Chapter 243 Song Yu sees Gu Jinyan
All the guests were shocked when they saw this.
The old lady of the Du family seemed to be in high spirits, as if she was celebrating a happy event. It was obvious that she loved the daughter she found very much.
As expected, Du Ye sat down at the main seat and began to speak with a smile, "Thank you all for coming to my sister Yu's family's family recognition banquet. I never expected that the daughter of Boss Jiang's daughter would be my eldest granddaughter. If Sister Yu hadn't come to see me ten days ago and accidentally knocked off her mask, I'm afraid we wouldn't have known she was my granddaughter until the end of time. Boss Jiang, did you all know this all along and let Sister Yu wear the mask because you didn't want us to recognize her?"
Jiang Youya frowned, "If I had known earlier, I would have hidden Sister Yu. I don't want Sister Yu to recognize me. I have a big granddaughter, and you told me that Sister Yu is your granddaughter before she even warms up to me. Who can I go to for justice? I don't care. You have to compensate me with a big granddaughter."
All the guests laughed.
"Old Jiang." Du Ye said with a smile: "My sister Yu has recognized you. She is also your eldest granddaughter. Our Du and Jiang families are one family."
"Yes, we are a family." Du Henian said, "Sister Yu is a filial child and will definitely be filial to you."
Upon seeing this, Prince Cheng Tong suddenly felt sorry for Old Jiang.
Jiang Yunwan has no children of her own, and Old Jiang must be feeling very miserable.
She couldn't wait to see Jiang Yunwan's current situation, so she said, "Old Madam, I heard that your precious granddaughter has a beauty mole on the corner of her eye, just like the Marquis's. Has she arrived? We can't wait to see her."
"The auspicious hour is still half an hour away. You will see it soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chengqian came forward with a brocade box, "Madam, this is the return gift that our Prince Rong's Mansion prepared for Miss Song."
"Madam." Mu Jingxing also stepped forward quickly and handed over the brocade box in his hand, "This is the return gift from our Anguo Mansion to Miss Song."
Tong reached for the box beside her, but Prince Cheng snatched it up first and handed it to Du Ye. "Madam, this is a homecoming gift from our Prince Cheng Mansion to Sister Yu. Please accept it."
"Thank you, King Cheng. I will accept it on behalf of Sister Yu."
A group of officials presented Song Yu with return gifts one after another.
"Grandma, we..." Cheng Qingya tugged at Old Madam Cheng's sleeve.
They came with no preparation at all.
This time it's really embarrassing.
Old Madam Cheng quickly asked Nanny Niu to find an empty box, and when no one was paying attention, she stuffed a hairpin on her head into the box and handed it over.
Fortunately, she was wearing the jade rabbit hairpin that Jiang Yunshu had given her as a gift.
This was Jiang Yunshu's dowry, and now she had to give it up with great reluctance.
"Madam, the eldest lady is here."
Everyone turned their heads to look, and Jiang Yunwan and Su Beiqing appeared in everyone's sight, protecting Song Yu on the left and right.
There was an expression of disbelief in everyone's eyes.
The girl in front of him looked so much like the Marquis' wife, especially the dazzling and beautiful beauty mole which was exactly the same as the Marquis' wife's. She also inherited the pair of Buddha ears from Marquis Du.
Du Zhixu didn't see Du Zhihuan, so he turned around and went to look at Fanghua.
Mu Jingxing looked at Song Yu with a flash of surprise in his eyes. Today, Miss Song looked like a fairy on earth.
Mu Jingxing thought of something and turned his head to look at Xiao Chengqian.
His ears turned red and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
Seeing this, Mu Jingxing's expression returned to its usual glacial state, and he became annoyed again.
Mu Chuqing's half-smile suddenly appeared in front of him, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Xiao Chengqian tilted his head and looked over at the sound, "Cousin, what's wrong?"
"Oh, I'm just a little hungry."
Xiao Chengqian said, "It's almost time. Sister Yu has completed the recognition process and we can start the feast."
Sister Yu?
Mu Jingxing became more and more irritated.
"Oh, I'll wait a little longer then."
Mu Chuqing stood with her hands behind her back, staring at Mu Jingxing intently. Sister Yu was dressed so beautifully today, she didn't believe that her brother wouldn't take a few more glances.
Mu Jingxing didn't even dare to look at the stage.
"Turn around and look ahead." Mu Jingxing stroked Mu Chuqing's shoulders and pulled her over.
This is just a younger sister. If it were a younger brother, he would just slap her.
On the stage, Song Yu went through the recognition process under the auspices of the elders of the Du family, and then served tea to Du Ye, Du Henian, and Su Beiqing in turn.
Then he served tea to Mr. Jiang, Song Mingen and Jiang Yunwan in front of everyone.
When Jiang Yunwan took the teacup, her eyes inadvertently caught the gaze of King Cheng. Jiang Yunwan pretended not to see it, lowered her eyes and drank the tea in her hand.
King Cheng looked at Jiang Yunwan, who was even more elegant than she was fifteen years ago. His ears turned red secretly and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on his brows.
Seeing this, Tong was so angry that she gritted her teeth, "Bitch, you only know how to seduce men!"
She originally thought that since Jiang Yunwan married a commoner, no matter how good the man was to her, fifteen years away from home would wear away her pride.
But unexpectedly, she is still so radiant and as imposing as ever!
Princess Leyang reached out and held Tong's hand, "Mother, are you feeling unwell?"
"Oh, no, it's just too unexpected. Song Yu really looks like the Marquis's wife."
Princess Leyang glanced at King Cheng, then followed his gaze to look at Jiang Yunwan, her eyes dark and unclear. This was the person her father had always kept in his heart.
"Everyone." Du Ye stood up and took Song Yu's hand and said to everyone, "From now on, Sister Yu is the eldest daughter of our Du family."
"Madam Du, why don't I see Huanhuan? Is Huanhuan leaving the Du Mansion now that Miss Song has returned?"
Song Yu looked in the direction of the sound and his eyes suddenly widened.
Some people couldn't believe that the person in front of her was the young lady of the Gu family whom she had tried to save as a last resort!
Oh my god!
Could she be Du Zhihuan’s good sister?
Gu Jinxuan looked at Song Yu with a thoughtful look.
"Miss Gu, Huanhuan is still the daughter of our Du family."
Gu Jinyan said, "Miss Song is now the eldest daughter of the Du family, and Huanhuan is the second daughter of the Du family?"
Du Ye nodded, "Huanhuan is my Du family's adopted daughter, so she is naturally the second young lady of the Du family."
"Madam Du," Princess Leyang spoke up. "Today is the day the eldest daughter of the Du family returns home. How could Huanhuan, as the second daughter of the Du family, not be in attendance? Or has she been sent away by you and is no longer at the mansion?"
Everyone had different thoughts when they heard this. Could it be that the Du family really sent Du Zhihuan away?
Du Henian said hurriedly, "How could that be? Huanhuan was feeling a little unwell this morning and will be here soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Zhixu's voice came over, "Dad, Huanhuan is here."
A moment later, Du Zhihuan, looking slightly pale, came into the banquet hall.
Du Henian, Su Beiqing moved towards Du Zhihuan upon seeing this, but quickly stopped.
Gu Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, thinking that Huanhuan had really been sent away.
"Grandma, Daddy, Mommy, Sister, I'm late."
Seeing that he was indeed feeling unwell, Du Ye said, "Hanhan, please sit down and rest."
"It's Grandmother."
As soon as Du Zhihuan sat down, she looked at Xiao Chengqian, and worry flashed in Xiao Chengqian's eyes.
Is Huanhuan feeling upset, or is she really not feeling well?
Du Zhihuan quickly withdrew her gaze and sat quietly.
Everyone saw that her every frown and smile was still that of a Du family member, and no one would doubt that she was not a Du family member.
Now that Song Yu was present, everyone had to look at her facial features again.
At first glance, they really don't look like Du Henian and Su Beiqing.
"Brother Henian." Xinyang Marquis Han Shouyi looked at Du Henian with curiosity. "What happened back then? How did your biological daughter end up being adopted by Madam Song? And whose daughter is Second Miss Du?"
