The Helan family in the capital.
When Helan Zhi was called back, he saw Old Madam Helan standing quietly under the corridor as soon as he entered the main courtyard. She and the plum tree with green leaves behind her formed a beautiful scene.
Back in the day, Ju Rongrong of the capital was such a remarkable and charismatic woman.
Whether it's her methods or her appearance, she's absolutely top-notch!
Later, she fell in love with the elegant and upright old man Helan. The two fell in love at first sight, which became a beautiful story at the time.
Unfortunately, due to certain events, Old Master Helan's health deteriorated, and he passed away before Old Madam Helan.
Later on, Madam Helan and the Helan family rose to become one of the top aristocratic families.
It has never fallen into ruin.
However, in the later generations that Sheng Qian knew, there was no trace of the Helan family.
Therefore, the Helan family may face a major calamity in the coming years.
It was a catastrophe that wiped out the entire clan!
"mom."
Helan Zhi walked to the side of Old Madam Helan.
Madam Helan turned and glanced at him. Her son was very much like her husband, both in his way of doing things and in his temperament.
"I'm back."
"Did you ask me to come back for something?"
"There is something," said Madam Helan, looking at the plum tree with green leaves in front of her. "My sister from my maternal family called me and said she wants to take the child's hair back to the capital for identification. You need to arrange it yourself."
"Appraisal?"
He Lanzhi was taken aback.
“My sister suspected from the beginning that Qianya was my granddaughter. I think this child looks a lot like her, so it wouldn’t be a bad thing to do a DNA test. If it’s confirmed that Qianya is indeed a child of our Helan family, then there will be something fishy about what happened back then.”
Old Madam Helan's eyes were cold and sharp, filled with anger towards the instigator from back then.
Helan Zhi hadn't thought about it that way before, but now that he heard Old Madam Helan mention paternity testing, he suddenly realized this possibility.
If Sheng Qian really is his daughter...
Helan Zhi trembled slightly, unable to describe his emotions.
“I’ll arrange for someone to meet up with people from Xuan City,” He Lanzhi also wanted to see if Sheng Qian was really his child.
"Make the arrangements more thorough, so that no one with ulterior motives will take notice."
“I know,” Helan Zhi said, not daring to be careless. He planned to have the tests done on both sides, just to be on the safe side.
Watching Helan Zhi's hurried departure, Old Madam Helan sighed softly, "I do wish that child were our own granddaughter. That child looks just like me when I was young. If you were still here, you would probably love her the most."
As she spoke, a smile, the kind of smile one would have only seen in a young girl, appeared on Madam Helan's face.

Sheng Qian walked around the coal mine with Long Yunting. Many people knew that Sheng Qian was the real boss behind the coal mine, and quite a few people also knew that she was married.
Even elders feel inexplicably intimidated when they see Long Yunting.
Good heavens, this man is not only handsome, but his aura is also something that makes people dare not underestimate him.
They are even more frightening than those officials.
That evening, Sheng Qian took Long Yunting and Zhang Hanyuan out for dinner.
Zhang Hanyuan used to be afraid of Long Yunting, but now that he's doing well and has seen so much of the world, he's become much more composed.
It looks quite imposing.
So when I sit across from Long Yunting for a meal, I'm no longer intimidated.
Long Yunting did not deliberately display his murderous aura.
So their relationship didn't have any major ups and downs.
"Thank you for handling the family affairs for Qianqian these past few days. You're a bit older, so I'll call you Brother Zhang from now on."
Zhang Hanyuan: "..."
He hadn't said a word, and people were already calling him "brother."
How was he supposed to respond?
Zhang Hanyuan knew perfectly well what kind of person Long Yunting was. Being called "brother" by such a scion of a prominent family was a bit strange and made him feel a little arrogant.
"I'll need your help again in the future, Brother Zhang."
"Young Master Long, you're too kind. I'm just working for Sheng Qian; it's all what I should do," Zhang Hanyuan said, knowing his place and not daring to act arrogantly.
"Brother Zhang, if you need anything in the future, you can come to me."
Long Yunting had already given him the number.
Zhang Hanyuan looked at Sheng Qian and saw that she was only eating and not talking, so he could only say, "I will definitely ask you for help if I need it."
In fact, he didn't think Long Yunting could be of any help.
Zhang Hanyuan finished his meal quickly and left, not wanting to sit there and watch the couple exchange glances.
It's so cloying!
"Brother Zhang is a nice guy," Sheng Qian said with a smile, commenting on Zhang Hanyuan.
"Yes, he's a responsible person."
"A-Ting, you don't seem very happy."
"No."
"Really not?"
"Um."
"You've been talking too little."
"Let's eat. Aren't we going back to Wutong Village tomorrow? Let's eat first and then we can get ready."
"What are you preparing?" Sheng Qian asked.
Long Yunting said, "Prepare gifts for returning to the village."
"There's no need to prepare anything special. I think my parents would prefer me to bring some money back home." They don't care about the gifts.
That being said, Long Yunting still needs to make preparations.
Although Long Yunting didn't like Sheng Li and Luo Minjuan very much.
After all, he had raised Sheng Qian for over a decade, so no matter what, he, as her son-in-law, had to show some appreciation.
"We still need to prepare some."
"Alright, then you can decide what to do."

The next day.
Saturday was just the time to wait for Sheng Guanhua to go back to the village together.
Sheng Guanhua left the school early in the morning and came to the flat-roofed house to call Sheng Qian.
Sheng Guanhua knew that Long Yunting had arrived, so he was prepared when he entered, but he was still a little intimidated when he saw Long Yunting inside.
His brother-in-law has such a powerful aura.
Everyone knows what kind of person he used to be, and they can sense the bloody aura emanating from him, so they wouldn't think he's the kind of person who hangs out in the world.
This is someone who has been to the battlefield!
Sheng Guanhua both respected and feared him.
"Brother-in-law!"
"Leaving school so early?" Sheng Qian and Long Yunting had just finished breakfast. "Have you had breakfast?"
"I've eaten," Sheng Guanhua had wanted to come out early to eat with Sheng Qian, but when he got here he remembered that his brother-in-law was also there.
When I saw him, I couldn't imagine having breakfast with him, so I chickened out.
It was obviously a lie. Sheng Qian pointed to the table: "I just saved one for you. Come in and have breakfast first, then we'll go home together."
“Okay,” Sheng Guanhua walked in, then glanced at Long Yunting who was going into the kitchen, “Sister, is brother-in-law coming home with us too?”
"We're going back together, why? Is there a problem?"
"No..." I just find it very strange.
It's good to have my brother-in-law accompany me back. If anything happens, he'll keep things under control, and no one will cause trouble.
After washing the dishes, Long Yunting went to check the list and retrieve the gifts from Wutong Village.
On his first visit as a son-in-law, Long Yunting wasn't nervous, but rather filled with a strange sense of anticipation.
Although they had met before, this was the first time they had gone back to Wutong Village together.
It's inevitable that there will be expectations.
It's like a righteous declaration.
This was to declare that Sheng Qian was Long Yunting's wife!
