Not only He Ziqin, but the moment people in the hall saw Chu Xilian, they were also quite surprised.
Because of the incident back then, everyone knew that the Chu and He families were not very harmonious. Although they were still considered as old in terms of face, they didn’t like each other in private.
Especially the heads of the two families, He Ziqin and Chu Xilian, were even more incompatible and were competing with each other. They rarely had any contact on weekdays, let alone such birthdays. Therefore, Chu Xilian appeared at the banquet at this time, which was inevitably surprising.
"What, can't I celebrate Mrs. He's birthday?" Chu Xilian said with a smile.
"Sorry, what we invited today is our relatives. Outsiders will not be welcomed, please come back!" He Ziqin looked at Chu Xilian and said coldly.
"Zi Qin!"
Mr. He scolded He Ziqin in a deep voice, "The person who came is a guest. Since he has come, how can he drive him out? Xilian, come here to sit here!"
"It's still my uncle who is reasonable. I haven't seen you for several years. You are still gray-haired and verdant, and you are still stronger!"
Chu Xilian smiled and bowed, then smiled at Mrs. He and said, "Auntie, I wish you a hundred years of life and a long life! I have specially put in the effort to prepare a big gift for you."
"You're welcome, Xilian, I'm very happy if you can come." Mrs. He has also seen the world. Although she guessed that Chu Xilian was not good at coming, she still smiled and spoke without missing a word.
"Jiarong, why don't you send Yu Ruyi to the old lady!"
Chu Xilian straightened his body and turned his head to glance at Lin Yu behind him.
Lin Yu was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Chu Xilian to ask him to send him over.
"Go." Chu Yunxi handed the mahogany box in his hand to Lin Yu and winked at him.
Lin Yu glanced at Chu Xilian, with a little more complicated look in his eyes. After hesitating, he took the brocade box and walked towards Mrs. He.
Everyone suddenly felt a commotion after seeing Lin Yu's face, especially some people who were familiar with He Zizhen, who were all surprised. This young man looked so similar to He Erye when he was young!
As soon as Chu Xilian came in, everyone was paying attention to him and did not notice Lin Yu. Now Chu Xilian asked Lin Yu to come and give Yu Ruyi to Mrs. He, which obviously attracted everyone's attention to Lin Yu.
When He Ziqin and He Ziheng saw Lin Yu, they were both shocked. They also felt that Lin Yu looked very similar to the second child when he was young, and they were simply carved from the same mold. They were stunned for a moment and were a little at a loss.
Not to mention Mr. He and Mrs. He, the two old men looked at Lin Yu without blinking, as if they saw He Zizhen slowly walking towards him when he was young.
Facing everyone's amazing gaze, Lin Yu's face was as plain as water, his steps were neither too fast nor too slow, and extremely steady. In fact, he had expected this day long ago. After all, the one who looked like him was the famous He family, the second master of the capital.
When he walked to Mrs. He, Lin Yu bowed gently, and handed the brocade box to the old lady with both hands, and said in a calm voice: "Grandma, I wish you good luck and all the best!"
Mrs. He had no intention of answering the conversation. Her lips trembled slightly, and she looked at Lin Yu without blinking. Tears faintly appeared in her eyes. If the grandson she loved the most was still alive, she should be at this age and should be like this.
"Old grandma."
Lin Yu called her softly again, and then placed Yu Ruyi on the table in front of her.
"Jiarong, just give the gifts. I won't drink the wine. Let's go."
At this time, Chu Xilian shouted with a smile on his face, feeling very satisfied. He was very satisfied with everyone's expressions!
Today he brought Lin Yu, and this is what he wanted.
Lin Yu turned around and looked at Chu Xilian, then turned around and wanted to leave.
"child!"
Mrs. He suddenly grabbed Lin Yu's hand and said tremblingly: "Child, how old are you this year? What's your name? Where are your parents?"
She couldn't help but ask several questions in a series of questions, and a family affection that was thicker than water surged into her heart, as if she had already regarded Lin Yu in front of her as the grandson she had missed day and night.
"I……"
"Mom, you ask me what I do!"
Lin Yu was about to speak, but He Ziqin suddenly shouted, "He is from the Chu family, it has nothing to do with our family, let others leave!"
The meaning of He Ziqin's words is obviously to point out to everyone that although Lin Yu looks like his second brother, he is not from their He family, so everyone should not think too much.
"Director He, what you said is really wrong. Although this child is not necessarily from your He family, you were definitely a family eight hundred years ago because his surname is He."
Chu Xilian said with a smile on his back, with a hint of splendor in his eyes.
As soon as he said this, the whole hall suddenly became an uproar. The young man had a surname, He! With this similarity in appearance, he said that he had nothing to do with the second master of the He family, who would believe it!
Although they knew that the only son of the Second Master of the He family was dead, it was not ruled out that the possibility of having an illegitimate child was not ruled out. It is normal for people of the Second Master of the He family to have three or two women outside.
But Xiao Manru didn't think so. She knew best what kind of person her husband was. In this life, except her, her husband would never have a second woman!
So this child cannot be the blood of her and He Zizhen!
However, she really couldn't understand why this child looked so similar to her husband that after seeing He Jiarong, she couldn't help but think of her son who had been dead for nearly twenty years.
After hearing that Lin Yu's surname was He, a light flashed in his eyes, and a hint of hope suddenly ignited in his heart. He held Lin Yu's hand and added some force, and hurriedly said: "Child, don't listen to them, tell grandma, what's your name?"
Over the years, the entire He family has not believed that her grandson died, and to be more precise, she is unwilling to believe.
"Grandma, my name is He Jiarong. I am from Qinghai. I have no father or mother since I was a child, and I was adopted." Lin Yu replied truthfully. Looking at the kindness in Mrs. He's eyes, his heart suddenly felt extremely soft. When he was very young, when his grandma looked at him, she also had this kind of look. It's a pity that my grandma had passed away for a long time.
Qinghai?
No father or mother?
After hearing these two words, Mrs. He trembled suddenly, her hands trembled continuously, holding Lin Yu's hand and walked up again, fearing that Lin Yu would disappear out of thin air if she accidentally saw her.
She hasn't been to Qinghai for twenty years, twenty years! But she has never forgotten this place in a day!
Even though Qinghai has many old friends with her and her husband, she has never been involved in it since her grandson died, because even if she only hears the word "Qinghai", she will be heartbroken.
"Jinrong, you are Jinrong!"
Mrs. He's tears fell down her face. This child must be Jinrong, and must be his grandson. Otherwise, everything would not be so coincidental! Even the name is only one word short!
He Jinrong?!
Lin Yu was also shocked. The name of the second young master of the He family was only one word different from that of He Jiarong! Is it really just a coincidence?!
"Mom! He is not Jinrong, Jinrong has long been dead!"
He Ziqin was anxious when he saw this scene and shouted at his mother.
"No, he is Jinrong, it is my Jinrong!"
Mrs. He pulled Lin Yu in front of her, then pulled Lin Yu with one hand and touched Lin Yu's face with the other hand.
Lin Yu bowed and looked at the old man who was crying like rain, and felt extremely sad. It seemed that the old man loved his second grandson very much.
"Old woman, stop messing around, scare other people's children!" He Qingwu quickly reached out and grabbed his wife. His eyes looked at Lin Yu were very complicated, and his heart was mixed.
The old woman misses her grandson, but he doesn't want to do it, but her grandson has already died twenty years ago!
"Yes, mom, you scared me."
He Ziqin walked over quickly, pulled Lin Yu's arm away, then pulled out a tissue, knelt in front of his mother, wiped his tears, and said gently: "Mom, we all know that you miss Jinrong, but Jinrong is dead, you can't deceive yourself."
Lin Yu frowned and looked at He Ziqin on the ground, rubbed his arm that was hurt by him, and felt a little unhappy. Not to mention, Director He is really strong, it seems that he can make a few moves.
"Sir Chu, please take your people away quickly. Today is a festive day. You are so good. I don't know where I got a wild child and made my mother cry!"
At this time, Mrs. He's eldest daughter also stood up and scolded Chu Xilian coldly, glanced at Lin Yu with disgust, then walked to her mother and comforted her softly.
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in making the old lady unhappy, but I'm also kind-hearted. This child is from Qinghai, with no father or mother. He was adopted twenty years ago, and his surname is He. He looks so similar to the second master. The second master's son died twenty years ago. How could such a coincidence happen in the world?"
Chu Xilian said with a smile: "The most important thing is that the child who died back then had his face and skin soaked. Who knows if he was the second young master? Maybe someone was looking for a scapegoat..."
"shut up!"
He Ziqin suddenly stood up and interrupted Chu Xilian angrily. The blue veins on his forehead swelled up. He pointed at Chu Xilian and said angrily: "Chu Xilian, if you dare to irritate your mother here again, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
"Okay, okay, it's me wrong. I shouldn't have said so directly, but what I'm telling is the truth. If the old lady and the old man want us to leave, I will take the child away immediately and promise that he will never step into the He family again!"
After saying that, Chu Xilian turned around and looked at Mr. He and Mrs. He, and waited for their reply with a smile.
"Grandpa, let them get out!"
At this time, He Ziqin's eldest daughter He Yanyan suddenly said coldly: "My second brother is dead. The forensic doctor has tested the corpse at that time. People cannot be resurrected by death. You must accept this reality. Those who look like our family are all from our family! There are so many people who look like us in the world. If you let him make trouble here, you will not know how many wild cats and dogs will come over to find the He family to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors!"
