In the past year since Tian Tian got married, a lot of things have happened in the team. These things didn't happen after Tian Tian got married, but before that, Tian Tian spent less time at home because of work. She stayed at home during the winter and summer vacations, or went to visit her high school classmates, and Shen Lingling and Tian Yun to play together. She didn't pay much attention to other things, so she didn't know a lot of things.
"I just found out a while ago that the child Zhang Lanru picked up, Zhang Yan, whose child do you think she is? She turned out to be Gao Lingling's child?"
Gao Lingling was the widow in their village. During the famine, she could no longer survive on her own, so she started hooking up with other men in the village.
After hearing this, Tian Tian was stunned for a moment and dug out a memory. She remembered that once she saw Gao Lingling with a big belly.
Now that I think about it carefully, the stage when Gao Lingling was pregnant seemed to be not much different from the stage when Zhang Yan appeared.
Before Tian Tian was pregnant, she didn't know how big her belly would be at any given month. But now that her belly is big, she has some idea of it. At that time, Shen Lingling's belly seemed to be a little bigger than hers, so it should have been around June or July.
"How did you know about this?" Tian Tian asked curiously, "Does everyone in our team know about this?"
If this were really known, it would be a troublesome matter for Zhang Yan. In any case, the reputation of Zhang Yan's biological mother Gao Lingling in the brigade was getting worse and worse. Although she only lived with Huang Kangri later, her behavior was immoral after all. There were also many women whose husbands were taken away by her, and they were not very friendly to Gao Lingling. If everyone in the brigade knew about this, Zhang Yan would probably face a lot of gossip.
Zhang Yan is still young, and it is very likely that these words will affect her personality.
Zhang Yan is a very good child. She knows that her family is in financial difficulty and is sensible. She helps with housework every day after school. Zhang Lanru and Aunt Huang are also determined to support Zhang Yan. No matter how difficult the family is, they will pay Zhang Yan's annual tuition.
Zhang Yan knew that her mother had given a lot to her grandmother, so her academic performance was also very good. She was basically always the first or second in her elementary school class.
"How can that be possible? What would happen if the whole team knew about this?" Lin Meiyu said.
"It was your grandma who noticed it. She saw Zhang Gao Lingling and Zhang Yan together before and said that their facial features looked more and more alike. That's why she started to suspect it. Then she remembered that Gao Lingling had been quiet for a year before. After that year, Zhang Yan was born, and then Gao Lingling stayed with Huang Kangri. That's why she made this guess."
Although they said it was just a guess, the expressions of Lin Meiyu and Old Lady Tian clearly showed that they were very certain.
Gao Lingling is extremely fair, her fair skin stands out in the entire village, and Zhang Yan is also very fair, so it is normal for Old Mrs. Tian to have such an idea.
Tian Tian listened without saying anything.
"Oh, what a sin. Tell me, what if Zhang Lanru and the others find out that Zhang Yan's child is Gao Lingling's? Over the years, although both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law don't care about Huang Kangri anymore, what is the gap between them?"
"Do they two know?" Tian Tian asked.
"How can we know? This is just our guess and we can't tell anyone else. Besides, what good will it do them if they know this?" Lin Meiyu sighed.
"We can all see how much your Aunt Huang and Sister Zhang have invested in Zhang Yan over the years. How can we just casually tell them about these things?"
"If they find out by themselves, there's nothing we can say. If we take the initiative to tell them, wouldn't that be just provoking them?" Lin Meiyu said.
At present, only she and Old Lady Tian know about this matter, and now Tian Tian has been added to the mix.
"And if they knew about this, wouldn't Zhang Yan's child be affected? I also like Zhang Yan's hardworking and diligent child. Besides, the relationship between the three of them is pretty good. There's no need to talk about these things and affect their relationship!"
Tian Tian nodded after hearing this. She also agreed with this idea.
"Zhang Yan's grades are pretty good now, right?"
"Very good. I heard that he ranked first in the grade in this year's final exam. He will be able to take the junior high school entrance exam next year. Judging from his grades, if he studies hard in junior high school, it won't be difficult for him to get first in the grade. If he gets first, he can go directly to a technical school. By then, not only will she not have to pay tuition, but she can also make money for the family."
"Zhang Yan, this child is really promising. Zhang Yan has kept the textbooks we borrowed from her very well, but some parts are still damaged because they have been flipped through so many times! She can memorize the entire book. No matter which page we know, as long as we tell her the page number, she knows all the contents of that page. She has really worked hard to learn!"
With Zhang Yan's perseverance, what can't she do well? So both Lin Meiyu and Old Lady Tian are optimistic about Zhang Yan.
Tian Tian felt relieved after hearing this. She thought that when Zhang Yan grows up and knows about this matter, she might be able to handle it better. But now Zhang Yan is still young, and there are some things she can't get over, so she is easily affected by these things.
Lin Meiyu told Tian Tian all the gossip about other families. Tian Tian was not at home, and Lin Meiyu was not the type to gossip with outsiders. With that kind of personality, it was even more impossible for her to gossip with Old Lady Tian, so she felt very uncomfortable keeping this matter in her heart.
It just so happened that Tian Tian had stayed at home for such a long time and was very bored. Now she listened to Lin Meiyu's gossip with great interest. It also provided Lin Meiyu with good emotional value. She would exclaim from time to time, which made Lin Meiyu more interested in gossiping.
They talked on the sofa until ten o'clock. At this time, Lin Meiyu looked at the clock and then she remembered why the old man had not come back yet.
"Where are your dad and his family going? How come it's already ten o'clock? They haven't come back to hang out yet? How can they hang out for so long?"
Tian Zhuo and Tian Lisong went out at eight o'clock in the morning and walked around for two hours. Now Lin Meiyu is a little worried.
"Maybe they went to too many places!" Tian Tian said.
She wasn't too worried. The key point was that they were two grown men, what could possibly happen?
