As she spoke, Granny Lu took out the portrait with utmost respect and slowly unfolded it.
When the Rong family saw that the woman in the portrait looked eight or nine parts like their Sheng Bao, they covered their mouths in astonishment, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"Sheng Bao is actually the daughter of Feng Sijin, the former patriarch of the Feng family!"
Madam Xu: "Shengbao, Shengbao... I finally had a daughter, and I thought I would watch her grow up to be worshipped by thousands, see her get married and have children, but I never expected that Shengbao would be... would be... God is so unfair to me!"
Ronghua: "Does my sister know about this?"
Granny Lu nodded: "Miss knows everything."
What was Na Shengbao's reaction?
Granny Lu smiled and said, "Miss neglected Master for a few days at first, and only after confirming that she was Master's daughter did she acknowledge him. But so far, Miss has not yet returned to her ancestral home, because Miss has you all in her heart."
In Miss's heart, you are her family, while Master is just a family member who came along halfway through life. Naturally, his feelings for you cannot compare. Moreover, the capital is currently very turbulent, and Miss dares not acknowledge her ancestors at this critical juncture. Only Grandfather asked me to invite you to the capital for a chat.
But it's alright, everyone, don't worry. Grandpa isn't that kind of stubborn old man. You all have been kind to Miss, and Grandpa isn't a heartless person. He will definitely repay you all and won't separate you from Miss.
So please don't worry, just pack your things and we'll set off for the capital immediately. The New Year is just around the corner, and I'm sure Miss will be very happy to see you going to the capital.”
Shengbao is a good child, and she certainly wouldn't abandon them heartlessly and trample their sincerity underfoot.
They weren't sure if their trip to the capital would cause trouble for Sheng Bao, since Sheng Bao was already part of Prince Yi's faction.
They hadn't received news of Prince Yi's imprisonment, but they knew that the Emperor had never gotten along with Prince Yi. With the protection of Sheng Bao, Prince Qin, and the Feng family, Prince Yi was unlikely to be in any danger, but they were not so sure.
They could very well become bargaining chips for the Emperor to threaten Prince Yi and Sheng Bao. In that case, not only would they themselves be in trouble, but they would also implicate Prince Yi and Sheng Bao, which would be a huge loss.
So they were all filled with anxiety and looked at each other, unable to make up their minds for a while.
When Granny Lu saw the Rong family like this, she understood their thoughts. They were truly kind and simple country folk. If it were anyone else, they would have packed their things and gone to the capital to rely on the powerful Feng family as their backer.
That's why Granny Lu patiently persuaded them for a long time before finally convincing them to pack their things and go to the capital to reunite with Rong Sheng and enjoy family life.
However, they had many things to do and couldn't just leave immediately, so they handed over all their tasks to others to ensure there wouldn't be any mistakes before packing up and leaving.
It only takes two or three days to get from Wenhong County to the capital. With only two or three days left until the New Year, they rode at full speed without stopping for a moment and arrived in the capital in a day and a half.
Su Wenlan is from the capital. Now that Rong Mu and the others are heading to the capital, she naturally won't stay in Wenhong County. She will go to the capital with them and settle things between her and Rong Mu.
She had received a letter from her brother saying that their parents did not object to her being with Rong Mu, but they also did not say that they agreed to her being with Rong Mu, which was a very ambiguous attitude.
Therefore, she had to return to the capital to find out her parents' attitude. Whether they agreed or not, she would do her best to make them agree to be with Rong Mu, because she really liked Rong Mu.
Rong Mu held Su Wenlan's small hand tightly: "Lanlan, things will work themselves out. There's no use worrying now. Only when we get to the capital will everything become clear. Don't worry, I, Rong Mu, am not the kind of fickle and irresponsible man. Now that I've chosen you, you are the only woman I can't tolerate in this life. So no matter what happens next, I will face it with you. No matter what difficulties or setbacks we encounter, as long as we love each other, no difficulty will be insurmountable."
Su Wenlan leaned sweetly on Rong Mu's shoulder: "I was worrying too much. You're right, things will work themselves out. We will definitely get my parents' approval."
Besides, their parents might not necessarily object to them being together. You know, Jixiang has wanted her to get married for a long time, but no man wanted to marry her because she had body odor and freckles on her face.
But now that the body odor is gone and the dark spots are gone, my parents won't object.
Thinking of this, Su Wenlan's anxious heart gradually calmed down.
When Han Chan learned that Rong Hua's whole family was going to the capital to spend the New Year with Rong Sheng, she felt a little sad. She knew she shouldn't stop them from reuniting, but she just couldn't bear to be separated from them. If they left, she would be all alone.
Ronghua knew this, so she suggested that Han Chan and her brother come to the capital with her. The siblings had never left Wenhong County before, let alone the bustling capital.
Han Chan quickly refused, "No, how can we go to the capital with you? My brother and I are waiting for you here. Just come back soon. Besides, your greenhouse can't be left unattended. Although I'm not as capable as you, I can help keep an eye on it. Brother Ronghua, we appreciate your kindness. Please come back soon, okay?"
Ronghua frowned deeply, her face full of disapproval. "As the saying goes, a husband and wife should be in harmony. Chanchan, our relationship is clear, we're just waiting for our engagement and marriage. This trip to the capital is to finalize things for my third brother and his wife. Why don't you come with me, and we can settle things together?"
"This..." Han Chan hesitated, "Brother, I know you're reluctant to leave and want to take me with you, but..."
"No, but this matter is up to Ronghua." Madam Xu lifted the curtain and came in: "You silly child, although you and the eldest brother are not married and have children yet, in Liang's heart, you are already our family, an inseparable part, so wherever we go, you have to go too, okay? Go home and pack your and your brother's clothes, and we'll go to the capital together to have a look!"
"Mother, I know you've always been good to my brother and me, but this matter is a bit inappropriate," Han Chan refused.
