Wang looked at Su Qing's dress and nodded with satisfaction. She was wearing a light blue silk short coat and a white gauze skirt embroidered with blue petals. She used a white belt to hold her slender waist. Her black hair was tied into two buns, with a plum-sized pearl flower inserted on one side. Although simple, it exuded a fresh and elegant taste.

"This one is the best, it's really beautiful." Wang slowly put a pair of jade bracelets with bright colors, fine texture and excellent water content on Su Qing's wrists.

Su Qing looked at the two bracelets with almost the same patterns. They were obviously old items, with a soft luster in the roundness. In her previous life, she had accompanied a cousin from a very wealthy family to choose wedding supplies. At that time, the cousin spent more than 100,000 yuan to buy a bracelet. She listened in detail to the clerk's introduction on how to distinguish the authenticity.

There was no technology in ancient times to make fakes. Looking at these two bracelets, I wonder how many times better they are than the one my cousin has. If I could take them back, would I be able to just lie down and relax?

"Let's go, everyone is waiting." Wang took Su Qing's hand and went to Songhe Garden together.

The main hall of Songhe Garden was filled with members of the Meng family. Meng Changyuan and Song sat at the top, drinking tea without saying anything. The people below felt the tense and depressing atmosphere, as if they could hear a pin drop.

Meng Juan looked up from time to time at Meng Qi, who was still under house arrest but also appeared here. In less than ten days, Meng Qi looked much more haggard, perhaps because she had been locked up in the house in the summer, her face was pale, and she looked in good spirits. She looked around, as if she didn't see Wang Shi lowering her head in displeasure.

Humph, Meng Juan was disdainful in her heart, thinking that the news from there would arrive in a few days. Haha, thinking of the colorful faces of Wang and Meng Qi when they heard the news, Meng Juan wanted to laugh out loud.

Every time my father implemented his plan, he was one step closer to the position of the Crown Prince. So what if he had two legitimate brothers, they looked like they had no future. If it weren't for his father, this family would have had a harder time in the capital.

This depressing atmosphere was broken when the servants shouted, "The Crown Prince's wife is here."

Everyone looked towards the door, and even the maid who was fanning her masters stopped what she was doing.

Wang was dressed very elegantly today, in an apricot-colored gauze dress and a Xiang skirt of the same color. These were colors she rarely wore before. In fact, ever since her eldest daughter left, Wang tended to wear dark colors, making herself look old-fashioned.

Such a Wang was eye-catching, especially to Meng Yuan, who seemed to see the little girl who had married him at the beginning.

But before everyone could recover from Wang's astonishment, Su Qing followed Wang in. Everyone could hear gasps when they saw Su Qing dressed as a young lady.

"Qing'er, why are you here? What's going on? Why are you dressed like this?" Meng Qi stood up and said in surprise.

Meng Changfeng glanced at her, and Meng Qi had no choice but to shut up and sit back down.

After everyone exchanged greetings, Mother Guo lifted an embroidered stool and placed it next to Su Qing. Mrs. Wang patted Su Qing's hand and motioned for her to sit down. Amid everyone's puzzled looks, Su Qing sat down with a smile on her face.

Su Qing didn't expect it to be such a big scene. Last night, Wang had taken her to meet Meng Changfeng and his wife, as well as Meng Yuan.

Song held her hand and cried heartbrokenly. If she hadn't known that the whole thing was caused by this woman, she would have thought it was a deep love between a grandparent and a grandchild.

Of course, Meng Changfeng's eyes were also wet, and he said many words to make her feel wronged, saying that it was not too late, and that he would let her make up for the hard work of more than ten years, and asked her not to worry, and so on, which were some coaxing words.

When she bowed to Meng Yuan and called him father, Meng Yuan was a little at a loss at first, then he rubbed his hands, looked her up and down, and directly took out two hundred taels of silver from his pocket and gave it to her, asking her to buy flowers to wear.

Su Qing originally thought that he had met the elders yesterday, and that he would meet the others when the ancestral hall was opened, but he did not expect Wang to arrange such a scene. He just didn't know what conditions Wang had used to get this.

According to her original idea, Meng Changfeng would not be happy to restore her identity no matter what she considered, and letting Wang Shi recognize her as an adopted daughter was the best result she could think of. But obviously, she underestimated Wang Shi's ability and her guilt and love for her eldest daughter.

Just as everyone was thinking about their own little thoughts and making random guesses, Meng Changfeng spoke quietly, "I called everyone together today because I have something very important to announce."

Mother Wu waved her hand, and all the maids and servants in the room retreated, leaving only her standing at the door, looking respectful.

Everyone turned their eyes to Meng Changfeng and listened to the incredible words coming out of his mouth word by word.

"Back then, the late nun of Xiangyun Temple had read Sister Wan's fate, and it was a rough life. She would be sent to the nunnery for foster care before she turned sixteen. And the fewer people who knew about it, the better. Her biological parents couldn't be told either. After discussing it with my wife, I came up with a method similar to what we did back then. We deliberately created that accident so that everyone would think that Sister Wan was gone, including the eldest brother and his wife."

Liu covered her mouth with a cry, and quickly lowered her head when she saw Meng Hao looking at her with dissatisfaction, but she glanced at Wang with the side of her eyes. This, is this a trick?

"Now sixteen years have passed. I told the eldest brother and his wife about this some time ago. Although hiding it for so many years made them sad, it was worth it in exchange for Sister Wan's safety. According to Master Fang Zhi's suggestion, we will open the ancestral hall tomorrow and report the situation to our ancestors first. Then the eldest brother and his family will go to Puji Temple, and Master Fang Zhi will take care of the follow-up, and Sister Wan can come back."

After Meng Changfeng finished speaking, he waved at Su Qing. Su Qing stood up from the stool, walked to Meng Changfeng, bowed, and said, "Greetings to Grandfather."

"Okay, come on, this is our Meng family's second young lady, the eldest daughter of the first house, Meng Wan. Many people have only seen her when they were children, so I'm afraid I've forgotten what she looks like. It doesn't matter, we're back home this time, and we'll have a long time to spend together, so it's only right to be as close as possible."

After saying that, she nodded to Song, who stood up, took Su Qing's hand and introduced everyone in the room to her one by one.

They had all met before, some had scolded her, some had even pointed at her head and called her a fool, but now they all wisely chose to greet each other as if they were meeting for the first time.

Liu and Liu also gave gifts, and the sisters-in-law followed suit. When Jiang took off a ruby ​​hairpin, she looked at Su Qing's familiar eyes and felt like she was dreaming in broad daylight.

After one round, Su Qing's handkerchief was full, and Mother Wu hurried forward to take it.

Su Qing stood in the middle of the field and said with a smile, "I finally meet my relatives. For so many years, I have been looking forward to this day. Today my wish has come true, and it is worth my prayers for my relatives in the nunnery. Now that I am back in the mansion, I hope my relatives will love and advise me, so that Wan'er can get closer to everyone and not bring shame to our Huainan Marquis Mansion."

Fortunately, because the ancestral hall was about to be opened, Su Qing was afraid of having to speak, so he practiced this passage yesterday.

Meng Changfeng listened to Su Qing's orderly and unhurried words, and suddenly he began to look forward to this granddaughter who was lost and found again. Perhaps it was right to acknowledge her. Who knows when she will be able to add strength to the Meng family? He stroked his beard with satisfaction.

Wang was also very satisfied with Su Qing's performance. In her opinion, even Su Qing's hair was impeccable.

Song pulled Su Qing to her side and said, "From now on, the four young ladies of our family will be together. Although the second young lady has not been in the mansion for so many years, no one is allowed to discuss anything in private. I'm sure you all understand what I mean. Remember, you are all surnamed Meng when you go out. I don't need to say more about the principle of rising together and falling together, right?"

Everyone understood that this was asking them to shut up. Even if they could tell that Meng Wan was Su Qing, they had to keep their mouths shut and tell others that this was our second young lady.
