Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Getting Involved
Thinking about this, Jiang Xue felt a bit upset. In her previous life, she had listened to Cheng Li in everything, had been so good to her, but in the end, she died at her hands and met with a bad end.
In this life, she finally had a falling out with her, and from then on went separate ways, not wanting to be entangled with her again.
"Xue’er, if you want to find your biological parents, we won’t stop you," Father Jiang spoke again, seeing Jiang Xue remain silent.
"Yes, Xue’er, you are grown up now, just decide your own matters," Mrs. Jiang chimed in.
"By the way, Cheng Li had an identical bracelet before, you can start with her, maybe she knows something."
"Dad, Mom, I know. I have my own judgment about this matter, don’t worry. No matter whose daughter I am, I will always be your daughter. In the future, I will take care of you in your old age."
"Good, with your words, your mom and I feel it’s all worth it," Father Jiang smiled, pleased, thinking that raising Jiang Xue was not in vain.
Jiang Xue smiled and then said, "Dad, Mom, rest assured, raising this daughter was definitely not in vain. You will always be my parents, don’t worry."
"Let’s go, let’s eat, the food is getting cold," Jiang Xue stood up to support Father Jiang to the table.
After eating, Jiang Xue chatted with them for a while before going back to her home.
Back at her own home, Jiang Xue sat in the living room, lost in thought. Although she didn’t have a great desire for her biological parents, she felt it was necessary to know who they were.
Moreover, she wanted to know what exactly her relationship with Cheng Li was, praying they were not sisters, otherwise she would be utterly depressed.
However, this matter wasn’t urgent, and she had no resources to investigate now, better to wait for Mu Qiancheng to come back and discuss it with him.
Having decided, Jiang Xue then got up to do other things.
As for Cheng Li, after leaving Jiang Xue’s house, she idled outside until past seven before returning to where Jiang Mingzhu lived. Fortunately, Jiang Mingzhu wasn’t home, so she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
She knew, with Jiang Mingzhu’s temper, if she knew Cheng Li hadn’t accomplished the task, she would definitely scold her.
Ah Yong saw Cheng Li return and paid no attention to her. After all, the young Miss had said this woman would stay here for a few days.
Of course, merely a few days. As for food and drink, if she caught meal times, fine, if not, it wasn’t his concern.
Cheng Li also knew that the people here looked down on her. She was seething inside but there was nothing she could do. After all, why was it that she had no power or influence and came from the countryside.
If she were like Jiang Mingzhu, a daughter of a rich family, these people would certainly be looking down on others.
Thinking of this, Cheng Li couldn’t help but resent Mrs. Cheng, hate her for not marrying a rich man, instead marrying a rural pauper, causing her to be merely a village girl.
As Cheng Li angrily pondered, she walked into the room Jiang Mingzhu had arranged for her. It was called a room, but in fact, it was a storage room, with assorted items inside, a mat laid on the floor, a quilt on the mat, this was her bed.
Enduring her hunger, Cheng Li lay down on the mat.
Jiang Mingzhu came back in the middle of the night. Perhaps she had drunk some alcohol and was in a bad mood, so as soon as she returned, she came to cause trouble for Cheng Li.
With one kick, she knocked open Cheng Li’s door, startling her awake from sleep, and she sat up abruptly.
