My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 214 - 31 Brainwashing_2
Chapter 214: Chapter 31 Brainwashing_2
"Not socks and hats are okay." Yang Xiaoli had a troubled look on her face. Although she didn’t have much schoolwork now, she didn’t really enjoy doing this kind of thing.
"The items would probably sell, but they have to be stylish to fetch a good price. Your neat and tidy ones won’t sell for much. And why send them back? Wouldn’t it be better to sell them here in the Capital where you can get a higher price?" Zhu Huixi commented, picking up a half-finished sock that Yang Xiaoli had crocheted.
Yang Xiaoli knew what Zhu Huixi was talking about but simply shook her head and said, "I would like to, but my mom won’t listen to me at all."
Lin Xiaoguai spoke up, "I see you have quite a lot of yarn. Can I buy some from you?" She thought the quality of the yarn was good and wanted to crochet something for Shen Chi and her son.
"Sure, but I don’t know how much the yarn costs per pound. You can take some to use first, and pay me after I’ve asked my mom," Yang Xiaoli readily agreed.
She would love for the yarn to just disappear from her sight and naturally wouldn’t object.
"I’ll buy some too." Zhu Huixi looked at Lin Xiaoguai, seeking her favor. "Xiao Guai, will you make it for me, please?"
Lin Xiaoguai thought it wouldn’t be too much trouble and naturally wouldn’t refuse, but she still wanted to look out for her own interests: "Then you treat me to tea eggs tomorrow."
"Deal, no problem!" Zhu Huixi, knowing Lin Xiaoguai was just teasing her and not short on money, agreed without hesitation.
"Why are you here?" Shen Chi, just having left the military base, spotted Han Shouxin standing there.
"I have something to discuss with you," Han Shouxin said, tossing away his cigarette butt and putting on his military cap.
"Shall we talk in the cafeteria?" Shen Chi probed.
"No, let’s go outside. I drove here," Han Shouxin responded.
After finding a restaurant and entering a private dining room, Han Shouxin ordered food, sent the waitress away, and then said, "Your promotion report has been approved, and I came today to talk to you about the old man."
Shen Chi’s expression paused, "Does he know about my existence?" His tone was unembellished, and it was unclear whether he was pleased or angry.
Han Shouxin nodded, "He has known since last time and even came to see you secretly." He had no intention of sparing the old man’s dignity, not to mention he resented being involved in the matter.
"So what now, he plans to have me acknowledge my ancestry and return to the family?" Shen Chi asked with a raised eyebrow and an indifferent expression.
Han Shouxin tensed up internally, "What are your plans?" Of course, he hoped his brother would return as the Second Young Master of the Han Family.
"I think I’ve made my decision clear, I will only ever go by the name Shen Chi for the rest of my life." Shen Chi’s expression grew even more indifferent, "Although my adoptive father hasn’t treated me well in recent years, before I left home, I was raised as their own son by him and my adoptive mother, not to mention they saved my life. My adoptive father only has a daughter and no biological children, so anyhow, I should continue the family line for him."
Han Shouxin hadn’t expected him to think this way and found no words to refute it. After all, saving a life is more important than anything else, and however much his adoptive father might have fallen short, it was nothing compared to the deplorable things his biological father had done.
"No matter what you think, nobody can take away your share of the Han Family’s inheritance," Han Shouxin finally said.
The food was served, and the two began to eat. After the meal, Han Shouxin hesitated but decided to tell Shen Chi the truth about the past.
Shen Chi wasn’t surprised by the revelation; in fact, he somewhat expected it, "I see, I’ve always felt it. If the county had leaked any information, how could they not find anyone? After all, in that area, only daughters were abandoned. I wasn’t poorly dressed at the time, and there were quite a few people who were suspicious." Even his dad and mom, when they first picked him up, didn’t intend to raise him but waited for his biological parents to come looking. Only after no one showed up for a long time did they register him and raise him as their own child.
"So... will you visit him?" Han Shouxin couldn’t help but ask before leaving.
Both knew exactly who ’he’ was.
Although he asked, he didn’t hold out much hope, given all the hurtful things the old man had done, even though he now regretted them.
Shen Chi agreed without hesitation, "Sure, but I’ll have to wait until Wanwan is on vacation."
His face was calm, but his mind was buzzing with wicked ideas: How could I torment him if I didn’t see him?
It was only when Lin Xiaoguai returned from her vacation that she learned about the news, frowning, "Are you really going?"
"Of course, I’m going," Shen Chi replied with a cold laugh. "Not to mention the old man, Liu Yuzhi has toyed with me for so long, I can’t just let it go."
He was really curious to see how that distinguished lady’s face, which once appeared before him, would twist when she saw him.
"Is Little Niangao going as well?"
"He’s going too," replied Shen Chi without hesitation. ƒreewebɳovel.com
"Daddy, Mommy, where are we going?" Little Niangao couldn’t contain his curiosity.
"To General Han Kuang’s house," Shen Chi squatted down to explain, "Dad has always said there’s nothing to admire about General Han Kuang. You’ll see it’s just a terrible old man."
"Really?" Little Niangao was a bit conflicted but couldn’t help looking forward, "Maybe he can do the Somersault Cloud and the 72 Transformations?"
"You can ask for that when the time comes," Shen Chi continued to give his son bad advice.
"Should I call him grandpa?"
"Call him Grandpa Han. Only our own grandfather can be addressed without a title. Calling others that way might cause misunderstandings."
Little Niangao wasn’t convinced, "But I also just call the gatekeeper grandpa."
"That’s different. Those who become generals tend to have bigger egos and look down on people. If you called them that, they might feel insulted..."
Listening to Shen Chi tirelessly indoctrinating his son, Lin Xiaoguai had a full head of black lines. (To be continued.
