Chapter 14 Jiang Ruoxi encounters an accident when recognizing her relatives
Wen Shuyao burst into tears and said, "Ruoxi, after all these years I found you. I thought I would never find you again in this life."
Jiang Ruoxi's eyes were also red, and she gently patted Wen Shuyao's back to comfort her: "Mom, I finally see you. I thought you didn't want me anymore? It turns out that you never gave up looking for me. Who would have known that after all the twists and turns, you were right beside me!"
The two hugged each other for a long time before separating. Wen Shuyao looked at Jiang Ruoxi carefully. Her eyes and eyebrows were 90% similar to herself when she was young, but she was more confident than herself.
"My daughter, I am your dad!" Jiang Chengyue spoke only after seeing his daughter and wife stop crying.
"dad!"
"Oh..." Jiang Chengyue agreed happily.
"Dad, Mom, this is Lu Tingxiao, my fiancé!" Jiang Ruoxi took Lu Tingxiao's hand and introduced him.
"Well, I've seen it before!" Jiang Chengyue said dissatisfiedly.
"What are you doing?" Wen Shuyao bent Jiang Chengyue's arm.
"Hello, Xiao Lu! I held you in my arms when you were a child." Wen Shuyao said to Lu Tingxiao affectionately.
The two families discussed the family recognition banquet and finally decided to hold it on January 18, the first day of the twelfth lunar month.
With three days left until January 18, Jiang Chengyue personally set about arranging the venue for the family reunion banquet while waiting for his two sons to return. The eldest son Jiang Jinghuai and the second son Jiang Jingyi hurried home and shouted as soon as they entered the door: "Dad, where is my little sister?" Jiang Chengyue smiled and said: "You will see her soon. You should discuss what gift to prepare for your sister!"
After hearing what Jiang Chengyue said, the two brothers were so excited that their sister had been found that they hadn't even prepared a gift for her! The two of them were sitting on the sofa in the living room, mumbling to each other, when they heard, "Jing Huai, Jing Yi, what are you two talking about?"
The two brothers looked up and saw that it was their uncle and aunt. They asked in surprise, "Uncle, aunt, you are here. We were just discussing what gift to give to my little sister. Where are cousin Yifei and cousin Yiyang?"
"They can only arrive tonight, so let them come to help early in the morning on the 18th! You have to be attentive, after all, your little sister has been wandering outside for so many years!" Uncle Wen was also very excited. The Wen family has always been a family with more men than women, and it was rare for them to have a delicate and gentle daughter.
Time flies, and January 18th is here in the blink of an eye. The Jiang family decorated the house with lights and guests came one after another. Jiang Ruoxi wore a cream-colored sweater on her upper body, a pair of exquisite black straight-leg pants on her lower body, a camel-colored coat on the outside, a scarf of the same color, and half-height leather boots on her feet. She walked slowly into the hall holding Lu Tingxiao's arm.
When she stepped into the Jiang family's gate, Jiang Chengyue and others stood up excitedly, their eyes fixed on her. When everyone looked at her, they were dazzled by the sight of the girl, who was tall and graceful with an extraordinary temperament. Jiang Chengyue's eyes were red: "My daughter, you are finally back!" Jiang Ruoxi's heart ached, tears welled up in her eyes, and she called softly: "Dad..." The family hugged each other and cried, and Lu Tingxiao beside them also showed a relieved smile.
The two brothers of the Jiang family came forward holding carefully prepared gifts. Jiang Jinghuai gave a Shanghai brand women's watch with an exquisite and elegant dial, while Jiang Jingyi gave a Seagull brand camera!
Afterwards, the recognition ceremony officially began. Jiang Ruoxi respectfully offered tea to her parents, her eyes filled with tears of happiness. The friends and family in the audience were all deeply moved.
Just when everyone was happily immersed in this joy, suddenly, a loud and noisy sound came into everyone's ears without warning. People looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people entering the door one after another. Walking in front was a middle-aged man with a gloomy and unfriendly look. He is tall and strong, with powerful steps, and every step seems to carry a heavy pressure.
As soon as the middle-aged man entered the banquet hall, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Humph! How can this family reunion banquet be held so hastily? Whether Jiang Ruoxi is the real daughter of the Jiang family must be subject to more rigorous and careful inspection!" His voice was as loud as a bell and instantly spread throughout the banquet hall.
In an instant, the originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere seemed to be swept by an invisible cold current, and suddenly became solemn and tense. Everyone looked at each other with expressions of surprise and confusion on their faces. The family reunion banquet, which had just been filled with laughter and joy, now fell into a dead silence.
At this time, Lu Tingxiao stood up and asked sternly, "Who are you? Do you have any evidence to prove that Ruoxi is not the daughter of the Jiang family?"
"I am Jiang Xueli, the current patriarch of the Jiang family. Everyone in the Jiang family knows that from the day they are born, they will be given an agarwood plaque. The boy's plaque has a dragon on one side and a ruyi on the other, while the girl's plaque has a phoenix and a ruyi on the other. The child's name will be engraved on the lower right corner of the plaque. Do you have a Jiang family plaque?"
"Is this what you are talking about?" Jiang Ruoxi took out a wooden sign from her bag (actually she took it out from the space).
"You...how do you have the wooden sign? Wasn't the wooden sign lost that year?" Jiang Xueli said in disbelief.
"Do you think this wooden sign must be lost? My loss back then was not only caused by Zhao Bingquan, but also by you, right?" Jiang Ruoxi said sarcastically.
"Also, do you think I should call you Jiang Xueli, the leader of the Jiang clan? Or should I call you Yamamoto Masao?" After saying that, Jiang Ruoxi reached out with lightning speed and grabbed Yamamoto Masao's neck tightly.
"Baga, how did you know that? Did Zhao Bingquan tell you?"
"Oh? It seems that Zhao Bingquan didn't explain everything. He doesn't need to tell me, do you know what the characteristics of you Japanese people are?" Jiang Ruoxi said coldly.
"Because of the tone of voice when you speak, our Chinese language is profound and extensive. You dare to come to China to cause trouble without studying China thoroughly. If I don't beat you until your face is full of peach blossoms, you won't know why the flowers are so red!" After saying that, Jiang Ruoxi increased the strength of her hands and almost strangled Yamamoto Masao to death.
Jiang Ruoxi looked around but couldn't find the handy tool. At this moment, a stick from a tea tree was handed to her!
"Ruoxi, use this, or your hand will hurt!" Jiang Ruoxi looked up and saw that it was Lu Tingxiao who handed her the stick. She instantly felt relieved. She took the stick and beat Yamamoto Masao until he cried for his parents.
Jiang Ruoxi was relieved after the beating and shouted to Jiang Chengyue, "Dad, find someone to tie him up and interrogate him. Zhao Bingquan might have committed treason, so you may need to re-interrogate him. Someone went to my house a few days ago when I was out, and I didn't lose anything. I thought about it, and I don't have anything valuable or special. I thought about it and the only option is this wooden sign. I have been carrying this sign with me since Jiang Daguo returned it to me. Only this sign can prove my identity. If the sign is lost, I can find a way to prove it, but it will be very troublesome!"
"Come here, take him away and lock him up first. Wait until I'm done here and interrogate him overnight!" Jiang Chengyue ordered the orderly.
"Yes, Chief!"
