"okay!"
Su Xiang rushed into the house happily, took a plate of firecrackers and returned to the yard. His performance made Su Yaning, who had just walked out of the kitchen, dumbfounded and full of disbelief. Although she could tell from her brother Su Xiangfei's behavior yesterday that he and Tang Xiu had a much harmonious relationship, she never expected that he would obey Tang Xiu's words to this extent.
Su Yaning now knows that Tang Xiu is powerful. Not only has he established a very powerful Shengtang Group, but he is also a member of the Tang family in Beijing. But she also knows her brother very well. With the relationship between her family and Tang Xiu, how could her brother Su Xiangfei be like this
"Pa bang bang..."
The sound of firecrackers sounded, and Su Lingyun and Zhang, who were busy in the kitchen, also started making dumplings. While the firecrackers were setting off, Su Yaning came to Su Xiangfei's side, frowned and asked, "Brother, you seem... to listen to Tang Xiu's words?"
Su Xiangfei smiled and said: "He has the ability, so naturally I have to listen to him."
Su Yaning said angrily: "But our parents..."
When Su Xiangfei heard this, he suddenly remembered something. He looked at Tang Xiu who was walking towards the kitchen. He lowered his voice and said, "Sister, this is my fault. I forgot to tell you before. Tang Xiu has already contacted the person in Star City." I asked the people around me to find a way to bail our parents out. By the way, when I just got up, Tang Xiu told me that our parents were already on their way back, and they were only about to... in more than two years. Hours later, they can return to the village.”
"What?"
Su Yaning looked at Su Xiangfei in disbelief, the news resounded in her heart like thunder.
Su Xiangfei said again: "Sister, I know you are still angry with Tang Xiu and think it was him who made us lose everything. But think about how we treated Tang Xiu and aunt before? Yes, at that time our family had Money, my aunt held Tang Xiu back, and her life was very difficult. She even often came to our house to borrow money. But we looked at them with such condescending eyes, treated them with such disdain and made things difficult for them, and the two of us even almost hurt Tang Xiu. Go to jail. Right?"
"Sister, look at it now. Tang Xiu's wealth now is more than a hundred times greater than our family's back then, right? But what about him? How does he treat us? As long as we kiss him, he and his aunt will not be together at all. He will not look down on us, and will not make things difficult for us at all. Dad committed suicide in the hospital before, why? It was not because of the failure of the family, but because he regretted his treatment of Tang Xiu and his aunt. "
When Su Xiangfei said this, he silently took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit it and took a few deep puffs. With a hint of bitterness on his face, he said again: "You know, what really made me realize that something has gone wrong in our family over the years. , what’s the reason?”
Su Yaning asked blankly: "What's the reason?"
Su Xiangfei pointed at the courtyard door and said bitterly: "I just returned to Sujia Village. The people in the village don't know that our family has been defeated and that our parents are in jail. But when they saw my eyes, they were full of contempt and disdain. Disgusted, even they are looking down on me. Why? Haven’t we forgotten our roots over the years?”
"root?"
Su Yaning felt that her heart had been hit hard, and a faint pain arose.
yes!
My roots are in Sujia Village. Even if my family once owned tens of millions of assets, so what? Can we still forget our ancestors? If you forget your ancestors, what will become of your family
Su Xiangfei gently hugged Su Yaning's shoulders and sighed: "Sister, we were wrong before, and we have to admit it. Our previous attitude towards Tang Xiu and aunt, and the attitude towards the folks in Sujia Village was a mistake. As the saying goes : Acknowledging your mistakes can make a lot of improvements. Last night I really felt the change in the villagers' attitude towards me. Even Su Quan drank a little too much last night, and he told me something. Do you know what it was? ?”
"What's up?"
Su Yaning looked a little pale and asked in a low voice.
Su Xiangfei said: "The village next door, Xiaowangzhuang, are you familiar with it, right? We grew up here when we were young. Su Quan drank too much, and then he told me that we should recognize our ancestors, cherish our relatives, and unite the folks in the village. , because we all have the surname Su, and we are all from the same ancestor, and we are all one family. As for Wang Xinke from Xiaowangzhuang, you must have heard of it, right? Because he was doing well, he went to the city to do big business. The family was extremely wealthy, and he always looked like he was showing off his power every time he came back. The result? Just two years ago, Wang Xinke's father died in Xiaowangzhuang. On the day of the funeral, because of his poor popularity, he even had a coffin bearer to help. None of the villagers. What happened next? His uncle, who was the village chief, took him from house to house, kowtow to apologize to others, and finally some villagers were willing to help carry the coffin, and then the old man was sent to the fields."
Su Yaning understood.
An expression of regret appeared on her face, and she remained silent for a long time. Moreover, she found that her brother had really grown up and become more sensible. He was no longer the child who stayed out of tune all day long just because the family had a lot of money.
"Brother, I understand."
Su Yaning hugged Su Xiangfei, then let go of him and strode towards the kitchen.
Two hours later.
A police car stopped at the end of Sujia Village. As the door opened, Su Shangwen and Zhang Meiyun walked out of the police car, followed by a middle-aged man in police uniform.
"Officer Hu, thank you, thank you for sending us back in person." Su Shangwen held the middle-aged policeman's hand and said with gratitude.
The middle-aged policeman smiled and said: "You're welcome, this is what I should do. Also, say hello to Mr. Long and Mr. Chen for me."
"sure!"
Although Su Shangwen knew Long Hanwen and Chen Zhizhong who had freed the couple from prison, he had no friendship with them at all. Tang Xiu should be the one in charge of all this, but he still opened his mouth to deal with it.
As the police car left.
Su Shangwen squatted down, opened the travel bag on the ground, took out two cigarettes from it, opened one, took out a few packs and put them into his pocket, then stuffed the others back into the travel bag, and then turned around to look Looking at Meiyun, she said calmly: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Sujiacun is my home, and my mother is here. We have made many mistakes before, and I hope you can live peacefully with me like you said."
Zhang Meiyun forced a smile, nodded and said: "Shangwen, it was all my fault in the past, and I already know I was wrong. Don't worry, I will never put my eyes on my head again in the future."
Su Shangwen nodded silently, then picked up his bag and walked towards the village. As soon as he entered the village, he saw several villagers who had gotten up early and went from door to door to pay New Year greetings to their elders.
"Brother Dazhu, Jianxi..."
After Su Shangwen greeted him, his face was full of smiles. He even took out cigarettes from his pocket and scattered them one by one.
When several people saw Su Shangwen, they were too lazy to pay attention. But seeing his enthusiastic look, several people were surprised, but they all nodded and took the cigarettes handed over by Su Shangwen.
"Just come back."
Su Dazhu nodded and said.
Su Shangwen said with an apologetic smile: "Brother Dazhu, it was all my fault in the past. Even though I had a little money, I forgot my last name. Don't worry, I will definitely change my ways in the future. Sujia Village is my home, and so are the people in the village. My relatives."
Su Dazhu and others looked at each other, and then Su Dazhu nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile on his face: "Yes, it is really not easy to realize that you are wrong. Your son is also good, he is a man. If you have time another day, come and sit at my house. Sit down, I'll let your sister-in-law prepare some dishes, and we can have a few drinks."
son
Su Shangwen was stunned, but he still agreed with a smile on his face.
Immediately, Su Shangwen said goodbye to several people and walked into the village, meeting many villagers along the way. Every time he stopped to greet everyone with a smile on his face, and opened cigarettes to smoke with everyone. What puzzled him was that every villager would mention his son Su Xiangfei a few words, with a tone full of admiration. He wanted to ask why, but because people kept passing by and greeting everyone, he never asked.
It took more than half an hour for Su Shangwen and Zhang Meiyun to arrive at the door of their old yard. They looked at the off-road vehicle parked outside. Su Shangwen stopped, looked at his wife and asked, "Have you noticed that this time we When we come back, the people in the village seem to treat us differently than before."
Zhang Meiyun also deeply felt the change in the villagers' attitude towards the couple. She nodded silently and said, "Well, it has become... cordial. In the past, when we came back, the villagers didn't pay much attention to us."
Su Shangwen sighed: "That's because we looked down on others before, and their reputation was very bad in the village. Let's go! Although we don't know why this situation has changed, we have to cherish it. After all, this is the place. Our home!”
"Um!"
Zhang Meiyun was hit by a series of events, and her previous arrogance had long disappeared. She carried her luggage bag and followed Su Shangwen into the yard.
"Dad, Mom."
Su Xiangfei and Su Yaning had been waiting in the yard for a long time. When they saw their parents appearing, they jumped up from their chairs almost instantly and rushed forward.
"Xiao Fei, Xiao Ning."
Zhang Meiyun's eyes suddenly welled up when she saw her children again. She hugged them and was unwilling to let go. Su Shangwen just glanced at his children, and then his eyes fell on Tang Yunde and Tang Xiu in the yard.
Take a few steps forward.
Su Shangwen walked up to the expressionless Tang Yunde and knelt down straight: "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry."
Tang Yunde sighed in his heart, slowly helped Su Shangwen up from the ground, shook his head and said, "You don't have to tell me you're sorry. It's your sister and your nephew you're sorry for."
Su Shangwen turned to look at Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu said directly: "There is no need to say sorry. If you can change, you are still a relative. If you cannot change, each side of the road faces the sky."
Su Shangwen nodded heavily and said, "I will change it."
now.
Zhang, who heard the commotion in the house, came out accompanied by Su Lingyun and Mu Qingping. When Ms. Zhang saw her son Su Shangwen, she was stunned.
