Spring Drunk Chang'an

Chapter 284 I Want to Adopt Her as My Daughter

Facing Liu Chang'an, Song felt ashamed, guilty and in pain.

Lai had harmed her daughter. Chang'an was thrown onto the bank of the Yan River just after she was born. In such weather, a little baby would have died in ninety-nine percent of the time. It was only because God took pity on her that Qingmei picked her up and saved her.

Otherwise, Chang'an's little life would have died early.

Her biological daughter, her only daughter, would die without her knowing, and yet she would treat her enemy's daughter like a treasure and devote everything to her.

Whenever she thought of this scene, a good-tempered and gentle person like Song couldn't help but want to pull Lai out of the underworld and cut her into pieces with three thousand knives.

"Liu Qingru treated you badly in the beginning, plotting to harm you several times, and even sneaking in front of Wen Bo and Wen Rui. I'm afraid this was also Lai's scheme!"

Otherwise, Chang'an at that time was just a little maid who had just entered the mansion. Why would she be targeted by the young masters and young ladies in the mansion?

"Things that I couldn't figure out in the past, all came true today!"

Song held Liu Chang'an's arm, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat due to fear.

Liu Changan looked back at her steadily.

Since her rebirth, her only thought has been to save her family and change her fate. She initially wanted to expose the Lai family and Liu Qingru, restore order, and regain her identity, but then...

But it is getting fainter and fainter.

She even had some thoughts of going with the flow, but until now, in front of the Qiankun Hall, the emperor spoke loudly, and her life story was revealed to the world, and she and Liu Qingru returned to their respective places!

Liu Changan felt surprisingly calm in his heart.

She saw Song's tears, fear, self-blame and guilt, and while she felt distressed, she also felt a sense of relief.

"Mother, all the past events are in the past. There's no need to talk about them anymore. After all, we've been reunited and have escaped the Liu family's den of danger."

"In the future, my elder brother and I will take care of you. Let's live a good life!"

Liu Changan's almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears and his tone was sincere.

"Okay, okay, Chang'an is right. This is a huge benefit. Why are you crying? Zhilan, stop crying!" Old Lady Song said repeatedly.

"That's right. The unlucky ones today are Liu Xiu, that beast, and Liu Wenbai, that wicked son of a pervert. We're celebrating a great occasion, we should be smiling!" Song Bin reached out and patted his daughter's shoulder. "Stop looking so sad! You've ruined our happy event!"

"Let's hurry back home, open the ancestral hall, and ask for the family tree. It's the right thing to do to properly record Chang'an under your brother's name!"

"In the future, she will also be the eldest daughter of our Cheng'en Mansion and the niece of the Empress. She will be uniquely noble and no less honorable than anyone else!"

The Song family had agreed long ago to register Liu Chang'an under the name of Prince Song. This was to elevate Liu Chang'an's status and to prevent the Liu family from kidnapping him, which would cause a complicated relationship.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I really don't know how to thank you for your kindness to me and Chang'an today." Song's eyes were filled with tears as she turned to look at Prince Song, feeling extremely grateful.

Bowing deeply, she bent her knees.

He actually wanted to kneel down.

Recognizing Liu Chang'an as the eldest daughter of Duke Cheng'en is not just a simple matter of having an empty title.

In the past, the eldest daughter of the previous generation of the Duke's family was Queen Song. When she got married, her red makeup, which was ten miles long and amounted to a dowry of 188 pieces, was paraded around the city twice.

As the youngest legitimate daughter, she was not as important as Empress Song, but her dowry was more than 100,000 taels of silver.

Liu Chang'an was included in the family tree and became the daughter of Prince Song and his wife according to the etiquette, so naturally she would receive the same treatment.

You have to know that Song Bin has only one son, and Song is already a married woman. Logically speaking, after Song Bin dies, the entire Cheng'en Mansion will belong to Prince Song and his wife. If they recognize Liu Chang'an, it would be like taking money out of their own pockets.

That's real money.

Moreover, Liu Chang'an's origins—she had been a maid for over ten years, and too many people knew about this, so it was impossible to hide it. In her past life, because of this, how poorly had the Liu family treated her? How had the servants looked down on her and humiliated her? There was a precedent for this.

If the Cheng'en Mansion recognized her in this life, would no one laugh at her or gossip about her?

Totally impossible! !

The Cheng'en Mansion, Prince Song, the Prince's wife, Song Zhinian and the young Prince will all be implicated, especially Song Zhinian. She is a girl and values ​​her reputation more than boys. Having a sister who has been a maid for more than ten years is definitely not a good thing for her.

In fact, the presence of her divorced aunt, Song, had already made her marriage difficult.

Adding another one would make it even more difficult.

Even if Song Zhinian was aloof and close to the Song family and Liu Changan, she didn't care about that. But what about the Crown Prince's wife? She was just the Song family's sister-in-law, not even a blood relationship, so why would she be willing to harm her own family's interests and take on so many things?

"Sister-in-law, I have no gratitude for your kindness to me, Yu'er and Chang'an. In my next life, I will serve you like a slave and repay you for your kindness!" Song wanted to kowtow to the Crown Prince's wife.

Seeing this, the Crown Prince's wife quickly supported her and said repeatedly, "Zhilan, what are you doing? We have been together for so many years, and we are as close as sisters. Chang'an has also raised so many children in front of me. I have seen it with my own eyes and remembered it in my heart. They are also perfect children. How can I not feel distressed?"

"She is your daughter, my husband's niece, and I treat her as my own child!"

"When dealing with other people in different lives, one has to consider the pros and cons, but when dealing with one's own family, who cares about that? It's just a matter of doing whatever's best!"

"Zhilan, you met a beast like Liu Xiu, and half your life has been ruined. As a baby in Chang'an, you suffered many hardships. After I learned the truth, your brother and I were so upset that we couldn't sleep for two nights."

"My sister, my niece, was harmed like this by that bastard Liu Xiu."

"And Yu Ge'er, that poor child..."

"Yu'er is a boy. Your brother and I can't give him a family. Fortunately, he can earn his own living. But Chang'an is a girl. How can we bear not to help her?"

The Crown Prince's wife spoke from the heart.

Song was so moved that she burst into tears and was almost speechless.

Liu Changan also shed tears silently.

Song Bin, Old Lady Song and others tried to comfort them, and finally everyone stopped crying. Outside, Xiao Chuo dealt with the officials and resolved the Xu family's chaos, then accompanied the Song family back to Duke Cheng'en's Mansion.

As soon as they entered the mansion, Old Lady Song said directly: "Three days later, it will be an auspicious day, and our family can open the ancestral hall..."

Long before she went to "make trouble", she had invited the great monk from Yuantan Temple and calculated the auspicious day and time.

"This matter cannot be delayed any longer. The sooner we do it, the sooner we'll do it. Also, Zhilan, I have something to tell you. Now, take a break, wipe away your tears, and then take Chang'an to Qingmei's house to thank her properly..."
