When he saw new guests coming, Li Xiao took it to burn incense.
According to the rules, Wang Yifan and Wang Yingsi each took three long incense sticks and lit them.
After worshiping for a while, he came out again.
Wang Yingsi glanced at Qin Fan and Zhou Yulan, who were looking calm, and smiled faintly.
"Old man, I'm very familiar with these two people. May I ask...?"
How could Jiang Tianrui not know that the other party did this on purpose, so he said first, "Oh, this is my son Qin Fan's family?"
Wang Yingsi had a look of surprise on her face, looked at Fang Jie with a scrutinizing gaze, and said in a strange tone: "Master Jiang, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"Mrs. Jiang has not appeared for more than twenty years. You have searched all over China and still can't find her. And now you bring back a man named Qin who you say is your son?"
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion among the guests.
In fact, all the guests were surprised by this from the beginning. The big family attaches great importance to bloodline orthodoxy, but no one dared to question it.
But I didn't expect that Wang Yingsi would come here, be very bold, and directly raise the issue in broad daylight.
The questions are also very sharp and strange, which can easily make people think.
It has to be said that Wang Yingsi's thoughts are vicious.
As the saying goes, a family scandal should not be publicized. It is very strange that Jiang Shiwen is absent today.
Those who knew a little bit about the inside story wisely chose to ignore it, and everyone in the Jiang family kept silent.
But Wang Yingsi lit a fire and wanted to push the Jiang family to the top of public opinion.
If the Jiang family avoids announcing it, it will make people feel that Qin Fan's origin is unknown and that he was the child of Fang Jie's infidelity.
If the truth of the matter is told, it will undoubtedly be another big scandal for the Jiang family.
The Jiang family forced Jiang Shiwen to commit suicide, and the three major families failed to achieve their goals.
As her best friend, she still resented the fact that the Jiang family regretted their marriage. At this time, it would be Wang Yingsi's fault to seize this issue and not raise an issue.
Jiang Tianrui immediately darkened his face.
They didn't have a good impression of Wang Yingsi at all. Whatever Jiang Shiwen did, Wang Yingsi's advice was indispensable.
Now that Wang Yingsi is asking this question, he is trying to pour dirty water on Jiang Tianrui and Fang Jie.
Jiang Tianrui snorted angrily: "How can I not know about my own son! I don't need you to worry about it!"
Fang Jie's eyes were cold. If there weren't so many guests here, she would have slapped this woman out of Jiang's house.
At this time, Zhou Yulan smiled lightly and said, "Oh, Mrs. Xiao's words really reminded me."
"When my dad found Qin Fan, just to be on the safe side, I quietly conducted a DNA test on their hair. From a medical perspective, it was confirmed that they are 100% father-son."
She took out the original DNA identification report from her clothes bag, handed it to Li Xiao, and motioned for the other party to pass it on for everyone to see.
"This is the test report from that time. Those present today are all prominent members of the capital. Please bear witness."
It must be said that Zhou Yulan was very thoughtful. When she came to the capital, she brought this inspection report with her in advance.
Even when she had to change into formal clothes before worshiping her ancestors, she didn't forget to put them down.
I didn't expect that it would actually be used at this time.
A hundred explanations are not as good as one scientific proof. People in modern society believe in scientific judgments more.
All the guests are literate people, and many of them are knowledgeable in medical skills, so they can naturally understand the data on the inspection report.
Then, Zhou Yulan took a few steps forward and came to the middle of the crowd with a smile.
"Most of the guests here today are older than me and can be considered my seniors. I want to ask you one thing, which one is more important, the gift of childbirth or the gift of nurturing?"
She is affable and polite, and she has already clarified the relationship between father and son with the inspection report.
The favor of all the guests towards her greatly increased.
Among the guests was an old man, dressed in traditional clothes and with a long white beard.
He smiled and said: "My dear young lady, of course the grace of nurturing is greater than the grace of giving birth. Sheep have the grace of kneeling down to breastfeed, and crows have the obligation of feeding back."
Many other guests also nodded frequently.
These large and small families not only pay attention to inheritance, but also pay attention to the education of traditional culture.
As the saying goes, filial piety comes first among all good deeds, and filial piety is the basic rule of conduct for others.
Zhou Yulan smiled generously and said, "Old sir, you are absolutely right."
"Qin Fan's original name was Jiang Fan. The reason why he did not change his surname back to Jiang was because he could not forget the kindness of his adoptive parents."
"Back then, my mother and father were robbed and killed by bandits, and the whole family was lost. This is a well-known fact to everyone. At the critical moment, it was the Qin family who saved Jiang Fan."
"But unfortunately, the Qin family was implicated, and their own children were snatched away by bandits."
"In desperation, my mother went after the Qin family's children and entrusted Jiang Fan to the Qin family. This left my mother wandering overseas for more than twenty years."
"So, it was the Qin family who raised Jiang Fan, and my mother also spent more than twenty years bringing back the Qin family's children from overseas."
When all the guests heard this secret, they all suddenly realized it.
"Hey, Mrs. Jiang is so righteous! No wonder Mr. Jiang couldn't find her after so many years."
"Yes, Mrs. Jiang and her son are both loving and righteous people. The young master does not change his surname because he wants to remind himself not to forget his kindness."
This kind of discussion is endless, and there are praises everywhere.
Seeing that her goal was achieved, Zhou Yulan changed the topic and asked with a smile.
"As the old gentleman said, sheep have the obligation to kneel down to breastfeed, and crows have the obligation to feed them in return. Mrs. Xiao, you Xiao and Wang families are both big families that have been passed down for hundreds of years. Don't you know how to repay your kindness?"
The speaker has no intention of listening, and the listener has the intention. Whether it is the Xiao family or the Wang family, they were all protected by the Jiang family when they were weak.
Zhou Yulan asked back like a question.
Even animals know how to be grateful for their nurturing. Are you, Wang Yingsi, not even as good as an animal?
Suddenly, Wang Yingsi's old face turned the color of pig liver.
Wang Yifan on the side was also extremely embarrassed, with a completely guilty expression.
Many guests knew a little bit about the secrets of the four heirloom families, and they couldn't help but secretly praise them.
This is really a good question.
Wang Yingsi squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, "Oh, it turns out there is a hidden secret. I was rude."
In fact, deep down she was so angry that she was gritting her teeth.
I wanted to attack Jiang Tianrui and Fang Jie because of this, but unexpectedly, Zhou Yulan showed up halfway.
In a few words, he clarified why Fang Jie didn't show up and why Qin Fan's surname was Qin.
What annoys her the most is that it also highlights Fang Jie's righteousness and Qin Fan's virtue of not forgetting to repay kindness.
It's like stealing the chicken but losing the rice. I personally put the icing on the cake and praise the enemy.
Perhaps this was something Wang Yingsi had not expected.
In fact, everyone knows that Zhou Yulan only told a little bit of the story, and there are many unknown secrets in it.
Ning Mu and Xie Wenxiu looked at each other.
The two of them secretly praised Zhou Yulan for her wit, eloquence, and ability to hide her secrets.
At this time, Jiang Tianrui took a few steps forward and cupped his hands to the guests around him.
"Dear relatives and friends, from now on, my son Qin Fan will take over the Jiang family's Bian Que Hall! He will have full authority to handle all matters, big and small!"
Suddenly, the whole audience was shocked again. This official announcement came so suddenly!
