"This is a long story. Let's go to sleep first and tell you later, okay?" Hood was a little reluctant to talk about his own affairs.

The main reason is that this only involves the elders, and he doesn't want Xiangnan to know the bad things about it.

"No way, let's talk first and then go to sleep. Otherwise, there will be no bridal chamber tonight." Xiangnan would not be fooled.

Huo De put his arm around her waist and said, "I'm afraid you'll leave me if I tell you."

"Why? You're not the son of a big criminal, nor are you an unforgivable criminal. Why should I leave you, unless we are half-siblings?"

Hod: "..."

The corners of Hood's mouth twitched, and for the first time, cracks appeared on his expressionless face.

"It can't be true, is it? We are half-siblings? No, that's impossible. Yu Zhen treated you like a master, and it has nothing to do with me."

"What are you thinking about?" Huo De covered her pink lips and said, "It's not that outrageous. My identity is a bit special."

"What's the special method? He's not a prince, right? He died long ago."

She is not afraid of the prince. As long as he doesn't take a concubine, everything will be fine.

Huo De was amused by her tone: "It's not that exaggerated. I'm not a child of the Huo family in Daxiang Village."

Xiang Nan nodded calmly: "Anyone with a bit of eyesight can see that your appearance and bloodline are not from the Huo family of Daxiang Village at all."

Huo De was a little surprised: "You knew it a long time ago?"

"It's just a guess. Genes are somewhat reliable, and mutations can't be this outrageous. Besides, your temperament and conversation skills are not something the Huo family of Daxiang Village can cultivate."

"Wife, don't you dislike me?" Hood asked a little unconfidently.

"Why are you disdainful? Who you are, your background, and your status have nothing to do with whether you are my husband or not. It only matters who you are as a person. And why are you disdainful? It seems that you are of a high status."

Hodder didn't know how to start.

"Is there any hidden reason for you to stay in Daxiang Village? If so, then don't tell me. Anyway, no matter who you are, I'm not afraid of you.

Even if your family really has an heir to the throne, just don't give me a concubine. Your wife is enough."

Xiangnan comforted him easily. If he didn't want to talk about it, then he didn't have to. She wasn't very interested in other people's secrets.

She knew too much about the secret affairs of wealthy families. She herself had been abducted to the countryside and suffered for several years.

She was used to this.

Huo De nodded and said, "I didn't tell you at first because I was afraid you would be scared, and I was also afraid you would go after my identity.

Now I don’t think you will be scared, and you won’t be attracted by my identity. You have the ability to live a good life.

I'm afraid you'll find my identity troublesome and won't bother you.

I actually found out at a very young age that I was not the biological child of my current parents, and people told me that I didn't look like them when I was very young.

The older I got, the more people I talked to. When I was eight years old, I wanted to buy a notebook for my birthday, but they didn't want to buy it. At night, I overheard them saying that the child was not their biological child, so there was no need to spend the money.

I didn’t blame them at the time, as my family was really poor and they had to borrow money to send me to school.”

Although Hood knew at that time that he was not his biological son, he did not feel much emotion, because people had told him since he was a child that he did not look like his parents and was probably not their biological son.

He was not born in Daxiang Village either. He was already two or three years old when they moved to Daxiang Village.

When he was sixteen, his parents could no longer afford to send him to school. He had three younger brothers, so he decided to join the army. Before leaving, he asked them who his biological parents were.

They admitted that Hood was not their biological son, but they did not know who Hood's biological parents were.

They took the wrong child at the hospital and only realized it after they brought the child back. They wanted to look for him but couldn't find him, so this is all they could do.

Huo De's mother later discovered that the child was not right, but she had already returned to Jinghai. She gave birth to the child in a county hospital on the way, and it would be difficult to find the child now.

Moreover, the old man of the Huo family is very fond of her baby. This is the first grandson of this generation of the Huo family. If he knew that she had lost her real grandson, she might be kicked out of the Huo family.

In order to maintain her status, Hood's mother raised the child as her own even though she knew he was not her own.

But the genes of the Huo family in Daxiang Village are too ordinary. The child doesn't look like a member of the Huo family in Jinghai. The Huo family is full of handsome men and beautiful women, and none of them looks as ordinary as him.

The old man had always suspected that the child was not of the Huo family's bloodline, but there was no such thing as paternity testing at the time, so he could only suspect.

Until one day, Huo De followed the old leader to attend a meeting and met the old man of the Huo family. When the old man saw Huo De, he felt that he was very similar to himself, almost like him when he was young.

He had originally suspected the one in his family, and then after chatting with Huo De, he found out that he was not his parents' biological son, but was taken away by mistake in the hospital.

The evidence of the wrong baby was obvious at the time, so the other parent should have noticed it.

After learning about this, Mr. Huo went back and questioned his wife who was giving birth to a child alone outside. It turned out that the child was not his biological child and was indeed taken away by mistake.

Huo De wrote a letter to ask about the situation of the Huo family in Daxiang Village at that time. His parents had no choice but to tell him that they had taken Huo De away by mistake. The cloth used to wrap Huo De was very expensive, and there was a gold longevity lock in the bundle.

At that time, the Huo family's parents in Daxiang Village were very poor. They were so poor that they could not even pay the hospital for the birth of the child. In a moment of greed, they pawned the gold longevity lock, paid the medical bills, and ran away with the child.

In fact, they discovered on the spot that the nurse had given them the wrong baby, but for the sake of the gold lock, they did not go back to the hospital to exchange it.

So Huo De never returned to Daxiang Village again. He was very resentful towards his parents.

But he also satisfied his younger brothers financially.

"So you find it difficult to say it because you don't have the love of both parents? But Brother Huo, what's the big deal? It's not your fault.

The couple in Daxiang Village changed your fate because of their selfishness. It was their fault.

So what if your mother gave up you for her own status? You don't have to acknowledge her. She didn't fulfill her responsibilities as a mother anyway.

Look at me, my parents have been gone since I was young. It’s not shameful to not have maternal love. You still have love from many other people.

You see, even though the three brothers of the Huo family know that you are not their biological eldest brother, they still respect you very much.

Your grandfather and your father also dote on you, otherwise they wouldn't have scared Uncle Yu like that.

So...husband, what kind of existence is the Huo family?"
