Chapter 464 Yuan Sanfeng's Past
After getting off work in the afternoon, Su Nuannuan went home early.

Because she needed to go back to the village to ask her older sisters about Chu Mingkai, Su Nuannuan wanted to stay there for the night.

In the past, Chu Mingzhou would definitely have gone back with him.

However, he still has two children at home who need care, so he can't go back with Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan looked at the aggrieved man, patted him on the shoulder with amusement, and said.

"I'll go back and stay for one night. You stay home and take good care of Da Bao and Er Bao."

Although Chu Mingzhou was reluctant to part with Su Nuannuan, he eventually agreed.

At the same time, he secretly vowed that once his two children were capable of living independently, he would definitely kick them out of the house.

The two babies, still infants, had no idea that their father had planned to make them move out shortly after their birth.

Su Nuannuan rode her bicycle, heading home.

On the way, she also met Liu Zhaodi.

Liu Zhaodi is now free of any gloom and exudes a cheerful aura.

Upon seeing Su Nuannuan, she waved and greeted her happily.

"Nuan Nuan, it's been a long time."

Su Nuannuan stopped the car and said with a smile.

"It's been a long time. What have you been up to all this time?"

Liu Zhaodi was a little embarrassed and said.

"Dalun enrolled me in the textile factory's night school; I'm preparing for the junior high entrance exam. I have to go home now."

Looking at Liu Zhaodi's energetic back, Su Nuannuan felt that no one could act faster than Liu Zhaodi.

After thinking it over, Su Nuannuan got back on her bicycle.

When we arrived in the village, smoke was already rising from every household.

Although resources are still scarce now, it is much better than in 59.

Many people in the village are now able to have enough to eat.

When Su Nuannuan returned home, Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian were picking vegetables in the yard.

Upon seeing Su Nuannuan return, Su Jinjin was the first to greet her.

"Nuan Nuan, why are you back so late?"

Su Nuannuan stopped the car, and Su Mianmian handed her a bowl of honey water.

Feeling thirsty, Su Nuannuan took a deep breath before speaking.

“Mingzhou has something to ask you, and it wasn’t appropriate for him to contact you, so I came back.”

Upon hearing that Chu Mingzhou had something to ask them, Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian quickly realized what had happened.

The two exchanged a glance, and Su Mianmian spoke.

"Nuan Nuan, Mom and the others went to the back mountain to catch rabbits. Come here and tell us slowly. We will definitely not hide anything we know from you."

A big smile appeared on Su Nuannuan's face.

"Row."

After sitting down, Su Nuannuan asked Chu Mingkai about his girlfriend.

"Elder sister, second sister, is it true that Mingzhou's second brother's wife is a divorced woman with a child?"

Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian knew that Su Nuannuan was going to talk about this. They looked at each other and then nodded together.

Su Nuannuan hesitated for a moment before answering.

"Was he there willingly? No, I mean, did he like that...that woman?"

Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian were silent for a while before Su Mianmian finally spoke, saying, "Nuannuan, to tell you the truth, Mingkai and Sanfeng have already made up their minds before they've even met."

"What!"

Su Nuannuan's forehead was full of question marks.

What does it mean to make a commitment to someone before even meeting them in person?

Is someone forcing Chu Mingkai to marry a wife?
Thinking of this, Su Nuannuan's anger surged to her head.

"Second sister, explain yourself! Was someone coercing second brother?"

When Su Nuannuan is angry, her little face turns stern. Having been exposed to knowledge from two different worlds, she exudes an imposing aura when she is expressionless.

Upon seeing this, Su Jinjin quickly explained to Su Nuannuan.

“Nuan Nuan, you’ve misunderstood. Chu Mingkai did it voluntarily. Moreover, it was he who applied to his superiors to take care of that mother and daughter for the rest of their lives.”

Su Nuannuan: ? ? ?

Hearing that Chu Mingkai's actions were voluntary, Su Nuannuan's anger subsided considerably. She looked at Su Jinjin somewhat embarrassed and said...

"Big sister, I'm sorry. I wasn't angry at you just now."

Seeing that Su Nuannuan was no longer angry, Su Jinjin breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself.

This dog's temper is just like when it was a puppy.

Su Mianmian was perceptive and naturally knew what Su Nuannuan wanted to know.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Su Mianmian finally spoke.

Last year, Mingkai and his squad went on a mission, and Mingkai's captain sacrificed himself to protect him. That captain's name was Yuan Ming, and he had a wife and a daughter back in his hometown. Since then, Mingkai has sent his monthly salary to the poor mother and daughter.

Sanfeng was a child bride in the Yuan family and was uneducated. After Yuan Ming passed away, the family lost its source of income. Under these circumstances, the mother and daughter were still doing alright.

After all, Yuan Ming left behind a considerable amount of compensation, plus the salary Mingkai sent her every month. Every year, the mother and daughter were able to save a large sum of money.

However, Mingkai soon received a letter from Sanfeng saying that the money he sent had all been taken by Yuanming's eldest brother's family. Under the pretext of doing what was best for the children and taking care of his younger brother's orphan, he took all of Yuanming's pension and the money Mingkai had sent.

He took all the money but didn't fulfill his obligations. He only gave the mother and daughter a small bag of mixed grains each month, which wasn't even enough for them to eat.

When things became unbearable, Sanfeng contacted Mingkai and asked him to stop sending money.

It was only at this time that Mingkai discovered the captain's family was being bullied and mistreated back in their hometown. After consulting with Sanfeng, Mingkai decided to bring them over to take care of the mother and daughter.

Su Nuannuan pursed her lips, unsure of what to say.

Let's talk about how Chu Mingkai shouldn't have to bear the burden of other people's fates. However, Sanfeng's husband sacrificed himself to save him.

Moreover, Sanfeng is truly pitiful.

Even without Yuan Ming's vicious older brother, there would be others who would bully the orphans and widows.

Families without an adult male are bound to be bullied. Not everyone in the village is a good person, not to mention that Sanfeng has her husband's pension and the monthly salary sent by Chu Mingkai.

She's like a piece of fatty meat; everyone wants to take a bite.

Even if people initially let her go out of pity, they will definitely have different thoughts later on.

It's really hard to say.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan didn't speak, Su Mianmian said something else.

“We met Sanfeng when we came here. She seemed like a gentle and family-oriented woman, but she was a bit timid.”

Su Jinjin nodded in agreement.

"Yes, actually, the people of Sanfeng are quite nice. And I also heard that when Yuan Ming had his accident, a young girl from the cultural troupe cried so hard. The aunties in the courtyard said that they had seen that young girl going to the beach with Yuan Ming several times."

hiss!
Su Nuannuan gasped.

"Big sister, you can't say things like that!"
