The journey from Minjiang City to Xingxing Orphanage is not far, but the geographical location of Qingxi County is relatively remote, so the last section of the road is a little bumpy.
The old man Feng was getting old, and the driver and the housekeeper were worried that his body would not be able to bear it, but they soon discovered that this worry was unnecessary, because the old man seemed to be in good spirits, and he took the initiative to chat with them along the way.
After reaching the destination, as soon as Mr. Feng got out of the car, the current dean and accompanying staff who were waiting outside the gate of the orphanage greeted him, and politely invited the group in.
The reason why the staff were so polite was naturally because Mr. Feng had donated a large amount of money to the orphanage a few days ago, and today he was sent supplies in advance.
For the orphanage, Mr. Feng was an honored guest, and naturally he had to be greeted with the highest etiquette.
The orphanage had learned in advance that the old man would donate so much money to the Xingxing Orphanage because his granddaughter was separated from his family and grew up in this orphanage.
In order to do what they like, the staff told the old man about Jiang Li when she was a child. For example, Jiang Li was very obedient, her grades were good, and she would help take care of children younger than her in her spare time.
Listening to the staff talking about this, Mr. Feng was actually quite uncomfortable, but he wanted to hear more.
He couldn't help asking the staff, the grandmother of the orphanage, and a child named Jiang Tang, because when he was chatting with Xiao Jiang Hao before, the frequency of these two people was relatively high.
The staff told Mr. Feng that Jiang Tang was a third-year high school student and was in school today.
As for the grandmother of the dean, she was actually the former dean of the orphanage. Later, when she got older, the orphanage was handed over to the current dean, but because she liked these children who grew up under her care , so she still lives in an orphanage most of the time.
Mr. Feng soon met the former dean surnamed Jiang, who was a very kind old man.
Seeing Mr. Feng, Dean Jiang was also very happy, not because Mr. Feng donated money and materials to the orphanage, but because Mr. Feng appeared here, it meant that he really cared about Jiang Li.
Dean Jiang is a very familiar person. After chatting a few words with Mr. Feng, he involuntarily opened the chat box.
"When Jiang Li's parents came to pick her up, I was actually quite worried, because the Jiang family had confirmed the child's identity early in the morning, but it took a week to pick her up, and that Mr. Jiang didn't seem to be there. easy-going."
Old Man Feng sneered, "It's not just that it's not easy to get along with, it's just a stinky stone in the ditch, I don't even bother to care about him."
Hearing what he said, Dean Jiang raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "Then Jiang Hao is following your old man now?"
Old Man Feng nodded, "We have already come over from the Feng family for the custody of Xiao Jianghao. This time, we are actually here to send invitations, because after recognizing the child, we are going to hold a banquet to introduce her to the circle. People know you, as an elder who took care of little Jiang Chen, she definitely wants you to be there."
Dean Jiang nodded again and again, "Seeing that she gets along so well with her family, I feel relieved. Jiang Li is a good child, but she is a little introverted and doesn't know how to express herself, but she is actually a very emotional person. people."
Afraid that Mr. Feng would not believe it, she gave an example: "This child has always had good grades, and he is reluctant to spend the scholarship he gets every year. He always buys books and stationery for those younger brothers and sisters, and encourages those children to study hard and use them in the future. Knowledge alters your fate."
The old man Feng nodded again and again, "I know, this child is very good, very similar to her little uncle."
It's just that his youngest son grew up in brocade clothing and jade food, so he was inevitably a bit arrogant, and little Jiang Li's temperament was much gentler than her little uncle.
Seeing that Mr. Feng really liked Jiang Li, Dean Jiang was completely relieved, and after accepting the invitation, he said that he would definitely go to the banquet.
After finishing the conversation with President Jiang, Mr. Feng left the orphanage, and then went to the school where his granddaughter attended.
The old housekeeper found that the old man said that he was going to send invitations, but in fact he was going to listen to those teachers compliment Miss Jiang Li.
Fortunately, Miss Jiang Li is really excellent. Whether it is the dean and staff of the orphanage, or the teachers of the school, they all like Miss Jiang Li very much, and they are also very polite to the master.
The old butler couldn't help but guess that if these people came to the master to praise Miss Jiang Li every day, the master might be able to eat two more bowls of rice.
Old man Feng was in Qingxi County, but the invitations he had written before were sent out one by one by his family.
Those invitations that were sent out were like bombs thrown into the wealthy circle of Minjiang City, blowing everyone into a circle.
Although the Feng family and the Jiang family have hardly had any contact in these years, no one in the circle knows that the only precious daughter of the old man, Feng, eloped with Jiang Huai, a phoenix man with a white face.
After Feng Yun and Jiang Huai eloped for two years, they brought their son Jiang Zhou back to Feng's house and begged her family to forgive her for being ignorant.
This child has already been born, and there is no way to forgive him. Mr. Feng can only hold his nose and hold the son-in-law of Jiang Huai.
Jianghuai also has some ability, coupled with the support of the Feng family, he quickly made a name for himself. Although it is not comparable to those rich and powerful families, it is far more than the average upstart.
It's just that Jiang Huai suddenly moved out of the Feng family with his wife and children, and the two families didn't seem to have much contact after that.
Now, Mr. Feng suddenly said that he had found his long-lost granddaughter, which really confused many people.
As we all know, the granddaughter of the old man is Jiang Ruo, the child star. They live well in the Jiang family, where have they been separated from the old man for many years?
However, someone quickly reacted, remembering that Jianghuai adopted a child from an orphanage some time ago, and also transferred the child's school and household registration.
At that time, everyone thought that the girl was Jianghuai's illegitimate daughter. It was estimated that she was entangled and had no choice but to bring her back. As for the adopted daughter, it was just a fig leaf.
This kind of thing is not new in the wealthy family. Everyone treats it as a joke after dinner and makes fun of it, and it will not take it to heart afterward.
And everyone knows that Mr. Feng has a very short temper, and no one dares to mention this in front of him.
Now, Mr. Feng suddenly said that he found his long-lost granddaughter. Could it be the adopted daughter of the Jiang family?
If this is the case, then the adopted daughter of the Jiang family is not only Jiang Huai's biological daughter, but also Feng Yun's biological daughter!
But that doesn't make sense!
If the so-called adopted daughter was born by Jiang Huai and Feng Yun, why didn't the two recognize the identity of the child?
Everyone in the circle felt that they seemed to understand, but they didn't fully understand.
But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the old man of the Feng family is going to hold a banquet with such great fanfare, so they should be able to know the truth as long as they go out and inquire.
Because of an invitation, everyone in the circle started to gossip, and the matter about Jiang Hao and the Jiang family brothers and sisters was quickly picked up by everyone.
It turns out that the news of the true and false daughters has already spread to the whole school, right?
But Jiang Ruo is not a child star. Now the whole school is talking about her life experience, so there is no way that there is no movement on Weibo!
When everyone searched, they couldn't help calling him a good guy. Even though there were so many leaks, they didn't even make it to the hot search. It seems that Jianghuai deliberately suppressed it!
Some people didn't think it was a big deal to watch the fun and wanted to help Jiang Ruo buy a hot search, but they were soon persuaded.
"The Feng family hasn't moved yet. Why don't you join in the fun? Don't let Feng Yun go to her father's place to cry for the adopted daughter, and the old man Feng is looking for trouble for you."
Hearing this persuasion, that person quickly suppressed his thought that it would be a big deal to watch the fun.
However, the Jiang family was targeted by people in the circle anyway, and they soon found out that the son of the Jianghuai family was beaten by the second ancestor of the Tong family.
It is said that Jiang Zhou had a fractured rib and a plaster cast on his leg, but Jiang Huai chose to reconcile in private due to the power of the Tong family.
As for the child star of the Jiang family, who is so petite and petted, she doesn't go to school at all. She said that her brother was injured and that she would stay in the hospital to take care of her brother. Few people believed this kind of nonsense.
There was a lot of trouble outside, and it was naturally impossible for Jianghuai to be ignorant of these news.
When Mr. Feng distributed the invitations, he was still accompanying his son in the hospital, and he was so angry that he smashed the TV in the ward.
Jiang Huai's expression was ferocious and terrifying, Jiang Ruo's whole person trembled, and the medicine bowl in his hand was almost thrown out by her.
On the other hand, Jiang Zhou took the medicine bowl nonchalantly, and reached out and patted the back of her hand, signaling her to take it easy.
Feng Yun had never seen Jiang Huai make such big words, she immediately persuaded: "Let's calm down first and think about how to solve the problem? It's useless for you to be so angry!"
Jiang Huai sneered again and again, "Solution? How can we solve it now? Unless your dad personally told those outside that he was bored and had nothing to do, the invitations he wrote were just to make fun of everyone."
Hearing what he said, Feng Yun showed an embarrassed expression. Dad was always stubborn. He had already decided to announce Xiao Li's identity, so how could he suddenly stop.
"At the beginning, the Feng family clearly promised not to reveal Jiang Hao's identity, but how long did it take to get custody? They started to distribute invitations widely. Your brother Feng is a villain who goes back on his word!"
Jiang Huai wanted to say that the old man Feng was also a villain who went back on his word, but he didn't say anything because of the presence of the two children.
Feng Yun pursed her lips, and after a while, she said, "Aqihe...he is very unreasonable sometimes."
"You said the same thing back then, and also said that he was young, let me not care about him, do you think he is still young now?" Jiang Huai was very irritable, like a lion trapped in a cage.
"But...but we still have to find a way!" Feng Yun was also helpless. She knew her brother's character and knew that he would not listen to her advice.
Jiang Zhou, who was lying on the hospital bed, suddenly said, "Actually, it's not completely helpless."
"What's the solution?" Jiang Huai looked at his son who was hanged because of the plaster cast, and there was a hint of hope in his eyes.
Jiang Zhou turned his eyes to Feng Yun, "Mom, you can go and ask your grandfather to let him give Ruoluo a way to live."
"What... what way of life?" Feng Yun was puzzled.
Jiang Zhou spoke slowly: "I did target Jiang Ruo, but Ruoluo is innocent. She doesn't know anything. You tell your grandfather these words and ask him not to disclose Ruoluo's life experience."
Feng Yun smiled wryly and shook her head, "You don't understand your grandfather's temper, the invitations have already been sent out, he can't change his mind."
"I never thought about preventing him from recognizing Jiang Li, but after all, you raised Ruoluo, and it is no different from your own daughter. As long as my grandfather is willing to take a step back and announce to the public that Ruoluo and Jiang Li are twins, things will turn around. room." Jiang Zhou said.
Feng Yun was about to refute, but Jiang Huai spoke first: "If your grandfather agrees, this should be the best result."
Feng Yun said in surprise: "But I asked you to declare that Xiaoluo and Ruoluo are twins, you said that those people outside won't believe it!"
Jiang Huai said with a wry smile: "This time is different from the past. It doesn't matter whether those people believe it or not."
Jiang Huai put his hand on Feng Yun's shoulder, "I didn't agree to declare Jiang Hao and Ruoluo to be twin sisters before, because if they did, those people would surely dig deeper into the identities of the two children, and I'm afraid to reveal the identity of Ruoluo. , so it had to be rejected.”
Having said this, Jiang Huai sighed and continued: "But today is different from the past, now the relationship between Ruoluo and Jiang Hao is already well known, after this banquet, Ruoluo will face endless Our cooperation with the Qin family is bound to be affected."
Feng Yun was still not persuaded, "But even if Dad agrees to our proposal, outsiders still won't believe it. Ruoluo is our daughter!"
Jiang Huai whispered: "I don't need them to believe, I just need to let them see the attitude of the Feng family. Those people outside are used to seeing the wind. Just let them know that your father accepts the granddaughter of Ruoluo, which is enough."
Feng Yun didn't have any opinion. She was once again persuaded by Jiang Huai and whispered, "I... I'll go to my father to talk about this, but he may not agree."
Jiang Huai nodded immediately, "Whether the old man agrees or not, he has to give it a try, right?"
At this moment, Jiang Huai was still holding on to a glimmer of expectation. After all, the old man Feng had really loved Ruoluo before, maybe he would open up to him.
In the research institute's office, Feng Qi got the paternity test results of Jiang Huai and Jiang Ruo.
The assistant looked at Feng Qi with admiration.
"Third Master, you are really clever, even your intuition is so reliable, but I didn't expect that Jiang Huai, this scumbag, not only created an illegitimate daughter outside, but also gave up two daughters and asked his wife to raise the little three's child."
Feng Qi shook his head and said, "There is a high probability that the child was not replaced by him."
"Huh?" The assistant was puzzled.
"Although Jianghuai is selfish, he knows how to weigh the pros and cons the most. It stands to reason that he will not take the initiative to change children." Feng Qi explained.
The assistant's eyes widened, "But the fact is right in front of you, he raised Jiang Ruo with a lot of love, and after finding Miss Jiang Hao, he still refused to reveal the identities of the two, which is simply not something that humans can do. things that come out."
Feng Qi tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, "It's possible that when he found out that Jiang Ruo was not of the Feng family blood, the situation was irreversible."
Speaking of this, Feng Qi suddenly sneered, "His love for Jiang Ruo may be true, but he refuses to reveal Jiang Ruo's adopted daughter status. It should be the marriage between Gu Ji and the Qin family."
Jiang Ruo was only fifteen years old, and Jiang Huai and the Qin family had already made a verbal kiss. If he really liked Jiang Ruo, he would not believe even a word of a person who looked so ugly.
"The third master is right!" The assistant gave a thumbs up, "Would you like me to publish this paternity test, so that Jianghuai will be even more troubled."
Feng Qi shook his head slowly, "Don't worry, I'll handle this matter, you ask someone to find out who Jiang Ruo's biological mother is."
The assistant nodded immediately, "Third Master, don't worry, I promise to find it as quickly as possible."
After the assistant left, Feng Qi held the paternity test in his hand and felt hesitant for the first time.
According to his previous temper, he will definitely throw this paternity test in front of that stupid sister and let her figure it out for herself.
But if this is the case, the idiot will run back to Feng's house crying, and the old man may scold her and accept her slowly.
Knowing that Jiang Ruo is the daughter of Xiaosan, she will naturally feel ashamed of her own daughter, and her little niece will be unbearable.
Feng Qi sat quietly for a while, folded the paternity test, put it in the pocket of his suit trousers, packed his things and returned to Feng's house.
Father Feng distributed invitations widely, and the Qin family also received one.
Qin Zheng's father Qin Lin and Jiang Huai are good friends, and the two have established an oral relationship, so the cooperation has been very frequent over the years.
Recently, Jianghuai has become a little more radical than before, and he also pulled him in, thinking that sooner or later he will become the family of his children, so Qin Lin chose to cooperate with him.
In this way, the Jiang family and the Qin family were tied to the same boat and became a complete community of interests.
Before receiving the invitation, Qin Lin never thought much, but after receiving the invitation, Qin Lin felt that his whole body was about to explode.
He got married to the Jiang family because his son and Jiang Ruo had a good relationship with each other as childhood sweethearts, and Jiang Ruo was also very well-behaved and sensible, and was an excellent boy.
But this is all based on the premise that the two families are well-matched and Jiang Ruo is Jiang Huai's biological daughter.
But now he knows that Jiang Ruo is not Jiang Huai's biological daughter, and Jiang Huai's biological daughter is still recognized by the Feng family.
As a result, Qin Lin had to suspect that Jiang Huai did not announce Jiang Ruo's adopted daughter's identity at first, just because he tied himself to his boat as soon as possible.
Qin Lin became angrier the more he thought about it, and immediately called his son Qin Zheng.
As soon as the call was connected, he asked, "Did you know that Jiang Ruo is not Jiang Huai's biological daughter?"
Qin Zheng hesitated for a long time, and finally replied in a hoarse voice: "I know, but I think it doesn't matter if Ruoluo is Uncle Jiang's biological daughter or not."
"You are confused!" Qin Lin was very angry with his son, "We married the Jiang family, although I never thought about using Jiang Ruo to divide the property from the Jiang family, but only Jiang Ruo is Jiang Huai's biological daughter. The Jiang family's relationship is strong enough."
"But Uncle Jiang still loves Ruoluo very much, he..."
Qin Lin interrupted his son's words, "Do you want to say that he did not reveal Jiang Hao's identity because of Jiang Ruo?"
Qin Zheng remained silent, he really thought so.
Qin Lin sighed and said earnestly: "If he really loves Jiang Ruo, he should confess to us immediately, and then show enough sincerity, but he deliberately deceived him, didn't he think about it, I know After the truth is revealed, will he have a grudge against Jiang Ruo? He can clearly think of this, but he still chooses to hide it, but because in Jianghuai's eyes, interests are more important."
Qin Zheng was stunned when he heard this, and after a while, he asked: "What do you mean, because Uncle Jiang was worried about affecting the cooperation between the two companies, he refused to disclose the life experiences of Ruoluo and Jiang Hao, and he was not allowed to Ruo Ruo tell me the truth?"
Qin Lin: ...
Did he mean this?
And the son just said that Jiang Ruo told him the truth before, why is it now that Jiang Huai does not allow Jiang Ruo to tell him the truth?
"Dad, thank you for telling me this. I knew that Ruoluo must have difficulties. I'm going to go to her now. It must be very difficult for her to face this alone."
Qin Lin: ...
How could he give birth to such a fool?
Forget it, he doesn't care about children's love affairs.
But in the future, if Jiang Ruo wanted to enter the Qin family's door, it would be a fool's dream.
After Feng Qi returned to Feng's house, he found that Feng Yun had come to the door.
Because the old man was in the county seat, and no one answered the old man's phone, the servant didn't know what to do, so he could only take her to the living room and serve her with delicious food.
The moment Feng Qi saw Feng Yun, he remembered the paternity test in his pocket.
He was still a little hesitant at first, but he didn't expect this love brain to come to the door in person.
Maybe this is God's will?
