"No way, Ye Zi is a high school student, she is so knowledgeable, how can she not be satisfied with this?" There are so many high school students in the village, and you can't even count them on one hand.
Some people are not optimistic. Not to mention the high-ranking officials, even people in the county town look down on them, the rural people: "It's really hard to say. The top students are also from the countryside. The city people look down on us rural people and say we are just mud legs."
"Well, what's there to be afraid of? If you don't like it, just come back. How can the children of our village be bullied? If it's good, go back. If it's not good, come back. As long as you still live in the village, with Uncle Chen here, no one dares to bully Ye Zi."
"Speaking of Uncle Chen, do you think he will be so nice to Ye Zi in the future?" These are no longer members of the Chen family.
"How could you think of Uncle Chen like that? Uncle Chen is not someone who cares about blood ties. Otherwise, how could he not have gone to see off the eldest and second elders of the Chen family when they died? Uncle Chen is very conscious."
"That's right, what's Uncle Chen's fate? Neither of his two children is related by blood."
"Hey, I don't agree with that. What's wrong with not being related by blood?"
"Look at how filial those two children are to Uncle Chen. Not to mention Ye Zi, all the clothes Uncle Chen has been wearing in the past two years were bought by Ye Zi."
"Look at Shuanzhu. He's only a little kid. My kid still pees and plays in the mud all day long, but Shuanzhu has already taken care of the house perfectly. Not to mention he's a great cook. Who else can compare to him?"
"You are right. Sometimes biological children are not as filial as adopted children." Those who agree with this are all open-minded people.
As the few people walked away, the discussions behind them became louder and louder. As they talked, those who disagreed almost rolled up their sleeves and started fighting.
Several educated youth stood behind the crowd, their expressions were quite complicated. It turned out that the rural girl they looked down upon had such a good family background. They could tell at a glance that the man was not a simple man.
Especially Kang Rubing, she was still thinking about whether she could establish a good relationship with Gao Fei and the others and find a way to leave here as soon as possible. It seems that it is impossible now. She regretted not establishing a good relationship with that country girl in advance.
Kang Rubing is proud. She thinks she has no choice but to come here. She is different from these rural people. She should be a little princess who is born to be superior.
So even after being here for almost three years, she is still not familiar with the villagers here and always keeps her distance, for fear of being assimilated by these country bumpkins.
Especially for a country girl like Chen Ye, even if she looks pretty, she doesn't attract much attention from her. No matter how pretty her face is, she still has to deal with dirt and feces every day.
The villagers are not stupid. The contempt and disdain in Kang Rubing's eyes are obvious. Who would want to go and find such a person and make themselves uncomfortable? It seems that they are willing to pay attention to them, the educated youth.
Xu Bowen's mood was also quite complicated. He had briefly crossed paths with the village girl named Chen Ye. If only he had taken a different approach, had he stood on her side and said a few good words...
Now he has established this relationship. Once Chen Ye recognizes him as his relative, his good days will come. This man named Chen Ye is not only capable but also has a good background. Wouldn't his life be so easy now?
Zhou Peipei's eyes were full of envy, but not jealousy. Since she broke up with Xu Bowen, this girl seemed to have sobered up a lot. Besides, Chen Ye was her savior after all. Although she couldn't bring herself to thank him properly, she was very grateful to Chen Ye in her heart.
She saw Xu Bowen's expression and the complexity under his eyes from the corner of her eye, and sneered. How blind she was to fall for such a thing, and she made her parents' life miserable now.
She also deliberately looked at Kang Rubing's expression, and was even more disdainful in her heart. Looking at the extremely aloof person, the jealousy and unwillingness in her eyes were revealed. He usually pretended to be nothing but a petty person.
She snorted, took another look at the backs of the group of people walking away, turned around and left. Nothing was more important than living her own life well. She also wanted to go back and reunite with her parents.
Chen Ye and the others sat under the eaves of Chen Ye's house in silence. Chen Ye didn't know what to say. Cen Boxu was organizing his words, thinking about how to make his daughter recognize him.
Gao Fei and Cen Zixiang didn't dare to say anything at all. They always felt that now was not a good time to speak up, not to mention Shi Zhong, who felt that he should not be involved at all. This was the boss's family affair and he couldn't say anything.
It was unknown how long it took before Cen Boxu spoke: "Well, my name is Cen Boxu, I'm 38 years old, single, my parents are still alive, I have two older brothers, and I have four nephews."
Chen Ye??? Why does this line feel a little off?
Not to mention Chen Ye felt something was wrong, even Shi Zhong wanted to cover his face. What was he talking about? If someone didn't know, they would think you were on a blind date.
Gao Fei and Cen Zixiang bit their cheeks tightly, for fear that they would laugh accidentally and be recorded in the notebook by their Third Uncle (Third Uncle Cen). They could not bear the retribution later.
As Cen Boxu was speaking, he seemed to sense something was wrong. He pretended to cough twice and decisively changed the subject.
"Ahem, well, I, I should be your father."
"You also know the reason. I really didn't know you existed, otherwise I wouldn't have left you alone, shouldering the burden of life at such a young age."
"Of course I'm not trying to shirk responsibility. I let your mother endure the rumors alone and didn't handle these things properly. It's all my fault."
"I don't know how to fulfill my responsibilities as a father, but I will try my best to learn how to be a qualified father."
"Are you... willing to recognize me?" Cen Boxu spoke more and more fluently.
Chen Ye...can't you really give me some more time to think about it?
The word "father" seemed to be far away from her for a long time. Obviously, it was not a pleasant title or role for Chen Ye. She always felt that it was good to be free on her own.
This so-called father suddenly appeared, and she didn't know how to treat him, and she didn't know whether she should accept him, because she didn't know whether accepting him would be pleasant or troublesome.
She knew that her condition was not right and that she had to weigh the pros and cons of recognizing a relative, but she was such a realistic person. She wanted to stay away from all sources of trouble and just want to live a quiet life.
Not seeing Chen Ye's reply, Cen Boxu panicked: "Well, let me tell you about the members of my family."
"We have grandparents and two uncles and aunts in our family. You have four older brothers from your eldest and second uncles' families. Zixiang is the youngest. The three older brothers are all soldiers. I'll bring them here for you to meet when I have the chance."
