So cool! Grab the scumbag's inheritance and become his aunt

Chapter 277 2 Childhood sweethearts

"Grandma, do you know my uncle?"

Upon learning that their elders actually knew each other, the young couple felt that they were destined to meet.

Su Jin waved his hand and said, "I saw him when I was a child. It's been so many years, there's no need to talk about that past."

Su Jin said there was no need to mention it. But Tang Ji said, "It turns out that the engagement between you and me is just a trivial matter that doesn't need to be mentioned."

"engagement?"

What a big melon!

Song Jingcheng and Shen He opened their eyes wide at the same time.

My aunt Cai Ruhong even covered her mouth and exclaimed on the spot: "Brother! Doctor Su is the one you were engaged to when you were a teenager?"

Hearing this, Song Jingcheng looked at Cai Ruhong and asked, "My aunt knows about this?"

Cai Ruhong nodded repeatedly, but seeing that her elder brother and Dr. Su didn't say anything, she didn't dare to gossip in front of the parties involved.

Shen He suddenly took Cai Ruhong's arm enthusiastically, smiling like a flower, and said in a sweet voice, "Aunt, let's go to the hot spring pool to chat."

"Okay."

Seeing that his wife had abducted his aunt who knew the inside story, Song Jingcheng quickly chased after her, leaving Tang Ji and Su Jin looking at each other in silence.

After a while, Tang Ji smiled bitterly and said with emotion: "Long time no see, Ajin."

"How have you been doing these years?"

Hearing the name "Ajin", Su Jin panicked.

Ever since her father passed away, no one in this world has called her Ah Jin anymore.

Su Jin smiled before she spoke, "My ex-husband plotted against me, my own flesh and blood betrayed me, my father passed away early because of his health problems in prison, and my only brother was taken to Su Country and we haven't seen each other for more than 60 years..."

"Tell me, is this a good life or a bad life?"

This bumpy life experience is a book of "To Live" for anyone.

Tang Ji was panicked when he heard this. His old eyes were filled with heartache. He murmured, "You have actually been through so many things?"

"you..."

Tang Ji felt bitter in his heart. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Have you ever thought about coming to find me?"

Unexpectedly, Su Jin said, "I've been there."

"You came to see me?" Tang Ji was stunned and asked subconsciously: "When did it happen?"

"Forty years ago."

Tang Ji frowned, but couldn't remember such a thing. "But I didn't receive any news that you were looking for me."

Su Jin frowned slightly, "You don't know?"

Tang Ji shook his head seriously and emphasized: "I didn't lie to you."

Su Jin showed a confused expression.

She recalled the past and told the story: "Forty years ago, I took several buses to enter Hecheng. I stayed in Hecheng for two days and asked along the way before I found the new address of the Tang family."

Su Jin glanced at Tang Ji and said, "I've also met your sister."

"My sister?" Tang Ji hesitated, "Azhi?"

Su Jin was not sure either. She said, "I don't know if that woman is Chu Zhi. Anyway, she lives in your house and claims to be your sister."

After thinking for a while, Tang Jicai asked, "What did you tell her?"

Su Jin still remembers what happened that day.

She told Tang Ji: "I told your sister who I was and asked if you were home. But your sister said you were dead."

"She told me that you followed your boss to Country M to attend an exchange meeting, and you had a car accident right after landing in a foreign country."

Tang Ji fell into deep thought.

Forty years ago, when the reform and opening up just started, he was indeed entrusted by his leader to go to Country M with his mentor to attend an exchange meeting.

Indeed, there was a car accident on the night we landed in Country M.

But the person who actually died in the car accident was his mentor, while he only suffered minor injuries and was hospitalized due to concussion.

The first thing Tang Ji did when he woke up that night was to make a transatlantic call home to let them know he was safe.

In other words, when his family learned about his car accident, they also knew that he was still alive.

So Chu Zhi lied to Su Jin!

Catching the mockery in Su Jin's eyes, Tang Ji realized that this matter might not be that simple.

Thinking of Chu Zhi's thoughts about him when she was young, Tang Ji had some bad guesses in his mind.

"Did Azhi say anything else to you?"

If it was just a sentence that he was dead, Ajin shouldn't have this attitude.

Seeing that nothing could be hidden from Tang Ji, Su Jin simply told the truth, "Yes."

"She told me to be more sensible and stop bothering you guys at the Tang family in the future."

"They also said that the Su family lineage has been cut off and the Su family is no longer a wealthy family. Since they have all fled to the countryside to become farmers, they should just farm the land honestly for the rest of their lives and don't try to use their past friendship to blackmail the Tang family."

These are Tang’s stepsister’s original words.

Forty years later, Su Jin still remembered it clearly, word for word.

Su Jin followed his father's last words before his death and stayed in the small mountain village, living the life of an ordinary person.

After staying in the countryside for a long time, she began to be afraid of big cities.

Heartbroken by Shen Zhenkun and his son, and criticized by the villagers, Su Jin wanted to escape from the countryside for the first time.

So, in the midsummer of that year, she locked the drugstore, changed into her most colorful floral shirt and black cloth pants, and mustered up the courage to board the minibus to Hecheng.

After much difficulty, she found the Tang family's address, but what greeted her was another blow.

But Tang Ji's death and the words he said to Tang Ji's sister were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely crushing Su Jin's young but already broken heart.

After leaving Hecheng, Su Jin returned to the small mountain village and worked honestly as a barefoot doctor.

In my spare time, I go out to look for medicinal herbs; when I’m busy, I harvest a big harvest and save lives at the same time.

Her heart gradually became numb.

Until Shen He appeared, like a stream of sweet mountain spring water, slowly soaking her long-dead heart.

Tang Ji, who learned the truth, couldn't help but look dejected, "I didn't know you went to see me, and I didn't know that Azhi deceived you and said such heartbreaking nonsense to you!"

"Ajin, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged. This is my negligence..."

"It is my fault."

In fact, when Su Jin heard Tang Ji questioning her why she didn't look for him all these years, she guessed that there was another hidden story behind the incident of forty years ago.

But it all passed.

No matter how big the obstacle was, she could climb over it by herself.

Seeing that Tang Ji was still upset about it, she tried to enlighten him: "What did you do wrong? This is just a misunderstanding. It will be fine once you talk it out."

"Besides, our engagement was originally just a joke between our parents."

"Besides, something happened to the Su family. Thanks to Uncle Tang's secret help, my father was able to survive until the day he was released from prison."

If it weren't for Mr. Tang's help behind the scenes, Su Qi might have been tortured to death in prison long ago.

Su Jin is always grateful to the Tang family.

"The Tang family has done a favor to the Su family, and I should be content. I was rude to rashly go to Hecheng to find you that year."

"Besides, the one who lied to me was your sister, not you or your father. You and your son have been very kind to the Su family, so I don't blame you."

Su Jin is an open-minded woman who can always adjust her mentality and live optimistically.

If her mentality was a little worse, she would not live to be eighty years old.

"Let's go to the hot springs."

*

Through Cai Ruhong's narration, Shen He and Song Jingcheng finally found out the past of Su Jin and Tang Ji.

original.

Tang Ji's biological mother is a native of Kyoto, and his father also works in a Kyoto research institute. Tang Ji was born and raised in Kyoto, and he and Su Jin are childhood sweethearts.

Tang Ji's father is a physics professor who studied abroad and is a scientific research expert.

Influenced by his father, Tang Ji developed a strong interest in physics since he was a child. When he was ten years old, he set two major goals for himself in life:

One is to go to country M for further studies, serve the motherland in the future, and devote your life to the science of the motherland!

The second is to marry Ajin after returning from school!

Tang Jinian is two years older than Su Jin. He grew up with Su Jin and liked Su Jin very much. He would run to Su Jin's house whenever he had time.

His parents saw that he liked Su Jin, so they joked with Su Qi, saying that since the two children had such a good relationship, they might as well arrange a marriage for them.

Although Su Qi is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, his ideas are not traditional.

He said, "It is up to our children to decide their own marriages. It all depends on which young man has the ability to marry our little girl Su Jin."

As soon as Su Qi finished speaking, seven-year-old Su Jin said, "Brother Tang Ji is so awesome! Dad, I want to marry Brother Tang Ji in the future!"

Just like that, the two families arranged a marriage for their children.

When he was twelve years old, Tang Ji was selected by the senior leader because of his outstanding talent. As an exception, he was allowed to join the youth scientific research team and go to study in Country M.

A total of eight people were selected in their group, and they all signed a confidentiality agreement before going. But after completing their studies, only Tang Ji and another girl named Song Ning chose to return home to serve their country.

Before leaving, Tang Ji specially set aside a day to take Su Jin to stroll around the then Kyoto city for a whole day...

And that day became the last memory of Tang Ji and Su Jin.

When Tang Ji returned from his studies at the age of 23, he learned that the Su family had encountered an accident ten years ago and his uncle Su and his two children had been missing for a long time.

His father Tang Yu was also imprisoned during those years and was unable to take care of himself, so how could he help the Su family?

The two families who used to have the closest relationship completely cut off contact.

"...I have been married to the Tang family for forty-eight years. Before I got married, I heard that the Tang family had an older brother who returned from studying abroad and was engaged in scientific research."

Cai Ruhong held a cup of iced lemon tea in her hand. She felt a little tipsy after soaking in the hot spring for so long, so she stood up and walked to the stairs and sat down.

After taking a sip of the cool lemon tea, Cai Ruhong continued, "At that time, everyone was discussing whether the eldest son of the Tang family had a physical illness because he didn't get married..."

Adults all understand what this illness means.

"After hearing so much of that, I began to suspect that my eldest brother was really ill. It was not until I married into the Tang family and got along with him for a long time that I realized that my eldest brother was not ill, he was just waiting for someone."

After hearing this, what else did Song Jingcheng and Shen He not understand?

Shen He and Song Jingcheng looked at each other, both unable to hide their shock, "So your uncle never got married, not because he was a scientific nerd, but because he was waiting for my grandma?"

Perhaps it was the hot steam from the hot spring that misted Shen He's eyes, and she actually felt like crying.

She leaned on Song Jingcheng's shoulder and murmured with regret: "If my grandmother hadn't missed Mr. Tang Ji, her life would have been very different."

This story is so heavy that Song Jingcheng also felt sad.

He held Shen He's hand and sighed, "The cruelest thing about life is that there is no if."

"What are you talking about?" Su Jin came to the hot spring pool.

Shen He and Song Jingcheng quickly walked over to support Su Jin and brought her to the hot spring pool. "Grandma, there is a step here. Sit here."

After Su Jin sat down, she saw the fruit tea in Cai Ruhong's hand and said, "What is she drinking? Give me a cup too."

"Grandma, I'll get it for you!"

Song Jingcheng went there happily.

Cai Ruhong joked, "Doctor Su, this child is really filial to you."

Su Jin did not deny it. She said, "I am old, and he has only been filial to me for a few years."

"Look at what you said." Cai Ruhong saw her elder brother coming over, and she smiled and said, "Doctor Su is almost 80 years old, right? But he looks really strong, better than me."

Cai Ruhong is almost seventy years old, but Su Jin looks to be in similar physical condition to her.

It is indeed very difficult for an eighty-year-old man to have clear eyesight, no leg pain, and even a hunched back.

"I'm different from you." Su Jin stretched out his hands in front of Cai Ruhong, "Look at my hands, then look at your hands."

Cai Ruhong's hands are also the hands of an elderly person. Although they have wrinkles, her skin is very white and her skin looks delicate at first glance.

Only those who have lived a life of luxury and have never done any hard work can have a pair of hands like this.

The skin on Su Jin's hands is yellower and rougher, and even his finger joints are thicker than Cai Ruhong's.

At times like this, you can tell at a glance that your hands have been holding too many hoes and doing too much farm work.

At the bank of the pond, Tang Ji looked through his glasses at Su Jin's hands. He suddenly asked Cai Ruhong, "I'll go get some fruit. Ruhong, Ajin, what do you want to eat?"

Cai Ruhong was flattered, "Big Brother, you come to take a hot spring bath, I'll get it!"

Cai Ruhong hurried ashore and headed straight for the buffet restaurant.

damned!

The old peacock of their Tang family is about to spread its tail!

The old guy who didn't understand the ways of the world actually came to his senses and knew to give fruits to the ladies.

Just as Tang Ji was about to get out of the hot spring pool, Su Jin reminded him, "Take it easy, don't fall. When people get old, their bones lack calcium, and a fall can kill them."

"Jingcheng's mother just died, don't let him lose his uncle now."

Tang Ji silently retracted the leg that had already entered the water.

After Shen He and Song Jingcheng came back, he entered the hot spring pool with the help of the two young men.

Tang Ji sat next to Song Jingcheng, looking at Su Jin from a distance.

But Su Jin didn't even look at him.

She enjoyed the food that Shen He and Song Jingcheng fed her, and commented from time to time: "This drink is delicious. I'll get some of the same kind and put it in the refrigerator at home."

The older Su Jin gets, the more he lets himself go.

KFC, McDonald's, iced cola and white wine, she eats whatever she wants.

In her words, only by eating and drinking well can you live to be ninety-eight.

Tang Ji saw Su Jin eating and drinking with the young people, so he reminded her quietly: "Ah Jin, the weather is cold, drink less iced drinks, be careful of catching a cold..."

Su Jin asked Tang Ji: "How old are you?"

Tang Ji asked and answered, "I am two years older than you, and I am 80 this year."

Nodding, Su Jin suddenly said, "I know a boy named Xiao Ming. His grandfather lived to be 103 years old. Do you know why?"

Tang Ji has been engaged in research all his life and is respected by all the young people, but he really doesn't know these Internet memes.

Tang Ji seemed to be thinking: "You are a kind-hearted doctor, so you saved him?"

Su Jin was about to laugh, "Because he never meddles in other people's business."

No matter how dumb Tang Ji was, he could tell that Su Jin was mocking him.

He suddenly fell silent.

Shen He and Song Jingcheng were listening nearby, not daring to breathe.
