After dinner, Jiang Tan was pulled into the living room by her family. One of her hands was held by Grandma Jiang, and the other hand was held by Mother Jiang. Father Jiang was also sitting in front of her. Surrounded by the loving eyes of the three people, she moved her butt uncomfortably.

"Tan'er, where have you lived all these years? Have you suffered any hardship? Are you living well?" Grandma Jiang couldn't help but ask, her eyes turning red.

Jiang's father and mother also looked at her with pity.

Jiang Tan withdrew his hand somewhat uncomfortably, only to find that both of them were holding their hands tightly, so he had no choice but to let them hold their hands.

"It's fine. I've been practicing Taoism in the mountains with my old...old master these years, and I'm living a good life." Jiang Tan almost called him "old man". He really felt that he was living a comfortable life in the mountains. Although the mountain gate was a little poor, there were so many natural treasures. The food was different every day. Although the taste was a little unpalatable, it was nutritious. I have been in good health these years, and I enjoy everything I eat!

But when they heard her say that, the two sentimental women of the Jiang family became teary-eyed. They should have been living a life of luxury since childhood, but because of those reasons, they could only live a hard life alone in the mountains. How did such a young child grow up over the years when he had never had a sip of their milk?

Jiang Tan touched his nose in confusion. He didn't know why their eyes were red. It made him look like Xue Baochai, who had been waiting in the cold kiln for eighteen years.

"Looking at what my sister is wearing, I can tell that she must have lived a very hard life these years. Come upstairs with me later. I have a lot of beautiful clothes that my mother specially customized for me. See what she likes and give them to her." Jiang Qin showed a distressed expression. Although she said that she felt distressed, her eyes were full of disgust. She looked at Jiang Tan's tattered Taoist robe calmly.

Jiang Tan glanced at Jiang Qin with a half-smile, but before she could say anything, Jiang's mother said, "Qinqin, no need. I ordered a few clothes for Tan Tan on my way back. I asked Tiansheng to pick them up this morning. They should be here soon."

Then she turned her head and looked at Jiang Tan and said, "Mom doesn't know your figure, so I bought you some large, medium and small sizes. When I'm free in the next two days, I'll take you shopping. When I found out I was giving birth to a daughter, I thought that I must dress my daughter up like a little princess in the future, but..." As she spoke, she choked up again.

Jiang Tan looked at his mother, who looked the same as his mother in his previous life, and his heart softened. He couldn't help but comfort her, "Well, although I have been in the mountains for these years, the master has never treated me harshly in terms of food, clothing and daily expenses. Just wear clothes that keep you warm and comfortable."

Anyway, there is no one to watch you when you are in the mountains, so it is useless to wear nice clothes. The old man said that this Taoist robe is made of some kind of horse cotton, but she has never heard of it. She only knows that pure cotton is comfortable, soft, skin-friendly, and keeps warm in winter, which is very practical.

"Sister, you've been living in the mountains for all these years. Have you never been to school? Can you read?" Jiang Qin's eyes flickered as she asked softly, as if she was afraid that she would speak too loudly and embarrass Jiang Tan.

"Should we find a tutor for my sister, and ask Uncle Wang to get her a foreign diploma? Didn't you say on the plane that you would hold a banquet in two days to introduce my sister to everyone? If people knew that my sister had never been to school and couldn't read, would they look down on her?"

Jiang Qin looked at her mother with a worried look on her face: "Mom, you know that none of those second-generation people are easy to deal with. Although they eat, drink, play and have fun without any learning, they also have their own set of contempt chains. I'm afraid that my sister will be wronged when the time comes."

When Jiang's father heard this, he was immediately displeased. His eyebrows stood up and he said angrily: "Whoever dares to bully my daughter, Jiang Zhaohui, I will make them pay for it!"

Grandma Jiang also nodded and agreed, "Yes, if anyone dares to look down on my good daughter, we will destroy their family."

Seeing the whole family defending this woman who appeared out of nowhere, Jiang Qin clenched his hands hanging on the sofa into fists, his long nails digging into the flesh, leaving a bloody mark.

Lu Changan, who had been silent, calmly held Jiang Qin's hand, then pried her clenched fist open bit by bit with heartache.

"Dad, the group is short of funds recently, and it is not advisable to have conflicts with other families, and..." Lu Changan glanced at Jiang Tan indifferently, "In order to reassure the shareholders, do you want to do a paternity test with Jiang Tan first?" Although he is Jiang Zhaohui's godson, his own father died to save Jiang Zhaohui. The Jiang couple have always treated him as their own son over the years.

Jiang Zhaohui raised his eyebrows and slammed his hand on the table: "I'm not afraid of them. If they dare to touch my daughter, I won't let them go."

Jiang Tan looked at Jiang's father in surprise. Jiang's father in this life had an even more violent temper than his father in the previous life.

Lu Changan loosened his grip on Jiang Qin's hand, clenched his fist and coughed lightly, "Although you are not afraid of them, this is just a procedure, so that Jiang Tan's return can be justified."

Jiang Tan coughed lightly, and when everyone looked at him, he smiled and said, "Excuse me, although I have never been to school, I am not illiterate. I usually learn Taoism from my master and attend classes with my fellow apprentices, so I have never neglected my studies. As for the personal appraisal, there is no rush for that."

She still has no idea what is going on. The old man hasn't revealed anything in all these years. She doesn't want to admit it until she finds out!

"Sister, are you afraid of having your blood drawn? It's okay, Uncle Chen's medical skills are very good, and the acupuncture doesn't hurt at all. I have been most afraid of pain since I was a child. Every time I was sick, my mother asked Uncle Chen to give me an injection, and I really didn't feel anything at all." Jiang Qin seemed to be afraid that Jiang Tan would be afraid of pain, and she comforted her in a soft voice. There was indeed a hint of strangeness in her eyes, but her words were quite meaningful, guiding everyone that Jiang Tan's origins were unknown and he was afraid of doing a paternity test.

Jiang Tan glanced at Jiang Qin with amusement. The old man had calculated for her since she was a child. She had no brothers or sisters in this life. She was definitely an only child. He also said that she was destined to have no relatives to rely on. If the old man had not spent half his life to change her fate, she would have died alone in this life.

However, Jiang Tan was very suspicious that this was an excuse the old man made up because he was afraid that she would run away in the future and would not be able to support him with peace of mind!

So, what's the situation with this extra sister? However, looking at the attitude of the whole family, only Jiang's mother and Lu Chang'an really care about Jiang Qin, while the attitudes of Mrs. Jiang and Jiang's father are a bit lukewarm.

"Sister, you misunderstood. Although I am not talented, I have learned a lot from my master in the mountains over the years. Yesterday, when I got off the car, I found a black gas spreading from grandma's room. I am afraid that grandma is not feeling well recently. It is not because of health problems, but for other reasons. If it is convenient, I would like to go to grandma's room to take a look."

Hearing her say this, everyone was a little surprised. Jiang Qin couldn't help but chuckled: "Sister, what did you learn in the mountains? Did you learn those tricks from those monks and Taoists? Grandma has been in poor health recently, sister, please don't make fun of her."
