"I……"
Looking at the elderly woman before her, Aunt Chi felt a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.
Especially when the woman touched her cheek, the trembling touch made her heart ache.
Maybe……
But she has parents.
"Oh, Grandma, let's go inside and talk, okay? Have you eaten yet? Auntie won't talk to an old lady who hasn't eaten."
Yang Zhi made up a story off the top of his head and forcefully helped the old lady into the inner room.
Given the old lady's health, she shouldn't be going through any more trouble outside.
Old Madam Yang kept turning back to look at Aunt Chi, as if afraid she wouldn't see her again. She was still telling her grandson, "Don't run away, keep an eye on her..."
The Chi family felt a pang of sadness.
How much the old lady misses her daughter!
"She won't run away. Auntie is willing to come and see you, so she won't run away. Don't worry. Let's eat first. Granny, bring Grandma her breakfast first."
"Okay."
The old woman wiped away her tears with excitement and hurried off to serve breakfast.
very nice.
The old lady finally agreed to eat.
Granny Duan curtsied to Aunt Chi and then hurried off to the small kitchen.
Upon entering the house, the Chi family was stunned by the numerous portraits of Chi Tang displayed throughout the room.
Each painting depicts a mother's longing for her child.
Each painting was yellowed and curled from being handled so much. I don't know how many days and nights the old lady couldn't sleep, getting up to caress the paintings again and again.
Seeing everyone looking at the portraits, Old Madam Yang was actually a little shy: "Ruanruan, I don't know what you will look like when you grow up. I only remember what you looked like when you were one year old, so I can only draw what you looked like when you were one year old."
Who could have imagined that we would meet again forty years later?
Life is unpredictable; who could have foreseen this?
Aunt Chi turned her head away and reached out to wipe away the tears on her cheeks.
Regardless of whether they were biological mother and daughter, at this moment, she truly felt heartbroken for the old lady.
Wow, there are so many of me!
Chi Tang's innocent childlike voice quickly swept away the sadness in the room.
Chi Tang spun around on the ground, looking up at the portrait. Before long, she got dizzy and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Hahaha."
Everyone was amused.
Chi Tang immediately became unhappy. After being picked up by Xiao Wu, she buried her face in his arms and refused to lift her head.
How embarrassing!
She's over a year old, how could she still fall down?
This isn't a big shot!
"This girl is shy; she's always been a clever and mischievous little thing," Aunt Chi said candidly about her daughter.
Madam Yang's eyes seemed glued to Chi Tang. She wanted to reach out and touch her, but asked her fifth brother to carry Chi Tang away.
The crowd was puzzled.
"Don't pass on any more illness to the children. Ruanruan, are these all your children?" Old Madam Yang felt as if her eyes couldn't keep up.
I wanted to look at Ruan Ruan more, but I couldn't help but want to look at that baby, who looked exactly like Ruan Ruan when she was little.
It's God's pity on her; not only did He bring Ruan Ruan back, but He also brought back "Ruan Ruan from when she was little."
Aunt Chi nodded, but then hesitated to address the other person, so she could only mumble, "Yes, this is my youngest son, Chi Wuhu, and my youngest daughter, Chi Tang."
"Chi Tang? That's a beautiful name. Wu Hu... that's quite a unique name." Old Madam Yang held back for a long time before finally managing to refrain from saying the word "unpleasant."
The Chi family members immediately looked at Old Man Chi.
Who told Old Man Chi to give it this name?
Little Fifth Brother laughed heartlessly: "Who told you that my sister's name was given by my mother, while our names were all given by my father?"
"Oh, Chi Tang was named by Ruan Ruan? My daughter always has such beautiful names, so beautiful!" Old Madam Yang was overjoyed and kept praising her.
The praise made Aunt Chi a little embarrassed.
Old Master Yang instructed his maid to fetch a mahogany box, and then called over Aunt Chi: "Ruan Ruan, open it and take a look."
The old lady had kind eyes and a soft voice, as if she was worried about startling her daughter.
His eyes never left Aunt Chi.
Although Tangtang is more like "Ruan Ruan when she was little", the old lady cares most about her daughter.
Aunt Chi wanted to say that she wasn't her daughter, but seeing the old lady's expectant yet fearful eyes, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
She walked over and opened the mahogany box.
When the small mahogany box was opened, everyone was almost dazzled by the jewels inside!
Gold hairpins of all shapes and sizes!
Each one is extremely heavy!
It's also inlaid with gemstones of various colors!
"this……"
"These are all yours," the old lady said with a smile. "When you were little, you loved to grab my hairpins, so I promised you that I would make you the most gorgeous and beautiful hairpin every year on your birthday."
"Look, your mother didn't lie to you."
Madam Yang asked somewhat nervously, "Ruanruan, do you like it?"
Having been separated from her daughter for so long, she didn't even know if her daughter liked these things.
With tears in her eyes, Aunt Chi reached out and touched the hairpins, and couldn't help but say, "I... I have my own parents, I may not be your daughter."
Everyone's expression changed.
Madam Yang and Yang Zhi, in particular, were clenching their fists nervously, fearing that the old lady might not be able to withstand it.
Madam Yang was indeed stunned, staring blankly at Aunt Chi for a long while before she finally spoke in a trembling voice: "I feel that you are my Ruan Ruan."
