Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 257: Chapter 257: It’s My Child!

Sun Lijuan didn’t feel at all that she should thank Sun Chan for her current situation. Isn’t that what should happen? She even felt smug: You don’t like me, right? I won’t let you know that I benefited because of you! But you just have no way to stop it, it must be driving you mad!

It turned out Father Yang and Zhao Jieyun searched through the village and got some information from an elderly lady. The old comrade from back then didn’t actually take Zhao Jieyun’s daughter away; instead, he took a relative’s child. Life was tough for that family, struggling for food, and their only child fell sick with no hope of survival. Knowing they could go to Beijing was such a joy! If they could build a life and career in Beijing, have a job, they could also lend support, right? So, they swapped the children and took that one away.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jieyun nearly fainted, grasping the other person’s wrist with a trembling voice: "What about that child? Left in the village?"

"Seems so? Haven’t heard any news of anyone leaving. But back then, it was chaotic with movements happening everywhere. Complete turmoil. Some kids were given away at birth. Who knows if they snuck out? Though, later I heard that a newborn by the well was taken away by someone."

Zhao Jieyun’s mind buzzed, her heart felt stabbed by knives. She grabbed her husband’s wrist: "The daughter we constantly yearned for was right here! How foolish were we not to think of coming back for a look!"

Father Yang patted his wife’s shoulder and asked the person, "Which family took the child?"

"A widow called Zhao Xiuxia. Her family originally planned for her to be a bride for their simple-minded son. But that son later died. So she became an adopted daughter. Last year, the family wanted to marry her off for a dowry, but the girl didn’t agree and ran away."

"Is it... is it Sun Chan?" Zhao Jieyun trembled as she spoke.

The woman chuckled, "You know? Yes, it’s Sun Chan, a good child, they say she’s now gone to the city to find work and has found a soldier boyfriend."

Zhao Jieyun nearly fainted again, caught by her nearby husband, and Father Yang was deeply upset too, as his wife was always so strong, yet this time has truly been struck.
