Old Madam Yao had actually spoken to Yao Rong’s family about this matter. After hearing all about Yao Tang’s situation, they couldn’t help but feel sorry for the young woman.
How could Yao Yuan and his wife leave such a girl to fend for herself?
That night, they had finally decided to take in Yao Tang as their official daughter, if ever she were to agree. After all, from what they had seen, she was a brilliant young lady. It’s just a shame that she had no other family to lean on.
Besides, Yao Tang was already registered under their name. Now that Old Madam Yaohad made her decision, they would simply formalize said procedures.
Qin Man now wouldn’t use the “mother” card to bully Yao Tang.
Upon hearing Jiang Wan’s words, she nodded proudly. “Now that Wanwan has both a son and a daughter, she’d be able to live a happy life.”
It was obvious that the three had already ganged up on the couple.
“So, it seems that the two of you are working together!” Unable to take this anymore, Qin Man stood abruptly, clenching her hands into fists. “You just want to take the opportunity to openly make her a member of the Yao Family, right?”
Her tone was as sharp as ever.
Despite this, Jiang Wan and Yao Rongcouldn’t help but feel puzzled over her line of questioning. They felt that her sentence was a bit strange, but they just couldn’t put a finger on it.
Upon seeing her mother’s broken look, Yao Ran couldn’t help but think of something else.
However, before she could say another word, Old Madam Yao reached over to pat Yao Tang’s head. Her fingers brushed down her hair affectionately.
“Yao Yuan, I’m assuming you’ve found the right Yao Tang this time around, right?”
“Yes, we didn’t get anything wrong.” Yao Yuan slowly nodded. “Yao Tanghad simply been exchanged with Yao Ranwhat the time of her birth. Luckily, we were able to track Ranran’s biological parents down and figured out where they live.”
“We also did a paternity test. There’s no way we got this wrong.”
After he had finished speaking, Old Madam Yao shot her daughter-in-law a glare. “Look at what you’ve done, you little shrew,” she reprimanded. “Because of your carelessness, you had the nerve to allow my granddaughter to be taken for so many years. And now that she’s back, you wanted nothing to do with her.”
“When I gave her the option of joining Yao Rong’s family, you wanted to disapprove of that too. What exactly do you want to do here? You want your child to be loyal only to you when you treat her like she’s nothing but trash? Are you stupid?”
Everyone fell silent.
As soon as Qin Man had heard her mother-in-law’s words, she froze.
“I—no, you’ve misunderstood.”
Although she didn’t like Yao Tang, she couldn’t help but feel as if something wasn’t right.
Yao Yan, who had been standing by her side this entire time, couldn’t help but frown. “Auntie, do you mind if I ask how they were switched at birth? How could you have been in the same hospital?”
From what they were aware, Yao Ran’s parents weren’t as privileged.
They lived in the mountains, and they couldn’t afford round-the-clock medical care, so how could they be in the same ward?
Even if Yao Ran’s parents were rich, it would be too much of a coincidence for them to give birth right next to Qin Man’s room.
After all, from what they know of Qin Man, she’d definitely choose a VIP Room.
He didn’t know the details of the switch between the two women. However, after hearing the whole story, he couldn’t help but feel as if something wasn’t adding up.
Yao Rong and Jiang Wanshared a look, also having the same questions.
Yao Tang was the only one who had been drinking tea this entire time. She stared at her phone as if typing things down.
It’s like she didn’t care at all.
“We weren’t in the city when Qin Man had given birth,” Yao Yuanreplied seriously. “When she had gone into labor, we stopped by the village near Yao Ran’s home. She gave birth in their small clinic. Coincidentally, Yao Ran’s biological mother had also given birth at the same time.”
After explaining, she raised her eyebrows. “Do you think I’m lying?”
“Of course not, Uncle,” Yao Yan denied. “Don’t misinterpret my question for suspicion.”
