Chapter 98 I Am Your Mother

When Mrs. Lu arrived in the countryside, she looked at the circumstance of the village and her face became uncomfortable. She has been pampered since she was a child and was born with a golden spoon in her mouth, a privileged young lady. Her family spoiled her since she was a child, and when she grew up and got married, she never suffered any hardship. She doesn't know what it is like to grow up in the countryside.

Seeing the situation in the village, she frowned and covered her nose with a handkerchief. She can smell the different kinds of stench around her and saw that the place is full of dirt.

The more she walked towards the village, the more she felt uncomfortable. They can't use the car since the road is filled with stones, so they could only walk.

She was supported by Chief Lu and the two walked in slowly. Along the way, they saw that the faces of the villagers were not healthy. Is this how is it? Thinking that her daughter grew up in this kind of environment, she wanted to die.

When she imagined her daughter living in such an environment and having a miserable life while growing up, she felt very distressed in her heart. It is heart-breaking that her biological daughter has to live miserably in this place.

She felt so uncomfortable that she was crying, her tears were rolling down her eyes. Looking everywhere, she can see this village is too desolate.

She was crying and Chief Lu also wanted to cry when he saw the condition in the village, his eyes were red. He always doted on her daughter and their family was not patriarchal at all, and they have always wanted to have a daughter. It was enough for them. So when they have a daughter, they never have another one after. Lu Huaien, who they believed was their biological daughter, was pampered in his hands. He was very afraid that she would be hurt, so she always protected her.

When he thought that the daughter he had raised for so many years belonged to others, and her biological daughter suffered in the village while growing up, he felt uncomfortable. The two finally walked to Ji Cheng's house and saw Xu Ruan in the yard washing the laundry outside.

When they came back home, she has to work. When they were in the city, Ji Cheng does the laundry but since this is her parent-in-law's house, she can't be lazy and let her husband do the laundry. She went outside to wash all the clothes of the entire family since there is well water outside for washing.

Ji Cheng went to the mountain to cut some firewood and he has to cut down half a month worth of firewood, so it will take him a while to finish and get back home.

Mrs. Lu and Chief Lu were at the door and saw her looking tired while washing a pile of clothes, Mrs. Lu was about to faint seeing her in this situation. The gate was not closed, so they were able to see inside.

Mrs. Lu was so angry that she walked over and pulled her up directly, she will not allow her daughter to suffer any longer. She gritted her teeth and asked her in concern, "Xu Ruan... why are you washing clothes? And why are you also washing your entire family's clothes? You are a girl and you should take care of your hands, you shouldn't be washing any clothes."

They have so many servants in the Lu Family, some maids were specifically assigned to do the laundry.

Xu Ruan had to wash the whole family's clothes by herself, so many clothes were piled up as high as a hill.

Xu Ruan was taken aback by the sudden appearance of Mrs. Lu, she is a little shocked by her words, what is she talking about? And more importantly, why are they here?

"No, Madam. There is nothing wrong with me doing laundry here, I always wash my family's clothes."

Mrs. Lu was very distressed, "No... no, you are not allowed to do this, how can you do this? Why are you doing laundry? You should be keeping your hands free from cold water, how can you wash others' clothes by yourself? Who are you married to? How can he let you do this?"

Xu Ruan is so confused by what Mrs. Lu is saying, why did Chief Lu and Mrs. Lu suddenly appear here?

"Madam... I understand your kindness, but this is my family's business, so it shouldn't concern you and the Chief. And also why did you two suddenly come here?"

Mrs. Lu was so distressed when her biological daughter treats her as a stranger, that she got impatient and grabbed her hands, then cried and said, "Xu Ruan, I need to tell you something. I am your biological mother and my husband is your biological father, we are your parents. You and Huaien were accidentally exchanged twenty years ago. So I am your biological mother and we are your family, I'm your mother!"

Xu Ruan was shocked when she heard this and looked at her in confusion, she doesn't know what is going on and just stared at her in a daze. She is very surprised by these revelations and does not understand what is going on.

"Madam... what are you talking about? You are my biological mother and there is some accidental baby switch many years ago?"

Mrs. Lu hurriedly told Xu Ruan about what happened that year, it took her about half an hour to explain everything. She even made it clear that what she said is the truth, including Chief Lu sending someone abroad for a paternity test. After finally receiving the results, it that showed that the two of them were biologically related.

Xu Ruan's mind is still whirling with the sudden influx of information that she heard, she felt that her head is going to explode from too much shock.

Did she turn out to be... the biological daughter of the Lu Family?

Did she get swapped with Lu Huaien?
