He said that they were alone, and when he came back in the future, he didn't know whether he would be able to see the three of them.
She also knew that Xiangxiang was telling the truth. Not only Old Man Li, but even her mother-in-law, Old Lady Li, would not let her live with Mingyu and Minghao. In the end, she did not go out to look for her eldest son and daughter.
What happened later confirmed their guess. Xiang Xi encountered a big beast when he went up the mountain and accidentally broke his leg.
She had been working hard for many years, her daughter and eldest son were missing, and her husband had a broken leg. Under these multiple blows, she, who was already in poor health, finally fell ill and could not afford to live.
Originally, their family lived in the old house and had always been treated like oxen and horses. Xiangqi's leg was broken and he could no longer work in the fields, but he still had to eat every day.
She herself fell ill and could not get out of bed, let alone work.
The twin sons were only six years old, and both were too young, but even their grandmother, Old Lady Li, did not let them go. She arranged endless work for them every day, either collecting firewood or cutting grass for pigs.
Their small bodies bear burdens that are not suitable for their age, but even so, Old Mrs. Li still cannot tolerate them.
In order to get the fifty taels of silver that Li Jian asked for to study and become a disciple, she even thought of selling her two sons.
It would have been fine if they just sold her, but they also had no conscience and sold her to such a filthy place.
If their daughter had not returned in time, they would not know where their two well-behaved and sensible sons would have been sold to and what kind of miserable lives they would have led.
At the most desperate moment of their family, the appearance of their daughter was like the first ray of sunshine in the morning that broke through the thick fog, bringing them hope and giving them the courage to live. The two younger sons were also spared the fate of being sold.
I don’t know if it was God who sent his daughter back to save them because he saw how hard their family had been living in the past decade or so.
After their daughter came back, their family's life changed dramatically. Not only was Xiangqi's leg healed, but her weak and sickly body, which she had suffered from not taking a full month of confinement after giving birth, was also cured by her daughter.
The two younger sons had been hungry for many years and had weak bodies. After their living conditions at home improved, they gradually gained weight and grew taller.
These alone made her extremely grateful.
Because my biological daughter, who I haven't raised for more than ten years, is so outstanding.
Not only did they renovate their old house, but they also started a locust business. In addition to Xinghua Village, villagers from the other six villages in Qingshan Town also benefited from it. Everyone made a lot of money, and their family also received gratitude from the villagers.
Normally, whenever he went out, he would greet her in a friendly manner when he met villagers, which earned her the respect of everyone.
In addition, her daughter also used the money to build a new house. She had seen the new house and found that it was the first of its kind not only in Xinghua Village but also in the entire Qingshan Town.
The most important thing is that his three sons went to study in the academy. Even if they did not pass the exam in the future, they would be able to find a good job to support their family, which would definitely be better than their parents.
This made her feel extremely grateful, but also extremely sad.
Because whenever she thought about everyone's changes, they were all brought about by her daughter.
Her daughter has not been by her side since she was a child. She has never drunk a sip of her milk. She did not accompany her daughter to grow up. Whether her daughter was babbling, learning to walk, or growing up and becoming sensible, she was not involved in any of it.
When she found out that she was pregnant and her long-awaited daughter had been switched, there was always a moment of incomparable devastation in her heart.
She didn't know what to do, how to face her daughter, how to get along with her, and she knew nothing about her daughter's previous life.
