Chapter 432 Follow-up
The entire ceremony was solemn and dignified. Zheng Xiangqian's tears flowed silently as he silently vowed, "Dad, you have given an excellent answer to the Party and the people. Rest in peace! We will never tarnish your reputation."
"Comrade Zheng Xiangqian, please feel free to tell us what you need, and we will do our best to fulfill it." Several leaders came over to shake hands with Zheng Xiangqian. They were so approachable that he was flattered. These were the important figures he only saw on the TV news!
"Thank you! Thank you, leader! My family and I don't have any needs, we're all fine!" Zheng Xiangqian shook his head nervously.
One of the leaders said earnestly, "Really not? Your father sacrificed your family for the greater good of the Party, so we should do our part to help."
“Our father is also our pride. His choice is perfectly understandable, and we all understand it!” Zheng Xiangqian’s gaze swept over Song Tingnan, and he pulled her over. “This is my younger sister. She works at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Please keep an eye on her!”
"Hahaha... You're a good brother, and Comrade Song Tingnan is also great. Just tell me what you need."
"Thank you! Premier, do you have time on Monday? I'd like to report to you about my trip to Japan." Zheng Xiangqian knew his younger sister wanted to talk about the donation, so he continued, "Premier, my sister represents our whole family."
The Prime Minister knew something was amiss as soon as he heard that. "Alright, alright, I'll be waiting for you!"
Zheng Xiangqian returned home with a pile of medals and a martyr's ID card proving Zheng Yueqiang's identity. Now, the Zheng family can hold their heads high in the local area.
He needs to have a good talk with Song Xiuying first. Nan is right, her mother is probably the one who wants to know the truth the most.
After Song Xiuying accepted the truth, he took out the ring that held great significance. Song Xiuying held the ring and cried her heart out—the man she loved had not abandoned her.
Zheng Xiangqian informed Zheng Zhibei and Zheng Ruidong that the whole family had returned to their hometown.
Fortunately, the family of Aunt Zheng Shujuan managed the business, especially her cousin Lei Ming, who not only managed the brick factory very well and kept the accounts spotless, but also, with the help of his wife Gu Xiaomin, maintained good relations with the surrounding villagers.
This time, Zheng Yueqiang returned to his hometown in glory. People from all around came to bow and kowtow to the martyr and set off firecrackers.
Zheng Xiangqian held a three-day banquet to wash away his previous humiliation.
Unexpectedly, this move led to a surge in orders for the brick factory, and Lei Ming was working non-stop, counting money until his hands cramped.
As soon as Song Tingnan returned to her uncle Song Yanchu's house, the phone rang. "Tingnan, go answer it, it's definitely for you."
Song Yanchu remained seated. His phone had been ringing frequently these past few days, always from the same polite young man. He wondered if the "Red Phoenix Star" in the south had finally moved.
"Tingnan, you finally answered the phone! Have you finished everything?" The excited voice coming from the other end of the line was Zhong Shengli.
"Almost done. How are things on your end?" Song Tingnan was also very happy to hear from his old friend.
"Hmm, are you worried about me? Let me tell you, the Suzuki family is a complete mess. Poor Suzuki Han. Suzuki Kaori went crazy in the street, and when the higher-ups found out, they arrested her."
Suzuki Nishi was heartbroken and forced Suzuki Han to pull strings, but no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail.
In the end, Suzuki Kan chose to give up, listing the rebellious and crazy things Suzuki Kaori had done, especially not attending her father's funeral and fooling around outside.
He issued a statement saying that Suzuki Kaori had been expelled from the family, which angered Suzuki Nishi so much that she vomited blood and was hospitalized.
However, even in the hospital, she couldn't find peace, because Bai Ruoxi, who had also miscarried, was in the same hospital and was causing her trouble every day. Zhong Shengli knew that Ting Nan didn't like gossip, but seeing the wicked get their comeuppance was very satisfying.
Song Tingnan leaned back on the sofa, very relaxed. "That's right. I thought she was a good person, but I didn't expect... how is her eldest son doing?"
