"There are only two jade pendants. My father gave one to my elder sister and one to my younger sister, hoping to protect the health of both sisters. Who would have thought that my younger sister would still die? Yes, she died. My father and I buried her with our own hands. And this jade pendant... How did it end up in your hands?"

"She's dead, how could it be you? Impossible...but this jade pendant..."

Ye Xingzhou began to feel confused again. What was going on?

By the way, my sister’s grave is still in the northwest!

"Could someone have dug up her tomb and stolen the jade pendant?"

He couldn't help but speak.

Su Wanwan and Shen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the words were not finished.

Because they couldn't find out much about the dead child, the two of them really considered that the dead child must have a grave. What if it was stolen by tomb robbers?

That's why I said I would return it, and I didn't dare to acknowledge it as my relative so affirmatively.

When Su Wanwan heard Ye Xingzhou speak so confidently, she also began to suspect that maybe her biological parents were tomb robbers or bought the antiques.

"Not necessarily. What if your little sister is really not dead?"

Shen Yuan disagreed with this statement.

If tomb robbing makes sense, then what about appearance? My wife does look very similar to members of the Ye family. It's not such a coincidence.

"No... I checked with my father, she is really dead, her body is stiff..."

Ye Xingzhou obviously couldn't imagine this result, nor could he accept it. If his younger sister was really not dead, but he and his father buried her alive, he couldn't bear this result!

"Nothing is impossible. Since there is a grave, why not confirm it?"

In fact, Shen Yuan was not too sure. If it weren't for the fact that the dead are the most important, he, an outsider, would not be able to do such a thing as digging up people's graves. He wanted to confirm it himself.

But after all, digging a grave is a big task, so it has to be done by the family members.

The rules of tomb robbing are that you can only touch property, not human remains, and you also have to kowtow to the person several times according to the rules.

If there really is a small corpse in the tomb, I'm afraid the daughter-in-law is not the princess's child.

But it doesn't matter. Until this matter is investigated thoroughly, it will always be a concern for my daughter-in-law. If it is really not the princess's child, it will be fine to return it to its original owner. Anyway, the space has now become one with my daughter-in-law.

Find out, no matter what the result is, they will accept it.

No matter whether his wife is a modern person or from their place, she is his only wife.

After hearing Shen Yuan's words, Ye Xingzhou's body stiffened.

Yes, he could take a trip to the northwest. What if his younger sister really wasn’t dead and was rescued by someone?

if.......

If Su Wanwan is really my younger sister, it would be such a big surprise for my mother.

If not, he would go and check it out, there would be no loss, and he could even give the jade pendant back to his younger sister.

Now that the jade pendant has appeared again, we have to find out more about it.

"My brother-in-law reminded me that I would go to the northwest myself."

Ye Xingzhou has made a decision. He must do this matter personally.

He was even a little anxious and wanted to say goodbye immediately.

"Third brother, don't tell Auntie about this for now. She's not in good health. It would be bad if she gets too excited and faints again."

Su Wanwan immediately reminded him.

"Yes, let's wait until we find out the truth before we make a decision, so that my mother-in-law won't be disappointed."

Shen Yuan also agreed.

Ye Xingzhou nodded. He knew this.

He, a healthy man, almost fainted when he knew about this, let alone his mother.

What if my mother firmly believed that Wanwan was my younger sister, and in the end found out that she was not, and if my younger sister's body was still there and her tomb was robbed, she would be even more heartbroken.

"I know. I'll take the child there first. I'll trouble you to take care of my mother during this time."

Ye Xingzhou bowed.

Before leaving, he suddenly turned back, touched the jade pendant in his hand, and looked at Su Wanwan deeply:

"Thank you for telling me this, and thank you for giving me the jade pendant. Even if it was stolen from a tomb, I won't blame you, because it wasn't you who stole it."

"No matter what the outcome is, you are still my sister, my real sister."

After saying this, he put away the jade pendant, wiped away all the emotions in his heart, and smiled.

"Yuer, Yunyi, come on, I'll take you to find grandma."

Ye Xingzhou took the children away. Su Wanwan stood at the door and watched for a long time, and suddenly the corners of her mouth twitched.

"The princess's family seems to be nice people. If they are really my relatives, I won't reject them."

He was actually afraid that she would have psychological burden and said those words.

"With what he said, you are their relative."

Shen Yuan also walked up and hugged her.

"So do you think they are real relatives or fake relatives?"

Su Wanwan looked up.

Shen Yuan pinched her nose.

"Is there a difference?"

Su Wanwan pinched back:

"Of course there is a difference. If I were really Ye Xingwan, I would have a mother, dear mother!"

Thinking of the princess's loving gaze, Su Wanwan felt that it was really nice to have such a mother.

Also, she must have been a great mother.

Good thing she wasn't abandoned on purpose.

This has not been confirmed yet, but Su Wanwan is actually looking forward to it.

"I spent a lot of effort to get you an identity, but I don't think it will be useful. Third Brother will probably just check the graves to see if there are any bones inside. This alone will tell you whether you are Ye Xingwan. I don't think he will investigate your situation in the village anymore."

It's not easy to find a family with the surname Su that meets the requirements.

"We didn't expect that the child who died young would have a grave. Moreover, even if there is no body in the grave, we can't be sure that I am the child. We might even go to check."

However, Su Wanwan felt that this was not necessarily the case. She heard that aristocratic families placed the most emphasis on blood ties, and without a corpse, it was impossible to say that she was Ye Wanxing based on the jade pendant.

Shen Yuan smiled gently:

"Then let's make a bet? I bet he won't check. As long as there's no body, he will immediately be sure that you are Ye Xingwan. The jade pendant and age are all right. If it were me, I wouldn't check either. I would have already identified you anyway."

Su Wanwan: .....

So confident, well, she'll just admit defeat.

Ye Xingzhou brought the children back to the manor and immediately went to see his mother. He left first on the pretext that he had sudden official business.

This place is not too far from the northwest. If he rides at full speed, he should be able to arrive in seven or eight days.

If we calculate the time this way, I can get back before the New Year.

At the same time, he wrote another letter to his eldest uncle, the Duke of Zhenguo, explaining the situation here. Of course, he did not mention Su Wanwan's matter. He only said that the child had been recognized and the mother was in good health. He also asked his uncle to ask for a few more days of leave for him, as he might not be able to return to Beijing before the New Year.

When Princess Yun Ran saw her two grandchildren, she no longer cared where her son was going and let him go without asking any questions.
