Chapter 268 There is a hidden story
Qin Zhigang listened to his wife say these words and sighed deeply. It was over, everything was exposed. No matter what she said, the children now knew that she was not from the Qin family.
Lin Xiaoxia let go of Li Xiulan, held Lin Mei's arm and said, "What they said is not true. They found you in the car when you were lost. At that time, you could already tell the names of your parents and your home address, but they didn't call the police or look for your family. Instead, they selfishly hid you. I have the missing person notice that your family posted when you were lost. Our family is not poor, so there is no possibility of abandonment." As she spoke, she took out all these and placed them in front of Lin Mei.
Lin Mei stared at her own photo and the missing person notices in the newspapers. She was stunned. Although she had heard a lot of gossip and had considered that she wasn't a biological child, she had never imagined it would be so complicated.
At this time, Qin Zhigang quickly said to Lin Mei, "Zhao Di, don't listen to what they say. They didn't want you in the first place. It was your sister who sent you as a guest. She told your mother that you were one of many children, so they didn't want you anymore. Now that you've grown up, they want you back to serve them. They're making up all this stuff to trick you."
When Lin Xiaoxia heard this, she discovered that Ai Zhu was still hiding something. It was this woman to whom she handed Lin Mei. No wonder the people in the car where Lin Mei was lost had no suspicion at all. This Ai Zhu really took after Meng Qiuju. She had been so bad since she was so young. She would settle the score with her when she got back.
She asked Qin Zhigang, "How old was the child who abandoned her? He couldn't have been more than ten, right? Even if someone really abandoned their child, would they let an eight or nine-year-old abandon a four or five-year-old?"
At this moment, Li Xiulan's mind was filled with memories of that day.
At that time, she really felt that it was God's will. Several years of infertility made her seek medical treatment everywhere.
By chance, she heard that there was a Chinese medicine clinic in Lingyuan that was very good at treating infertility, so she went there on purpose. The doctor told her that the possibility of her pregnancy was only 10%. She felt very uncomfortable after the consultation. After getting on the bus, she sat alone in the last row, next to the window on the right.
There weren't many people on the bus, and the four or five rows at the back were empty, except for her.
At this time, a girl of eight or nine years old got on the bus with a little girl of four or five years old. The older one put the younger one in an empty seat on the left side of the last row, gave her a bunch of candies, and said he would come to pick her up after she finished eating.
At that time, Li Xiulan thought that the child was ignorant and reminded the older one that if the car left, your sister would be lost.
As a result, the older one whispered to her that there were many children at home and they didn't want the younger sister anymore, so he asked her to go out and throw the baby out. Then the older one ran out of the car.
At that time, Li Xiulan felt that this child was a gift from God to her. People said that if she adopted a little girl and gave her a nice name, she might get pregnant. The doctor's judgment made her despair, but the appearance of Zhaodi ignited her hope, so she sat next to the little girl and chatted with her. She watched the car leave without saying a word.
Later, the little girl started crying, so she coaxed her. Then, when they arrived at the next highway rest area, she took the child down, changed trains, and returned to Bincheng.
In fact, she also knew that there was something wrong with the child being lost. The child was well-dressed, and who would raise a child until he was four or five years old and then lose him? They would not let one child lose another child. Moreover, the older child could buy so much candy and had a lot of pocket money. Both children were well-dressed. These were all questions.
But at that time she wanted to keep the child, so she told herself that the child was unwanted. No matter what the child said, she would not listen and forcibly took her home.
After recalling all this, Li Xiulan said to Lin Mei: "Zhao Di, it was indeed your own sister who abandoned you at that time. You have to believe me." This was the only thing that made her feel right now.
Lin Xiaoxia said to Lin Mei, "Your family truly never intended to abandon you. Do you think if they really wanted to abandon you, they would let a child do it? If you don't believe me, we can go back to the police station in Lingyuan City and check the criminal records to see if your family reported you missing. We can also check the newspapers for the missing person notices from that year. They were in the newspapers for over a month, and there's a lot of evidence. Your family practically turned the entire city upside down looking for you."
Lin Xiao quickly took out the photo album he brought with him: "Look, there are a lot of photos of you when you were a child here. How could there be so many if they didn't want you? You have the most photos in the family. Look at this one, the birthmark on the shoulder is the same as yours, right?"
This birthmark completely dispelled Lin Mei's doubts, because the birthmark in the hundred-day photo was exactly the same as her own, and there were also several photos of her as a child wearing skirts, which showed the birthmark.
At this time, Lin Xiaoxia said to Lu Jingshen: "Jingshen, you and Yun Chao drive to their village to call the police."
Without waiting for Lu Jingshen to speak, Li Xiulan knelt down in front of Lin Xiaoxia and said, "I was selfish back then. I didn't have a child, so I thought this was a gift from God. I thought it was a child sent to me by God. Picking up a child at the station was a normal thing at that time. What was wrong with me picking her up? Over the years, I have treated her like my own. If you don't believe me, ask Zhaodi. I treat her no differently than my own children."
Lin Mei wiped away her tears when she thought of how good Li Xiulan had been to her over the years. She couldn't accept this reality for a moment.
Lin Xiaoxia put her hand on her sister's shoulder and patted her gently with comfort.
Then she turned to Li Xiulan and said, "No matter how good you are to my sister, it's immoral and even illegal. And is what you think is good really good? Xiaoya isn't going to school anymore, right? Look at our family. My eldest brother works in the bank, my second brother is a doctor, and every one of our children is very talented. And my father is the director of the Forestry Bureau. Do you really think you can give her more than our family gives her?"
These made Li Xiulan open her mouth in surprise, because she didn't know that her daughter's family was so good.
But she was really good to this daughter: "We only have this one daughter in our family. Although our family conditions are not as good as yours, we can give her all the good things we have."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "This has nothing to do with whether you treat her well or not. You named her Zhaodi because your family wanted a son, so you can imagine what you're feeling. I don't want to waste time on this. I can only call the police."
At this time, Qin Zhigang sat on the edge of the kang and also took a hard line: "We picked up Zhaodi, we didn't break the law. We picked her up and raised her. How could we have done anything wrong? The grace of raising a child is not as great as the grace of giving birth to her. We have the grace of raising her. What's the point of calling the police?"
Lin Xiaoxia said, "When you picked her up, she could have told us her parents' names and even her home address, but you didn't call the police right away. Instead, you confirmed whether she was an abandoned child and took her away. You're breaking the law."
"We don't understand. She was thrown away, and we picked her up. We're not wrong." Qin Zhigang was certain of this.
Lin Xiaoxia said: "Then let's take legal action. Our family has the ability to sue."
Li Xiulan was frightened at this time. She said to Lin Mei, "Zhao Di, you can't just watch us go through the lawsuit, right? You know how your parents treat you. You can't be ungrateful."
