Hearing the sound of horses' hooves outside, Old Mrs. Qiao pushed Qiao Yunni out the door: "Quick, they're here."
The Qiao family all knew about this, and they had already processed it.
Regardless of whether their younger sister or aunt is their biological sister or aunt, they will always be their dearest younger sister or aunt.
It doesn't affect anything.
Following Old Mrs. Qiao's instructions, they changed into their best clothes, and the men all took leave from the camp to stay home and welcome the Chu family.
The carriage stopped in front of the Qiao family's courtyard. Qiao Lian'er helped Old Madam Chu down from the carriage, while Wei Chi helped Old Master Chu.
"Sisi, Sisi—"
As Old Madam Chu groped forward, she felt a motherly connection with her daughter, as if her beloved Sisi was right there.
Seeing the two elders of the Chu family, so thin and frail, unable to even walk properly, the Qiao family felt a pang of sadness.
Although she was about the same age as Grandma and Grandpa Qiao, she looked ten years older than them.
"Madam, Sisi isn't here," Old Master Chu reminded her.
Lian'er said that this courtyard is her home, and they should first come to her house to stay, have some tea, and exchange pleasantries.
Even though they were eager to see their daughter, the girl had accompanied them all the way, chatting and laughing with them, making them happy, so they had to give her face.
"Sisi is here, Sisi is right here." Old Madam Chu rolled her empty eyes, searching blankly.
Qiao Yunni looked at her biological parents, her gaze suddenly fixed, her eyelashes trembling, and her steps seemed to be propelled by something as she slowly stepped forward.
When she arrived in front of the Chu family elders, she was overwhelmed with emotions and suddenly felt like bursting into tears.
"Father, Mother," she called softly.
"Sisi, Sisi."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Chu felt a surge of energy and lunged forward.
Seeing this, Qiao Yunni quickly helped her to her feet.
"Is it Sisi? Is it my Sisi?" Old Madam Chu was very excited, yet she couldn't believe it.
Having received an affirmative answer, her trembling hands groped over Qiao Yunni's face, head, and body.
I felt the texture of gold and silver, the finest brocade, and fox fur.
Sisi's face wasn't rough; on the contrary, it was delicate and smooth. Sisi was dressed exquisitely, and she was living a good life.
With her heart at ease, Old Madam Chu beamed with joy, took Qiao Yunni's hand, and chattered on and on.
This official's wife, who had lived a life of high status, had never lost her composure like this before.
Grandpa Chu stared at Qiao Yunni for a long time, recognizing the shadows of the two elders in her face.
Tears welled up in his eyes, and he remained in shock for a long time.
Realizing something, he slowly turned to Qiao Lian'er: "So, Lian'er, you are—"
"Grandpa, I am your granddaughter."
Grandpa Chu seemed stunned. He had considered that since she was now part of this family, Lian'er must be the daughter of Qiao Yunni's three older brothers. He also vaguely guessed that the girl's tireless efforts might be for some reason—
After all, she had said that Sisi had a daughter.
It really is Sisi's child.
Old Master Chu was overjoyed, feeling that this was another great joy.
