Chapter 128 My father is not your biological son?
Gu Juan also complained about her husband in her heart about the Dafang family, and even privately felt that Zhang Wen was punished for what he did.
Zhang Huihong was treated like this because of the secret arrangement of the eldest wife.
Of course, she herself is not a good person, otherwise she would not say such things.
The brothers Zhang Guihong and Zhang Guichun felt that what Gu Juan said was very right. Since Zhang Ze came to see his grandparents, it showed that he still had feelings for them. Let the two old people play the emotional card, and who knows, they might even give them money.
So they hurriedly got up and opened the door, and saw Zhang Ze and Zhang Huihong outside. Zhang Guichun's smile was warm and bright, but Zhang Guihong's smile was a little forced.
It’s not that he didn’t welcome Zhang Ze and the others, but his eldest son was now lying in bed, his life or death unknown, so how could he possibly laugh?
"Huihong, Aze, you are here, come in quickly!"
Zhang Ze ignored them, helped his mother into the house, and went straight to the master bedroom.
But when I walked in, I saw my haggard aunt and Zhang Wen lying on the bed with one leg missing.
My cousins didn’t see it either. I guess they all went out because of the commotion at home these days.
In the room, Aunt Zhang Ze turned around and saw Zhang Ze and Zhang Huihong, but she turned her head away immediately. She didn't have the heart to pay attention to them now.
Zhang Ze frowned, closed the door, turned around and asked, "Which room are grandpa and grandma in?"
His disregard made Zhang Guihong and the others look unhappy. Gu Juan even said in a sarcastic tone, "Tsk tsk, you think you are so great just because you made some money and moved to the city. You don't even know how to greet your elders when you see them."
"Elders?" Zhang Ze sneered, "How come I didn't know I still had elders after my father died? I came here today to visit my father and his parents. If you have any objections, then tell my father. Or, ask him to come and talk to you personally in the evening?"
The last sentence immediately made the three people's anger disappear, and instead they got goose bumps.
They all knew how Zhang Huihong's family had been doing over the years. Normally, they were fine, but when it came to the third son of the Zhang family, they would really feel guilty.
"Be careful or I'll sue you for being superstitious."
"Yes, it's feudal superstition! After all, feudal and superstitious things often happen in this village and nearby villages. I hope you won't encounter them." Zhang Ze threatened, but he and his mother continued to look for his grandparents' room.
Finally, they saw two elderly people in the smallest side room who had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.
There was a bowl of rice on the ground, and two mice were eating it. When they noticed someone was around, they quickly crawled under the bed.
Zhang Ze saw this scene and sighed in his heart: "Mom, go in, I'll stand at the door."
To be honest, he didn't know what to say to the two old people if he went in, so it would be better not to go in.
Zhang Huihong looked at Zhang Ze, who had a cold face since arriving at Zhang's house, and finally nodded and walked into the room.
The door of the room was closed, and Zhang Guichun, Gu Juan and others in the living room looked at each other. It was very quiet for a while.
Only Zhang Huihong's voice could be heard occasionally in the room, but it was impossible to hear what she said.
After more than 20 minutes, she came out with red eyes and whispered to her son standing at the door: "Aze, please go in. Your grandfather has something to tell you."
"Let's go and find a place to stay first. I have nothing to say!" Zhang Ze came here just to send the two elders off on behalf of his father. He had no intention of contacting them and felt that there was nothing to say between the two sides.
Zhang Huihong held her son who wanted to leave and said, "Just think of it as asking some questions on behalf of your father. There are some things they won't tell me."
Zhang Ze was silent for a moment, knowing that it was his mother who wanted to ask. The attitude of the two elders towards their family had always been a knot in Zhang's mother's heart. Obviously, she didn't get an answer from the two elders just now, so he finally walked into the room.
When Zhang Ze's grandmother saw him, she glanced at him and closed her eyes, looking as if she didn't want to pay attention to him. However, his grandfather slowly pointed to the stool next to him, indicating that he should sit down.
He didn't hesitate to ask directly after sitting down: "Isn't my father your biological son?"
"Cough cough cough" Zhang Ding, who was about to speak, was choked by his saliva and almost met his son early. Lu Yan, who originally didn't want to pay attention to anyone, also widened her eyes.
"Why do you ask that?" Zhang Ding asked after he took a breath. He was a little amused by this nonsensical question.
Zhang Ze spread his hands and said, "I think that only if you are not my biological children, you will ignore my family."
Lu Yan opened her mouth and kept saying "ahhhh", but was unable to utter a word. Her voice sounded very weak and saliva was flowing down the corners of her mouth. It looked like she had suffered a stroke.
Zhang Ding reached out and patted his wife with difficulty: "Let me tell you, don't get excited."
"Your father is our son, and you are our grandson."
Seeing the confusion in Zhang Ze's eyes, he stated the reason very straightforwardly: "I don't care whether you live or die, because your grandmother hates your mother in her heart. I used to hate her too."
"You don't have children yet, so you don't know the pain of losing your favorite child. If your mother hadn't insisted on going back to her parents' home that day, your father wouldn't have gotten into trouble."
"Your grandmother and I thought about it at the beginning. Why didn't you go down to accompany my son? Why did he stay alone?"
As for the provocative words behind the backs of his eldest daughter-in-law, second daughter-in-law, and two sons, he did not say anything.
He was struggling mentally at the time, but finally, because of some words from his two sons and daughter-in-law, he decided to just turn a blind eye.
But these words made Zhang Ze's breathing suddenly stop. He didn't expect that his father's death would cause the two old men to have such strong hatred.
Thinking back to my childhood, my grandparents were indeed better to me than Zhang Wen.
After all, Zhang Wen is the eldest grandson, so it is obvious that he treats me better because he loves me as well as his family.
Exhaling slowly, Zhang Ze found that he had no more questions to ask.
There is no point in asking them if they are not afraid of not being able to face their son.
Zhang Ze closed his eyes and thought about it from their perspective, but since he had not experienced it himself, he found that he could not put himself in their shoes.
Different positions have nothing to do with right or wrong.
When he opened his eyes again, there was less indifference in Zhang Ze's eyes.
"Aze, we never thought you would come, so please don't come in the future! Since you have left Qinghe Village, just live your own lives well in the future." Zhang Ding looked at him with complicated eyes.
After they both lay down on the bed, everything in the past was put aside.
Maybe I have let it go long ago, but I don't show it on my face.
They all understood their debt to Zhang Ze's family, so they never expected that their grandson would come to see them off a hundred years later.
Zhang Ze nodded, stood up and left the room.
In fact, the two elders did not owe their family anything, and legally speaking, they had no obligation to help their family.

But the family relationship was severed because of this, and Zhang Ze did not change his attitude because of the old man's last words.
He opened the door and saw his mother leaning against the wall in a daze. He went over to support her and said, "Mom, let's go!"
Mother Zhang nodded and let her son help her leave the Zhang family.
Gu Juan looked at them leaving and seemed to want to say something, but when she thought of Zhang Ze's attitude, she finally did not dare to speak.
When they arrived at the yard, Zhang Ze saw the two brothers Zhang Qinghu who had been waiting for them. After leaving Zhang's house, they went towards the captain's house.
"Let's go to my house. My mother has cleaned up a room for my aunt to live in. You can stay with me tonight." Zhang Qinghe came to him and said.
Zhang Ze shook his head: "It's still early now, let's go back directly, and then come over to see them off after the two elders leave."
He originally thought that the two old men were almost dead, so he planned to stay in the village for a few days to see them off for the last time on behalf of his father.
But judging from the way they looked just now, it might take a few more days, so there's no need to stay.
"Aze, you go back first. Mom will stay in the village for a while!"
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Zhang Huihong sniffed her sour nose and said, "Mom has been thinking, if you leave because of Shuyao, will Mom hate Shuyao?"
"Will I drive Shuyao away and leave the child to raise well?"
"Or did you drive them away because you hated her?"
"I even kept asking myself if it was possible to not blame her and accept her!"
"I thought about it for a long time but I still couldn't figure it out. So I think your grandparents must have been struggling at the time."
Zhang Ze was stunned: "Mom, did you hear everything?"
"You didn't close the door properly." Zhang Huihong indeed heard everything. After understanding the reason, she let go of the resentment and hatred in her heart, and planned to take care of the two elderly people who were already lying in bed for her husband who had saved her and her children.
"Mom, you have no obligation to take care of them! Since they chose the eldest and second uncles, they need to bear the consequences themselves."
Zhang Ze didn't want Zhang's mother to stay, even though he had seen the bowl of rice on the ground eaten by a rat.
"Besides, it wasn't your fault what happened back then. No one knew something like that would happen."
"Just like the two families that caused trouble outside Zhang's house, who knew they would be eaten by sharks when they went out to sea?"
Mother Zhang did not argue, but patted her son's hand with a smile: "They don't have much time left, I should take good care of them for your father."
"Oh~" Zhang Ze sighed, knowing that there was no way to persuade Zhang's mother, so he had to trouble the captain's family.
He had sold almost all the things in his old house, and there was nothing left in it, making it uninhabitable.
Moreover, he felt more at ease since Zhang's mother lived in the captain's house.
After leaving two hundred yuan and some tickets, Zhang Ze took Zhang Qinghe and Zhang Qinghu back home.
As he was sailing on the sea, he felt very bad. He couldn't describe how he felt, but he just felt like there was a feeling of depression in his heart that he couldn't vent.
"Aze, let's go for a drink together later?" Zhang Qinghe knew that he was in a bad mood, so he suggested it from the side.
"Let's drink first. Qing He, do you want to fish up that man-eating tiger shark?" Zhang Ze thought about it and felt that he still had to vent.
He saw many fishing boats along the way, and it was obvious that the tiger shark had not been caught yet, so he simply caught a tiger shark to vent his anger.
He would definitely not do this originally, but with an indestructible fishing rod and a matching base that can be installed on the side of the boat for trolling, there is nothing to be afraid of.
