When a person
A moment later, Jiang Yunshu suddenly came back to his senses and subconsciously stepped back, but the two hands that were holding her face dropped first.
The head of the Jiang family leaned back in his chair, looking at her with a gentle gaze as soft as water, and said in a gentle voice: "Xiao Shu, I hope you can behave like a human being."
Jiang Yunshu looked at him.
"Be a living person with joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness." The Jiang family head said, "This world is beautiful. I hope you can see it and experience its beauty for yourself."
He looked into the child's eyes seriously, and said in a gentle but clear voice: "Xiao Shu, try your best, okay?"
Jiang Yunshu looked at him calmly and indifferently, his dark eyes neither dodging nor avoiding, and said calmly: "Okay."
The head of the Jiang family smiled.
"Would you like to come and pick one?" He raised his hand, pointed at the computer screen next to him, and asked with a frown, "Where do you want to live?"
Jiang Yunshu didn't turn around to look, but just said calmly: "It's all right."
It makes no difference where she lives; she doesn't care.
The head of the Jiang family was not surprised by this answer and nodded with a smile.
…………
In the sunshine.
"Xiao Shu, is this okay?"
The young man held the child in one hand, pointed forward with the other, and asked with a smile on his face.
Jiang Yunshu looked at the people hurriedly walking in front of him and the building behind them, with no reaction on his face, and just said "hmm".
"Master!" The man who arrived first smiled broadly and bowed to the Jiang family master. "Why did you bother coming here in person? We originally wanted to pick up Miss Yunshu..."
The Jiang family patriarch wore a faint smile as he lowered his eyes to look at the calm child next to him. He took a small gift bag from the person next to him and handed it to her. "Xiao Shu, I've saved my number in your phone. Call me if you have anything. I'll also send you a message before I take you out to play. Remember to check it."
Jiang Yunshu said "hmm" and took it.
The man in front of her seemed to have noticed her and said to her with a smile, "Miss Yunshu, Yunshu, I will be your adoptive father from now on."
He pulled over a woman dressed elegantly and refinedly and introduced her, “This is your adoptive mother.”
The woman smiled appropriately, bent down slightly, and reached out to hold the child's hand. "Yun Shu, I am your adoptive mother. We are a family. You can tell me anything in the future."
Jiang Yunshu looked at them calmly, and moved his hand to avoid the woman's outstretched hand.
The smile on the woman's face froze for a moment, then she put on a proper smile again, calmly withdrew her hand, and straightened her back.
"Master, please rest assured and leave Yunshu to us. The children in the family are all of similar age to Yunshu, and we will get along well with her." The man next to him said to the master of the Jiang family.
He had sharp eyes and saw what happened just now, but the bright smile on his face remained unchanged.
He had already inquired about the child's strange temper. Sending him away from his ancestral land at the age of five was just to temper his character... He was prepared for this.
The woman in exquisite and elegant clothes smiled slightly twisted, suppressing her anger and cursing in her heart - this bastard didn't even remind her, but just laughed at her!
"Yeah." The Jiang family patriarch casually glanced at the man in front of him, then smiled and said to the child next to him, "Go ahead, Xiaoshu, be happy here."
He pushed Jiang Yunshu forward.
Jiang Yunshu obediently walked towards the couple in front.
"Yun Shu, come quickly."
The two men nodded at her with smiles on their faces, but they knew her temper and did not reach out rashly.
This child had a bad temper, but it looked like he was still very much favored by the head of the family. Wasn't that why they took him in? No matter how much they wanted to correct him, they didn't dare to rush into it.
If I really had a head-on conflict with her, what would I do if she went to complain to the head of the family when she was unhappy?
Ancestor, this is the little ancestor.
They should be worshipped as ancestors...
As soon as the head of the Jiang family left, the man who was his adoptive father also left first.
"Qili! Bring Shuangyu and the others down!"
As they walked through the door, the woman shouted first.
“Here I come!”
After a response, "da da da..." several overlapping footsteps came from far away.
A girl of seven or eight years old came first, and behind her, a boy and a girl, two children of four or five years old who looked very similar, followed reluctantly, dragging their feet.
"Yunshu." The adoptive mother smiled and bent down to introduce Jiang Yunshu, "This is Qili. She is three years older than you. From now on, when your adoptive father and I go out, you can talk to Qili if you have anything."
She held out her hand and took the four or five-year-old girl over, introducing her, "This is Shuangyu. She's about your age. I think you two should get along well."
She let go of Jiang Shuangyu's hand and gestured to the remaining boy, "This is Shuangli, Shuangyu's twin. This child is very smart and has his own ideas."
Each generation of the Jiang family's descendants are screened for talent in the ancestral land, and then decide whether to stay in the ancestral land or be uniformly distributed to the outside world. They only have adoptive parents, and no one knows who their biological parents are.
The Jiang family's children never think about or look for their biological parents. They know that even if they find their biological parents, they will not receive sympathy or more resources. Instead, they will lose countless opportunities for competition in the future because of their own stupidity.
Without strength, resources, and family cultivation, the final outcome is to be swept into an unattended corner like waste, waiting to mold and stink.
The foster mother smiled, straightened up, and introduced the three children in front of her: "This is Yunshu, the family we will live with from now on."
The children looked at each other and nodded.
Jiang Shuangyu and Jiang Shuangli tried to suppress their impatience, but an expression of reluctance unconsciously appeared between their eyebrows.
Jiang Yunshu's expression was as calm and indifferent as ever.
In the silence, Jiang Qili smiled brightly and said to her adoptive mother, "We understand. I will take good care of my sister!"
"Qili is the best!" the adoptive mother praised with a smile.
She glanced at Jiang Shuangyu and Jiang Shuangli calmly, her smile unchanged as she said to Jiang Qili, "Didn't Qili say last time that she wanted to drink the repair fluid? Then Qili, take an extra bottle this month!"
In an instant, Jiang Shuangyu and Jiang Shuangli raised their eyes suddenly, and when they saw the smile on their adoptive mother's face, they lowered their eyes again.
"Thank you, Mom. I will definitely work harder this month!" The smile on Jiang Qili's face became more and more charming.
She smiled and glanced at Jiang Yunshu calmly. When her eyes touched her hands, she seemed to know something. She did not rush forward, but said to Jiang Yunshu: "Sister Yunshu, Mom prepared a room for you the day she knew you were coming. Let me take you up to see it!"
After hearing this, the smile on the adoptive mother's face brightened a little. She pursed her lips, restrained the curve of her mouth, and said gently to Jiang Yunshu: "Our place is not like our ancestral land. Tell me if you are missing anything."
Jiang Shuangyu and Jiang Shuangli looked at each other silently.
Jiang Shuangyu's lips twitched as if she was about to smile, but she gave up after a moment. She said lightly, "Mom knows that when you were in the ancestral land, you liked to sit by the floor-to-ceiling windows and enjoy the scenery, so she specially prepared a room with floor-to-ceiling windows on the fifth floor."
The adoptive mother smiled but said nothing.
Jiang Qili added with a smile: "And Shuangyu, Shuangyu secretly prepared a gift for you!"
"Oh my!" The foster mother covered her mouth in surprise and laughed, "I didn't even know when Shuangyu prepared this!"
Jiang Shuangyu replied calmly, "It's just a small token of my appreciation. I'll leave it in Yunshu's room."
The adoptive mother looked at the twins holding hands with a gentle smile, "You are both good children. So, to celebrate Yunshu joining us, Mommy will give you two a little gift... Hmm, how about a bottle of repair fluid for each of you?"
"Thank you, Mom." Jiang Shuangyu and Jiang Shuangli said in unison.
The foster mother smiled and turned to Jiang Yunshu beside her and said, "Let's go up and take a look at the room together."
Jiang Yunshu nodded and followed her upstairs.
After them, the three children followed quietly, their lowered eyes flashing with a hint of contemplation at the same time.
"Mom didn't tell her. Does that mean she doesn't need it, or... doesn't need it?"
In the bright room, the gauze swayed gently in the sunlight.
"Yun Shu, do you like it?"
The foster mother asked, tilting her head.
There was no expression on Jiang Yunshu's face, and her dark eyes, which could not let any light in, were like a pool of stagnant water. She said "hmm".
After a pause, she remembered what the Patriarch had said to her these days, and slowly said, "I like it."
The adoptive mother nodded: "As long as you like it."
Suddenly, Jiang Qili and Jiang Shuangli came over, accompanied by Jiang Shuangyu. Jiang Shuangyu handed the bag in her hand to Jiang Yunshu and said calmly, "Open it and take a look."
Jiang Yunshu did as he was told and took out a delicate and beautiful teddy bear doll wearing a knitted skirt.
The adoptive mother immediately covered her mouth and laughed, "It really is a teddy bear. Now our whole family has one. They are all gifts from Shuangyu."
Jiang Shuangyu lowered her eyes, feeling a little embarrassed. She didn't dare to look at Jiang Yunshu's reaction. The tips of her ears turned red as she said in a low voice, "I don't know if you like it or not..."
Jiang Yunshu held the teddy bear, his face calm, and said to her seriously, "Well, it's very beautiful. I like it very much. Thank you."
Jiang Shuangyu paused, his face flushed, and he buried his head even lower, not daring to look at her anymore. "Yeah, yeah, that's good."
The foster mother next to him watched this scene and the smile on her face widened.
…………
After dinner that day.
In the dim room, Jiang Yunshu sat in the same nest as the one in his ancestral home, holding the same bird doll and looking at the night view outside the window.
Nothing seems to be different.
Can I really be a human being like this?
What is a human being?
What is a human being?
What kind of appearance does she have to change into to become a human?
The phone next to him suddenly rang. Jiang Yunshu turned around, picked it up and saw that it was a message from a string of numbers.
Jiang Yunshu looked at the string of numbers and thought for a while, then added the words "head of the family" to the number.
Just as she finished making the note and returned to the message window, a phone call came in.
Jiang Yunshu answered the call.
"Xiao Shu?"
Jiang Yunshu said "hmm".
The Jiang family patriarch smiled and said, "What are you doing? Why haven't you replied to my message for so long?"
Less than ten seconds, how long was that… Jiang Yunshu calmly and truthfully replied, “I’m in the notes.”
"Did you give me a note?" The Jiang family patriarch was surprised for a moment, then asked expectantly, "What did you give me a note?"
"Master." Jiang Yunshu said without any hesitation.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then the Jiang family's head suddenly laughed: "Xiao Shu is really old-fashioned."
He didn't dwell on this question. Then, his voice dropped and he asked softly, "Xiao Shu is... having a good time over there?"
Jiang Yunshu thought for a second and replied, "Maybe." After all, it was only one day.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then the Jiang family's head suddenly asked:
"Xiao Shu, do you want to go back to your ancestral land?"
