Chapter 108
Host, You’re Too Much!! (1)
Where had Xiaoman actually come from? Jiang Xiumei didn’t know.
Jiang Yue got a good job after graduating from university and moved to the city. Jiang Xiumei did not want to burden her daughter, and she had also been accustomed to life in the village, so she didn’t follow her to the city. She did not know anything about what happened to Jiang Yue back then.
She only knew that her daughter, who had only been away from home for a few months, left with a flat stomach, and when she came back, she brought a little girl with her.
Jiang Yue said that the child was hers.
Bullshit!
Others might not know, but how could she fool her own mother?
But Jiang Yue wouldn’t say where the child came from and insisted that she gave birth to her.
It seemed that her daughter had a secret she was unwilling to tell.
Jiang Yue had never made Jiang Xiumei worry. This was the only time; even if she was beaten, Jiang Yue would not say anything.
Jiang Xiumei had no choice but to acknowledge this granddaughter that came out of nowhere.
Jiang Yue said that she would raise Xiaoman well and not go back to the city anymore. She wanted to be a good teacher in the village, just like Teacher Tang.
So many people tried their best to come down from the mountain, but Jiang Yue was the other way around. She already managed to leave after great effort but ended up returning again.
At that time, Teacher Tang came to the house to talk to her. Jiang Xiumei did not know what they were talking about; all she knew was that Teacher Tang left with a complicated expression, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Jiang Xiumei had also accepted her fate.
Her daughter was a Golden Phoenix, but unfortunately, fate did not let her soar to the sky. Well, it was fine if Jiang Yue returned home. The three of them could rely on each other. As long as the whole family was united, there were no challenges that could not be overcome.
Who would’ve thought that her fate was so terrible? The misfortune did not stop there.
It would be great if illness did not exist, but unfortunately, the Heavens play tricks on mortals.
After Jiang Yue departed, Jiang Xiumei once thought about giving Jiang Xiaoman away.
But she had also raised her for a long time by then—enough time to get attached even if one were just raising a dog. Jiang Xing also liked Xiaoman. Jiang Xing, who was usually never home, often came back to see his niece after Xiaoman appeared.
His hands were never empty whenever he came back. He would bring candies and small toys, all to coax her.
Regardless of the adult’s affairs, Xiaoman was a good girl.
Even though she was just a baby back then, she was white and soft, did not cry or make a fuss, and was very obedient. If you teased her, she would babble and laugh at you.
Jiang Xiumei couldn’t bear to drive her away, and Jiang Yue also cared about Xiaoman so much so she didn’t end up giving her away.
Their house was very lonely anyways. There were only her and Jiang Xing left. Raising Xiaoman was merely adding another pair of chopsticks. This was how she ended up continuing to be raised by them.
She called Jiang Xiumei, Grandma, and Jiang Xing, Uncle.
She was usually good and well-behaved and got spanked when she was occasionally naughty. Overall, she was still very cute. Xiaoman was Jiang Xiumei’s intimate little padded jacket.
Jiang Xiumei raised her not only like a granddaughter but also like her own daughter too. She poured all her love for Jiang Yue into Jiang Xiaoman.
Tonight, Hong Xingguo called her a wild seed, a wild child who came from who knows where. Aside from being furious, she was also scared.
Xiaoman was someone else’s child. What if… what if her parents came here? What should she do if they wanted to take her away?
She had worked so hard to raise such a good child. How could somebody else just come and take her away? No way!
