Chapter 1169 - 371: Identity Revealed_3
Mo Yan shook her head helplessly and said, "She doesn’t remember anymore; she only knows she has a mother and an elder sister, but she can’t recall their names. It’s too difficult to find her family right now; all we can do is continue to raise her and wait for the day she remembers."
Originally, the Wu’s wanted to adopt the child, but the child was shy and unwilling to leave Lixiu’s side. After consulting her father, Lixiu pleaded with Mo Yan and decided to adopt the child.
Lixiu gave Mo Yan silver, which was intended as the child-rearing expense. Mo Yan agreed to her request to adopt the child, symbolically accepting a bit of silver, and then treated the child as one of their own.
Liu Tinglan appeared thoughtful and glanced at the child several times before suddenly asking, "Don’t you think she resembles Little Stone from Aunt Wu’s family? The year of the disaster, wasn’t her family forced to sell a child? Could it be possible that she’s the child who was sold?"
Mo Yan was taken aback and stared intently at the child.
When the child first arrived at the Mo Family, she was so skinny that even her facial features had changed, and naturally, she bore no resemblance to the plump Shitou. As she gradually gained weight, the changes were subtle with each passing day, so no one thought in that direction.
Now that Liu Tinglan had pointed it out, Mo Yan observed the child more closely and found that her features were indeed very similar to Little Stone’s: round nose, slender eyes, slightly short chin, and a round face that was identical.
Her heart began to race, but Mo Yan’s memory of Si Nier was very vague, and she couldn’t confirm if the child before her was truly her. Her eyes were fixed on the child, suspected to be Si Nier, as she tried to find more resemblances but noticed the ages didn’t match.
Si Nier was the same age as Zhenzhen and had already been six years old when sold. Four years had passed, making her now ten years old, but the child in front of her looked quite small and childish, appearing to be only seven or eight years old at most—there was a two-year difference.
