Chapter 1172: acknowledge the ancestors and return to the clan
Translator: 549690339
after all, too many years had pa.s.sed, and xu pingfei and the others had all thought that ah ming had died. they were very careful in their conversation and never talked about the deformed child that qiao jiuyin had abandoned in front of the children.
fang yusheng and qiao jiusheng knew that the child was still alive. over the years, they would occasionally send people to inquire about the child’s living conditions. knowing that this child was strong and could support himself, fang yusheng and the others didn’t help him.
they didn’t tell xu pingfei and the others that fang shan’s brother was still alive. they were worried that the child would bring chaos when he returned to the fang family.
qiao jiusheng did not understand ah ming’s heart. she was not sure if he would still be able to maintain his original heart and be a kind child after knowing her ident.i.ty. she and fang yusheng were both worried that bringing the child back was like bringing a wild wolf back.
after attending fang shan’s graduation, the family went home. qiao jiusheng and fang yusheng brought fang taoran and fang zikai to pack up. the four of them planned to go on a vacation to the private island in Greece.
!!
fang zicheng had to take care of lu yinxi, so he stayed in binjiang city.
they had just finished packing and were preparing to have dinner before leaving when they received a call from fang yu ‘an.
on the other end of the phone, fang yu ‘an was excitedly sharing the news that the child was still alive and that he had acknowledged fang shan. qiao jiusheng and fang yusheng looked at each other and decided to watch from the side and let it develop as it wished.
since the heavens had allowed the people who had been separated for many years to finally reunite, this arrangement naturally made sense.
when fang taoran and fang zikai heard that fang shan had a twin brother and that fang shan had brought him home, they were not in the mood to eat. their hearts had long flown to fang shan’s side. they wished they had a pair of wings and could fly to fang shan’s house to watch the show.
fang yusheng’s entire family left to witness ah ming’s return to the fang family. chi boguang and lisa followed. when they arrived at xu pingfei’s house, fang yusheng’s aunt, fang qingyun, and her husband had also arrived.
fang qingyun’s children were all married and had their own families. xie qingyun had retired from politics and was now idle at home with fang qingyun, taking care of flowers and walking the dog. their days were also very good.
fang qingyun and the rest had rushed over in their car after hearing about ah ming.
fang yuqing also came with his daughter, princess jiang. jiang wei didn’t come because she had gone on a business trip.
seeing that everyone was present, fang shan lowered his head and whispered a few words into ah ming’s ear. ah ming started from where chi boguang was standing and shyly called them, ” second grandpa, second grandma. ” great-aunt, great-aunt. uncle … aunt. chengcheng, kaikai, ranranran…h.e.l.lo. ”
there were so many people in the fang family that ah ming’s breathing became short after he finished shouting.
ah ming called for his men, and the elders gave him the red packets that they had prepared.
ah ming accepted all of them.
after entering the house, xu pingfei pulled ah ming to see his room. in fact, fang yu ‘an and ouyang chao had prepared the room for him. at first glance, the room looked exactly like fang shan’s.
xu pingfei pushed ah ming into his room and said, ” from today onwards, you’ll be staying at home! ” this is your room, and your brother’s room is next door.”
“alright.”
after that, xu pingfei brought ah ming to look at fang shan’s childhood photos. some were smiling, some were crying, and some were funny photos taken by fang yu ‘an when he fell to the ground and couldn’t get up.
ah ming was looking at the photos very seriously. he looked at the lively and lovely child in the photos with various expressions. ah ming seemed to have transmigrated into the photo alb.u.m and witnessed fang shan’s life at that time.
that must be very blissful.
xu pingfei wanted to tell ah ming everything she could remember in the past ten years of the fang family in the shortest time possible. she wanted ah ming to integrate into the family as soon as possible.
ah ming understood what she meant. he didn’t show any impatience as he listened to xu pingfei’s long-winded explanation.
…
the news of fang shan suddenly having a twin brother quickly spread among the upper-cla.s.s circle of binjiang city. those who were slightly older still remembered the past and knew that when qiao jiuyin was pregnant with fang shan, there were probably two children in her stomach.
later, after giving birth, they said that one of the children had died from lack of oxygen, while the other was still alive. in the end, not long after, qiao jiuyin was sentenced to prison for her crime, and she was sentenced to life imprisonment.
it was said that one of the crimes she had committed was murder.
qiao jiuyin had not murdered anyone else but her own flesh and blood! when she was released from the court that year, she was escorted out of the court by the police. on the way to the prison car, many people threw eggs at her.
those women who had also become mothers had even cried and scolded qiao jiuyin for having a heart of a snake.
back then, that incident had caused a huge ruckus and almost everyone knew about it. the young people nowadays were almost unaware of it. however, when they heard that fang shan’s brother was still alive and had been acknowledged by the fang family, everyone gasped.
how could a dead child still be alive?!
outsiders naturally didn’t know the details of this.
the second day after a ‘ming returned, the head of the household, fang yusheng, personally brought him to the ancestral hall of the fang family to pay respects to the ancestors and elders. on the third day, the fang family held a luxurious party for ah ming.
that day, almost half of the rich and powerful people in binjiang city came. seeing ah ming’s face that was exactly the same as fang shan’s, no one would doubt the authenticity of this young man’s ident.i.ty.
since they looked so similar, it was impossible for them to be fake. there was no need to do a dna test to know.
fang shan had always wanted to do something for ah ming. he specially brought ah ming to United States to go to the headquarters of X intelligence company. he found a professional designer and asked him to design an invention that could help ah ming share the strength of his left leg and help him walk and live like a normal person.
fang shan patiently waited for two to three months. when autumn came, he finally received a call from the designer. the other party wanted him to bring ah ming for surgery. the day he received the call, fang shan brought ah ming over.
the surgery was a little complicated. it required three bones that were designed according to the structure of ah ming’s body to be connected to the metacarpus of his left leg. the bones looked like real leg bones, but they were made of a special material.
once the bones were secured, a layer of meat-like gel was added to the bones. the surgery was very successful. after putting on the fake bone, his left foot looked like a normal person’s. the fake toes were very realistic, and even the color was the same as a ‘ming’s feet.
after ah ming’s surgery, he had been recuperating for more than a month. when he walked again, he was no different from a normal person!
that day, ah ming squatted in the hospital corridor and cried like a child.
fang shan stayed by his side and listened to his cries. he looked up at the ceiling and gestured with his eyes, trying to hold back his tears.
