After the divorce, I became a rich girl

When Li Ronghua and his party arrived at the hotel, they found the door of the room open. The two sides looked at each other silently from inside and outside the door, and no one spoke first.

At this time, Li Chengwei stepped forward and broke the silence first. "Hello, I am Li Chengwei, Jiawei's brother. Please come in."

Afterwards, Li Ronghua and Jing Qiu brought Li Yan and Li Xuanbao into the room, while Li Jiawei stood next to Cheng Ping.

Li Jiawei introduced them briefly, "These are my parents and my brother."

Li Ronghua and Li Jianguo shook hands tightly, but the atmosphere was still a little heavy and neither of them said much.

The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing. Cheng Ping's eyes fell on Li Xuanbao from time to time. Her facial features were quite similar to when she was young. She inherited the advantages of her and Li Jianguo, and was also quite similar to Li Chengwei.

Cheng Ping held Li Jiawei's hand tightly, with mixed emotions in her eyes, but this was her biological daughter whom she had raised for more than 30 years!

Jing Qiu also held Li Xuanbao's hand tightly. Both mothers were filled with torment and contradiction. However, Jing Qiu seemed to be more able to accept this fact than Cheng Ping, because she had already experienced pain and was slowly accepting the fact that her child was taken away by mistake.

"What will happen to the child in the future?" Li Jianguo was the first to break the silence.

Li Ronghua looked at the white-haired man in front of him and said slowly, "It was the hospital's fault for taking the wrong child, but the child itself was not at fault. We have raised Xuanbao for more than 30 years, and you have raised Weiwei for more than 30 years. Blood ties are important, but family ties are more precious. You are older than me, so I call you my elder brother. Since the incident has already happened, pain and regret cannot solve any problems. Now we just think of it as having one more daughter in the family. You have two daughters, and we have two daughters too."

Li Jianguo looked at Li Xuanbao, who was obviously brought up in pampered condition, and her whole body was full of exquisiteness. Then he looked at his own Li Jiawei, and he sighed and said, "Your family conditions seem to be much better than mine. I am a person with no ability, and Jiawei has suffered with us all these years. After all, our family owes you."

Li Jianguo finally couldn't hold back his tears. He and Cheng Ping had always thought that they had been very good to Li Jiawei, never lacking food and clothing for her, but now seeing Li Xuanbao, they realized that if she had not been taken away by mistake, Li Jiawei would have been raised in pampered conditions, and she would have lived a much happier life than she is now. But now, their biological daughter is enjoying everything that originally belonged to Li Jiawei.

Li Ronghua comforted him, "Brother, don't think like that. You and sister-in-law have raised the child very well. You have tried your best and given her the best."

Cheng Ping finally couldn't help but hugged Li Jiawei and cried loudly, his sadness was beyond words. Seeing Cheng Ping crying, Jing Qiu couldn't help but hug Li Xuanbao and sob softly.

Both mothers cried, and Li Jiawei and Li Xuanbao could no longer hold back their tears. For a moment, the room was filled with women's crying.

Li Jianguo sighed and said to Li Chengwei, "Chengwei, go buy two bottles of wine and some side dishes. Your uncle and I want to have a drink."

Although Li Jianguo would not utter a poem like "How to relieve worries, only Du Kang", he knows very well that wine can temporarily make people forget their sorrows and is the best bridge of communication between strange men.

Li Chengwei went out to buy wine and Li Yan followed him out. The depressing atmosphere in the room made him feel uncomfortable.

The two walked on the street, and Li Yan introduced himself, "My name is Li Yan."

"My name is Li Chengwei." Li Chengwei responded.

Li Yan smiled and joked, "You said our two families are quite predestined, we both have the last name Li."

Li Chengwei sighed, "We were one family five hundred years ago! This fate is unique."

Li Yan looked at Li Chengwei. His back was straight, and the speed and distance of each step seemed to be precisely measured. His resolute face made it difficult to see into his heart at the moment. He asked, "I heard from Weiwei that you are a soldier? What branch of the military?"

"Army." Li Chengwei answered briefly, then saw a cold dish store in front of him, walked in, and ordered two dishes that Li Jianguo usually liked to eat - cold pig ears and spiced peanuts. He turned around and asked Li Yan, "What does your father like to eat?"

Li Yan looked at the dishes in the glass cabinet. He had never bought food in this kind of store, but he still ordered two dishes. "I want a cold bean curd without chili, and a cold beef."

The two of them ordered their dishes, and the store said on the package that the total was "one hundred and thirty."

Li Chengwei took out his wallet and paid. Li Yan took the packed side dishes and said, "You don't need to buy wine. I have some in my car."

"Okay" Li Chengwei had no objection.

But when he walked to the side of Li Yan's car, Li Chengwei looked at the cool supercar in front of him. He had seen this kind of car on TV and on the road. He turned his head to look at Li Yan. Li Yan smiled and said, "My family is very rich." Then he took out the car keys and opened the door. He took out two bottles of wine from the passenger seat. "Sixty-year-old Moutai. My old man is not used to drinking foreign wine and only likes to drink white wine. I got these two bottles of Moutai at an auction yesterday. I was going to give them to the old man, but now I don't have to give them to him. Let's drink them today."

Li Chengwei took the two bottles of Moutai and walked towards the hotel without saying a word. He admitted that his self-esteem was hurt by Li Yan's words. Thinking of the rich life that Li Jiawei should have lived, Li Chengwei felt even more uncomfortable.

Li Yan followed Li Chengwei and said seriously, "The gap between our two families lies here. It is a good choice for Jiawei to return to the Li family. It is also good for your family. After all, Xuanbao is really excellent."

Li Chengwei smiled bitterly and began to recall, "I am nearly eight years older than Jiawei. When she was one year old, my parents went to the city to work, and we became left-behind children. It is not an exaggeration to say that I raised her. Jiawei has been very sensible since she was a child. I remember that my family raised two pigs at that time. She was so young, but she knew to hold a bucket as tall as herself to feed the pigs, and she would help me collect firewood to cook. The first time she cooked, she didn't know when the food was done, so I told her that the food was done when she saw smoke coming out of the pot lid. Since then, she has remembered this every time she cooks. When I was in school and didn't have time to go home to cook, she was only five years old, and she stood on a stool to cook for me, and then took the small lunch box to school. Do you know how far our house is from the school? Three kilometers. After she arrived at the school, she would sit obediently on the stone bench in the schoolyard and wait for me to finish school..."

Li Chengwei's speech was very confusing, but his voice was choked up and tears flowed down his cheeks. He continued, "Some things still make me sad when I think about them now. For example, my son is now ten years old, but he can't even do basic housework. The school is less than one kilometer away from our home, but we still need to pick him up every day."

"Also, Jiawei is very timid now. She is afraid of the dark at night and has to sleep with the lights on. Do you know why?" Li Chengwei looked at Li Yan and sighed deeply. He continued, "When Jiawei was young, I took care of her alone. I had to go to school and study at night, so I couldn't take care of her, so I had to lock her at home. But you know, even if our door is locked, there is still a big gap when the door is opened, so she can get out of the house by herself. I was afraid that she would run around, so I scared her that there was a ghost outside the house and she would be caught by the ghost if she went out. She believed me and became very timid from then on. She didn't dare to step out of the house at night."

Li Yan listened to Li Chengwei's narration, feeling mixed emotions and a blockage in his throat. He had never really understood such a life before, and only then did he realize that the lives of many people in this world were so difficult, much more difficult than he had imagined. He silently watched Li Chengwei walking and talking, not knowing what to say, just listening silently. At the same time, for the first time, he felt a little sympathy for Li Jiawei, his biological sister who suddenly appeared.
