Chapter 251
They also asked me the same question, and even gave me the clothes and baby blanket I had back then to keep for myself.
Dongxue had guessed that perhaps they abandoned me because I was a girl, but Dongxue has her current parents and older siblings to love her.
I don't want to look for them anymore. In Dongxue's heart, the grace of giving birth is not as great as the grace of raising me.
To give birth to her and then throw her away, and on a deserted snowy mountain at that—the person who abandoned her never intended to leave her a way to survive.
If it weren't for her parents, she would have died long ago, so she has already repaid the debt of her birth.
"If your birth mother didn't know of your existence, and you were maliciously switched after birth, would you still think so?"
"What? My Lord, are you saying Dongxue was switched?"
They remembered clearly that the predecessor of the Lord before them was also maliciously switched, which led to the later descent of the Immortal Lord.
Shen Dongxue naturally thought of this too, but she was relatively lucky to have met her current parents and her loving brother and sister.
She asked, "Who did the malicious switching that My Lord mentioned? Do my birth parents know?"
Did they want to acknowledge her? If they treated the fake as a treasure like the third branch of the Yu family did, then she definitely wouldn't acknowledge them.
She made up her mind; even if they wanted to acknowledge her, she was still the child of the Shen parents, the fourth child of the Shen family, Shen Dongxue.
"Your birth mother is still unaware to this day. Do you remember the sudden thunder that struck when it rained yesterday?"
The two nodded. Not only did they remember, but they also knew that it was a mere point of her finger that summoned the heavenly thunder.
Recalling the lightning flashing on the Lord's hand at that time, the sisters still felt a palpitation in their chests and infinite admiration and submission toward the Junior Preceptor.
"The heavenly thunder destroyed the Cao residence, and over a dozen people were captured, among them a pair of Luo brothers, Luo Yu and Luo Feng.
They are the eldest and second sons of Luo Xue, the master of Sunset Villa.
This Luo Feng is also the Young Pavilion Master of the Wind and Rain Pavilion."
"Wind and Rain Pavilion? One of the three largest assassin organizations in the martial arts world, and its Young Pavilion Master is actually the eldest son of Sunset Villa?"
Shen Chunying's eyes widened. As children of the martial arts world, who didn't know the Wind and Rain Pavilion that spanned the six kingdoms, and Sunset Villa, one of the Five Mountains and Six Villas of Great Yan?
Shen Chunxue also said, "Lord Junior Preceptor may not know, but this Sunset Villa is only a hundred miles away from our hometown, and it has a great reputation among the commoners in the surrounding prefectures and counties.
It's because their master, Luo Xue, is not only a renowned heroine in the martial arts world, but also a great philanthropist known for her local charity.
I never expected them to be involved with the notorious Wind and Rain Pavilion!"
Shen Chunxue's face showed unconcealable disappointment; the childhood idol of the sisters was the heroine Luo Xue.
Seeing her expression, Yue Fuguang curled her lips into a smile, "I haven't finished speaking yet, don't be disappointed just yet."
[Master, if you dawdle any longer, won't these two stop being fans and turn against her!]
The sisters' bodies stiffened involuntarily. Although they didn't understand what the divine artifact meant by "stop being fans and turn against her,"
they knew they were being impatient. They smiled embarrassedly, sat up straighter, and quietly waited for the Junior Preceptor to continue.
"The brother Luo Yu is not Luo Xue's biological son; he is the baby boy who was switched with Dongxue.
Back when Luo Xue gave birth, she didn't know she had a boy and a girl, rather than twin sons."
Hearing this, Shen Chunying's face flushed red, while Shen Dongxue's face gradually turned pale.
Shen Chunying's voice trembled a little as she said, "So, Heroine Luo is Dongxue's birth mother?"
Shen Dongxue also looked at her in disbelief. How could Heroine Luo, whom the sisters admired most in their childhood, be her birth mother!
Yue Fuguang said affirmatively, "That's right, Luo Xue is Dongxue's biological mother, and she is unaware of Dongxue's existence.
The ones who switched the children were the midwife and a maid in the Luo mansion, and they were all acting under the orders of Yin Shuangcheng.
As for this Yin Shuangcheng, he is Luo Xue's husband, Dongxue's biological father, and the live-in son-in-law of Sunset Villa."
"Her biological father switched the children? Even a vicious tiger won't eat its cubs, and Dongxue is his biological daughter. He actually..."
He actually threw her into the mountains, and on a snowy day at that. He didn't leave this daughter any way to survive!
Shen Dongxue had tears welling up in her eyes. Hearing that she was switched by her biological father didn't make her too sad.
After all, she felt nothing for that Yin Shuangcheng. Without expectations, there could be no disappointment.
Her sadness was just heartache for Luo Xue. Such a valiant heroine actually met such a scumbag, and this scumbag was her biological father.
Shen Dongxue held her sister's hand, which was trembling slightly with anger, and asked Yue Fuguang, "My Lord, what is the matter with that Luo Yu?"
"According to investigations, this Yu is your half-brother, the son Yin Shuangcheng had with another woman."
She sighed slightly and said, "Yin Shuangcheng married into Sunset Villa. He has seven brothers in his family, and he is the fifth.
The first year was fine, but later, after living comfortably in the Luo family, his mind became restless. Taking advantage of Luo Xue being out on business,
he watched plays, listened to music, and visited brothels. Later, a high-class courtesan became pregnant with his child. Originally, Yin Shuangcheng just wanted to have a child with his own surname.
He didn't expect that at this time Luo Xue was also found to be pregnant, and later it was discovered to be twins. So he harbored thoughts he shouldn't have had.
He brought a midwife from his hometown, sent away the loyal maids, and used a secret medicine to make both women give birth at the same time.
After you were born, the midwife directly announced it was a son. By this time, Luo Xue had already fainted from exhaustion, and what followed was Yin Shuangcheng switching the children.
Because you were born at a manor when Luo Xue was out on an inspection tour, it was relatively close to the mountain where you were abandoned.
Yin Shuangcheng switched the children overnight and personally threw you onto the mountain."
"My Lord, this matter must be told to Villa Master Luo."
Shen Chunying gnashed her teeth. They absolutely could not let that man surnamed Yin off easily!
Yue Fuguang nodded, "It will definitely be told. Luo Feng has been captured and will undoubtedly die, so Shen Chunxue will be the sole heir of Sunset Villa."
[Master, don't you plan to tell Shen Chunxue that Luo Feng, like his scumbag father, also has a son and a daughter outside?]
"Why tell her? The grandson and granddaughter of the old pavilion master of Wind and Rain Pavilion are destined not to be on the same path as her, nor can they enter the same family.
With them alive, do you think Pavilion Master Feng would spare Chunxue, the person competing with his grandson for the inheritance?"
The sisters' hearts sank. Getting involved with the Wind and Rain Pavilion, what would the imperial court think?
Shen Dongxue said somewhat hesitantly, "My Lord, Luo Feng's matters won't implicate Villa Master Luo, will they?"
"No." She looked at Shen Dongxue and said, "Luo Xue is unaware of Luo Feng's affairs. I will naturally protect Sunset Villa. Do you want to acknowledge Luo Xue?"
Shen Dongxue immediately knelt on one knee, "Dongxue thanks My Lord on behalf of Villa Master Luo for your protection."
Her hanging heart settled slightly. As long as My Lord took action, Sunset Villa would absolutely be fine.
Yue Fuguang chuckled lightly, "Looking at you, it seems you are going to acknowledge her?"
She nodded in satisfaction. "Get up quickly. Sunset Villa's geographical location is special. If you manage it well, you will naturally achieve great things."
