Cheng Xiang said to the old man: "If you are just worried about Cheng Ningning, I can tell you that she is doing well and my father loves her very much."
When the old man heard this, he nodded happily and raised his hands to bow, as if to express his gratitude.
Cheng Xiang turned to Zhang Qingxiang and asked, "What about you? Why did you spy on me?"
Zhou Tianlei and the old man also looked at Zhang Qingxiang at the same time.
Zhang Qingxiang was stunned and said, "I, I also went to see if it was Ning Ning."
It was obvious that he was lying, and Cheng Xiang saw through it at a glance.
"Have you ever come back since Cheng Ningning left?" Cheng Xiang asked, staring at Zhang Qingxiang.
The old man beside him shook his head in disappointment.
But Zhang Qingxiang's eyes were a little erratic and he said, "I haven't seen him again."
Cheng Xiang glanced at Zhang Qingxiang and said, "It's natural for a brother to love his sister, but as a human being, kindness is a good thing. Don't be too naive, as it is easy for others to manipulate you at will."
"Now that you know that I am not Cheng Ningning, there is no need to monitor me in the future. If you are concerned about Cheng Ningning, I can give you the address and you can visit her."
Zhang Qingxiang lowered his head and said nothing.
Cheng Xiang took out five large unity cards from his bag and handed them to the old man: "This is the money for the bathtub. Please keep it."
The old man waved his hands and made a series of gestures.
Zhang Qingxiang translated: "My father said that you are Ning Ning's sister and cannot accept your money."
Cheng wanted to put the money into the old man's hand and said: "One code equals one code. She is her and I am me. After you finish it, please help me deliver it. I don't need to tell you the address, right?"
Cheng Xiang smiled, but the Zhang family and his son blushed with shame.
Zhou Tianlei took Cheng Xiang out and was about to start the car when Zhang Qingxiang ran out and stopped them.
Cheng Xiangyou looked at him: "Is something wrong?"
Zhang Qingxiang stood in front of Cheng Xiang, rubbed his hands awkwardly and asked, "You just called Ningning, Cheng Ningning, did she change her last name?"
Cheng Xiang answered him calmly: "The day after she arrived at our house, she went to the police station and changed her surname."
Zhang Qingxiang looked at Cheng Xiang in shock and murmured: "She said she had always been Zhang Ningning. She was forced to take her away by her mother, not voluntarily."
"I don't know if she is voluntary, but she..." Cheng Xiang thought of the slanderous words Cheng Ningning said to her father in the countryside in front of her father and her. At this time, she really couldn't bear to say it to hurt this kind-hearted person. The honest old man said, "But she is living a good life in the city, so you don't have to worry."
Zhang Qingxiang nodded silently and said nothing.
Zhou Tianlei came over to help Cheng Xiang put on his helmet. When Cheng Xiang got on the motorcycle, he turned back to Zhang Qingxiang and said, "Have you never seen her again?"
There was a hint of panic on Zhang Qingxiang's face.
Cheng Xiang turned around, patted Zhou Tianlei on the shoulder, and motioned for him to drive.
As the car drove away, Zhang Qingxiang's tense body relaxed.
At this time, someone behind him tapped his shoulder. He turned around and saw that it was his father.
"Dad" Zhang Qingxiang shouted.
The old man gestured to him.
Zhang Qingxiang frowned and shook his head and said, "It's okay, dad. I just asked if Ning Ning is okay there? She said it's fine."
Zhang Qingxiang pondered for a moment and then asked: "Dad, do you miss Ning Ning? Do you want to go see her?"
The old man's eyes brightened for a moment, then he downcast and shook his head, gesturing and saying: "She just needs to live a good life. She has been strong and competitive since she was a child, and has never been wronged.
I was worried that someone would bully her when she came to the city and she was unfamiliar with the place. Today I saw that this girl was quite kind, and I thought she would be nice to Ning Ning as well.
Let's not disturb her. "
After the old man made the gesture, he turned around and slowly entered the door.
Zhang Qingxiang stood there with mixed feelings in his heart.
A few days ago, he received a call from Ning Ning at the brick kiln and made an appointment to meet in the city.
That day, Ning Ning wore a bright gauze skirt and had a fashionable curly hair perm in the city. She was completely no longer as rustic as when she was in the village.
Although Ning Ning has been good-looking since she was a child and was one of the top beauties in the village, she is completely different from what she is now.
It was so shiny that Zhang Qingxiang didn't dare to look directly at it.
"Brother Qingxiang." Cheng Ningning called him sweetly.
Zhang Qingxiang felt his whole body tremble: "Ning Ning, why did you come to me?"
It had been seven or eight years since they left the village and they had never contacted his sister. When she suddenly contacted him, he didn't dare to delay at all and went straight to the city.
"How are you and dad now?" Cheng Ningning asked with concern.
"It's good, but dad misses you very much." Zhang Qingxiang replied naively.
"Brother, I miss you too. It was my mother who forced me to leave. She said that if I didn't go with her, she would die.
I don't want to leave our family. You and our father love me so much. How about being here...? "Cheng Ningning looked aggrieved and hesitated to speak.
Zhang Qingxiang looked at her aggrieved look and asked with concern: "Ning Ning, what's wrong? Are they bullying you?"
When Cheng Ningning heard Zhang Qingxiang's question, she squeezed out a few tears and said, "When I first came here, they forced me to change my surname. If I didn't go, they beat me. I'm the daughter of our Zhang family. Who knows?" Do you want to be the daughter of their Cheng family?
And their biological daughter, who couldn’t see that I came from the countryside, scolded me and insulted me at every turn. I didn’t dare to say anything. I hid and cried secretly, missing you and dad.”
Cheng Ningning said with tears in her eyes.
This aggrieved little appearance made Zhang Qingxiang heartbroken.
Although he is an orphan adopted by his father, he has no blood relationship with this sister.
But when he was brought home by his father and saw this delicate and frail sister.
Just treat this younger sister like a eldest lady and be willing to be her loyal dog.
She didn't like anyone who scolded her or bullied her. As long as she looked at him, he would rush up and beat that person.
Others called him Cheng Ningning's bitch, but he was happy with it.
That year, that restless woman betrayed her father and took her sister away.
He once sneaked into the city and wanted to see his sister, but he was met by this woman.
The woman said to him: "Your sister has flown up the branch and you can't reach her.
Look at yourself, don't you know you don't even deserve to look at her?
If you do her best, don't bother her again. "
Since then, he has never seen Ning Ning again.
But after they left, he and his father became the jokes of the village.
Those who had been beaten by him came to laugh at him: "You are a bastard that no one wants. You find a master and you become a bastard. Now that the master doesn't want you, you become a bastard that no one wants. Hahahahahaha "
Yes, he was always the one abandoned. No matter how others scolded him, there was no fluctuation in his heart.
He just wants to go home and live a peaceful life with his father.
