My Mysterious Doctor and Blessed Little Wife Is Such a Tease

Chapter 1044 Showdown

The next day, the entire Han family left home for the Mu residence.

It was breakfast time. Mu Tianzheng, unaware of Han Shi's real identity as a member of the Han family, was enjoying a harmonious meal with Han Dazhu and his family.

"What's all this about?" Mu Tianzheng squinted his eyes, looking towards Han Cang with confusion.

"Old Mu, I'm here to acknowledge my kin. I've mentioned to you years ago that a branch of our Han family had been lost…" Han Cang began, and it didn't take long for Mu Tianzheng to understand. He turned, shocked, towards Han Dazhu and his family.

This matter was known only to Han Dazhu, Han Shi, Luo Xiujuan, and Qin Xi. The rest of the Han family, still in the dark, looked bewilderedly at their father/grandfather.

"Brother Han, is what he's saying true?" Mu Tianzheng asked Han Dazhu in astonishment.

Han Dazhu replied somewhat sheepishly, "Yes, Xi said so."

Mu Tianzheng then turned to Qin Xi, seeking confirmation.

Swallowing her food, Qin Xi spoke, "Grandpa, there's no point in hiding it. Grandfather and Elder Han are indeed blood relatives. We found out about this last year. The reason we haven't acknowledged each other is simple – we were afraid the Han family was rich and wouldn't acknowledge Stone. But as it turns out, Elder Han isn't that kind of person, so Stone and I are reassured."

Han Cang said with a deep sigh, "Old Mu, it's my oversight. I should have realized this years ago. If not for some people deliberately preventing me from finding Han Shi, our family would have reunited long ago."

"Are you referring to them?" Mu Tianzheng's question pointed towards the illegitimate branch of the family.

Han Cang was angry and guilty. "Not only did these crazy people harm Guohua, but they also harmed the child in Xiujuan's stomach. What's worse is that they don't know how to repent. Last year, they even looked for Xi and caused her trouble. Xi didn't agree, so they wanted to smash Xi's shop. It's my fault. If I had been smarter, Guohua wouldn't have…"

He covered his face with his hands, choking up, unable to continue.

Han Shuangshuang had thought her grandfather brought the family to the Mu residence because of the disturbance she caused at the previous day's banquet and that they wanted her to apologize. But what she heard was like a bolt from the blue.

The person she intended to harm was her own cousin-in-law?

If her grandpa found out, wouldn't he skin her alive?

"Alright, this is all in the past. Some things are destined by the heavens. Since it's in the past, let it go. We agree to acknowledge our ancestors, but…"

Han Dazhu saw that Han Cang's lips were trembling with excitement. He changed the topic and said, "However, we will only acknowledge our ancestors and will not live in the capital. Don't ask us to stay. This is my greatest concession. As for the other children, you can ask them if they want to stay. I have no objections if they want to stay. I'm already at this age. I don't want to leave my hometown, my wife, or my son and grandson."

Hearing this, Han Cang didn't know what to say. But Han Dazhu's willingness to recognize his ancestry fulfilled their deceased grandfather's wish.

Moreover, Han Dazhu had also said that he would not stop them if the young ones wanted to stay in the capital. Therefore, he could not wait to look at Han Shi and the other Han family members.

Han Shi pretended not to see it and continued to pick fish bones for Qin Xi. He was so serious that it was as if he was discussing a project worth hundreds of millions. Han Shuangshuang looked at him in disdain.

Especially when she saw how loving the couple was, she felt inexplicably envious.

As if sensing her gaze, Qin Xi raised her eyelids and stared at her indifferently. An invisible pressure instantly pressed down her, scaring Han Shuangshuang so much that she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look again.
