Chapter 124 Niuniu is not my biological child
Shen Sisi just lay on his chest, listening to her pounding heart and feeling his passion and love.
"Gu Chengfeng, don't lie to me again, okay?"
"Okay..." Gu Chengfeng murmured in a lazy but extremely sincere voice.
"I swear, I will never lie to you again. If you lie to me, I will..."
A few slender fingers pressed softly against his lips: "Stop it, we are not allowed to say unlucky words anymore."
Gu Chengfeng grinned innocently: "Okay..."
So, Shen Sisi forgave him?
Gu Chengfeng was laughing softly when he suddenly heard Shen Sisi's rather stern voice.
"Don't be too happy too soon. I'm not planning on forgiving you yet. Let's see how you behave!"
Shen Sisi pushed him away, sat up, and quickly tidied her messy hair with her fingers.
The smile on Gu Chengfeng's face quickly disappeared, replaced by a look of nervousness.
It seems that he needs to get better soon and behave well in front of his wife...
His secret has been told, now it's Shen Sisi's turn to tell her secret.
"Sisi, what about you? What is the secret between you and Niuniu?"
Ana Shen rolled her eyes, trying to tease him: “What’s wrong, do you care a lot?”
"This concerns you and Niuniu, how can I not care?"
"Do you care about me and Niuniu, or do you care about my past?"
Gu Chengfeng didn't need to think about it and blurted out: "I care about it!"
He knew the standard answer was that they cared about the people around them and didn't care about the past, but he had just promised Shen Sisi that he would never lie to her in the future.
He cared about her past to the point of madness.
Hearing his answer, Shen Sisi’s face instantly darkened.
Sure enough, he still cared about her past.
Gu Chengfeng keenly sensed her disappointment and did not give her the chance to continue imagining things. He began to explain.
"I regret not being able to be with you during those years. I don't know what happened to you or who you met, but I know you must have suffered a lot."
"I, Gu Chengfeng, have never been a gentleman, nor do I have a broad mind. I can't convince myself not to care about those who hurt you, and those things that hurt you..."
"I'm your husband now. If you're ever bullied, I'll find those who bullied you, no matter where I am, and beat them all up."
Shen Sisi was moved by his confident words, and at the same time she thought he was very cute because of his recklessness.
It turned out that what he really cared about was not whether she had a child with a strange man.
But I want to avenge her!
Many years have passed, but Gu Chengfeng's temper remains the same.
I can't bear to see her suffer any injustice.
Hearing this, she completely untied the knot in her heart: "Actually, things are not as simple as you think, and I am not as pitiful as you think."
Shen Sisi sat beside the bed and told him the story.
"Actually, Niuniu isn't my biological daughter. She was born to another educated youth who shared a room with me."
"What?" Gu Chengfeng was so surprised that he almost jumped up from the bed.
Niuniu wasn't her biological daughter, so why...
Seeing his dumbfounded look, Shen Sisi asked him to calm down.
"Here's what happened..."
At the beginning, Shen Sisi went to the countryside as an educated youth. Because her car broke down on the way, she reported in a little late. The big bunk bed in the educated youth home was already full, so she and another female educated youth were arranged to live in a dilapidated house on the other side.
"Her name is Xiao Chunyu. She's from Shanghai, from a family of scholars. Like me, both her parents are orphaned, and she's an only child. Our shared family backgrounds and circumstances make us very compatible. It feels like we met too late..."
Shen Sisi still clearly remembers the first time she met Xiao Chunyu.
The girl with two pigtails, pretty face and sweet voice really has the graceful beauty of a girl from the Jiangnan water town.
This was also her first time to see what the ladies from Jiangnan looked like.
Since she is one year older than her, Xiao Chunyu regards herself as her elder sister and takes care of her in every way.
"Those years were tough, but thankfully I had Xiao Chunyu by my side. We supported each other and kept going until... the year the college entrance exams were resumed!"
In 1977, the college entrance examination was resumed, and many students rekindled their desire to study, hoping to gain admission to university and change their destiny through the power of knowledge.
Shen Sisi and Xiao Chunyu were also very excited. They made an appointment to study together, take the college entrance examination together, and get out of this small mountain village.
"During that time, I used my own methods to find some old textbooks and read them day and night. I ignored Xiao Chunyu and didn't notice anything unusual about her."
At that time, Xiao Chunyu went out early and came back late every day, and he would laugh to himself from time to time, with a cold look on his face.
Shen Sisi even laughed at her at that time, asking if she was in love, but Xiao Chunyu said nothing and just kept being shy.
"I thought she had fallen for some educated youth, but I didn't expect...she came back pregnant!"
In that era, it was a very bad thing for a girl to get pregnant before marriage. She might even be arrested and charged with hooliganism.
Shen Sisi asked her who the father of her child was, but Xiao Chunyu gritted her teeth and refused to say anything. In order to prevent her good sister from being captured and poked in the back, Shen Sisi tried her best to cover up for her and take care of her.
"The conditions in the countryside were poor. Xiao Chunyu had severe morning sickness and could barely eat. Instead, she vomited every day. She was so thin that she looked like a ghost. I tried to find a way to get goat's milk from people and pick mushrooms for her to eat."
"Thankfully, she was very thin and her belly wasn't noticeable. Plus, it was winter and everyone was wearing thick cotton-padded jackets, so she was able to get away with it. But once spring came, the truth couldn't be hidden anymore. Xiao Chunyu's belly started to grow, and the villagers discovered it."
"At the time, everyone asked her whose child it was, but she refused to reveal it. That heartless scumbag never showed up, acting without responsibility. Seeing everyone looking like they were going to throw her into a pig cage, I couldn't stand it anymore. I stood up for her and told everyone that this child was a fatherless one. I would help her raise the child after it was born and would never cause any trouble to the village."
"Later, the old village chief agreed to my proposal and told everyone that the child was an adopted child and we didn't know whose family he belonged to, so we would keep him for the time being."
Originally, the matter was over, and Xiao Chunyu was preparing for the birth in peace in the broken house. Time passed quickly and it was June, which happened to be the thunderstorm season.
"That day, it was raining heavily. Our house was leaking everywhere, and the wind was blowing so hard it almost blew our house away. That night, Xiao Chunyu suddenly had a stomachache. She...she was about to give birth!"
