her knew that Qinger had stayed in Zong He Sanatorium for a period of time.
Because of this, no one doubted the changes in Zhao Ruoxin when she returned to Luo Hai.
What's more, Qinger had been studying abroad since she was a child, so she didn't have much contact with her family.
They thought that Qinger was sick and her mood had changed greatly, affecting her personality and temper. Her memory was also a little messed up and she couldn't remember her childhood. Who would have thought that she was an adopted daughter?
When Mu Chenyan saw Shu Qinger's provocative gaze falling on her, her smug smile was filled with sarcasm.
Chenyan seemed to understand a little. This ambitious woman was slowly trying to convince the Old Mistress that she was Qinger because of Yuan Xuan.
Yuan Xuan had promised to let her stay in the country, but in the end, she was still worried.
In this family, only Old Madam could suppress Yuan Xuan, so she sought protection from Old Madam.
Once their identities were changed, Old Madam would definitely be reluctant to let her go to Italy.
Yuan Xuan's deep gaze fell on Shu Qinger, and he said faintly, "Grandmother, do you want to clarify Qinger's identity to the outside world?"
Old Madam nodded, but she seemed to be a little hesitant. She said in a tone that asked for advice, "Today, I called everyone here to discuss this matter."
She looked at Qinger and scanned the entire family. "After all, the old case had a bad influence. If we bring it up now, I'm afraid that the outside world won't be good.
"But Qinger is finally back, and the Yuan Family still has influence in Luo Hai. Can we not give her an identity?"
Old Madam was not asking for everyone's opinion when she said this.
Everyone's gaze fell on Yuan Xuan. Qinger also looked a little expectant, waiting for Yuan Xuan to speak.
At this time, Mu Chenyan felt pressured on Yuan Xuan's behalf. She quietly looked down and did not look at Yuan Xuan.
"If she only needs an identity, then she can continue being Ruoxin. In a few days, it'll be the Moon Festival, and all the famous families in Luo Hai will gather. It's the Yuan Family's turn to host the Moon Festival this year, so I think we should introduce Ruoxin to the world at that time. "
Yuan Xuan held the ivory chopsticks in his hand and lightly touched the table. "Grandmother, it's good that you know Qinger's identity. Their identities are essentially the same, and they'll stay to accompany me. Why should we care about a title?"
When Old Madam heard this, she felt that it made sense. It was difficult for her own family to accept such an incident at this time, so outsiders would only make irresponsible remarks.
Qinger's gaze was a little disappointed.
She did not care about this title, but Yuan Xuan's attitude was equivalent to leaving her out of his heart.
"Brother Xuan, I …"
"Whether it's Qinger or Ruoxin, we'll treat you like a younger sister."
Yuan Xuan suddenly interrupted Shu Qinger's words, causing this ambitious woman to be momentarily angry and aggrieved.
"I'm everyone's younger sister!" Yuan Tian, the youngest child in the family, was dissatisfied and muttered softly.
Lu Shan was afraid that this wretched girl would say something and cause trouble again, so she secretly pinched her under the table.
Yuan Tian's eyes were filled with tears from the pinch, and the corners of her mouth drooped down. She pouted her little mouth in grievance. "Mother, doesn't our hospital have a DNA test department?"
Lu Shan was confused for a moment, so she asked, "Yes, why?"
"Let's do a DNA test tomorrow. I suspect that I'm a gift from topping up my phone!" Yuan Tian looked as if she had nothing left to live for.
Lu Shan was amused and annoyed at the same time. She sneaked a glance at Yuan Tangshuo. "It's all your fault!"
Yuan Tangshuo did not think much of it. He felt that Yuan Tian had an extremely good temperament, and the Yuan Family did not like her for so many years. It was not easy for this child to grow up strong and healthy.
On the other hand, Qinger, an outsider, was extremely ambitious. Yuan Tangshuo looked at Yuan Xuan and Qinger and sighed softly. "Mother is muddle-headed and stubborn. It's not a good thing to keep this girl at home!"
When Lu Shan heard her usually quiet husband sigh like this, she glared at him. "Don't make Old Madam unhappy at this time. Father has spoiled her rotten. Who in this family would dare to disobey her? This is Yuan Xuan's business, so don't butt in! "
Yuan Zhe had been standing at the side without saying anything. He looked at Qinger and suddenly understood how sinister and scheming Mu Chenwu was. He had probably known this woman's true identity a long time ago, which was why he had done everything possible to send her into the Yuan Family to mess things up.
