The only reason anyone could recognize Li Jumei was because the woman looked at her with tears in her eyes, her gaze filled with excitement and restraint.
Speaking of which, when Luo Yueqin and her husband met Li Jumei and her husband, they gave Li Jumei a recent photo of "Song Lan".
The "Song Lan" in the photo is seventeen or eighteen years old, with her hair styled in a princess style, wearing a dress, and smiling gently and sweetly.
"……Why!"
Realizing what was happening, Li Jumei quickly responded.
"mom!"
A male voice rang out, and then the owner of the voice walked to Li Jumei's side and stood there. He first glanced at Song Jiaojiao, and then turned his gaze to Zhu Guihua: "Aunt Guihua, can you stop bothering my mother all the time? You can't scold my mother or beat her, so why don't you learn your lesson and always try to make a sense of presence in front of my mother?"
Those who know the situation will just see it as entertainment, but those who don't will think you have some ulterior motive towards my mother!
"Pah! What could I possibly have feelings for your mother? You brat, I bet you're just like your mother said, 'You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth!'"
Zhu Guihua felt extremely embarrassed. She glared at the other person, pretended that nothing had happened, carried her farm tools, squeezed through the crowd, and called the women she was on good terms with to go to work.
"You idiot, hurry up and help your sister push the cart!"
Li Jumei slapped the young man next to her on the back.
"Hello, Second Brother, I am your sister Song Lan."
With a smile, Song Lan greeted the young man who was looking directly at her.
"Hello...!"
He had seen his sister's photo before, but he never expected that... his little sister, whom his family thought would never return to the village to acknowledge them, would actually appear in front of him today.
Song Qinghui grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, and chuckled foolishly. His sister was really beautiful, even more beautiful than in the photos!
Taking the bicycle from Song Lan, Song Qinghui raised his voice at a thin, dark-skinned young man not far away and said, "Shuanzi, go to the brigade headquarters and call my dad home. Tell him my sister Lanlan is back!"
"Okay! I'm going right now!"
The young man whom Song Qinghui called Shuanzi was actually named Song Xiaoshuan. He was the same age as Song Qinghui and the two were childhood friends. However, Song Xiaoshuan had always regarded Song Qinghui as his boss.
It should be noted that Song Qinghui was the second child of Li Jumei and her husband. He graduated from junior high school, disliked working in the fields, and spent his days wandering around with his friends.
The villagers called Song Qinghui and his gang good-for-nothings.
This has caused Li Jumei and her husband a lot of headaches in recent years!
But then again, Song Qinghui is good-looking, and he and his brothers all inherited the best features from their parents. He also has fair skin, well, that fair skin is also inherited from his father.
Anyway, with Song Qinghui's good looks, everyone praises him when he goes out, but when people think about him wandering around aimlessly all day, they either shake their heads or mutter, "What a waste of such a good-looking face!"
In terms of age, Song Qinghui is 21 this year.
Because of his bad reputation, he is still single.
"Uncle, thank you for leading me into the village and finding my mother!"
Song Lan then turned her gaze to a farmer in his fifties, and thanked him sincerely.
"You silly child, there's no need to thank me. I'm so happy that you're back to see your parents today!"
With a casual wave of his hand, Captain Song Tieniu's dark face was full of smiles. He said to Li Jumei, "Hurry up and take your daughter home. She must be tired. Let her rest at home!"
Li Jumei smiled and said, "Captain, thank you so much! Come over to my house for dinner sometime!"
"What's there to eat?! It's nothing, don't try to distance yourself from me!"
With his hands behind his back, the brigade leader looked at the remaining commune members and educated youth and said, "Aren't you going to work? Are you waiting to starve in the future?"
Immediately, the commune members and educated youth who had been standing still picked up their farm tools and left.
"Thank you, sister!"
Song Lan was thanking several children who were about six or seven years old.
When we arrived at the village entrance, the brigade leader was ringing a bell under the old locust tree, and several children were squatting on the ground playing with pebbles.
Seeing this, Song Lan asked the brigade leader where Song Sanhe lived. After learning who she was, the brigade leader said he would take her home.
Several children surrounded Song Lan with curiosity. Some of them, who were not shy, called Song Lan "Fairy Sister" and said they wanted to take her into the village with the brigade leader.
Unexpectedly, when the group reached the center of the village, they saw that the village road was crowded with people.
The captain told Song Lan who the two women arguing were. Several children tried to rush into the crowd to call for Li Jumei, but Song Lan raised her index finger to shush them because she saw Song Jiaojiao standing in the crowd and wanted to see what the other party would do.
As a result, the scene described earlier occurred.
Song Jiaojiao feigns innocence!
Song Jiaojiao refuses to acknowledge her adoptive parents!
Song Jiaojiao is deliberately trying to smear her!
This was intolerable, and Song Lan interrupted the other person from continuing their act.
"What gives you the right to say that about me?"
Song Jiaojiao felt utterly humiliated. She stood rooted to the spot, tears streaming down her face, staring intently at Song Lan: "Was I not telling the truth? This isn't over until you apologize to me today!"
"To apologize to you?"
Song Lan's expression was cold, and her tone was sarcastic: "It's broad daylight, you can dream about waiting until nightfall!"
"you……"
Song Jiaojiao's lips trembled with anger.
"If you don't want to humiliate yourself, you'd better shut up and go do your thing!"
Leaving those words behind, Song Lan turned her gaze back to Li Jumei: "Mom, let's go home." She didn't want to be laughed at like this, even if she wasn't at fault, she was still involved in the incident, and if people started watching her again, wouldn't she really become a laughingstock?
"Okay, let's go home. Mom will take you home right now!"
Li Jumei wiped her eyes, grabbed Song Lan's hand with her other hand, beckoned Song Qinghui to follow, and headed towards her home.
"Mom... are you still my mom?"
Song Jiaojiao shouted as she watched Li Jumei's retreating figure, "Song Lan bullied me, and you did nothing about it. Now you're bullying me with her... and my second brother too. How can you treat me like this?"
Stopping in her tracks, Li Jumei turned to meet Song Jiaojiao's tearful gaze. With a stern face, she said, "Don't forget what you said. I'm not your mother, and our family has absolutely nothing to do with you now!"
On the day Luo Yueqin and her husband met with Li Jumei and her husband, Song Jiaojiao was with them. When the two families said goodbye, she asked her biological parents to wait a moment, while she asked Li Jumei and her husband to go aside and talk.
"From this day forward, I am no longer your daughter. I will not visit you, and you should not look for me!"
With a stern face, in front of her adoptive parents Li Jumei and Song Sanhe, Song Jiaojiao uttered a curt remark, then turned and ran back to Luo Yueqin and her husband. The three of them walked away chatting and laughing.
At that moment, Li Jumei and her husband were heartbroken.
They felt they had raised their daughter with great care and affection, only to find that they had wasted their time. However, when Song Jiaojiao recently returned to Shisong Village for a rural outreach program and encountered the family on the village road, they pretended not to see them.
