"You guys are cheating. This doesn't count as a gift from last year." Song Hai protested to the four brothers in unison.

"Yes, if you like the flute, I will give you a jade flute, which is better than yours." Song Haichao said.

"Third brother can also buy a jade flute. My sister likes that kind of instrument. Third brother can buy it for her!" said Song Haiting.

"Sister, do you like Guzheng? Fourth brother will give you a Guzheng or a Pipa." Song Haijin said.

"Sister, fifth brother is still studying and doesn't have enough money to buy a good musical instrument. Why don't I make a piano for you?" Song Haizhong also said.

Li Yun took the flute and listened to everyone trying to please her in order to give her gifts. It would be a lie to say that she was not touched.

If the original owner had not died, she would have been the happiest woman if she had found the Duke of Protector's family.

What a blessing it is to have the love of my grandmother, my parents, and the unconditional affection of my brothers.

Unfortunately, the original owner is dead, so she has no chance to enjoy it.

Since I am not their biological child, I cannot feel much happiness.

“I know you all think of me as your sister, but I’m not, so I really can’t accept these gifts.

Although we can't be siblings, we can be friends. "Li Yunzai wasn't sure of the original owner's feelings, so she didn't want to recognize them for the time being, but being friends was acceptable.

Li Yun actually didn't want to recognize them too early. She always felt that it was the original owner's parents' fault for not protecting the original owner well.

Besides, the original owner lost her memory for seventeen years, and she didn’t know what kind of life she had lived in those seventeen years. She wanted to wait until she regained her memory before deciding whether to recognize them.

"Okay, let's consider this flute as a gift to a friend.

I'll give you these gifts when you're willing to be my sister." Song Haiwei said, then took the gifts back to the side room and put them away.

Although my sister refused to acknowledge them, and I felt a little lost and upset, her willingness to be their friend was already a great improvement. As long as I spent some time with her, I was sure she would be moved and willing to acknowledge them.

When Song Haichao saw his elder brother take back the gift, he also took the gift back to the ear room and put it away.

My sister said she wanted to be friends with them, so he went to buy a jade flute and a guzheng tomorrow.

Song Haiting, Song Haijin and Song Haizhong thought the same and were planning to give musical instruments to their sister tomorrow.

"Princess Jiahui, let's go to the dining hall for dinner. You must not have eaten much just now. I asked the servants to prepare the food, and it's ready now." The Duke of Protectorate said with a doting look on his face.

"After hearing what the Duke said, I am really hungry." Li Yun did not eat anything at the palace banquet and was now hungry.

"Princess Jiahui, please!" said the Duke of Huguo.

"Duke, please!" Li Yun said politely.

The Duke of Protectorate took everyone to the dining hall, where food and wine were already served and everyone sat down in order.

Li Yun sat between the Duke's wife and the old lady, and next to the Duke's wife was the Protector of the Country.

Next to the old lady was Song Haiwei, the eldest son and the crown prince, who sat in the front row.

During the meal, the Duke's wife and the old lady both picked up food for Li Yun, and Song Haiwei and his five brothers also picked up food for Li Yun.

Looking at the bowl full of dishes, Li Yun was at a loss for words and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Don't you know you should use serving chopsticks when serving food? Who would dare eat food picked up like that? The food is covered in your saliva and bacteria. Who would dare eat it?

Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Li Yun had no choice but to bite the bullet and take a bite of the dish.

She felt that the dish was as hard to swallow as if she had eaten a thousand-pound stone.

The Duke's wife and others were overjoyed and satisfied to see that Li Yun was willing to eat the dishes they picked for him.

As long as she is willing to accept it, she will slowly accept them.

They were happy, but Li Yun was miserable.

The meal was generally very heartwarming, and it would be even more perfect if the process of picking up food was eliminated.

After dinner, Li Yun chatted with the original owner's relatives for half an incense stick of time, and it was already dark outside.

If you don't go back, you won't be able to see the road anymore.

Li Yun said goodbye to the Duke of Huguo and his family, got on the carriage, and Changjiang drove the carriage back to the Princess's Mansion.

The Duke of Huguo and his family watched Li Yun leave reluctantly before entering the mansion with satisfaction.

Although Li Yun refused to acknowledge them, they were satisfied that he could talk to them and eat with them.

This is a good start. They all believe that one day Li Yun will recognize them.

When Li Yun returned to the princess's mansion, it was pitch dark. The doorman heard the sound of a carriage and came out with a lantern to open the door.

"Princess, you are finally back. The old master, the young master, and the young lady are all very worried about you." The doorman said to Li Yun.

"I understand." Li Yun said, and walked quickly into the dim light of the lantern.

Sure enough, Chen Mo, Qin Lanlan, Dabao, and Xiaohua were sitting in the lobby waiting for her. Even Shangguan Feiyun was sitting there drinking tea, waiting for her to come back.

"Mom, you're finally back? You must have been worried to death about Sanbao." When Sanbao saw his mother, he rushed over and hugged her.

"I'm sorry for making you worry.

The Duke of Huguo and his family were so welcoming that they insisted on letting me come back after dinner, which is why I came back so late. Li Yun apologized to his family.

"Mom, is the Duke of Protectorate really your biological father?" Dabao asked with concern.

"Mother doesn't know about this either. She has lost her memory and has forgotten everything that happened before." Li Yun said.

"Yun'er, judging by your appearance, you and the Duke's wife look so much alike, you might really be mother and daughter.

If they are really your parents, will Yun'er recognize them? "Qin Lanlan felt that there was a high chance that Yun'er was the biological daughter of the Duke of Huguo, and she wanted to know whether Yun'er would recognize them.

"I won't consider this for now. I want to regain my memory first, and then decide whether to recognize them." Li Yun said to Qin Lanlan.
