Chapter 476: Frankly, I am his wife
"Wait! I have something to say! I... I am Lu Huaijin's country wife, and that six or seven-year-old child is also mine." Yao Qingnian said stiffly.
"His wife from the country, um, will be back soon...what, child...child! Yours?" After these words came out, everyone was stunned and looked at her in disbelief.
"Nianran, are you kidding? You must be teasing your grandfather." Old Duke Chen didn't believe it.
"I'm not kidding. I came here today because I have something important to tell you." Yao Qingnian looked serious.
"Go and get my reassurance pills first. Girl, wait until I finish taking the medicine. I'm old and can't stand the stimulation." Old Duke Chen patted his chest.
"I...I want one too!" Old Madam Chen also asked the servants to bring her a pill. After they took the reassurance pill, she signaled her to continue.
“My name is Yao Qingnian, not Shen Nianran, and I came to the capital to find my husband Lu Huaijin.
Entering the Shen Mansion was completely a coincidence and an accident. I fainted outside the mansion at that time and was brought to the Shen Mansion in a daze. When I woke up, I was already in the Shen Mansion.
I was planning to find a chance to leave, but I accidentally saw that Shen Nianran's jade pendant was exactly the same as the one in my hand. In addition, the maid Linglong told me that I looked exactly like her young lady. I couldn't help but become suspicious, so I stayed and investigated the truth of the matter.
Later, I found out that I was actually my mother's child, so I stayed in the Shen Mansion to find out the truth and understand my life experience. Later, I exposed a series of Shen Wenting's true colors, all of which were done by me. "
"You said you are not Nianran, and you are the child of the Shen family, exactly the same, what does this make sense?" The old Duke and others were confused.
Only Zheng Cheng widened his eyes and asked, "You mean, Shuhua didn't give birth to one daughter, but two..."
"Well, Shen Nianran is my twin sister."
"This...how is this possible...then...where is my Nianran?" Chen Shuhua looked stunned.
"On her way back to Beijing, she encountered bandits and fell off a cliff and died. The culprit who planned all this was Shen Wenting."
"Why...why did he do this!" Chen Shuhua looked at Yao Qingnian with tears in her eyes, and then asked: "How can you make us believe that what you said is true?!"
"When I went to look for medicine this time, I accidentally met Shen Nianran who had escaped death, and brought her back. I came here today so that you can be mentally prepared. When you are calm, I will bring her back to see you." Yao Qingnian did not hide anything.
"You said she's not dead?"
"Hmm." She nodded.
"This... this is too unbelievable, Shuhua, you are so confused. Why don't you know that you are pregnant with twins? I told you not to marry Shen Wenting, but you didn't listen. Look at what you have done. My two granddaughters have been wandering outside for more than 20 years. Fortunately, God opened his eyes and let them come back." Old Duke Chen excitedly shook Yao Qingnian's hand.
During those years, Chen Shuhua didn't want them to worry, and Shen Wenting didn't tell the family about many things. The old Duke and his wife didn't know so many things had happened. They thought she was living well in the Shen Mansion. People outside also said that Shen Wenting was a good person, so they didn't ask much. In fact, if they had known this was the case, they would never agree to their daughter marrying him.
Chen Shuhua felt mixed emotions, including guilt and heartache. She hated herself for being so stupid that she didn't even know she had two daughters.
"No, Shuhua, if you were pregnant with twins, how could you not know? There must be something fishy going on." Old Madam Chen was the first to react.
"Yes! Tell me, who was the doctor who treated you back then? I want to settle the score with him." asked Duke Chen.
"When I found out I was pregnant, a female doctor invited by Shen Wenting came back from outside to see me. She didn't leave until I gave birth."
"Then do you know where she is from and where her family is?" asked Old Duke Chen anxiously.
"I don't know. At that time, I trusted Shen Wenting unconditionally. He arranged all of this. The female doctor was steady and her medical skills were great. Most importantly, she was a female doctor, so it was convenient and considerate for her to take care of me. I never doubted her. After I gave birth, I even asked Shen Wenting why the female doctor left suddenly.
He said the female doctor had something going on at home and he didn't have time to say goodbye to her, so he asked Shen Wenting to tell me that she had left. At that time, there were many things going on at home, so I didn't think much about it. "
Chen Shuhua believed in Shen Wenting unconditionally and thought that everything he did was for her own good. She never doubted him. Looking back now, she feels that there was something strange and abnormal about everything, and it took her so many years to realize that something was wrong.
"All of this is related to Shen Wenting. We don't know why he did this."
"Back then, when I was pregnant with Nianran, my belly was a little different from that of ordinary women. It was much bigger and it was very difficult to carry the baby. In the later stages, I couldn't move at all. On the day of delivery, a female doctor took over the delivery at first, until I passed out. Before I fainted, I vaguely heard the baby crying. It was not until another doctor woke me up and the midwife told me to hold on and make sure the baby was born that I realized that I was hallucinating. How could there be a baby crying when the baby was not born yet!
I was so confused. Now that I think about it, the most likely scenario is that the female doctor took the child away. But why did she do that?" Chen Shuhua said with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, Mom, it's all in the past. There's no point thinking about it now. The important thing is to live a good life now and find out the truth about why I was taken away."
"Yes, girl Nianran, no, it's girl Qingnian, she is right. We can't be so confused. We must get to the bottom of the matter and make up for the suffering the two children have endured over the years." Old Madam Chen gently comforted her.
"Yes, mother, I understand. Qingnian, tell us how you have been through these years..." Chen Shuhua asked her to come to her side and tell them what happened in these years...
After hearing this, Chen Shuhua wished she could bring Shen Nianran back immediately so that the family could be reunited. Yao Qingnian promised her that she would bring him back tomorrow.
"Duke, what about Captain Lu?" Zheng Cheng was a little at a loss. What did he hear today? He thought Lu Huaijin was a scumbag, but he didn't expect that they were a married couple and made him worry for nothing.
"Ask him to come along tomorrow. Since he's my grandson-in-law, there's nothing to worry about. This is a good thing. We were trying to bring them together." Old Duke Chen laughed, and all his unhappiness disappeared. No wonder the girl agreed so readily last time. Fortunately, they were a couple, otherwise he might really go out and break his legs.
