Chapter 33: The Lao couple

The next day, He Ran arrived at Jinghong Tower an hour early, and Li Jinxiu also came, bringing with him an eleven or twelve-year-old girl. This was her granddaughter, Lu Chang.

Lu Chang has a round face, and his eyebrows are curved when he smiles, which is very attractive.

"This is my third youngest's daughter. Who do you think she looks like?"

He Ran smiled: "Follow grandma."

"Yeah, I'll just say that she's the most attuned to me. This girl has a strong body. I'll let her practice shooting for you later."

Lu Chang looked at He Ran curiously. She wanted to call her sister, but when she saw that He Ran and her grandmother were getting along with each other, they looked like they were the same generation. Could they be distant relatives of the family?She did know that some of her relatives were the youngest, but they were very senior.

He Ran looked at her body and saw that she had nothing. She had forgotten that she was now an ancestor. She had to give a greeting gift to her juniors when she saw them. She didn't prepare in advance this time, so she had to do it next time.

"Your grandmother and I have been friends for many years. If you don't know what to call me, just call me by my name, or Miss He."

She actually wanted Lu Chang to call her sister. She was so young, and she wanted to pretend to be young, but Li Jinxiu would be embarrassed, so she'd better call her Miss He.

"Miss He, you are so beautiful." The little girl's voice was sweet and waxy.

"You look good too." He Ran responded with a smile.

Li Jinxiu glared at Lu Chang: "Nothing big or small."

Lu Chang shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice: "It just looks good. I was right."

He Ran smiled and said to Li Jinxiu: "It's almost time and they should be here. Let someone go and greet them."

Li Jinxiu stood up and said to Lu Chang, "Go and take a look."

Then he turned around and explained to He Ran: "Lao Guanghuai's wife, whose surname is Shangguan, is from the same village as A Chang's grandmother, and they are sisters across the house from each other."

Only then did He Ran know the reason why she brought Lu Chang here.

Seeing Lu Chang go out, Li Jinxiu continued: "A Chang lost her health since she was a child. Like A Zhen, she grew up beside me."

He Ran didn't expect that this little girl with a sunny face was actually a child without a mother.

"She was well raised by you."

This kind of goodness comes from the inside out. The little girl has a kind of superiority and confidence that comes from her bones, which cannot be faked.

Lu Chang went out, and after a while, he saw a couple walking into Jinghong Tower one after another. Lu Chang greeted them and blessed them: "Great aunt and uncle, you are here, my grandmother is already here. Yes, I’m inside now.”

Mrs. Shangguan's eyes were filled with smiles. She took Lu Chang's hand and said, "This is Ah Chang. You recognize my aunt, but if you were outside, my aunt wouldn't dare to recognize you. It's really a transformation of women. We Ah Chang has grown taller and more beautiful!"

Lu Chang also laughed together, but she saw a trace of sadness in Mrs. Shangguan's eyes. It disappeared in a flash, and Lu Chang thought he had seen it wrong.

Seeing the couple walking in with Lu Chang, He Ran knew that Lao Guanghuai and Mrs. Shangguan had two of them paid tribute to Li Jinxiu. Lao Guanghuai didn't squint his eyes, but Mrs. Shangguan noticed a little girl sitting in the corner of the room. She looked a year or two older than A Chang. Could it be that she was also the grandson of the Marquis of Wu'an. Miss?

Li Jinxiu chatted with the two for a few words, and then changed the topic: "Recently, Mr. He Wenqing of Zhending Mansion came to the capital. I heard that the Lao family and the He family are related by marriage?"

The smile on Lao Guanghuai's face suddenly disappeared. Mrs. Shangguan was stunned for a moment and bit her lip.

Li Jinxiu's eyes swept across their faces, and she just looked at them without asking any more questions.

Lao Guanghuai's voice was calm, but he could hear the coldness he was holding back: "I don't know, the old lady, that my daughter has passed away many years ago, and He Wenqing has married another woman. The two families of Lao and He are no longer in-laws."

"Oh, that's it." Li Jinxiu nodded, "Don't you have a granddaughter? Although the granddaughter's surname is He, she also has the blood of the Lao family, and she is also the flesh and blood of the Lao family."

If Lao Guanghuai could be suppressed just now, now the anger in his heart is about to burst out before his eyes.

"Granddaughter? Less than half a year after the death of our little girl, He Wenqing remarried. My two sons went to Zhending. He wanted to marry another man, and we couldn't control it. Then we could take the child away, but they didn't agree! They said Our Lao family runs an oil mill and we are not qualified to educate their He family’s children, we are not worthy!”

When Lao Guanghuai said this, he realized that he was a little excited. After all, the person in front of him was not an ordinary person, but Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Shangguan on the side had tears in her eyes: "This marriage was wrong from the beginning. If our two families had not gotten married, my daughter might not have been married at such a young age."

Lao Guanghuai sighed. He had been an official for many years and had long lost his emotions and anger, but when it came to what happened back then, he was still angry.

"My two sons were also young and energetic back then. They couldn't bear this tone and got into a fight. They beat He Wenqing and his second brother. They almost got into trouble in the Yamen. The two families were completely torn apart. They were not in-laws. It’s almost enough to call him an enemy.”

Li Jinxiu snorted coldly: "If you do the right thing, you should be beaten. You scholars should be careful in everything you do. If it were me, if this was my in-law, I would smash his house to pieces and then kill the child." If you take it away, if he doesn’t give it to you, put a knife to his neck to see if he gives it to you.”

Lao Guanghuai gasped, yes, I also know that this is more effective, but you can always do this openly, but we can't. There are a few loyal and brave ladies in this world.

At this time, laughter like silver bells came from the corner, and He Ran walked over: "The old lady's words were really heartfelt."

Li Jinxiu's old face turned red. Does this mean that her back hurts when she stands and talks?

Thinking about it, if the uncles of the Lao family, who were both white men at the time, really put a knife to He Wenqing's chest, with the shamelessness of the He family, who knows what trouble would have happened. In the end, it would be the children who would suffer.

Unfortunately, the Lao family didn't know at that time that the child was actually a fake.

Lao Guanghuai glanced with the corner of his eyes and saw that the person speaking was a young girl, so he stopped looking. Madam Shangguan's eyes fell on He Ran, with her clear and penetrating eyes.

He Ran walked up to Lao Guanghuai and Mrs. Shangguan and said softly: "You two came from afar and just arrived in Beijing. You don't know anything about the He family in Zhending Mansion. The granddaughter you wanted to take away back then was actually It’s a fake.”

"What?" Lao Guanghuai and Mrs. Shangguan looked at each other, and they both saw shock on each other's faces.

Did they hear right?

"He Shuyuan, the eldest daughter of the He family who has been raised by the He family for 14 years, is indeed flesh and blood of the He family, but she is not your granddaughter, at least not by blood." (End of Chapter)
