"Stop it, all of you, stop it! What are you doing? Brother Jiang, control your wife. This child was swapped by mistake, can you blame us? Besides, how the child was swapped back then, don't you have any clue? If it weren't for your greed for wealth, how could our child end up in a family like this?
Xiao Xiao, come out, your parents are here to find you.
Come out quickly."
Fang Zhiyuan tried to reason emotionally and rationally.
As long as Jiang Xiaoxiao comes out, it's easy to handle.
What does an eighteen-year-old child understand?
Seeing parents as dignified as theirs, wouldn't she immediately lean towards them?
Don't believe that a child born in a worker's family wouldn't be moved by the difference when seeing Fang Xiaohui.
What we need is her to be moved.
"Xiao Xiao, I'm mom. Eighteen years ago, this couple, with blackened hearts, swapped our daughter with theirs, which is you. Recently, we met a nurse at the hospital who explained the situation to us.
They certainly didn't expect someone would notice when they did this sneakily. They were cruel for their daughter's sake to live a good life.
My poor daughter, come out to see mom, and mom will take you home."
Ye Hua spoke emotionally, moved to tears herself.
Fan Xiuying was anxious.
She rushed forward to tear at Ye Hua, "What nonsense are you talking? What lies are you spouting? Who secretly swapped the child? Why would our child be swapped secretly? I'll tear your mouth apart for speaking nonsense; that's my biological child."
For the first time in her life, Fan Xiuying felt she couldn't explain.
How did her biological daughter become someone else's?
Fan Xiuying fiercely grabbed Ye Hua's hair, attempting to tear her mouth.
"Stop!"
A voice stopped everyone.
Ye Hua and Fang Zhiyuan delightfully saw a young girl, standing barefoot at the entrance.
They instantly realized it was Jiang Xiaoxiao.
The girl actually didn't resemble Ye Hua much, her mouth and nose slightly resembled Fang Zhiyuan.
But other features didn't match.
"Xiao Xiao! I'm your mom!"
"Xiao Xiao! I'm your dad."
The couple called out in unison.
Fang Zhiyuan was genuinely moved upon seeing his biological daughter.
After all, she is a child of his bloodline; he couldn't really remain indifferent.
Ye Hua, however, showed some disdain in her eyes; if this daughter still had some use, she wouldn't hesitate to take her back.
Honestly, it wasn't an option.
If there were any other way, she wouldn't have come.
This damn girl really has a stubborn life.
She survived pneumonia without dying.
Of course!
If she had died, where would her son find someone willing to replace him in the countryside now?
Thinking about this, Ye Hua squeezed out a few tears, looking just like a delicate white lotus.
"Xiao Xiao, I'm your mom, your biological mom. Child, you've suffered, mom is here to take you home."
The heartfelt way she looked could easily convince outsiders of her motherly feelings.
It was truly moving, bringing tears to those who watched.
Ye Hua reached out wanting to hold Jiang Xiaoxiao in her arms.
"Wait, Auntie, are you from Qingshan Hospital's collapsed south wall escape?"
A hand coldly pushed Ye Hua's hand away.
Ye Hua was quite embarrassed.
Everyone in the city knew about Qingshan Hospital, the most famous institution locally. What kind of hospital was it?
A mental hospital!
"What are you saying, child? Mom knows you harbor resentment, thinking mom hasn't come for you all these years. You don't know; mom has been kept in the dark by this heartless couple all these years. If it weren't for the kind-hearted nurse we met, mom wouldn't know that such a thing happened back then."
Ye Hua wanted to maintain her image as a good mother, so she tried to push the blame onto the Jiang couple.
"Wait! Auntie, this is just your side of the story. Besides, how can you prove I'm your daughter? Show some evidence, otherwise, mere words can't make me your daughter just because your lips say so.
Go out and ask if anyone would believe it?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao was quick-tongued, and Ye Hua was stupefied by her response.
Wasn't this supposed to be a tearful mother-daughter reunion scene?
How could this girl not play by the rules?
Fan Xiuying perked up immediately.
Her daughter had education, hitting the nail on the head.
"Right! Provide evidence; you can't just claim it! Without evidence, don't fabricate lies."
Her daughter spoke correctly, without evidence, how could they claim she's not her daughter?
Ye Hua was anxious.
She grabbed Fang Xiaohui.
"Look! Isn't she exactly like you? Doesn't that prove the issue? That's your child. That one is ours. Taking my daughter back is rightful. Xiao Xiao, see for yourself, isn't it?"
Fang Xiaohui looked embarrassed, knowing the matter was likely true, but she also had feelings for the Fang family over the years.
Understanding foster mother Ye Hua's plans, she knew she wouldn't really be sent back to that family.
Yet being treated this way by her foster mother was chilling.
Tears filled her eyes, pitifully on the verge of falling.
Fan Xiuying hesitated.
This girl in front indeed resembled her a bit; how could strangers look alike?
Jiang Xiaoxiao coldly laughed, pushing Fang Xiaohui away.
No matter how pitiful Fang Xiaohui looked now, she definitely wasn't a good person.
She was the one who advised Ye Hua back then.
A lot of the ideas that destroyed the Jiang family's prosperity were mostly from Fang Xiaohui.
Fang Xiaohui was ruthless.
Her biological parents, the Jiang couple, met their end in foreign lands.
She didn't care about them at all; there's no way she'd shed a tear, not a glance.
Even their ashes couldn't return home for burial.
At that time, Fang Xiaohui had the capability; she not only married into the renowned Song family but also had social status and connections, as long as Fang Xiaohui wanted it.
The Jiang couple wouldn't have ended so miserably.
But Fang Xiaohui didn't do anything.
It seemed the Jiang couple had no relation to her.
Under the guise of the Fang family's adopted daughter, she played the role of the protagonist in the tragic drama, capturing people's sympathy.
Yet she completely ignored her biological parents.
So why not be straightforward, stop forcing her as a daughter of the Jiang family.
"There are many people in the world who look alike; could they all be related? If you say so, this argument doesn't hold. If you're not convinced, visit our village. The daughter of Zhang the butcher looks exactly like the son of the blacksmith in the neighboring village, could they be twins then?
Mom, don't believe their words, or present evidence, merely saying I'm your daughter doesn't make me so; my real parents are right here. Stop talking nonsense."
Jiang Xiaoxiao vehemently denied.
