He really had a deep love with Mei Xiangcao, and he abandoned them, an orphan and a widow, for so many years. Even though he still couldn't remember their past love, he felt very uncomfortable just listening to these people talk about it. Why did God play such a trick on them?
"Well, this is a long story."
Suddenly, an old lady yelled, "I see you're wearing a lot of clothes. You haven't come back in all these years. Have you changed your mind? Have you gone out and married another woman?"
"How could Dahe be that kind of person? We all watched him and Vanilla live together for those few years. He would never betray Vanilla."
"But if he's still alive, why hasn't he come back in all these years? And now he's dressed so well, couldn't he have hooked up with someone more capable?"
"I, am not."
He lowered his head and spoke in a voice as thin as a mosquito, probably only he could hear it, because it could not completely deny what others said. Although he did not marry a wealthy woman, he did marry another woman.
"Since you've already chosen someone else, why did you come back? Are you thinking about your children growing up? Do you want to claim them?
Bah, you've become such a traitor, the kids won't recognize you. You'd better get out of here now and don't stay in our village."
"Yes, so you really came here to recognize the children. You didn't raise them when they were young. Vanilla worked so hard to raise them, and you want to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. I didn't know you were such a person."
"It's useless for him to come. He's not at home. Even if he were at home, we should all say that he is a heartless man and ask Xiangcao'er and the child not to recognize him."
Jiang Dongcheng listened to the villagers' anger, and it was obvious that they had all witnessed the time she spent with Mei Xiangcao.
"Don't misunderstand me, I'm not what you say."
The captain waved his hand at the angry women, "Stop arguing! Dahe didn't mean to stay away. You forgot that when he first came to our village, he had no memory. Later, he regained his memory, but he forgot the years he lived here."
He had already seen Xiangcao and her three children in Beijing. Xiangcao and the children didn't recognize him, so he came to ask about their past.
"Ah? I see."
The villagers suddenly realized, "So he didn't mean to be unfaithful. I was wondering, if he was alive and well, would he really not care about the lives of Xiangcao and her daughter?"
The ox cart returned to Qingping Bay. Before entering the village, Jiangdong City saw the endless mountains.
It was just like in his dream, except that there were no blooming flowers on the mountain or at the foot of the mountain, nor was there that graceful girl.
The captain pulled him to the door of the Jiang family and said, "This is where you used to live."
The gate of the yard was open. Jiang Dongcheng got out of the car and saw a row of imposing brick houses inside through the gate. Suddenly, something came to his mind.
This place, he once lived here.
He stumbled into the room and saw a man standing in the vegetable garden in the yard. He didn't know this person. Just as he was about to ask who the other person was, Mei Dongliang walked towards him.
"Jiang Ye, oh, are you Jiang Ye?"
He hadn't seen Jiang Ye for less than a year, but how come Jiang Ye seemed to have aged by ten years?
Just when Mei Dongliang was thinking of another possibility, Jiang Dongcheng spoke: "I am not Jiang Ye, I am Jiang Dong... I am Jiang Dahe."
