Chapter 511 Telling Chen Xi's Life Story
Su Tai looked at Chen Xi for a while, her eyes full of tenderness, "Xi'er has grown up so fast, I remember when she first came to the village, she was so small!"
Shen Xi knew from a young age that she was not Shen Qiezi's biological daughter. Because her family loved her wholeheartedly, she did not feel inferior at all. She smiled and said generously: "Dad and grandma gave me all the good things, so I grew up so well!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. "You! Your father only has you as his precious child. Who else should he give the good things to if not you?"
Shen Xi laughed.
Su Tai looked at their warm expressions and said thoughtfully, "Auntie, I know that Dalang and his brother treat Xier as their own daughter, otherwise we would not have been able to let you raise Xier with peace of mind. In fact, there is one thing we have never told you. I know about Xier's life experience."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang's family of three all changed their expressions and looked at Su Tai nervously.
"Xiao Tai, what do you mean by that? Could it be that Xier's biological parents are coming to take her back?"
Mrs. Zhang clenched her fists in anger.
Shen Xi shrank into Mrs. Zhang's arms in fear, "Grandma, I won't leave! This is my home. I only have one father, Shen Dalang. I'm not going anywhere!"
Since she was young, she had aspired to find a good husband to marry into the family and take care of her father and grandmother in the future. She had never thought about the situation of her biological parents. Su Tai's words were unacceptable to her.
Shen Dalang's shocked and hurt expression gradually eased after hearing Shen Xi's statement. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and said, "Humph! Xi'er was so young back then, and the other party said no, so he didn't want her. Now you want to ask for her back? Dream on!"
Seeing the three of them getting excited, Su Tai quickly comforted them, "No, no, Auntie, don't worry. I told you this just to let you know the situation of Xier's biological parents, not because someone came to look for you."
The three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Mother Zhang even covered her chest and lay back, "Oh my! I was almost scared to death! It's ok if they don't come to ask for Xier. Even if they come to ask for her, we won't give her! Xier will always be my granddaughter!"
Mrs. Zhang was determined.
Su Tai looked amused and teased, "Auntie, do you still want to know? If you don't want to know, I won't tell you, lest I turn around and become a villain."
Mother Zhang and Shen Quezi looked at each other, and finally looked at Shen Xi together, "Xi'er, what do you say?"
Shen Xi shook her head decisively, “I don’t want to know!”
She has no feelings towards her biological parents, and even feels some resentment towards them, and speaks in a particularly harsh tone.
Mrs. Zhang felt very uncomfortable seeing her like this. After hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth and looked at Su Tai, "Xiao Tai, why don't you just tell me! Xi'er doesn't want to know, but I want to find out clearly what happened that made her biological parents do such a cruel thing!"
Upon seeing this, Su Tai told everyone about the dispute between him, Shen Yi, and Xiong Kai and Mo Chunxiang.
Mother Zhang nodded suddenly, "I've heard about this. It was the woman who broke off the engagement first, repaying kindness with hatred. Later, Shen Yi married you. People also said that Shen Yi's father is still alive and didn't let that kind of woman enter the house!"
Su Tai sighed helplessly, "Xier is the daughter of Xiong Kai and Mo Chunxiang. She has an older brother. Xiong Kai came to my house and caused trouble and was arrested by the government. Mo Chunxiang gave birth to Xier but didn't want her. In fact, she wanted to leave Xier at my doorstep, but was afraid of being exposed, so she had to settle for the next best thing and leave the child outside your doorstep.
When we found out about this, we were furious. The township head also interfered and put pressure on the village head, which made it very difficult for the village head to deal with it. At this time, the Dalang brothers said they wanted to adopt a child. Shen Yi and I thought that since your family doesn’t have children, Xier would be able to live a good life in your family and wouldn’t have to stay in the Xiong family and be looked down upon. So we concealed the matter.”
Chen Xi burst into tears after hearing this. Mrs. Zhang was so distressed that she hugged her tightly and cursed angrily, "How can that woman Mo Chunxiang be so hard-hearted! Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Just because her husband was arrested and the baby is a daughter, she just says she doesn't want it?"
Su Tai looked helpless.
"In fact, she was not only cruel to Xier, she also didn't have much love for her only son. Xier's elder brother was originally taken back to Mo Chunxiang's parents' home, but was rejected after being raised for a while. So Mo Chunxiang took her son back to her husband's home and gave him to her elderly mother-in-law to take care of. She then returned to her parents' home and enjoyed the protection of her parents with peace of mind.
I heard that they had a very difficult life back then, and they hated Mo Chunxiang ever since then.
Later, Xiong Kai returned home alive and secretly sent his old mother and son away. Mo Chunxiang's good days were over.
During that period, Mo Chunxiang was beaten very badly by Xiong Kai. I thought Xiong Kai would come to find the child, and I was worried for a while. But there was no movement until he died.
I originally wanted to keep this a secret, but my mother came over today and said that Mo Chunxiang had returned to Ximen Village and moved into her husband's shabby house. I was worried that she would regret it and come to my house, so I had to explain the situation to you in advance."
Su Tai felt very uncomfortable after saying so much. She looked at Chen Xi, who had her head buried in Mrs. Zhang's arms, and said earnestly, "Xi'er, no matter what your mood is, I want to tell you that your father and grandmother really love you, and your biological mother is not a good person. If she really comes to find you, you must stay away from her. Don't listen to her and do anything to make your father and grandmother sad."
Shen Xi wiped her tears, sniffed, stood up from the stool, and knelt down to kowtow to Su Tai in a serious manner.
Su Tai was shocked and subconsciously turned sideways, "What are you doing, kid?"
Shen Xi choked up and said, “Xi’er thanks Auntie for taking care of me over the years!”
Although she couldn't judge whether what Su Tai said was true, almost everything she ate, drank, used and wore since she was a child was given by Su Tai. Given that her family was poor, her things were beyond the reach of other children in the village.
Whenever she was sick, Su Tai would send her medicine and food, and would come to see her in person when she had time. In her heart, Su Tai was the embodiment of her mother.
This kneeling also shows her determination and attitude.
Su Tai looked at them and felt very sad. "Hurry up and get up! The grudges between adults have nothing to do with children. If I wasn't afraid that you would be fooled, I wouldn't tell you all this and make you so sad!"
Shen Dalang reacted and knelt down to Su Tai. "I am a useless person. I originally planned to live a miserable life like this. Fortunately, my sister-in-law gave Xier to us. My mother and I will be grateful to you forever, wuwuwu."
It took Su Tai a lot of persuasion for the family of three to gradually calm down.
After they returned, Su Tai felt as if a huge stone pressing on his chest had disappeared, and he felt a lot lighter.
Early the next morning.
Matchmaker Chen came again with people, and this time they brought in obviously much more things than last time.
Both sides asked Najib to complete it on this day.
After completing the whole process, it was already evening.
