"No," He Zheng felt that he was also confused by this outrageous thing: "What I mean is that even if Su Erhe is not the daughter of the Su family, our marriage has been confirmed and cannot be changed. Su Erhe, will you still marry me?"
"Silly boy,"
Su Erhe was about to speak when Du's mother interrupted her, "Things are different now. Su Erhe is the daughter of the Nie family. Her father is the commander of the provincial military region. She is a real rich lady. Do you think you are worthy of her?"
He Zheng was stunned. He was in a panic now, just as he was in a good mood when he came to the Su family.
Originally, Su Erhe had been raised in the city for eighteen years, and He Zheng felt that a rough man like him was not suitable for her. Now the city girl has regained her true identity and become the commander's daughter.
What about him?
He Zheng pursed his lips and stared at Su Erhe.
Su Erhe smiled for the first time since returning home, "He Zheng, if you are willing to marry me, I will marry you."
"I do!" He Zheng said loudly. Looking at Su Erhe's bright smile, he was willing to believe her.
"Okay, then our marriage will remain unchanged. I'll go to your house and discuss with your uncle and aunt about where to get married and how to arrange the wedding." Now, Su Erhe also has her plans. "Wait for me, I'll talk to them for a few more words."
He Zheng nodded.
Su Erhe turned around and walked back into the house.
He looked at Du's mother, Su's mother and Chen Yuqin in turn with a calm look.
Compared to her calmness, the three of them had different looks. Su Erhe didn't want to delve into the complicated guilt or other things.
"Thank you all for your care. Now that I'm an adult, it doesn't seem to matter to me whether I have a mother or not. The past..."
The original owner is already dead.
What right does she have to forgive anything on behalf of the original owner?
The only thing we can do is probably to live a good life in the future.
She pursed her lips calmly and said, "If you want to set things right or solve the problem, just discuss it among the three of you. Don't include me. I don't want to discuss the topic of resentment or hatred. I only know that if I had a child, I would never dislike her and give her to someone else just because she is a girl. A son will not dislike his mother's ugliness, and a mother certainly will not dislike her own child."
She smiled.
Looking at Du's mother, "Aunt Du, thank you for raising me for eighteen years. But ever since Du Ruoyun and I were swapped, you've humiliated me many times and even plotted to harm me. So... I think there should be no more grudges between us. If you're angry, don't come to me. It's not that I want to crawl into your house and become your daughter."
Next came Su's mother, "Aunt Su, I haven't been in the Su family for long, and your family has been very kind to me. Thank you for your care."
Finally, it was Chen Yuqin.
Su Erhe's smile deepened. "I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'm just a girl, not the boy you want."
The corners of Chen Yuqin's mouth were trembling, her face was even paler, her legs were shaking, and she couldn't stand steadily at all.
"Now that the truth is revealed, there's no need for anyone to have any more doubts or concerns. You can discuss the follow-up matters. Don't include me. This is my own life... I have the final say!"
Su Erhe shrugged easily, "Okay, I've finished what I want to say."
He turned around swiftly, but it was impossible to say that he didn't feel uncomfortable.
But it's okay.
She had already thought about the subsequent arrangements as early as when she suspected the truth.
Meeting He Zheng's surprised look, she tilted her head.
"You're not leaving?"
"Suerhe," If He Zheng didn't understand before, he understood everything now. The Nie family replaced her because she was not a boy. Looking at Suerhe's smiling face, He Zheng felt distressed. How could parents be like this? Isn't the child a treasure?
Just because the baby was a girl, the person was replaced?
With a surge of evil fire in his chest, He Zheng glanced into the house and stood directly in front of Su Erhe. "I will take you home, Su Erhe. From now on, wherever I am, that will be your home."
Su Erhe could have endured it.
What’s the big deal? It’s just that I don’t have a home.
But He Zheng's words easily touched her heart, which felt sour and bitter.
"He Zheng."
"No need to say anything, let's go."
Su Erhe was taken directly back to the He family by He Zheng.
Walking all the way to He's house, Su Erhe looked up several times. Who said He Zheng was childish? Who said he was rough?
He is so reliable at critical moments.
At the He family, Wang Xiu was preparing lunch. Just as the food was placed on the table, she saw He Zheng bringing Su Erhe back.
She was anxious, thinking that He Zheng would not come home for dinner and did not cook any decent dishes.
"Erhe, please sit down first. I'll go make you some fried eggs."
"Aunt, no need." Su Erhe didn't want to be treated specially. Besides, she had something to say to Village Chief He and Aunt Wang Xiu. "Please sit down first. I have something to tell you."
Su Erhe had no intention of hiding her life experience and relationship with the Nie family from the village chief He and his wife. Since they were going to be a family in the future, they should be honest about this. After she told the story, the village chief He and Wang Xiu were also shocked. They originally thought that it was as simple as the Du and Su families having adopted the wrong daughter.
Unexpectedly...
"Your mother went too far. How could she switch you just because you weren't a boy? So, what are your plans for the future?"
"Mom, what kind of question are you asking?" He Zheng said dissatisfiedly, "Su Erhe will live in our house from now on. I will live in my brother's house and give her my room. Anyway, we will be getting married in less than two months, and then we can live together legally."
"I think you want to get married tomorrow!" Wang Xiu said unhappily. Did she think she couldn't see what this silly boy was thinking?
I raised this little bastard by myself, and I know what kind of shit he is going to do just by looking at his butt.
"It's not impossible." As expected, He Zheng raised the corners of his mouth proudly.
Wang Xiu: “…”
"Old He, take care of your son!"
Village Chief He was completely bewildered. Normally, he wanted to take care of his son, but it wasn't Wang Xiu who stopped him, and she even complained that he was controlling too much. Why was he...
When you encounter something you can't handle, you push him out to be a scapegoat?
Village Chief He has a difficult time.
Holding the bowl, he said, "What we both mean is that as long as you two live happily, as for Erhe's matter, you can figure it out yourself. We will not influence your opinion."
"Thank you, Uncle He." Su Erhe felt very lucky to have met such an open-minded parent. "But I have different ideas about where I should stay. After all, He Zheng and I haven't had our wedding yet, so it's not appropriate for me to live in your house. I remember there's a vacant silkworm room in our village. Can I stay there for two months?"
Two months later, she and He Zheng will get married and will be able to live in the He family.
Then a year later, when the market is liberalized, the first thing she will do is buy herself an apartment.
Own a home of your own.
No more being chased around!
