Chapter 7: Confessing My Life shuhaige.net

Chen Yao and Su Fugui had not yet recovered from their shock.

Su Le closed the doors and windows.

Sitting across from the two of them, he took a deep breath and said, "I know you have some suspicions about me. I'm going to the countryside tomorrow. I plan to be honest with you."

Su Fugui and Chen Yao came to their senses and sat up straight.

Su Le said bluntly, "You should have sensed that I am not your daughter. I am from 2030. When I traveled through time, your daughter might have died, so I have no memory of her. I told you before that I had lost my memory. I'm sorry, I lied to you! I originally planned to play dumb and stay by your side, taking care of you on behalf of your daughter, but this happened. I think you may know that I have occupied her body. I also know that you love your daughter dearly. If you don't want to, it's okay to not recognize me. I can understand."

Su Fugui and Chen Yao pondered for a long time.

Su Fugui said, "Le Le, our family of three is occupying someone else's family of three!"

Su Le looked at him in shock, "What did you say?"

Chen Yao stepped forward, took her hand, and sat next to her. "Your father and I were in a car accident and were in a coma for half a month. During that time, we came here. We took over their identities and chose to stay here. So, we ended our lives in 2030."

Su Fugui continued, "I suspected our car had been tampered with, and something seemed to be responding to me. That's why I lost my mind for a moment."

Su Fugui believed in his intuition that there was something trying to get close to him.

Su Le said thoughtfully, "Dad, what do you think it is?"

Su Fugui shook his head, "I don't know."

Su Le said, "So you've been here for half a month, so five years?"

Chen Yao said, "Yes, that child may have realized a long time ago that we are not her parents, which is why she became like that. I guess the three of them are reuniting. Lele has also returned to us. What are you still thinking about? As long as our family is together, we are not afraid of anything."

Su Le nodded, "Yes, Dad, the ancestral bracelet came with me."

Su Fugui asked in surprise, "Did you see what's inside?"

Su Le nodded, "I saw it! There are so many things in it! Our family is so rich. No matter where we go, we don't have to worry about running out of money!"

Chen Yao laughed and said, "What a money-grubber! He's obsessed with money!"

Su Fugui mysteriously took two shovels and placed them at the door. "Dad, what are you doing with those?" Su Le asked in confusion.

Su Fugui looked as if he couldn't say anything, which whetted Su Le's appetite.

Su Le went to the kitchen to find Chen Yao angrily, "Mom, there are still eight dollars and sixty-three cents left." He handed the money under him to Chen Yao.

Chen Yao had no intention of refusing. After she finished cooking, she took out four bankbooks and an iron box from her room. "Le Le, take this. You're going to the countryside tomorrow. You'll need money everywhere, and you need bills. It's not safe to keep them at home."

Su Le naturally wouldn't take it, "Mom, you and Dad also need to have some money on you."

Chen Yao forced it into her hand. "Don't worry, I left some bills and a thousand yuan. I also put fifty reunion notes in the passbook, so it will be convenient for you to use them."

Su Fugui also nodded. "Take it. That's my salary. Your mother's salary is with us. The other three are the money your three brothers send back every month. That kid was squandering money before, so your mother and I saved it all. If you need money, we will write to you."

Su Le put the money directly into the space, leaving only 500 yuan on his body.

Su Fugui continued, "Inside the black box is an heirloom ring. I tried it before, and it's not really a space, but it matches the bracelet. I'd better keep it with you."

Su Le nodded.

The three of them ate happily, occasionally laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Chen Yao began to clean up the dishes.

Su Le went into the kitchen to check the household supplies. There wasn't much left. He grabbed five bags of Northeastern rice, a bucket of oil, various seasonings, paper towels, and more. Su Fugui followed, helping to remove the signs.

"Dad, next time I will send the package to you directly. If you need anything, just write to me." Su Le said to Su Fugui.

"Okay. Tomorrow you're going to the countryside. When you get there, you must build a good relationship with the team leader, so you can relax. Be considerate in your dealings with others. Don't be afraid to give gifts, but don't give them too expensive, as that will backfire. Not only will they not accept them, they'll even become suspicious of you. Don't be afraid of things either. Don't forget that you have a brother who's in the army. Our family has a lot of connections. Dad is trying to get you back to the city as soon as possible." Su Fugui said to Su Le earnestly. They had just reunited, and now they were going to the countryside. He really couldn't bear to let him go.

Su Le held back his tears and said with a smile, "Dad, I understand. Let's take a family photo tomorrow and I'll leave."

Su Fugui turned his back and picked up the shovel. "Lele, come here."

Su Fugui made sure that there was no one nearby before he started digging under the two trees.

Four boxes of small yellow croakers, one box of large yellow croakers, and four boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings.

Su Le stored them all in his memory. "Dad, you actually hid so many things?"

Su Fugui said, "These are all passed down from them. I think they are from a wealthy family. It's not safe to keep them here."

Su Le nodded.
