The Pentium Era - South to North

"At that time, Zhang Chen, do you know how desperate I was?" Tan Shuzhen said, "When my mother found out, she could only cry. She had no choice but to cry with me. Apart from crying, she All that's left is to curse the pole, this harmful person has already left, and he still wants to hurt people like this."

"You all are not here, and I really have no friends. I really have no place to talk. In the troupe, only Lao Gui can talk to me. I couldn't help it that day, so I told Lao Gui about my situation. .

"Lao Gui was not surprised after hearing this. He told me that if I really had no other choice, he could help me. The way he could help me was that we get married, so that when the child is born, it will be me and Lao Gui. I have a child with a registered permanent residence, and I won’t be fired from my job.

"When Lao Gui first told me, I was frightened, but when I got home and thought about it, I actually had no choice. Other than that, what other choice did I have? Where in Hainan did you die at that time? I don’t even know, what should I do? Apart from the path that Lao Gui helped me think of, what else can I do?

"I tied my stomach every day because I was afraid of suffocating the child in my belly. Even if he was suffocated to death, I still had no way out. There was only one way out.

"I told my parents about Lao Gui's idea, and they also think this is the best way. Besides, they don't hate Lao Gui in the first place. They think Lao Gui is better than a pole and more reliable. My mother Lao Gui came to the house, and everyone spread out to explain the matter clearly. My parents asked Lao Gui to promise that he would not dislike the children I gave birth to in the future.

"Lao Gui told them that after Zhenzhen and I get married, Zhenzhen's child will be our child. Even if I want to have a child, there is no fertility target. I will definitely treat him like my own child. As long as Zhenzhen Jane promised me something.

"My mother asked him what was going on, and he said that as long as Zhenzhen promised not to tell the child that I was not his biological father, at least until I died.

"Of course my parents and I agreed. After agreeing, we went to register the next day, then ran to Lao Ding to get a certificate, and went to the family planning office to apply for a birth certificate. Lao Ding even accompanied us and went to the family planning office to find an acquaintance. , the birth certificate was issued very quickly. Didn’t I have to take a pregnancy test first? At that time, Old Ding..."

Tan Shuzhen laughed as she spoke, and Zhang Chen asked, "Why are you laughing?"

"How could Lao Ding hate you and Zhuangzi so much at that time? As soon as he heard that Laogui and I were getting married instead of Zhuangzi, he was so happy. Pidianpidian helped us. After getting the birth certificate, I I felt relieved and began to slowly let go of my stomach.”

Zhang Chen also laughed and said: "Yes, at that time, I had the intention of killing Ding Baigou. For no particular reason, I just felt that I couldn't stand this bastard. To him, he probably thought that we were old I was causing trouble for him and delaying his future. Now that everything goes as planned, he doesn't have so many prejudices against me. As for me, I don't have much in the first place, I'm just young and energetic.

"Tan Shuzhen, go on."

"When Lao Gui and I had our wedding, we told the public that I was four months pregnant. In fact, I was already nine months pregnant. Why did we do this? I just didn't want people to know. Isn't this child Lao Gui's? If we said that I was already nine months pregnant, Months old, everyone in the theater troupe knows that this kid must be a mastermind and cannot be concealed.

"After the wedding, we took leave and went to Lao Gui's house, saying that the countryside was quiet and suitable for raising a baby. Anyway, there was nothing going on in the troupe at that time, and Lao Gui was still the deputy leader. Lao Ding told us, You can rest as long as you want. Anyway, the troupe is freeing up, so just keep on freeing up.

"Lao Gui has a cousin who works in the obstetrics and gynecology department of a hospital in Lanxi. It was in his cousin's hospital that I gave birth to Nannan. After Nannan was born, my cousin gave us the birth certificate when she was issuing it. The year and month were deliberately not written on the couplet registering the household registration.

"After Nan Nan was born, I stayed with Lao Gui for half a year before returning to Yongcheng. When we went to the police station to register for residence, we pushed back the year and month on Nan Nan's birth certificate by five months. At that time, there was no computer or Internet connection. Who would care about this kind of thing? Nannan’s household registration was just registered.

"When Nannan was a child, others said she was very sensible and old-fashioned. Who knew she was actually five months older, haha! Okay, Zhang Chen, I've said all I want to say, do you have anything else to ask? ?I’ll answer you while I’m still in the mood.”

Zhang Chen was still confused and asked, "Zhangzi has written you so many letters, but you really haven't received any of them?"

"Of course, Zhang Chen, if I receive it and know where you are, can I not look for you? I am carrying a child with a pole. At that time, if I really want to leave, even my mother will not stop me, right? ." Tan Shuzhen said.

"Then where did these letters go?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Only a ghost knows. At that time, the troupe looked so weird that the postman probably didn't even bother to deliver it. He had to climb such a high altitude. The postman might have seen the troupe's letter and just threw it into the trash can."

When Tan Shuzhen said that, she subconsciously looked in the direction of the mourning hall. She did not tell Zhang Chen. In fact, she knew that these letters had been received and hidden by Feng Laogui. Feng Laogui sat in the troupe's office every day, and the old hen It's like hatching an egg just to wait for these letters.

Tan Shuzhen sighed secretly. She felt that there was no need to talk about this matter now. The old nobleman was gone. Why bother to smear his face anymore? Let it become her own secret and rot in her belly. .

Tan Shuzhen didn't tell Zhang Chen that on the day before her wedding, she saw those letters. She read every letter and burst into tears. For a moment, she even thought about coming down from Gaohang. Go to the station, take a bus to Hangzhou, then take a train to Guangzhou, then go to Hai'an, cross the sea to Haicheng, and follow the route they took as mentioned in the pole letter.

There was no way she was going to fly, she couldn't afford a plane ticket.

However, Tan Shuzhen was discouraged again when she thought of having such a big belly after arriving in Haicheng. At this time, she had registered her marriage with Feng Laogui for several months and had already lived together. Everyone knew that she had a big belly. The child inside was Feng Laogui's. What could she say after seeing the pole?

At that time, there was no such thing as genetic testing. Tan Shuzhen felt that even if she met Liu Ligan, she would not be able to argue. What's more, he didn't know whether he still remembered Liu Ligan after not being together for such a long time.

Tan Shuzhen just sat on the ground, crying and hesitating, until Feng Laogui realized that something was wrong, ran over, opened the door, and saw everything inside.

Feng Laogui knelt down in front of Tan Shuzhen.

"It's really possible that it's just some combination of circumstances. Alas, it's also my fault that you and the pole didn't get along."

Zhang Chen sighed. He thought about it. No wonder Tan Shuzhen would be so angry when she pointed at Lao Liu's nose and cursed in Sanya. She slapped her because she was scolding her own grandfather.

No wonder, when Xiang Nan was admitted to the film school, Tan Shuzhen would think of inviting the pole's parents to dinner. For so many years, Tan Shuzhen knew that her parents and pole's parents would not deal with each other, so she still wanted to bring them together. Eating New Year’s Eve dinner is really well-intentioned.

"Speaking of Lao Gui, it's pitiful. After marrying me, he really couldn't even have a child of his own. Even if he got divorced later, according to the policy, he still couldn't have children unless he found a childless woman. ." Tan Shuzhen sighed, "I don't know if it has something to do with the fact that he never got married."

"Then after you and Lao Gui divorced, why didn't you accept the pole when you arrived in Hangzhou?" Zhang Chen asked.

Tan Shuzhen smiled bitterly: "How can I accept it, looking at the pole and Nannan, they are obviously father and daughter, but they have to be dangled in front of me like two enemies? Rather than letting them really become enemies, it is better to keep a little distance between them.

"One more thing is that I always feel unsteady about this person, Zhang Chen. Do you know what I am most worried about?"

"What is it?" Zhang Chen asked.

"I'm worried that just because he's nice to Nan Nan, and for the sake of my temporary gesture, if we really get married, he will start to dislike Nan Nan. At that time, what do you want me to do?" Tan Shuzhen asked, "I don't I believe that he will not mind Lao Gui and will really like Lao Gui and my children."

Zhang Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and understood: "You also worked hard."

"Our generation is over when it's over. I don't want Nannan to suffer anymore." Tan Shuzhen said, "I can have nothing, but I don't want Nannan to have no father. In Nannan's heart, Lao Gui is her father. I If I tell her the real situation and tell her that Lao Gui is not her father, I think Nannan will collapse.

"By the way, Zhang Chen, can you promise me something?"

"you say."

"You know this, but can you not tell Nannan? No, no, and don't tell anyone else. I think that after this stage is over, Nannan will not be so It's painful, so I'll find a chance to tell her slowly," Tan Shuzhen said.

Zhang Chen said yes, I promise you.

Tan Shuzhen stood up and said let's go and see Lao Gui.

The two people walked back slowly, walked up the steps, and passed the three mourning halls in front, where fierce fighting was going on. They walked all the way to Feng Laogui's mourning hall. When they saw them coming in, Lao Yang shouted:

"Come on, Zhang Chen, Zhenzhen, come over for a drink and a barbecue."

On the table, the playing cards have been taken away, and there are several vest bags of barbecue piled on it. Next to the table, there are several cases of beer. These were probably bought by some unlucky guy who lost at cards.

"I'll give you a stick of incense first."

As she spoke, Tan Shuzhen walked over, took three incense sticks, lit them, bowed to Laogui, and muttered something. Zhang Chen stood behind and couldn't hear clearly what she was saying.
