Wan Wenwen: I don't have any recollection of them. I can't be like the ones who grew up around me. By then, I'll definitely be the one sacrificing and giving up. I don't want to come back. I want to be reborn.

Wen Wan couldn't do anything to her. When she woke up the next day, the system told her: "Host, Wan Wenwen's soul is gone."

"Is she really gone?"

"gone."

Wen Wan had no choice but to continue and attend the family recognition banquet and celebration banquet held by the Wen family in Sunshine Village.

Li Hongmei never expected that she was only asked by Wen Wan to help, but she actually helped her mother-in-law find her niece.

Wen Tiemei held Wen Wan's hand and couldn't stop looking at her. "When you came to our village to work in the countryside, I felt a sense of familiarity with you the first time I saw you. I didn't expect that you and I would be destined to be together, and you're actually my niece. How about this, Hongmei is your friend and your cousin's wife, so we'll be even closer, hehe..."

In the past, when Wen Wan was admitted to university, the Wen family members and relatives in the village all said congratulations. Now they held a family reunion banquet, and all the relatives and neighbors came. They all gave red envelopes, and the house was very lively.

After a lively day, relatives, friends and neighbors all left.

Wen Qiang and his wife and Wen Tieniu and his wife are cleaning up the red envelopes and gift money.

"I spent thirty-two dollars and thirty-eight cents on meat, wine, and candy. There's even a big basin of leftovers. I received two hundred and twenty-three dollars and fifty cents in gifts."

Mother Wen said, "Wanwan has been admitted to university, and she'll need money in the future. Qiangzi and his wife will take 23.5 yuan, and I'll save the rest."

Wen Wan became a member of the Wen family, and the ones who showed the most joy were Wen Qiang's three children, who called her "Auntie" sweetly and affectionately.

"Dad, Mom," she called out, coming in with a thermos bottle in her arms. "Don't leave me money for school. The government subsidizes college these days."

She put down the thermos and pulled her niece Miaomiao aside. "Don't touch the bottle. It's just filled with boiling water. Be careful not to burn yourself." She continued, "Dad, Mom, I didn't have a good life in the Wan family before. You've heard Sister Hongmei tell you about my situation. I don't want to owe the Wan family anything, so I want to discuss paying them back the money they used to support me."

Wen Qiang asked, "Sister, you don't remember anything about the past? You were four years old when you went missing."

Mother Wen immediately got angry, "If you and the second brother hadn't been so busy digging out the bird's nest, would your sister have gotten lost?"

The original owner really has no memory before the age of five. He has been living in the Wan family since he can remember. At that time, Wan's mother was still alive, but she always looked sick. Wan Wu would cook when he got home from school every day, but the original owner was the one who did the laundry.

Later, Wanwu taught the original owner how to cook. He would arrange what to eat for lunch before going to school every day and let the original owner light the fire and cook.

Due to her chronic illness, Wan's mother rarely cared for the original owner, which is why the original owner and Wan Wu had such a deep bond. Wan Wu practically raised her. When Wan's mother was feeling well, she would go out to bask in the sun. When she wasn't feeling well, she would lie in bed, eat in bed, and only get out of bed to use the bathroom when it was convenient. Her only hobby was listening to the radio, which she turned on at dawn except for the night when it was turned off for nine days.

There was a time when Wan's father disliked her mother for wasting too much electricity by playing the radio every day. Wan's mother even attempted suicide twice because of this. Later, Wan's father dared not say anything about it anymore.

Less than three months after Wan's mother passed away, Wan's father remarried with his current stepmother. His stepmother brought Wu Shuangshuang with her. As soon as she entered the family, Wan's father changed his stepsister's surname to "Wan Shuangshuang".

Wen Wan felt that Wan's father, stepmother, and Wan Shuangshuang were very close, and it was very likely that Wan's father had been having an affair with his stepmother when Wan's mother was still alive. On the day Wan's mother died, she was at school. When she returned home from school, many of her neighbors were talking about Wan's mother's death, saying that after more than ten years, she was finally gone.

In the original owner's memory, Wan's mother treated her neither well nor badly. She treated her badly in that, compared to Wan Wu, she would give him some pointers and advice, and she treated him well in that she never beat or scolded him. One thing was clear: in her eyes, the original owner was invisible, as if she didn't exist at all.

"Before this, I thought I was a girl from the Wan family. Now that I think about it, there are some differences. For example, my adoptive mother never made a piece of clothing for me since I was a child. But every year, no matter how seriously ill she was, she would make a new set of clothes for my brother, sewing them herself. The clothes I wear are from my aunt's cousin..."

Wen Wan stopped talking. She suddenly realized that her cousin from her aunt's family looked very similar to her adoptive mother. When she was in middle school, she encountered Wan Wu giving her pocket money several times. Her aunt only had her cousin as a daughter.

My uncle was the office director of the Friendship Store and was later promoted to general manager. My aunt always dressed very fashionably and beautifully, and her figure was like that of a woman who had not given birth. In other words, she had never given birth. I don’t know whether it was my aunt or my uncle who didn’t give birth.

Wen Wan narrowed her eyes, and the mystery of the original owner's life experience became clearer and clearer. The original owner was not the daughter of the Wan family, but the child of the Wen family.

"My cousin from my aunt's family had a lot of clothes. My uncle was the director of the Friendship Store. She had never lacked food or clothes since she was a child. But my adoptive mother still insisted on making clothes for her brother every year, so she made a set for her.

My cousin doesn't like me and is jealous that I am prettier than her. She doesn't give me her better clothes and always gives them to my cousin from my uncle's family. Then my cousin gives me the ones she doesn't want anymore.

My cousin from my aunt's family is my adoptive mother's biological daughter. Although I don't know why my adoptive mother gave her to my aunt, there must be something I don't know.

I have been around five years old since I can remember. I started by washing clothes and cooking at home. After my brother went to school, he would teach me to read and write. When I was seven years old, I went to school. I could write my own name and do addition and subtraction within 20. I knew all the pinyin, so I was directly admitted to the second grade.

I had always been a good student. In third grade, I took the top spot in the school. My adoptive mother didn't want me to go to school, so I went to find Grandma Zhou from the neighborhood and got a job pasting matchboxes. I earned three yuan in one summer vacation. The fifty cents tuition for one semester was paid by myself..."

When Wen's mother heard this, she covered her mouth and cried. She didn't expect that her daughter would get lost and suffer so much. The little girl of a few years old had to earn money for her tuition by herself.

Wen Wan continued to recall the past, "After that, I earned my own tuition and went to high school until I graduated. Although there were no classes in high school, I had textbooks and could read and study by myself according to the textbooks."

"Mom and Dad, I don't want to owe the Wan family any debt. I did the math and started giving them 4 yuan a month for living expenses, starting from when I was five. That's 48 yuan a year, 12 years, that's 600 yuan for them. If I don't give this money to my adoptive father, I'll send it to my eldest brother. He was the one who took care of me the most when I was a kid. He's their only son, so this is a way of repaying them for taking care of me for 12 years."

Mother Wen wiped her tears and asked, "What do your adoptive father and mother do?"

"My adoptive father is a driver for the Municipal Materials Bureau's transport team."
