"Xuancao is back! Let Dad see what good things you brought him."
"And what about your older brother! You go out to work as a maid or servant, and if you don't bring back anything for your older brother, I won't let you off the hook!"
"..."
The father and son, abandoning their usual affection, rushed forward and snatched the bundle from Xuan Cao's hands, starting to rummage through it.
Seeing this, Ji Zichen stepped forward to stop him, but...
Xuancao stopped him and shook her head at him.
Her father, her brother...
That's how it is.
She was used to it long ago.
"sorry."
Xuancao lowered her head, not daring to look at Ji Zichen, and only apologized softly, "I'm sorry you had to see this."
Ji Zichen shook his head upon hearing this.
Realizing that she couldn't see his movements because she was looking down, he quickly said, "It's okay, your family is my family too."
Although this family is clearly not worth it.
However, for the sake of his fiancée, he could endure it a little longer.
Soon, Ji Zichen could no longer tolerate it, because...
After Zhao Tiezhu and his son finished rummaging through Xuancao's bundle, they set their eyes on Xuancao with greedy expressions.
"Is this all the stuff you brought back to feed beggars?"
As Zhao Tiezhu spoke, he moved closer to Xuancao, "Do you have anything else on you? Money? Tickets?"
Zhao Tengfei: "Definitely!"
As the father and son spoke, they reached out their hands to the daylily.
Daylily: "!!!"
Upon seeing the two outstretched hands, he instinctively flinched.
Seeing this, Ji Zichen pulled Xuancao behind him.
What are you doing?
He shouted angrily.
Zhao Tiezhu and his son were so frightened that they stood there stunned.
Just then.
A neighbor rushed over and stood at the Zhao family's door, shouting at the daylily:
"Daylily!"
"Xuan Cao, you've come to the wrong house! This isn't your home!"
"You're not Zhao's biological child at all; you're Dr. Yu's daughter!"
"Xuan Cao, come out quickly..."
"..."
I heard a commotion at the door.
Ji Zichen was speechless upon hearing this.
A look of utter confusion on his face.
Daylily: "??!!"
As if struck by lightning.
He stiffly turned his head to look at the shouting neighbor.
"Aunt Big Foot, Grandma Wang..."
She looked at everyone with a bewildered expression, stammering, "What do you mean I went to the wrong house? What do you mean I'm not a biological daughter of the Zhao family?"
The Zhao family...
That's her home!
Her home where she grew up!
Although her parents treated her badly, often beating and scolding her...
Although I was often hungry and cold, and suffered all sorts of injustices, I sometimes thought how much better it would be if I weren't a child of the Zhao family, but...
She was just thinking about it.
Why did the neighbors say that?
Did they see through her little scheme and make fun of her?
Xuancao looked bewildered.
The neighbors looked at each other in bewilderment.
"you do not know?"
"That shouldn't be! Dr. Yu went to Jijia Village specifically to get the address, saying he wrote to you about it!"
"Xuan Cao, you're not Zhao's biological daughter at all..."
"..."
Zhao Tiezhu and his son snapped out of their daze and glared angrily at their neighbor.
"Xuancao, don't listen to their nonsense, you are our family's child."
"Did you bring the money back? If you did, hand it over now!"
"..."
The father and son anxiously reached out their hands, approaching the daylily.
Upon seeing this, Ji Zichen thought: ...
Unsure of the situation, he pulled Xuancao towards the door.
At that very moment.
Upon receiving the news, Qin Weiguo and Xue Ru rushed over and squeezed into the Zhao family home.
The couple: "!!!"
They glanced at the young man and woman who had retreated in front of them...
