Chapter 24: Wishful Thinking

Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Wishful Thinking

"Oh my! Peach trees and grape vines, that’s easy, let’s go! Uncle will take you up the mountain, it’s not for nothing you call me uncle. I’ll show you my treasures."

Li Zaiguan loved having people visit his woods.

They were his lifeline.

He was deeply invested in this mountain forest.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Fan Jianguo followed Li Zaiguan up the mountain.

Honestly, there were many trees planted on the mountain, but they were clearly divided.

They first saw a large expanse of peach trees.

Peaches had long since been abundant; most were already picked! The remaining ones were scattered and not yet ripe.

But the fragrance of peaches filled the garden, without a doubt.

Finally, Li Zaiguan picked out two five-year-old peach tree saplings and two-year-old grape vine saplings for her. As for the beloved yellow pear sapling, Li Zaiguan hesitated but let go of one sapling that was crooked and droopy, which Jiang Xiaoxiao insisted on taking.

It was quite a harvest.

Because it was getting late, Li Zaiguan didn’t keep them.

Fan Jianguo once again rode Jiang Xiaoxiao back home.

Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t let her uncle take her home! She chased him away at the entrance of the alley.

Leading to Fan Jianguo cursing, saying it’s like eating from a bowl and then cursing the cook.

It earned a smile from Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Having no other choice, he left.

Jiang Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to turn around and threw one peach tree sapling, a grape vine sapling, and the yellow pear sapling into her space.

She didn’t have time now, she would plant them later at night when she was alone.

Fan Xiuying and Jiang Laoshi saw their daughter with sweat on her forehead, which only left them helpless.

This girl is still this wild.

What will happen when she goes to the countryside?

The farm certainly won’t let her be so free.

"You silly girl, what are you doing?"

Their daughter made them sigh.

"Mom, Dad! I brought some peach tree and grape vine saplings back, I’m going to plant them."

Jiang Xiaoxiao proudly held up the saplings in her hand.

"First, put down the saplings, wash your face and hands. There’s a guest in the house, come inside and meet them."

Fan Xiuying looked at her daughter with concern, seeing the sweat on her forehead.

Jiang Xiaoxiao tiptoed and glanced inside the house.

Receiving a slap on the forehead from Jiang Laoshi.

"Hurry up."

The voice lowered slightly.

Jiang Xiaoxiao held her forehead with grievance, she hadn’t gotten a clear look.

After washing her face and hands, she went inside.

Then Jiang Xiaoxiao discovered it was Fang Zhixin and his wife Xu Min who were visiting.

In her past life, they were her uncle and aunt.

These two were honestly good people.

But Fang Zhiyuan was bad at handling people, and Ye Hua is quite petty, causing them to not get along.

In her previous life, she and these two had no interaction.

They didn’t even speak.

What was going on now?

Could it be because she refused to acknowledge Fang Zhiyuan, Ye Hua got anxious and brought her uncle to persuade her?

"So you’re Xiaoxiao, right? I’m your uncle." fгeewebnovёl.com

Fang Zhixin was a good guy, but he was serious and strict.

He seldom smiled, giving people a stern impression.

"Wait, Dad, when did uncle change his appearance? I don’t recognize him. Isn’t this too exaggerated, Uncle can’t really change his looks, right?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao cracked jokes, not wanting to immediately acknowledge the relatives.

Jiang Laoshi looked awkward and pulled Jiang Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, Mr. Fang brought people to clarify the situation, you might really have been swapped."

Feeling unwilling in his heart, but seeing the evidence they brought.

Plus, Fang Zhixin being such a capable man wouldn’t lie, they weren’t here to deceive children.

They both were also quite confused.

Fang Xiaohui stood aside, mouth pressed tight, eyes full of tears.

"Xiaoxiao! I’m sorry! I didn’t know you were actually Mom and Dad’s child, you’ve suffered all these years, Mom and Dad miss you, come back. They can’t bear to see you suffer here. Come with me."

Fang Xiaohui tried to persuade her emotionally and logically, Jiang Xiaoxiao had to go back, or Fang Peizhong would have the risk of being sent to the countryside, and Ye Hua couldn’t possibly let Fang Peizhong go to the countryside.

By then, it might be her own risk.

Compared to Fang Peizhong, the Song family behind her wasn’t enough to change things.

Fan Xiuying wiped away a tear, what they said earlier was reasonable! Her child going back would be with her biological parents, would be enjoying life, wouldn’t a capable family be better than their poor days?

For the sake of her child, she should let her child go back.

"Xiaoxiao, Mom is telling you, go with your biological parents, Mom and Dad are not your biological parents."

Fan Xiuying said with gritted teeth, after loving her child for so many years, suddenly she wasn’t her own.

Who could understand the feeling of heartache?

Jiang Xiaoxiao held tight to Fan Xiuying’s hand, whenever parents were like this! As long as they were good to her! They would endure any pain or hardship.

In her previous life, she left like this.

Left heartlessly!

Then her parents not only lost her! Also lost their biological daughter.

Why should the Fang family get all the benefits!

Jiang Xiaoxiao became angry.

She was striving to change everything! Not to become a wedding dress for the Fang family.

If they wanted her back, she would see if the Fang family still wanted her back.

"Alright, since you’re my biological uncle! Then I’ll go with you, but let Xiaohui stay here with Mom and Dad, it should lessen their sadness! Xiaohui, you have to take care of Mom and Dad."

Fang Xiaohui’s expression changed, she wasn’t planning to stay here.

This rundown courtyard couldn’t compare to the buildings.

Trying hard to maintain her softness, "Mom and Dad, my adoptive parents hope I can stay with the Fang family! After all, I grew up with them, they can’t bear to let me go. I’m about to start working, it’s inconvenient to come back here. Don’t worry, when I have time, I’ll come back to visit you."

Jiang Laoshi and Fan Xiuying also wanted their biological daughter to stay, despite having no emotional connection, she was biologically theirs.

Not having raised her even for a day, they still wanted to develop feelings together.

But unexpectedly, Fang Xiaohui refused to come back.

They were disappointed! But also grateful, grateful the Fang family raised their daughter.

They were willing to help them raise the child; her residency was still with the Fang family.

It was a great favor.

"What? Xiaohui won’t come back to stay with Mom and Dad? Why won’t she come back? You are Mom and Dad’s biological daughter, they can’t bear to part with you! Doesn’t Dad and Mom also miss you? Moreover, your residency should be moved back here, you should live here! You’re making them feel so upset.

Mom and Dad, then I won’t leave either, I also can’t leave you two. Since Xiaohui can stay with the Fang family! Let Xiaohui be the Fang family’s child! I will remain as your child, this way none of us need to change, I like being with Mom and Dad, I don’t like that Fang family! It’s a strange place, I won’t go.

Mom and Dad, I’m staying!"

The Fang family wanting to simply gain a daughter for free was a dream.

She wouldn’t let Fang Xiaohui’s plan succeed.
