“Brother, let me tell you, she’s been thinking about finding her biological parents all these years.
Our dad has been good to her, right?
She really is ungrateful!” After saying this, He Dongxue was waiting for He Teng to scold He Zhilan for being heartless.
But all she got after a long wait was He Teng telling her to go back to her room, and she left, pulling a face.
He Teng was much older than He Dongxue, so his thinking was much more mature than hers.
If He Zhilan was indeed kidnapped, it’s a fact that she would want to find her biological parents.
Besides, according to He Zhilan, she was the only child in her family, so her parents must have doted on her very much when she was a child.
If a family’s only child was taken away by a human trafficker, how anxious the parents must be?
So, in that sense, if He Zhilan didn’t want to find her biological parents, that would be truly ruthless.
He Teng stood in the yard for a while.
Seeing He Zhongguo coming back with a gloomy face, he knew that his attempt to borrow money must have been unsuccessful.
He Teng wasn’t surprised by this outcome.
Everyone in the village knew about the He family’s situation, and they all had borrowed money from relatives who could lend it.
“Dad, don’t go to the village anymore.
It’s all in vain,” He Teng couldn’t help but say.
He Zhongguo stumbled a bit and walked towards He Teng, sighing, “Don’t you think there’s something wrong with the people in our village?
Our Miss Zhilan is so talented, the first one in the county to get into Capital University.
It’s amazing, but they just can’t see it.
All of them are advising me not to continue supporting Miss Zhilan.”
On his outing tonight, the most common advice He Zhongguo received was to stop funding He Zhilan’s education.
They all said it was unnecessary for a girl to study so much and pointed out that he, He Zhongguo, had already provided for an adoptive daughter’s education until high school, which was unprecedented in the surrounding villages.
They also mentioned that He Teng and He Zhilan were married, so there was no need for He Zhilan to continue studying.
He Zhongguo had to restrain himself from arguing with them.
In his heart, he believed that He Zhilan was his pride.
She was a good student, and as her father, he should support her to go on to university.
He would not show favoritism just because He Zhilan was not his biological child.
“Dad, tomorrow, I’ll go to Aunt’s house in town.
That’s all we can do,” He Teng said after a while.
“Your aunt…” He Zhongguo sighed, “There seems to be no other way.” freeωebnovēl.c૦m
In fact, He Teng’s aunt, He Hongmei, is not a stingy person.
On the contrary, He Hongmei was always very good to her two older brothers.
Back in the day, He Hongmei was the first university student after the restoration of the college entrance examination and the first university student in the village.
Because her grades had always been good, even though the college entrance examination was suspended for some years, she continued to study.
Therefore, the two brothers, He Zhongguo and He Zhongjun, gritted their teeth and supported their only sister to go to school.
However, the He family was just so poor.
He Zhongguo had his own children, and He Zhongjun was married.
A year later, He Zhongjun’s wife was no longer willing to continue supporting her sister-in-law He Hongmei’s studies, and she started making a fuss.
Later, He Hongmei married her current husband during the summer vacation after her first year in university.
The rest of her university studies were funded by her husband’s family.
Still, He Zhongjun’s wife Li Chunhua always regarded herself as He Hongmei’s benefactor.
She always tried to gain some benefits from He Hongmei and kept saying that without her natal family’s support, He Hongmei would not have had such a good life today.
