"Changsheng is back. Why didn't you go home directly yesterday? The driver Lao Wang didn't pick him up from school. You don't know how worried I was." Wan Yunhua felt a little resentful. She didn't like her daughter going to her adoptive parents' home, but she couldn't say it directly, so she could only let the driver take the blame.
Changsheng ignored Wan Yunhua's little thoughts. After finally finding her biological daughter, she realized that Shen Baozhu, whom she had raised for twenty years, was not her biological daughter. Her parents-in-law, husband and eldest son all knew about it, but she was the only one who was kept in the dark. Of course, Shen Baozhu herself didn't know either, and she really thought she was the only eldest daughter of the Shen family.
If Changsheng had not been found, they would have lived their whole lives in confusion.
That year, Wan Yunhua had just finished her confinement and took her child to the park to play. She accidentally lost the child.
The Shen family was looking for the child frantically, but at that time the Shen family did not have the money they have now, and there was no surveillance system covering all directions, so it was difficult to find the child if he was lost.
Wan Yunhua blamed herself, and soon after giving birth, she began to suffer from depression and even self-harm. Her husband, Shen Changming, took care of his wife's health and went to the orphanage to adopt a fake daughter, telling her that the child was hers.
On the surface, the matter was resolved, but Chen Changming knew his child was still suffering. He simply quit his stable job and went into business. Finding someone was too expensive, but fortunately, he found his child before he died.
Just as they were preparing to have dinner, Shen Changming and his eldest son Shen Haoze came back.
"Didn't you say you had an appointment tonight?" Wan Yunhua stood up to take her husband's coat. Shen Baozhu also habitually wanted to get up to take Shen Haoze's coat, but when she saw Changsheng standing still like a mountain, she hesitated.
After this hesitation, the family of five prepared to eat.
"Let's postpone the social engagements. The kids are all at home this weekend, so it's lively for the family to have dinner together." Ever since Changsheng was brought back, whenever Changsheng was at home, the Shen family father and son would definitely go home for dinner.
As for the Shen family's grandparents, they both wanted to move in and live with their son's family, but since several generations of a family living together can easily lead to conflicts, the old couple held back.
I just come to see the kids every Sunday, and today is Saturday.
At the dinner table, no one spoke much, only Shen Changming would occasionally use the serving chopsticks to pick up food for Changsheng.
Seeing her husband taking care of their younger daughter, Wan Yunhua took care of her older daughter.
It wasn't that she wasn't close to her younger daughter; it was that she had single-handedly raised her older daughter. Losing her child left a psychological scar on her, and she became extra close to Baozhu. When her family's financial situation improved, she simply resigned from her job and stayed home to take care of Baozhu.
Therefore, in the whole family, she is the only one who has the deepest and most sincere feelings for Baozhu and gives the most.
Now that her biological child is back, she is extremely frightened. She doesn't know how to express her motherly love to Changsheng, nor does she know how to face Baozhu. She also has to find time to comfort Baozhu.
If we talk about the most pitiful child, Baozhu must be one of them.
After being the daughter of the Shen family for twenty years, she was suddenly told that she was not the child of this family. Except for her mother, everyone in the family knew about it. Those with poor mental strength would probably go crazy on the spot.
Wan Yunhua could not reveal her thoughts to her husband. Her husband's actions back then were for her, but now she said that she could not ignite such strong maternal love for her own child. She let her husband and Changsheng think whatever they wanted.
After the family finished dinner, Shen Baozhu tactfully went upstairs to rest.
It's not that she doesn't want to leave the Shen family, but the Shen family took her home and went through the formal adoption procedures. She is not a biological daughter now, but she is still an adopted daughter in name only.
Wan Yunhua followed the father and his two sons to the living room and turned on the TV. A brainless and melodramatic drama was being played, but it was quite effective in resolving the current awkwardness.
Shen Changming noticed his wife's restlessness, "Yunhua, go check on Baozhu. Changsheng is home, and Baozhu's emotions can't be ignored."
Wan Yunhua was more than happy to do so, and Baozhu had indeed been living a cautious life these days, which made her feel distressed.
Only the father and son were left in the living room. Shen Changming pushed the fruit in front of Changsheng and said, "Eat some fruit. Tell Aunt Shen what you like. You can buy it yourself. If you don't have enough money, tell me and your eldest brother."
"Thanks, Dad. I'm not picky about food, and the meals cooked at home are delicious too. I usually live and eat at school, so I don't have much to spend money on." With that unlimited supplementary card, you can never max it out no matter how much you swipe it. There's no such thing as not having enough money, Lao Shen!
Chen Changming didn't think so. His daughter had lived in such a small attic since she was a child. She had suffered so much. If she wasn't picky about food, it meant she hadn't had enough to eat or wear since she was a child. Which child wasn't picky about food? He just wanted to give his daughter everything good.
Even though my daughter grew up in a poor environment, look at how well she was raised. She's so graceful and graceful, and even got into the best university in the city. It makes me so proud no matter how I look at her.
As for his eldest son who graduated from Ivy League, he is not popular either.
Shen Haoze didn't know from the beginning that Shen Baozhu was not his biological sister. Shen Changming told him when he went to college abroad.
He felt that his eldest son, as the successor to the company, must know the truth. And if he couldn't find his daughter in his lifetime, he wanted his eldest son to continue the search.
Facts have proved that his decision was right. His eldest son was young and was exposed to new things and made friends with knowledgeable people. It was also because of him who contacted his friends and used those new methods to get his younger daughter back while unraveling the mystery.
Shen Changming didn't know how to talk to such a big little daughter, so he kicked his eldest son next to him.
Shen Haoze had no choice but to take over the baton of chatting.
"What does your sister want to do after graduation?" Changsheng studied education. Her adoptive parents thought it would be easy to find a job with this major and it would be stable for girls to work.
"Um, I haven't thought about it yet." Before, she would definitely apply to become a teacher after graduation, and work hard. Now that she has been found by the Shen family, once she has achieved financial freedom, she can actually lie back for a while.
"If you like teaching, I have some connections here." No matter which school he wants to go to, his brother will build a few buildings for him. He doesn't believe that he can't get a formal place in the school.
"Um, I don't really want to face the kids." I didn't want to go to work, but I didn't dare say it.
"How about studying abroad?" Shen Changming felt that their family was rich. Shen Baozhu's grades in high school were not very good, but now she can study in a famous foreign university. The Shen family also gave a lot of money to that school.
Hey, studying abroad?
It feels okay.
Changsheng nodded, "Okay."
The Shen family's father and son have been secretly organizing their connections to figure out how to send their child to a prestigious school for further studies.
In the room on the second floor.
"Baozhu, have you booked your flight back to school?" Shen Baozhu had come back from abroad specifically to recognize her relatives. Although she had spent a lot of money to get in, the Shen family couldn't just spoil their children blindly when raising them. They couldn't waste time at home when they were supposed to be in school.
