The memory was too deep and painful, so she learned to grow up and forget prematurely. She even dared not imagine that the man would come back, lest she would have too much hope and end up in disappointment.

Obviously, their family's life is good now and they no longer need the so-called father, but that person appeared.

It's not that he's coming back. To Liu Mingdong, this is just the place where he spent a few years of humiliation when he went to the countryside. There's no point in coming back.

After returning to the city with all the money in the family, he began to think about bringing his children over, but his family said: If you want to break off with the past, then break off everything. A country woman will only drag him down for the rest of his life.

Originally, he didn't want to remarry. No matter how bad Qin Shuilian was, the child was still his biological child. But his family arranged a job for him, so he had no choice but to accept the arrangement.

He has a new wife and a new child.

The past is all in the past, and he never thought that one day he would look for the person he abandoned.

His new wife was a very good woman, from the city. She was much more educated and well-mannered than Tan Shuilian. It was a pity that they had no son, only a daughter.

It didn't really matter that he didn't have a son. As long as the family of three lived a good life, that was enough. Thinking of how the woman had pestered him in the past, he didn't want to have anything to do with her anymore.

Two weeks ago, a fire broke out in my eldest brother's house. The adults were fine, but the children of my second and third brothers were playing at my eldest brother's house during the summer vacation. The fire took away all the nephews.

The Liu family had no successor, and the old man and the old lady collapsed immediately.

Only then did he remember that he had a son in the countryside.

It was really funny. The father who had been absent for many years returned not for a reunion, but he didn't even give her and Qin Shuilian a good look.

The room was full of people, but the atmosphere was terribly depressing.

"Liu Mingdong, I raised my son by myself, and you just take him away like that. How thick-skinned are you?" Qin Shuilian looked at the couple sitting together and felt that she was a joke when she was young.

Old Mrs. Liu is a person with very traditional ideas. She doesn't care whether she has one more or one less grandson, but now she only has one grandson and he must recognize his ancestors and return to his roots.

"The child is my son's biological child, and his last name is my son's, so he must go with my son!" Old Mrs. Liu knew that this country woman would definitely stop her, and she had already thought of an excuse, "Liu Wei is a descendant of our Liu family, and he must go back to the Liu family. This is the rule."

"I won't argue with you country folks because you are ignorant, but Liu Wei is my grandson. As long as his last name is Liu, he must follow me back to the Liu family!"

Old lady Liu had her silver-white hair neatly tied into a traditional bun. Every strand of hair seemed to tell of her past pride and persistence, and her face showed no sign of disguising her arrogance.

It was a sense of superiority that one's family and bloodline far surpassed others, as if they should be grateful just because she could recognize Liu Wei back.

However, she didn't know Liu Wei, and seeing that Zheng Feizhou was taller and more elegant than Liu Wei, she instinctively felt that this man should be her eldest grandson. "Grandma's dear grandson, go back with grandma, and you will be a city dweller from now on."

Zheng Feizhou just thought it was funny, pretending to be kind but not knowing who his grandson was, he looked at Liu Wei and deliberately asked: "Do you want to be a city dweller?"

Liu Wei curled his lips and said, "I'll go find Uncle Song later. I want to change my last name."

Then he looked at Old Lady Liu and said, "I won't be named Liu anymore. Go back and live in the city!"

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Zheng Hanqiu, who was eating melon seeds nearby, nodded in satisfaction. This was her home, and there was no reason for her, as the host, to avoid suspicion.

Old Mrs. Liu's face turned red.

Liu Mingdong looked at Qin Shuilian and said unhappily, "Is this how you teach your children?"

The panic just now had passed, and Qin Shuilian calmed down at this moment. She asked back: "Is there any problem?"

"No problem?" Liu Mingdong was very angry. "How could you teach your child to talk to the elders like this? How could our Liu family's children be so rude?"

Tan Shuilian sneered, "As a father, you don't care about your child and you haven't even bought him a set of clothes or a piece of candy. What qualifications do you have to question me?!"

Liu Mingdong looked at her in surprise. His memory of her was still stuck in ten years ago, when she almost obeyed his every word.

She was the one who earned the work points for the family, and gave herself the place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. She even gave him all the money in the family when she knew he was going back to the city.

He knew that she wanted to take her back to the city himself, but he felt only disgust for this forced marriage.

No matter how good she was to him, in Liu Mingdong's heart she was not worthy of him.

Before they met again, he thought she would be haggard, depressed, and even in tears without him.

But I didn't expect that she was living a vigorous and radiant life, and even had the confidence that she didn't have before.

It made him doubt whether his memory was wrong.

When Qin Shuilian's attitude became tough, Liu Mingdong's attitude softened. He pretended to say some words of regret and self-blame, and then talked about the various reasons why he was forced to do so.

Then she said in an almost pleading tone: "Shui Lian, I just want to make it up to you and give the child a better future.

Think about it, if he can go to the city, he can get a better education, here he can get a high school diploma at best, but if he goes back with us, we will definitely train him to be a college student, don't you want him to have a better future?"

He tried to use the regional differences to convince her that this was for the good of her son and to give him a brighter future.

Tan Shuilian hesitated.

Which mother doesn't want a better future for her children?

It was impossible for her and Liu Mingdong to have a marital relationship anymore, but he was the father of the child and would never harm the child.

Liu Wei was a little anxious, "Mom, you don't really want to give up on me, do you?"

Tan Shuilian wanted to say something but couldn't utter a word, and she was holding her breath but couldn't utter a word.

Old Mrs. Liu sat aside and watched coldly.

Although Liu Wei doesn't look as smart as Zheng Feizhou, he looks decent. Even though he is disrespectful and impolite now, he will be fine if he is taken back and disciplined properly.

"Xiao Wei." Old Mrs. Liu called in a friendly manner, but her voice was unquestionably strong.

"Good grandson." She gently patted the empty seat beside her, motioning her grandson to sit next to her, "Come sit next to grandma."

Liu Wei gave her a stab wound and refused without even thinking: "I don't want it."

He has no memory of his father at all, let alone of his grandmother. Why should he be treated as if he doesn't exist when he doesn't want them, and should go with them when he wants them?
