Chapter 131: Chen Bowang sighed. He knew he was still too anxious. The Lin family raised her,He should have contacted Su Lingyun first, and arranged for her to meet with Lin Shu's adoptive parents or
But his sister is old, and her health has deteriorated over the years. It is unknown how many years she can survive.
But he has no contact with either the Han family or the Lin family.
And the phone numbers of the Han and Lin families are not available to ordinary people.
Even if he asked someone to check those things, it took him several months to find someone he knew, who is now working in the military art troupe, to find out.
On the contrary, Lin Shu is a student of their college, and he has had many contacts with her because of the subject.
He received a project invitation from Guangzhou Zhongda, and he thought it was a good opportunity.
Letting Lin Shu go to Guangzhou can also get along with her grandmother.
So he called her over and told her about this.
But he didn't expect her expression to be so cold when she talked about her biological parents.
Except for a little surprise at the beginning, his expression was calm and almost indifferent.
No curiosity, no attachment, and of course, no resentment.
Chen Bowang looked at her carefully.
She asked him, "Why did the dean suddenly ask this?"
With a sudden alert.
How should he answer?
Even if he was 99% sure now, without Su Lingyun's personal explanation, he couldn't tell her directly, I know who your biological parents are, I am your uncle.
Chen Bowang was silent, turned around and took a photo frame from behind, reached out and touched the person in the photo frame, and said, "Let me tell you a story."
Lin Shu frowned slightly.
She felt some resistance and disgust inexplicably... She knew that he would not suddenly ask her if she knew anything about her biological parents for no reason, and then took a photo frame to tell her a story...
I think this story should be about her biological parents?
Lin Shu felt a ridiculous and bored mood. "It's not me," Chen Bowang pushed the photo frame in front of Lin Shu and said, "It's my sister's story." Lin Shu lowered her head. She saw that it was a photo that should be very old. There were several boys and girls on it, wearing half Chinese and half Western clothes, which was exactly the classic look of wealthy families in the early years of the Republic of China. Lin Shu didn't say anything, and Chen Bowang slowly told her about a woman's long and short life. She was smart and generous when she was young, and she was charming when she was a girl. After getting married, she also spent a very good time. Then there was the cruelty of war, the betrayal and abandonment of her husband. In the end, she was left with only a daughter who depended on each other.
For the sake of her daughter's future, she still tried her best to let her go, but she didn't expect her daughter to get pregnant before marriage. She hated the man who ruined her daughter's future and abandoned her daughter because of the family background of the Su family. Chen Bowang said: "Lin Shu, you should know that no matter it was then or now, society's acceptance of unmarried pregnancy is equal to zero, not to mention the Su family. That child, her mother insisted on giving birth to her, just relying on her love for the child in her belly, but for the sake of children, one should have long-term plans. If the child is left, not only will the mother's future be ruined, but the child will also have no future at all."
"The child's mother has a cousin named Su Lingyun."
Lin Shu was stunned.
When she first heard about the Su family, she didn't feel anything. When she heard about Su Lingxing, she was already confused, but now she suddenly understood.
Of course, she knew that Han Zhen's mother, Aunt Su, was named Su Lingyun.
Chen Bowang paused when he saw her expression change, and then continued: "Su Lingyun was originally the daughter of the eldest wife of the Su family. She was adopted shortly after she was born."
"...Su Lingyun followed her adoptive parents to join the revolution very early, and later married an officer in the army...Lin Shu, you should know that Su Lingyun's situation at that time was very different from that of the child's grandmother and biological mother. Sending the child to Su Lingyun was the best way out for the child that we could think of. So although Ling Xing was reluctant, in the end, for the child's future, we persuaded him to send the child to Xizhou."
Chen Bowang finally stopped talking here and looked at Lin Shu.
Lin Shu's expression seemed to be a little confused at first, but now he has returned to his previous indifference.
If he was not mistaken, there was even a hint of irony in his eyes.
She smiled and said, "Dean, since everyone thought it was the best choice at the time, then this page has been turned over. If there is nothing else, I will leave first." After she finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave without hesitation. "Lin Shu," Chen Bowang's voice sank, and he said, "Your mother did not let you down. She gave birth to you despite everyone's opposition and social pressure. She gave up the opportunity to go back to Hong Kong City to study for you. It was your grandmother and I who persuaded her in every way. In the end, she agreed to send you to Su Lingyun in order to give you a better future." Finally, she brought it up. ... It's already sent. Why are you telling me about this matter that happened decades ago? Lin Shu took a deep breath, turned around, looked at Chen Bowang and said, "Dean, I think you may have misunderstood. I am indeed not my parents' biological child, but I am not the child you are talking about. That story sounds like a sympathetic and sad story, but for me,It's really just a story. Because you gave the child to Aunt Su to raise, and I,"
She smiled and said, "was picked up by my parents in the snow. It was snowing outside at the time. I was wrapped in a thin swaddling cloth and thrown under a haystack. I was frozen blue all over. If my mother hadn't found me, or if it was a little later, I wouldn't be here to talk to you now."
"So the story you just told, the child that the biological mother loved and the whole family planned for, how could it be me?"
Chen Bowang was stunned for a moment, looking at Lin Shu in astonishment, and seemed to be a little confused about the situation. Then, when Lin Shu was about to turn around again, he blurted out: "No, how is this possible? ! Did you get the wrong information?"
After that, he added, "Lin Shu, you look at least 70% like your mother and grandmother when they were young! "
Lin Shu's face suddenly darkened.
She didn't care about who she looked like, damn the resemblance!
...Isn't what she said straightforward enough?
Dean, you are an authority in the field of ancient Chinese, so you can't understand if you don't speak vernacular, right?
"My father and mother told me the story of when I was picked up!"
Lin Shu said in a deep voice, "Dean, my parents are such good people that they would never lie to me about this kind of thing, and they have no reason to lie to me, so please respect them. "
Chen Bowang: ...
He didn't mean to disrespect them.
Why did this kid talk like that...
He suddenly thought of the first time he met her, when she was eloquent and indignant, forcing Xue Changdong and Xue Yu to the point of collapse.
He waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant, Lin Shu. There may be something unexpected behind this... Maybe they are just doing it for your own good. After all, the Su family is such a family. The cleaner you break up with the Su family, the better..."
"I said no,"
Lin Shu insisted stubbornly, "My mother will never lie to me about this for my own good. It's absolutely impossible."
Chen Bowang wanted to say something, but Lin Shu didn't give him any chance to speak, saying, "Dean, no regrets. You, your sister, since you have decided to cut off this relationship at that time, then cut it off. Why are you still entangled in the past and telling me all this? Could it be that you still expect something from me, or from that child who was sent away or thrown away? "
She shook her head and said, "Isn't it good now? It was good then, and it's good now. Why do you have to dig up something that happened decades ago? It was clearly over at the time."
"I'll go back to the dean first."
Chen Bowang watched her turn and walk out.
Straighten your back.
Thin but unusually resolute.
When he first saw her sneer and scold Xue Yu, forcing them to have no way out, he saw that she was very cold.
But when he met her again later, he felt that she was still a gentle and loving child.
But now he looked at her back, and it seemed that the indifference and sarcasm in her eyes were still flashing in front of him, without the slightest hesitation, expectation and pain.
The feeling that made him uncomfortable rose again.
"Send you away, After that, your mother was forced to go to Hong Kong to study by your grandmother, threatening her with death. Seeing her holding the door handle, he finally said, "You should know the situation later. After she left, there was no news. Later, the situation became worse and worse. In the past ten years, your grandmother lived in a cowshed where she had never lived before, working all day long. Her body and spirit have been tortured in the past few decades. Now, the only thing she cares about is your mother. She almost misses her and becomes sick... But we all know that she may never see her again in this life, or even get any news from her. " "Lin Shu, I don't have any excessive requirements for you. I just hope that you can visit her occasionally when you go to Guangzhou next semester, even if you don't recognize her and don't do anything else, just visit her, just treat it as seeing an old mother who has suffered a life of hardship, devoted herself to her children, but lost her sons in the war, and the mother and daughter can never meet, and she is hurt. Is that okay? "
Lin Shu had been controlling her emotions well before.
But when she heard his last sad voice, her chest was suddenly filled with some particularly sharp and painful emotions, her nose was sore and she was angry.
How could he do this?
He suddenly told her inexplicably that your biological mother was so-and-so, and that they abandoned you for your own good, how miserable your grandmother's life was, how much she loved her children, and even if you were not her granddaughter, you had to go see her and care about her, right?
If you don't go, are you still a person?
Is that what you mean?
