Lin Ru and Xiao Hongyi's faces darkened. Xiao Jinning looked aggrievedly at Xiao Hongli and said tearfully, "Uncle, if you don't like me, you can just tell me. I can leave. Please don't say those words to hurt your relationship with Dad."
"Sure enough, Jinning is Brother and Sister-in-law's sweetheart." Xiao Hongli sneered and then said, "No wonder Sister-in-law and Brother are so reluctant to recognize Rourou. She's so good at talking!"
Tang Xi was excited. There was finally a discerning person in this family!
Tang Xi followed his gaze and saw that Xiao Jinning's face had turned even darker.
Grandpa Xiao was silent and Xiao Hongli's three sons also stepped forward to stop their father. Xiao Yao said in a low voice, "Dad, don't say anything."
Xiao Hongli snorted and looked at his sons. "They're allowed to do that, but I'm not allowed to say anything?"
Tang Xi couldn't help clapping her hands and cheering. What a great man!
Xiao Hongyi, Lin Ru, and Xiao Jinning's faces darkened. Then Xiao Hongli looked at Grandpa Xiao and said, "Dad, I'm serious. Brother and Sister-in-law are willing to abandon their own flesh and blood, but I won't be so cruel as to let my niece wander outside. So just tell the public that Rourou is my biological daughter!"
Xiao Hongli emphasized the words "biological daughter" when he said this.
"She's my daughter!" Xiao Hongyi said angrily, "Xiao Hongli, don't go too far! You're not in charge of this family! "
"Well, since she's your daughter, then tell the public the truth!" Not to be outdone, Xiao Hongli immediately said, "Then tell the public that someone took the wrong child and the real phoenix wandered outside!"
"I …"
"Okay, you want to recognize her as your daughter, right?" Lin Ru suddenly stopped Xiao Hongyi who was about to speak, stared coldly at Xiao Hongli and said, "Then you recognize her! How are you going to say she's your biological daughter? Illegitimate daughter? "
Tang Xi jerked her head up and looked at Lin Ru. How could Xiao Rou have such a biological mother?
Feeling Tang Xi's gaze, Lin Ru gave her a cold look and then looked away. She looked at Xiao Hongli who didn't answer and sneered, "What? Don't you want to speak? Actually, you were just joking. Who would want to acknowledge this country bumpkin? "
Tang Xi clenched her fists and was about to speak, when she suddenly saw Xiao Jinning give her a contemptuous smile. She quickly suppressed her temper and lowered her head to continue to be a spectator.
"Sister-in-law, are you really not going to acknowledge Rourou?" At this time, Second Madam Xiao Yang Jingxian, who had been standing at the back, suddenly raised her head and asked softly.
Xiao Hongyi stood up and said coldly, "We didn't say that we won't recognize her. We just want her to stay at home as an adopted daughter. We won't mistreat her."
Grandpa Xiao slammed the crutch in his hand hard again and said angrily, "What's the difference between you and denying it?"
"Of course there's a difference!" Lin Ru said, "If she didn't admit it, she would still be a beggar on that black mountain."
"Then who should have been a beggar?" Xiao Hongli sneered and took a look at Xiao Jinning with a faint smile. "Brother and Sister-in-law, are you confused?"
"You …"
"Enough!" Xiao Yan said coldly, "Mom, Dad, just say that Rourou is Jinning's twin sister. She was taken away by someone many years ago and has just been found."
Xiao Hongyi's eyes lit up when he heard this proposal. In this way, Xiao Jinning wouldn't have to leave the Xiao Family and Xiao Rou could come back. This was a good idea.
"No!" Before Xiao Hongyi nodded, Lin Ru immediately objected. "This will have a great impact on Jinning. It took her three years to get to where she is now. We can't ruin her like this!"
"Mom!" Xiao Yan stared coldly at his mother and said coldly, "You're being unfair to Rourou."
"Yes, Mom, just listen to Brother. This is the best way." Xiao Jinning secretly hated Xiao Yan's bad idea, but she still put on a pitiful expression and said, "In this way, I won't have to leave you."
"Don't worry. I won't let you leave me." Lin Ru comforted Xiao Jinning. "If you leave, I'll leave with you."
"Dad." Yang Jingxian's gentle voice broke the noise in the hall again. She said softly, "Our family longs for a daughter like Rourou. Please let Rourou be our daughter."
Tang Xi gazed deeply at Yang Jingxian. This woman was not only gentle, beautiful, but also intelligent. More importantly, she meant that their family took in Xiao Rou not because no one wanted her, but because they longed for her to be their daughter.
Tang Xi's calm heart suddenly flowed into a warm current and was deeply surrounded by it.
If a second ago, she had wanted to enter Xiao Hongyi's house and make his house a mess, now she wanted to go to Xiao Hongli's house and enjoy this rare warmth.
"Dad, since they've said so, let's let Rourou accept them as her parents," Xiao Hongyi said impatiently when he saw that someone had accepted the hot potato.
Grandpa Xiao pondered in silence. Whether it was Xiao Hongyi's family or Xiao Hongyi's family, they were all his sons' families. He just didn't know how Rourou felt now …
Grandpa Xiao looked back at Tang Xi, his eyes full of guilt, and his voice hoarse. "Rourou, you see …"
Tang Xi looked up at everyone's faces. They all looked eager for her to choose Xiao Hongli's family.
She smiled, walked over, hugged Yang Jingxian, and called softly, "Mom."
Her voice was soft and sweet, completely different from the tit-for-tat she had with Lin Ru in the hospital. Hearing her call, Yang Jingxian's heart immediately melted. She excitedly said yes, "Oh, good girl, Mom's good girl."
Lin Ru stared at Xiao Rou who was calling Xiao Hongli "Mom" and clenched her hands.
Xiao Hongli was obviously very happy. He patted Xiao Rou on the shoulder and pretended to be unhappy. "I just said so much, but you didn't see me?"
Tang Xi smiled. Just now, Xiao Hongli had said so much. On the surface, he was arguing with Xiao Hongyi, but secretly he was seeking justice for her. She would be lying if she said she wasn't touched. She smiled, stepped forward to hug Xiao Hongli and sweetly called him "Dad". "Thank you, Dad. You made me feel warm."
"Silly girl, you are the daughter of the Xiao Family," Xiao Hongli said with a smile. "Welcome home."
Tang Xi's eyes turned red. In fact, she didn't want to go back to the Xiao Family, but at this moment, her disdain was surrounded by warmth.
The Xiaoyao brothers couldn't help laughing at such a loving scene. Xiaoyao said, "Mom, Dad, won't you let Rourou meet us?"
"What's the hurry?!" Xiao Hongli glared at Xiaoyao angrily, took Tang Xi's hand and said, "Rourou, this is your eldest brother Xiaoyao, that's your second brother Xiao Sa, and your third brother Xiao Jing."
The three brothers each came forward and gave Xiao Rou a bear hug. "Rourou, welcome home."
Xiao Jing said, "Mom can finally decorate the princess room."
