Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 130 Xiaofeng, will you not want Dad in the future (third watch)?
Chapter 130: 130 Xiaofeng, will you not want Dad in the future (third watch)?
He Ximei’s words were meant to comfort Xiaofeng as well as Guaizi.
This was only something Luo Yuzhu had mentioned, who knew how much of it was true or false.
To Xiaofeng, whether Luo Yuzhu was her real mother or not, she didn’t have much of a feeling. She turned around, took Guaizi’s arm, and softly called out, "Dad."
Old Guaizi listened to her voice and it took quite a while before he looked up, his eyes murky as he gazed at Xiaofeng, with small teardrops visible and deep wrinkles etched into his aged and yellowed face.
He stared blankly at Xiaofeng, as if he saw not only her but also someone else through her.
"Dad." Xiaofeng, seeing his expression, felt a pang of heartache and called out softly again.
"Guaizi." Guaizi’s silent, motionless demeanor equally frightened He Ximei.
Su Old Guaizi suddenly crouched on the ground, covering his face as he started to cry—have you ever seen a grown man cover his face and cry on the ground?
Xiaofeng had not seen it before.
In her past life, her parents loved and cherished her dearly, and she even had a younger brother. Even when she later started a business, her family supported her.
In her past life, she didn’t know if her father had ever cried behind her back, but he definitely had not cried in front of her.
Now, Guaizi was crying in front of her, helpless like a child, and her tears poured out at once. She carefully squatted in front of Guaizi, "Dad, no matter what, I will always be your biological daughter."
Su Old Guaizi slowly lifted his head and just gazed at Xiaofeng, his face filled with pain. He reached out and let his hand rest on Xiaofeng’s face.
"Feng, Dad is just feeling a bit hurt. My daughter died, and I was the last to know. I didn’t even see her one last time. Dad is really useless, I’m sorry to her." His daughter was how old at that time? Barely over a month old, a tiny baby had just died.
Eighteen years had passed before he learned about it. Now his heart was full of remorse, he...
"Guaizi, you shouldn’t blame yourself too much. Perhaps Luo Yuzhu was lying."
"No, I understand her. She must be telling the truth." Su Old Guaizi shook his head, covered Xiaofeng’s hand with his own, and placed it on his face, "Feng, if you find your biological parents in the future, will you not want me?"
Xiaofeng’s eyes were brimming with tears as she shook her head, "Dad, you will always be my dad, forever."
Whether what Luo Yuzhu had said was true or false, and whatever the truth was, only she knew. But regardless of the truth, Su Old Guaizi was her dad, always would be.
"Good child." Su Old Guaizi’s rough fingers caressed Xiaofeng’s face, his voice hoarse, "You should not blame Yuzhu for this matter—she probably got scared back then. Regardless of whether she picked you up or brought you home, we had our father-daughter relationship. Dad doesn’t ask you to remember any favors, only that you don’t resent me." ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Xiaofeng nodded, "I don’t resent you, you are my dad for a lifetime."
"Xiaofeng." He Ximei looked at the two, "Your Dad is correct. If Luo Yuzhu didn’t pick you up but actually brought you home, then the situation is complicated. But Guaizi has raised you as his own daughter for over a decade, and the affection in that time can’t be faked."
"Dad, Auntie." Xiaofeng forced a smile, "Let’s not talk about whether Luo Yuzhu’s words are credible; even if what she said is true, what does it matter, I am Su Xiaofeng right now. As for my biological parents, I’m not thinking about that right now."
As she spoke, she helped Guaizi stand up, "Dad, no matter what, I will never abandon you, and you must not abandon me either."
People’s hearts are made of flesh; even though Old Guaizi was not eloquent, he truly did his best for his original child.
"Alright, let’s pretend this never happened, and continue living life as usual." He Ximei immediately understood Xiaofeng’s intention, "It’s better that we’ve brought this out in the open. In the future, when we see the Lin Family, we’ll just keep our distance. They don’t want to be associated with us, and we don’t desire any relationship with them either. Whether we are rich or not, it’s enough for our family to live happily and harmoniously."
...
For Su Old Guaizi, what Luo Yuzhu had said was definitely painful to hear. Seeing him in this condition, He Ximei was worried and would follow him wherever he went if he wanted to return to Lihua Village, she would also go back.
If He Ximei was going back, then Su Peng needed Xiaofeng to watch over him.
After Su Peng had gone to sleep, Xiaofeng asked Xiaoqi, "Xiaoqi, my big brother’s brain damage is from a burn he suffered later in life, can it be treated?"
"Of course it can." Xiaoqi’s voice chirped excitedly, "Actually, it’s not difficult at all."
Xiaofeng was overjoyed upon hearing this, "What do we need to do?"
"When the master is six months pregnant, a leafless tree will appear in the Spiritual Mirror Forest. The branches contain a healing sap that is very effective in repairing brain nerves. The master can try that."
"Didn’t you say that things from the Spiritual Mirror Forest can’t be taken out and can only be consumed inside the space?" Xiaofeng said, somewhat exasperated by Xiaoqi’s words.
Xiaoqi tilted its head in earnest, "Did I say that? This is simple. Things from the Spiritual Mirror Forest can’t be taken out, but items from the storage room can. The master can collect the sap and put it into storage space, then take it out from there, right?"
It was simply a matter of adding an extra step.
Xiaofeng: ——
So, it wasn’t that items couldn’t be taken out; as long as the method was correct, they definitely could be.
This little rascal Xiaoqi, always saying things by halves. Xiaofeng couldn’t help but want to smack it.
"So, those fruits and such can also be taken out using this method." Xiaofeng raised her eyebrows, her tone carrying a hint of danger.
Hearing the change in her master’s tone, Xiaoqi immediately tried to ingratiate itself, "Master, I didn’t deliberately withhold information. You didn’t ask, so of course, I didn’t mention it. Master, there’s also a type of fruit in the forest that, if used as a seasoning, would make the food taste absolutely delicious."
As it spoke, Xiaoqi flew to a certain tree and picked a few nuts that looked like walnuts, offering them to Xiaofeng with a pleasing gesture, "Master, these are the ones."
