Transmigrated as My Aunt in the 70s

Tian Xinhua disagreed and called out, "Great-grandpa," believing that Ah Nan was still too young. A few words of vague comfort from Great-grandpa would be enough to fool her. He had no desire for Ah Nan to feel sad about not being the Tian Family’s biological daughter; they should keep it hidden as long as possible. As for Gao Hongmei, all he needed to do was have a word with Gao Yuzhu, who he believed would surely get his daughter to change her story thanks to his shrewdness.

"Xinhua, Ah Nan isn’t that young anymore. She’s not so easily fooled. Besides, would her knowing her origins mean she’s no longer our Tian Family’s girl? We have to trust Ah Nan; it’s better for her to hear about her origins from us than to find out from someone else," Old Man decided firmly.

Tian Sisi was pulled out of the room by Zhu Aiqing after changing her clothes. Tian Manjin, awakened by the noise outside, also got up and, seeing his daughter with wet hair, jested with a smile, "Ah Nan, did you fall into the water?"

Tian Manjin’s tone was relaxed; in his eyes, a small ditch was just like a water ditch at home. Falling in would only wet one’s clothes—that’s all. So, unlike Granny Zhao and Zhu Aiqing, who made a big fuss, one could say that men and women see things very differently.

"Daddy, I beat that fatso Gao Hongmei to a pulp, until she was crying and wetting herself," Tian Sisi said proudly.

Tian Manjin took interest in this, "Oh? You’re that impressive, Ah Nan. Why did you beat up that Gao Hongmei?"

Tian Sisi’s face instantly fell, and her eyes reddened. She had planned to put on a little act, but upon seeing Tian Manjin’s affectionate smile, she felt wronged—and didn’t need to pretend anymore. Seeing his precious daughter’s aggrieved expression, Tian Manjin hurriedly asked, "Ah Nan, did that Gao Hongmei bully you?"

"Daddy, that Gao Hongmei called me a bastard and said that I was discarded by Daddy and Mama," Tian Sisi said with tears in her eyes, truly feeling upset. She worried if the truth came out, would the Tian Family still treat her as affectionately as before.

Tian Manjin jumped in fright, "Gao Yuzhu, you bastard, I’ll flatten you for not teaching your daughter properly!"

Tian Manjin wished he could immediately go and give Gao Yuzhu a good thrashing; his darling, whom he cherished so dearly, had actually been so insulted by the Gao Family’s girl. It must have been heard from adults; otherwise, how could Gao Hongmei know?

Right now, Tian Manjin couldn’t focus on punishing Gao Yuzhu; his heartbroken daughter was of utmost importance. He wrapped Tian Sisi in his arms and said with a smile, "That stupid girl from the Gao Family is talking nonsense. Ah Nan, you are my and your Mama’s dear daughter. Look how much you resemble your Daddy."
