Chapter 676 Brother, I’ll Take You Home 10_1
"How did this girl called Zhao Di end up joining the gang? Was she also taken away?" He Zhilan asked.
"Not at all, Zhao Di was sold by her biological parents. Since she was bought with money, her boss got so angry when she ran away because he hadn’t earned back the money he invested in her. I heard from older members in the gang that she was purchased from a very poor place in an outer province. However, she wasn’t the only child the boss bought there. Some children were ’rented,’ with a yearly rent paid to their families. Once they were taken away, they never returned to their families. Boys were sold if anyone would buy them, and unwanted girls were kept to beg for money. When they got older, the ugly ones got sold off to marry in remote, impoverished mountains, while the good-looking ones were brought to night clubs to make more money."
After listening to He Da’s story, He Zhilan was left shocked. She didn’t expect to get so much information about Gu En’s childhood from He Da.
Sometimes, the world is really too small, after going around in circles, she discovered that the He Family had been searching tirelessly for their lost child, He Da, who turned out to be exactly where she lost her way as a child - the same place where Gu En first appeared in the Gu Household.
A girl, sold by her biological parents, roamed the streets for years begging, and then marched into the Gu Family grandly, becoming the apple of their eyes.
Thirteen years ago, it was she, Gu Zhilan, who felt pity for these beggars and generously gave them her change and snacks.
Little did she expect, one day, someone from this group of child beggars would replace her position in the Gu family, adopt her surname, and take away her parents and home - all her things.
