Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 116



In a courtyard dwelling in the capital.

Dai Shu Fang sat on the wooden sofa with her hands clutching her arms. Her nails almost dug into the flesh.

Pale, she stared at the modern-looking woman in front of her. She was young and beautiful. Draped in a red dress, she looked perfectly confident. At her feet, she wore on a pair of black high-heeled shoes that were extremely shiny.

If nothing else, just this piece of clothing can't be bought in this country!

While Dai Shu Fang was looking at her, Wang Anna, who was opposite her, was also eyeing her.

Before she came over today, she specially dressed up. Clearly, she was very satisfied with the effect.

Honestly, the woman on the opposite side didn't have bad facial features. It was just her complexion was terrible. Her skin was even more unsightly. She wasn't even forty years old, yet she had white hair!

If she knew earlier that the other party was so old, she wouldn't had to get up so early to dress up. What a waste of her time!

Dai Shu Fang took a long time to find her voice and uttered, "You said...you are Huo Zheng Chen's wife?"

Wang Anna nodded: "Yes, Ms. Dai. My name is Wang Anna. I married Elder Brother Chen in Country Mi eight years ago. We have a daughter and a son together. Today, I came to you at my own discretion. Elder Brother Chen didn't know. "

Dai Shu Fang was so heartbroken that she could barely breathe.

Eight years ago. It was the fourth year of Huo Zheng Chen's disappearance and the second year they were taken to the farm. At that time, they were going through rough batches, while he welcomed his sweet wife in the bridal chamber!

How ironic!

She should have known since they had been separated for so many years. With his age and ability, how could he be single for so many years?

When he was in the production team, she heard him mention having amnesia during those years. She was so shocked and surprised that she didn't think of it. Later, she hurried back to the capital and wanted to find a way to get her son back. So this matter had been ignored.

Laying it bare, he lost his memory at that time and was working hard abroad. He couldn't completely be blamed him for marrying a wife and starting a family again. Still, she felt uncomfortable!

Wang Anna took in the other party's paling face. The corners of her mouth raised upwards: "Ms. Dai, I hope you don't blame Elder Brother Chen. Those years weren't easy for him at all!"

Dai Shu Fang clenched her fists and still remained silent. Mentally, she was snorting.

He didn't have an easy time? Then they did?

In the first few years when they were labelled as wicked ones, they almost got criticism parade every day. Those people were like crazy. A group of people would throw stones at them and spit on their faces. They often ended up with bumps and bleedings. If it wasn't for Chi-er's sake, she and her father-in-law wouldn't be able to survive!

Wang Anna continued: "It was my dad who rescued him from the black workshop. It was also my dad who introduced contacts and supplies to him. To put it bluntly, if it weren't for our Wang Family, Elder Brother Chen might not be where he is today!"

Dai Shu Fang used a lot of strength to keep herself from losing her temper. She coldly stated, "So?"

Wang Anna raised her chin slightly and replied with a certain tone, "Elder Brother Chen is a affectionate and faithful person. So even if he feels guilty toward you, he will not leave us, mother and children!"

In fact, what she didn't say was that she was the one who chased after Huo Zheng Chen. She used some small tricks to conceive his baby. It was only then did Huo Zheng Chen agreed to marry her.

But so what?

It was a fact that her dad saved him back then. And it was her dad who gave him resources. If it wasn't for their Wang Family, he might have lost his life!

For this, Huo Zheng Chen will always owe them, Wang Family!

In the 50s and 60s, her dad made a lot of money in the stock market. However, in the late 60s, the economic crisis broke out in Country Mi. The stock market fell sharply and many people went bankrupt. While, Elder Brother Chen made a lot of money by selling oil resources.

She was very satisfied with the man she chose. So no matter what, she will not step back!

Dai Shu Fang glared at the mirth at the corner of the other's mouth. Feeling deeply humiliated, she uttered: "Leave now. I don't welcome you here! If you want Huo Zheng Chen to divorce me, let him come over himself!"

Don't hide behind a woman, like a shrunken turtle. It would only make her look down on him!

There was a rush of footsteps outside the yard.

Wang Anna frowned. She stood and walked up to Dai Shu Fang. Reaching out, she grabbed her hand and spoke, "Elder Sister, I'm not here to destroy your family. I'm here to join Huo Family! When Elder Brother Chen married me, it's because he lost his memory. If Elder Brother Chen hadn't lost his memory at the beginning, he would definitely not leave you! So please don't blame Elder Brother Chen, okay? If you want to blame someone, blame us! "

Dai Shu Fang couldn't wrap her mind from the other's face change. But she soon understood because Huo Zheng Chen was here!

Huo Zheng Chen appeared at the door with sweats on his head. He had heard what Wang Anna said and couldn't speak any words to reprimand her.

He had reminded Wang Anna in advance that she shouldn't come here. He would find an opportunity to clarify the existence of her and the children with Dai Shu Fang and his dad.

It was just that every time he saw the premature aging faces of Dai Shu Fang and his dad, he couldn't utter those words.

They suffered on the farm, while he married and had children in a foreign country. Those words would make him feel like a scum!

He had no power to turn back time though.

In those twelve years, he lost his memory, and couldn't remember anything from the past. He had been in the black workshop for more than three years and his family had never came to look for him.

He was also very depressed at the time, thinking that he was abandoned by his family. Later, Wang Anna and her dad rescued him and helped him gain a firm foothold in Country Mi.

Every steps he took was linked to Wang Family's help. So he couldn't abandon Wang Anna.

Sandwiched between two women and families, he didn't feel great or happy at all. He felt like walking on the edge of a knife every day and would get destroyed if he was not careful at any time!

If it was possible, he would rather not have sent military supplies and get amnesia. He would rather go to the farm with his wife and children!

But now it was useless to say these things. Fate conspire against people!

Dai Shu Fang was so disgusted with Wang Anna that she shook off her hand and responded, "You really make me sick!"

Wang Anna displayed a hurt expression: "Elder Sister... I can understand your anger and heartache. If it were me, I would feel the same way. I know that what I say now is useless, but don't blame Elder Brother Chen. If you want to blame, blame Heaven. It caused the current situation!"

Dai Shu Fang didn't want to look at this pretentious woman in front of her anymore. She was afraid that she would vomit on the spot.

She turned her head to look at Huo Zheng Chen and said, "You came at the right time! If this woman hadn't come over and told me she is your wife, how long do you plan to hide it from me?"

Huo Zheng Chen frowned and walked in with heavy steps: "Shu Fang, I wronged you, mother and son! I originally wanted to find a time to tell you, but never thought..."

Unexpectedly, Wang Anna ran over by herself!

They had been couple for so many years. Of course, Wang Anna knew Huo Zheng Chen was blaming her right now: "Elder Brother Chen, I'm sorry! I know I shouldn't take action on my own, but I saw how you can't eat or drink well these days. I feel distressed. Also, Huaxia have an old saying? Short pain is better than long pain. Sooner or later, Elder Sister will know about this..."

Dai Shu Fang coldly interrupted her: "Please call me Ms. Dai like you did before. I can't bear the weight of your 'Elder Sister'!"

Wang Anna's face instantly changed.

Huo Zheng Chen glanced at her before looking at Dai Shu Fang and said, "I did you and Chi'er wrong on this matter. I'll make it up for you, mother and son!"

Dai Shu Fang only felt that her heart had been squeezed hard: "So how will you make it up? Will you divorce this Ms. Wang?"

"Elder Brother Chen..."

When Wang Anna heard Dai Shu Fang's words, she nervously turned to Huo Zheng Chen for fear that he would nod at the next moment.

She was sure that if she divorce with Huo Zheng Chen, she would never find a man as good as him in her life!

And she really loved Huo Zheng Chen. She fell in love with him when he was destitute!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have used the underhanded means to scheme on him back then and conceived his baby before marriage. It was all because she wanted this man so much!

Struggle and pain flashed in Huo Zheng Chen's eyes.. He couldn't nod his head.

In fact, he couldn't give up on either side.

Seeing his response, Dai Shu Fang's heart felt cut up: "So you want to enjoy the blessings of everyone else?"

Want to have both the empress and heroic female? Dream on!

Huo Zheng Chen's brows were knotted together: "Shu Fang, I..."

Dai Shu Fang only felt her eyes were sore and uncomfortable. She pointed to the door and declared, "Both of you get out. I don't want to discuss this issue with you until Chi-er come back!"

She didn't want to stay in the same room with them for a single moment!

The sight of their face made her feel disgusted. If it wasn't for Chi-er's sake, she would want to cut ties with him now!

Chi-er hadn't had a father for so many years. So she can't impulsively deprive him of his father's love. That was why she will endure it temporarily until Chi-er returns.

Huo Zheng Zhen anxiously shouted, "Shu Fang!"

"Go away!"

"What is going on?"

Huo Hua Qing walked in from the outside with a cane. After noticing an unfamiliar woman in the room, his feeling of something not right strengthened.

Although Wang Anna had never met Huo Hua Qing before, Huo Zheng Chen looked very similar to him. She immediately guessed the identity of the other party.

Her lipstick-covered lips curved and smiled, "Dad!"

Huo Hua Qing examined at her and coldly responded, "Don't randomly call that. I don't have a daughter as big as you!"

Wang Anna didn't rush to explain her identity, but instead looked directly at Huo Zheng Chen.

In this situation, it was impossible for Huo Zheng Chen to dodge it. So he had to briefly explain the matter.

When Huo Hua Qing found out, his eyes widened and he stared at his son in disbelief: "So, when we were struggling to survive on the farm, you got married and had children abroad?"

Huo Zheng Chen's face went red and white: "Dad, I'm did you wrong!"

Wang Anna spoke out to defend him: "Dad, Elder Brother Chen hadn't recovered his memory at that time. He doesn't remember you at all!"

"Shut up!" Huo Hua Qing said coldly, "Also don't call me Dad again. I can't bear it. I, Huo Hua Qing, will only admit Dai Shu Fang as my daughter-in-law!"

Wang Anna was so exasperated that she pinched her fingernails into the flesh of her palm. She made an aggrieved expression on her face though.

Huo Hua Qing glared at Huo Zheng Chen: "I will not pursue the past. I will now give you a chance to immediately divorce that woman in front of you. Otherwise, don't call me Dad!"

"Dad!" Huo Zheng Chen cried out in pain.

He really wanted to split himself in half!

His feelings for Wang Anna have always been flat. Can't compare to one-tenth of his feelings for Dai Shu Fang back then.

It was just that Wang Family saved his life and Wang Anna accompanied him for so many years. They also have two children. How could he say abandon just like that?

Seeing him like this, Dai Shu Fang fell into deeper despair. She turned around as her tears streamed down her face.

In the early years, she thought he was dead. She was so sad that she wanted to go with him. Later, when she found out that he had come back to life, she thought that all the hard days were over. She was too naive!

If she had known this earlier, he might as well not come back. At least in her heart, he was still the same Huo Zheng Chen as back then!

Seeing his daughter-in-law crying, Huo Hua Qing picked up the cane and hit Huo Zheng Chen and Wang Anna: "Vile spawn, I'll hit you both to death!"

Wang Anna screamed in fright and accidentally slipped to the ground.

There was a burst of pain from her belly. A burst of dampness appeared under her body. She looked down and screamed again: "Blood...I'm bleeding..."

The few people looked at her. The sight of bright red blood seeped out from under Wang Anna's bum entered their eyes.

Wang Anna fainted from fright. Huo Zheng Chen called her name, ran over, picked her up, and ran out.

Dai Shu Fang watched his back as he ran away with tears streaming down again.

Before, she had been wishfully thinking; she felt that Huo Zheng Chen married the other out of gratitude. But now it seem that he did have some feelings for Wang Anna.

Huo Hua Qing was stunned when he saw the blood on the ground.

Was that woman pregnant?

After such a fall, a miscarriage would happen?

Huo Hua Qing felt conflicted within.

He was very pleasantly surprised when his son came back to life. He thanked Heaven for bringing his son back to him.

Never thought his son would marry a wife and have children outside. What to do with the current situation?

——

The first college entrance examination was in December. The admitted students can't wait until September to go to school. Most college required them to report to duty before March.

From Qili production team to the capital, it took countless transit change. In total, ten days and ten nights were needed to get to the capital. This was Qiao Dong He's first time going to the bigger world. It went without saying Qiao Family couldn't feel assured to let her go alone.

Eldest Qiao and his wife were eager to send Qiao Dong He to the capital. However, neither of them had traveled far before. Both of them were extremely unreliable. If they were really asked to take Qiao Dong He to the capital, everyone would be even more worried.

Qiao Zhen Min got broad horizon, but he can't take so many days off from work. So after much discussion, it was finally decided that Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan would go.

Although they'll need to take 20 days of leave, Qiao Family got some savings. They didn't need to rely on those work points to support survive.

Qiao Zhen Guo scratched the back of his head and said, "Dad, Mom, why don't I go with you. I can help carry things!"

The farthest he had been to in his life was the provincial city. He also wanted to go to the capital to see landmarks; go the Great Wall to be a brave man!

Qiao Xiu Zhi rejected in disdain, "You're not as strong as me. If you want to go, you can go there when you bring An Ping over when he get admitted to college in the future!"

Qiao Zhen Guo immediately looked at his son expectantly.

An Ping QaQ: Suddenly the pressure was so great.

Also, why was eldest sister getting brought over by grandparents, while he'll be brought over by his unreliable dad? Why did he feel that grandson was so worthless?

Wan Chun Ju originally thought that if her in-laws agreed to let her man go, she would also join in. Unexpectedly her hope was dashed so soon. So she could only go out and continue to boast to everyone that she had a daughter who was admitted to college.

But before Qiao family set off, Huo Chi suddenly appeared in the production team. With him was Qiao Hong Xia's family of five.

Qiao Hong Xia had been married for less than five days before she followed Wang Yan Sheng to the army. It had been almost five years since she left.

In the past five years, she gave birth to one son and one daughter. The youngest daughter was only one year old.

It was Saturday when they returned to the production team. Da Qiao and her elder cousins were coming back from town. The groups collided at the intersection.

An Ping saw a jeep passing by them and enviously remarked: "Where is this jeep from? It looks much more handsome than a sedan car!"

Boys, they always liked these cool and tough things.

Da Qiao and Qiao Dong Ying were also eyeing the jeep in front of them. Before they could speak, the jeep braked. It stopped in front of them and raised a cloud of dust.

Then the door was opened. A tall and thin boy jumped out of the back seat and waved at them, "Elder Sister Da Qiao, Elder Sister Ying, Elder Brother An Ping!"

Da Qiao and the others were stunned. They stared blankly at the boy in front of them.

They took in his shaved head, long feet, and long hands. Smiling so wide, the fair face's small eyes that were looking at them right now almost disappeared!

These little eyes were so classic!

An Ping yelped out with his cracked voice: "Little Yi Ming? You are little Yi Ming!"

"Hahaha, Elder Brother An Ping, what happened to your voice? Why does it sound like ducks are quacking when you open your mouth?" Yi Ming burst into laughter.

Saying that, he bolted toward them.

When he ran to Da Qiao, he suddenly became a little awkward: "Elder Sister Da Qiao, do you still recognize me?"

Da Qiao looked at her younger brother who had grown up a lot and found it very novel: "Of course I remember. Although you have grown a lot taller, you still look the same as before."

Yi Ming squinted his eyes and laughed. But the next moment he heard his elder sister Da Qiao commented, "The eyes are just as small."

Yi Ming: "..."

An Ping let out duck laugh again.

Qiao Dong Ying amusedly glanced at Younger Sister Da Qiao. No wonder they were part of Qiao Family; a professional jabber!

At this moment, the front door of the jeep was also opened. A tall and thin youth stepped out of the car.

The gentle sunshine of spring hit him; casting fine golden light on his head and face. Facing the light, he walked towards them.

For Da Qiao and the others, he came against the light. They didn't see him clearly until he reached them.

The thick eyebrows, starry eyes, the high nose bridge, and the resolute thin lips that was pursed into a line. When looking at them, it seemed to move slightly and drew a seemingly non-existent arc upward.

Da Qiao stared blankly at the person in front of him and didn't make a sound for a long time.

Huo Chi's eyes fixed on her and he spoke, "Qiao Nian Nian, don't you recognize me?"

"Elder Brother Huo Chi!" Da Qiao called out and suddenly felt a little shy.

When they were small, she called him Elder Brother Huo Chi. But now that they grew up, she felt something weird calling him this.

But before Huo Chi could answer, An Ping dashed over and grabbed his shoulder, "Hahaha, I thought I was the only one with a duck voice. Never thought you too. We're fellow sufferers!"

Huo Chi's face immediately flushed: "..."

He really wanted to punch him in the face. This An Ping, he open the pot that shouldn't be opened!

He had deliberately lowered his voice just now because he didn't want Da Qiao to find out that his voice had become unpleasant. Unexpectedly, he opened his scar in a second!

Qiao Dong Ying saw Huo Chi's blushing face and let out a chuckle.

With this chuckle, the sense of strangeness and estrangement caused by time immediately dissipated without a trace.

How wonderful. Even after being separated for many years, they were still the closest relatives and friends!

The news of Huo Chi being alive was known to Qiao Family two years after Huo Chi went to the army and settled down. Oh, except for Wan Chun Ju.

At that time, An Ping was so angry that he secretly berated Huo Chi. When Huo Chi 'drowned', he secretly hid and cried. However, the other party faked his death!

Qiao Hong Xia and Wang Yan Sheng soon got out of the car.

The crowd got roused up again.

Because the jeep couldn't take so many people, Wang Yan Sheng took Qiao Hong Xia and the two younger children to the production team in the end. Yi Ming and Huo Chi insisted on walking with Qiao siblings.

As soon as Wang Yan Sheng's jeep entered the production team, it immediately attracted the attention of the villagers.

"My goddess, I seem to have seen old Third Wang."

"Which old Third Wang?"

"Which old Third Wang can it be? Of course, old Third Wang from the production team leader's family!"

"Oh, I saw too. It's really him! Is that Qiao Hong Xia sitting in the back?"

Now was the slack season, there wasn't much heavy work in the fields. When everyone saw old Third Wang driving a jeep over, they immediately surrounded him.

When everyone saw Qiao Hong Xia, they couldn't help but make a sound of envy.

Over the past few years, Qiao Hong Xia's temperament had changed a lot.

To put it simply, she had the temperament and aura of an official wife. Completely different from when she was in the countryside.

And she also dressed like the people in the city. Everyone surrounded her with envy and jealousy.

When they noticed Huo Chi, everyone was shocked.

"Why does this child look so familiar?"

"Why do I think he look like the pigsty boy who had drowned back then?"

"If you didn't say it, I wouldn't remember. Now you did, I do. It's really him! Didn't he die back then?"

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to Huo Chi.

Wang Yan Sheng quickly explained to everyone.

This time, he specially brought Huo Chi back to the production team to let everyone confirm Huo Chi's identity as 'resurrected from the dead'.

Back then, Huo Chi had drowned, but his body couldn't be found from the beginning to the end. Now it was explained that he was swept away by the flood, hit his brain, and lost his memory. So he didn't return to the production team. Like this, this matter sorted.

In this way, Huo Chi's identity can return to its original position.

After everyone heard it, they found it incredulous. No one thought too much. After all, this matter didn't involve everyone's interests.

After finally getting out of the siege of the villagers, Wang Yan Sheng took Qiao Hong Xia back to Wang's house first. While Da Qiao took Huo Chi to Qiao's house.

As soon as he entered Qiao's house, he ran into Wan Chun Ju who was holding her little daughter.

Seeing Huo Chi, Wan Chun Ju widened her eyes and immediately let out a shriek: "Ghost!"

The author has something to say: New Moon Gege: I am not here to destroy your family, I am here to join you.

Wang Anna: Me too!

[Note: The sentence Wang Anna said was from Qiong Yao's "New Moon Gege"]
