Unexpectedly, after the girl wrote to her family about the matter, her family strongly opposed it and even used their connections to have her brother forcibly take her back home, separating the two.
Yan Gusheng waited at home for two months, but received no word from the girl, so he went to the city to chase after her.
After inquiring, I learned that the girl had been forced into marriage by her family and was even pregnant.
Disheartened, Yan Gusheng quickly got married as arranged by his family.
Naturally, the person he married was Wu Chunlan.
Soon after, Wu Chunlan also became pregnant.
Although Yan Gusheng still harbored feelings for his ex-girlfriend, he treated Wu Chunlan very well and had already decided to forget about her.
In fact, in those days, most couples got married without any feelings for each other; they just had to get married and have children when they reached a certain age.
Although Yan Gusheng didn't have deep feelings for Wu Chunlan, Wu Chunlan didn't think there was anything wrong with Yan Gusheng.
Anyway, the two of them are living a good life.
Before she knew it, Wu Chunlan was more than seven months pregnant. Her family was eagerly anticipating the arrival of the child, as it would be the Yan family's first child.
But one night, Wu Chunlan suddenly had severe abdominal pain and even started bleeding. The village's barefoot doctor said it was premature labor and she might be about to give birth.
So the Yan family called the village midwife, but the midwife said that Wu Chunlan's baby was in an abnormal position and she definitely couldn't give birth at home. She told her to go to the hospital immediately, and to the county hospital, otherwise the baby might not survive.
At the time, the Yan family was relatively well-off and valued the child highly, so they arranged for someone to help them send Wu Chunlan to the county hospital overnight.
The problem is that after Wu Chunlan gave birth to the child at the hospital, the doctor announced that the child had already suffocated in the womb and could not be saved after birth.
Yan Gusheng and his mother accompanied Wu Chunlan to the hospital at the time, and they were unable to accept the news for a while.
Wu Chunlan was already unconscious when she arrived at the hospital and had no idea what had happened.
Quite by chance, just when Yan Gusheng and his mother were heartbroken, they ran into the girl's brother at the county hospital.
The girl's brother happened to be working at that hospital at that time.
Because he was the one who picked the girl up to go home, and he knew Yan Gusheng, he naturally knew about the relationship between his sister and Yan Gusheng.
As soon as he saw Yan Gusheng, he immediately called him aside and told him something.
He said that the girl gave birth to a child yesterday. The child was born to Yan Gu, but because she was already married and had a child, her family did not want her to raise someone else's child. They were also worried that if her current husband found out that the child was not his, it would be troublesome. So they took the child away and lied to the couple, saying that the child could not be saved.
Originally, they planned to give the child away to be raised by someone else, but since they had met Yan Gusheng, they asked him if he was willing to take the child.
He even brought the child over.
At the time, because the matter came so suddenly, Yan Gusheng had no idea what to do. However, Yan's mother, upon seeing the child, immediately agreed to let the Yan family raise the child.
Because the child looked exactly like Yan Gu when he was a child, even the mole in his eyebrow was exactly the same.
At the time, Yan's mother was convinced that the child must be Yan Gusheng's, and that it was such a coincidence that they met, so it was destined that the child was a member of the Yan family.
After bringing the child over, Yan's mother came up with another explanation, suggesting that Yan Gusheng tell Wu Chunlan that the child was theirs.
Unfortunately, Wu Chunlan also lost her child, and Wu Chunlan was completely unaware of this.
The child was only a day old, so there was no way to tell.
Yan Gusheng initially refused, feeling that it would be unfair to Wu Chunlan, since Wu Chunlan had not done anything wrong.
But the strict mother said that this was killing two birds with one stone.
Firstly, if Wu Chunlan knew that she had lost her child, she would definitely be devastated.
Secondly, this child is a member of the Yan family, and they cannot abandon him.
Just as Yan Gusheng was hesitating, Wu Chunlan woke up and, not seeing the child, was indeed very agitated.
So, after much hesitation, Yan Gusheng finally agreed.
Since only the three of them came to the county town to give birth, as long as the mother and child kept quiet, no one would know.
Moreover, this was indeed fate; it just so happened to happen at this particular time.
After that, the child was brought back, and this child was naturally Yan Junting.
Because Yan's mother spent some money to bribe the doctor and nurses who delivered Wu Chunlan's baby, Wu Chunlan remained unaware of the truth.
Yan's mother and Yan Gusheng were also happy to see this, and kept it a secret from everyone.
Yan Junting thought that this matter could be kept secret forever, but unexpectedly, last month, after Wu Chunlan returned from Kyoto, someone in the village told her about it.
They also said that Yan Junting's maternal uncle came to the village looking for someone, and everyone in the village knew about it.
Actually, everyone in the village knew about Yan Gusheng's relationship with Yan Junting's mother back then, but since it didn't work out and Yan Gusheng married Wu Chunlan, no one brought it up again.
On one occasion, when Yan Junting's maternal uncle came over, the villagers brought up the matter again, and everyone recalled what happened back then.
Originally, when Yan Junting's uncle came, Wu Chunlan was in Kyoto. However, there were always some busybodies in the village who told Wu Chunlan the truth as soon as she returned.
When Wu Chunlan found out about this, she hated Yan Gusheng to the core.
The two originally had a good relationship, and had even lived together for decades with very few arguments. But this incident caused a huge uproar.
This is why Wu Chunlan was so indifferent when Yan Gusheng fell ill this time.
She felt that she had been deceived for so many years, which was not worth it at all.
As for Yan Junting, her feelings were naturally different.
After learning all this, Yun Duoduo remained silent for a long time. As the saying goes, nothing is more coincidental than a story.
If Wu Chunlan hadn't gone to the county town to give birth at that time, Yan Junting would probably be nowhere to be found now.
Or, to put it another way, if Wu Chunlan's child had been saved, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
So it really is true that many things are preordained.
Having learned all this, Yun Duoduo contacted the woman named Ning Yue she had seen at the hospital that day. She suddenly asked Yan Gusheng, "Dad, when you were discharged from the hospital that day, was Ning Yue, the woman we saw at the hospital, Jun Ting's biological mother?"
