Pei Qingsong knew he would ask directly, but he didn't expect him to be so direct.
It turns out that he just learned about this matter not long ago.
How long is soon?
Li Dani just confronted him last night.
"Old Four, no matter what, the four of us are brothers. Don't worry too much about the others."
It’s not that he doesn’t want to say it, but saying it will bring more harm to his brother.
Anyway, they have lived in the same family for so many years and have developed feelings for each other, so why can't they continue to treat each other like brothers as if they didn't know each other?
Pei Yuanzheng agreed with the idea of being brothers, but he couldn't just be someone else's son for twenty-five years and be treated poorly for eighteen years.
He had no intention of revenge or finding his relatives, he just wanted to know the truth.
Pei Yuanzheng looked straight at Pei Qingsong without saying a word, but the oppressive feeling in his eyes made Pei Qingsong sigh and choose to compromise.
"I know what you want to know. You are indeed not our biological child. Your parents adopted you when you were very young. Your father was a martyr in the clan. Your mother fell ill after your father passed away, and she died soon after. Since there was no one else in your family, the clan let others adopt you. It was your father who brought you back."
The meaning behind his words was obvious.
You are an orphan. Your parents adopted you and raised you to adulthood. Even if they were not as good to you as they were to other children, you should not feel resentful.
Pei Yuanzheng was not so easily fooled. He said slowly, "What about the money my father earned from his death? And if I remember correctly, the families of martyrs can receive a living allowance from the commune every month. How come I have never seen it?"
He has no other relatives, so there is no such thing as elderly people in the family. The living expenses should be paid until adulthood, and the amount is not low, enough to support an ordinary family.
Of course it was impossible for Pei Qingsong to ask him not to feel resentful.
"Brother, thank you for telling me this. I won't pursue it any further, but it's impossible not to blame."
Using the compensation money from his biological father and treating him harshly for so many years, the best you can say is that it prevented him from starving to death.
Because he starved to death, he couldn't receive the compensation.
Pei Qingsong did not continue his counseling of Pei Yuanzheng because Pei Qingbai and Pei Qingyang came back on bicycles, followed by a group of people.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, everyone wanted to ride a bicycle, but there were not so many seats, so they had no choice but to run back.
As soon as the little ones came over, they crowded in front of Pei Yuanzheng and Ruan Niannian, chattering one after another, with bright lights shining in their eyes.
"Uncle Four, two bicycles! You actually bought two bicycles. That's amazing!"
"Uncle Si, my dad said that if Aunt Si and I were praised for our studies, he would lend me your bicycle and take me out for a ride. Really? Really?"
"Aunt, my dad said that Uncle Si doesn't have the final say. It's up to you to decide. Can we take a bicycle? Can we?"
"Aunt Si, I can't go to class yet. I'll help you with the work. Can you let me ride on your bike?"
…
The innocent words made Ruan Niannian laugh uncontrollably, especially the sentence "My dad said that it doesn't count if Fourth Uncle is familiar with him, it has to depend on what you say."
It's amazing.
These kids are so good at talking and they are so good at handling things.
Ruan Niannian put her hands behind her back, forced the corners of her mouth down, and shouted in a low voice: "If you want to ride a bicycle, you can. Xiaodan and Xiaoqing, who haven't started classes yet, can ride as long as they help the family with three things every day. As for the others, as long as they have learned the daily lessons, they can ride."
This sentence brought cheers.
Xiaodan and Xiaoqing ran to the stove hand in hand. They couldn't help with anything else, but they could help get something occasionally.
As for the other children, Pei Guohui took the lead and asked, "Fourth Aunt, where are we going to have class? Do we need to borrow a room from the team leader?"
"That's a good idea. Who's going?" Ruan Niannian nodded. "Reward Guohui with a chance to ride a bicycle."
Pei Hehui immediately ran to the field: "I'm going to ask the captain to borrow a room."
He is quite clever.
The room was quickly rented, but a student was included.
He brought back a bunch of keys and a girl who looked very well behaved.
"Aunt Four, the team leader said that all the empty rooms can be used, and he wanted our daughter to study with us." Pei Hehui conveyed Pei Qingshan's meaning.
Okay.
Fortunately, Pei Guohui and his classmates' progress was not very fast, and Nannan was only two classes behind in math and Chinese. Today was just the right time for her to review with others and catch up with Nannan at the same time.
Ruan Niannian opened a conference room. There were no materials in the conference room, but there were many tables and chairs. Although the tables and chairs were a bit old, it was already an excellent learning place for children who had no school.
Before the class officially started, Ruan Niannian asked Nannan what her name was.
The well-behaved girl pursed her lips and whispered, "My name is Nannan."
Pei Hehui rushed to say, "Aunt Four, Nannan was given the name by the team leader uncle. Her mother said that a humble name would make her easier to raise, so she didn't give her a name. She is now called Pei Nannan."
He spoke as if he had seen Pei Qingshan talking to his wife right there.
I guess it was Mrs. Pei who learned it at home.
As soon as he finished speaking, Nannan lowered her head and made a mosquito-like excuse, "I will have a name. My dad said that he would give me a name when I grow up."
Ruan Niannian believed what Pei Qingshan said.
Nannan seemed not to believe it, and she didn't seem to have any confidence when she spoke.
"Your father must have forgotten!" Pei Jianhui said angrily, "Otherwise, you are already eight years old. Why hasn't he given you a name in such a long time?"
Pei Xiaoli, who was sitting next to Nannan, held her hand and asked Ruan Niannian, "Fourth Aunt, you are the best. Can you help Nannan pick a name?"
"Yes, yes, Fourth Aunt, you graduated from high school and are the most educated person in our village. You should give our daughter a name!" Pei Xiaowen also echoed.
Ruan Niannian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She thought that either Nannan's mother favored boys over girls, or Nannan was the one in between and was not valued.
No matter what the situation was, she had no right to name her daughter.
After weighing the options, Ruan Niannian looked at Nannan sincerely and said, "Nannan, the teacher cannot give you a name. Your name must be approved by your parents. Can the teacher give you a school name?"
"scientific name?"
"Yes, it's a name used only when studying. Is that okay?"
Nannan widened her eyes and nodded gratefully, "Sure, Fourth Auntie... No, Teacher Ruan, please give me a school name!"
