Chapter 61 There are no secrets in a village (2/2)



Su Yue looked up and said, "Could you please not care so much about what your parents said and did to you in the past? It hurts me. You are good-looking and a promising battalion commander. Most importantly, you will soon have a lovely child. Do you hope that our child will be like his father, keeping everything bottled up inside and silently enduring being bullied? When he grows up, he will not be able to distinguish between good and bad friends. He will think he has made a close friend when someone only pretends to be sincere and gives a little bit, and then he will be tricked into the abyss and almost unable to get out."

What she didn't say was that Fu Shen seemed like a different person when he saw Fu Liugen and Liu Xiuying.

Fu Shen was taken aback. This wasn't referring to him... He asked in a low voice, "Am I really that bad?"

Su Yue shook her head. "It's not that it's bad. It's just that you didn't receive much love from your parents growing up. Jiang Huaidong only helped you a little bit, and you sincerely treated him as a good friend. It's easy to be deceived like that. Of course, not everyone is like them. Uncle Wu, your second brother and sister-in-law are very good to you."

Fu Shen: "..." He could still tell that it was terrible.

Fu Shen looked at Su Yue and assured her, "I will change."

His children can't be as bad as him.

He also realized that he felt a sense of rejection towards this land, whether it was due to his childhood experiences or his parents, and he became less decisive than he had been in the army.

I'm timid and hesitant, and I don't like this version of myself at all.

Su Yue's eyes lit up. "Really?"

Fu Shen nodded: "Really."

Su Yue's lips curled up slightly, "I'll trust you for now."

Fu Shen's face was full of doting: "Why only temporarily believe?"

Su Yue glanced at him and snorted, "I haven't found out where your real parents are yet, so you can't bring yourself to be cruel to your current parents."

Thinking to himself, if only Fu Shen could treat Jiang Huaidong just as decisively, Fu Liugen and Liu Xiuying would be better off.

But if she hadn't found out whether Fu Liugen and the others were Fu Shen's biological parents, and Fu Shen was so heartless and ungrateful, she probably wouldn't want to see him as that kind of person.

Sigh, humans are just contradictory.

The two chatted for a while longer, and then Su Yue told Fu Shen to eat a few steamed buns before going to work in the fields.

When Fu Shen arrived at the field, he glanced around at the crowd and asked others which plot of land Wu Guoliang and the others were on.

Having found them, Wu Guoliang leaned close to Fu Shen and whispered, "I heard you separated from the family?"

Fu Shen raised an eyebrow: "It hasn't been long, and you already know?"

Wu Guoliang chuckled, “There’s no such thing as a secret that stays hidden forever.”

Fu Shen: "How come none of you know that Chen Yinmei is my aunt's daughter? Only Uncle Wu knows."

Wu Guoliang stammered, "Isn't it because Chen Yinmei's home is far from our village?"

Fu Shen: "Enough talk, let's get to work. I'm going to town with Yueyue to buy things this afternoon."

He and Su Yue had agreed to go to town to retrieve some of the meat, fruit, eggs, rice, noodles, and other food from inside.

I'm going to visit Su Yue's hometown, to see the person who looks like me.

With Fu Shen joining the team, Wu Guoliang quickly finished half of the work on his assigned plot of land.

Those around saw Fu Shen helping Wu Guoliang with his work, but no one came over to help Fu Liugen and the others.

He was laughing at them in his heart. Their son, who hadn't been back for ten years, was now back and doing something crazy. Well, he'd been completely banished to someone else's house.

Liu Xiuying felt resentment, but she had to endure it.

That unfilial son said that if she and Fu Liugen talked a few more words, he wouldn't give them five yuan a month.

If they cause trouble in the military, I'll just come back to farming.

As expected, children who aren't related by blood are different; they speak so harshly and would turn against even their own family if angered. They must have taken after their parents.

They were afraid that if they continued to make trouble, Fu Shen would know that he was not their biological son and would not get a penny in the end, so they had no choice but to swallow their anger and agree.

With nothing to do at home, Su Yue went out to find wild vegetables, carrying a small basket.

It's such a waste that the vegetables in the garden are growing so well, yet we can't pick them to eat.

Fu Shen said that the food in the space cannot be taken out and eaten casually; a reason that will not arouse suspicion must be found.

Of course, there's no problem with the two of them eating.

When Aunt Lin from next door saw Su Yue come out carrying a basket, she hesitated for a moment before asking, "Fu Shen's wife, are you going to find wild vegetables?"
