Chapter 435: The fire reached the Du Family on April 21st (2)
Song Hui was very agitated, "When we took Xiaoyu away, he left nothing but money and a phone number. Making a sudden phone call now, who knows if he even recognizes us! I was thinking... first get in touch with him, cozy up a bit, then talk about Xiaoyu, but the phone was busy... And now look, he’s on TV! Our whole plan is ruined!"
Tian Xiaoe patted her son’s swaddling clothes, "Head of the family, I think, Mr. Song is too cruel! That’s a D-grade product! He has been trafficking for so many years and made so much money, yet he doesn’t even leave a bit for his own biological daughter."
"Leave a bit, my ass! What the hell are you thinking? All you think about is money! Do you even realize that if this case gets connected, even we could end up in prison!"
Tian Xiaoe was startled, "Ah? How is this related to us?"
"Even though we’re in a small town, we know how strictly the country clamps down on D-grade products! He’s been locked up now, and the news just mentions he’s been in the D-grade trade for years. ’For years’, exactly how many years is that? If it goes back seven years, who’s to say we won’t be implicated too!"
Tian Xiaoe still didn’t understand.
"The five hundred thousand!" Song Hui reminded her, "Even now, five hundred thousand is no small amount! Let alone seven years ago? With such a large sum in the bank account, if the police start investigating, how will we explain ourselves?"
"I—" Tian Xiaoe thought for a moment, then gritted her teeth, "What’s there to explain? Mr. Song gave us the child himself, it’s not like we stole or snatched her! The police can’t just arrest someone based on transfer evidence."
Song Hui sneered, "You think it’s that easy? Once it’s related to D-grade, every single income of his will be thoroughly investigated, and it’s only a matter of time before the police come knocking on our door!"
Tian Xiaoe lowered her lashes, silent.
Looking down at Song Xiaoye, who was sound asleep, for some reason, she suddenly remembered what Xiaoyu looked like when they first brought her home.
"Head of the family... what if..." Tian Xiaoe patted her son’s quilt, "We send Xiaoyu back?"
"Are you crazy?"
Tian Xiaoe slowly shook her head, "Mr. Song initially said his wife had an affair, that the child wasn’t his, and asked us to take Xiaoyu, the ’wild seed’. Now thinking about it... how much truth was in his words? Maybe he did something shady himself?"
"Back then, we had just lost our son, and were in deep anguish. He helped us with the medical bills, gave us five hundred thousand... When I brought Xiaoyu home, I actually felt some happiness..."
"After coming home, your mother, your sister, my parents, and my brother... all of them came asking us for money... The five hundred thousand dwindled as we spent it... Huahua got sick again, and as I watched Huahua suffer day by day, and Xiaoyu living healthily, I couldn’t help feeling like it was her who had brought the illness to Huahua, and I started treating her worse and worse..."
"But Xiaoyu, over the years, has been truly filial to us, and everyone in the village has nothing but good things to say about her. If you think about it carefully, not a single cent of Mr. Song’s five hundred thousand was spent on Xiaoyu... Does her birth mother know about this? If she knows, how would she treat us?"
Song Hui had never considered this point, and for a moment, he was completely dumbfounded by Tian Xiaoe’s thoughts.
"If her birth mother is heartless enough to abandon this child, we’ll take Xiaoyu back. But if her birth mother has been kept in the dark, knowing that her biological daughter has been with us for seven years, we can’t predict what might happen..."
