At Rancho Fundo: Zefa Leonel tells Tia Salete the truth about Margaridinha

The secret that most torments Zefa Leonel (Andrea Beltrão) finally comes to light: Tia Salete (Mariana Lima) discovers that Margaridinha (Heloísa Honein) is her daughter. The plot begins this Saturday, the 28th, in ‘No Rancho Fundo’, when Tia Salete overhears a conversation between Seu Tico Leonel (Alexandre Nero) and Zefa Leonel, in which the matriarch complains that Margaridinha has gone to work at her father’s cabaret, Laércio Oliveira/Vespertino (Thardelly Lima).

On Monday 30, Tia Salete questions the couple about who the mother of Margaridinha is, the woman who, like her, also fell into the seduction and abandonment of Laércio Oliveira. Very distressed, Tia Salete asks her if she is Margaridinha’s mother and, drawing her own conclusions, faints. Already in her room, accompanied by her family, Floro Borromeu (Leandro Daniel), Father Zezo (Nanego Lira) and Dr. Alba (Maria Silva Radomille), Tia Salete wakes up and, finding Margaridinha at her side, calls her “my daughter”.
