Chapter 1223: Go See Auntie

“I’ve been sick for so many years, but you and dad have always taken care of me. I’m already very glad that you don’t mind that I’m a burden. If I really can’t be cured, then I’ll accept it. I don’t hate anything. I have you, Dad, and Brother. I’m already luckier than most people.”

Sun Xiaoshan knew that many people had worse luck than her. Many children were abandoned because of their gender, disability, or illness. Those who were lucky would get to live at the Welfare Inst.i.tute. Those who were unlucky were abandoned by their families and died in an unknown corner of the world.

She had congenital heart disease. She was very glad that she could grow up under the protection and love of her parents.

To prevent her mother from complaining, Sun Xiaoshan changed the topic. She asked, “By the way, Mom, didn’t you say that the girl who looks like me that we met at the hotel last time might be our relative? I’ve heard others mention that I have an aunt who seems to be in prison, right?”

Sun Xiaoshan felt that it was a little strange. “Even though Auntie is in jail, she did not commit any unforgivable mistake. Grandma’s old neighbors said that Auntie was very pitiful. She married a man who would beat her up. He almost beat her to death several times and even almost had a miscarriage. Auntie did not want to kill that man. She accidentally injured that man’s vital organs when she resisted, and that man died. Auntie is too pitiful. Why don’t you and Grandma ever mention anything about her?”

After a pause, Sun Xiaoshan asked again, “Is that girl Auntie’s daughter? Actually, Auntie’s daughter did not die, right? Was she given away by Grandma to be raised by someone else? That girl and I look really alike. I’ve seen photos of you when you were young, Mom. She really does look like you, like the same person.”

Mrs. Sun’s expression gradually became gloomy as her daughter kept talking about that.

She had gone to the hospital in Jindo City that day to get the report, but it had exceeded her expectations.

The young woman had looked very similar to her. She had sent someone to that place the woman in prison had been married to, and the young woman was also from that county.

However, why did the report tell her that the young woman and the lunatic were not related?

What had gone wrong?

Could they not trust the paternity testing technology at all?

Was it only a bluff from the hospital to earn money from the people?

Mrs. Sun thought about how two persons, who looked so similar, were unrelated to each other?

“Mom, let’s go to prison to visit Auntie.” Sun Xiaoshan could not wait for her mother’s words and pulled her sleeve. She said, “Let’s go and tell Auntie that her child is still alive and has grown up and married. Auntie will be very happy if she finds out. She was with so many people at the hotel that day, including her in-laws. She seems to be getting along very well with them, so her relations.h.i.+p with her husband must be very good.”

Mrs. Sun smiled. “She’s not serving her sentence in Ping City. I heard that she was sent to a prison in the north. I’ll ask around. If your aunt knew that her daughter is still alive, she would definitely be delighted. Shanshan, when you’re better, I’ll bring you to meet her.”

The hospital’s paternity test report was no longer important. Mrs. Sun was confident that the young woman must be who she thought she was.
