Chapter 18 Old Things
When Xu Shengchen heard Mrs. Mu's words, he was stunned.
According to common sense, my father has been leaving Jiangcheng for nearly 30 years.
Things change, and in addition to close relatives, there should be very few people who can remember their appearance.
Before, when Mr. Mu saw him, he thought of his father. When Mrs. Mu saw that he was like Mr. Mu, he came up to ask about his relationship with his father.
It seems that Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu must have had a deep friendship with their father back then.
However, he must not let outsiders know his identity as the grandson of the Xu family, so he said, "Madam Mu, who is Xu Yuan you are talking about?"
"Oh, I saw Adjutant Xu look like an old friend, so I just said casually, making Adjutant Xu laugh and sit in there." Mrs. Mu realized that she was a little out of control and said hurriedly.
"Mom, I'll introduce this to you again."
As he said that, Mu Anan pulled Huang Siqi beside him and continued, "Mom, this girl is Adjutant Xu's sister, Huang Siqi, the daughter of Commander Huang, came with Adjutant Xu today."
Mrs. Mu looked up and down Huang Siqi and said:
"He is gentle and generous, and he is indeed a lady from a wealthy family. An An, look at others and then look at you."
"What's wrong with me? It's like I'm embarrassing the Mu family. Mom, stop chatting here, let's go to the table." Mu Anan said in a sweet voice.
"Yes, Huizhong, let's talk." Mr. Mu said.
"Okay, let's serve."
After giving in to each other, several people sat down.
Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu sat in the front seats, Xu Xianchen next to Mr. Mu, Huang Siqi sat down next to Mrs. Mu, while Mu Anan and Mu Daishan sat next to Xu Xianchen and Huang Siqi.
Seeing everyone sitting down, Mr. Mu asked Mu Daishan: "Daishan, Mrs. Sun's surgery today is still going well?"
"Dad, everything goes well. The wound can heal in at most one week, and Mrs. Sun can heal in half a month." Mu Daishan said.
"That's good. The Sun family is a prominent family in Jiangcheng, and Sun Yunlong is also the director of the Security Bureau. You should pay more attention to it both public and private."
"A surgery, I used so many anti-inflammatory drugs, but I didn't have the cost of the surgery, so I lost it to death. That is, my brother, if it were me, I wouldn't do it." Mu Anan complained.
"An An, the surgery fee is exempted, and it was decided before the operation. It's just that no one mentioned it to us during the hospital handover.
Director Sun has received a favor from us this time and will definitely pay it back in the future.
Moreover, because of this operation, Director Sun approved a lot of affordable anti-inflammatory drugs from the Japanese, and it is not a loss if you calculate it carefully.
An An, after all, you are still not arrogant.”
"Anyway, you all make sense, no matter what you say," Mu Anan said with his little mouth raised.
"You have been abroad for a long time, only know how to manage and calculate, but not how to behave in the world.
Adjutant Xu, my daughter is spoiled and has been in the field for a few years abroad. You have to take more responsibility in the future." Mr. Mu said to Xu Xianchen.
"Master Mu, Xichen is a junior. Don't call Adjutant Xu in private anymore, call me Xichen."
"Okay, then my wife and I will call you Xu Chen from now on.
Then the first glass of wine is based on this name, let’s have a drink.” As he said that, Mr. Mu picked up the wine glass.
After everyone drank it all, Mrs. Mu asked Xu Xu Chen:
"Zhen Chen, I want to ask, your adoptive father's surname is Huang, but your surname is Xu, then your biological parents must be a family named Xu?"
"Yes, my biological parents are an ordinary farmer in Jiangnan. Once my adoptive father was injured and lived with them, so I got to know them.
Later, my parents forgot about the plague, so my adoptive father kept me by his side.”
Xu Xianchen's resume was carefully packaged by Huang Dingguo. There are no problems found in human and physical evidence.
As for why Huang Dingguo didn't want outsiders to know Xu Shengchen's true identity, even his wife Guo Xiaomin was not very clear.
In short, no one knows Xu Xianchen's true identity, except for Huang Dingming and his wife, and Xu Xianchen's teacher Bai Zhendong.
Even now, Xu Fengchen is still keeping his mouth shut and only talks about this to Xu Yong and Zhao Xiaoxue.
Hearing this, Mrs. Mu showed a hint of disappointment on her face, and after a moment she returned to normal, she said:
"So that's the case. You are very similar to an old friend. So I talked a few more words and asked Adjutant Xu not to take it to my heart."
"Hui Zhong, didn't he change his words and call him Yu Chen? Why did he call Adjutant Xu again?
In fact, I am like you. When I saw Vi Chen for the first time, I felt that he looked very similar to Brother Xu Yuan, and I thought it was him.
But think about it, Brother Xu Yuan has been away for more than 20 years, how could it be him? He is getting old and he starts to be nostalgic."
"Dad, is Xu Yuan you mentioned the boss of the Xu family Tongyicheng?" Mu Anan asked.
"Yes, back then, my mother and brother Xu Yuan, went to a private school and a middle school together, and the relationship was very good.
In this blink of an eye, it was more than 30 years ago.”
"Dad, if I guess correctly, do you and the boss of the Xu family fall in love with my mother?" Mu Anan asked curiously.
"An An, in front of an outsider, why do you say anything?" Mrs. Mu rebuked.
"Mom, I'm just curious."
"Haha, An An, today my dad is happy. I will satisfy your curiosity and tell you what happened before."
"Okay, dad." Mu An'an said.
"Didn't you always blame me for asking me if you like your mother, but marry her as a side house? In fact, there is a reason for this.
Just as you said, Brother Xu Yuan and I did fall in love with your mother back then.
However, your mother liked Brother Xu Yuan back then, not your father.
After middle school, Brother Xu Yuan went to Peking to study. Your mother thought Brother Xu Yuan would return after studying, but she did not expect that he would join the revolutionary army and never returned to Jiangcheng again.
Although my father has always liked your mother, he was just so busy at home that he had to marry your aunt.
Later, Brother Xu Yong had no news, and your mother's family also asked her to get married earlier. In this way, your mother became her father's side room."
"So there are so many sources of origin, why haven't you told me before?"
"This is not a glorious thing, there is nothing to say," said Mrs. Mu.
"Yes, if I hadn't seen Xi Chen today and had a feeling, these words wouldn't have been said to others." Mr. Mu said.
At this moment, the butler of the Mu Mansion knocked in from outside and said to Mr. Mu: "Master, the second young master has returned from the textile factory. I want to see you if you have something to do."
"The second child is back, probably not having any meal at this point. Let him come and gather together." Mrs. Mu said.
"Butler, please let him come in. Just so I'll let my second brother know Zi Chen too."
"Okay, sir." The housekeeper replied.
