Zhang Chunxue's smile faded. "I've already told you, he and I have a great chemistry."
"I like this child very much, so I plan to adopt him. He will be my son, Zhang Chunxue, in the future."
"I also hope that everyone will stop saying these things in front of him."
Everyone suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
One woman noticed the blind spot: "Huh? Is this child's last name Song?"
Zhang Chun answered calmly: "I already said that he was the child that Secretary Song saved, so he has the same surname as Secretary Song..."
"What's the problem?"
Everyone looked at each other and laughed together.
"No problem, no problem..."
But the doubts in their hearts grew even deeper.
Zhang Chunxue's adopted son has the same surname as Song Xingzhi... Who would believe that they have no relationship?
Some people also tried to tease Song Yanshen: "Hey, kid, what's your name?"
Song Yanshen just hid behind Zhong Xiaoxiao.
The man couldn't help but curl his lips: "Oh, this kid is quite shy! He ignores me! How rude!"
Zhong Xiaoxiao pursed her lips: "My brother can't speak, it's not that he ignores you."
Zhong Xiaoxiao's words once again caused an uproar.
"Huh? Haruyuki, the child you adopted is actually mute!"
Zhong Xiaoxiao immediately glared at him.
Zhang Chunxue also glanced at the man: "You are not mute, but you are not very good at speaking."
The man suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "I, I was just too surprised for a moment, wasn't I?"
Zhang Chunxue directly took Song Yanshen's hand and said, "Let's go home!"
"Go home", these two words made Song Yanshen's eyes warm.
He nodded heavily.
Several people entered the house through the back gate, and Zhang Chunxue pulled Song Yanshen to a small house.
"Xiao Shen, this is the room I specially prepared for you. It may be a little small..."
"But this is just a temporary stay. We may have to move somewhere else in the future."
Song Xingzhi added quietly, "No need for the future. We may have to move out in a few days..."
Zhong Xiaoxiao was also very excited: "Xiao Shen, we are a family from now on!"
Song Yanshen nodded heavily.
Zhang Chunxue looked at Song Xingzhi again and said, "I've been selling braised pork in town these past few days. You probably haven't tasted the braised pork I make yet, right? I'll let you try it at noon today."
Zhong Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to speak up: "Teacher Song, my mom's stewed meats and braised dishes are super delicious! I guarantee you'll want more!"
Song Xingzhi smiled softly: "I've eaten everything Sister Chunxue made and I still want to eat more."
Zhang Chunxue's face suddenly turned red.
Zhong Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shudder: "It's a bit corny!"
She simply took Song Yanshen for a stroll around the neighborhood and kept introducing him to these things at home.
Their family was having a great time, and the whole village was bustling with activity.
"Do you think there's something wrong with Zhang Chunxue's brain? Why would he suddenly adopt a little mute who has no relation to him?"
"I think she's just too rich to waste!"
An old lady said mysteriously, "Didn't you hear? The child's last name is Song!"
The others were stunned.
Someone spoke up quickly, "Are you trying to say that the child was born to Zhang Chunxue and Director Song?"
"Are you crazy? The child is already seven or eight years old! Guo Sheng was still alive at that time!"
The others also shook their heads.
"Zhang Chunxue may be a bitch, but if you say she's cheating on me, I don't believe it!"
"Besides, Director Song can't possibly be that kind of person!"
The old lady from earlier looked at them speechlessly: "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever say that Zhang Chunxue had an affair with someone else?"
"What I want to say is that Zhang Chunxue is already in her forties. She definitely can't have a baby!"
"But if she's really in a relationship with Director Song, they can't really be childless, right? Adopting one would also be an explanation to Director Song's family!"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly understood.
"Oh! Grandma Niu, you are really smart!"
Another aunt couldn't help but say, "To be honest, neither Zhang Chunxue nor Director Song has ever admitted that they are really in a relationship!"
"If they have no place to go, these speculations are false."
Now everyone is really speechless, but many people still insist that there is a high possibility that they are together.
After all, Song Xingzhi didn't really like interacting with other people in the village before, and it was rare for him to visit other people's homes every now and then. Many people thought that they had an unusual relationship.
There were also those who liked to watch the fun and immediately went to find Zhong Chengfa and Zhong Chengyi.
However, no one knew where Zhong Chengyi had gone, while Zhong Chengfa was still working in the fields.
As soon as the man found him, he started yelling.
"Oh, Zhong Chengfa, you're still doing this? Your mother is going to die!"
Zhong Chengfa's face darkened when he heard this: "Your mother is dead! What nonsense are you talking about!"
The man chuckled and said, "I really didn't lie to you! Your mother has a new son!"
A question mark slowly appeared in Zhong Chengfa's head: "My mother is pregnant? Whose?"
The image of Song Xingzhi subconsciously appeared in his mind, but then he thought again that Song Xingzhi and his mother would not do such a thing.
The man slapped his thigh and said, "What do you mean pregnant? Don't you see how old your mother is?"
He spoke mysteriously, "Your mother brought back a little mute and said she wanted to adopt him!"
Now Zhong Chengfa was completely stunned.
He immediately became anxious and wanted to go back to ask his mother what was going on, but on the way he thought that his mother no longer liked him and if he went to question her, he would definitely be scolded by her.
After all, the family has been divided, and logically speaking, he has no right to control what his mother does.
But Zhong Chengfa also felt very uncomfortable.
His mother didn't even discuss such a big thing as adopting a child with them.
He subconsciously wanted to talk to the second and third brothers, but the second brother had never come back since his divorce from Zhou Mingli, and he didn't know where he had gone.
The third brother is also nowhere to be seen all day.
Zhong Chengfa knew what Zhong Chengyi had done, so he was thinking of borrowing some money from the third brother if he ran out of money in the future.
But right now, there really was no one to be found, and he had no way of finding someone to discuss things with.
But after thinking about it, Zhong Chengfa couldn't control his inner thoughts and hurried back home.
As soon as he got home, he saw Zhong Hongqing playing in the mud in the yard.
Zhong Chengfa ignored him and originally wanted to go around to the backyard to take a look, but for some reason, he felt a little scared, so he simply moved a stool to the newly built wall and looked back cautiously.
