At that time, Teacher Chen was teaching in Gutian Commune. He had good grades and was always ranked first in the grade, but the Shen family did not want him to continue studying, saying that it would be good enough for him to graduate from elementary school.

Later, it was Principal Chen who went to Kaoshantun again and again to find the team leader at that time, and finally helped him finish high school.

After graduating from high school, he was admitted to the supply and marketing cooperative. He then gave the job to Shen Hai and went back to farming. Since then, he has never seen Teacher Chen again.

No one thought that they would meet again in this way.

Although they hadn't seen each other for more than 20 years, Shen Yu was now 40 years old. After the initial excitement passed, the two finally calmed down and started talking in the living room.

It was only at this time that he learned that Principal Chen was his eldest son, and that he was following in his father's footsteps.

Something happened to him back then, which resulted in him being paralyzed for more than ten years, but his son and daughter-in-law were filial and took good care of him.

Maybe this is a blessing in disguise.

Teacher Chen felt a little regretful when he saw Shen Yu, now middle-aged. If Shen Yu had taken the college entrance examination, he could have been admitted to the best university in Beijing based on his grades.

Not only did he bring honor to his alma mater and hometown, but it was also an important turning point in his own life.

You have to know that they were college students in the 1950s.

It's a pity that I have to face such a family.

He clearly remembered that Shen Yu's biological mother, Old Lady Shen, ran to the school, holding a rope, and threatened that if Shen Yu was allowed to take the college entrance examination, she would hang herself at the school gate.

People in the commune were alarmed at the time, and some people supported him, but the young Shen Yu eventually followed Old Lady Shen back home.

Recalling the past, Teacher Chen couldn't help but sigh, but no matter how regrettable it was, it had been more than 20 years.

There is no point in saying anything, it will only add to the sadness.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Teacher Chen tried his best to get Shen Yu to finish his lunch here before leaving. He naturally knew that Shen Yu's son had saved his son, so he became closer to Shen Yu.

Shen Yu said gently, "Teacher Chen, I will come to see you again when I have a chance. The tractor of the brigade has just returned to the village, and I still have to go to the West Market to buy some daily necessities..."

Teacher Chen felt very sorry, but he also knew that Kaoshantun was quite far from the county town. It had snowed recently, so the road must be difficult to travel. "That's settled. Come and see me when you have time."

Shen Yu's eyes were misty, and she choked up a little, "Well, I'll come."

Shen Yu did not go to Xiji Market, and the brigade’s tractor had already returned to Kaoshantun.

He carried the empty basket on his back and walked towards home step by step.

As he walked, he stopped by the roadside and looked around. The earth was desolate and the north wind was howling and blowing up the snow on the ground, making it flutter down, as if another heavy snow had fallen.

The heavy snow came very early this year and lasted for three days and three nights. Although the sun was shining, it was not warm, so it did not melt as quickly as in previous years.

He stood straight on the roadside like a sculpture.

But there were unspeakable thoughts and hatred in his eyes.

That hatred was directed at Old Man Shen and Old Lady Shen, as well as at myself.

After all, he was too young and stupid. He was worried that Old Lady Shen would really die, so he knelt on the ground and cried, promising not to go to college and to stay at home to be filial to them.

Not only did he ruin his own future, but he also caused his wife and children to suffer.

Meanwhile in Yuncheng, Luo Aofu had been ill for more than half a month.

She fell ill after Shen Zheming told her that Shen Zhehan had stayed with an elderly couple from the countryside for several days and left with a lot of bags.

There is not much sadness, but more fear, anger and fear.

There was no need to guess, she knew from Zheming's few words that it must be the vicious couple Shen Mancang.

After all these years, they still had the guts and nerve to come look for their son! She thought they would never dare to show up again in their lifetime.

But she was wrong, absolutely wrong! That couple was so vicious and greedy, how could they keep it a secret? Maybe they thought that their son, now the head of the family, could do whatever he wanted in the Shen family.

So, she came to recognize her son without any consideration? Even more frightening is that maybe they have been dating for a long time? She couldn't help but think of Shen Zhehan's reaction in the past month or so. He looked at her and her husband with evasive eyes.

After the old man fell ill, he didn't seem sad at all. You know, in the entire Shen family, the old man was the best to him.

Just because this is his eldest son and grandson.

How could he be so heartless? The Shen family gave him a carefree life, a life of wealth and glory, making him a superior person. How could he associate with those two bastards?

And that evil boy didn't reveal even a single bit of it.

If Zhe Ming hadn't told her, she might have been kept in the dark her whole life.

Luo Aofu regretted it! She was from a low-class family, and when the old man married Shen Hongxiu, he didn't agree. If he knew that she lost the eldest son of the Shen family due to carelessness, she would definitely be kicked out of the house.

By that time, when she knew the truth, Shen Mancang and the other man had long disappeared. It would be fine if her son was still alive, but if he was killed by these two old guys, then she would really become the biggest sinner of the Shen family.

With Mr. Shen's methods, not only will her husband divorce her, but he might even kill her without a burial place.

She is selfish and cowardly.

So after two days and two nights of fear, the matter was kept secret.

Her biological son and Shen Mancang's son were born only five days apart.

Shen Mancang and his wife were servants in the family. Shen Mancang was an orphan before and didn’t even know his last name. The old man felt sorry for him and gave him the last name Shen.

He used to work in the farm, and later he got married. The housekeeper chose his wife when selecting a wet nurse, but she never thought that this was the beginning of her lifelong nightmare.

The vicious woman worked as a wet nurse for three months, and then one day she broke a vase. According to family rules, both of them were kicked out.

Now it seems that it was premeditated.

Her husband Shen Hongxiu had been studying away from home and did not see the birth of the child, so naturally he did not know that the child had been replaced.

Although this is the eldest son and grandson, it is impossible for the old man to visit the child every day.

There were too many rules back then.

It also allowed her to conceal the matter smoothly.
