Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: Birth Mother Visits 5

Guan Yu was very worried about his and his brother’s predicament.

Many of the local elders were well aware of their origins, but as long as they didn’t speak out, nobody would take issue with it.

Now it was different, with their birth mother and others coming to them, exposing the past that everyone had been reluctant to mention, the shackles of their "bad elements" would be promptly placed on him and his brother, making it difficult for them to be as carefree as before.

Thinking of the drastic changes that class status could bring, a hint of fear appeared on Guan Yu’s face.

Like the Lu Family, because of the landlord status, even though Lu Jiang was a revolutionary soldier, he also had a few years of hardship. And them? According to his brother, it was because their father had studied abroad and was deemed a spy, an agent, convicted of treason!

Sabotaging the revolution could result in criticism and struggle, injuries or even death. Suffering torture, let alone the crime of treason?

Guan Cheng patted his shoulder, "We’ll deal with problems as they arise; there’s nothing to be afraid of. Ayu, life was so hard and we suffered so much when we were little, but we made it through. Now that we’re grown up, what is there to fear? Of course, we cannot agree to their shameless demands. Even if repaying her for giving birth to us, we need not pay with our lives. From the moment we were born, our fate was no longer up to her to decide. Besides, class status is not the problem, you don’t need to worry. When the time comes, I’ll ask our granduncle to step in and resolve this problem for good."

At this point, a fierce light shone in Guan Cheng’s eyes, with a hint of murderous intent.

Suddenly, Guan Yu said, "Brother, we can deny it, can’t we? Reject her. We were so young at the time, it’s completely understandable that we don’t remember the past. Why acknowledge it? Why do we have to respond to their provocations by acknowledging it? If we deny it, doesn’t it put an end to all of it? Righteously, we can drive them away."

Upon hearing Guan Yu’s words, everyone except Guan Cheng was stunned.

Exactly, why acknowledge it? Wouldn’t denial settle it?

In this vast world, nothing is impossible, and people do look alike. Names are not unique either.

Even if Guan Cheng’s birth mother and people like Wang Xinlai swear that Guan Cheng and Guan Yu are the descendants of the Guan Family, what does it matter? They themselves don’t remember anything about this, and they know nothing of the Guan Family!

"Yes, Acheng, I think Ayu makes a lot of sense," Wang Fengqiao spoke up. Seeing Guan Cheng started to speak, she quickly waved her hand to stop him, "I know, Acheng, you don’t want to deny it because you keep thinking about the identity of the Guan Family. You’re afraid if the situation improves in the future and you acknowledge this identity, you’ll be ridiculed. Ridiculed for not admitting when you were young that you were of the Guan Family, for not acknowledging your birth mother, being accused of fearing death and being unfilial. Yet when you grow up, you acknowledge it again, and it becomes a stain on your life."

Guan Cheng nodded, "Aunt grandmother, you’re right. A man must have his dos and don’ts. To deny being a member of the Guan Family today, it’s still somewhat acceptable for Ayu since he was not aware of the existence of the Guan Family as he was not born yet when the family fell, but for me, denial is not an option. I have never been ashamed of being a member of the Guan Family; I hope someday to vindicate my grandfather and father."

Remembering Lu Tianjun’s mother who was kind-hearted while alive, Wang Fengqiao couldn’t help but feel pity for these brothers, "It’s not about denying, Acheng, I’m not asking you to deny it, just to say that you don’t remember the past."

Suddenly, Guan Cheng realized her meaning, "You mean?"
