Watching the couple's "affectionate" performance, Wang Caixia and the others were thoroughly fed up. If you want to cry and act all lovey-dovey, can you at least answer the questions first?

Is it okay to let Xiaotangyuan watch from the side? Isn't that a bit inappropriate for children?

"Ahem, gentlemen, excuse me for interrupting. Could we finish what we were saying first, and then you two can share your feelings?" Wang Caixia said.

Tian Xiaolan, who was standing nearby, gave her sister-in-law a thumbs up.

The couple opposite them then realized they had acted inappropriately.

Only then did the woman straighten her expression and say, "Actually, it was my own stupidity in doing this."

Before Fu Bao was born, I had already found a wet nurse, and I only brought her to the mansion when she was about to give birth.

I fell down early that morning and my water broke.

It wouldn't be accurate to call it premature, but it was about ten days earlier than expected.

After Fu Bao was born, I was exhausted, so I handed the baby over to the wet nurse to take care of. I didn't even get to see the baby once.

Fu Bao was raised to be one year old, and the child's features became clearer and clearer.

As you can see, my husband and I look completely different; the child doesn't resemble us at all.

Six months ago, on Fu Bao's second birthday, there were many people in the family that day, and Fu Bao was especially dependent on her wet nurse's care.

My mother-in-law and I were greeting guests in the front hall when the wet nurse secretly took the child to the back garden.

That day, my husband returned to the capital after reporting for duty. When he arrived home, he naturally wanted to see our son. When we couldn't find him or our wet nurse in the room, we started looking for them.

A young maid said she saw the wet nurse take the young master to the back garden, so naturally my husband and I went to the back garden to look for the child.

As a result, we discovered, we discovered…

The woman started crying again as she spoke.

After crying for a while and trying to control her emotions, she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief and continued.

"We discovered that my baby looks exactly like that man."

My mother-in-law thought I was having an affair.

I was shocked. How could my baby look so much like another man? So I ordered my men to arrest the couple.

At first, they refused to say anything. In fact, the man even went along with his mother-in-law's words and slandered me, saying that I had an affair with Fu Bao, who was born out of wedlock.

If my husband hadn't believed in my innocence back then, my grave would probably be overgrown with weeds by now.

Under severe torture, the wet nurse confessed first, revealing that she had harbored wicked intentions after entering the household and that her son was premature.

It was thin and weak, only two or three months old, about the size of a newborn.

She and her husband then agreed to switch the two babies on the day I gave birth.

That's why it took us so long to find our child. *sobs*

The woman buried her head in the man's arms and continued to cry.

Wang Caixia frowned.

"Oh, so you've never even seen what the baby looks like after it was born?"

More than two years later, how did you find the orphanage, and how did you confirm that Xiao Tangyuan was your child?

The man spoke.

"I am General Moganshan of Wuwei. After that man took my son away, he initially kept him at home for more than half a month."

He was afraid that if my wife discovered something was wrong, she would punish him, so he didn't throw the child away and continued to feed him rice gruel every day.

Later, feeling that the matter had been kept secret, they sold my son to a merchant couple.

The couple had supposedly never had children, but after raising my son for a month, she became pregnant.

I get annoyed when I see my son crying and fussing.

We happened to arrive at our Lingnan Prefecture, so we left my son in a dilapidated temple.

As for what happened next, that's for you to know.

When I found the dilapidated temple, I discovered that there were no begging children or even elderly people inside.

After inquiring, I learned that all the children in that area had been adopted by a children's home.

So I asked Lord Qiu to come and help me find my son.

That's when I realized that this child looked somewhat like me and was about the same age.

Especially this child; he knows that traveling merchant. That's enough to prove that this child is my son.

Zhao Qingyan listened from the side, wanting to say something.

"Even if they look alike, it doesn't necessarily mean they are your child unless a paternity test is done."

After listening to the man's story, Wang Caixia said,

"What you've said still doesn't convince me that Xiaotangyuan is your child."

Therefore, before you are 100% certain, please consider any other methods that can prove the child's identity. Otherwise, if the child is brought to your household later and there are suspicions that he is not of your bloodline,

How were you supposed to handle Little Tangyuan back then?

He is still young. Here, although we don't have luxurious clothes and food, we can still make ends meet and have access to education and skills to learn.

Who can say that this child can't live a good life on his own in the future?

But if a child leaves the orphanage, his life is no longer up to him.

Everything may depend on the conscience of you so-called parents.

Especially if the two of them have other children in the future, it doesn't mean they will always treat Xiaotangyuan well.

I hope you two can understand what I'm saying.

All my worries stem from concerns about Little Tangyuan's future happiness.

Mo Ganshan now harbored many grievances against his own mother.

He couldn't blame his wife for being too weak after giving birth.

As the grandmother, she neither cared nor asked about it.

If the mother had been present at the time, she would have had some impression of the child's appearance upon first seeing him, and the subsequent events would not have occurred.

After frowning and deep in thought, Mo Ganshan suddenly rolled up his sleeves, revealing a birthmark on the back of his hand.

It was a black birthmark shaped like a sword, its gaze fixed intently on Little Tangyuan.

"I don't know if this child has the same birthmark as me. This is the only thing I can think of."

Shunzi, who had been holding the little dumpling the whole time, looked utterly shocked.

Upon seeing Wang Caixia nod at him, he gritted his teeth and reluctantly rolled up the sleeve of Xiao Tangyuan's left arm.

There was a birthmark there that looked exactly like the one in Moganshan, and even in the same location.

The couple from Moganshan were absolutely thrilled when they saw the birthmark.

Mrs. Mo wanted to reach out and hug Little Tangyuan, but the child turned around and hugged Shunzi's neck instead.

"Brother, hug me."

One sentence from the child made Mrs. Mo burst into tears again.

Since the child belongs to someone else, the orphanage has no reason to hold onto the child and refuse to return him.

But some things still need to be made clear.

Tian Xiaolan's feelings for Xiao Tangyuan were deeper than Wang Caixia's, after all, she was the one who helped search for Xiao Tangyuan on the day it went missing.

This child has had so many misfortunes; I'm afraid that if I send the child back, something else might happen, so it's better not to return him at all.
