Chapter 239 - 239 Family
239 Family
It was not only the Ning family, Gu Yu, and Jiang Ying who gave Old Master Ning a gift. Even the Empress Dowager, Xin Xin, Yuan Hui, and even Liu Xuan gave Old Master Ning a gift.
These gifts were not very expensive, but they had all put in a lot of effort. They were all Old Master Ning’s favorites.
Old Master Ning would never forget his birthday today.
In the future, he might be able to celebrate another ten or twenty birthdays, but none of them would be as unforgettable as today.
After the gift-giving segment ended, Jiang Ying took the opportunity to say to Ning Yue, “Yueyue, I brought two people to see you.”
“Which two people? Why didn’t you bring them in for Grandpa’s birthday? Why did you leave them outside?” Ning Yue asked.
Jiang Ying’s mysterious look convinced Ning Yue that the two people he had brought must be very important to her.
“They only arrived now. Considering one of them’s health, I got someone to slow down. Their health was the priority along the way, so they were delayed on the way. At least they arrived at this time.”
Jiang Ying asked Ah Da to help them in. When Ning Yue saw the two of them, tears welled up in her eyes.
“Eldest Aunt! Young Uncle!” Ning Yue stepped forward and held their hands.
The Host had seen the two of them when she was young, but at that time, she had been bewitched by An Yuan. She was unwilling to acknowledge Liu Yun’s family. She had let the Liu family down!
“You, you’re Yueyue?” Uncle Liu Shan also cried when he saw Ning Yue.
They looked too similar. Ning Yue looked too much like his little sister, Liu Yun.
“Yes, Uncle and Eldest Aunt. Yueyue has let you down and made you suffer.” Ning Yue cried as she spoke.
“Mother! Little Uncle!” Liu Xuan, who was originally standing not far away, knelt down when he saw that it was his mother and Little Uncle.
“Mother, I was unfilial. I was in high school, but I couldn’t bring you over to share this joy. I’ve let you down.”
The sight of the cousins crying moved everyone present.
“Yueyue, let Uncle and Eldest Aunt take a seat first. They only ate dry food on the way. They should be hungry now,” Jiang Ying said.
Actually, how could Jiang Ying let Ning Yue’s uncle and aunt starve? He had prepared a lot of delicious food on the way.
As Liu Xuan’s mother, Madam Fang, was not in good health, Jiang Ying asked the doctor to prepare food on the way. He said this because he did not want Ning Yue to cry too sadly.
“Yes, yes, yes. Take a seat.” Old Master Ning was the first to react and called out to Madam Fang and Liu Shan.
“Go and refill the bowls and chopsticks,” Old Master Ning said to his daughters-in-law.
Madam Qin, Madam Qu, and Madam Qi reacted. Madam He stood rooted to the ground in a daze. She looked at Liu Shan’s face in a daze.
“What are you doing?” Old Master Ning could not help but ask when he saw Madam He in a daze.
At this moment, everyone’s gazes gathered on Madam He.
Ning Yue also noticed that when Liu Shan and Madam Fang entered just now, Madam He’s expression was a little off.
Originally, Ning Yue thought that Madam He was affected by her emotions, but now, it seemed that this was not the reason.
What was wrong with Madam He?
“Mother.” Ning Yue walked to Madam He’s side. “Did something happen?”
Madam He came back to her senses and was about to speak when tears streamed down her face. “Yueyue, I remember now. My family is in Luzhou. My surname is Liu.”
Rumble…
Madam He’s words stunned everyone.
At this moment, Liu Shan and Madam Fang reacted and walked up to Madam He.
Liu Shan asked excitedly, “You… You’re my little sister, Yuanyuan?”
“Yuanyuan, it’s been so hard looking for you. Back then, you disappeared and my sister passed away. Our family suffered a huge blow. Now, you’re finally back!”
Madam He was stunned. Yuanyuan. What a familiar name! Yes, her nickname was Yuanyuan.
She was the eldest daughter of the Liu family. She had two older brothers and a younger sister. She finally remembered them all.
Tears streamed down Madam He’s face. She hugged Madam Fang tightly. “Yuanyuan, it was so hard for your brother to find you back then. He felt guilty for the rest of his life. Even until his death, he still had regrets.”
Hearing Madam Fang’s words, Madam He felt even more guilty.
“I’m sorry. I forgot about you. I’m sorry. It’s my fault.” Madam He wailed.
