Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1100: Chapter 1086: Trapped in Lies

She didn’t want to have any more entanglements with the Xu family. If she were to inform Madam—no, if she were to tell her mom about her days at the Xu family and her suspicions, it would inevitably lead to complications.

Let it be, what if the Xu family clung to her like a pest?

According to Madam... according to her mom, she had fainted by the roadside back then... and when she woke up, the bundle in her arms was gone. No matter what, the fact remains that the Xu family raised her for over twenty years.

Think about it, those were hard times, especially in the countryside. Who would steal a baby girl to raise for no reason?

Even in today’s times, life for rural families isn’t easy. If someone saw a baby by the roadside, especially a "liability," they’d probably pretend not to see it.

She knew her mom would realize this too. Given her mom’s kindness, she might think... that she fainted on the ground, and passersby probably thought she starved to death on the roadside, but hearing the baby in her arms cry, they couldn’t help but take the child home out of compassion.

If her mom thought this way, how could she not show the Xu family gratitude?

Treat those two of the Xu family as benefactors?

Thinking about this, Xu Chunxia’s gaze turned gloomy. Why should she?

Though they did raise her, for over twenty years it was nothing but beatings and scoldings, even treating her like cattle. That paid off the kindness of raising her.

The door was gently pushed open. Hearing the sound, Xu Chunxia turned her head toward the door and saw the mother she had just reunited with during the day close the door casually and walk toward her.

"Can’t sleep?"

Fang Su sat down by the bedside and clasped Xu Chunxia’s hand: "Good child, don’t overthink. Regardless of everything, your adoptive parents did give you a bowl of rice over these years,

letting you grow until this age, while I... I was physically depleted after just giving birth to you and fainted by the roadside holding you. It was your adoptive parents with kind hearts who, thinking I had passed away, took you home to raise. When I woke up and didn’t see you in my arms, I panicked and fainted again...

It was Uncle Feng who saved me, but the impact was such that I forgot I even had a daughter and thus never searched for you... Do you resent Mom?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Chunxia shook her head vigorously.

"Good child, Mom knows you’re kind-hearted, but in the end, it’s Mom’s fault for losing you, causing you to suffer for so many years... But to prevent your dad from knowing you grew up in the mountains,

thinking you can’t make it on a big stage, and refusing to acknowledge you as his daughter, Mom had no choice but to lie to the people your dad sent to find me... Saying I was forced to entrust you to a farming couple back then,

saying I brought you back when you were almost eighteen, saying you currently work away from home and will soon be transferred back to North City... Chunxia, Mom had no choice but to tell this lie, otherwise, your dad probably wouldn’t recognize you... Do you know why?"

At this point, Fang Su was evidently manipulating Xu Chunxia, but Xu Chunxia didn’t realize and simply shook her head naively.

"Your dad is a young master from a wealthy family, and he looks down the most on rustic country folks, especially those who are totally illiterate. So... Mom had no choice but to lie, in this way when your dad meets you, he should have a slightly good impression of you."

Pausing for a moment, Fang Su patted Xu Chunxia’s hand and with a smile said, "By the way, in a few days once Mom finds a new housekeeper for the family, she’ll take you out for a good shopping trip, restyling you from head to toe, and then have Uncle Feng arrange an easier job for you. How does that sound?"
