Chapter 18 The Truth?
Their voices were naturally very light, but Xia Zhiqiao's five senses are still a little different from those of ordinary people. She clearly heard the content of their conversation.
Xia Jin said, "...There is no room for maneuver in the Li family. One unfaithful one hundred times will not be allowed. As long as Xiaoqiao agrees to break off the engagement, no matter what Li Pengcheng says."
Lu Tong, "I mean that. Today I have sorted out all the fees and engagement gifts incurred on the day of engagement. I will give him the things Li Pengcheng bought for Xiaoqiao. I will ask Xiaoqiao to organize them tomorrow morning. Since it is broken, it will be broken completely and will not leave any talk to the Li family."
"The old lady might do something, let's be careful." This was Xia Jin's voice.
When he talked about his mother, he did not hesitate or cover up.
Xia Jin's voice was lowered again, not intimate words, but something that shocked Xia Zhiqiao, "My classmate called me today and wanted to tell you the first time, but something happened to Xiaoqiao, and I didn't have time."
Lu Tong said with a slight urgency, "What did he say?"
"The old man's ancestral home is indeed in Liangzhou, Jiangnan. It is a place called Yinhua Village. Several old people in the village still have an impression of Xia Mancang. No one knows where the Xia family came from. However, at that time, the elderly man of the Xia family died, leaving only Xia Mancang with a son. The family was penniless. Later, Xia Mancang married the orphan who fled. Xia Mancang actually had four children, two sons and two daughters. The eldest and the second son are boys. It is said that they are twins, the third and the fourth son are girls. I should be one of the twins. I was born in 1936. Six years later, in 1942, one of the twins died. Then, in less than seven days, Xia Mancang left Yinhua Village with his wife and three children. After that, he never went back."
Xia Zhiqiao held his hands slightly together, but his expression did not fluctuate much.
This is something she had long doubted in her heart.
However, I have trouble understanding some things. For example, my father and grandfather are very similar, and they are obviously like father and son.
No one would believe anyone who said Xia Jin was not Xia Mancang's son.
Lu Tong, "But you look so similar to the old man, how should you explain this?"
Xia Jin sighed, "Yes, I can't understand either."
Speaking of this, Xia Jin paused for a moment, and then said in a faint voice, "... When I was young, I didn't understand why my mother could be kind and vicious for a while. Why did she just give you a piece of candy, but in a blink of an eye, she slapped you with a ferocious look. I didn't understand why. She smiled at you the moment before, but the next moment, she could kick you away with one kick. It seemed that the more I cried, the happier they were... But, I still haven't figured out why they had such a distorted and contradictory mentality... "
Lu Tong's voice was soft, with even more snorting and heartache, "Since we have found so much, then the truth is not far away. I won't say anything, the past has passed, and they will never torture you like this again. You and me, and four children..."
Xiazhiqiao took a gentle step to the west wing.
Of course, I can't turn on the lights, but I can see them roughly.
After drinking half a glass of water, I didn't stop and went back to my room again.
Lying on the soft bedding, Xia Zhiqiao's brows frowned slightly, but it turned out that his father had long been suspicious.
He even secretly asked his classmates to investigate quietly.
Although Dad Xia Jin is not a genius, he is also very smart.
Although there was a pair of perverted and vicious parents, Xia Jin still met several noble people.
Unlike other places, Mo County is also one of the ancient cities of China.
There was a top scholar here, and there was a Tanhualang Shangli Princess.
So, there have been many schools.
Xia Jin, who has worked and supported his family since he was eight years old, naturally couldn't go to school.
But my younger brother can do it.
He had to take his younger brother to school every day, and he had to pick him up to school at night.
He can learn things secretly every quarter of an hour.
The master in the school is a good person. After knowing the situation of the Xia family, he didn't say anything. He did his best to take time to teach Xia Jin.
The eight-year-old eldest son of the Xia family finally got his own name.
Later, New China was established, Xia Jin was thirteen years old, and the money he earned could already support a family.
A new world and a new atmosphere.
Literacy activities began in the city. Everyone thought Xia Jin could not read a big word, but he stood out. The fourteen-year-old Xia Jin met his second nobleman in his life, Mr. Xu, the leader of the literacy work group. With the intervention of Mr. Xu, Xia Jin entered junior high school and then high school a few months later. When he was eighteen, he was admitted to Beijing University. However, Xia Mancang and Liu Cuihua forced him to study in Beijing and did not allow him to study in Beijing. Xia Jin had to choose the agricultural school in the province.
Even so, Xia Jin was also the first college student in Mo County.
After graduation, he could have stayed in the provincial capital, but Xia Mancang sent him back to Mo County with a letter.
Xia Jin went to the Agricultural Bureau.
When he was twenty-four years old, Xia Mancang forced him to get married.
It was a widow whose two husbands died.
It is said that the two husbands died unexplained.
But there is no evidence.
Xia Jin had already secretly fallen in love with Lu Tong at that time.
With the intervention of a leader at that time, Xia Jin and Lu Tong received their marriage certificates.
Now that things have come to this point, Xia Mancang and Liu Cuihua have no choice but to recognize them.
However, they were not willing to do so.
Xia Jin got married and worked very hard. At that time, the leader in charge of agriculture admired him very much and wanted to transfer him to be his secretary, but he was reported by Xia Mancang.
Xia Mancang not only reported his son Xia Jin, but also reported several leaders who admired and cared for Xia Jin at that time.
Although the report content was randomly fabricated, it still had an irreversible impact on Xia Jin.
With such a pair of parents who love to report, Xia Jin was gradually rejected and alienated.
Later, the old leader opposed Xia Jin and recommended that Xia Jin be the section chief and be in charge of agricultural machinery, hydropower. In fact, many people appreciate and sympathize with Xia Jin. They think that such a talented Xia Jin would be really unlucky to meet such a pair of biased and unreasonable parents.
Then, Xia Mancang and Liu Cuihua, who were unwilling to be lonely, went out again.
This time, they succeeded.
The widow Zhang Qiniang, who was once introduced to Xia Jin, took a child to the courtyard of the town government in Mo County. He was a baby girl who was less than a month old.
She said that I don’t know if this child is Xia Jin or the old leader.
I hope they both give some money to raise their children.
She is really unaffordable, a widow.
Naturally, Xia Mancang and Liu Cuihua were right around her, crying and scolding, saying that they were both noses and eyes. At that time, they were just getting off work and even caught up with the provincial rectification work team.
This working group is still focused on ideological and style construction.
