There are four great families in Beijing, which have been prosperous for hundreds of years. These four families are Qin, Lu, Su, and Wang. Through the efforts of generations, they have achieved their current unshakable status. Under the four great families, there are eight great families. There are many marriages between the four great families and the eight great families to consolidate the political status of each family.

The Qin and Lu clans refer to the current Qin and Lu families. Most of the two families are in the military, and the family has been passed down from generation to generation. The Su family is mainly engaged in politics. Currently, one of them holds a top position in the central government, and another is the mayor of Beijing. The Wang family is engaged in politics and business, and is involved in almost all walks of life.

This Qin Zongzhao is the current head of the Qin family. He has two sons.

The eldest son Qin Zhiyun married Fu Jiayi, the daughter of the Manchu descendant Fu family, and gave birth to the eldest son Qin Zongxuan, but she died of illness when Qin Zongxuan was three years old. A year later, Qin Zhiyun married his current wife Lin Yuying and gave birth to the second son Qin Zongyue.

The second son, Qin Zhihui, married Wang Yuxi, the daughter of the Wang family, and gave birth to the eldest daughter Qin Yaru and the second son Qin Zonghan.

They should have been the head of the four major families, but unfortunately, due to the revolution in the 1970s, they suffered a huge change and were separated from their wives and children overnight. Lin Yuying took her son Qin Zongyue away from the Qin family and returned to the Lin family. The eldest son Qin Zongxuan, who should have been sent back to the Fu family, disappeared that year. No one knew where he went or why he disappeared.

After the Qin family was rehabilitated, they sent people to search for him all over the place until four years ago...

“In fact, four years ago, we suspected that Jiang Yannan was their long-lost eldest son Qin Zongxuan. Just when we were about to tell the Qin family about this, the Qin family suddenly sent a message saying that they had found the child, the current Qin Zongxuan.

Later we suppressed the news and never mentioned it again.

Last June, your godfather went to celebrate Mr. Qin's birthday. When he was drunk, he mentioned this matter again. At that time, Mr. Qin fainted and stayed in the intensive care unit of the hospital for two days before he was released.

After he was discharged from the hospital, he never mentioned this matter again. We don’t know whether he believed our words and didn’t take it seriously, or whether he had other plans. But we really have no news about Jiang Yannan.”

Tao Yumei was talking until her mouth was dry. She picked up the teacup and took a big sip of tea, then put the cup down and sighed again.

"Godmother, what are the grounds for your conclusion that Jiang Yannan might be the missing child of the Qin family?"

Jiang Yuechu was extremely shocked. She had never thought that the person who had been dependent on her since childhood might be from Beijing, thousands of miles away.

"When we were young, the Qin family and the Su family lived in the same compound. Your second and third brothers often played with Qin Zongxuan. They saw a cinnabar mole behind his ear, and later saw it behind Jiang Yannan's ear, so they became suspicious."

Jiang Yuechu lowered her head and said nothing more. She knew that Jiang Yannan had a cinnabar mole behind his ear. When she was a child, she often laughed at him, saying that he looked like a girl with such a mole...

"To be honest, I feel very uncomfortable. I feel that Yan Nan's disappearance must be related to what we said. We talked about this matter in mid-June, and Jiang Yan Nan disappeared at the end of June. I just don't know whether this matter is related to Mr. Qin or Lin Yuying."

Tao Yumei leaned on the sofa, her face full of depression. She was feeling very angry but had no place to vent.

"What does this have to do with Lin Yuying?" Lu Lin, who was sitting nearby as if listening to a novel story, suddenly interrupted.

"That Lin Yuying, hum..." When Tao Yumei mentioned her, she felt as if she had swallowed a fly, and felt extremely disgusted. Her face was full of contempt. "She was already engaged back then, and Qin Zhiyun was also engaged to a girl from a branch of the Su family. In the end, I don't know why Lin Yuying fell in love with Qin Zhiyun. At his engagement party, she used despicable means to lie on the same bed with Qin Zhiyun in public, and was caught by everyone.

Under such circumstances, Qin Zhiyun had to break off the engagement with the Su family and marry her, and the Qin and Su families became enemies as a result.

If she was like this, she would have taken good care of her husband and children after marriage, but she had to act like a demon, saying one thing to Zongxuan in front of him and another behind his back. Qin Zhiyun and I had hinted that he should pay more attention to Zongxuan, but he said that Lin Yuying treated Qin Zongxuan as her own son and felt relieved to leave him to her. Really, I was so angry that I almost had a brain hemorrhage.

Qin Zhiyun was also a spineless man. He was framed like that, but he was still bewitched by her and gave birth to a son the following year.

No wonder people say that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Qin Zhiyun used to like Fu Jiayi and Qin Zongxuan so much, but in the end, after just one year, he forgot about them.

When something happened to the Qin family, Lin Yuying immediately stood up and distanced herself from the Qin family, and returned home with her younger son, but her older son was nowhere to be found. I think Qin Zongxuan’s disappearance is definitely related to that woman.

After the Qin family was rehabilitated, Lin Yuying ran back with her son and shed a few crocodile tears in front of Qin Zhiyun. Qin Zhiyun then forgave her and took the mother and son back.

Tell me, in this situation, who least wants Qin Zongxuan to be found?"

"That must be Lin Yuying." Lu Lin's sudden interruption startled the two people who were concentrating on thinking.

"You're going to scare your mother to death." Tao Yumei's face turned black, and she was so angry that she slapped him on the back.

Lu Lin: "..."

He felt that his mother must have practiced Shaolin Iron Sand Palm, otherwise she wouldn't be able to displace his internal organs every time.

"This Qin Zongxuan is the eldest son and grandson of the Qin family. Although he may not inherit everything of the Qin family, at least half of it will be divided out. His return will undoubtedly pose a great threat to Lin Yuying's son..."

"Also, do you know who found the current Qin Zongxuan?" Tao Yumei left Lu Lin and turned to look at Jiang Yuechu.

"It was probably Lin Yuying who found it." Lu Lin couldn't help but blurt out another sentence following his mother's words.

Tao Yumei glared at her son beside her, ignored him, and continued.

"Indeed, this Qin Zongxuan was found by Lin Yuying, and she even did a paternity test. Given the competitive relationship between Qin Zongxuan and her son, would she be so kind as to find him? Moreover, this Qin Zongxuan gets along very well with her stepmother and brother. They don't fight or compete with each other, and they just eat, drink and have fun. Only they themselves know what's going on."

"It is probably a fake one that Lin Yuying brought back to replace her."

Lu Lin came to a conclusion in an instant. He felt that this should be the truth.

"This fake one is firmly under her control, and the Qin family will not look for the real Qin Zongxuan anymore. It's really a good plan. No wonder people often say that the sting of a wasp is the most poisonous, and the heart of a woman is the most poisonous. This is absolutely true."

Tao Yumei stared at her son for a long time. She really couldn't do anything about him. She couldn't control his mouth and could only treat him as air.

"After that turmoil, the Qin family was seriously injured and gradually showed signs of decline. Qin Zhiyun was also injured and withdrew from the army. The next generation of the Qin family currently has no outstanding people. There is only one Qin Zonghan who is currently in the army, but his position is not high. It will probably take some time for them to climb to their ideal position again.

Therefore, Mr. Qin took a fancy to the Lin family's influence in the army, and tolerated Lin Yuying until now, and let Qin Zongxuan marry Lin Feixue to achieve the purpose of marriage. "

Jiang Yuechu listened to what Tao Yumei said in a daze, her mind a little confused. What four great clans, eight great families, she felt that all of these were too far away from her.

She is just an ordinary rural girl. Her only goal is to work hard to make money and live an ordinary life with the person she loves.

She had never expected that Jiang Yannan would have such a background. The children of the aristocratic families in Kyoto might inherit the family business in the future, and then integrate into the upper class society of the capital and become a part of them. At that time, their status would be very different. Their marriage partner could only be one of the four great clans or eight great families.

She also didn't want to enter this so-called upper class society. The flattery and deceit of people, the interdependence and infighting between the clans, the wickedness of human hearts, these were not the life she wanted, and she didn't want to let herself be deeply involved in it.

"Godmother..." Jiang Yuechu stared at his fingers in a daze. They were an ordinary pair of hands. Although they did not have thick calluses and dry skin, they were definitely not white, smooth, or creamy.

"What's wrong?" Tao Yumei noticed that her mood seemed a little off, and quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, Yan Nan's child will be fine, don't worry."

Jiang Yuechu smiled at her and shook his head: "I'm not worried about him. Ah Yan once sent me a note saying that he was fine, which means he should be safe now.

I just think that maybe this is God's arrangement. We are not suitable for each other, so let him leave before we get the marriage certificate. It's good this way, everything can still be saved. "

"Yue'er, don't let your imagination run wild. You are the goddaughter of the Lu family now. If Jiang Yannan really returns to the Qin family, your statuses are compatible."

"Godmother, when I graduate from college, I will go back to Lishan Town. That is my home." Jiang Yuechu stood up with a calm face and said goodbye to the two of them. "Now that you know all this, I don't have to worry about him anymore. My only goal now is to study hard and make the most of these three years.

Then I will go back first, godmother, please have a rest early."

After saying that, without waiting for them to persuade him any further, he walked straight out the door.

Tao Yumei and Lu Lin looked at each other, feeling that the development of the situation was a little different from what they expected, and it seemed a little bad. They didn't expect Jiang Yuechu to have such an attitude.
