Chapter 13



Han Zecheng's expression became even colder.

His monthly allowance is over 130 yuan, so it's actually no big deal to send 40 yuan to his mother every month.

But he would not let her think she could have her way with him.

He was not the type to drag his feet, and he frowned, thinking about the simplest words he could use to make his mother stop pestering him.

But before he could say anything, Su Ruo, who had been silent before, spoke first.

She said, "Mom, isn't it because Guoguo and I live at home that I have to pay for food? Although I don't know how Guoguo and I spend ten dollars on the thin porridge and coarse flour buns we eat every day."

Wu Guizhi's face changed drastically.

But Su Ruo hadn't finished yet.

She looked at Wu Guizhi and smiled, "Mom, you just said that there are so many people in the family who need clothes and food, and so many children who need to go to school... This is strange. In addition to you and Uncle Zecheng, he will give you a pension. Does it mean that the clothes and food for the rest of the family, and the education of the children also need Zecheng's management?"

"But don't the eldest brother and the third brother all have their own families? Don't the eldest brother, the eldest sister-in-law, the third brother and the third brother's wife all have to work every day and get work points? I see that they all earn money to support their families, and the work points they earn can also support the children, right? How come you say it as if all the children in this family are not supported by their own parents, but are waiting for Zecheng to send money to support them?"

"But you know, Mom, I won't work anymore, and Guoguo and I will all rely on Zecheng for support. Maybe we'll have more children in the future, and they'll also need Zecheng to support us. If you ask Zecheng to send all the money to you so that he can support your other sons and grandchildren, what are we going to do in the future?"

"Besides, if life here is unbearable, it's fine, but I think no one in this village lives better than our family, right? And my third brother, he works as a janitor at school, and he also gets paid. I used to pay him ten yuan a month, but now that I'm gone, the money is gone, so I'll just let my third brother pay it. Don't tell me, mom, you only know how to take money from Zecheng, and then other people not only don't have to support you in your old age, but also have to use the money Zecheng gives you to support them?"

As soon as she woke up, she said that she had sucked Han Zecheng's blood.

Who is sucking whose blood?

She had no idea what was going on yesterday, and I didn’t refute her when she scolded me...well, that wasn’t called a refutation before.

Now that they were all leaving, they had to make things clear... As for the fact that she was Han Zecheng's mother, he might have some opinions about her because of what she said, so let him have them, she wouldn't hold them in anyway.

Han Zecheng is a man of few words.

Wu Guizhi had been making a scene for decades, and she had come to believe a lot of things after doing so for so long. She had never been exposed like this before in her entire life.

She was so angry that she was shaking all over. She picked up the bowl on the table and threw it at Su Ruo, cursing, "This is outrageous, this is outrageous. Who the hell do you think you are? You bourgeois son of a bitch. You shouldn't even be allowed into my house. You're only fit to be drenched..."

With a "clang", the bowl fell to the ground and shattered, interrupting Wu Guizhi's dirty talk.

Naturally, the bowl did not hit Su Ruo.

Instead, Han Zecheng waved his hand to block it, and it only fell to the ground.

Wu Guizhi sat down on the stool and howled, "This is really a sin. How could our Han family marry such a daughter-in-law..."

Han Zecheng's face turned pale.

He really hated this scene... It was common when he was a child. Ever since he knew his biological father was still alive, she would be like this whenever he didn't do what she wanted.

In the past he would just leave.

This time he not only planned to leave, but also wanted to make things clear before leaving.

He interrupted her and said coldly: "Mom, I will definitely take Aruo and Guoguo away today. If you don't take the household registration book, I can go to the commune and do it myself. But I will no longer take care of family affairs in the future. You can handle it yourself."

"I'll get it,"

At this time, Han Heping, who had been standing next to him without saying anything, finally spoke. He apologized to Han Zecheng with a sad face, "Zecheng, you know your mother can't bear to part with you and Guozi. She feels bad. Don't bother with her."

She wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "You know, after you leave, it will be difficult for her to see you or Guozi again."

After saying that, he reached out to pull Wu Guizhi, glaring at her, and exerting force on his hands, saying, "Guizhi, you don't want to leave the child in this way. It's not a good idea for Zecheng and his wife to stay apart for a long time. Now that the second son's family can go with the army, it's a good thing. Stop making trouble and come with me to the room to give the household registration book to Zecheng."

He coaxed and persuaded Wu Guizhi to go back to the room.

The other members of the Han family were still in the main room.

Everyone was either embarrassed or unhappy because of Su Ruo's careless words just now.

The one who was embarrassed was the eldest wife.

The one who was dissatisfied and unhappy was the third room.

Because of Su Ruo's words, not only Wu Guizhi was scolded, but also all of them.

But no matter how embarrassed or unhappy they were, they couldn't say anything to refute it, because what Su Ruo said was the truth.

The Han family can live in the only blue brick and tile house in Hanjia Village. Han Jialin and Wu Jiaoyan take leave for five or six days out of ten working days, or they only choose to do light work, but no one in the Han family will go hungry and they can eat meat every day, all because of Han Zecheng's subsidy.

Of course, if Han Zecheng was not here now, Han Jialin and Wu Jiaoyan would definitely still be able to say a few annoyed words, such as "Second sister-in-law, you are not right. Second brother gives money to mother to show filial piety. Our family has not been divided. Every son has to give the money he earns to his parents." But now Han Zecheng is standing here, and they want to continue to take advantage of him. No matter how thick-skinned they are, they dare not say anything.

The eldest brother, Han Jiasong, sighed, said hello to Han Zecheng, and said, "Second brother, I'm going to work first. If there's anything I can help you with, just let me know."

The Han family loosened their grip, and the people of the Han family went to work, went to school, or washed dishes, and soon they all dispersed.

******

"How's your hand?"

After returning to the room, Su Ruo looked at Han Zecheng's hand and said guiltily, "Let me see."

As she said that, she reached out to take his hand.

It was just a bowl, so of course his hands were fine, but he didn't reject her either.

Her hands were slender, white and small, and she needed both hands to hold his hands.

He had been training outside for many years, so his skin was dark and rough, with some old scars on it, but the one just now did not turn red at all.

Su Ruo didn't care about much. She took his hand and looked at it carefully. She was relieved only after confirming that he was not hurt.

Then there was a big temperature difference between the two hands, his was hot and hers was cold.

The color and texture are quite different, one is dark and rough, the other is fair and soft.

Su Ruo only realized the difference belatedly after she confirmed that he was fine. Her face became hot, and she quickly let go of his hand. Then, she tried to hide her abnormality and apologized, "I'm sorry, I just said too much."

After all, she was his mother, and she, as an outsider, shouldn't have said too much. But she had been used to arguing with Lin Wanhua and Su Jia since she was a child, and she was not someone who would swallow her anger. She got so angry that she couldn't help but blurt out the words.

He also cursed everyone else in the Han family.

She certainly wasn't afraid of offending them.

But she also vaguely guessed that she did not owe Wu Guizhi, but she should owed the person in front of her.

Then the matter of paying was also the responsibility of the person in front of her. He said it was no problem, but she said she was asking too much.

It also seems stingy and dishonest.

She doesn't care about this... Her family has said that she is stingy and dishonest since she was a child, but why should she be kind to Lin Wanhua and Su Jia?

But now I feel a little short of breath facing him.

He looked at her carefully, then said something completely unrelated, "Could we have another child?"

The voice was light, as if it was mentioned casually, but it also seemed very focused, and because of the focus it seemed particularly serious.

Su Ru was stunned, and then she remembered that it was what she had just said to his mother.

"that......"

She wanted to explain that she had just said it casually, but for some reason she hesitated when the words came to her lips and glanced at him secretly again.

Although she had never been in a relationship, she had been engaged before, and Yuan Chengyang treated her well and held her in his hands. She certainly knew the difference between the kindness of an ordinary friend or relative and that of a man who treats someone well just because he likes her.

Since she woke up, although this man looked cold, he was considerate and caring towards her in every way.

And the way he looked at her, even if he pretended to be indifferent, she could see the concentration and tenderness in his eyes.

She realized that he was nice to her not just because she was the mother of his son, but because of responsibility.

He should like her.

It made her feel as though she shouldn't have said the denial.

But she didn't dare to speak carelessly.

I’m afraid of making promises that I may not be able to fulfill in the future.

never mind.

She lowered her head and didn't want to talk anymore.

He saw her lowering her head and her ears slowly turning red, and his heart softened. He stopped forcing her to say anything, but returned to the previous topic and said, "It's nothing. I'm glad you said that."

He actually didn't have any feelings for his mother.

He lived with his grandmother until he was three years old.

When he was three years old, his grandmother passed away and he moved in with his mother. His mother was never very nice to him, but she just gave him two more bowls of porridge every day at their house.

As for when his biological father was still around and wanted to take him away, he refused to go not because he had much feelings for his mother, but because he just didn't want to call another person mom, and didn't want his life to be controlled by others.

And he later always believed that he had made a very wise decision.

He paused for a moment after saying that, and then continued, "Pack your things at home first. I'll go get your household registration book and go to the commune to transfer your household registration. I'll also go to the school to deal with your and Jialin's affairs. In the afternoon, we'll go to the homes of some cousins ​​to say goodbye."

Su Ruo nodded and agreed.

But thinking that he was leaving soon, it was fine to move his household registration, but he should also go to the school in person. Even if he didn't know anyone, he could just fool around with him. He had a rough idea in his mind, so he said, "Can I go with you to the school?"

Han Zecheng looked at her and said, "Are you feeling well? Also, you don't remember anything now. How will you greet people you meet? I may not even know some of the teachers in the school, let alone the students."

"I think I'm fine now. I just need to go to school. As for the strangers..."

Su Ruo frowned, and then thought of a solution, "I won't say anything. Am I not sick? It's okay if my throat hurts and I can't make a sound, right?"

Han Zecheng: ...

"All right."

He said.

Since you are leaving, it would be better to say goodbye in person.
