Zhao Chuchu was befuddled.
Were Xia Chenglan and the Zhang clan alright in their heads?
Did they come to such an occasion to make her feel disgusted by this performance? How could they claim to be her mother?
It seemed that Xia Chenglan had forgotten the pain after her wounds had healed. She had decided to be a demon again.
The guests looked at each other after hearing what the two women from the Zhang clan said. They then turned their heads to look at Zhao Chuchu, waiting for her response.
Zhao Chuchu looked at Xia Chenglan and the people of the Zhang clan impassively. Her expression didn’t change at all.
Xia Chenglan started to feel nervous from Zhao Chuchu’s indifferent stare. But as she thought about the money and benefits that Zhao Chuchu could bring to her, she forced herself to continue speaking, “I know you hate me, but can you give me a chance to make up to you? I know I did something wrong, and I’ve been living in guilt all these years. I couldn’t stop myself from crying every time I thought about you.”
Zhang Qun added, “Yeah, Chuchu. Your mom often woke up in the middle of the night crying alone because she was thinking about you. She cares about you. But life forced her to make the wrong decision. As your mother, she loves you more than anyone else. Could you give her a chance?”
Old Mrs. Yuan’s face was completely dark at this point. She wanted to say something to rebuke these clowns, but Zhao Chuchu stopped her.
Zhao Chuchu smiled and said, “You said that you are my real mother? But my mother died when I was very young. This is in the government records. Oh, perhaps you can go to Yuanjiang County and ask around. The county office has recently finished investigating my parents’ murder case.
“Not only did the culprit admit his crimes, but the government has also closed the case and determined that my parents were killed after being poisoned. I would like to ask you. Did you climb out of your grave? Did you not die? Did you
Just pretend to die and run away( It that’s the case, whose body IS In my mother’s coffin? Did you kill someone to replace yourself?”
Xia Chenglan’s expression changed a little.
She didn’t know what happened in Yuanjiang County, so she couldn’t say a single word to respond to Zhao Chuchu’s questioning.
“Why are you not answering?” Zhao Chuchu stared at Xia Chenglan.
Xie Chenglan forced herself to calm down and said, “Chuchu, I’m not sure about those things, but I am sure that I gave birth to you…”
“Well, then. Can you tell me how long the delivery was when you gave birth to me? Was it a rainy day or a sunny day? Was it during the day or at night?”
Xie Chenglan didn’t know about those things.
Even if she knew Zhao Chuchu’s birthday, she couldn’t remember what that day was like.
“Can’t answer? You keep saying that you are my mother, yet you don’t even know these details? As a mother, how can you forget about those things? Although my mother’s name is Xia Chenglan, she’s definitely not you!”
“Chuchu, are you not afraid of receiving divine retribution for saying such things?”
“Then, tell the god of thunder to strike the thunder down on me! Xia Chenglan, as the daughter of the Xia clan, not only did you run away with a man, you came to someone else’s clan to snatch their daughter. Is that how the great Xia clan of the Guangqing Province taught their daughters? Shame on them! They don’t deserve to be called a ‘big clan’!”
“Zhao Chuchu, you unfilial wretch! How dare you talk to your mom like that? Even if you don’t want to acknowledge her, you can’t just cut off a blood bond like that. This is wrong. You will receive divine retribution!” Madam Zhangli didn’t expect Zhao Chuchu to be such a capable debater. The latter had managed to choke Xie Chenglan with her questions in almost no time.
She felt that if she didn’t say something, Zhao Chuchu wouldn’t belong to the Zhang clan anymore.
Madam Zhangli continued, “Regardless of what you said, you can’t twist the truth. Everyone here is looking. Zhao Chuchu doesn’t even want to acknowledge the existence of her own mother! How can a daughter do something like this? Regardless of what happened, she was carried by Zhao Chuchu for 10 months! If your daughter did this to you, will you not feel betraved?”
Zhao Chuchu looked at Madam Zhangli and said, “From which garbage bin did you come?”
“I didn’t come from a…” Madam Zhangli was enraged. She yelled, “Zhao Chuchu you bitc…”
Before she could finish a sentence, a big steamed bun flew in a straight line and entered right into Madam Zhangli’s mouth, making her unable to speak for a while.
Madam Zhangli was livid. She managed to take out the bun after putting in a lot of effort. Then, she charged forward in an attempt to beat Zhao Chuchu up.
Zhao Chuchu said coldly, “Today was supposed to be a good day. I didn’t want to do anything violent. But you cheats came to my door trying to scam me. If I don’t do something now, any Tom Dick or Harry would think that they can claim to be my mother.”
Right after she said it, the guests saw a blur in front of their eyes. Madam Zhangli then flew straight out of the door horizontally.
She fell onto the ground with a painful shriek.
Xie Chenglan’s face turned pale. “Zhao Chcuhu! How dare you use violence?”
“You came to my village and made a big fuss last time. I let you off the hook. I thought that you would learn from your mistake, yet today, you came and tried to claim to be my mother again. I know why you’re so insistent on claiming that I’m your daughter. It’s because I am a doctor now and you can make me your cash cow, am I right? My mother was an orphan. She had no parents.
She’s not someone that a shameless filth like you can pretend to be.”
Zhao Chuchu slowly stepped toward Xie Chenglan, while Xia Chenglan staggered backward in fear.
“Don’t come near me. If you dare to use violence against me, you’ll receive divine retribution…
“Is that all you know? Great, I would love to see what divine retribution looks like.”
