Chapter 29 Rescuing the Abducted Mother 20
Thanks to Chen's mother's commotion, what would have taken at least a month was reduced to just three days before Chen Qingyan's ID card was issued.
Over the past three days, Chen Qingyan has heard a lot of rumors in the family compound.
Chen's father, along with a group of relatives and even media reporters, would occasionally come to the family compound, initially trying to persuade them with a tone of pity, but eventually standing on a moral high ground to condemn the two.
Chen's mother is either arguing with someone or on her way to arguing every day.
The mother and daughter were overwhelmed by the disturbance. Chen Qingyan felt sorry for her mother and spent her days holed up in her small room, organizing her old things.
After receiving her ID card, she breathed a sigh of relief; she could finally leave.
One night, the mother and daughter bid a reluctant farewell to Grandma Li and left the familiar city with their meager belongings.
Daya and Xiaoxiao have moved into the city's welfare home. The environment is nice, and the director and caregivers all like them very much.
This was brought here by policewoman Xiaoya after she inquired around with her superiors.
In this struggle, the government ultimately compromised.
Daya was also very happy. She had a regular daily routine, waking up at seven o'clock, washing her face and brushing her teeth. The food was delicious, and she would have fruit and pastries as a snack in the afternoon.
This place is simply paradise, but unfortunately, she is eight years old and has to go to school.
Fortunately, the orphanage had a primary school, so she could stay with her younger sister after school.
That day, Xiaoxiao was playing on the slide with her friends, accompanied by their teacher.
Then the dean led several staff members with cameras to her.
"Little one, come here to Grandma."
On Xiaoxiao's first day at the orphanage, the director disliked the name Zhao Erya and changed it for her and her sister.
She named herself Zhao Xiaoxiao, with the nickname Xiaoxiao.
The little girl ran over, all sweaty and excited, and shouted:
"Grandma Dean..."
The dean sighed and turned to the female reporter beside her, saying:
"This is Xiaoxiao. Her older sister is still in class. You can interview her first."
"Hello! Little one, here's some for you."
Sun Jiatian is a reporter for the Urban Life Daily, eager to make a big splash and gain widespread recognition.
She took out the imported chocolate her boyfriend had bought for her and handed it to the dark-skinned little girl in front of her.
"Thank you, sister."
Xiao Xiao immediately took it, tore open the packaging without hesitation, and started eating.
Sun Jiatian wiped the back of her hand on her trouser leg with a look of disgust, and said with a smile:
"You're welcome, Xiaoxiao. Can I ask you a question?"
"go ahead!"
With her little cheeks puffed out, she replied casually while eating.
She already knew what she was going to do.
Do you miss your mother?
"In no mood!"
Without a single stutter, he replied directly.
Sun Jiatian was taken aback, caught off guard.
In her opinion, no child misses their mother.
Then, as if remembering something, he excitedly pressed on with the question:
"Why? Is it because Mommy treats you badly?"
"No, Xiaoxiao isn't familiar with her mother."
My mother is locked in the cellar every day, and every time it gets dark, I hear crying coming from inside. I'm so scared!
"Uh......"
Sun Jiatian was dumbfounded.
His colleague taking the photos seemed a little sorry for him and whispered:
"Sister Sun, how about we just call it a day?!"
It's so pitiful.
Sun Jiatian gritted her teeth and, unwilling to give up, continued to ask:
"So, Mom still treats you badly. She has never taken care of you or raised you for even a single day, right?"
"......"
Xiao Xiao glared at her, somewhat annoyed.
He thought to himself, "How can someone so big be so slow and not understand what I'm saying?"
Looking into the little girl's dark eyes, Sun Jiatian hesitated for a moment, but then hardened her heart and continued to ask:
Do you hate your mother?!
"I don't hate!"
"She abandoned you and your sister and left alone."
“No, she brought my sister and me to the city.”
"But she still embarrassed you when you left. She wasn't a good mother, was she?"
"..."
A brief silence.
Sun Jiatian continued to entice.
Don't you hate her?
"I don't hate!"
A little persistence.
"why?"
Sun Jiatian couldn't quite understand the girl's thought process. After saying so much, most children would have already cried and called for their mothers.
She happened to capture the moment when the child was crying and calling for his mother.
What great news material!
But the little brat in front of her just wouldn't cooperate and repeatedly went against her.
"Because I love my mom."
"But your mother doesn't love you!"
Sun Jiatian said cruelly.
The photographer next to them turned his head away, seemingly reluctant to look.
Xiao Xiao was still a little sad. She put herself in her mother's shoes and thought of her own mother. Her mother loved her very much, and her father loved her too. They always called her their little darling.
She can't stand hearing her mother say that she doesn't love her.
With tears in her eyes and a choked voice, she said, "But I still love her!"
The system auntie fell silent. She had tried her best to dissuade her, but Xiao Xiao still fell for the female reporter's trick.
Sure enough, Sun Jiatian finally smiled, looking at the crying little girl with satisfaction.
The next day, the City Life Daily published this news as its front-page headline.
The news headline was: Mom, please come back!
The accompanying picture shows Xiaoxiao with tears in her eyes, on the verge of crying.
Below the picture is a line of small print: "Although my mother doesn't love me, I still love her."
After seeing the news, countless citizens called to inquire about the little girl's situation and expressed their willingness to donate money and goods.
Especially for older people, seeing this would break their hearts.
I'm getting old, and I can't bear to see such human tragedies.
Sun Jiatian also became popular, and her influence within the station increased significantly.
I'm planning a series of reports to document in depth the plight of children born to trafficked women.
Xiao Xiao, however, resisted all of this. She and her sister welcomed the kind people who came to donate money and goods with open arms.
They politely declined interviews from reporters.
She even pulled her sister aside and whispered, "These people are all bad guys!"
Finally, a TV station's "Finding Relatives" program contacted the welfare home, expressing their desire to produce a program and hoping that Daya and Xiaoxiao would cooperate.
Grandma Dean couldn't refuse, so she had to call Xiaoxiao and Daya.
Daya habitually looked at her younger sister; she would go as long as her sister agreed.
If her sister refuses, she will refuse.
Xiao Xiao agreed; she wanted to appear on television to clear Chen Qingyan's name.
Soon, Xiao Xiao and Daya appeared on camera at the show's location.
The two sisters sat side by side. Daya nervously held her younger sister's hand, while Xiaoxiao curiously looked around.
They seemed quite interested in the cameras pointed at them.
The program host, smiling, held up the microphone and walked in front of the camera, saying:
"Hello everyone, I'm your host Zhen Jing. Welcome to this episode of our family reunion program."
