Xu Ziyi was mainly upset because she felt that the whole world owed her, otherwise she would not have gone to death to punish Xu Zishan. Obviously Xu Zishan was also a victim.
Xu Zishan looked at Xu Yingjie and Shen Yaqin's embarrassment and discomfort, and immediately said: "It's okay, don't worry about work, I just came back, I will go to my hometown to visit my grandparents tomorrow!"
Xu Yingjie particularly agreed: "Yes, yes, you are back. You should make your grandparents happy."
At night, the mountain wind blew, and the weather was not as hot as during the day. However, there were too many mosquitoes and the buzzing noise made it impossible to sleep. Xu Zishan endured not lighting the lamp and used a big cattail leaf fan to drive away the mosquitoes twice from the mosquito net.
A family's sleepless night.
Xu Zishan silently opened the sheepfold and counted the sheep: one black sheep, one white sheep, one black sheep, one white...
I estimated that I counted more than 2,000 sheep and fell asleep.
When I woke up the next morning, it was already bright. People in the yard who were supposed to go to school and go to work had almost left. Xu Mingxuan and Xu Mingxuan had already gone to school.
Xu Zishan went out to brush his teeth and met his neighbor Hao Jianjun who was about to go out at the well. It was the household at the gate.
"If you need help in the future, just let me know. The neighbors in our courtyard are very harmonious." Hao Jianjun said gently.
Hao Jianjun is in his 40s, wearing glasses, a white shirt and black trousers. He looks very kind. He is the stationmaster of the town bus station, and his temperament is obviously that of a scholar.
Xu Zishan said politely: "Thank you, Uncle Hao."
Shen Yaqin thought about going to Tao'ao Village today and hurriedly said to Hao Jianjun: "Brother Hao, I'm going to her grandfather's house today with Yingjie and Shanshan. I won't be back at noon. Xiaoxuan and Xiaoshu are after school. Please help bring two steamed buns."
Give it to them."
With that said, he took 2 cents and gave it to Hao Jianjun.
Hao Jianjun shook his hand and said, "How can I ask for your money? There are leftovers in the cafeteria every day. I will bring some back to them."
"Thank you, brother."
"We are all old neighbors, why are you so polite?" As he spoke, Hao Jianjun packed up his things, locked the door and rode his bicycle to work.
Shen Yaqin also locked the door and took Xu Yingjie and Xu Zishan to their hometown on a cart.
In addition to my grandparents, I also have an uncle who is married and has two sons, one is 10 years old and the other is 5 years old.
My grandfather’s family has a very close relationship with Xu Yingjie, and they often communicate with each other. When Xu Yingjie broke his leg, his uncle Xu Yingting and aunt Xue Aimei came to visit, and his grandparents lent money to Xu Yingjie for medical treatment.
This family is very poor, but very friendly.
However, when Xu Zishan arrived at Tao'ao Village, he looked at his grandparents and uncle, feeling very surprised.
Uncle and grandpa look like father and son at first glance, but Xu Yingjie has no resemblance to his grandparents from his height to his appearance.
Xu Zishan consciously identifies the other person's characteristics purely out of professional habits. For an office director, memorizing people is a basic skill. She will quickly identify the other person's most identifiable characteristics at first sight and store them in her mind.
At this moment, she thought that either Xu Yingjie was not the biological son of the family, or that he had inherited it from another generation, or that he had a genetic mutation?
Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu didn't know that Xu Zishan was speculating on their parent-child relationship at this time. After Xu Yingjie and Shen Yaqin's happy and simple introduction, the old man and the old lady knew that their biological granddaughter was finally back.
Grandma Xu grabbed Xu Zishan's hand and began to wipe her tears: "This is a member of our Xu family. Look how much he looks like Yaqin! These eyebrows are black and long, like the boss."
My aunt said, "That's great. People in our brigade have always told me that my eldest brother and sister-in-law are famous all over the country for their good looks. How can it be so bad to give birth to a daughter?"
Uncle Xu Yingting didn't say anything. The family had a long history of incest, and they only gave birth to sons but not daughters. My ancestors had never given birth to any aunts.
Xu Ziyi was the first girl in the family. The Xu family pampered her to death and pampered her for 18 years. After finding her biological parents, they swept away the family and even falsely accused them of deliberately miscarrying her daughter in order to enjoy her biological daughter and delay her life.
It’s so heartbreaking that Grandpa Xu has been dark-faced for half a year.
Everyone sat together and talked. Xu Zishan kept smiling and listening to them. When they asked her, she would just say a few words without asking her or interrupting.
"Shanshan, have you and Xiaoli met?" Grandma Xu asked tentatively, "How many days can you stay here?"
Xu Zishan understood Grandma Xu's thoughts very well. While giving reassurance to Grandma Xu, she also expressed her attitude calmly.
"Xu Xiaoli has changed her name to Xu Ziyi. My adoptive mother's family treats her very well." Xu Zishan said with a slight smile.
Her expression was very calm, and she could not tell that she was dissatisfied with Xu Ziyi, nor did she mention that Xu Ziyi planned to frame her and rob her of everything.
Xu Ziyi emptied her family and went to the Xu family in Baodu City without hesitation. However, the Xu family was too kind and their feelings were too deep. They would not resent Xu Ziyi, but would feel ashamed that they were incompetent.
If Xu Zishan plays Xu Ziyi now, not only will he not get sympathy and support, but he will also arouse resentment.
But asking her to praise Xu Ziyi is impossible!
Sure enough, when these words came out, Grandpa Xu, Grandma Xu, and Shen Yaqin were all sarcastic, and Auntie said straightforwardly: "Huh, let her do whatever she wants. She used to bully these brothers all day long, and our Xu family doesn't want such a heartless person.
Rare."
Grandpa Xu had a dark face and was depressed for a while, then said to Xu Yingjie and Shen Yaqin: "Boss, we are relieved that Xiaoli will live well. We have raised her for 18 years, and her parents have also raised us for 18 years."
Year, the two are gone, don’t mention her again in the future.”
Xu Zishan nodded secretly. With Grandpa Xu's words, she felt relieved. She didn't want to provoke Xu Ziyi, but if Xu Ziyi messed with her, she would definitely fight back!
She just hoped that Grandpa Xu and Dad Xu would have a stand.
Xu Yingjie glanced at Xu Zishan and said ashamedly: "Shanshan will have to suffer with the family."
Xu Zishan said sternly: "Dad, don't say that, what is bitter and what is sweet? You have elders to listen to your coquettishness, brothers to share your happiness, mother to cook when you are hungry, father to shake his fist when bullied, what else can be better than this
Anything sweeter?”
Grandpa Xu said happily: "My granddaughter said it right, this is the child of my old Xu family!"
Xu Yingjie was so excited that his eyes were red. He was so happy to have a daughter.
As they chatted, Xu Zishan learned that his grandfather was the secretary of the Taoao brigade. He used to serve as a soldier in the north. Because Grandma Xu was not used to the life in the north, he changed his job and returned to his hometown to work at a grain station.
When Xu Yingjie was 18 years old, Grandpa Xu retired from the grain station and let Xu Yingjie take over the job. He returned to the brigade and became the brigade secretary, leading the entire brigade in production.
Xu Yingting killed one of the hens raised at home. Xu Yingting said to Grandpa Xu: "Dad, I'm going to the reservoir to ask for a fish."
"You ask them to keep an account."
Xu Yingting responded and was about to go out when he saw two young people shouting at the door: "Secretary Xu, have you eaten?"
Xu Zishan was sitting facing the door in the main room. He saw two young men at the outer door. Although they also had muddy feet, they looked bookish. One of them was wearing a watch.
