543 I Am Your Mother

Sister Jiang and her husband brought Zhang Qin to the train station. They did not expect it to be so heavily guarded. Everyone entering and exiting the station were interrogated carefully before they were allowed to move on.

People like them who came from other regions and did not know anyone in the county city were usually prime targets for interrogation. Moreover, Zhang Qin was already too grown up for them to be able to fool people about her identity.

They did not drive here. If they did not take the train, there was no other way out. They could not leave their dim-witted son at home for too long.

Sister Jiang and her husband, Guo Tian, were relatives. Her own family thought that Guo Tian was a useless man. His family ran a huge business, but he did not know how to manage it. It started to decline after he took over. In order not to lose their family assets, they could only choose a girl from within their extended family.

At that time, Sister Jiang's family had taken a fancy to the Guo family's wealth and proceeded to separate Sister Jiang from the person she loved. Later on, Sister Jiang accepted the reality that was her life and decided to have Guo Tian's children. However, because of the fact that they were related by blood, the children she gave birth to were either deformed or stillborn. It was not easy for her to finally have a normal-looking child, but he ended up to be a dimwit in the end.

That was why they had no choice but to spend money to buy a girl to be their son's child bride.

Sister Jiang brought Zhang Qin to a hidden corner and said sternly, "When we get to the train station later, if anyone asks you, just say that I'm your mother. Do you understand!"

"You're not my mother! My mother's name is Li Gui and my sister's name is Qiao Mei. You're not my mother!" Zhang Qin struggled and replied.

Sister Jiang went forward to cover Zhang Qin's mouth and reached out to pinch Zhang Qin's body near the ribcage a few times with all her might.

"You little brat, you'd better shut up. Let me tell you, if I don't live well, you won't get to live well either! Your parents don't want you anymore! I'm your mother now! Do you understand!" Sister Jiang shouted.

Zhang Qin widened her eyes. Even when Sister Jiang pinched her, she did not make a sound. It was not true that she was unwanted!

It was Zhang Qian who took her and Zhang Chao away. Her mother and elder sister loved her and were looking for her now. She was not an unwanted child!

"My mother's name is Li Gui! My sister's name is Qiao Mei! You're not my mother! Let go of me!" Zhang Qin said as she struggled.

Sister Jiang was very exasperated. She went up and slapped Zhang Qin, pointed at her and said, "You'd better listen to me, or I'll throw you into the river!"

Sister Jiang's beating and scolding attracted the attention of passers-by. Guo Tian smiled and said to everyone, "The child is throwing a tantrum and insisting on buying toys. Her mother is educating her! Please disperse, disperse please!"

When the passers-by heard this, they walked away and stopped watching. Zhang Qin did not retort and stood there silently, glaring at Sister Jiang.

"At least you know what's good for you. Hurry up and follow me. If we miss the train, you'll have to sleep on the streets!" Sister Jiang pulled Zhang Qin and walked out of the alley.

Guo Tian patiently held Zhang Qin's hand and walked with her. Other than taking care of children, he did not know how to do anything else.

"Hey! Where are you from! Is this your child?" an inspector asked.

Sister Jiang walked forward openly and said, "This is my daughter. We're from Blue City."

Blue City? Blue City was at least 2,000 kilometers away from here. Who would come here for no rhyme or reason!

"Why are you here?" the inspector asked.

"We're in business. Our family business is expanding and we're thinking of coming to this area," Sister Jiang said with a smile.

It was understandable to travel here on business, but which family would bring a child along when out on a business trip, especially when it was so cold in the north. If a child came here and could not get acclimatized, the child might even catch a cold.

"Then why do you bring your child along? Does your child know how to do business?" the inspector was alert and asked as he looked at them.

"It's… it's rare for us to go on a long trip. Since the child has never been anywhere since young, we want to bring her out and broaden her horizons," Guo Tian said nervously.

Zhang Qin suddenly broke free from Guo Tian's grip and ran towards the inspector, shouting, "They're not my parents! Save me!"

Qiao Mei had once instructed her to go to the police station and look for the police officers if she ever got lost.

In the past, she had never been bought out, so she did not know what kind of clothes police officers wore. However, Qiao Mei had told her that police officers were the people who had stars and badges on their shoulders.
