Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Aunt Xu spoke with increasing emotion, almost unable to believe all that she had thought of.

Upon hearing Aunt Xu’s words, Guan Cheng was dumbfounded and had not expected that Zhong Wenxiu’s grandparents, who had defected abroad, were actually good friends with Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu. He couldn’t help but blurt out, "Could it be Mr. Zhong Shi who went to Hong Kong in the year you had trouble?"

The reason Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu were sent down to Wanglou Brigade was primarily due to Zhong Shi, and Guan Cheng had a very strong memory of this.

Lu Tianjun also remembered, "Such a coincidence?"

Aunt Xu clapped her hands and smiled, "Yes, it’s just such a coincidence. There’s no such story without coincidence; it seems that the arrangements of fate are truly not for humans to decide. No matter how twisted the path, there’s always some connection!"

"Have you told the teacher?" Guan Cheng asked.

Aunt Xu’s smile faded slightly as she shook her head, "No, Zhong Shi’s son abandoned his daughter and granddaughter. As old friends of Zhong Shi, we all felt ashamed and couldn’t bring ourselves to tell him. It’s like how Brother Jin asks if his granddaughter is doing well, and you would say everything is fine so as not to worry the elder."

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianjun suddenly said, "Grandma Xu, what is the name of Comrade Zhong Wenxiu’s father? We’ll be on the lookout for him in the future, maybe we’ll come across him as coincidentally as today."

The capitalist’s son has disappeared so completely; he either went abroad or changed his name and identity within the country.
