Chapter 279 Tell the truth
Wang Jingyi's identity was figured out, but Zhou Sheng was in trouble again. She didn't know how to tell her child about it.
No matter what the reason was, the child was still left to live outside and endure hardship for so many years.
"Aheng, what should we do now?"
She wanted to know Qi Heng's opinion on this matter. Of course, she would have to tell Wang Jingyi sooner or later. She just wanted to discuss how to do it.
Qi Heng thought for a moment and looked solemn.
"I think it's better not to tell Jingyi about this."
"Why?"
Zhou Sheng was a little surprised.
After finally finding their daughter, why did they choose to hide it? Then what's the point of finding her?
Besides, only after Wang Jingyi understands her life experience can they take care of her more easily.
"My child is still too young. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it."
Qi Heng spoke slowly.
After all, the person has been found, and other things can be done slowly in the future.
"Why don't we talk to the old lady about this first? As for Jingyi, let's get along with her for a while first, at least to let the children gradually become familiar with us."
Qi Heng had not thought of the issues that Zhou Sheng had considered. After all, this matter was a big shock to both of them and to the child.
Especially for Wang Jingyi, he didn't know if the child could accept such news at once. If he told her rashly, it would be bad if it had the opposite effect.
"But, I really want to hear him call me mom!"
There was a look of regret on Zhou Sheng's face.
From the moment she knew that Wang Jingyi was her biological daughter, she fantasized about the moment when mother and daughter would recognize each other. If she did, she didn't know how long it would take.
"I understand how you feel."
Qi Heng took Zhou Sheng's hand and persuaded him. He didn't want to hear Jingyi call him daddy, but some things couldn't be rushed, especially feelings.
Wang Jingyi has lived with her old woman since she was a child. For her, her old woman is the person she is closest to. She may not have any idea of the words "mom and dad".
They must first find a way to gain the child's favor before they can make Wang Jingyi accept this matter more calmly.
Zhou Sheng thought for a while and felt that what Qi Heng said made sense. Haste makes waste, and he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. She understood these principles, but she just wanted to get to know her daughter, so she felt a little too anxious.
"Okay, then I will listen to you and tell Grandma Jingyi first."
In order not to arouse the child's resentment, he decided to adopt Qi Heng's strategy. Anyway, he had been waiting for so many years and he didn't care about this moment.
So Zhou Sheng went to find the old woman alone.
"Mother-in-law, I want to tell you something. I hope you are mentally prepared in advance."
Although Wang Jingyi is her and Qi Heng's biological daughter, she was raised by the old woman. To this old woman, Wang Jingyi is everything to her.
Zhou Sheng was afraid that the old lady would not be able to accept the news when she heard it, so she chose her words very carefully.
"What's the matter? Just tell me, I'm listening."
The old woman had a smile on her face. She had been living here quite comfortably these past few days, and she was in a good mood too.
Zhou Sheng hesitated before speaking out.
"I think you also noticed the ban, the child looks a bit similar to me."
At this point, she paused, wanting to give the old woman some time to react.
Sure enough, after listening to her words, the old lady looked seriously at Zhou Sheng, and after looking at him for a while, she showed such an expression on her face.
"You see, my eyesight doesn't get better as I get older. Now that you put it like that, I think you and this kid really look alike."
However, the old woman didn't think much about it at this time, thinking it was just a coincidence.
Zhou Sheng continued.
"Mother-in-law, to tell you the truth, we were suspicious the first time we saw Jingyi, so we later took his hair for DNA testing."
The old woman's expression froze when she heard this. She seemed to understand something, but she also seemed not to understand.
"What did you say you were going to do a DNA test with Jingyi? Isn't that a paternity test?"
Although she was just a rural woman, she had heard that this technology was used to test blood relationships. Maybe Zhou Sheng and the others did this because they thought Wang Jingyi had something to do with them.
Zhou Sheng didn't want to hide it and nodded directly. Anyway, that was what she was talking about.
"Yes, we thought Jingyi was our daughter, so we went for an appraisal. The results showed that she was the child we lost a few years ago."
She simply told everything in one breath.
The old woman immediately became excited and her voice suddenly rose several decibels.
"No wonder you insisted on bringing us here. It turns out you came to snatch the child from me."
For her, Wang Jingyi is her lifeblood. If she is really taken away by Zhou Sheng's family, she will really be alone in the future.
When she thought of this, she felt uncomfortable and angry, feeling that she had been deceived.
"Mother-in-law, that's not the case..."
Seeing that the old woman had misunderstood, Zhou Sheng had to explain quickly.
But the old lady, who was in a state of excitement, couldn't listen at all.
"I don't care what your purpose is. I raised Jingyi since she was a child. She is my granddaughter. None of you should try to take her away from me. I will take her back now."
After saying that, she really turned around and wanted to find Wang Jingyi and take her back with her.
Zhou Sheng stopped him quickly.
"But don't worry, listen to me first!"
She looked sincere and sincere.
"I know how important this child Jingyi is to you. Don't worry. Even if we recognize Jingyi, we will not deprive you of the opportunity to meet. You are still her most beloved grandma!"
"Besides, Jingyi's child is very smart and kind. Can you bear to see her living in that poor little ravine all her life?"
In order to take care of the old woman's emotions, she tried to speak as tactfully as possible, and also made her position clear. No matter whose child Wang Jingyi was, her relationship with the old woman would never change.
After hearing these words, the old woman's mood improved a little, but after all, she was still worried and her expression was still nervous.
However, seeing her loosen up a bit, Zhou Sheng felt confident and continued to persuade her while the iron was hot.
"If you want, mother-in-law, you can live with us, so that you can see each other every day."
In short, they are not ungrateful people. The old lady not only saved Qi Heng, but also raised their daughter. They will not ignore her.
