Can't be surnamed Wen anymore

  Her eyes turned red, and she pinched the old woman to death with all her might.

  Just then, a "ding" sound came from the door, and the caregiver found by Wen Shixuan walked back in. Seeing Xu Yu'e standing behind her, doing something at the old man's bedside, she asked suspiciously: "Mrs. Wen?"

  Xu Yujiao was startled and woke up, she hadn't even had time to catch her breath, first moving the pillow to one side and patting it: "I think the pillow you used as a bolster for her is a bit dirty, take it out and wash it."

  "Is it a bit dirty?" As soon as she heard the words, it sounded like blaming herself for not doing her job well. The approaching caregiver took over Xu Yujiao's pillow and looked left and right, "Not dirty."

  Turning back to look, he saw that Xu Yu'e had already hastily walked out of the ward.

  Nobody knew what was going on, the nurse who was helping the old man tidy up his quilt was full of doubts. When she saw that the old man's face was bright red, as if he had just been holding his breath for a long time, she was startled and quickly went to call the doctor over.

  Xu Yuye, who didn't strangle the old woman to death in a fit of rage, was on one hand relieved that she hadn't committed murder, and on the other hand, her heart truly wished the old witch would drop dead.

  Back home, I didn't say a word to my husband or little daughter.

  What was she supposed to say? That he almost choked the old lady to death?

  Regarding Yu'e's unusual silence, Wen Shixuan and Wen Huan had different thoughts. Wen Shixuan was delighted that his wife would be quiet and not come back to bother him every day, so he didn't care what happened.

  Wen Yuande was different, her eyes rolled around in circles a few times, and after Wen Shixuan left, she followed Xu Yuer into the house.

  "Mom, what's wrong with you? Did you get bullied outside? Were you wronged? I haven't heard you speak all day." He wrapped his arms around Xu Yu'e's hands, seemingly concerned and asking about her well-being.

  Still little daughter is considerate, but Xu Yu'e's secret in her heart can't be spoken: she just almost committed murder.

  Her strange eyes rolled around in a circle again, and Wen Xuan pretended to be obedient and nodded: "If mom is fine, I'll leave first."

  Xu Yu'e sat alone in her room for a while before she couldn't sit still anymore.

  Apart from the old lady losing her eldest daughter, she heard everything else. Her eldest daughter didn't actually die and had made a name for herself, being adopted by a very wealthy family. Coincidentally, it was Mianmian's sister-in-law. As for this Jin family, last time, Zhang Qiuyan had boasted about them, saying they were some kind of famous high-ranking officials.

  She quarreled with Manman, but Manman was not her own child. She couldn't count on Manman anymore. Let's hope for this eldest daughter instead. After all, she is her own flesh and blood. As long as the whole story is told clearly, it's that old woman's fault.

  After all, she is her biological mother, and it's impossible for the eldest daughter not to recognize her.

  What was the eldest daughter called again?

  Leaning against his forehead for a while, he still couldn't think clearly and didn't know how to go find him.

  She had to call her little daughter back to help her come up with a plan, but she couldn't tell her the whole truth, so she just said: I want to talk to Mianmian's sister-in-law about something and get some advice.

  As soon as her mother said this, Wen Huan immediately understood: her mother had found out the truth from somewhere.

  She can't wait for her mother to go and make trouble for Jin Meichen.

  Smiling: Mom, it's not easy, asking Erniang for that person's address and going straight to their doorstep.

  Xu Yu'e hastily asked: What's the excuse? You just go to their doorstep without any warning, will they see you or not?

  "Mom, don't say you came looking for her yourself. Say that Manman had something and asked you to come find her. She and Manman are sisters-in-law, it's impossible she wouldn't see you." Wen Huan said.

  The little girl is really clever.

  Xu Yujiao found a perfect excuse and slept soundly, preparing to go to their house early the next morning to cause trouble.

  ……

  Jin Meichen did not return to her husband's home after being driven out by her father, but instead checked into a hotel. With the money in her card dwindling without support from her parents and husband, she was getting tighter and tighter every day, and couldn't go on like this.

  Jin's family is in a difficult situation, she wants to go back but has to think of a way. After thinking about it, she must get her husband involved.

  And now Manman knows about her, who knows when she'll expose her secret, just thinking about it is terrifying, better to discuss with husband first.

  She pulled her suitcase out of the hotel and returned to her husband's home that night.

  Jiang Fei had a few drinks with someone outside tonight, his face was slightly red, and he was slightly drunk. When he heard the doorbell, his footsteps were a bit unsteady as he opened the door. Seeing his wife standing at the door, he smiled drunkenly: "What? You're willing to come back? Or were you driven back by your parents? My place may be poorer than your parents', but it's still where you want to come back to, right?"

  Would she have wanted to come back if circumstances hadn't taken a one hundred and eighty degree turn?

  Looking at Jiang Fei in front of him, who already had a bit of a beer belly, the young and handsome Jiang Fei from years ago, gradually lost his figure.

  She liked this man back then, just because he was handsome enough. However, as he kept getting promoted by relying on her father's influence, his figure gradually became out of shape. If she had foreseen this day earlier, she would have definitely not wanted to marry such a man.

  So, the divorce she and Jin's father proposed that day was not an impulsive thing.

  "What? Not coming in? Not even talking? Still want to make trouble?" Jiang Fei, leaning against the door frame and looking at her, gradually became impatient, with a look of displeasure on his face. "If you want to make trouble, I don't have the energy to deal with you, go somewhere else."

  She has nowhere else to go.

  There must be Jiang Fei.

  Enduring it, he walked in with a low profile: "I have something to say to you."

  Jiang Fei walked over with the door closed behind him, stretching out his hands to hug her, but she pushed him away with one hand and said angrily: "Aren't you back to make amends? What's your attitude now?"

  "We are now like a city wall on the verge of collapse, and you still have the heart to talk about this?" As she spoke, she sat down with a belly full of grievances, tears dripping down like rain.

  Jiang Fei, who was startled by her appearance, stopped his hands and softened his voice: "Have you been wronged by someone somewhere during this time?"

  She has suffered a lot of grievances. Now anyone can make her angry. However, these things cannot be spoken directly.

  "I, actually, Ah Fei, I was framed. Don't know who told my dad and mom that I'm not their biological child. So I was kicked out by my dad and mom."

  "Is there such a thing?" Jiang Fei listened, not taking it seriously, feeling like he was listening to a joke. He said with a mouthful of laughter, "Whether or not it's the real deal, can't you just do a paternity test and find out?"

  Her husband had absolutely no idea that she might not be the daughter of the Jin family, because he had married her precisely because she was a daughter of the Jin family.

  Lowering his head, he said in a low and melancholic tone: "Indeed, it's not biological."

  Jiang Fei stared blankly for several times and still couldn't hear her words: "What did you say?"

  Take a deep breath, explode, get up and roar at him: "I said we're done. I'm not the daughter of the Jin family, you didn't marry a high-ranking official's daughter, from now on you don't have to worry about getting promoted or making a fortune, your parents and others won't look at you and me with different eyes anymore!"

  Jiang Fei, who was splashed with saliva all over his face by her, seemed to be a village hit by a storm, with water overflowing the Jinshan Mountains, like a giant tree struck by lightning, his soul was torn in two.

  Seeing his shocked and unbearable expression, Jin Meichen took a deep breath, wasn't she the most wronged one? She turned around, her face covered in tears, and ran into the room. Bang, she closed the door, leaned against it, and clenched her fists: She couldn't, couldn't give up like this, couldn't become the daughter of a grocery store owner!

  It was early in the morning of the next day, I didn't sleep all night, got up and went to the living room, it seemed that my husband had gone out for a night.

  Will Jiang Fei abandon her just like this?

  My head is dizzy, I drank a glass of water and picked up my bag ready to go out.

  As I walked to the entrance of the barracks, I suddenly saw the woman who was pointed out by Wen Huan that day, the owner of the grocery store, Mrs. Xu Yu'e, standing on tiptoes and peeking inside through the railing at the entrance of the courtyard.

  Quickly covering her face with her bag, but Yu'e had already seen her.

  "Mei Chen, Mei Chen——!" Xu Yu'e excitedly shouted out loud to her, waving her hand.

  Lose face!

  This is not just a little loss of face.

  She couldn't imagine how days like this were spent in a tangled mess.

  Just as she was about to flee, the soldiers of the guard unit stopped her and asked: "Do you know that person? That person says they know you."

  "I don't know!" The three words roared out.

  Xu Yujiao, who heard this, was so anxious that she leaned forward as if she were Liu Xiang jumping over hurdles, and shouted loudly: "Meichen, I am your mother!"

  In the morning, it was the time when all the ladies were rushing to attend early meetings or go to the market. Xu Yujiao's passionate declaration in front of everyone spread throughout the entire military district among people who loved gossip within half a day.

  Recently, Jiang Mu was caught by her husband for not attending the early meeting of the ladies' group and had been staying at home to cultivate herself. Every day, she would lazily sit on the sofa, either watching TV or reading newspapers. When Wang Feng called her with an urgent phone call about Xu Yu'e's incident, she was staring at the newspaper with her old glasses falling directly from the bridge of her nose, and in her panic, she stepped on them, shattering them into eight pieces.

  "Did you hear it wrong?" This was everyone's first reaction, just like Jiang Mu's mother.

  "I also hope I misheard." Wang Feng sighed on her behalf, with a hint of schadenfreude in his heart. "However, it's said that hundreds of people at the scene heard it too. Not one of them said they misheard."

  "Could it be, could it be that she is not Manman's mother?" Jiang Mu was completely bewildered and had no idea what to do.

  She despised the mother of that little daughter-in-law, but in the end she became the mother of her most beloved eldest daughter-in-law?

  "This is indeed quite strange, are you saying both of your sons' wives were born by that woman?"

  Wang Feng's words made Jiang Mu completely collapse.

  She dislikes Manman, one of the reasons is that Xu Yuer originally made a scene at the gate of the mansion and lost her face.

  Whoever, such an unbearable relative, can't take it anymore.

  On the contrary, Jin Mei Chen's mother, Mrs. Jin, was a high-ranking official's wife, an intelligent and knowledgeable woman who surpassed Xu Yu'e in several lifetimes.

  "It won't work, I have to go ask." Jiang's mother said anxiously while hurriedly putting on her shoes.

  "Who do you want to ask?" Wang Feng was curious about who she could go ask at this time.

  Who else could she have asked?

  Ask the person involved, is the person willing to tell her the truth?

  "But we have to ask someone clearly." Jiang's mother said this and asked Wang Feng for advice.

  "I think it's better for you not to take the initiative. They always need to come to you first to explain things clearly, so just wait for them to come to you and confess on their own. That way, you're not being passive, but rather taking control."

  Jiang's mother sat down again, thinking that Wang Feng's words made sense.

  This wait lasted until nightfall, but no one came to apologize. Mrs. Jiang couldn't sit still again and decided to go to her second daughter's home to investigate the situation.

  In recent days, after Jiang's father and mother had a falling out, they both went to their second daughter's home to eat. Although the second daughter's cooking wasn't very good, it was better than facing Jiang's mother at home.

  Hearing the doorbell ring, Jiang Mei opened the door for her mother, Jiang Mu.

  At home, Mr. Jiang was helping Xiao Dong with his homework.

  Jiang's mother saw that the small glasses that Xiao Dongzi usually wore on the bridge of his nose were gone, revealing a pair of beautiful and shiny black eyes, and she was shocked and delighted: "What's going on?"

  "It's all thanks to Mianmian." Jiang Mei would never forget Mianmian's kindness, and she couldn't help but praise her enthusiastically. "It was Mianmian who helped arrange for Professor Lu to come forward and assist us in finding an excellent eye specialist who had returned from studying abroad. After examining Xiaodong, the doctor determined that his weak eyesight wasn't caused by ordinary factors, and now with medication, he no longer needs to wear glasses."

  It was Manman's doing, and Jiang Mu's surprise at her little grandson's eyes was instantly doused with cold water. She thought to herself: You say Manman is really strange, how can she get close to the most difficult-to-approach Lu family?

  "A Mei, have you heard about what happened at your sister-in-law's place today?" Jiang Mu couldn't bear it anymore and directly cut to the topic.

  Such a big deal, how could Jiang Mei not have heard about it. In the afternoon at work, all colleagues came to her and asked for the truth. Which of her family members was Xu Yuye's daughter. But Jiang Mei didn't want to comment casually. Although she didn't like Jin Meichen, it didn't mean she was a person who liked to kick others when they were down.

  "Mom, I don't know anything." Jiang Mei replied.

  "How could you possibly not know?!" She was too anxious, so anxious that Jiang Mu yelled at her second daughter with a loud voice.

  Jiang's father and Xiaodong, who were lying on the living room table flipping through their homework, heard Jiang's mother's unusual tone and furrowed their brows.

  Patting his little grandson's head gently, Jiang Father sternly turned to Jiang Mother: "What's wrong with you yelling at A Mei? Go back home."

  "What's going on? Something big happened at home and you're ignoring it? Are you not a human being?" Jiang's mother immediately walked over to reason with Jiang's father, today she had to get to the bottom of this.

  "What do you want to do?" Jiang's father stared at her, staring at her backbone.

  Chiang's father stared at him with his eyes, and Chiang's mother said weakly: "Let Mianmian come over and ask clearly about this matter."

  "Why ask Auntie? Is Grandma going to scold Auntie?" Little Dongzi jumped off the stool before anyone else, staring at Jiang Mu with his two shiny black eyes.

  His eyes were saved by his aunt, and whoever dares to bully him will have to deal with her.

  Upon hearing this, Jiang's father suddenly stood up: "What do you want to do to Manman?"

  Jiang Mu sincerely couldn't understand: Why are all these people standing by Manman's side?

  "What can I possibly do to Mengmeng?" Jiang Mu smiled dryly, "It's just that this matter involves her maternal family, but we can't directly ask Meichen herself, right? Isn't asking Mengmeng the best option?"

  "Mei Chen herself doesn't even want to talk about it. And what's the point of knowing these things?" Jiang Mu thought she was being unreasonable and didn't approve.

  "Mei Chen is in this situation now, how can she come to talk about it?" Jiang Mu continued to dryly laugh and said, "I think knowing these things isn't for myself, but to understand the whole thing, so we can also comfort Mei Chen. Don't you like Mei Chen? Not even acknowledging her as your daughter-in-law's identity?"

  Jiang's father and Jiang Mei were not people who would go to such extremes.

  Xiao Dongzi saw that his grandfather and mother were confused by Grandma's few words, so he ran back to his room in a huff, slammed the door shut, and wanted to call his aunt to spread the news first.

  Manman was cooking soup at home, answering Xiaodong's call on the landline while also receiving a call from Jiangmei on her mobile phone, asking her to come over and discuss something.

  After hanging up the phone, she picked up her glasses and pondered for a moment. She went back to the kitchen to extinguish the stove fire, took off the apron tied around her waist, changed into another set of clothes, and then headed to Jiang Mei's home.

  Mangmang walked to Jiang Mei's house, normally it would take ten or twenty minutes. Mangmang deliberately tested Jiang's mother and dragged her feet for half an hour before arriving.

  Seeing her late arrival, Jiang Mu, who had been holding back for a long time, spoke harshly as soon as she saw her: "You took so long to walk such a short distance? Didn't you see that your father-in-law and second sister are waiting for you?"

  Jiang's father and Jiang Mei did not want to be represented by Jiang's mother anymore. Upon hearing this, Qi's face stiffened.

  She glared at Jiang Mu, and Jiang Fu said to Xiaoye's wife, pointing to the chair: "Mianmian, you sit down. A Mei, give Mianmian a glass of water. It must be tiring to walk such a long way in this hot weather."

  "Dad." Manman felt a bit embarrassed by Jiang's father's intentional politeness, and said, "Second sister, you don't have to bother. I just drank a big cup of water when I went out, not thirsty at all."

  The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a moment. After Manman sat down, she asked her father gently: "Dad, Second Sister said there's something to discuss, what is it?"

  Jiang's father and Jiang Mei exchanged a glance, clearing their throats softly, both finding it hard to speak.

  Jiang's mother, who couldn't wait any longer, chimed in from the side: "They want to ask you, today your sister-in-law's family had such a big incident, you must have heard about it, why don't you tell them what happened?"

  "What's going on at your house, Big Sister?" asked Manman with a dull gaze towards Jiang Mu.

  "I don't know if it's true or not? I must expose you. Jiang Mu was furious: "You haven't heard that there is no relationship. Now, I will tell you the whole story of what happened. Your mother, that woman named Xu Yu'e, went to your eldest sister's army compound gate this morning and said that your eldest sister was her daughter. The whole military district knows about it now. What's wrong with your mother? Not recognizing her own daughter, but instead recognizing someone else's daughter as her own, is she crazy or stupid? And you, this daughter of hers, are acting as if nothing has happened, can you still be called a daughter?"

  Jiang's mother made this unreasonable accusation, making Jiang's father so angry that he wanted to jump up and scold her. But unexpectedly, Manman calmly smiled at Jiang's father and said: "Dad, you sit down. I'm the one who asked these questions, I have a clear conscience, let me explain myself."

  Jiang's father sat back down, seeing his daughter-in-law's composed demeanor.

  "Go ahead, what excuses do you have to make, speak up." Jiang Mu put on an air, waiting to see how Manman would defend herself.

  Manman adjusted her glasses and said, "You just said one thing that's right. I'm not her daughter, I've cut off my mother-daughter relationship with her a long time ago."

  "Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning? She is after all your..." Jiang Mu's last word "ma" suddenly got stuck in her throat, and a look of shock appeared in her eyes as she stared at Manman.

  Right. How could she and Wang Fu not have thought of that? It's possible that Manman is not the daughter of the Wen family, but was brought in by the Wen family to replace Jin Meichen's position.

  It's also not right, Jin Meichen and Manman have a bit of an age difference.

  Manman didn't want to explain too clearly, but some things had to be made clear. She wanted to warn her mother not to always come to her place looking for trouble. It was time to show her who's boss: "That woman is not my mom, no matter what you think, she's not my mom. So there's no need for you to come and talk to me about her problems again. If you come again, I'll tell everyone about your greedy and poor behavior."

  "You, you..." Jiang's mother was so angry that she was choking with rage, "Do you think anyone will believe your lies about me?"

  "Are you daring to make an oath in front of everyone, including your father-in-law and second sister? Even if Eldest Sister is no longer that woman's daughter, you still won't abandon her, but instead continue to indulge and pamper her as before. For example, taking Eldest Sister to the gathering of madams again and claiming that as a mother-in-law, you are reasonable and fair-minded, and no matter what happens to Eldest Sister's natal family in the future, for the rest of your life, you will only recognize this eldest daughter-in-law."

  Manman's words were like a needle, and one needle stripped away Jiang Mu's last layer of skin that she wanted to hide.

  Jiang's mother was so angry that her lips turned purple, but she couldn't utter a single word.

  She wouldn't dare make such a vow, and if she did, she would lose face in front of the other ladies.

  Jiang's father and Jiang Mei applauded in their hearts upon hearing this. Jiang's father smiled slightly, stroking his chin whiskers, and said to Jiang's mother, "You were just saying that you're worried about our eldest son's wife? If someone truly cares about our eldest son's wife, rather than being greedy for her illustrious family background, what Yanran has asked of you shouldn't be difficult and should be done."

  Looking at the three of them united against a common enemy, Jiang Mu was so angry that she didn't say a word, her heart almost bursting with anger from Manman and Jiang Fu's sharp words.

  "Mom—"

  Just as Jiang Mei was about to help, her mother suddenly stood up and hastily walked out: "I remembered that the gas stove at home might not be turned off, I need to hurry back."

  Watching Jiang Mu flee in a sorry state, the three people in the living room couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  Xiao Dongzi saw his aunt and with one sentence turned defeat into victory, excitedly ran out of the hiding room, hugged his aunt's feet and praised: "Aunt, you're really awesome, I admire you."

  This little guy's mouth suddenly became so sweet. Manman smiled and wanted to touch the child's head, but suddenly found that the glasses on the bridge of his nose were gone, which really made her happy, and she asked Jiang Mei in a hurry: "Second sister, what about Xiaodong's eyes?"

  "I was just thinking of bringing him over for you to see. This morning, I went to the doctor and he said it's okay to remove his glasses." Jiang Mei, as a mother, had only been concerned about her son's eyes getting better, and now she had a big pile of tears accumulated in her eye sockets. Now facing Manman, this "Iron Lady" who was known for her toughness in business, suddenly found herself shedding tears uncontrollably.

  "Second sister." Manman hastily helped Xiaodong hand a tissue to Jiang Mei.

  Jiang Mei awkwardly smiled, covering her mouth with a tissue, and the words she had just said to Jiang Mu were still not quite reassuring. She was worried that this storm would affect Manman, and sighed: "Big sister is like this, I don't know what she'll become in the future. ——Manman, mom's not here, can you tell us the truth? Is big sister really that woman's child?"

  Jiang Mei's words were somewhat ambiguous, on the one hand asking Jin Meichen if she was Xu Yuer's biological daughter, and on the other hand inquiring whether Manman was the biological daughter of the Wen family.

  Manman was very calm, she had a phone call with her husband last night and felt even clearer in her mind. She slowly looked at the three pairs of questioning and concerned eyes and said: "I am not the biological daughter of that woman. As for whether or not my elder sister is the biological daughter of that woman, I don't know. But one thing is certain, my elder sister is no longer a daughter of the Jin family."

  Three simple sentences brought out different logic.

  Jiang Mei felt dizzy and confused after listening. The mature and steady Jiang father quickly understood the implicit meaning of his daughter-in-law's words. This matter, it is feared that someone has heard that Jin Meichen is not a daughter of the Jin family and that Manman is not a daughter of the Wen family, and is making trouble in between. Therefore, Manman's first and last sentences are true, and the middle sentence is also true. Whether Jin Meichen is actually a daughter of the Wen family or not still needs to be further identified.

  It seems this matter is not simple.

  Man Man really doesn't think Jin Meichen is the daughter of the Wen family, because Jin Meichen and Wen Shixuan don't look alike at all. Although Wen Huan has a slightly gloomy temperament, she still has some of Wen Shixuan's qualities deep down, such as being able to yield and adapt. But Jin Meichen is completely different. It's also not like saying that Jin Meichen completely inherited Xu Yu'e's traits. Xu Yu'e was stupid, but Jin Meichen isn't. No matter how much Xu Yu'e made a fuss, she would eventually accept her fate. Jin Meichen absolutely wouldn't.

  In fact, Jin Meichen's blood is more terrifying than the blood flowing through Xu Yuer and Wen Huan's bones. Unfortunately, the clever but misguided sister Wen Huan did not discover this point.

  A storm is coming.

  At the time when Manman was lost in thought, Jiang Fu and Jiang Mei looked at her with complex emotions after hearing her calmly say "I am not a daughter of the Wen family":

  They had not been unaware before, if they were right in their thoughts, wasn't Mianmian the daughter of that respectable family?

  ……

  Jiang Fei did not sleep all night and was preparing to rush to Jin Fu's place at dawn to beg for forgiveness.

  Jin Father and Jin Mother were having breakfast at home in the early morning when Jiang Fei suddenly appeared, which was both within their expectation and beyond their expectation.

  Originally, Jin's father thought that Jiang Fei might have come to make a scene and divorce Jin Meichen. However, unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Fei saw him, he suddenly knelt down and said: "Father-in-law, please spare Meichen for my sake."

  Jin Father and Jin Mother were shocked: Could it be that this son-in-law loved Jin Meichen to the bone, and still didn't leave her even at this point.

  But in fact, they were wrong, terribly wrong. From the intermittent words of Jiang Fei, I sensed a shameful self-contradiction:

  "Father-in-law, if Meichen wasn't your daughter, I'd be done for. Definitely done for, not just the people in my unit and at work would laugh at me, but also my classmates and friends. At home, I wouldn't even be able to hold my head up anymore! You might want to abandon her, but you can't abandon me like that. Think about it, since I became your son-in-law, I've respected you as if you were my own father. I don't even treat my own dad with this level of respect."

  These words made both Jin's father and mother suddenly speechless.

  It's a good thing that a son-in-law is filial, but if he himself says that he can't even be this filial to his own father, it makes people feel very uncomfortable.

  "You've heard Meichen say it." Father Jin asked, stroking his chin.

  "Yes." Jiang Fei chattered on, "I thought about it all night and couldn't figure it out. Why would you want to drive Mei Chen away? Even if Mei Chen isn't your biological daughter, you've raised her for so long, don't you have any feelings for her?"

  Jin Mu heard this and felt wronged to death, stood up and said: "It's her who doesn't want us, not us who don't want her."

  Jiang Fei: Ah, so it was his wife who brought trouble upon herself.

  "She thinks her biological parents treated her better than we did, but how is that possible? What kind of people are they in her biological parents' home? We knew when we bought her from them before. It's really not good at all." Mother Jin sobbed, "It's our own fault for spoiling her into this state."

  "Mom." Hearing this, Jiang Fei felt at ease in his heart. At least Jin Mu was holding onto this feeling, and everything would have a turning point. He said, "Mei Chen must be regretful now. No matter how good her biological mother is, how can she compare to the love and care you've given her for over twenty years?"

  "That's right." Jin Mu now needs this comforting word.

  Jin's father looked at his wife with some hesitation.

  Jiang Fei looked at them and happily promised: "I'll go get Mei Chen to come over and apologize to you two."

  ……

  Lu Family

  Several threads of intelligence have converged in their hands, and the two masters dare not take it lightly. What they fear most now is not the Wen family, Jiang family, or Jin family, but whether that person hiding behind the scenes will make a move.

  Jin Meichen was taken by Jiang Fei to meet Jin Father and Jin Mother, apologized in person, Jin Father and Jin Mother decided to take her to see Xu Yu'e, to clarify this matter.

  The person below brings this latest news.

  A hint of meaningful cold smile flashed in his eyes: "This is just right, we're still afraid they won't recognize us when we come back."

  Jin Fu set up a fake job for his daughter to receive a salary. In their plan, they were supposed to be together.

  Then, in the hotel lobby where Jin's father and mother met with Xu Yu'e, a wonderful play was staged.

  "She is my daughter, I heard it from her father's own mouth." Xǔ Yù'é said with gritted teeth.

  When Kim's parents bought Kim Meichen, they didn't buy her from her biological parents. The person who sold her claimed to be Kim Meichen's uncle and said that her parents couldn't bear to part with their daughter, so they entrusted him to find someone to adopt her. Moreover, at the time, Kim's parents also didn't want Kim Meichen's parents to come looking for her, so they agreed with each other not to investigate each other's backgrounds.

  This way, Jin Fu and Jin Mu really couldn't figure out whether Jin Mei Chen was indeed Xu Yu E's daughter or not.

  It's possible that Xu Yu'e is here to extort money. Thinking this way, Jin Mu becomes even more unwilling to return Jin Mei Chen to Xu Yu'e. She gets straight to the point and hints at Jiang Fei to bring out the money they brought for negotiations, testing Xu Yu'e.

  A few bundles of RMB were placed on the table, which should be tens of thousands of yuan.

  Xu Yujiao didn't care about the money at this moment, or rather, she looked down on such a small amount of money. With what Zhang Qiuyan told her about the Jin family, their wealth was far more than that little bit of money. The Jin family thought they could get rid of her with just this small amount of money, which was too humiliating for her.

  Pretending to be uninterested in the money, she said to Jin Meichen hiding behind Jiang Fei: "Meichen, let's go home with mom. It was because mom didn't know that this happened. Don't worry, mom will take you back this time and immediately drive away the fake one, letting you come back as the eldest daughter of the Wen family and inherit the vast wealth of the Wen family."

  What property does the Wen family have? Isn't it just a grocery store?

  Jin Meichen opened her mouth, just about to scold: You, this penniless and powerless woman, also want to acknowledge me as your daughter? It's like a toad wanting to eat swan meat, a foolish fantasy.

  At this time, several comrades in work clothes walked in from the door, causing both sides of the negotiation to look at each other in dismay.

  The person in charge walked up to Director Jin and said in a formal tone, "Director Jin, we are from the Discipline Inspection Commission. Someone has reported that you have set up a special position for your daughter to get on the payroll without doing any work. Please come with us."

  The scene was like a bomb exploding in the venue.

  Jin father sighed and ultimately fell because of this incompetent adopted daughter.

  As Jin's father was taken away by the investigation team, Jin's mother didn't care about Jin Meichen anymore, and quickly followed them out while making a phone call to ask for help.

  At this time, whether they are biological or not can be seen at a glance.

  Jiang Fei saw Jin's father because his own wife fell down, scared and trembling in both legs, also escaped.

  Jin Meichen looked around and found that only Xu Yujie was left, who was also stunned.

  Xu Yuye, who had originally wanted to take advantage of the situation, lost hope once again. Looking at Jin Meichen, who might lose her wealth because of this, she was truly hesitant.

  Do you recognize it?

  Admittedly, isn't it just picking up another tattered shoe like Manman again?

  Jin Meichen, in a state of anxiety, seeing Xu Yu'e about to leave, momentarily overcome with fear and apprehension, grabbed Xu Yu'e's sleeve and cried out: "Mom!"

  ……

  Manman was informed by the Wen family that she could no longer bear the surname Wen.

  It wasn't Wen Shixuan who said that, actually, on the night when Xu Yu'e brought Jin Meichen back, Wen Shixuan had a big fight with Xu Yu'e and Jin Meichen.

  Wen Shi Xuan told Xu Yu E to take Jin Mei Chen away immediately, saying that this house was given by Man Man and without Man Man's permission, Jin Mei Chen absolutely cannot come in.

  Xu Yujiao cried and quarreled, punching him with her fist: "You really have a heart bitten by a dog! This is your own daughter, your real one, how can you drive her away and let that fake one replace her?"

  Wen Shi Xuan looked at Jin Mei Chen, and in his mind, he could only recall the words Jin Mei Chen had said to Man Man yesterday: "A daughter like this, could she be my daughter?" He didn't believe it.

  Seeing Wen Shixuan's unwilling gaze, Jin Meichen suddenly became furious: She was determined to drive Manman out of the Wen family today and become a child without a surname or parents, making her more miserable by hundreds and thousands of times.

  Bang!

  She and Jiang Fei, with the help of her wealthy parents, slapped the property certificate of the newly purchased house in the small district opposite Lu's residence in front of Wen Shi Xuan: "The price of this house is more than twice as expensive as the one you are living in now. Can she afford to buy a house and support you and be filial to you? I can too! And I'll do it better!"

  Xu Yujiao heard this and finally felt the wind blowing in her direction, proudly showing off to her husband: "Did you hear that? This is our real daughter, what about that fake one? Wake up!"

  Wen Shi Xuan's two eyes, as big as cowbells, glared angrily at the two of them, just about to spew fire.

  Suddenly, Wen Huan rushed out from the middle, picked up the property certificate that Jin Mei Chen had placed on the table, and slapped it back onto Jin Mei Chen's face. Smiling sweetly, she said: "You go live with my mom. My dad and I will still live here."

  "Ah!" Jin Mei Chen, who had recognized Wen Huan, was shocked beyond words.

  Sorry, Wen Huan doesn't like Man Man, but she dislikes Jin Mei Chen even more.

  "Yuan Yuan?" Xǔ Yùe also didn't expect her little daughter would take this action, and was stunned.

  "Mom, what do you think? Are you going with her or staying here with me and dad?" Wen Huan asked Xu Yu'e.

  Stuttering Xu Yu'e, of course, wanted to follow her daughter who could finally provide for her. The younger daughter was filial and loving, but she couldn't earn money yet and could only ask her mother for it. It would be better to follow the older daughter first, and when the younger daughter started earning money, she could come back to live with her.

  Thinking of the perfect solution, Xu Yu'e smiled at her younger daughter: "Yuan Yuan, don't blame Mom, your sister has just come back and needs Mom to accompany her. In a few days, Mom will come back to accompany you, you must study hard and get into the Central Academy of Fine Arts, don't lose to your sister."

  Wen Yu smiled coldly in her heart, but her face remained expressionless: "Mom, I can understand, you go with her."

  From start to finish, Jin Meichen was the most astonished, feeling as if she had vaguely stepped into some kind of trap.

  But the thoughts in his mind had not changed.

  Turning back, he immediately let a familiar lawyer send a notice to Manman in the name of Xu Yuye, telling Manman that from now on, she was no longer surnamed Wen and was not the daughter of the Wen family, but a person without a surname.

  This lawyer's notice, the first time wasn't received by Mang Mang personally, but was finally handed over on the weekend when she returned home from work. On the way back, she met her second sister Jiang Mei, Jiang Fu and others, and walked back with Comrade Jiang Yan together.

  Taking the lawyer's notice from the mailbox, I was worried that my daughter-in-law had gotten into some kind of trouble. I opened it first and saw that Jiang Yan Comrade had written a strongly worded letter in collaboration with Xu Yuye and Jin Meichen. My mouth curled up in a cold smile on one side, while I burst out laughing inside.

  His daughter-in-law is someone else's child, what's there to be afraid of?

  That's hilarious.

  Jiang's father and Jiang Mei were not as optimistic as Comrade Jiang Yan, thinking that Meimei was indeed a member of their family, but the family had never made any moves, hadn't they also disowned Meimei?

  Jiang Mei frowned and looked worried about Manman.

  Jiang's father clapped his hands and decided: "Mangmang can't be surnamed Wen, it's better. From now on, she will follow Ah Yan and be surnamed Jiang. She is my daughter-in-law and also my half-daughter. From now on, I will treat her as my own daughter."

  Comrade Jiang Yan heard his father's words, pinched his chin with his fingertips, and nodded repeatedly: No matter whose daughter the wife is, it's best to have the same surname as him. From now on, he and his wife shared a surname, and they were closer than relatives, couldn't be any closer.

  Manman knew her husband was coming back today, so she definitely had a craving. Early in the morning, she went to the vegetable market and bought a big bunch of vegetables. As she walked home carrying big bags and small bags, she saw three members of the Jiang family standing at the entrance of the stairs, all staring at her. She couldn't help but wonder: "Is there something on my face?"

  One hand took over the vegetable basket from his wife's hands, and the other hand wrapped around her waist. Jiang Yan's eyebrows rose as he smiled slyly, "Mianmian, why don't you take my surname Jiang from now on?"

  He must have taken the wrong medicine.

  Jiang's father unexpectedly chimed in: "Mangmang, take the surname Jiang. The Jiang surname is a good one, it's a noble surname."

  The moon's brow furrowed: Has it finally come to this?
