"Yier, good granddaughter."
The old lady was exceptionally kind, looking at Xu Lingyi with loving eyes, "I've heard news from the Duke's Mansion that they will meet the day after tomorrow."
Her wrinkled hand touched Xu Lingyi's head, "Are you ready, Yi'er?"
Xu Lingyi nodded softly.
"Thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Yan's kindness, he has found these two young men for you to meet. No matter who our Yi'er chooses, she will be blessed for the rest of her life."
The old lady couldn't help but blush as she spoke. Now, even though they were just looking at each other, many people began to flatter the Xu family.
If Xu Lingyi really married into the family, it would not be a problem for the Xu family to move up to a higher level in the future.
"Put on all the clothes and jewelry that grandma has prepared for you. Grandma will help you check them."
These days, the old lady spent a lot of money to buy a lot of jewelry for Xu Lingyi, and also had many sets of clothes custom-made overnight, just to find the most stunning ones to wear.
After Xu Lingyi changed her clothes and came out, everyone in the room was stunned.
Some maids and servants even lost their composure and screamed out in surprise.
"Good! Grandmother's sweetheart." The old lady covered her chest, "I never thought that our Yi'er would be so stunning after just a little dressing up."
It’s a pity that this granddaughter was found not long ago and doesn’t have much affection for her family.
It would have been great if he had been raised in the Xu family from the beginning.
She felt sorry that she didn't have a close relationship with her granddaughter.
Although outsiders don’t know who their relative is, their family members all know clearly that they have no blood relationship.
"If the prince meets our Yi'er, and with Prince Yan as the matchmaker, this marriage will definitely not be a problem."
The old lady was full of confidence. Although the Xu family was not from a high-class family, they were a noble family after all.
Xu's father was a fourth-rank official and had always had a good reputation.
My other three grandsons are all gifted in studying, and my two granddaughters will marry into wealthy families soon.
It is obvious that the Xu family will prosper in the future.
Xu Lingyi lowered her head and pretended to be shy.
But the old lady held her hand kindly and gently, and she lowered her voice.
"You are my granddaughter. Although you haven't been home for long, you have the blood of our Xu family in your bones. Blood ties cannot be changed. I also know who is my grandson. All the good things I have saved over the years will only be left to you."
Xu Lingyi sneered in her heart, she simply thought that she would marry better and more valuable than Xu Wanning. Perhaps the old lady also said so in front of Xu Wanning.
Xu Lingyi didn't expose her, her face full of emotion, her voice choked with sobs, "Grandma..."
She raised her face slightly, her eyes red.
Who can't act?
Her reaction satisfied the old lady. It turned out that biological children were better. This child's heart was much more sincere than Xu Wanning's.
"How can a granddaughter want her grandmother's things..."
The old lady sighed and hugged Xu Lingyi. "A gift from an elder should not be refused. Grandmother gives it to you, Yi'er, so take it. Life is tough in this world, and it's not easy for women. If Yi'er has money, her life won't be so difficult in the future."
"Everyone only sees the glory of marrying into a wealthy family, but they don't know the bitterness behind it. It's not that easy to marry into a wealthy family..."
The old lady deliberately spoke, then changed the subject, "But our Yi'er doesn't have to worry. No matter what happens in the future, the Xu family will stand behind you. You are the daughter of the Xu family. No matter what you encounter, the Xu family will support you. You can't write two Xu characters with one stroke..."
Xu Lingyi knew that the last sentence was the old lady's key point.
"Grandma, your granddaughter knows."
The old lady's face was filled with relief. "Your three brothers will be your support in the future. The higher they climb, the stronger your support will be. As grandmother grows old, she only wants to see you brothers supporting each other."
"Your three brothers are all kind-hearted and dote on their sister the most. If it weren't for fate, which caused you to switch identities, they would have favored you."
"Now you see how kind they are to Ning'er. In fact, this is also their love for you, their sister."
The old lady raised her eyes and observed Xu Lingyi's reaction calmly. Seeing that she just lowered her head, she spoke again.
"You just returned home not long ago, so it's understandable that they can't accept it for a while, but siblings are siblings, you are born of the same mother. Sooner or later, they will understand that you are their real sister. All the kindness they showed to Xu Wanning in the past will sooner or later return to you double."
Xu Lingyi listened silently to the old lady's big promises, but she just wanted to laugh in her heart.
If he had any brotherly love, Xu San would not have pushed her into the lake last month.
The two older brothers, Xu Da and Xu Er, would not just stand by and watch.
Xu Lingyi will remember their cold indifference at that moment for the rest of her life.
From then on, she completely gave up on them.
It is not an exaggeration to say that I feel completely disheartened.
At the moment of death, all past experiences came flooding back to my mind.
She crawled from hell to the capital, experiencing all kinds of natural and man-made disasters along the way.
She escaped death countless times, and when she almost died on the road or at the hands of others, it was the imaginary family love that supported her.
She thought that as long as she found her biological parents, all the suffering would be over and she would have her own real relatives.
Xu Lingyi knew from a very young age that her adoptive parents were not her biological parents.
So when faced with their occasional misbehavior, beatings and insults, she could still comfort herself that she was not their biological child.
Even when her adoptive parents pushed her to death without hesitation, she told herself this in her heart.
She thought that if she found her biological parents, she would feel true family love.
It’s a pity...after returning to the Xu family, those beliefs that supported her were gone.
In a very short period of time, it completely collapsed.
