“We didn’t take our anger out on you because we were afraid of upsetting Nannan, but we will not forgive you for what you did.”
Once Wei Baichuan sat down, Su's father spoke frankly.
Wei Baichuan can do nothing, but if he sides with his parents, they will deal with him as well.
"Mom and Dad, my wife is the most important person in my heart," Wei Baichuan said earnestly.
He knew they just wanted to teach the Wei family a lesson, not really take their lives. He was worried about how to get them to behave.
Wei Baichuan sometimes felt that he was also a cold-hearted and selfish person. When he heard others say that they wanted to deal with his parents, he did not feel any anger as a son.
He was preoccupied with figuring out how to stop the Wei family from causing them any more trouble.
If he had a choice, he would rather the Wei family disappeared from his life.
He knew he had to put on an act, pretending to be in a difficult situation, otherwise others would think he was heartless.
But he didn't want to put on an act in front of his wife and her family. They didn't make things difficult for him, nor did they look down on him.
It would be exhausting to lose your true self in front of your family.
“Mom and Dad, Baichuan and the Wei family are two different things,” Su Ti said at the right moment.
She was also afraid that her parents would think Baichuan was heartless, so she told them about his childhood and other unknown things.
Wei Baichuan was stunned. There were many things that no one knew except his family. How did his wife know so much?
"Are you her biological daughter?" Guo Xuqing asked this only one question after hearing what her daughter said. How could there be such parents?
“I look like my father.” Wei Baichuan used to doubt it, but he was the one among his children who looked most like his father.
No one would doubt that he wasn't their biological son. Besides, he was born at home, and the midwife was an aunt from the village.
He had secretly asked her about it, and the auntie smiled and said that he was very chubby when he was born, a rare chubby baby in the surrounding area.
Even with his suspicions, he knew he was a child of the Wei family, only he himself was not well-liked.
"Mom and Dad, not everyone is as good as you, treating your child like a treasure." Suti rested her head on her mother's shoulder. She was very happy; she had a family who loved her.
Compared to her, Wei Baichuan suffered the most.
In his past life, neither his family nor his lover cared about him, and in the end, he didn't even leave behind any bloodline.
“Child, from now on we are your family.” Guo Xuqing looked at her precious daughter leaning on her shoulder, then at her son-in-law standing awkwardly over there.
Such a good child, the Wei family doesn't want him, but they do.
"Mom and Dad, I know I don't have any great abilities, but don't worry, I will treat Su Ti well for the rest of my life."
Wei Baichuan didn't know how to express his determination; he had nothing to offer.
Whether it's family background or the people in their family, they are worlds apart from Suti.
Matchmakers also value the compatibility of social status when arranging marriages. He knew that if his wife hadn't been schemed against by her cousin, they would never have crossed paths in their lives.
His wife is like the moon in the sky, now she has fallen into his arms, and he only wants to keep her here.
He looked behind him; it was pitch black and chaotic, and he felt utterly insecure.
These few dry words, if you put yourself in his shoes, you wouldn't be willing to do it either if you were in his shoes.
Thinking about it this way, he felt that he was really shameless and had a petty mind. If he were really a good person, he should have generously said to let go.
"Baichuan, I know my own daughter. She has you in her heart. We won't break them up."
"You've also made it clear to us that no matter what happens in the future, you'll always stand by Nannan's side. The Wei family is the Wei family, and you are you."
Su's father's words reassured Wei Baichuan, and he was overjoyed.
He looked up in disbelief and saw his wife's bright eyes and his father-in-law's smiling faces.
They approve of him? They won't take his wife with them? And his wife likes him?
Wei Baichuan's mind was in turmoil, but he was mostly moved. So what if he was selfish? There were still people willing to stay for him.
Seeing Wei Baichuan's excited and silly appearance, Su Ti knew that the things he was worried about would never happen.
Does this fool not know that she came into this world for him?
That evening, Su Ti personally cooked a delicious meal for her parents, and Guo Xuqing and his wife were quite surprised as they ate the food their daughter had prepared.
They used to be busy, and Suti learned to cook when she was very young. The taste was so bad that it was best left unmentioned, but it was still edible.
Looking at the food in front of me, I can tell that this isn't something that can be mastered in a day or two.
The two exchanged a glance, wondering what Nannan had gone through in the past year or so, how her personality and temper had changed, and how she had become smarter.
Her cooking skills have improved, and if it weren't for the fact that it's still that familiar person, the warm feeling is undeniable, they would almost think their daughter is a completely different person.
The family gathered together for a reunion dinner, their faces beaming with rare, happy smiles.
After finishing their meal, Guo Xuqing took her daughter's hand and led her into the inner room, where she opened two boxes.
“Come here, little girl. Your grandparents know we’re coming to see you. This is the dowry they’ve prepared for you.”
"These are the quilt and wedding dress that your maternal grandmother made herself. She originally intended to save them for you to wear when you got married, but she didn't have time."
"And these are your maternal grandmother's dowry, which she left to your mother. Now that you're married, it's time to pass them on to you."
"Just keep it as a souvenir, don't take it out casually." Guo Xuqing opened a set of jewelry and handed it to Su Ti.
These items have survived to this day and are so well preserved; they must have some special meaning.
"There's also the savings account and the house. These were saved by your maternal grandfather and father. You and your brother will each have half of the money and the house."
"There's 30,000 yuan in this passbook. Take this safe; it will give you confidence no matter what you do in the future."
"And the houses, not to mention the houses allocated by the work unit in Shanghai, who knows what will happen to them in the future. You and your brother can each take one of the two remaining villas at home."
“That was allocated to your maternal grandfather by the higher authorities back then. There are proper procedures involved; it’s all in the open.”
"In addition, your father and I have also bought several houses in recent years without any disputes."
“There is a housing shortage in the city now. Too many educated youth have gone to the countryside, but they all want to go back to the city. Your father thinks that things might not be the same in the future.”
"No matter what happens in the future, housing in the city will definitely be in short supply, so we bought a few relatively spacious houses to keep. These are the ones hidden away."
“Keep three sets for yourself, and give the other two sets to your brother. We know you suffered a lot of grievances when you went to the countryside, so it’s only right to give you a little more.”
"If you encounter difficulties in the future, you can resell those houses. These will be your financial security in the future."
"Mom and Dad can still earn money. No matter how much it is in the future, it will be split equally between you and your brother."
