Chapter 535: Zhongshutang

Upon hearing this, Yu Huan smiled and said, "Your aunt is not in good health and is recuperating in the county town. When she gets better, she will come to see you."

Zhong Shutang nodded: "Grandpa and grandma are not in good health, and my aunt coughs every night, but she doesn't let us tell us."

"I hope my aunt gets better soon."

Yu Huan thought this boy was very sweet-mouthed and good at talking.

He nodded: "I will."

Yu Huan brought the Fuqiang flour to the kitchen, preparing to cook some dough balls for his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and also make some pancakes for the Zhong family.

Zhong Shutang smelled the fragrance and swallowed hard.

He whispered, "Uncle, you don't have to cook so much. We can eat sweet potatoes and corn, and leave the flour for grandpa and grandma."

Seeing that his uncle was going to make pancakes with all the flour, Zhong Shutang felt a sudden pain in his heart and his face wrinkled.

That much rice flour is enough for grandpa and grandma to eat for a while.

Seeing this, Yu Huan sighed and said, "Grandpa and grandma want to eat something good, and you guys should eat too. Don't worry, my uncle-in-law has bought some rice and will deliver it later."

"But we can't always rely on my uncle to make a living. We should save as much food as we can so that grandpa and grandma can eat when the time comes." Zhong Shutang muttered, "We kids don't need to eat so well."

After hearing this, Yu Huan no longer knew how to describe what he was thinking.

Not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Yu family returned to their ancestral homeland, and few people came out.

They are self-sufficient in their tribe, and even in years of famine, no child in the tribe will go hungry.

He whispered, "It's okay. I won't let grandpa and grandma go hungry."

After more than half an hour of acupuncture and medication, Zhong Xiasheng woke up. He sniffed the fragrance coming from next door and frowned slightly: the smell of pancakes.

They only had some corn kernels and sweet potatoes left in their house, and they couldn't find any extra food.

Why does it smell like pancakes?

He found that his wife was breathing evenly and sleeping soundly. He finally let go of his worries and said to himself: She is worthy of being Yu Huan.

He got up carefully and went outside the room, just in time to see Yu Huan coming in with a bowl of noodles.

The two looked at each other, and Yu Huan smiled and said, "Dad, you're awake, come and eat noodles quickly."

Zhong Xiasheng sat on a small wooden bench in his room. No matter how hungry he was, he did not look at the bowl of noodles. Instead, he looked at Yu Huan and asked about Gao Ruoyun.

Yu Huan did not hide anything from him and told him everything.

"We went to see Mr. Huo before we came here. We wanted to see if he knew anything about the Zhong family. We didn't expect that the Huo family and the Zhong family had a private relationship." Speaking of this, Yu Huan was helpless: "I know this matter is very sudden, but Ruoyun is worried, so I can only bring him to the Northeast."

Zhong Xiasheng was stunned for a long time, then he gave a bitter smile and said, "So, I raised my enemy's daughter, but my own daughter suffered."

After he finished speaking, he just felt it was ridiculous and ironic: "Everyone says I'm a wise man, but now it seems that I'm just a fool."

After hearing what Zhong Xiasheng said, Yu Huan became numb.

It's a good thing that everyone in the Zhong family took the responsibility on themselves, which proves that they are not fools.

"Dad, eat first. You have to take care of your body and live well with your family."

Zhong Xiasheng's eyes turned red when he heard this: "I want to, too, but there are too many people who don't want me to live."

After coming here, he finally understood the fickleness of human nature.

He also understood that resistance and explanation were useless. He had seen the filthiest human nature here.

Yu Huan said: "Mr. Huo asked me to tell you to live well. He will wait for you to return to Beijing."

"There are still people who are working hard for you. Don't give up."

Then, Yu Huan told the story of Mr. Kang: "Now Mr. Kang has retired and returned to Beijing to live out his old age. Although his children have not returned to Beijing yet, they can live like ordinary people."

“You have to believe that light will always penetrate the darkness, it’s just a matter of time.”

Zhong Xiasheng thought of Mr. Huo and Mr. Kang, sighed, and nodded: "I understand."

After saying this, he began to eat the noodles seriously.

Obviously, his son-in-law is a good cook and the noodles he cooked are very delicious, but now he feels like the noodles are tasteless.

Zhong Xiasheng said: "I heard of Gao Ruoyun's name when I was in Beijing. My wife also mentioned it several times, saying that this daughter of the Gao family is really amazing, but I just didn't have the chance to meet her."

"It's really amazing. The child grew up in Beijing and we also lived in Beijing, but we never met him once."

He looked at Yu Huan: "Does she look like me or my wife?"

I no longer want to ask my own daughter about her past experiences. Even if I close my eyes and think about it, I can tell that her life has not been easy.

Yu Huan thought for a moment and said slowly, "She looks like you and your mother-in-law. I should say that she picked out the best parts of you. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to connect you as father and daughter, or mother and daughter at the first sight."

Zhong Xiasheng laughed when he heard this: "She is exquisite and capable."

At this moment, he did not feel proud at all, only heartache and discomfort.

How much suffering must one endure to grow up so beautiful?

Yu Huan said: "Yes, she is really amazing."

He looked at Zhong Xiasheng: "If you meet her, you will definitely like her."

"I don't need to see her. As long as I think of her as my daughter, I will be happy." Zhong Xiasheng: "She is my daughter who came in her old age. She should be brought up with love and care."

The two of them were talking here, but they didn't notice that the person on the bed had already woken up and was hearing all their conversation.

Xie Yuelian curled up on the bed, gritting her teeth and crying silently.

Her biological daughter.

Her child.

She never dreamed that such a ridiculous thing would happen.

Yu Huan stood up and said, "There is a bowl of noodles in the kitchen. When my mother-in-law wakes up, please bring it to her. I left some medicine for you. The precautions are also written clearly. You can take it as you like."

"I need to go back to the commune and bring you the things I bought."

By the way, solve their current predicament.

Yu Huan left the mountain again. He always managed to avoid the people searching the mountain, find his bicycle and return to the commune.

When the Zhong family came back from work, they found that Zhong Xiasheng and Xie Yuelian had both woken up, and both of them looked much better than when they left.

The whole Zhong family felt very happy.

Mrs. Zhong looked at the pancakes on the bamboo basket, her eyes filled with heartache and emotion.

I feel bad for using so much enriching powder.

I was moved by Yu Huan’s actions.

Zhong Xiasheng said, "Eat up the pancakes made by your brother-in-law."

"Only when you are full can you think of ways to protect yourself."

The people of the Zhong family fell silent upon hearing this. They didn't know what was waiting for them.
