Chapter 827 - Mother And Daughter Reunite (8)
"When you were born, my mother took something that belonged to your mother. If we make a fuss in the Bai family and the news gets out, it will make life difficult for you. Do you hear me?"
Zhang Xiaohui had swapped her child mainly for her own benefit. She had not pitied the child and desired a better life for her in a wealthy family. She was thinking that if her daughter could enter a household like that, she could depend on this rich daughter in the future and become a wealthy woman herself.
So she naturally retained some evidence.
She had some items that Zheng Min had brought with her when she gave birth.. They were simple items, but definitely personal in nature.
Zhang Xiaohui brought the items out. There was a pair of baby shoes and a handkerchief.
That year, she had personally taken them from Bai Youran.
The shoes were exquisitely stitched, and the material was excellent. They had clearly been specially made for a child. She had deliberately taken the shoes and allowed her own child to lie barefoot on the bed so that Zheng Min would think that someone else had stolen the child's shoes.
After all, it was a little place in the countryside. Nice things were scarce.
It was normal for someone to steal it.
Bai Youran's eyes widened when she saw the little pair of shoes. She turned pale!
The shoes belonged to a set of clothes she had worn when she was little. Her mother had personally made them for her.
At that time, the Bai family was doing fairly well and was quite wealthy. Many children were born to the family, but they were all boys. Later on, when her mother became pregnant, she thought that a boy would be the best because that would establish her position in the family. But as her stomach grew, an experienced old lady examined her and said it was a girl.
Her mother was rather worried, but since it was just the first child, she was not too anxious.
To her surprise, the Bai family was quite excited when they found out. After all, the family was not short of boys. A girl would be nice.
After all, it was an important family!
A girl could be used for a marriage alliance. That was a good thing!
Zheng Min had not expected such treatment, so her pregnancy passed happily. She even prepared especially nice clothes for the baby, including a set of clothes and shoes.
The clothes were still kept at home!
But as for the little shoes, her mother said that someone had stolen them, and she could not find them anymore.
The shoes were personally made by Zheng Min. But Zheng Min's handiwork was not very good. In fact, an old lady who was skilled in handicrafts slowly guided her before she completed them.
The old lady had done the more complicated stitches. She passed away shortly after that, so Zheng Min could not make another pair of shoes. She lacked the ability.
She could just make another set of clothes for the child, so she was not bothered about the shoes.
The little shoes were in exactly the same style as the little set of clothes at home. She could tell at a glance that they were a set.
Bai Youran stared fixedly at the shoes, her mind in turmoil.
Zhang Xiaohui said, "Do you see that? I'm your real mother. There's no need to doubt my words. When you get home, remember to give us two thousand yuan as soon as possible, do you understand? Right now, your younger sister and I are having a difficult life, so in the future, we have to depend on you. Don't worry. I will guard this secret forever. I want you to have a good life."
Gu Ruoqing smiled. "All right, hurry home! Don't forget to bring the money as soon as possible. If you dare to go back on your word, I'll immediately go to your home to look for you. Hmph!"
"I… I understand. Let me go back first. Then I'll bring you the money."
