Sun Yunhua had countless questions in his mind, but when he followed Sun Wen all the way back to the yard, he didn't dare to ask too many questions, for fear of being overheard.
After finally returning to the courtyard, he grabbed Sun Wen and said, "Uncle! What exactly did you mean by that? What did you mean by Duan Qingxi being my aunt's child? And whose child is Duan Shishi?"
Duan Sijin, who was about to come in from the outside of the yard, suddenly stopped and his face became solemn after hearing Sun Yunhua's words.
There was no one in the yard at the moment, and Sun Wen felt there was no need to hide it from Sun Yunhua anymore, so he said, "Don't you think Xi'er looks a lot like your aunt?"
Hearing this, Sun Yunhua scratched his head a little embarrassedly. "Although... although there is often a portrait of my aunt hanging in my grandmother's room, the portrait is still quite different from the person. Besides, I don't usually stare at my aunt's portrait for no reason. How can I know if it looks like her?"
Hearing this, Sun Wen remembered that Sun Yunhua had rarely seen Sun Jingjing, and the few times they met, she was still very young. No wonder he had no doubts in his heart.
He explained, "Xi'er looks a bit like your aunt when she was young, especially in terms of personality. She's exactly like your aunt. I started to doubt her when I first saw her, but after testing her a little, I found out it was true!"
Sun Yunhua was still confused and didn't quite understand. He asked, "But if... if Xi'er is my aunt's child, then why did she become the second wife's child? Moreover, Xi'er has lived in this general's mansion for so long, why didn't my uncle find out?"
Sun Wen narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and said, "That depends on what tactics the Second Madam used before she died! Your uncle is a fool. If he had believed that Xi'er was the Second Madam's child back then, he would probably have ignored her and left her to fend for herself in the mansion. But people in this world always like to flatter the weak and bully the weak. I'm afraid Xi'er has suffered a lot of injustice..."
Sun Yunhua said, "So, this is why cousin Xi'er doesn't want to acknowledge us?"
Sun Yat-sen was choked by the question and was speechless.
Yes, maybe Duan Qingxi was unwilling to recognize them because he had suffered too much injustice.
But it doesn't matter, she is still young, the Sun family will do everything they can to make it up to her and seek her forgiveness...
"Don't make this public yet. We still don't know what will happen. Besides, Duan Shishi is the Ninth Prince's wife-to-be. You and I both need to keep a low profile. Do you understand?"
Sun Yunhua was so overwhelmed by this incident that his head felt a little dizzy. When he thought about how he had bullied Duan Qingxi for Duan Shishi, he felt panic in his heart. How could he have the mind to cause trouble for Duan Shishi?
He finally understood why he felt so guilty whenever he met Duan Qingxi's eyes.
The Sun family has always been protective of their own shortcomings, but he helped outsiders bully his own cousin. Doesn't he feel guilty?!
When Sun Wen was about to return to his room, he took two steps forward, but suddenly frowned, looked towards the gate, and shouted: "Who?!"
Sun Yunhua also became nervous and put his hands on the scabbard.
As a result, the person who came out was Duan Sijin!
"Xiao Jin? Why are you here?"
Duan Sijin did not answer Sun Wen's words. Instead, he walked up to him and asked with a stern face, "Uncle, is what you just said true?"
Sun Yat-sen didn't expect that he had heard everything and didn't know what to say for a moment.
His behavior clearly showed his consent.
