Pei You’an came out of the bathroom. As he wiped the water off his hands with a tissue, he asked, “Dad, Mom, when are Brother and Sister-in-law coming back?”
Just as he finished asking, Pei You’an looked up and saw Pei Jingzhou standing not far away.
“Brother!” Pei You’an walked over quickly. “I only went to the bathroom for a
while and you guys came back. Where’s Sister-in-law?
Pei Jingzhou raised his chin slightly and gestured to the left.
Pei You’an turned around and looked over. At this moment, his sister-in-law was sitting and chatting with his mother.
It had been a while since they last met. Pei You’an even missed Li Xiwu’s culinary skills. If not for the fact that time was tight for revision and he did not have much time to come back, he would have gone to the small courtyard with a lot of delicious food every week.
Pei You’an strode over. After taking a step, Pei You’an realized that he seemed to have overlooked something. He turned around and craned his neck to look behind his brother, trying to see the person he had ignored.
Pei Jingzhou smiled and asked, “What are you looking at?”
At this angle, Pei Jingzhou’s side was just enough to block Youyou’s figure who had stepped on the stool and looked at the goldfish. Therefore, Pei You’an could barely see the corner of a light yellow down jacket. It was clearly a girl’s clothes.
Sister-in-law was sitting over there. Who was the girl beside his brother?
Pei You’an said suspiciously, “Brother, why do I feel like there’s someone beside you?
Pei Jingzhou said, “There is someone.”
Pei You’an turned back. “Who is it?”
Just as he finished speaking, Youyou poked her head out from beside Pei Jingzhou and looked at Pei You’an curiously. Their eyes met. Pei You’an had the biggest reaction. His eyes widened. “Wow, Brother, who is she?”
Pei Jingzhou introduced, “Your niece.”
Pei You’an’s eyes widened again. “Did I hear wrongly?!”
Han Qianye walked over and said, “Of course you didn’t hear wrongly. Let’s get to know each other. Pei Youyou, your biological niece.”
She had heard from Li Xiwu that Youyou did not have an official name yet. Then she would call her Pei Youyou first. It was nice.
Pei You’an swallowed hard and realized something. “No wonder you and Dad came to Lake Lu today and agreed to let me follow you. So that’s what happened.”
Han Qianye smiled. “That’s right.”
After knowing that the little girl was his niece, Pei You’an went forward enthusiastically and said to Youyou, “No matter where you used to live, since my brother and sister-in-law brought you back and changed your surname to Pei, you’re my biological niece from now on.”
With that, Pei You’an reached out to hug Youyou.
Youyou hugged Pei Jingzhou’s arm tightly and shook her head. “No.”
Pei You’an was very disappointed. “It’s our first time meeting. Can’t we even hug? I’m your Uncle.”
Youyou shook her head firmly. “No, no, no.”
Pei You’an:
He had been rejected so decisively. Although he was disappointed, Pei You’an understood. Children were shy. It was normal. He turned to look at Pei Jingzhou and asked, “Brother, where did you bring her back? From a welfare home?
Just as he finished speaking, Pei You’an received a blow to the back of his head. He raised his hand and covered the back of his head in pain. He turned to look at the person who had knocked his head. “Mom, why did you hit me?
Han Qianye reminded her, “I already said that she’s your biological niece, not brought here by the welfare institute.”
Pei You’an’s expression was filled with disbelief. “How is this possible…?” “Why not!?” Pei Jingzhou’s voice came from behind.
Pei You’an and Pei Jingzhou looked at each other for a few seconds before falling silent. His brother didn’t look like he was joking. Of course, he didn’t believe his brother made such a joke. Could he have accidentally stepped into a parallel universe?
At this moment, Li Xiwu walked over. When Pei You’an saw Li Xiwu, his eyes lit up. He jumped to Li Xiwu’s side. “Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, what’s going on? I feel that the last time we met was only a month ago. Why did you and my brother’s child become so old in the blink of an eye?
Li Xiwu suppressed a smile. “Her name is Youyou. She’s the daughter your brother and I gave birth to four years ago. We also have a son. His name is
Yaoyao. He’s the same age as Youyou. They’re twins, but Yaoyao hasn’t been here recently. You’ll see him soon.”
After listening to Li Xiwu,
Pei You’an froze on the spot. Having a daughter had been shocking enough for a hundred years, but he had yet to digest this fact. Sister-in-law had told him that there was a nephew!!! Could it be that he had really accidentally stepped into a parallel universe?
Li Xiwu raised her hand and gently patted Pei You’an’s arm. “It’s a long story. We’ll talk about it during dinner later. But don’t be too surprised. It’s just something that happened in the past.”
Pei You’an nodded.
It seemed to be true.
Pei You’an could not be blamed for being in a daze. He had been locked up in school for nearly a month. When he came out, he knew that his nephew and niece were already four years old. If he was not in a daze, who would be?!
The food ordered by Qionglou came quickly.
The table was full. The house at Lake Lu was rarely as lively as tonight. In Han Qianye’s words, “After we get Yaoyao back, we’ll call Pei Jiao over. It’s less than a month before the new year. This year will be more lively than any year in the past.”
Everyone present could imagine the scene Han Qianye mentioned. That scene would be very lively.
In the dining room, Li Xiwu and Pei Jingzhou told them about the process of bringing Youyou back and also about Yaoyao’s current treatment. Knowing that Yaoyao’s first day of treatment was very successful, Han Qianye heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, she took advantage of tonight to tell Li Xiwu and Pei Jingzhou something. “When I first saw Yaoyao, I was very shocked. This child actually looked so similar to Jingzhou when he was young. Later on, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, so I took the initiative to do a DNA test on Yaoyao and Jingzhou.”
Only Han Qianye and Pei Qingji knew about this.
Therefore, after Han Qianye said these words, Li Xiwu was indeed very surprised. However, she was not surprised that Han Qianye thought that Yaoyao looked like Pei Jingzhou when he was young. She had heard Pei Jingzhou mention this before and wanted to go to the old residence to take a look at Pei Jingzhou’s childhood photos, but she did not see them.
Later, she didn’t take it seriously. What surprised her now was that Han Qianye had actually done a DNA paternity test on Pei Jingzhou and Yaoyao.
“I know about this,” Pei Jingzhou said slowly.
Pei Jingzhou recalled that his mother had taken Yaoyao and his hair for a paternity test. At that time, he had not taken it seriously.
Li Xiwu turned to look at Pei Jingzhou. “When did you know?”
Pei Jingzhou said, “The day I first met Yaoyao, Mom was also in the hospital. You came together. Later, Yaoyao met me. When Mom saw me hugging
Yaoyao, she looked very surprised) but I didn’t take it seriously at that time.”
Li Xiwu immediately understood. “It’s normal that you didn’t take it seriously.
How could you think of a boy you met by chance as your own child?”
Pei Jingzhou nodded. “Indeed, I didn’t take it seriously. I wasn’t curious about the results of Mom’s paternity test and missed the truth.”
Han Qianye continued blaming herself, “This is my fault.”
Pei You’an only cared about listening and did not participate in these topics. While listening, his hands did not stay idle. He peeled prawns for Youyou, picked fish bones for Youyou, picked up food for Youyou, and made her like him more.
When Han Qianye heard Youyou’s laughter, she turned to look at Youyou, who was beaming with joy from You’an’s coaxing. Unknowingly, she was also happy.
She continued, “At that time, I didn’t know Xixi’s identity, so I naturally didn’t think that Yaoyao was born from Xixi and Jingzhou, so I didn’t dare to tell Jingzhou the results of the DNA. I just wanted to find out who Jingzhou gave birth to Yaoyao with.”
At this point, Han Qianye looked up at Li Xiwu. “It wasn’t until I found out about your background and knew that you were Li You that I placed my suspicions on you. I guessed that Yaoyao was born in Country T with you and Jingzhou back then. However, everything has to be decided by the outcome, so it dragged on until now..”
