Chapter 497 Rumors
Zhang Jianhe is also a chicken thief. After half a month when the family building knew that Pei Yue had a partner, he found a tight-lipped aunt and asked her to spread the rumors of Pei Yue's adoption. Of course, the help was not for nothing, and it was paid.
The news spread throughout the entire auto parts factory at a speed like a tornado. Aunt Tang immediately told Wang Hongfen when she heard the rumor, and she said: "This rumor says that Pei Yue has nothing in common with Lao Pei and Zhao Yi, and he was not born here. Tell me, is he really Fostered?"
Wang Hongfen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Pei Yue is my old Pei's son. He doesn't look like my old Pei, but he looks like his uncle."
Aunt Tang said in surprise: "How do you know?"
"My old Pei told me personally."
Aunt Tang was dubious about this statement.
When she got home, she saw Pei Xuehai and immediately asked: "Old Pei, everyone outside is saying that Pei Yue is not your son, but adopted. I don't know who it is, Lao Pei, to spread such vicious rumors."
She had already sensed something was wrong with Pei Xuehai's strange behavior before, so she didn't pursue it further. Now it is obvious that someone is causing trouble, and this person must be arrested.
Pei Xuehai was also very puzzled, and said: "I have retired for five years, and I have not hindered anyone. What is the purpose of spreading such rumors?"
Wang Hongfen was also thinking about this matter today, she said: "Old Pei, do you think it is possible that it is Pei Yue's partner? She wants to separate the father-son relationship between you and Pei Yue, so she deliberately spread such rumors."
Pei Xuehai thinks it's impossible: "How does she know that Pei Yue is not like me and Zhao Yi? Also, the people in our family building don't know her, and she is still studying in university in Forty-Nine City, how can she spread rumors?"
Wang Hongfen also thought about this issue, and she said: "You don't need to do this kind of thing yourself, it's good to have someone help you. Our family building has a ready-made one."
Pei Xuehai knew she was talking about Zhang Jianhe, but he didn't think so. Zhang Jianhe has a very close relationship with Pei Yue, so it is impossible for such rumors to spread, and it is not a good thing for Pei Yue that his life experience is unknown.
Seeing his denial, Wang Hongfen said: "That means we can't see our good people doing bad things. Xuehai, if someone asks you, you must firmly deny it."
Pei Xuehai hesitated and said: "Hongfen, actually..."
Wang Hongfen interrupted him and said, "Old Pei, Pei Yue is your son, your own son. You have raised him for so many years, and now that you are old, he has to support you."
Even if Pei Yue will not support Jiamao and Jiade, as long as he is Lao Pei's son, he will have to pay for Lao Pei's pension and medical expenses. But if he finds his biological parents, it will be difficult for Pei Yue to let go of them with this excuse.
Hearing this, Pei Xuehai sighed and said nothing more.
After two days, Zhang Jianhe returned to the family building, and asked Zhang's mother about it during the meal: "Mom, I heard that Brother Yue was not born to Pei Xuehai, but adopted. Mom, is this true?"
"But brother Yue and Pei Xuehai don't look like Aunt Zhao, is that true?"
Mother Zhang said: "Your Aunt Zhao said that Pei Yue looks like her younger brother."
"Have you met Aunt Zhao's younger brother?"
Mother Zhang shook her head and said, "Your Aunt Zhao's family members were all killed by the devils, and she was the only one left in the family. I have seen photos of their family, but the photos are not clear for so many years, and his younger brother was only How old are you?"
Zhang Jianhe asked back: "Mom, when I was a child, I took 20 yuan from my family to buy toys and snacks. After you and Dad found out, you closed the door and beat me up. But when asked by outsiders, you said that you broke the radio and died. I didn't steal the money."
Mother Zhang understood the meaning of his words, and said: "Pei Xuehai was deceived by that woman's lard, and she did whatever she said. Jianhe, even if you don't believe in Pei Xuehai, you should believe in your Aunt Zhao."
Zhang Jianhe asked another question: "When Aunt Zhao died, she gave all the savings of the family to Brother Yue. Mom, Brother Yue was only six years old and still a child. Why did Aunt Zhao do this?"
He also thought about this matter carefully these days, and then found that Tian Shao's suspicion might be true. As a mother, she was about to die, even if she felt that the man was careless in his career and couldn't take good care of his son, he wouldn't be on guard against him. But Aunt Zhao lied to Pei Xuehai that the family's savings had been spent on medical treatment, and then gave all the savings to Pei Yue.
Mother Zhang asked in amazement: "What deposit?"
Mother Zhang was shocked when she found out about the deposit. She really didn't expect that Zhao Yi could save so much money, more than 4,000 yuan. Twenty years ago, her salary was only 16 yuan.
Mother Zhang is also a shrewd person. She looked at Zhang Jianhe with scrutiny and asked, "Why are you so concerned about this matter? Jianhe, you couldn't have made this rumor?"
So it is said that knowing a child is like a mother, and I guessed the truth in a short time.
Zhang Jianhe has long thought of countermeasures: "I have had the guts of a bear, and I don't dare to make rumors about Brother Yue! I just heard this rumor, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong. The three brothers and sisters Pei Jiamao and Pei Jiade, once there If he felt unwell, he was sent to the factory doctor, and when Pei Xiaoxiao had a fever, he asked for leave and sent him to the hospital to accompany him. But as for Brother Yue, he never cared about it."
"Mom, you always say that if you marry a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Brother Yue is so pitiful. But there was a three-year interval between the death of his aunt and the time he married Wang Hongfen. During these three years, he didn't care about Brother Yue. No one blows the pillow wind. If it wasn't for Brother Yue's money, he might have starved to death."
"Mom, I really doubt that Pei Yue was adopted. Only in this way can he explain why he doesn't care about Brother Yue, and he can casually say that Brother Yue is a thief."
After such an analysis, Zhang's mother also felt that something was wrong. She recalled the past carefully, and found that Pei Xuehai really didn't care about Pei Yue. After Zhao Yi died of illness, Pei Yue had a fever and was injured by playing around and he was also busy with work. They were the ones who had a good relationship with Zhao Yi and couldn't see it. They took turns to take care of him. It's just that she felt that it was pointless to pursue this matter.
Mother Zhang said: "Even if Pei Yue is adopted, so what? If Pei Xuehai raises him, he will have to die for the elderly, otherwise the trouble will affect his reputation and hinder his future."
"If you are adopted, you should always know where your roots are."
Mother Zhang looked at her son, sighed and said, "Pei Xuehai was in the southwest before changing jobs with your Aunt Zhao. At that time, the Southwest was plagued by banditry and it was not peaceful. With your Aunt Zhao's character, Pei Yue was really adopted, so he must be They are also orphans, or they are not wanted by their parents.”
Hearing this, Zhang Jianhe suddenly felt that there should be no further investigation. Although Pei Xuehai was very indifferent, Aunt Zhao loved him to the core, no matter what, he was better than an orphan or an abandoned child.
