"Luo Luo, you are the only female heir in these six generations. Before this, the Yan family was envied by others and cursed so that the Yan family would not have any more female heirs in the future."
Later, in your father's generation, we were fortunate enough to find a master who could break the curse and buried the magic pouch to lift it.
The master said that the brocade pouch could be taken out after a female offspring was born. In fact, the master had predicted before that if a girl was born, she would encounter misfortune and suffer hardships.
If we can pull through, things will go smoothly.
At first, we didn't believe it because Ranran was perfectly fine at the time, and we never knew that she wasn't a biological child of the Yan family.
Only now do I realize that the master had foreseen everything, yet my precious Luo Luo still suffered hardship...
The master also said that from now on, the Yan family will no longer have to worry about not having female heirs; every generation will have female heirs, and Luoluo is our family's lucky star.
Yan Zhiguo finished speaking and burst into tears. He knew all the misfortunes his beloved granddaughter had suffered...
It was only when Yan Youting let slip to Li Shuwen one day that he learned that Yan Xiluo had been being hunted down.
"Then Aunt... isn't Aunt a child of the Yan family?"
Yan Xiluo couldn't believe it; Yan Chuxiao and Liao Yufang looked remarkably alike... especially alike.
"Xiao Xiao is my grandmother's older sister's child. My grandmother's older sister suffered a severe hemorrhage during the delivery of my aunt and died."
“Your aunt’s father was a soldier who died in the line of duty, so your grandfather and I took your aunt home and raised her as our own daughter.”
Liao Yufang's eyes welled up with tears as she spoke. At that time, her sister Liao Yufen had not yet given birth when her husband sacrificed his life on the front lines.
Later, Liao Yufen suffered a severe hemorrhage during childbirth and could not be saved. Apart from Liao Yufen, she had no other relatives to raise her child.
My sister's husband's parents have long since passed away, and my own parents are quite old.
Neither she nor Yan Zhiguo had the heart to tell Yan Chuxiao that she wasn't their child.
It was when a relative came to visit and happened to talk about Yan Chuxiao, asking about her situation and mentioning her parents that Yan Chuxiao unintentionally learned about it.
Yan Xiluo also shed tears, and Li Shuwen was also learning for the first time that her sister-in-law was not her parents-in-law's biological daughter.
It's clear that her in-laws genuinely treated her like their own daughter, even more so than they doted on Yan Chuxiao.
"I never imagined my aunt's background was like this."
So what? Isn't she her own aunt?
My aunt is incredibly kind to me.
"Okay, silly child, don't be sad, everything is getting better."
Liao Yufang comforted her granddaughter first, though she was actually in more pain than anyone else; that was her own sister.
Every time I see Yan Chuxiao, I think of my older sister, who was so young and beautiful...
There were so many things the sisters didn't do, so many things they didn't say.
"Now that Luo Luo is back, the position of head of the Yan family will be handed over to you."
The old custom was that after a daughter was engaged, the ring would be handed to her.
The engagement back then was similar to the engagement today; it was originally a ceremony where the betrothal was handed over to you in person on the Mid-Autumn Festival.
It won't make a difference if you stay a few more days. Didn't you say you were looking for treasure? You are free to enter and exit the secret room.
I'll have your father go get that ring in a bit. That ring symbolizes your status as the head of the Yan family.
At the same time, the ring is also the key to opening the door to the secret room.
"From now on, the Yan family is in your hands, and the secret chamber is also yours. You can distribute its contents as you see fit."
Yan Zhiguo spoke earnestly, saying that this day had finally come, and he hoped that the spirits of the Yan family's ancestors in heaven could see it.
They finally broke the curse and welcomed the female leader.
Yan Xiluo suddenly understood something, and her doubts were resolved.
Presumably, this is the ring that the Su family wants!
This ring symbolizes wealth and power; it is the most important treasure of the Yan family!
The mystery here is solved, but what about the people behind the Su family?
What deep-seated grudge does he have against that person...?
He was certain that the person behind the Su family was Yu, but who was Yu?
This question remains unanswered for now.
After receiving the answer, she was unsure whether she should tell her family about it.
The Su family has an inseparable close relationship with Yan Chuxiao, and is related to the Yan family by marriage.
Or perhaps if you tell your family about this, they might be able to deduce who's behind it?
"Grandpa and Grandma, Dad and Mom."
"Actually, I came back today because I have something important to tell everyone."
"Before this, I didn't have a standard answer to this matter at all. After hearing what my grandparents said, my doubts have been resolved, but there are still some other things I need to ask you."
Yan Xiluo was very serious; this matter was of great importance and could not be taken lightly.
"Luo Luo, just tell us everything you know."
Seeing his granddaughter so serious, Yan Zhiguo had a bad feeling.
"This is what happened..."
Yan Xiluo planned to explain the whole story from the beginning so that everyone wouldn't be confused. After all, her family would eventually find out anyway, so there was no need to hide it.
"What? Someone paid an assassin to get rid of you!"
Li Shuwen felt her blood pressure rise instantly; her precious daughter was her life.
She was finally found, and now someone has hired an assassin to kill her.
There were already people hunting her down, and those people haven't been dealt with or caught yet.
Another assassin...
The thought of this made her tears flow uncontrollably.
Everyone else's hearts were also clenched, waiting for Yan Xiluo to finish speaking.
"Mom, don't get excited, I haven't finished yet."
"And the assassin he hired was me. You all know that my master is Gui Chi, but I am actually his last disciple, Gui Mei..."
"So I want to take this opportunity to expose the people behind this, so I need your cooperation."
"This time the cooperation is different from the last time. There will be no danger this time, so don't worry."
"There's another thing I'd like to ask you..."
Yan Xiluo continued speaking, and everyone's emotions were like a rollercoaster, but they all tried their best to control themselves and stay calm.
Let Yan Xiluo finish speaking.
"Luo Luo, are you saying that the Su family wants the ring from the Yan family patriarch? And they want the Yan family's power and wealth?"
None of the four could quite accept it; they never imagined it was the Su family.
But Yan Xiluo said that the IP address came from the Su family.
Yan Xiluo is the top hacker in the Chinese server, how could she make a mistake? But they found this result hard to accept.
Liao Yufang, in particular, felt that Yan Chuxiao was in danger, like he was in a tiger's den.
If that person wants something from the Yan family and doesn't get it, will he take Yan Chuxiao hostage?
Liao Yufang could no longer control her emotions; this was her sister and brother-in-law's only remaining daughter in the world.
