Chapter 68 Telling Father the Truth
Cheng Hui turned to Cheng Jianming and smiled, "Dad, have you booked a guesthouse?"
"No, I went to your production team as soon as I got off the train, and then found this place." Cheng Jianming said.
Sun Tiemei brought him here in a horse-drawn carriage.
"Where do you want to stay tonight? Here or go back to the production team with me?" Cheng Hui asked.
Guo Dajun immediately said, "How can you let your father live here? It's too shabby! Come on, come on, your father must come home with me today!"
Cheng Jianming frowned slightly.
Cheng Hui knew him. He hated visiting other people's homes the most. In fact, he didn't like dealing with strangers.
A bit introverted and socially anxious.
"Let my dad live in the factory. Let him understand my working environment and he will feel at ease." Cheng Hui said:
"I'll stay at the factory tonight and have a good chat with my dad."
Guo Dajun immediately stopped persuading him.
Cheng Jianming's brows also relaxed.
There is already a heated brick bed in the staff lounge, and since everyone has been working overtime recently, there are enough beddings.
But Cheng Hui decided to buy a few pounds of cotton tomorrow to make herself a new bed!
There was a slight sound of a carriage at the gate, and Sun Tiemei arrived: "Xiaohui, I'm here to pick you up!"
Cheng Jianming... Never mind what kind of car it is, his daughter has already been picked up and dropped off by car?
Sun Tiemei got out of the car and saw Cheng Jianming, and her smile became a little awkward.
Cheng Jianming is a very handsome man, in his early forties, with black hair and a tall figure, and he doesn't look old at all.
His facial features are also very handsome, otherwise he would not have given birth to a daughter as beautiful as Cheng Hui.
Now he is wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, a suit, and a long leather coat, looking particularly gentle, knowledgeable and impressive.
It's obvious that she is not from the same world as him.
Cheng Hui pulled Sun Tiemei into the house and said, "Aunt, I left a bowl of meat for you. Take it back and eat with my uncle."
Sun Tiemei looked at the big bowl full of meat dishes, including large intestines, pork slices and ribs, and didn't dare to take any.
It’s more sumptuous than the Chinese New Year celebration at her home.
"Here, we just finished a pot, and this is specially reserved for you. You run so far to pick me up every day, and I remember it in my heart. If you don't accept me, I won't dare to ride in your car anymore!
"By the way, is Xiaozhi's bedding ready?" She changed the subject.
Sun Tiemei took the bowl reluctantly and said with a smile: "I was just about to tell you, it's all ready!"
"That's great. You can take her home and let her experience her new bedding. I won't go back tonight and will stay here with my dad." Cheng Hui said.
Sun Tiemei understood what he meant. There was only one kang in the room, and there was nothing wrong with the father and daughter sleeping on the same kang. Almost every family did this now.
Before getting married, everyone lives on a kang. Even when they go back to their parents’ home, they also live on a kang. If they don’t live there is nowhere else to live, there is only one kang!
But it won’t work if the young sister-in-law Gao Zhi is included. It’s not nice!
Besides, Cheng Jianming looked like a sophisticated city dweller, so he might also avoid it.
Sun Tiemei took Gao Zhi away.
Gao Zhi was a little reluctant to leave Cheng Hui, but she wanted to experience her new bedding even more! Left happily.
The others also withdrew.
Before leaving, Lao Hei heated up the kang in the house! He also filled the thermos for Cheng Hui's use.
Cheng Jianming...he has been in the business for more than 20 years, and just now he has someone to pour him a cup of hot water when he gets up early to go to work!
Cheng Hui suddenly seemed to remember something and said to Lao Hei, "Come with me to the city tomorrow and buy all the things your son needs for his wedding."
Lao Hei’s tears were about to burst out!
He turned around and continued to boil water!
"Your father came from far away. He must be tired after sitting on the train all day. I will make him some water to wash his feet."
Cheng Jianming... "No, no, this much in the thermos is enough!"
"No, that's for washing your faces tomorrow morning!"
Lao Hei refused to leave no matter what. He insisted on boiling a pot of water and watched them pour the water into the basin to wash their feet before leaving.
There were only the father and daughter left in the room. No one spoke and the atmosphere gradually became awkward.
Of course, Cheng Jianming was the only one who felt embarrassed.
Cheng Hui had practiced so hard that she had forgotten what embarrassment was.
She chuckled, "Dad, are you surprised?"
The tone is relaxed and friendly.
Cheng Jianming's embarrassment suddenly disappeared and he smiled.
"Yeah, that's really surprising. When did you learn mechanical design?" This was what surprised him the most.
"Reading books, my brother's room is full of these books." Cheng Hui said.
"Read a book? You can read it by yourself? Your brother hasn't even finished reading it yet!" Cheng Jianming said.
Cheng Hui smiled and said, "He is him and I am me, just because he can't see it doesn't mean I can't see it.
"Besides, how do you know he won't?"
She was going to teach him a lesson soon!
Cheng Jianming paused. He was an architectural designer, and the mechanical design he was learning from his son was like the difference between a bird and a fish. Neither of them understood the other.
Maybe his son really can do it? He just doesn't understand?
Putting this question aside for now, Cheng Jianming's smile cooled down: "Tell me, what's going on with your marriage?"
"Ah." Cheng Hui sighed: "This is a long story."
Cheng Jianming's heart suddenly began to tighten.
In the letter, she said she wanted to marry to "repay a favor."
In fact, it also implies "she is willing".
As long as she is willing, anything is fine.
But it won’t work if you are forced!
"You still remember Su Xiao, right? She was my classmate from childhood to adulthood. She often came to our house to play." Cheng Hui said.
Cheng Jianming didn't know how to turn the topic to her, but nodded: "I remember, what's wrong?"
The girl was too aloof. Every time she saw him, she would lean against him, hugging his arms and legs. She had no sense of boundaries, which he really disliked.
"It turns out that she likes Lu Junze." Cheng Hui said: "So she actually hates me very much. After that, she instigated a male educated youth to write a letter to Lu Junze, saying that I was in a relationship with him, and Lu Junze wrote me a breakup letter.
“Then she pretended to drown and asked me to save her, but when I grabbed her, she pushed me back into the water!
“I remember that feeling very clearly....I am also very sure that she did it on purpose!
“My last memory is still being in the water, that despair of death.
"When I woke up again, I was on the shore. I heard from the villagers that Gao Yuan passed by and pulled me out of the water. He then performed CPR and artificial respiration and saved me.
“The villagers didn’t know anything about CPR and artificial respiration, and they thought Gao Yuan was taking advantage of me. We both had a bad reputation.
"I couldn't let my lifesaver be branded as a hooligan, ridiculed, or punished by his employer, so I married him."
Cheng Hui finished speaking.
She had not told others before that Lidya Su was deliberately harming her, because she knew that it would do more harm than good.
She has no evidence, so it's just nonsense, and she is suspected of deliberately smearing her best friend.
But she can tell the truth to her relatives. They don’t need evidence, they just need to believe her.
Cheng Hui turned to look at her father and found that his eyes were fixed and his face was blue and purple. It seemed that he had forgotten to breathe!
Finally, Cheng Jianming took a breath, stood up from the kang, and shouted: "Where is she? I'll go find her!"
Cheng Hui's eyes suddenly felt a little sore.
