Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Birth Mother Visits 9
Chen Dazhuang grabbed him, lowered his voice, and said, "All the kids are at my place, cooking with your aunt. Don’t go looking elsewhere, and quietly let Guan Cheng know what everyone just talked about."
Wang Dachun nodded in acknowledgment and went to Wang Fengqiao’s house to find Guan Cheng and Guan Yu, conveying Chen Dazhuang’s message to him.
"Brother, the elders from our brigade are really kind. We hadn’t even approached them, yet they already came up with solutions for us and kept spreading the word among the crowd, just like the ideas we had thought of." Even though Guan Yu wasn’t as smart and wise as his brother, he knew that the old men speaking those words in the crowd meant well for them. No wonder his brother often told him that there were mostly good people in the Wanglou Brigade.
Guan Cheng patted his younger brother on the head, "Right, although there are bad people in the world, there are even more good people, always living around us."
Guan Cheng himself was deeply moved. He hadn’t anticipated that before he could show up, people like Elder Lu and the others had already spoken out, probably to give him a heads-up so he could follow their lead in resolving the current troubles.
Sure enough, as soon as he reached the open space in front of the office building, someone called him over to Elder Lu.
Elder Lu squinted his old eyes and whispered to him, "Guan Cheng, remember this: you and your brother are hardworking people cultivated with great effort by our Wanglou Brigade. You have nothing to do with that damn Guan Family, understand?"
"Right, you have no connection with the Guan Family. You’ll have to say the same thing in front of your great uncle," another added.
"Our brigade has finally trained up a capable doctor who’s just as good as those in city hospitals. Some old woman who hasn’t contributed a thing thinks she can just come and pick the fruits of our labor, dreaming too beautifully, isn’t she?" another chimed in.
A group of middle-aged and elderly people all murmured, lowering their voices as they talked.
Guan Cheng looked bewildered. "Guan Family? What Guan Family?"
"Yeah, Elder Lu, what’s this about the Guan Family? I don’t know any Guan Family. I belong to the Lu Family," Guan Yu said.
Hearing the brothers’ words and seeing their expressions, Elder Lu laughed, his heart settling down. "Even better that you don’t know the Guan Family, it shows that our hardworking people are truly praiseworthy!"
Just then, a middle-aged woman in tattered clothes and disheveled appearance burst out from the office, heading straight for Guan Cheng.
"Guan Cheng, Guan Cheng, you’ve grown up so much, just as I imagined, you look so much like your father!" The middle-aged woman said, reaching out to grab the hands of Guan Cheng and Guan Yu, her face covered with excited tears.
Guan Cheng and Guan Yu simultaneously stepped back, saying in unison, "Auntie, who are you?"
Like father? Guan Cheng found it laughable.
The one who resembled their father had always been Guan Yu, which was to say he looked like their aunt, and therefore bore a close resemblance to Lu Tianzhi in his facial features.
As for himself, according to descriptions from Father Lu and Elder Xu and his wife, he didn’t resemble his father or his mother. But as an adult, he looked strikingly like his grandfather from a generation earlier, with similar appearance and temperament, almost as if his grandfather had been reborn, while his father and aunt took after their grandmother.
The middle-aged woman, taken aback by the brothers’ response, suddenly became furious. She tried to poke Guan Cheng’s forehead, but missed due to the brothers stepping back repeatedly, and of course, the difference in height, which made her fly into a rage. "I am your mother, you little brats! Living the good life now, so you don’t recognize your own mother, is that it?"
Guan Yu angrily said, "How can you insult people? Don’t falsely claim relatives. I don’t have a mother; I’m an orphan. I’ve never seen my mother since I was a kid. My aunt is my mother, and she’s a soldier in the army!"
