I didn't answer, nodded weakly.

I want to tell him that Mi Li only said that my name is Zhou Sasa, and the other farts didn't say, and the old lady still has a lot of questions in her heart. But in the face of Mi Zhencai's haggard back, I can't speak......

No matter how partiality he was in the past and how much he ignored me, he couldn't erase this nurturing grace.

Mi Zhencai sighed heavily, snuffed out the cigarette, got up and walked to the bookcase, took out a gift box and handed it to me.

"This is a dowry gift from the eldest young master of the Quan family at noon, originally for his younger brother to propose to you, but it was disturbed by Xiao Li at noon. Don't blame her, she has been ...... by me and your mother since she was a child Oh no, spoiled by me and your Aunt Niu. ”

"......" I was speechless.

can guess that Kwon Hyuk's visit at noon could not be for himself, although this dead man is ridiculous, he will not go crazy.

Weakly opened the gift box and looked at it, it was a pair of walnuts. I don't know much about that, and I don't know how much this pair of walnuts is worth. But Mi Zhencai is an expert in this area, and now he wants to return the dowry......

So I guess, it's probably not worth a few bucks.

After all, Mi Zhencai is an iron rooster, although he is not as naked as Niu Zhaoxia, but he has always held economic power at home, and Niu Zhaoxia's mother and daughter have to ask him for instructions if they want to buy thousands of clothes.

As for me, I haven't had hundreds of clothes since I was a child, and I only sell them on the ground or pick up old clothes that I don't want to wear, so I rarely ask him for money.

"Xiao Li is also bitter in her heart, after all, I heard your Aunt Niu mention that Xiao Li has liked Quan Yu for a long time and has long wanted to marry him." Mi Zhencai said, walked to the single sofa and sat down, and made me a pot of tea.

I didn't bother to bother with this bridal gift, so I put the gift box of walnuts on the desk and pulled a chair to sit next to him.

"Dad, I understand!" Taking a sip of tea, I explained, "But in fact, I am helpless about this marriage." ”

"Dad understands that at noon, Quan Dashao has made it clear, his brother likes you and wants to marry you, and he will ...... with you There is no fate. ”

Mi Zhencai rarely had such a reasonable moment, and the four words of fate unconsciously made my eyes wet again.

I remembered what Kwon Hyuk said to me in the car after meeting the best mother-in-law that night: Why can't love be stupidly believed? Sasa, can you believe that it is me who will spend the rest of your life with you in the end, not someone else?

I don't know if I should be stupid enough to believe his words, although I can be sure that his asking me to marry Quan Yu is not a merciful abandonment. He has me in his heart, and maybe there will be in the future.

"Don't talk about that!"

Mi Zhencai interrupted my thoughts, got up and walked to the desk, and handed me the dowry again,

"You take the dowry back and bring it to the Quan family, Xiao Li is nonsense at noon, since she and Quan Dashao failed to get the certificate, I can't accept this dowry."

I couldn't understand that he was so entangled in the dowry for Mao, so I frowned and asked suspiciously:

"Why can't you take it? Dad, I'm still your daughter, if I want to get married, how can I make you not receive a dowry from your husband's family? ”

I thought to myself, you don't have to get rid of the relationship so quickly, do you?

"No, this Daddy, I ...... I can't stand it! ”

Mi Zhencai seemed to be a little touched, blinked desperately as if holding back tears, took off his heavy black-framed glasses and wiped them, and sighed,

"After your mother left, I haven't been able to treat you well all these years, I ......"

Even though I didn't see tears in his eyes, I was still touched by this sentence. Standing up and holding his hand, I said sincerely:

"Dad, no matter what, you raised me. A father for a day, a father for life! ”

As soon as these words came out, Mi Zhencai finally breathed a deep sigh of relief, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he clenched my hand:

"Good ...... Good daughter......"

To tell the truth, at this moment, I wiped a trace of doubt in my heart, and I always felt that he was pouring me ecstasy soup by retreating. After all, the truth of "Zhou Yang's death" was confusing, and I was not sure what role the Mi family played in it.

But then again, Mi Zhencai raised me after all. Regardless of whether there is family affection in the past, whether he is a murderer or not, the grace of parenting cannot be erased.

I'm just very worried, if he is really the real murderer of Zhou Yang, what should I do? Who can understand the entanglement in the heart of a child raised by a father killer?

reminds me of Jin Yong's Yang Kang......

At this moment, I can more or less understand his "scum", if it were me, even if I was not greedy for the glory and wealth in the hands of my adoptive father, it would be difficult to kill the enemy.

Thinking of this, I decided to explore the conversation. took the initiative to pour a cup of tea and handed it to Mi Zhencai, and tried to ask:

"Dad, have you thought about my mother all these years? She ......"

I wanted to be a tactful cliché, but was interrupted by Mi Zhencai and directly threw out the topic:

"You want to ask me about your mother and your father Zhou Yang back then, right?"

I nodded, no longer evading.

"Okay, Daddy won't hide it from you anymore. Tonight is a good daughter who is a father and daughter and tells me everything in the past...... "Mi Zhencai stroked my head like a loving father, and when he said this, his expression was very sincere, as if he felt a sense of relief?

I don't know if I'm wrong, but I instinctively breathe a sigh of relief, guessing that he might not be the real murderer. raised me, just because he loved Su Man, or for some other reason, such as ......

Kindness?

Next, Mi Zhencai did have a heart-to-heart, starting from when he was young......

He was born in the countryside and studied hard for more than ten years before going to university in the city. I also made some achievements professionally, and with the support of my teachers, I finally got a place at M University.

Niu Zhaoxia is his childhood sweetheart, and the two are fingered for marriage. After graduating from university, he and Niu Zhaoxia held a wedding in their hometown. Due to the lack of legal awareness in rural areas, marriage certificates have not been obtained for a long time. In addition, when he first joined the work, he didn't have a house and lived alone in the teacher's dormitory, so Niu Zhaoxia was unable to go to the city to reunite with her husband.

Niu Zhaoxia was unintentional about these things, but Mi Zhencai was intentional.

"I can't let go of your mother Su Man......" Mi Zhencai sighed in the cigarette, pulling away the memories, "She is the first woman in my life and the only one I have ever loved, although I have always had a crush in college." After graduation, I stayed in school as a lecturer, thinking that I would have a career and be worthy of her as a pianist. But who knows, she would rather be the underground lover of the negative man Zhou Yang after marriage than accept me? ”

As soon as these words came out, I was stunned.

suddenly remembered that Wu Yifan had said that his father abandoned Su Man for the future......

It turns out that this is not a lie!

Zhou Yang is indeed a negative man, in order to climb the Kurban family, in order to marry Ayiguli, he ruthlessly abandoned Su Man, and after marriage, he still asked her to be an underground lover?

Oh my God, how can I have such a scummy father?!

"It wasn't until the class reunion in 1996 that I reunited with Mr. and Mrs. Manman and Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Yang. At that time, I saw that Manman was a single mother with a two-year-old girl, and I knew that it was Zhou Yang's flesh and blood. ...... that night," Mi Zhencai said and stopped, and secretly raised his eyelids to see my reaction.

"What happened that night?"

My heart was unguarded, and my heart suddenly rose to my throat, and I was busy asking nervously.

Mi Zhencai breathed a sigh of relief, got up and walked to the window, stared at the night outside the window, and recalled:

That night, Zhou Yang and Su Man had an affair and were bumped into by his wife Ayiguli, and the three had an argument. When I woke up and rushed to the scene, the four of them were arguing and not giving in......"

I interrupted in surprise: "How are there four people?" Who else? ”

Mi Zhencai paused, turned around and stared at me with a serious face, and said righteously:

"The bodyguard of the Kurban family, Wu Zhiguo!"

"......" I was stunned, my eyes wide and I couldn't recover at all.

How is Wu Zhiguo?

Isn't he Wu Yifan's adoptive father?

With my scheming skills, I can't see that Mi Zhencai is testing me at all. He couldn't decide how much truth Wu Yifan knew and how much he told me.

Seeing me so surprised at this moment, Mi Zhencai had a number in his heart. After relighting a cigarette, he sorted out his thoughts, knowing what to tell me and what not to tell me.

"I didn't want to get involved at the door, but when I heard Zhou Yang say that Wu Zhiguo and Ayiguli also had a personal relationship, I finally understood why Manman was willing to be Zhou Yang's lover. At that moment, I felt sorry for your mother......"

Mi Zhencai said, walked back to the single sofa and sat down, avoiding my gaze, and continued in a weak tone,

"So, when Ayiguli held on to the question of 'whose seed are you', I decisively entered the door and recognized you."

Although he kept his eyes down when he said this, as if he was a little unconfident, it still moved me instantly. rushed over and half-squatted at his feet, I lay on his lap with tears in my eyes, and choked up:

"Dad, I ......"

I couldn't go on, and infinite guilt came rushing in. In the past, Mi Zhencai's favoritism vanished in my heart all of a sudden.

Mi Zhencai stroked my head like a loving father and said heavily:

"I love Manman, and it's right to do this for her!"

This is true, and I feel it deeply. Su Man has always ignored our father and daughter, but Mi Zhencai tolerated her everywhere and never quarreled.

I remember that on Valentine's Day one year, Mi Zhencai bought her a high-end scarf, but Su Man sneered. even threw the scarf to me disdainfully in front of Mi Zhencai. Mi Zhencai not only didn't get angry, but also smiled and sloppily eyes, saying "It's the same for my daughter" and so on.

Moreover, the name "Manman" Mi Zhencai has never dared to call it before, and he tried to call it in person a few times, but he was stopped by Su Man as cold as frost, and he also ridiculed Mi Zhencai in front of me, saying that he was not qualified to call her that way as a hillbilly.

So in the past, their "husband and wife" have always "respectfully" called each other teachers, she called him "Professor Mi University" or "Hillbilly", and he called her "Teacher Su".

It can be determined that Su Man doesn't love Mi Zhencai at all, but he has a deep affection for her.

suddenly remembered that Wu Yifan said that Su Man went to the United States after leaving and became his stepmother......

Is this a lie?

Thinking of this, I wiped my tears and no longer felt nostalgic, raised my eyes and asked Mi Zhencai:

"Dad, apart from Zhou Yang and you, does my mother have any other men?"

When the words fell, Mi Zhencai was very surprised: "Why do you ask like this?" ”

At this moment, he was very panicked, worried that Mi Li would be so stupid that he shook out the personal relationship between Su Man and Quan Donghai to Mi Sa. After all, in order to protect himself, Su Man told a big lie to Quan Donghai......
