After I awakened my inner voice, I became the treasure of my family.

Chapter 58 Jiang Mianmian excitedly eats melon seeds.

Just then, everyone saw the fourth son of the Li family stride in, leading a tall man into the house.

Mother Li was sitting in the armchair in the hall, chatting with Father Li. When she caught sight of the newcomer, a joyful smile instantly appeared on her face.

It turned out that the person who came was none other than her godson, Meng Yuheng, whom she regarded as her own son.

"Oh my! My dear Yuheng, what brings you to your godmother's house today?" Mother Li stood up abruptly, beaming with joy.

Then, her gaze naturally fell on what Meng Yuheng was carrying, and she couldn't help but scold him, "Look at you, child, you are so sensible! Every time you come to visit your godmother's house, you never come empty-handed, you always bring some gifts."

What can I say to you, godmother? Next time you come, please don't spend so much money!

As she spoke, she gently patted Meng Yuheng's shoulder to express her affection.

Upon hearing this, Meng Yuheng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile. He said a few words to Li's mother, which immediately made her burst into laughter.

However, amidst Mother Li's laughter and chatter, his eyes swiftly swept over everyone in the room. In an instant, he realized that the Li family had guests at their door that day.

In fact, he had already heard that Li Tingxue and her husband had returned to their parents' home as soon as he stepped through the gate.

He had naturally met Li Tingxue's husband a few times. However, when he saw the woman holding the baby in front of him, who was actually Jiang Mianmian, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Meng Yuheng recognized this person; the woman before him was none other than the old lady of the Xuanhua Marquis's mansion! Ha, this old lady is no ordinary woman... Oh! Right, she is also the mother-in-law of Li Tingxue, the eldest daughter of the Li family.

Normally, it's not strange for a married daughter to bring her husband back to her parents' home, but she had never seen a daughter bring her mother-in-law along. Li Tingxue's behavior puzzled her.

Therefore, when he saw Jiang Mianmian appear at the Li residence, he felt quite strange and couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.

Just then, Meng Yuheng withdrew his gaze, his face full of smiles, and said, "Oh! Godmother, I didn't come here alone to freeload today, how could I come empty-handed?"

Besides, I was so happy when I was picking out gifts for you and your godfather...

Upon hearing this, Li's mother was slightly taken aback at first, but then quickly recovered, her face also breaking into a broad smile as she asked with concern, "Oh? So, your parents came along too?"

Meng Yuheng smiled and nodded, replying, "Yes, they're right behind us! I've been missing you and my godfather so much that my pace quickened unconsciously, hehe..."

Judging from the affection between Li's mother and Meng Yuheng, they were even closer than biological mother and son. An uninformed person seeing this scene would probably mistake Meng Yuheng for Li's mother's biological son!

Jiang Mianmian: "..."

She sat to the side, speechless as she watched the affectionate mother-son relationship.

In fact, Jiang Mianmian had seen this man named Meng Yuheng several times before, but this time, she looked at him with exceptional seriousness.

Especially when she looked up at the top of Meng Yuheng's head, she saw a line of text prominently displayed above him: "A male supporting character who only dreams of becoming the son of an official."

[Oh ho! Is this the origin of that cuckoldry scandal in Lichuan?]

[This is also the "dove" mentioned in Zhang Lanwei's plot analysis; this whole thing has caused quite a stir... haha...]

Jiang Mianmian instantly became excited, as if she had been injected with chicken blood. She couldn't help but exclaim:

Wow! I never expected this melon to be so big! Hehehe...

Actually, at first Jiang Mianmian only noticed that the Li family seemed to have some unknown gossip, but she never expected that the story behind it would be so interesting and dramatic.

At this moment, she was secretly delighted, feeling that she had really dug up a big juicy story.

While stealing glances at Meng Yuheng, Jiang Mianmian also turned her gaze to Li's mother standing beside him, all the while muttering to herself:

Oh my goodness! What a pitiful and tragic woman she is!

She couldn't imagine whether her mother-in-law could withstand such hurt in the face of such a complicated relationship, especially after witnessing what she had just seen.

[Her own husband's illegitimate son openly called her "godmother," and the intimacy between them was as if they were treating each other like his own son.]

Wow...the world is truly full of wonders!

Just then, Li's mother, who had been smiling the whole time, froze instantly after hearing Jiang Mianmian utter that astonishing statement.

Who... what did you just say, Mother-in-law?

I... my husband's... illegitimate child!

who……

Meng Yuheng?

Her heart was filled with disbelief and fear.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Li, standing nearby, was struck dumb, his pupils dilating violently, his face filled with terror: "Madam, please don't panic. Let me explain. This was truly just an accident, a complete accident..."

When Mr. Li saw the questioning look in Mrs. Li's eyes, he panicked and frantically waved his hands and shook his head at her. Just as he was about to explain, they heard Jiang Mianmian say something else:

Wow! This Li Chuan is such a treacherous fool! Who could imagine that he was deceived for over twenty years!

He had always believed that Gao Yuheng was his son, but that was not the case at all. Gao Yuheng, this so-called illegitimate child, was not actually his.

Jiang Mianmian paused for a moment while flipping through the pages, but then continued reading:

[Oh my! What's even more outrageous is that he was afraid his wife would find out, so he could only secretly raise his son. And what was the result? He ended up raising someone else's child for free, and for half his life!]

At this point, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but shake her head and continued:

[Oh dear, the most ridiculous thing is that not only did he not realize he had been deceived, but he also felt guilty towards that woman, knowing that he hadn't given them, mother and child, a legitimate status.]

So he would often secretly give money to that woman behind his wife's back, claiming it was to compensate her.
