Chapter 112: Named and Entered into the Family Tree
Chapter 112: Named and Entered into the Family Tree
After Jiang Ze explained to the elders who came here, and said that Lin Fuping would return to the Jiang family, not the Ji family, but would not give up his status as a disciple of the Sword Sect.
The elders surrounded Lin Fuping and began to praise him in various ways.
"This is Yaoyao's child. He is so beautiful and handsome!"
Ji Wu standing aside had a blank expression on his face. This elder had once told him that he looked delicate but irresponsible.
Same face, different fate
"His cultivation is also good. He is already in the middle stage of Yuanying at such a young age. It's really good."
"Not only her cultivation, but also her talent and luck are great. She is truly a blessing to our Jiang family."
The elders praised Lin Fuping to the heavens and earth, and Lin Fuping was completely confused. He kept laughing, and in the end, that smile was still silly.
Finally, Jiang Yao couldn't bear it anymore, so she stepped forward to protect Lin Fuping and introduced them to her one by one.
Lin Fuping started calling people non-stop, great-grandfather, grandpa and grandma, cousin, aunt, etc.
Then, under the kind gaze of the elders, he harvested a lot of natural treasures, elixirs and spiritual stones.
"Okay, now everyone has recognized him. Xiaoze, when do you think we can open an ancestral hall so that Fu Ping can recognize his ancestors and return to his roots? Also, do you want to change Fu Ping's name? After all, we have returned home and are no longer rootless."
Jiang Ze didn't say anything, just looked at Lin Fuping.
Lin Fuping shook his head firmly.
"Great-grandfather, I was picked up and raised by grandpa. This kindness is like a rebirth. He gave me this name, and I don't want to change it."
Jiang Heng also felt that what Lin Fuping said made sense, and he admired it in his heart.
"Well, you are right. We in the Jiang family are not the kind of people who are ungrateful. In this case, you can be called Jiang Fuping."
Lin Fuping hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.
"Great-grandfather, Linnan City was destroyed three years ago. Now I am the last person in Linnan City. If I erase my surname, will I still be Lin Fuping from Linnan City?"
"You mean you don't want to change your last name!"
Jiang Heng's expression turned serious. After all, in their minds, first name and last name have very different meanings.
Lin Fuping nodded and insisted on his choice.
"Even if this doesn't work, I can't be included in the Jiang family tree?"
Lin Fuping looked at Jiang Yao guiltily, only to see a smile in her eyes as she nodded slightly at him.
Lin Fuping felt warm in her heart, and her eyes became firm as she looked at Jiang Heng.
"Yes, even if I can't be included in the Jiang family tree."
Jiang Heng was silent, and the other elders did not dare to speak either. The scene was quiet for a while.
Finally, it was Jiang Ze who spoke up.
“Actually, this isn’t that difficult.”
Everyone looked at Jiang Ze
"All we want is a young man with the surname Jiang, but we don't necessarily want Lin Fuping."
Jiang Heng was thoughtful
"what do you mean?"
"In the Jiang family, she can be Jiang Fuping. Outside, in the Sword Sect, she can still be Lin Fuping. There is no rule that says a person can't have two names."
At the same time, Jiang Ze sent a message to Jiang Heng saying
"The Ji family probably thinks we are still in the Sword Sect. If we don't take this opportunity to include Fu Ping in the family tree, when will we? Besides, the name is just a code name, and Fu Ping is also a descendant of the Jiang family. Why bother with this name? Besides, we can also include her in the family tree with the surname Jiang."
Jiang Heng frowned slightly, glanced at Jiang Ze, and thought to himself
Why didn’t I realize before that this kid has an active mind?
But this is also a solution, so Jiang Heng looked at Lin Fuping
"Well, maybe you can accept this."
Lin Fuping knew that this was their last bottom line, and her uncle kept winking at her.
So Lin Fuping turned around and knelt down towards Jiang Yao and Ji Wu.
"I ask my mother and father to give me a name."
Jiang Yao tightly grasped Ji Wu's hand, tears falling from her eyes. Then she half-knelt and looked at Lin Fuping.
"Before you were born, your father and I thought of a name for you, Ji Yunyao. But now you have no relationship with the Ji family, and I only hope that you will be safe and happy in this life. So, would you like to be called Jiang Anle?"
Lin Fuping bows down
"Thank you, mother, for giving me this name."
Jiang Yao embraces Lin Fuping
"Anle, my Anle."
The elders of the Jiang family behind them looked at this scene with mixed feelings.
They have all seen Jiang Yao's condition in recent years, and they have watched the child grow up, so they feel sad for her.
But fortunately, now the hard work has finally paid off.
Jiang Ze: "Great-grandfather, what do you think?"
Jiang Heng: "Well, let's get started. Enter Jiang Anle's name into the family tree as soon as possible."
Jiang Ze: "Okay, I'll go back and prepare now."
Then Jiang Heng looked at the mother and daughter who were still hugging each other, and left with the elders.
Jiang Ze watched them leave and turned around and said
"Then I'll go back first, and implement these things as soon as possible so that I can feel at ease sooner."
After saying that, he left the space to the family of three.
After Jiang Ze left, Ji Wu helped Jiang Yao up, and the three of them went into the house together.
Jiang Yao half-hugged Lin Fuping and sat on the edge of the bed, listening to Lin Fuping telling her about his experiences over the years. Lin Fuping tried his best to report good news rather than bad news.
However, when Jiang Yao learned that the family who saved her daughter died in the chaotic storm, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken for her.
Gently patting the duckweed
"You still have us. Mother will never leave."
Lin Fuping put her arms around Jiang Yao's neck and closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of her mother.
It’s great that I have a home again.
sleepless night
The next day, when Jiang Ze came to see the family of three with dark circles under his eyes, he found that they all had red eyes.
...
"I think we should take care of it! Although there are few people coming to the ancestral hall this time, they are all elders and elite children of the Jiang family. We still have to take our image into consideration."
Because time was tight, Jiang Ze kept the ceremony as simple as possible. After all, Fu Ping's situation was special.
The three of them looked at each other and went back to their rooms to take care of things.
Jiang Yao personally put on the clan robe that Jiang Ze brought for Fu Ping.
Looking at Lin Fuping, who was wearing yellow clothes and looking at herself, Jiang Yao felt a little dazed.
These are all true!
When Jiang Ze brought Lin Fuping to the ancestral hall, there were already quite a few people inside.
Jiang Heng stood in front of the ancestral tablet, facing Lin Fuping.
Under the leadership of Jiang Yao, Lin Fuping stepped in step by step, with the elders and clansmen of the Jiang family on both sides.
Among them were many people she knew, such as Jiang Linglong, Jiang Fuguang, Jiang Wangshu, etc.
Lin Fuping felt deeply moved. He thought that these would be his relatives from now on. He would have a blood-related family in this world.
When they reached Jiang Heng, Jiang Yao stepped aside and Lin Fuping knelt down and bowed.
Jiang Heng opened the silk in his hand
"Jiang Anle, the daughter of Jiang Yao of the Jiang family, is thirteen years old. Due to the grudges between her father and her parents, she was forced to leave home for more than ten years and is now included in the family tree. I am now reporting this to the Ninth Heaven, asking all the ancestors in the heavens to witness it."
Then Jiang Heng turned around, faced the ancestral tablet, took the welcoming incense handed to him by Jiang Ze, lit it and inserted it into the incense burner.
The smoke of incense lingered and floated in the ancestral hall.
A quarter of an hour later, they gathered beside Lin Fuping and then went straight upwards.
Jiang Heng breathed a sigh of relief, facing everyone and shouted
"The ceremony is over"
