Chapter 97: Everyone has their own thoughts!
The man looked up at the bloodthirsty and furious person in front of him, trembling uncontrollably. Then he lowered his head, hunched his shoulders and said aggrievedly, "She had a miserable life. What does it have to do with me if she died in childbirth?"
"You beast, I'm going to beat you to death!" Jiang Weilong said and swung his fist towards the man's face, but before his fist landed on the man's face, his arm was grabbed by Gu Yunting.
Jiang Weilong glanced at Gu Yunting and growled angrily, "Gu Yunting, you f*cking dare to stop me? Shi Yi's death is also related to you. If you don't let go, I will beat you too."
Gu Yunting didn't let go, and reminded him solemnly: "Jiang Weilong, I owe you the Jiang family. I will never fight back no matter how hard I try. But don't forget the purpose of your visit."
Jiang Weilong no longer cared about anything at the moment. He completely lost his mind, pushed Gu Yunting away with force, and swung his fist at the man again.
When his fist was less than five centimeters away from the man's face, the little girl suddenly opened her arms to block the man, her eyes wide open and she yelled at him, "Why are you hitting my dad?"
Jiang Weilong's hand suddenly froze in mid-air. He looked at the little girl in front of him. Shi Yi was this age when she got lost. His eyes instantly turned red. This child really looked like Shi Yi.
His fist dropped and his body staggered forward uncontrollably. He grabbed the child's shoulders and burst into tears before he even opened his mouth.
After a long silence, he trembled and uttered a suppressed voice: "Child, I am your mother's biological brother and your uncle. What is your name? How old are you this year?"
The little girl stared at him sharply and said coldly, "If you are really my uncle, why did you come to see me today? Why did you come after my mother died? I heard that your family is very rich, but did you know that my mother died of a difficult labor and heavy bleeding because she couldn't afford to go to the hospital? You even tried to hit my father just now, I don't want to recognize you!"
Jiang Weilong didn't expect the child to have such an attitude towards him. When he saw the shabby clothes she was wearing, he felt angry and upset. How could the child of their Jiang family end up in this situation?
He choked up and explained, "Child, it's your uncle who is late, but things are not what you think."
Seeing that the little girl still ignored him, he turned to look at the man, his brows full of anger: "Did you teach the child to say that? Is this how you took care of her all these years?"
The man didn't dare to breathe, and stammered back, "I...I didn't...it wasn't me..."
Seeing his cowardly look, Jiang Weilong was so angry that he raised his hand to hit him.
Seeing him coming for her father again, the little girl protected him behind her and said without showing any weakness, "Are you going to hit someone again? These are not words my father taught me, they are what I want to say. If you want to hit someone, come at me, don't bully my father."
Jiang Weilong's expression softened immediately, and he said in a soft voice, "Child, you misunderstood your uncle. I am..."
Before he could finish, Su Mengxue walked over to the little girl, half-knelt down, smiled at her, and asked gently, "Is your mother Jiang Shiyi?"
The little girl looked at the beautiful woman in front of her with wary eyes and shook her head: "My mother's name is Xiulan, not Jiang Shiyi as you said."
Su Mengxue guessed that Xiulan was Jiang Shiyi's name here. She nodded and continued to ask, "Good boy, can you tell me your name?"
The little girl replied, "Wang Zhaodi."
Zhaodi? Su Mengxue felt very sad when she heard this answer and thought of Jiang Shiyi who died in childbirth because of a difficult childbirth.
She hid her emotions and was thinking about how to chat with her when she noticed from the corner of her eye that the girl was wearing a small rope bell. After a moment's glance, she asked, "Your mother made this bracelet for you, right? It's so beautiful. Your mother must be a gentle and patient person."
The little girl looked down at the bracelet and nodded: "This is the only thing my mother left me."
Su Mengxue noticed that the little girl had tears in her eyes, but she was stubborn and refused to cry. She felt even more distressed for her. She and the little girl had similarities in that they both lost their mothers when they were a few years old. The only difference was that Jiang Shiyi was forced to do so, and her mother didn't want her anymore.
She suppressed her sadness, raised her hand and touched the little girl's head, comforting her: "I believe your mother must love you very much, and she must be reluctant to leave you. When I was little, I heard someone say that every deceased person will turn into a star in the sky. Whenever you miss your mother, just look up at the sky and say what's on your mind. I believe your mother will hear you and she can see you too."
The little girl's eyelashes trembled violently, her fingers tightly grasped the hem of her skirt, and then she asked cautiously: "Is what you said true? Can my mother really hear me? And can she see me?"
Su Mengxue nodded at her: "When I was little, my parents were not around. At that time, I felt like the sky was falling, so I can understand how you feel now. Child, if you miss your mother, don't keep it in your heart. If you want, I can be your ears and listen to your stories about you and your mother."
The little girl said with red eyes: "Really?"
Su Mengxue nodded sincerely, then opened her arms towards her, holding back tears and said, "Child, can I hug you for your mother now?"
The little girl hesitated for a moment, and when she saw the beautiful woman's red eyes, she suddenly threw herself into her arms and burst into tears.
Su Mengxue patted her back gently, silently comforting her, and at the same time shed moving tears. At this moment, she was not hugging the little girl, but the broken self in her childhood.
Seeing the two of them hugging each other and crying, Lu Yuanzhou felt a lot of emotions in his heart. He originally thought that Su Mengxue didn't like children and was a little cold and defensive towards others. Now he knew that she was hurt in her childhood, so she covered herself with a hard shell to protect herself.
At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, that he must protect her in the future.
Jiang Weilong originally had no feelings for Su Mengxue, but at this moment he had to admit that Su Mengxue had helped him solve a big problem. He must take Shi Yi's child back, and he was afraid that she might not agree. He looked at Su Mengxue with a deep look in his eyes, and suddenly a bold idea popped up in his mind.
Gu Yunting's thoughts were different from the other two. Su Mengxue had just said that her parents were not around when she was a child. This made him more and more certain of his previous guess. Who was she? Why did she pretend to be a member of the Su family?
Just as they were all thinking about their own things, the man with a green glow on his body spoke frivolously: "Hey, you are not doing this to trick the child back to Jiangbei, are you? Zhaodi is young and naive, we will not be fooled by you. This child was raised by the Wang family with all their heart and soul. If you have any evil intentions, not only Wang Aiguo, but also the villagers of Linxi Village will not agree to you!"
