Chapter 375: Chapter 385: Bringing Warmth to the Old Workers

On the way back to the county town, Su Hai kept frowning and didn’t speak. He thought hard about something that had flashed through his mind just now, but no matter how much he tried, he couldn’t figure it out.

Weary, he stretched out his hand to rub his temples. When he couldn’t recall it, he eventually gave up.

"Xiao Hai, are you angry?" Su Yun asked anxiously, "Why didn’t you let me take Second Aunt Qin and the others to find Cuifen right away?"

In Su Yun’s heart, Qin Cuifen had already become her unfortunate daughter, and she had thought of many ways to properly compensate her in the future.

Her feelings for her daughter were very conflicted. She felt guilty and feared that her daughter’s existence might cause Xingzhi to despise her.

But after hearing what Second Aunt Qin had said today and seeing the harsh rural environment, coupled with Xingzhi not despising her because of it, her suppressed motherly love burst forth like a flood.

She couldn’t wait to hold her daughter in her arms and show her love.

Su Hai coldly glanced at Su Yun and couldn’t be bothered to talk to her.

"Xiao Hai, are you mad at me? Do you also look down on me?" Su Yun bit her lip, feeling incredibly frustrated inside.

She had always been proud, strong-willed, with a self-esteem higher than anyone else’s. Her career, her family, the man she married—all the best. Yet, there was this one blemish.

It was all because she had been too impulsive in her youth; otherwise, none of this would have happened.

"Sister, no one looks down on you! And no one dares to look down on you. You are the only daughter of the Su Family, the wife of Meng Xingzhi—who would dare?"

Su Hai’s words made Su Yun breathe a sigh of relief, but what he said next made her heart plummet.

"Unless you look down on yourself, forcing all of us to look down on you."

"Xiao Hai, what have I done wrong? Why are you all forcing me?"

"You haven’t done anything wrong," Su Hai sighed, feeling that communication with her was impossible. Normally, his sister was so astute, but whenever it came to matters concerning herself or Meng Xingzhi, she became utterly foolish.

It was so... uncharacteristic of the Su Family.

Even Huai’an was better.

"About the Qin Family’s matters, you better not get involved now. Just stay at the guest house, and leave the rest to me."

"Alright! But Xiao Hai, the matter is clear now, dad’s still waiting at home..."

"Sister!" Su Hai rubbed his forehead, exhausted, "You call this clear? The holes in it are so obvious even a blind person could see them, can’t you really understand?"

It was foolish to the point of leaving one speechless.

"Enough, don’t say more! Leave it to me to handle!"

"But... but I gave the address and contact information to Second Aunt..." Su Yun said, feeling somewhat guilty. She hadn’t intended to give it so soon, but when Xiao Hai stepped out to smoke, Second Aunt asked so earnestly for it. As she thought of the eighteen years of care given to her daughter, she gave it for her daughter’s sake.

"You..." If it weren’t his sister, he would have ended it with a single shot.

Today, the General Union Dance Troupe was assigned a new task, which slightly displeased Qiu Bai.

Training had been intense lately, and soon they would decide who the key lead dancer would be. Her time was incredibly precious. Yet, just at this moment, the President personally organized an event to "deliver warmth" to the old workers.

An entire day had just been cleared for this "warmth" event.

Qiu Bai was discontented but had to agree nonetheless.

Learning Red culture, being grateful to revolutionary heroes—even she took pride in that.
