Chapter 653 World 113
Well, what Yinyin told Di Heping today has come true.
"Dad, how did you know?" Yin Yin thought for a moment. "We didn't see anyone else on the road. Do you have some kind of third eye?"
“Stop joking,” Di Shengli almost couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s not that I have the ability to see into the heavens, it’s that your sixteenth uncle saw him when he passed by.”
“He’s from Qinghe Village, and no one in his family is studying at school. Why would he suddenly go to the vicinity of the school, especially on the road that you two must take to get back to Yuejin Village?”
“Your sixteenth uncle felt something was wrong and specifically mentioned it to me.”
“So that’s how it is,” Yin Yin said. “Dad, it’s not that my brother and I didn’t want to tell you.”
"What I mean is, why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? How could a nobody like Liu Laosan be worth your personal attention?"
"Besides, he feels that he's getting older now, and if Liu Laosan wants to find him, there will be plenty of opportunities. He can't let you show up every time."
"If he could persuade Liu Laosan to back down on his own, then you wouldn't have to worry about him anymore, right?"
As she spoke, Yinyin recounted to Di Shengli the whole story of how Liu Laosan had come to find them.
Di Shengli nodded after listening: "If Heping wants to handle it himself, that's fine. Just pretend you don't know anything about what I asked you about today."
"However, if Liu Laosan does something that you can't handle in the future, you can't keep putting up with it, understand?"
Yinyin nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Dad, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things. My brother definitely won't be so concerned about saving face."
Di Shengli was definitely at ease with his daughter; in his heart, there was no one more considerate than Yin Yin.
"Alright, go and rest."
Yinyin agreed and went back to her room.
Before Yinyin and her classmates started school, Yinyin finally convinced her parents to let her move out of the small cubicle in their house and have her own room.
Yinyin kept the little house very clean, but she didn't put many elegant things inside.
After all, this house isn't a place where outsiders will never come. If they see it and say that Yinyin is greedy for pleasure and likes a bourgeois lifestyle, that wouldn't be good.
So all Yinyin can do now is keep the house clean and bright; minimalism is also a kind of beauty.
The next day, Yinyin and her friends went to school as usual. When they got out of school in the afternoon, they saw Liu Laosan waiting on the road again from afar.
Not to mention Di Heping, even Yin Yin was somewhat surprised.
She thought that after Di Heping made those points yesterday, Liu Laosan should disappear from Di Heping's life completely, just like before.
It seems she underestimated how much a man values his own son.
Yin Yin touched her chin, putting on a profound look: "Brother, I have to tell you the truth."
"What?" Di Heping and Yinyin hid behind the growing wheat.
“After you and Auntie left last night, my dad asked me if Liu Laosan had come looking for trouble with us again,” Yinyin paused, “and I told my dad the truth.”
“So what if I said it?” Di Heping didn’t take it to heart. Compared to that, Liu Laosan in front of him was more of a worry. “Now I guess I’ll have to get my uncle and my mother to handle this.”
“My mother divorced him at the time, and it was clearly stated on the divorce certificate that I lived with my mother.”
“Then let’s…” Yinyin glanced at him and pointed to the path beside them.
Di Heping nodded, and the two of them sneaked around in a big circle and left through the path left in the wheat field.
They usually don't like to pass through here; the road is narrow, and it's easy to bump into ears of wheat.
Now that it's harvest season, they'd be heartbroken if the crops were even slightly damaged.
So they moved very carefully, taking longer than usual to get around that section of the road.
When they got home, the two went to tell their parents.
Di Shulan was rolling out dough when she heard the child's words, so she grabbed the rolling pin and rushed out.
Seeing this, Di Shengli grabbed a broom and followed, not forgetting to leave a message for Yin Yin and the others: "Tell your uncle too."
Yinyin understood and took Di Heping to her uncle Di Shengmin's house.
Di Shengmin reacted similarly, grabbing his weapon and heading outside.
Di Youzhi had grown up and become sensible. He picked up a stick from somewhere and said with great momentum, "Brother, sister, come on, I'll back you up!"
Aunt Chen Yuhua, both amused and exasperated, snatched the stick from his hand: "Alright, go with your brother and sister. Remember to listen to them and don't rush in impulsively."
"Oh," Di Youzhi said. This wasn't the first time his mother hadn't trusted him, and he was used to it. He obediently followed behind his older brother and sister.
They spoke to Di Shengmin, which was already a bit late, and then they waited for Di Youzhi for a while, so it got even later.
When they arrived, Di Shulan had red eyes and looked at Liu Laosan as if he were her enemy.
That would make them enemies.
She had given him so many chances before, but he never changed.
The two villages are so close, yet he disappeared from Di Heping's life for nearly ten years.
What, now that you're old and have lost a child, you feel the pain and want to come back and take Di Heping away?
Why!
Di Heping pushed through the crowd and hugged his mother: "Mom, are you alright?"
“Hehe,” someone passing by Qinghe Village naturally helped Liu Laosan, “You see, your father knows he was wrong, and now he sincerely wants to apologize to you and your mother, so please forgive him.”
"Whether you're studying or getting married in the future, with his help, won't things be easier for you?"
"Besides, he did give birth to you and raised you. Even if he made some mistakes in the past, he has corrected them now."
Di Heping patted his mother on the back, ignoring the man, and looked directly at Liu Laosan: "Stop acting. You're acting so well that you're starting to believe it yourself, aren't you?"
“You’re not regretting it and coming to beg for my and my mother’s forgiveness. You’re just thinking of me, the son from your ex-wife, because you’ve lost all hope for the rest of your life.”
"It's been almost nine years since we last met. If you have any feelings for me, the distance between two villages and my uncle's cold face are nothing. Do you really think they can stop you from coming?"
"Peace," Liu Laosan tried to explain urgently, but was interrupted by Liu Heping.
“Everyone says your second wife was harmed and lost her child, rendering her infertile, and you suddenly realized the truth,” Di Heping sneered.
"Your realization has come at a very inopportune time. Your mother-in-law caused your death, and your husband is fundamentally an unreliable and cowardly man."
"They say they regret it, but in reality, they won't even seek justice for the dead child or the harm she suffered."
"If you ask me, your wife should sue your mother."
"At least someone will be arrested and put in jail, which will be some consolation for that poor child."
“Peace,” Liu Laosan couldn’t help but exclaim, “That’s your own grandmother!”
“Mom, Uncle, look,” Di Heping laughed, “the secret has been exposed.”
