nChu Yun town. This was Zhuo Ya’s hometown.
nShe came from a country where resources were scarce, but she had a pretty face, which gave her the capital to establish herself in a big city.
nAlthough she appeared subservient in Jiang Mansion and did not have the bearing of a mistress, Zhuo Ya was not a woman without a brain.
nOn the contrary, she was very smart. Otherwise, she would not have been able to oust Jiang Yuxiao’s mother, who came from a prestigious family, and become the new mistress of Jiang Mansion.
nAt that time, Jiang Huifeng’s mother was still alive.
nThe old lady yearned to have a grandson, but after Jiang Yuxiao’s mother gave birth to her, she did not get pregnant for a long time. Moreover, she was extremely proud and conceited, and did not take the old lady’s request seriously.
nZhuo Ya was a nurse who took care of the old lady.. When the old lady found out that she was getting along with her son, she did not mind at all. She even turned a blind eye to it.
nIt was not until Zhuo Ya became pregnant and was found to be carrying a son that the old lady used all means to force Jiang Huifeng to divorce his wife. Then, she married him to Zhuo Ya.
nNot only did Zhuo Ya give birth to a son, but she also gave birth to a pair of twins. Her brother came out a few minutes earlier than her sister.

nHaving a grandson to continue the bloodline was like a task that had to be completed. Not long after Jiang Ru and Jiang Yi were born, the old lady, who had been in poor health, passed away with satisfaction.
nWhen the child was three years old, Jiang Huifeng realized that his son still could not speak. He brought him to the hospital many times for a check-up, but they all said that he was born with a mute disease that could not be cured.
nJiang Yuxiao told her mother about this matter, and Jiang Huifeng was met with revenge from his ex-wife. She spread the news that Jiang Ru was born with a mute disease, causing Jiang Huifeng to become a laughingstock in the upper class of S City.
nLater, he asked Zhuo Ya to send the twins to Chu Yun town.
nOriginally, he only wanted to send away the disabled son, but the three-year-old Jiang Yi cried and refused to leave her brother, so she temporarily stayed in Chu Yun town.
nWhen Jiang Yi was about to go to primary school at the age of eight, Zhuo Ya came to pick her up, but Jiang Yi refused to leave, unless they brought her brother back too.
nAfter so much time had passed, the rumors about the Jiang family in the upper class had long disappeared. Considering that they were his blood after all, Jiang Huifeng still agreed to bring the twins back together.
nAt that time, Jiang Yi was in high spirits, looking forward to returning to her parents’ side with her brother.
nBut she didn’t expect that this was the beginning of all her nightmares.
n“Where is Granny Zeng?”
nThe roads in the town had become a little unfamiliar. Jiang Yi searched for a long time, but she couldn’t find the thatched cottage where she and her brother had stayed, and Granny Zeng was the person entrusted to take care of them.
n“What Granny Zeng?”
nThe villagers saw Gong Xueming in a suit and tie, and this beautiful doll-like little girl, so they couldn’t help but be a little reserved.
nJiang Yi thought about it carefully and said, “I think her name is Zeng Fangying.”
n“Fangying.”
nThe villagers came to a sudden realization, and then their expressions became downcast.
n
n
n“The house collapsed. Her son took her over. Her daughter-in-law… Sigh!”
n“Where is her son’s house?”
n“It’s at the end of the village, next to the pig farm.”
n“Can you take us there?”
nJiang Yi took a look at Gong Xueming, and he tactfully handed a few hundred-dollar bills to a villager.
n“That much?”
nThe honest villager withdrew his hand and looked at them warily, not daring to accept the money.
n“Just follow me there. There’s no need… there’s no need for so much money.”
n“Take it. It’s not counterfeit.”
nThe beautiful girl’s eyes were cold. Although she was young, when her dark almond eyes looked at you, you would unconsciously listen to her words.
