After her rebirth, she became an unattainable woman.

Chapter 9 Returning to Parents' House

"Sis! You go back first. I'll look into this for you. I'll call you as soon as I have the results."

A patient knocked on the door, and Song Qiao took the opportunity to stand up: "Then I'll go back first and wait for your call."

Just as Song Qiao turned to leave, Gao Xiang suddenly said, "You'd better get a paternity test!"

"I know!"

Song Qiao turned to look at Gao Xiang: "Keep this a secret for me, don't tell your cousin."

When Wang Yanyan found out, her husband Wang Baolin also found out.

Once Wang Baolin finds out, it won't be long before Jiang Ming does too.

"rest assured!"

Gao Xiang knew his cousin well; she wasn't a bad person, just a loudmouth with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He didn't tell her about this for her own good, otherwise, if something happened, it would affect the two of them.

After Song Qiao left China, she took a trip to her parents' home. At that time, her mother, Tao Yumei, was not in good health. She had not taken good care of herself during her postpartum period after giving birth to Song Qiao, and she suffered from back and leg pain.

In her previous life, Jiang Ming used the excuse that she was still not used to living at her maternal grandmother's house to prevent her from taking care of her mother. Now that she thinks about it, she was too heartless. Her mother only had her as her child, and she never properly fulfilled her filial duties until her death.

Riding her electric scooter, Song Qiao went to Jinhua Shopping Mall to buy her mother an electromagnetic lumbar support and some nutritional supplements, then took them to the neighborhood where her parents lived.

The electric scooter stopped, and Song Qiao looked up at the house. In her previous life, the day after her parents passed away, Jiang Ming sold this house. By the time she found out, it was too late.

She found her parents' portraits in the trash can and was so heartbroken she wanted to kowtow until her head bled. But when she found Jiang Ming, she said that the buyer was homeless and pitiful, and that selling the house was for her own good, so that she wouldn't be saddened by seeing it again.

Carrying the back brace and other items she bought for Tao Meiling, she entered the elevator.

At that time, there weren't many apartment buildings with elevators in the city, but her parents bought one.

At the door of room 1301 on the thirteenth floor, Song Qiao put down what she was holding, took a deep breath, and pressed the doorbell.

Immediately, that long-lost voice rang out in the room: "Who is it?"

"Mom, it's me!"

When Song Qiao answered this question, it was as if she had returned from another world. Having been reborn, she wanted to take good care of her parents, as they were their only family in this world.

The door creaked open, and her mother's kind, smiling face appeared before her.

"Qiaoqiao, what brings you here? Come in quickly!"

Her mother took out a pair of clean slippers from the shoe cabinet, which had been dried in the sun, and placed them under her feet: "Quickly put these on!"

When she visited her parents' home for the first time after her rebirth, a warm feeling welled up in Song Qiao's eyes, which she wiped away while changing her shoes.

"Where's Ran Ran?"

Tao Meiling looked at Song Qiao and pretended not to hear her. Instead, she handed the things in her hand to her mother: "The weather is getting colder. This is a back support I bought for you, and this nutritional powder. Remember to drink it!"

Song Qiaoji remembers that eight years ago, her father had just started his business, and the company was not doing well. At that time, her parents did not have much money, and her mother had to be extremely frugal with every penny.

To save money, she goes to a distant market to buy groceries every day, carrying them along the way and resting several times before getting home.

"Spending money again? Didn't I tell you to be frugal? The kids will be starting school soon."

Although Jiang Xiaoran didn't like her grandmother, Tao Meiling treated her with utmost kindness.

Song Qiao now understands that the love she gave Jiang Xiaoran stemmed from her love for her daughter.

"Mom, it's okay. Jiang Ming's salary is quite good, enough to live on. Besides, Ranran is still young."

What she meant to say in the following sentence was that Jiang Xiaoran is not my daughter and whether she spends money or not is none of my business, but it's not the right time to tell my parents yet, so she changed it to "Ranran is still young".

"Why don't you stay for dinner tonight? Your dad's comrade-in-arms gave us some hairy crabs. I was originally planning to have your dad bring them to you after get off work."

Song Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I'll eat here, so you don't need to bring it to me."

In her previous life, the food her parents couldn't bear to eat themselves was sent to her house, and it mostly ended up in Jiang Ming and Jiang Xiaoran's stomachs. Jiang Ming would even pack up the leftovers in takeout containers, saying he'd take them to work, but now that she thinks about it, they all ended up in Zhao Xiaohui's stomach.

When Tao Meiling heard that Song Qiao wanted to eat here, her back pain disappeared, and she hurriedly went to the kitchen to find an apron.

"You sit and rest for a while, Mom will go do it."

Now that Song Qiao thinks about it, her mother is a great cook. Every time she brings Jiang Ming and Jiang Xiaoran over, it's always her who's busy in the kitchen, dragging her injured back.

"Mom, your back hurts, I'll do it."

As Tao Meiling put on her apron, she said, "These crabs are still alive. If they're not cooked properly, they won't taste good. Mom should cook them."

For Tao Meiling, the fact that her daughter was able to stay and eat was the greatest blessing she could receive.

Song Qiao moved a chair to the kitchen doorway: "If you don't teach me, I will never be able to cook. Over the years, I have learned to cook many dishes, but I don't know how to cook crabs. You have to teach me step by step."

Upon hearing this, Tao Meiling smiled and said, "Alright, Mom will teach you."

In fact, Tao Meiling felt very sad. Her daughter, who had been pampered since childhood, was forced to do everything after getting married.

"Take a brush and scrub the crab clean."

Tao Meiling saw the crabs that were tied up and directed Song Qiao.

"it is good!"

Song Qiao found a brush and began to carefully scrub the crabs.

"Qiaoqiao, guess who I ran into at the entrance of the neighborhood that day?"

Song Qiao looked away from the crab and towards Tao Meiling: "Who did you see?"

“Your high school classmate, Lu Mingxuan, said he just came back from abroad. The young man is quite warm-hearted. When he saw me coming back from grocery shopping, he walked me downstairs and invited me to come up and sit down. He said he had something to do and then left.”

Song Qiao looked at Tao Meiling with a puzzled expression: "What's he doing here?"

His home is in Greentown Villas, which is in the east and west of the city, respectively. Could he be here to...?

He said he was passing by on his way to run errands.

Mentioning Lu Mingxuan stirred a strange flutter in Song Qiao's heart. She clearly remembered the time in high school when he followed her and slipped love letters into her schoolbag. After she rejected him, he became indifferent to everything and stopped being enthusiastic about studying.

Only now did she realize that his change was related to the rejection of his love letter.

"Song Qiao, I have something to give you!"

On the way home from school, Lu Mingxuan caught up with her, looked around to make sure no one was watching, and gave her the few folded pieces of paper he was holding.

"what is this?"

Song Qiao frowned as she unfolded the letter and discovered it was a love letter. She immediately became furious: "Lu Mingxuan, you're so boring, why did you send this? I don't like you!"

At that time, she liked Jiang Ming, and all her classmates knew it. Lu Mingxuan couldn't possibly not know, and Song Qiao believed that he did it on purpose.

"Song Qiao, why don't you like me? I'll treat you better than that Jiang Ming!"

When Lu Mingxuan said this, his expression was very awkward. Now that he thought about it, he realized that he had probably worked hard for a long time to get that love letter to her.

"How can you compare to Jiang Ming? What does he have that you can't surpass? He's excellent in every way. He's good at studying, serious and meticulous in his work, and kind to his classmates. What about you? The only thing you can do better than him is that your family is rich."
