Madam Han had been deeply worried about her daughter’s affairs.

Recently, she had become even more haggard.

Han Qianhua stayed by her side, feeling increasingly concerned.

“I don’t want to drink anymore, take it away,” Madam Han said weakly, waving her hand.

Han Qianhua felt sorrowful.

She only wished for her mother to recover.

She would even be willing to trade ten years of her own life for it.

“Thud.”

A bundle flew through the air in an arc and landed on the ground.

Madam Chen, standing behind, held her forehead in frustration.

Now the entire Han household knew she had a daughter with extraordinary strength.

Madam Han was so startled that she sat up straight in shock.

“What is that?!”

Han Qianhua was about to get angry when she saw a small, round figure huffing and puffing as it climbed over the threshold.

The doorstep was taller than her legs, so she could only clamber over it.

“Grandma Han!”

The elderly lady saw only a chubby little child running toward her.

She was wearing a red vest, with two small pigtails tied on her head.

With every step, the little pigtails bobbed up and down.

Madam Chen followed closely behind, entering the room to pay her respects.

“Greetings, Mrs. Han, Miss Han.”

Now that Han Qianhua had divorced, she could no longer be addressed as Mrs.Han.

“Xinwan!” Han Qianhua happily walked over.

She took Madam Chen’s hand. “Mother, this time it’s all thanks to Xinwan.”

If not for Xinwan, she would never have uncovered that scoundrel’s true nature.

The elderly lady lying in bed showed a kind smile.

“Madam, look what I brought you!”

Before Jiang Yuanxi could even reach her, Duke Han picked her up and carried her to Madam Han as if presenting a treasure.

Duke Han and Madam Han had always been deeply in love. Every time he went out, he would bring something interesting back for her.

Even after so many years, this habit had not changed.

Then he turned to the little dumpling beside him.

“What’s your name?”

Jiang Yuanxi obediently sat on a small stool. “Grandma Han, my name is Jiang Yuanxi.”

Then, she opened her bundle and took out packets of delicious treats.

“These are gifts.”

The old lady saw that they were all children’s favorites—dried meat, preserved fruits, and even a jug of milk.

“This is Yuanxi’s most important treasure. It’s all for you.”

Duke Han couldn’t stop laughing.

“I was wondering what kind of treasure you had. She’s so young, yet she already knows how to give gifts.”

A smile appeared on Madam Han’s face.

Jiang Yuanxi didn’t understand what they were laughing about.

She had saved up these snacks for a long time.

If it weren’t for the Han family saving her grandfather’s family, she wouldn’t have been willing to part with these precious treats.

Jiang Yuanxi was sweet-mouthed and adorable.

Before long, Madam Han was affectionately calling her “my dear” with every sentence.

Duke Han suddenly asked in a hushed tone, “Yuanxi, what do you think of Grandpa Han?”

Jiang Yuanxi glanced at the white-bearded old man.

“Grandpa Han, I like you.”

“How about letting Grandpa Han be your real grandfather?”

The little girl furrowed her brows slightly.

“Grandfather… that’s not good.”

She already had a grandfather, but he had cast their entire family out.

Hmph! That old scoundrel, Duke An, must have left a terrible impression on the child.

That was why she disliked the idea of a grandfather so much.

But Duke Han refused to give up and continued coaxing her.

“Yuanxi, do you want Grandma Han to be your real grandmother?”

Jiang Yuanxi lifted her eyes to look at Madam Han.

Gentle, kind, warm.

In her dreams, grandmothers should be like this.

She didn’t have a real grandmother, but she wanted one.

The little girl nodded slightly.

Duke Han felt a pang of jealousy and resented Duke An even more.

But the outcome was good.

He turned to Han Qianhua. “Xinwan, I wish to formally recognize Yuanxi as my granddaughter. What do you think?”

After all, the child was someone else’s daughter, so he had to seek the parents’ permission.

“Thud.”

The pastry in Madam Chen’s hand fell onto her dress.

What did Duke Han just say?

A real granddaughter?!

Even Chun Zhi and Chun Tao were stunned.

The famous Duke Han wanted to take their young lady as his granddaughter.

And not just any granddaughter—a formally recognized one!

This meant she would be entered into the family genealogy!

Han Qianhua was also taken aback.

Because of the drug that the scoundrel Yan Song had given her, she had been unable to bear children for years.

Now, having a little granddaughter to accompany her parents made her incredibly happy.

Besides, she liked this little one.

“Xinwan, what do you think?” Han Qianhua asked again.

“This… this…” Madam Chen stammered. “We need to ask my husband.”

“I’ll invite my dear nephew over right away,” Duke Han declared.

Jiang Fengyuan arrived, still confused.

Just like Madam Chen.

How had his daughter gone for a visit and suddenly gained new relatives?

Duke Han warmly took Jiang Fengyuan’s hand.

“My dear nephew, I wish to take Yuanxi as my granddaughter. What do you think?”

“Let… let Yuanxi decide.”

The Han family was kind, and if Yuanxi was willing, they wouldn’t stop her.

Besides, there would be more people to love and protect their daughter.

【I want to, Daddy. I want to have a real grandmother.】

Madam Chen and Jiang Fengyuan exchanged glances and finally nodded.

While they were there, Duke Han invited people to burn incense and record Jiang Yuanxi’s name in the genealogy.

A golden light flashed, and Duke Han thought he was seeing things.

【Wow! I finally have a real grandmother!】

The Han family was stunned on the spot.

Who was speaking?

After analyzing the meaning behind the words, they all turned to look at Jiang Yuanxi.

【Why are they all staring at me? Am I too cute?】

The three of them turned away at the same time.

Confirmed—it was the little dumpling.

Duke Han was ecstatic.

Could that golden light have come from this little one?

Had they really invited a little deity into their home?

For years, Madam Han had prayed for a grandson, but none had come.

Now, not only did she have a granddaughter, but she could also hear her thoughts.

Could this be divine blessing?

Looking at Madam Chen’s family, who remained unaware, their suspicions deepened.

Yes!

They were now truly Yuanxi’s family—her real grandfather, grandmother, and godmother!

The Han family kept their excitement in check.

They decided that this secret must never be revealed.

Otherwise, their little granddaughter might be seen as a monster.

Duke Han was overjoyed and immediately took Jiang Fengyuan to drink and celebrate.

Madam Han and Han Qianhua stayed behind to chat with Madam Chen.

“Come here, dear.” Madam Han pointed at Han Qianhua.

“She will be your godmother from now on.”

“Godmother,” the little girl called sweetly.

“Ah!” Han Qianhua’s heart melted.

She had longed for a child, but that scoundrel Yan Song had harmed her, making it impossible for her to conceive.

Even if she remarried, she might never have a child of her own.

Han Qianhua lifted Jiang Yuanxi and kissed her fair little face.

【Ah! I got kissed by a beauty again!】

Madam Han covered her mouth, secretly laughing.

The gloom that had weighed on her for days was completely lifted.

Seeing her daughter being adored, Madam Chen felt happy, too.

Master Zhikong’s words had left her uneasy.

Now, with more people to protect Yuanxi, she felt reassured.

As they chatted, a tall figure entered.

“Madam, Miss, the Grand Princess has sent an invitation.”

Jiang Yuanxi looked up.

She saw the red string of fate on the man’s head and widened her eyes.

So that’s how it was.
