Chapter 255: One
Erhe didn't say a word.
He Zheng snorted, "I think he can't bring himself to go back to the countryside, and he has nowhere to stay in the city, so he can only think of this way and sell himself."
Although this may sound unpleasant, it is true.
Wang Xiu pushed her son, thinking that Su's mother was there after all, so she didn't have to worry about hurting her feelings by what she said.
Mother Su sighed, "That's right. The child's father and I have tried to persuade him, but it's no use. He's determined."
At this point, Erhe spoke frankly, "He has made up his mind. It's no use trying to persuade him. Although you are doing this for his own good, he may be thinking that you are reluctant to see him succeed. He has to make his own way. Since he has chosen this path, let him go. You should treat him as your son and give him a betrothal gift to show that you are not treating him unfairly. As for the rest, let him do as he pleases."
Wang Xiu also said after hearing this: "I think Erhe is right about this. Everyone has their own aspirations. He doesn't want to return to his hometown. Even if he returns physically, his heart can't return. Isn't it that the family is well-off and wants him to live a good life there? In my opinion, as long as he lives a good life in the future and doesn't have any bad thoughts, it's not impossible. Your family doesn't need a son like him."
Su's mother actually understood in her heart that she needed someone to persuade her at this moment.
Looking at the He family now, he knew that this matter could not be changed, so he went back without saying anything about eating, with his hands behind his back.
There are four men in the family.
Su's father, Su Dongtian and Su Xiatian stood aside, while Su Chuan stood in the yard.
After all, he didn't grow up in this family, and there's no sense of family affection between us as strangers. He seemed out of place standing in the yard.
Mother Su came back, glanced at Su Chuan, and said nothing else, "Since you are back, have dinner. I have cooked it."
The family went into the house, and Su Chuan was the last one to go in.
The dishes on the table were quite good. Because Su Chuan was there, no one ate much. After the meal, Su's mother called Su's father into the room. The two stayed in the room for a few minutes. After coming out, they sent their eldest son and youngest son away. Then Su's mother took out three hundred yuan and put it on the table.
"We've discussed this. Since you don't want to go back to the countryside, we can't force you. Our family conditions are like this. I'm saving these three hundred yuan for you to marry a wife. Regardless of whether you can use it or not, you can keep the money. You can buy clothes for your new wife or do whatever you want. We didn't raise you, and we won't rely on you in the future. Just manage your life well and live your life."
Su's mother finished speaking in one breath, but she still felt a little regretful.
After all, this is her son.
But this son...
It is obvious that they cannot be kept because their family conditions are poor and people look down on them.
Don't look away, Su's mother doesn't want to say anything.
Father Su held a cigarette in his hand, puffing away at it, his expression looking rather grim.
Su Chuan hesitated for a moment, then accepted the money and said, "Well, I'll leave first."
After saying that, the man stood up and walked straight out the door and left.
The brothers Su Dongtian and Su Xiatian were both standing outside. When they saw him come out, they stopped talking and just looked at him.
Su Chuan looked at the two of them. He was really unfamiliar with this brother and sister, and there was nothing much to say, so he turned a corner and left.
…
Everyone in the village saw Su Chuan coming back, but the Su and He families didn't tell anyone what he was doing there, so they didn't know.
Erhe and the others had no time to care about Suchuan's affairs.
Instead, He Zheng said, "Well, Chen Yuqin raised this son in vain!"
That's not the case. He became someone else's son. Not only that, he left Chen Yuqin freezing in the cold weather in the Great Northern Wilderness without even going to accompany her or visit her.
Erhe had no time to care about these things because they were leaving for the capital the next day.
The thing I have been thinking about for so long is finally put on the agenda.
The night before, He Zheng was urged to go to bed early because he was responsible for driving. It was such a long journey, so he had to stay alert.
Erhe has to feed her baby at night, so it is naturally impossible for her to sleep through the night.
Wang Xiu, on the other hand, didn't sleep well all night, thinking about separating from Village Chief He. She usually didn't think Village Chief He was that nice, but this time he was so clingy with her and gave her so many instructions, but she still felt it wasn't enough.
Waiting for the day of departure.
Erhe got up early, packed up the two treasures, and asked He Zheng to take the luggage to the car. In fact, there were not many things in it, and she threw the valuables into the space.
"Dad, we're going to the capital now. You take care of yourself at home." He Zheng looked at his father, feeling a little uncomfortable. After a pause, he blurted out, "Why don't you go to the capital with us?"
"Why would I go? There are so many things going on in the village. You guys take care of yourself. Once you get there, you'll be the backbone of the family. Take good care of your wife and children, and your mother. I'm leaving everyone in your care. He Zheng, you have to complete my mission! Take good care of everyone in the family!"
"yes!"
It was rare for He Zheng to speak to his father so seriously. He patted his chest to reassure Village Chief He.
Village chief He also shook his youngest son's shoulders firmly, saying that his son had grown up and it was time for him to take on responsibilities.
As a father, he is getting old now and it is impossible for him to protect his children all his life.
Erhe stood by and waited until the father and son finished talking. Then she hugged Zhuozhuo and said, "Dad, take care of yourself. Call us if you have any problems."
"Well, you should take care of yourself too. Don't work too hard." Village Chief He gave a few instructions and hugged his two grandsons. Then, he thought of something and took out two red brocade bags from his pocket and stuffed them into the pockets of the twins' clothes. "There's peach wood inside. Keep it for self-defense."
"Thank you, Dad."
Erhe helped the child tidy up his clothes and put the brocade bag away properly.
Then she gave He Zheng a look, and He Zheng took the second child from Wang Xiu and let his parents talk.
Wang Xiu looked at Village Chief He and said, "I'll go take care of the children. You stay home... take good care of yourself."
We are an old couple and can’t say anything more sentimental.
Village Chief He was not good at expressing his feelings. "I know. Please take care of yourself when you are outside."
Two people over fifty years old, although they were about to say goodbye, were too embarrassed to hug each other or even hold hands, so they just looked at each other.
He Zheng was getting anxious watching from the side. These two old comrades, if they couldn't just talk to each other, they should at least hug each other.
