Three days later, Suiyi, Qin Xiao, and the old man were all sitting in the living room chatting.
"Grandpa, is there something you need us for?" Qin Xiao asked.
"Indeed, there is something important, a big matter concerning my granddaughter-in-law!" the old man said.
"What is mine?" Suiyi asked, puzzled.
"Granddaughter-in-law, do you know who your parents are?"
"I don't know, I grew up in an orphanage." Sui Yi said, choosing the easier things to say.
Aren't you curious about your parents?
"Let nature take its course!"
"What would you do if someone came to you and said you were their daughter?"
"Grandpa, please stop testing me. What is it?"
"You know the Qu family, right? I know the current head of the Qu family, Qu Zhengran. He and his wife fell in love when they were young, so they had a very good relationship. They had a baby girl the year after they got married, but one time when they took the child out to play, those two idiots only cared about their own feelings and forgot about the child. Later, they couldn't find the child. A few days ago, you saw your granddaughter-in-law in the hall. She looks nine-tenths like the old lady of the Shui family, so you suspect that your granddaughter-in-law is their daughter."
"Uh, is it a blessing or a curse if it really is their daughter?" Sui Yi was speechless. There are still such bizarre parents in the world. They're really something else.
"Haha! They've been searching for their daughter for over twenty years, and now that there's even a glimmer of hope, they don't want to give up. What's your opinion, granddaughter-in-law?"
"If they really are my parents, then that's an undeniable fact, and there's nothing hard to accept about it; it's just that it's both funny and absurd."
“Yes, although they did not receive the debt of raising us, they still received the debt of giving us life. People should know how to repay kindness. I have invited the couple over, and you will meet them in a little while.”
"Good! This can be considered as fulfilling one of my wishes." At this moment, the steward came to report that someone had come to visit. Suiyi and the others got up and looked at the visitors. The visitors were Mr. and Mrs. Qu, as well as two elderly women.
"Oh my! Grandma Qu and Grandma Shui have both made an appointment today, are they here to play mahjong with me?" Grandpa Qin joked.
"You old fool, how could you not know why we're here? Stop arguing and delaying our business," said Madam Qu. She glanced at Suiyi standing to the side and immediately took a liking to her.
"You're Tao Tao, right? Come, sit down, let Grandma take a look." The old lady took Sui Yi's hand and pulled her to sit down.
"...Tch, you're already trying to claim kinship without even knowing if they're related to you." The old man showed absolutely no respect.
Sui Yi: "...".
"Why are you so thin, girl? I'll help you get some nourishment when we get home," said Madam Qu. At this moment, Madam Shui also sat down on the other side of Suiyi.
"Yes, yes, look at this little face, there's hardly any flesh on it," said Madam Shui, touching Suiyi's face with heartache.
"Come on, let's go to Grandma's house. Grandma will cook you something delicious," said Madam Shui directly.
"Hey? You old woman, don't forget that Tao'er is already a member of the Qin family, and this is her home. Besides, you haven't even acknowledged each other yet!" the old man said unhappily.
“Tao’er looks nine-tenths like me when I was young, she’s definitely my granddaughter. Qingyu, I don’t think we need any paternity test. Tao’er is our granddaughter.” Old Madam Shui made the decision directly.
"Yes, but Mom, haven't you considered Tao'er's opinion yet?" Qu Zhengran finally interjected!
"Oh! That's right. Darling, do you want to acknowledge us two old ladies? As for your parents, they're very unreliable, so it's fine if you don't." Old Madam Qu asked Suiyi with a smile.
Qu Zhengran: "Does a mother like that even exist?"
Shui Qingyu: "...".
Sui Yi: "Madams, I am very grateful for your kindness, but I think it would be better to do a paternity test. People these days look quite similar. If I am really the one you are looking for, then I will not refuse and will acknowledge the child. If I am not, then you can continue your search, or I can help you."
“That makes sense, Tao’er. But even if you’re not the person we’re looking for, I still want you to be my granddaughter,” said Madam Qu.
"Hehe! Good! I also want more relatives." After saying that, Suiyi plucked a hair from her head and handed it to Qu Zhengran behind her.
"Tao'er, I will get the test done as soon as possible and let you know when it's done."
"Yes! Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Qu." Sui Yi said very politely.
"Haha! Since my mother has recognized you as her granddaughter, how about you call me godfather for now?" Qu Zhengran looked at Suiyi expectantly.
“Yes, yes, call me godmother first. I like Tao’er more and more the more I look at her. How about Tao’er goes to godmother’s house for a day today?” Shui Qingyu extended an invitation.
Qin Xiao: "This is truly unbearable. Another group of people are here vying for my favor."
"Grandma Qu, Grandma Shui, today is only the third day of my marriage with Tao'er. I want to take Tao'er on our honeymoon." Lin Xiao said directly, because he needed to take Tao'er away as soon as possible to avoid distracting her.
"This..." Both old ladies hesitated. They were reluctant to let Tao'er leave, but she was newly married and they didn't want to disturb her. It was really a difficult situation.
"Alright! Go ahead and have fun. We can wait a month." Qu Zhengran greeted the two elderly people and bid farewell to Grandpa Qin and Suiyi.
"Have lunch before you leave, it's a rare opportunity for you to come all this way," the old man urged.
"No need, we have things to do. Mom, let's go."
"Okay! Tao'er, come visit us when you have time. This is Grandma's number, you can call me if you miss me." Old Madam Qu handed a piece of paper to Suiyi. Suiyi took it and got up to see them out.
