2669 Relations
It was impossible to look for the marriage certificate registered by Martyr Sun Xueqing and Ye Xinfan.
But
Principal Chen rubbed his temples and calmed his chaotic heart for a while. Then, he said to Mr. Fu, “Brother Fu, how about this? I’ll ask you a question and you’ll answer me. Help me solve this mess, alright? How about that? If not, I’m afraid I won’t be able to understand it myself.”
It was indeed a mess. Mr. Fu sighed and said, “It’s not a mess. Brother, please ask.”
“Your name was ‘Ye Xinfan’ in the past, and Grandma Ye once threw you out onto the streets You have to tell me about this.” Principal Chen was in a mess now. He added, “Grandpa Gen told me that Ye Jian’s adoptive father isn’t Grandpa Ye’s biological son. He’s Grandpa Ye’s elder brother Uncle Ye Zhifan’s son.”
It had been more than ten years since the incident happened, but he could recall everything clearly. Mr. Fu explained, “Grandpa Ye’s elder brother married my father’s youngest sister, who’s my Aunt.
“Back then, our Fu family was suppressed because of our composition. No one dared to marry my youngest aunt when she was in her 20s. Later, she married my uncle, who came back from the military.:
Principal Chen understood this point. “That means that the Fu family and the Ye family are in-laws. Grandpa Ye married your aunt and became the son-in-law of the Fu family. Based on this, Grandma Ye has to call your aunt Sister-in-law.”
“That’s right. This is the relationship between the Fu family and the Ye family. That year, I was sent to Aunt’s house and my name changed to Ye Xinfan. I thought that when the Fu family’s life became more stable, my father would bring me back to raise me.
“I have a few older brothers. All of them died young because of the chaos during those years. In the end, only my youngest sister and I survived. The old man was worried that I would suffer too, so he sent me to my Aunt’s side.”
Principal Chen was enlightened. “I understand now. You changed your name to Ye Xinfan when you were sent to Uncle Ye’s house and became the son of your uncle and aunt.
“Then why did you appear on the streets? Ye Jian’s adoptive father Where did he come from?”
“Brother, you know as well that in that era, there was a problem with food. How could they raise a child?
“My uncle and aunt left money and food for Grandpa Ye and Grandma Ye.
“I just didn’t expect Grandma Ye to throw me out after my uncle and aunt passed away.
“I was young at that time, but I knew that I came from the capital city. Grandma Ye threw me at the bus station, so I took the ten yuan that my aunt secretly gave me before she passed away and climbed into a car to go to the capital city.
“At that time, it wasn’t as convenient to go to the capital city as it is now when there are trains and planes that could reach there directly. Even though I had ten yuan on me, it wasn’t of any use. I spent almost a year begging for food before returning to the capital city.
“Just now, when you mentioned Shuikou Village, I found it familiar. Then, you mentioned Ye Xinfan After going around in circles, we still ended up in Grandma Ye’s hands and suffered.”
Principal Chen felt that his life had been a little bumpy. However, compared to Mr. Fu, at least he lived with his parents before he joined the military. Later, when his hometown suffered a huge flood, he lost his home and his parents. Hence, he joined the military.
