Dinner was set in Zhining Garden. The family of four sat around a table, and servant girls and old women shuttled around to serve them.
During this period, Madam Wang kept putting food into her daughter's bowl. Every dish was according to Wen Yuanyuan's taste. Obviously, she had learned about it from Nanny Yang before this.
These trivial matters that he had never paid attention to in his previous life had changed his attitude at this moment. He was filled with gratitude and gratitude.
Wen Zexuan had also pinched him twice. After the anger settled down, Wen Yuanyuan could deal with him normally. It was just a pretense. It was very tiring.
After dinner, the servants came in to clean up. The four of them went to the small hall to chat.
Most of the time, they were talking while Wen Yuanyuan was listening. It wasn't that she didn't want to blend in, but she had just returned and had to put on an act.
As the sky turned dark, the head of the family, Wen Zexuan, announced that he would leave.
Madam Wang wanted to sleep with her daughter from the bottom of her heart, but she was afraid of scaring her, so she couldn't force her too much. Thus, she took a step back and offered to send her back to Yining Court.
Zhi Ning Court wasn't close to Yi Ning Court, so it was really tiring to go back and forth. Wen Yuanyuan was about to decline, but Wen Changxian spoke first.
"Mother, why don't we let our son send our little sister off so that we can have a chat?”
His brother's action was in line with Wen Yuanyuan's intention, so he immediately agreed.
Since her son had said so, Madam Wang could only give up on her original idea and reluctantly watched her children leave.
On the way back, the siblings walked silently in front of each other. Mrs. Yang and the others followed at a distance. For a moment, there was silence, and only the sound of footsteps echoed.
After an unknown period of time, Wen Changxian broke the silence.
"Sister, do you blame us?"
Wen Yuanyuan blinked blankly," What do you mean?”
Thinking of Wen Yuanyuan's indifference during the day, Wen Changxian sighed," You were kidnapped back then. As your parents and brother, you were more or less responsible. Do you blame us?"”
Hearing this, Wen Yuanyuan understood.
He shook his head." I don't."
Before he could react, she continued,"I used to hate you, but after seeing you today, I don't hate you anymore."”
In her previous life, she had resented her mother, but she had finally come to her senses after her mother passed away. Now that she had seen her biological mother again, she did not have the slightest bit of resentment. She only had gratitude and gratitude for giving her a chance to start over.
Hearing this, Wen Changxian exhaled," Actually, you should blame us. After all, if we didn't take good care of you, you wouldn't have suffered for so many years."”
"After twelve years, I finally found you and brought you back. I haven't done anything yet, but I made you suffer…I'm sorry, sister.”
Wen Changxian looked at her apologetically.
Wen Yuan understood what he had realized. In fact, it was true. The old lady's actions were very obvious. His brother was not stupid. How could he not know what she was thinking?
In her previous life, her brother had only returned after she had returned for a period of time. At that time, everything had already been settled. Naturally, there had never been such words like today.
After thinking about it, Wen Yuanyuan felt that since the old lady had already given her a show of strength, if she didn't return the favor, wouldn't she be letting herself down?
She silently apologized to her brother in her heart. She lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment. When she raised her head again, her eyes were already filled with tears.
"Brother, I don't think I should have come back."”
Hearing this, Wen Changxian's expression changed," Nonsense, what do you mean you shouldn't have come back? This is your home, who should come back if you shouldn't?"”
After saying that, he realized that his tone was a little heavy. He took a breath and said in a slightly slower tone,"I know that you are very smart and have seen through something. As a junior, I have no right to say anything wrong to an elder, but sister, you have to know that my mother and I have always missed you.”
Wen Yuanyuan sniffled and lowered his head without saying a word. His drooping shoulders made him look like a pitiful little girl.
Seeing this, Wen Changxian's heart softened beyond words. He simply reached out to hold her hand and took huge strides all the way back to Yining Garden. He brought the people to sit down and then slowly opened his mouth.
"There are some things that Mother can't tell you, so I will tell you today. Back then, you were separated from the servants at the Lantern Festival and the whole family couldn't find you. In the end, when they found out that you were kidnapped and left Yanjing, our mother fell seriously ill…A year later, Grandmother accidentally found Mu Zhen in a side branch of the Wen family. She was born on the same day as you and had the idea of adopting her…"
Wen Yuanyuan knew what happened after that.
At that time, the Wang family did not agree to the adoption, but the Old Furen insisted. In the same year, Wenmuzhen officially became the adopted daughter of the High Duke's Public House and was raised by the Old Furen.
The old lady liked Wen Muzhen very much, so she went to the Wang family to ask for the name Wen Yuanyuan. She wanted her to replace the identity of the Di daughter of the High Duke's Public House. The result was obvious. The Wang family did not agree and even gave Wen Muzhen this name. The old lady naturally did not want to do it. In the end, Old General Wang, who named Wen Yuanyuan, came forward. The old lady was pressured and gave up on the idea.
All these years, Wen Muzhen had been raised by the Old Furen's side. Because the Wang family did not agree to register her, in the eyes of the world, she was only the adopted daughter of the High Duke's Public House.
Old Furen was almost possessed by Wen Muzhen's love for her. She had always remembered her name and her name. After she came back, she blamed it on Wen Muzhen. Wen Muzhen was the adopted daughter of the Public House and she had not been officially recognized for a long time.
After saying so much in one breath, Wen Changxian raised his head and drank a cup of tea.
Then, he concluded," The reason why I'm telling you this is to tell you that Mother has always been thinking about you. It was Grandmother's intention to adopt Mu Zhen. In this Public House, you are the legitimate Di daughter. No one can surpass you.”
After sending his brother away, Wen Yuanyuan looked at the starry sky and let out a long sigh.
After a while, she suddenly turned to ask Granny Yang," Granny, how much did you hear from Brother just now?”
Mrs. Yang lowered her head." Please forgive me, Miss."”
Wen Yuan smiled. He heard everything. The door wasn't closed and his brother's voice was loud. Those who had ears would have heard it clearly.
After pondering for a moment, Wen Yuanyuan spoke again," There's no need to restrain the servants of Yining Garden. Let them be."”
Mrs. Yang was stunned at first, but she quickly reacted. Although she was very surprised, she agreed without saying anything.
Wen Yuanyuan walked to the window and looked at the few old women and servant girls in the courtyard. They were not strangers to her, they were all servants in Yining Garden in her previous life. Although she did not have a deep impression of their temperaments, she remembered that there were a few gossips among them.
Old Furen wanted to show off her strength because of Wen Muzhen, so she stabbed her heart with a knife!
She knew very well that whether it was Old Furen or Wen Muzhen, they cared about the identity of an adopted daughter the most!
