Shen Jingyao immediately beckoned to Wen Shu and said, "Come, child, sit down. Today, our two families will have a meal together!"
Wen Shu sat down next to her grandmother, and at the same time noticed that everyone in the room was looking at her.
She sat quietly, without saying a word.
Besides Lin Han, there were other young people at the table.
Lin Tuantuan sat down with Wen Rourou and gave him some food. Wen Rourou ate obediently.
For a moment, no one spoke at the table.
Finally, the oldest person at the table spoke up: "Sister Qin, it was my decision to invite you and the children here today. They initially tried to keep it from me, but I discovered some clues myself, which led me to make this decision. You've worked so hard all these years!"
Grandma smiled and shook her head, saying, "Mr. Lin, please don't say that. You're a year older than me. I should call you 'older brother.' Over the years, I haven't felt it's been hard at all. Wen Shu is a sensible child. She's ambitious, hardworking, and responsible. She's the best child I've ever met."
Grandma's voice choked with emotion as she spoke.
She looked at Wen Shu, took Wen Shu's hand, and whispered to her, "Wen Shu, do you remember when I told you that Su Ying wasn't your biological mother?"
Wen Shu didn't realize that tears were welling up in her eyes, but she held them back and nodded gently.
Grandma said with a look of relief, "I know it's unrealistic to expect you to accept this so quickly, but... Wenshu, Grandma has always had a wish. Grandma hopes that after I pass away, you won't be alone."
"Grandma hopes that by then, besides your children and husband, you will have many more relatives and friends by your side, so that no matter what difficulties you encounter or what you go through, you can have the best people to confide in."
Grandma took a deep breath and said, "A woman like Su Ying doesn't deserve such an excellent daughter as you. Thank God she's not your mother. And today, I finally have the chance to return you to your real mother!"
"Ms. Shen Jingyao is your true mother, and Mr. Lin Yiyu is your true father. Wen Shu, from the moment you were born, you were the object of everyone's anticipation; you were never alone from the moment you were born!"
“You’re not just some poor little thing who only has your grandma. You have a dad, a mom, a brother, and so many brothers and sisters! Wen Shu, they didn’t abandon you on purpose; your existence has always been their expectation!”
"If anyone is to blame, it's that vicious woman. She ruined your happy life and made you suffer all these years. For her own selfish desires, she secretly switched your identity with her daughter's!"
"Wen Shu, after all these years, you finally have your own father and mother, and finally your own home. Grandma is so happy..."
By the end, Grandma was sobbing uncontrollably.
Today, she returned the child she had raised with great difficulty to the Lin family, and she also knew that the culprit behind all of this was the person she had raised as her daughter.
Therefore, she was heartbroken and filled with remorse. She felt grief and indignation, yet also relieved for Wen Shu.
Wen Shu finally has a home!
Shen Jingyao can finally openly embrace her biological daughter!
Overwhelmed with emotion, she burst into tears, holding Wen Shu tightly in her arms, wanting to express her guilt, her heartache, and all her unbearable pain.
In the end, Shen Jingyao could only hold her daughter, whom she had lost and found again, and wail uncontrollably, unable to utter a single word.
Wen Shu's eyes reddened.
Deep down, she had countless such guesses, but they were just guesses after all!
Unexpectedly, her guess came true today.
She was indeed not an orphan of unknown origin; she had parents and siblings.
At this moment, she was held in the arms of the most familiar stranger in the world, and the sound of Shen Jingyao crying could be heard in her ears. Unexpectedly, she felt calm inside.
Aside from the tears streaming down her face, she was remarkably calm.
Wen Shu asked herself, should she feel resentment?
She felt she had reason to resent them. Where were her parents when she needed them most? Why did they only come to acknowledge her after she had grown up?
Why didn't you do this sooner?
She still resented why it had to be her. Why her of all people?
She felt wronged and sad deep down. There are so many people in the world, so many children, so many children from happy and fulfilling families who are so lucky, why was it her?
Lin Yiyu quickly walked around, reached out and hugged his wife and their daughter, whom he had just found, and said, choking back tears, "Wen Shu, I'm sorry. I know you should resent us and hate us. It's understandable that you have these emotions."
"But Dad still wants to explain to you that we really didn't mean it. We never even thought about it all these years... We've been deceived. If we had known we were raising someone else's child, and that our child was suffering outside, we would have searched the ends of the earth to find you!"
"I'm sorry, child, I'm so sorry. You don't have to forgive us, but please allow us to hug you and allow us to seek some peace of mind."
Wen Shu's tears flowed like a dam bursting open, her tear ducts seemingly out of control, gushing forth uncontrollably.
From a young age, she envied those children who had fathers and mothers. Every day after school, other children were picked up by their parents, but she only had her grandmother.
My grandmother was already showing signs of old age then, and the image of her taking out a piece of candy or a biscuit from her bag every time she did so remains in my memory.
My grandmother was great; she devoted her entire life and all her energy to raising me.
