Du Peilan's anger eased when he heard this immature voice, and he looked down at the small child.
Blinking his dark eyes, he looked at her with a curious expression.
Du Qiuyi beckoned to Zhuang Zhuang.
"Zhuangzhuang, call grandma."
"Hello grandma, I'm strong!"
This cute voice made Du Peilan's heart melt instantly.
This is her grandson, why life is like this, Du Peilan's heart is sour.
But she couldn't help but take her strong hand.
"Good boy."
"Grandma, what's wrong with you, aren't you happy to see us?"
"No, grandma is very happy to see you."
It's just that Zhuang Zhuang feels that his grandmother is not so happy now, and even a little indifferent.
"Peilan, I didn't expect our two families to be so related, Qiu Yi is actually your daughter, we are all here today, take a look, set the wedding date of the two children, right?" Old Man Si said.
Du Peilan ignored the old man's words, looked at him coldly, and just wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Yu Fan.
"Mom, you see that the old man Si is here in person, let's discuss it, old man, you can sit down."
Du Qiuyi obviously felt that her mother was in a very bad mood, looking sullen, and worried for a while.
Du Peilan looked at Yu Fan, not knowing what he was thinking at the moment, but seeing him so calm, she was sure that Yu Fan had long known who the man Du Qiuyi was going to marry was.
Du Peilan was stunned for a moment, and then looked like he was about to faint.
Yu Fan saw his mother's emotion, and hurriedly held her hand and said:
"Mom, you go upstairs and rest for a while, and I'll take care of everything."
Having said that, the memories that the Si family brought to Du Peilan were too dark, and she trembled again when she thought of this.
Du Peilan nodded indiscriminately, and Anxin carried her upstairs.
Du Qiuyi also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Yu Fan.
"It's good that mom has peace of mind to take care of her."
Then the servant poured tea for the old man.
The old man looked at Yu Fan and kept nodding.
"I didn't expect you to grow so big, you are really a talent."
Yu Fan chuckled, but no emotion could be seen in this smile.
"Thank you for the old man's compliment, it's just that my mother's education is good."
"It's really hard for your mother after so many years."
Yu Fan smiled bitterly.
Hearing the old man's words, Si Zeyu was still a little puzzled in his heart, and asked repeatedly.
"Grandpa, do our family and the Yu family know each other?"
Old Man Si looked a little excited.
"Zeyu, Yu Fan's grandfather and I are old friends, but we left early, twenty years ago, there was a change in the Yu family's business, Yu Fan's father had an accident again, hey, so many years have passed, I have been looking for their mother and son, but I didn't expect Qiu Yi to be the descendant of the Yu family."
Yu Fan looked at the old man in front of him, he was really good at acting.
But he still said:
"Old man, isn't it discussing the marriage of my sister and Ling Sun today?"
"Yes, yes, I'm so happy to see you, I actually forgot about the big thing, I found someone to look at the yellow calendar, next Sunday is a good day, how about you set it on that day?"
"Okay, it's up to you."
The wedding date was set like this, and the people of the Si family were very happy, but Du Qiuyi's heart was up and down, she saw her mother's expression, and Yu Fan's performance, and she had a vague feeling in her heart that they were hiding something from her.
Du Qiuyi was worried about her mother's health and wanted to stay in Yu Fan's villa to take care of her. was rejected by Yu Fan.
For several days in a row, Si Zeyu was preparing for the wedding, Du Qiuyi wanted to help, but couldn't intervene, Si Zeyu just told her, take care of her body, and be the most beautiful bride in the world.
Early in the morning, Yu Fan was about to go to the company, but received a call from Du Qiuyi, asking him and Du Peilan to meet at a tea house.
Yu Fan and Du Peilan arrived at the tea house at the agreed time, but saw Du Qiuyi and Old Man Si waiting there early.
"Mom, brother, you're here."
Du Peilan looked at her daughter, she hadn't seen her for a few days, her complexion was better, and her body seemed to be much more rounded.
But she looked at Old Man Si, and her eyes became hollow again.
If it weren't for Yu Fan persuading her in the past few days, she would never have agreed to let Du Qiuyi marry into the Si family.
Old Man Si looked at Du Peilan and felt guilty in his heart.
After all, it was he who was one step late, which caused Yu Fan's father to act so impulsively, so that their mother and son kept the vicissitudes of the world.
"Qiu Yi, you asked me out today, why did you bring the old man out?"
Du Peilan's expression was indifferent, and he didn't give the old man a good face at all.
"Peilan, I didn't say much when I went to your house that day, you weren't feeling well, I asked Qiu Yi to ask your mother and son out today, after so many years, I want to know where you took your child in the first place?"
"Hehe, what, why did the old man suddenly care about us, did he think we weren't miserable enough at the beginning?" Du Peilan looked at Old Man Si and sneered.
"Mom, what happened back then?" Du Qiuyi knew that something must have happened to the Yu family and the Si family back then.
"Then I'm going to ask your grandfather?"
"Hey, Qiu Yi, I'm sorry for your family, if I hadn't gone abroad to negotiate that contract, I wouldn't have missed your family's affairs, and I would definitely do my best to keep your father."
"Old man, you don't want to act, didn't you submit the materials to the court back then? Yu Fan's father is a little wrong, but it can be regarded as a guillotine sent by you. Du Peilan looked at Old Man Si like this, and he didn't want to hide it anymore.
originally wanted to hide this matter for Qiu Yi's happiness, but seeing the hypocritical face of Old Man Si, Du Peilan really couldn't control herself, and despite Yu Fan's obstruction, she said all this.
"What? Perran, what are you talking about? What happened back then was obviously done by Gu Shaoting? Old Man Si looked surprised.
"Gu Shaoting?" When Du Peilan heard this, she couldn't believe it, obviously it was Gu Shaoting who told her in person that it was the materials submitted by the old man Si.
And just after Yu Fan's father jumped off the building, it was Gu Shaoting who helped them go abroad.
And they were given shelter.
Du Qiuyi listened to all this, and seemed to understand a little, her father's death seemed to have an unshirkable relationship with the Si family.
She looked at Old Man Si with a puzzled expression.
"Grandpa, what the hell is going on?"
Old Man Gu spoke slowly.
"I didn't know that something had happened to the Yu family back then, and by the time I knew, the person was already abroad, and he had talked about a business about the life and death of the Si family, so I couldn't come back."
Old Man Si paused and continued:
"I sent a housekeeper to Yu's house to appease your father, and told him to wait for me to come back to help deal with it, but when I came back from abroad, I heard the bad news of your father, and when I went to Yu's house to look for you again, there was no trace of you, and I sent someone to look for you for many years, but there has been no news of you."
The housekeeper, that is, Yu Fan, looked at the man who smiled at him.
Didn't that man go to his house back then to force his father to repay his debts? How did it become a soothing thing thing in the old man's mouth?
"Old man Si, you keep saying that the person who reported it back then was not you? It's Gu Shaoting, do you have any evidence? Yu Fan was still very sensible, he looked at Old Man Si and asked.
"Of course there is, but in my study, I asked the butler to send it over."
About twenty minutes later, the butler came to the tea house with a suitcase.
After the housekeeper and the old man greeted him, he looked at Yu Fan's mother and son, smiled slightly, and nodded.
Facing this man of the same age as his father, Yu Fan was slightly stunned.
The housekeeper of the Si family was not the man he saw laughing at back then.
What the hell is going on.
He looked at the butler.
"How many years have you been in the Si family?"
"About thirty years, right?"
Yu Fan was even more stunned, the housekeeper had been in the Si family for thirty years, so who was the man he saw back then?
At this time, Mr. Si unlocked the combination lock of the box.
The contents surprised everyone present.
It was a report material, accompanied by photos,
And the signatures on the materials and the people on the photos are not Mr. Si.
Du Peilan knows, that person is the one she has always regarded as his benefactor, Gu Shaoting!
The teacup in Du Peilan's hand fell, and his face was incredulous.
"No, it can't be!"
Yu Fan also clearly saw in the photo that the man following behind Gu Shaoting hooked his lips slightly, and he would never forget that smile in his life.
"Who is this man?"
Old Man Si glanced at it.
"This is the housekeeper of the Gu family, after Gu Shaoting died, he didn't know where he went? I heard that it seems to have gone abroad to retire. โ
As he spoke, Old Man Si took out some yellowed newspapers in the box again, which looked like they were some years old.
The newspapers of the major newspapers have published missing person notices.
And the people who were searched were Du Peilan's mother and son.
When he saw these bright evidences, Du Peilan couldn't hold back any longer, his mouth opened and closed, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
For so many years, she has always regarded her enemy as a benefactor, and has always regarded the Si family as the object of her revenge.
Time is a sharp weapon, stinging not only the heart, but also more and more difficult to achieve.
Over the years, she has lost her daughter, and her son has lost his happy time, making him live in hatred.
For Du Peilan, there are too many joys and sorrows in her life, and sometimes, she will be in a trance, how much has she lost and how much has she gained?
She can't remember clearly, the pain of those years, those unforgettable partings of life and death, but slowly clear in her memory, perhaps, these hatreds, it's time to give up.
Old man Si took out another document and handed it to Yu Fan.
"You take this."
When Yu Fan saw the document in his hand, his eyes widened.
