Pengjia Village in the suburbs
Lin Jiarong did not go directly to find the cousin who was sold by her mother. Instead, he first secretly inquired about his cousin in Pengjia Village. He learned that his cousin had not yet married, and the children in her family had not been living well. Recently, there was an accident at home. His cousin's brother broke his leg while collecting herbs in the mountains and was worried about not having money to go to the hospital for treatment.
This was really like someone handing you a pillow just when you feel sleepy. Lin Jiarong was overjoyed and felt that this was a sure thing. He didn't plan to go home to discuss it and went straight to Peng's house.
The Peng family's old house is at the end of the village. It is considered the most dilapidated house in the village. After all, it is located in the suburbs of Beijing. Many children from the village have found jobs in the city and built brick and tile houses at home. Along the way to the end of the village, it is rare to see dilapidated mud houses like the one in front of you. It can be seen that the family's financial situation is indeed as the villagers said, very tight.
It's better to be financially tight, and it's even better to have difficulties, so that it will be easier for him to implement his plan.
It was the same old routine again. When Lin Jiarong entered the room, he said that he was here to look for his relatives. He said that he had been looking for his sister for more than ten days and finally found her.
Especially when he saw Peng Zhu's face which was 90% similar to Luo Qing's, the hypocrisy on his face increased by two points.
Mother Peng's face was very bad. "Who told you that Zhu was here?"
She had never told anyone about Zhu's birth. Except for the woman who sold the child to her, no one knew that Zhu was not her biological daughter.
When she bought the child, she had always said that the money was to sever the blood relationship with her and that she was not allowed to see the child again.
Lin Jiarong said, "My mother had no choice but to give my sister away because of a major family tragedy. She regretted it the next day and cried all day at home, searching everywhere for her. Unfortunately, Beijing is so big, and our family searched for a long time without success."
Mother Peng didn't believe his words. When the woman gave her the child, she didn't seem reluctant at all. She just threw the child to her as if it were garbage, without even a decent piece of clothing. She took the money and left without looking back.
She would never forget the woman's excitement when she received the money. She never even looked at the child from beginning to end and didn't act like a mother at all.
If it weren't for the birth certificate, she would even suspect that the child was stolen by that woman from somewhere.
"Then how come you can find someone now all of a sudden?" asked Peng's mother.
Lin Jiarong said, "A few days ago, my mother met a relative who had been to Pengjia Village and might have seen my sister there. When he met my mother, he said he saw a young girl here who looked just like my mother when she was young. My mother was so happy that she almost fainted and asked me to come over and find her."
After saying this, Lin Jiarong stared at Peng Zhu, who was still in shock after seeing his body. "Uncle is right. My sister is indeed very similar to my mother when she was young."
"Mom, is what he said true?" Peng Zhu asked.
Mother Peng was silent for a few seconds before nodding, "Yes, you are not my biological daughter. If you are willing to be with him, I won't blame you."
Peng Zhu's eyes immediately turned red. "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? I am your biological daughter. I will not betray you."
Lin Jiarong was anxious. "Sister, our mother has been missing you so much that she's almost sick. The only thing she's been thinking about these days is finding you. Now that she finally finds you, you can't not go back."
Peng Zhu shook her head, "You must be mistaken. I'm not your sister. Please go ahead."
Lin Jiarong hadn't expected this to be the outcome. Was this girl stupid? This family was so poor, what was there to be nostalgic about?
"Sister, I heard that your brother at the Peng family was injured. I can pay for his medical treatment. I only ask you to come home with me, see our mother, and stay with her for a few days, okay?"
She heard that Lin Jiarong was willing to pay for her brother's medical treatment, and all she needed was for her to accompany her biological mother, whom she had just met, for a few days.
Lin Jiarong saw that Peng Yizhu was moved and continued, "I can also pay for the renovation of your house. This is our Lin family's way of repaying the Peng family for raising you."
Peng Zhu was really moved, because her brother said that the house at home was not very nice. If the house could be repaired, maybe her brother would be able to get married soon.
Peng Yizhu wanted to agree immediately, but she said to Lin Jiarong, "I need to discuss it with my family. Please come back this afternoon."
