In her previous life, Su Nian lived in vain. Her parents favored sons over daughters, only treasuring her elder brother!
She gave her all for her family, only to end up with nothing!
Up...
After opening the jar, Su Nian reached in, took out a handful of things, and put them on the table. "I was young at that time, and everything seemed good to me!" Su Nian explained embarrassedly.
Chu Beichen looked over carefully and saw that the pile of things included a two-cent coin, four small gadgets made of sheep bones, a popsicle stick, and a stamp with a postmark on it. It was not new, but used!
Just as Chu Beichen was looking at the mess, Su Nian reached into the jar again and took out a small handkerchief bag.
She put the handkerchief bag on the small table, sat on the bench, and then opened the handkerchief bag. There was a small silver-white thing inside, like a button!
Su Nian picked up the button almost reverently and looked at it against the light. "If it was really my family who sent me out, then this button should belong to my family!"
Chu Beichen took the button, held it in front of his eyes and looked at it for a long time, "This is a cufflink, made of silver!" He took out a handkerchief and rubbed the smooth part of the button a few times. Suddenly, a bright white light came out, which was the color of silver.
"Su Jianchun stole this from the house, and I got beaten for it," Su Nian said calmly. "Then I found this thing and didn't want to give it back to them. After all, I'd already been beaten!"
Chu Beichen looked at Su Nian who was nonchalant, and just wanted to hug her quickly and take her away from this suffocating place.
"Let's go," Su Nian stood up, "We've taken everything we need!"
Chu Beichen immediately let out a long sigh, pulled Su Nian up and left.
After leaving the Su family, the two men were in a bad mood. They hurriedly visited two more families before rushing back to the compound.
As soon as I entered the yard, I heard the sounds of drinking and playing finger-guessing games. The pair of Hu Hongde and Fan Pengjun were still drinking!
Chu Beichen made a gesture towards Su Nian, signaling her not to speak. If those two saw her, they would ask him to go drink again.
Su Nian and Chu Beichen each went back to their rooms. Before entering, Su Nian suddenly stuffed something into Chu Beichen's hand and said, "Help me take a look at this cufflink. What's so special about it? I've been looking at it for years and can't see anything!"
Chu Beichen took the cufflinks and nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll watch it tonight, you have a good rest!"
Chu Beichen watched Su Nian enter the house before he returned to his room. Without even bothering to wash up, he picked up the cufflinks and studied them carefully under the lamp.
The cufflinks were made in the shape of a teardrop. The outward side was smooth with a stripe in the middle. There was nothing special about them. Chu Beichen looked carefully for the logo on the cufflinks but found nothing, which meant that the cufflinks might have been custom-made.
He put the cufflinks on the table and rubbed his cheeks. When Su Nian was three years old, it was still the 1970s. At that time, most people were still very poor, and ordinary people could not possibly have decorations like cufflinks.
The cufflinks lay tightly under the lamp, and the part polished by Chu Beichen was shining like a drop of water!
By the way, some people will make cufflinks into special shapes to highlight their family or special meaning!
Thinking of this, Chu Beichen simply stood up and looked at the cufflinks from a distance. The more he looked, the more he felt that the cufflinks looked like a white letter!
Thinking of what Grandma Daya said, Chu Beichen was confused again. If the cufflinks belonged to the Bai family, then what about Miss Han who had visited Su Nian?
Chu Beichen was puzzled and could only guess that Su Nian came from a wealthy family. Because in that era, most people still wore shabby clothes, and there were very few people who could afford decorations like cufflinks, not to mention that these cufflinks were specially customized!
