"Kaiyang, do you know why I didn't take you out for a stroll today, but instead we went fishing here? And it's just the two of us?" Hong Xiaoduo felt that the groundwork had been laid.
I can't keep dawdling; I have to say it eventually.
"I don't know, but there must be a reason why you arranged it this way." Kaiyang said, noticing bubbles around the fishing line, his eyes widened.
The feather float sank slightly, indicating a fish had taken the bait. Kaiyang excitedly lifted the fishing rod, but the fish was quite large, making the rod feel heavy.
"Because I've come to realize something, and I've decided to tell you that you actually have a family. You are Tong'er, the grandson of Lord Wei, and the son of the young mistress."
"This is your home." Hong Xiaoduo took a deep breath and said it all in one breath.
Although Kaiyang was very excited as he picked up the fishing rod, he was still listening to her, so he heard everything she said clearly.
He couldn't help but look at her again: "How could I be Tong'er? Their Tong'er isn't me."
He was somewhat puzzled. Although the woman in front of him usually liked to make jokes, she didn't seem to be joking with him just now, and she would never make such a joke with him.
"That was a lie, a conspiracy by someone with ulterior motives. When I heard her mentioning Tong'er in Tanmu Town, I remembered what your grandfather had said before. After asking around, I learned that she was Lord Wei's daughter-in-law, so I conducted an examination and found out that you and that young mistress are mother and son.

Also, we originally brought your brother and the others to the capital, but during a rest stop along the way, we met the two guards from the Wei family, and we all heard them say that Tong'er had been found and was already in the mansion.
That's why I changed my mind at the last minute and decided to only take you to the capital.
Because I'm not sure whether the Tong'er they've found is a misunderstanding or someone else's conspiracy.
"Kaiyang, you know I wouldn't joke about something like this." Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking in one breath, focusing on the key points, and looked at Kaiyang, unsure of his reaction.
She probably won't throw a tantrum and say she lied to him, right?
Kaiyang stared blankly at Hong Xiaoduo. Was he Tong'er? Was his grandfather his biological father? Was the woman who hugged him in the street his biological mother?
I was distracted for a moment, and the fish that had taken the bait struggled and swam away, dragging the fishing rod with it...
