Chapter 37 Deliberately Making Things Difficult
Lu Qionghua was feeding Lu Caoniu breakfast and Chen Baomei was half lying on the bedside chair peeling fruit for her when Shen Qin and his wife came over with Chen Jiao and Wu Hui.
"Mom, let's come and see the child."
Shen Qin said a little tiredly.
Last night, the couple's argument was heard by Shen Jiao. When she learned that she might not be their biological daughter, Shen Jiao was in a rage all night.
After finally coaxing the child into submission, she started making a fuss this morning about going to the hospital to see Lu Caoniu.
Shen Qin and his wife had no choice but to bring both children over.
Lu Caoniu timidly looked at the family of four with her big eyes, and finally her gaze fell on Shen Jiao.
Chen Jiao was wearing a high-quality puffy skirt and a pair of pink leather shoes.
She has fair and delicate skin, and a high ponytail with an exquisite butterfly hairpin on top of her head. It's obvious that she is well taken care of by her family.
Chen Jiao stared at Lu Caoniu blankly.
She held Wu Wenwan's hand and suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Mom, she is so ugly, like a monkey."
Lu Caoniu pursed her lips, feeling ashamed.
Wu Hui also followed suit, "Mom, she's too ugly. I don't want her to be my sister. I only want Jiaojiao. Jiaojiao is my sister."
Lu Caoniu's eyes were filled with tears, but she kept her eyes wide open to prevent the tears from falling.
"Our Niuniu is not ugly. When she grows up, she will become a great beauty, just like the ugly duckling turning into a white swan."
Chen Baomei reached out and touched her little head, comforting her in a gentle voice.
Her dry and yellow hair was as rough as a prickly hemp rope. Compared with Chen Jiao, Chen Baomei felt extremely sad.
Feeling the warmth of the big hand on her head, this was the first time she was treated so warmly. Lu Caoniu's nose was sore and tears fell silently one by one.
Shen Jiao said with great disgust: "Mom, she looks even uglier when she cries."
Chen Baomei shot a sharp gaze at Chen Jiao.
Shen Jiao shrank back in fear and hid behind Wu Wenwan.
"Okay, now that people have seen it, let's go have breakfast."
They arrived so early in the morning that they didn't even have time to eat breakfast.
"Mom, let's go first."
After breakfast, Shen Qin had to rush to work.
Chen Baomei said, "Don't come to the hospital unless you have something to do before the results come out."
Their coming here will only make people feel upset.
Shen Qin responded awkwardly.
The family of four walked one in front and one behind, with Wu Wenwan pulling Shen Jiao behind.
When he reached the door, Shen Jiao suddenly stopped.
Wu Wenwan asked gently, "What happened to Jiaojiao?"
Shen Jiao looked back at Lu Caoniu and said, "Mom, although she is very ugly, she is a bit pitiful. Jiaojiao has a lot of old clothes and shoes that can no longer be worn. I will go back and pick them up and give them to this little sister, okay?"
Wu Wenwan was very surprised, and her eyes were full of relief when she looked at Chen Jiao.
"Okay, our Jiaojiao has grown up and is a loving child! Mom will help you clean up later."
Shen Jiao smiled and nodded.
She turned around and said to Lu Caoniu, "Sister, my old clothes have only been worn a few times. They are very new. Please don't dislike them when the time comes."
She is so scheming at such a young age. No wonder Lu Caoniu was tortured by her to the point of committing suicide in her previous life.
She shows off her deep mother-daughter love in front of Niu Niu, acts condescendingly, and wants to deliberately suppress Niu Niu and make her feel inferior?
That depends on whether Chen Baomei agrees.
Chen Baomei said with a sullen face, "Don't act so condescending and give alms. All your food, clothing, and daily expenses are provided by Niuniu's parents. How dare you give Niuniu something you don't want as a favor? You're just a pheasant occupying the magpie's nest. Our Niuniu doesn't want your used things."
"Mom." Shen Jiao looked at Wu Wenwan with tears in her eyes.
"I just feel sorry for my sister, why would grandma say that to me?"
Wu Wenwan disagreed, "Old lady, Jiaojiao is just a child. It's rare for her to have such a heart. It's normal for her to be inconsiderate. Why do you have to misinterpret her meaning?"
"Since she's young and inconsiderate, what about you adults? Are you just going to watch her give Niuniu a bunch of rags that she doesn't even want?"
Shen Qin still had to rush to work and didn't want to wait here for them to argue over a small matter.
He said to Wu Wenwan, "Okay, when you have time, go buy two new sets of clothes for the child and send them over."
Wu Wenwan curled her lips and said, "I'm busy at work, and I have to take care of the children when I get home. How can I have time to go out shopping?"
She would not spend money on this child before anything was decided.
Shen Qin had no choice but to check the time. "Let's talk about it later, Mom. We're leaving first."
Chen Jiao turned around, gave Lu Caoniu a provocative smile, and walked away triumphantly.
Lu Caoniu lowered her head and twisted her rough fingers together.
"Grandma, I don't need new clothes."
It was still unknown whether she was their biological daughter, and she didn't want them to quarrel over her.
Chen Baomei: "When you get better, if they don't buy you clothes, grandma will take you shopping. I'll buy you lots of new clothes, more and prettier than that fake kid's."
Lu Caoniu has a pair of big dark eyes that are watery.
She asked anxiously, "Grandma, you're so good to me, what if I'm not your biological granddaughter?"
She was both excited and afraid.
They took such good care of her and bought her all kinds of delicious food.
No one had ever been so nice to her.
What if she is not their biological daughter? Will they be disappointed?
Chen Baomei replied firmly, "No matter what happens, you are my granddaughter."
Two paternity tests were done, one for Shen Jiao and Shen Qin, and the other for Lu Caoniu and Shen Qin.
In her previous life, Chen Baomei had also seen the appraisal report, and Lu Caoniu was her granddaughter.
"Don't think too much, just focus on healing."
Lu Caoniu tried hard to smile and nodded.
At the end of the month, the money from selling the pigs was collected, and Chen Baomei asked Shen Yin how much it cost to ask someone to do the job.
Chen Yin didn't say much, just told her to stop transferring it, since she wasn't short of money anyway.
Chen Baomei had no choice but to transfer 20,000 yuan to her.
Chen Yin also knew that Lu Caoniu was almost beaten to death, so she did not take the money and returned it to Chen Baomei.
"Save it for my eldest niece to spend it on. It'll be a gift from her aunt."
Even if the identification report had not come out, Shen Yin, like Chen Baomei, was certain that Lu Caoniu was Shen Qin's biological daughter.
The reason is simple, it's because this matter is so mysterious that the dream actually coincides with reality.
Chen Yin felt that it might really be the spirit of their ancestors appearing.
What our ancestors told us is the truth!
This daughter is different from the son. The son keeps asking her for money, but the daughter doesn't want the money even if you give her money, and she even worries that you don't have money to spend.
Chen Baomei felt very relieved. Fortunately, she had not treated her daughter badly in her previous life. She gave her nearly three million yuan in demolition compensation and left her a house.
Three days passed quickly and Lu Caoniu's appraisal report came out.
Shen Qin went to get it.
After receiving the report, he called Wu Wenwan and asked her to bring her two children to the hospital.
Wu Wenwan rushed over with Chen Jiao and Wu Hui.
Seeing the appraisal report in Shen Qin's hand, she hurriedly asked:
"What was the result?"
