Chapter 43: There is a hidden story behind dropping out of school two years ago

"Who knows? It's a pity to waste such a good seedling!"

The other teachers didn't want to mention it anymore. Although they sympathized with Lu Chen, they were powerless to do anything. The most they could do was sigh a few words behind his back.

No one noticed Tang Zhihua at the door, his face frighteningly gloomy. He didn't expect that something that happened so long ago would be brought up by someone. What's even worse is that they actually threw dirty water on him, accusing him of having an affair with Bai Haitang before their marriage.

Although he had liked Bai Haitang for a long time, he definitely did not cross the line. He was a person of status and position, and it was impossible for him to do something that would humiliate his status. These people were talking nonsense! Who knew which bastard spread the rumor?

Tang Zhihua had a gloomy face. He didn't even go to the toilet and turned around and left. He wanted to go home and ask Bai Haitang what happened when he went to Lu's house that day.

Tang Zhihua vaguely felt that these rumors might be related to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen definitely holds a grudge against what happened two years ago. People like him are narrow-minded and would do something like throwing dirty water on their own mother.

The Tang family and the Lu family were actually not far from each other, separated by only one street. The Tang family was a two-story building with elegant interior decoration, many calligraphy and paintings hung on the walls, and several pots of orchids in the yard, revealing the owner's taste everywhere.

Tang Zhihua came back home on a scooter with a very unhappy look on his face. Bai Haitang was picking vegetables in the yard. When she saw him, she smiled gently. Her beautiful smile made Tang Zhihua calm down a lot.

"How's Xuehai?"

Tang Zhihua parked the car and asked about his son with concern.

"Much better. I'll make him some chicken soup tonight to nourish him."

Bai Haitang stepped forward to get the briefcase and took out the slippers from the entrance, bending down and placing them in front of him, just like a Japanese woman, serving him very well. Tang Zhihua's anger was completely gone. He liked Bai Haitang's gentleness, thoughtfulness and understanding, but of course what he liked more was her beautiful appearance.

He fell in love with Bai Haitang when he saw her for the first time. At that time, he had a wife and Bai Haitang also had a husband. Fortunately, things always go smoothly. His wife died of illness and Bai Haitang's husband also disappeared, so they naturally got together.

Tang Xuehai was reading a book in his room with a bandage wrapped around his head, looking like a seriously ill patient. Tang Zhihua knocked on the door and came in. Seeing that he was reading seriously, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Don't watch for too long, come out and take a rest."

Although Tang Zhihua does not have much affection for his deceased wife, he is still satisfied with his son. His son studies hard and has good grades. Although the university he is attending now is not a famous one, he has a good future as a normal university.

After graduation, he will return to Fucheng. With his connections and relationships, he will definitely be arranged into No. 1 Middle School. Then he can be promoted to the Education Bureau and marry the daughter of a leader. His career will definitely be smooth sailing.

Tang Zhihua had no interest in working in Shanghai. Big cities just sounded good; it was not as comfortable as a small county town. Besides, his roots were in Fucheng. If his son returned to his hometown, his connections would be helpful to his son's career. If he went to Shanghai, he would be unable to help.

Tang Xuehai obediently put down the book and went out with Tang Zhihua. Bai Haitang was still washing vegetables in the yard. When she saw them, she smiled and said, "We'll be eating soon."

"Well, Aunt Bai, you've worked hard."

Tang Xuehai spoke sweetly but his eyes were calm. Bai Haitang, on the other hand, smiled as if she had eaten honey. She thought her stepson was caring and sensible.

After Tang Xuehai went out for a walk, Tang Zhihua asked Bai Haitang about what happened that day.

"You went to Lu Chen, what did he say?"

Bai Haitang's face turned pale. Thinking of the nonsense Jiang Hanyan said that day, she felt very aggrieved. Tears welled up in her eyes and she stammered, "I... I didn't say anything."

"Don't hide it for him. Didn't Lu Chen say that you and I have been together for a long time? And that Xue Hai was your son?"

Tang Zhihua understood as soon as he saw his wife's expression, and gritted his teeth. Lu Chen was too narrow-minded. Even if he hated him, he shouldn't have thrown dirty water on his own mother, right?

Bai Haitang's face was pale, her lips trembled, tears flowed down, and she said nervously: "It was Jiang Hanyan who said that. She said such rude things. I can't communicate with her at all. Old Tang, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

"Lu Chen's wife?"

Tang Zhihua frowned. He had met Jiang Hanyan once or twice. She was pretty, but she was frivolous and not a quiet woman. His son used to be very close to this woman, so it was a good thing for Lu Chen to marry her.

"It's her. She's so unreasonable. I don't know what Xiaochen said to her. Old Tang, how about I ask Xiaochen to come over and apologize to Xuehai tomorrow?" Bai Haitang asked cautiously.

She thought Tang Zhihua was still angry, so she wanted Lu Chen to apologize, and her husband's anger would subside.

This is what she did before. Lu Chen refused to agree at first, but as long as she knelt on the ground and begged for a while, he agreed.

It's okay for her to suffer a little injustice. She just wants her family to be harmonious and doesn't want it to be destroyed by anyone.

"Forget it, don't look for him."

Tang Zhihua didn't want to see Lu Chen. Every time he saw this kid, he always felt uncomfortable and would think of what happened two years ago.

Bai Haitang breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to go looking for her son. It would be hard for her because she would have to talk so much and be humble all the time.

Tang Zhihua was too lazy to pay attention to the rumors outside. They would disappear over time. Besides, the idea of ​​an illegitimate child was simply impossible. Xue Hai and Lu Chen were only two months apart. How could Bai Haitang give birth to two sons in the same year?

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Just as he expected, these rumors soon died down and were replaced by other new gossips.

During this period, Lu Chen went home every night. To outsiders, the couple had a very good relationship and were reluctant to be apart for even a day. Jiang Hanyan's complexion also became better and better. She told three fortunes every day, and her reputation completely overshadowed Meng Banxian.

The ten days passed quickly. Jiang's mother came to the door early in the morning to ask for money, but Jiang Hanyan sent her away and asked her to come back in the evening.

"Is the money going to be okay?" Jiang's mother was worried and felt something was wrong.

"How would I know? My money is in that person's hands. Why are you in such a hurry? Lu Chen won't be back until the evening."

Jiang Hanyan rolled her eyes and didn't give her a good face. She had no money to come at night anyway.

Jiang's mother had no choice but to go home first, but she felt more and more uneasy. As soon as it got dark, Jiang's father came with her on a motorcycle. Jiang Hanyan and the others were still having dinner. Today's dishes were very rich, with Wang Ji's braised beef, braised pig ears, and a large bowl of milky white fish head and tofu soup.

Because Song's first course of treatment was over, his vitals, which were like an old car, had undergone miraculous changes. The entire Song family bowed down to Jiang Hanyan and revered her like a god. In order to show their sincerity, Song's mother came to express her gratitude and gave Jiang Hanyan a thick red envelope.

There are five hundred dollars in it.

When you have money, you naturally want to eat delicious food. Jiang Hanyan prepared a large table of delicious food, but she didn't drink any alcohol because she was afraid of getting drunk again at night.

Doudou opened the door, and Jiang's mother rushed into the room impatiently, "Hanyan, did you get the money back?"

Jiang's father followed behind her with a sullen face, glaring fiercely at Jiang Hanyan who was sitting still. His paternal authority had been challenged like never before. The rebellious girl refused to admit her mistakes and even refused to return home. She was still cheating people outside using his name, just like she was possessed by a ghost.

If he hadn't been concerned about Lu Chen, Jiang's father would have rushed up to teach the rebellious daughter a lesson. He looked around gloomily, and there were no extra stools in the living room, so he had to stand, and he became even more angry.
