Wen family.
Wen Chenghan and his wife were having a small family meeting with his elder brother and sister-in-law.
"Brother, Manman already knows her life experience." He sighed, looking a little depressed.
Wen family's eldest wife, Du Shuangyu, has been busy with company matters lately. She feels like she's missed a lot. "How did you know?"
"This child secretly contacted her uncle Zheng Jiaming and privately found someone to do a DNA test." He also got a copy of the report.
Wang Hui added what she had investigated, "I privately asked a friend to check her bank card transactions. She spent 21 million during this period. The account holder is named Jin Xinting, one of the nurses who was bribed 18 years ago. She should have fled abroad a few days ago to blackmail Manman." They found someone abroad to set a trap for Jin Xinting's son.
The Wen family suddenly fell into silence.
After a while, Wen Chengzhou said, "It seems this kid is determined to keep this a secret." His tone was filled with disappointment in Zhou Man. Knowing everything she had was stolen, she still tried to pretend nothing happened, ignoring the suffering of the Zhou family's true eldest daughter. Wouldn't her conscience pang in her dreams at midnight?
If she took the initiative to tell them about this, considering that she had been unaware of it for so many years, would they, as the elders, be so cruel as to kick her out of the house? After all, they had watched her grow up and loved her for so many years. The family relationship between them was not fake. For a family as powerful as the Zhou family, raising another daughter would not be a big deal. It would just be an extra set of dishes and chopsticks, and an extra dowry.
Yet, she made the most disappointing choice for them. Wen Chengzhou even suspected that Zhou Man's previous understanding and innocence was just an act.
Du Shuangyu said calmly: "She is greedy and can't bear to give up the title and status of the Zhou family's true daughter."
In the eyes of outsiders, there's a difference between an adopted daughter and a real daughter. In the past, this niece often said in public that she didn't care about money or status, only family. Her words sounded nice, but her true colors showed when things got tough.
Wen Chenghan let out a long breath, "Manman may have encountered this suddenly, and since she is still young, she may not be able to understand it. Give her some time to think it over."
Wen Chengzhou made the final decision, "Let's wait until December 24th. If she doesn't want to talk about it by that day, we will make it public and let Miaomiao go home openly."
I hope Manman won’t let down their relatives.
Wang Hui wore a nonchalant expression. She felt her husband was too naive to have such high hopes for Manman. Because she lacked a filter, she could see Manman's flaws more clearly than her husband and older brother. Manman looked approachable, but she was actually quite arrogant and hated being outshined. As for Miaomiao, she needed to send a few more bodyguards. Although Manman hadn't yet linked her to Miaomiao, what if? In a cornered situation, who knew what she might do.
…
In the following days, Zhou Man began to pave her own way after seeing the DNA test report. She gradually gave a lot of money to her uncle, asking him to investigate the whereabouts of the real eldest daughter of the Zhou family and help her completely solve this hidden danger.
According to her uncle, her biological mother, Tao Xia Ran, didn't kill the young lady for some reason, but took her away to an unknown location. At first, he, as her cousin, was able to contact her biological mother, but later there was no news.
Zhou Man wanted to sigh when she thought about this. Because of this incident, her small treasury was basically emptied, with only a few hundred thousand left for pocket money.
She had to find a legitimate reason for this expense! Her parents loved her, but they also kept a tight rein on her. If they ever found out she had no money in her card, she'd be screwed. She had to come up with a flawless excuse.
Zhou Man quickly came up with an idea and decided to let Shi Miao take the blame for her. During a family gathering, she sat down in front of her mother, next to her, and said affectionately, "Mom, I've already thought of a gift for Miao Miao~"
Her expression of seeking credit made the Zhou family father and son look doting - Manman's proud expression, as if her tail was raised, was so adorable.
Zhou Liheng's voice was incredibly soft, "What gift have you prepared?" Could it be a custom-made doll? Manman has always had a childlike innocence.
The Zhou family and the Wen family are related by marriage. For the sake of his two brothers-in-law, Zhou Liheng plans to give them two shops as gifts.
Zhou Man blinked her big, watery eyes. "I heard Yanzi say that Miaomiao's fortune-telling is harmful to her health, and my aunt and the others are very worried about her health. I thought of donating money in Miaomiao's name to accumulate merit for her. This way, I'm sure she will recover her health as soon as possible and live a long life."
Zhou Yuntang sighed helplessly. His Manman was too kind, actually going this far for Shi Miao. If Shi Miao didn't treat Manman well, he would have lost his conscience.
Zhou Liheng asked her, "How much did you donate?"
Zhou Man looked innocent. "I think he donated more than 20 million. I don't remember exactly."
Zhou Yuntang was silent. His silly sister! How could she be so beloved?
Wen Ying asked, "Hasn't the money in your card been almost used up?"
Her daughter usually doesn't count her money, so the 20 million yuan would probably empty her coffers. But Wen Ying was still very pleased that her daughter had such a thoughtful gesture. Donating to charity is a good thing.
Zhou Liheng patted her head and said, "Kid, donating one million is enough. Why did you donate all the money? Don't come to me and cry if you have no money to spend."
Zhou Man pouted. "I won't cry. Besides, Dad loves me so much, how could he bear to see me without money to spend. Right, Dad?"
As she spoke, she pulled Zhou Liheng's sleeve and hummed and acted coquettishly. Her cute and adorable appearance made the Zhou family love her very much.
Zhou Liheng smiled. "Since you said so, if I don't give you the money, I will be sorry for your trust."
Zhou Liheng immediately transferred some money to Zhou Man, and Zhou Yuntang and Wen Ying also gave her pocket money.
Zhou Man raised the corner of her mouth and secretly gave herself a thumbs up for her cleverness. It seemed that she had passed this level smoothly.
Wen Ying was very proud of her daughter's kindness and told this to her sister-in-law and best friend Wang Hui.
Wang Hui's expression became subtle. "Manman donated a large sum of money for Miaomiao?"
Wen Ying nodded. "I was worried that they wouldn't get along well before, but I underestimated Manman's generosity. They are both good children."
Wang Hui sneered inwardly. Zhou Man was truly impressive. She'd actually let Miaomiao take the blame for her, even earning her a good reputation. Why hadn't she realized she was so resourceful before? Wait, hadn't her silly daughter often taken the blame for Zhou Man before?
Thinking of this, Wang Hui felt suffocated and even angrier.
She was not in a hurry to expose the matter. She would wait until Miaomiao's identity was made public and then expose the matter. She wanted to see how Zhou Man could have the nerve to appear in front of Miaomiao!
