The two families had a falling out long ago.

Zhou Qiaoyun's kindness to her youngest son is definitely a case of a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—she has ulterior motives.

Fearing that Zhou Qiaoyun might harm her youngest son, she took him to her mother-in-law for care and also told her mother-in-law about how good Zhou Qiaoyun was to her son.

Tang Su'e became suspicious after learning about this, because she had also switched Tang Suxiang's second granddaughter, and more than twenty years ago Tang Suxiang had also switched Erzhuang's third daughter.

She and Zhou Qiaoyun had long since fallen out and their relationship was extremely strained. It was very unusual for Zhou Qiaoyun to be so kind to her grandson.

Tang Su'e called over her grandson who was playing nearby. She looked at him carefully. She hadn't paid much attention to him before, but now the more she looked at the child, the more he resembled Tang Dafei when he was a child.

Because Tang Dafei and his second son Wang Xiaowei are cousins ​​and look somewhat alike, Tang Dafei had always thought the child looked like his father, but now he realized something was wrong.

Tang Su'e immediately called her second son, Wang Xiaowei, to come over as well.

The mother and son discussed what to do about it.

Wang Xiaowei refused to believe that his son had been switched. To prove that his son was his biological child, he and his wife took their youngest son to a large hospital in the provincial capital for a paternity test.

A week later, the test results came back, confirming that the younger son was indeed not his and his wife's biological child.

Enraged, Wang Xiaowei rushed to find Zhou Qiaoyun and Tang Youliang, demanding to know if they had switched his youngest son.

Tang Youliang was completely confused, and Zhou Qiaoyun also denied it.

Tang Su'e deliberately said that the child had undergone a paternity test in the provincial capital and was not their child, and that they had already abandoned the child in an orphanage in the provincial capital.

Zhou Qiaoyun panicked and revealed that the child was Tang Dafei's son. She had deliberately switched the children to get revenge on Tang Su'e for taking away her newborn daughter years ago.

The two sides argued about the child.

Zhou Qiaoyun asked them to name the orphanage. Wang Xiaowei wanted his own son back and asked Zhou Qiaoyun to return his son first, promising to tell her the orphanage's name in return.

Zhou Qiaoyun knew that Wang Xiaowei was a habitual liar, so she told him to first tell her the name of the orphanage before revealing the whereabouts of his biological son.

The two sides argued endlessly, neither willing to back down, and the argument escalated to the point that it reached the ailing old man, Mr. Tang.

Only then did Old Man Tang realize that his grandson's youngest son was actually his great-grandson, and he hated Song Yinhua even more for ruining his family.

Wang Xiaowei's wife was anxious and first said that the child was at her in-laws' house. Zhou Qiaoyun ran to Tang Su'e's residence, found her grandson, and then said that she had abandoned Wang Xiaowei's youngest son at the door of a villager's house.

Tang Su'e and Wang Xiaowei found the villager's house and saw the male head of the household drunk and beating his wife and children. Wang Xiaowei rushed over and pushed the drunk male head of the household away.

A conflict broke out between the two sides, and Wang Xiaowei accidentally killed the other party.

When Old Man Tang learned that his grandson had been arrested for accidentally killing someone, his condition worsened, and he began to talk nonsense.

One moment they were cursing Song Yinhua for being a jinx, saying she had ruined his family.

A moment later, they asked why she was chosen.

Old Tang had been ill for two or three years, suffering terribly from the pain every day, and his resentment towards Song Yinhua never subsided.

He hated her for ruining his grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and for ruining his whole family.

One late night, Old Man Tang was tormented by illness and kept wailing, cursing Song Yinhua for ruining his family.

As if sensing something in her sleep, the jade pendant on her chest emitted a faint light, subtly reflecting her swollen belly.

Song Yinhua slowly opened her eyes, sat up as if her soul had left her body, and glanced at Song Yinhua and Huo Jianguo who were fast asleep on the bed.

"Master, you have finally awakened. Are we leaving?" In an instant, the jade pendant transformed into a white cub and flew onto the illusory soul's shoulder.

"There's still something to take care of!" the illusory soul said. "Take me to Old Man Tang's place."

"Yes, Master!"

In the darkness, Old Man Tang lay on his bed, groaning in pain and cursing Song Yinhua for ruining his family.

His eldest grandson died, his granddaughter and grandson-in-law were arrested, and his grandson-in-law was sentenced to more than ten years in prison for manslaughter.

All of this was caused by Song Yinhua.

"She's clearly dead, why choose her?"

"Because she's dead, that's why we choose her!" A phantom spirit appeared before Old Man Tang.

Old Tang moved his eyes, saw the soul in front of him, and suddenly his eyes widened, "It's you!"

Back then, Hanwen and his friends ran home from the back mountain to tell him that Song Yinhua had fallen into a cave and no matter how much they called her, she wouldn't respond. He carried Xuewen and went to the back mountain himself, hoping to rescue her as soon as possible.

However, when they arrived at the cave, they found that twelve-year-old Song Yinhua was already dead.

He immediately led Xuewen out of the cave, determined not to admit that Song Yinhua's death was related to his grandson and the others.

Just as he was leaving, he noticed that the cave had suddenly lit up. When he peeked over, he saw a girl who claimed to be a mission taker and a small white dog that could fly.

He overheard their conversation, saying that she had chosen Song Yinhua as the vessel to collect merits, and that she had opened a scroll on which Song Yinhua's future fate was written.

He saw the transparent text on the scroll and knew that Song Yinhua, who had been chosen, would have an extraordinary future.

Song Erzhuang's family was so poor, why did his daughter have such a good life?

He was furious. He had a large group of granddaughters and great-granddaughters, so why weren't his granddaughters and great-granddaughters chosen as the vessel?

Why choose Song Erzhuang's daughter?

He couldn't sleep well day and night, so why should Song Erzhuang get the benefit?

In what way is the Tang family inferior to the Song family?

Even if he chooses Song Erzhuang's daughter, so what? He can still ruin her life and make her live a miserable and unfortunate life!

"Old man, I've come to thank you!" the illusory soul laughed. "Thank you for interfering and constantly tripping me up, which is why I was able to collect so much merit."

"You...you...you've come here to take revenge on me?" Old Tang asked in fear.

The little white spirit beast said in its childish voice, "You used your offspring to help my master overcome his tribulation. My master will be too grateful to even think about thanking you."

"You've ruined my whole family!" Old Man Tang wailed.

"I've ruined your family so badly?" The illusory soul chuckled. "Didn't you ruin your family yourself? If you hadn't been jealous that I chose Song Yinhua as my vessel, and hadn't repeatedly framed and slandered her, would your family have suffered such misfortune? Your grandchildren would have either died or gone to jail?"

Little spirit beast: "Old man, you don't think it was a coincidence that you saw my master when the original owner died, do you?"

Old Tang was taken aback.

"My master deliberately showed this to you because he knew you would frame the original owner out of jealousy, thus benefiting my master and allowing him to accumulate more merit." The little spirit beast happily spun around in the air. "Haha, you tried to throw a stone at someone else, but it all ended up hitting your own offspring!"

"You've been plotting against me all along?" Old Man Tang became agitated. "Why would you want to harm me?"

"It was your own malicious intent that harmed both yourself and others," the person on the mission said.

When she came into this world, she chose the recently deceased Song Yinhua as the vessel for this world.

As mission takers, they must traverse the three thousand worlds to collect merit for the final divine qualification test. Those who pass the test can retain their divine qualification or be promoted, while those who fail will be reincarnated in the three thousand worlds to accumulate merit.

When the mission taker and the original body merge, all the memories of the mission taker are automatically sealed.

In order to successfully pass the divine qualification test, she was designed to have two lifetimes from the very beginning.

Having experienced the machinations of villains and the dark side of this world in his first life, he accumulated enough hatred and resentment.

After her rebirth, the belief accumulated from this hatred and resentment propelled her to withstand the pressure and forge ahead.

And Old Man Tang can be considered a major contributor to her success.

In both lifetimes, they tried every means to frame her, slander her, trip her up, cause trouble behind her back, and create setbacks to help her grow.

She made the right choice by deliberately opening the scroll and letting him see the original owner's future fate.

"Why didn't you choose my granddaughter and grandson-in-law? If you had chosen them, none of this would have happened!" Old Tang said angrily. "Why didn't you choose my granddaughter?"

"Because your character is so terrible!"

Old Tang became agitated as if he had been stimulated, "I'm such a kind person..."

He stopped breathing halfway through his sentence.

"Master, he's dead!" the little spirit beast said. "Are we leaving this world now?"

"My children are about to be born, and I'll leave this world after I've lived this life. For me, a few decades will pass in the blink of an eye."

Before their voices faded, they had returned to Song Yinhua's place.

The illusory soul lay down again, merging with Song Yinhua, and the little white spirit beast transformed back into the jade pendant.

...

-

The next morning, Song Yinhua woke up feeling like she had a dream the night before, but when she tried to recall it, she couldn't remember anything.

Two months later, Song Yinhua gave birth to twins in the hospital.

Huo Jianguo stayed outside the whole time, and the family was never separated again.
