Chapter 283 Come home
"What's wrong?" Mr. Du heard something wrong in Mr. Fan's words and asked quickly.
"I've heard you talk about what kind of life Han Sen led in Dongshan Village before," said Mr. Fan in a low voice, "but I still had a little fantasy in my heart, always thinking it wouldn't be that bad, but now I don't think so anymore."
"What did you and Lao Li find out?" Mr. Du's expression became serious.
"The Han family in Dongshan Village are nothing!" Old Fan suddenly cursed, "They are just beasts!"
Then Mr. Fan handed the investigation materials to Mr. Du, who quickly took them and opened them to check. He couldn't help but scold the Han family, "They are worse than beasts."
Old Du had lived in Dongshan Village before. He had learned about Han Sen's situation from the villagers and knew that the Han family treated Han Sen very badly. But compared to this survey data, what he knew was simply child's play and was nothing at all!
Who could have imagined that a three or four-year-old kid would have to work in the fields and collect firewood, while Han Mu and Han Lin, who were a few years older than him, were told by their father and mother that they were in poor health and had to stay at home to recuperate. In fact, were they just eating eggs at home or running around?
Who could have imagined that a child with a high fever could not rest in the house, but had to brave the heavy snow to fill the water tank for the family. Because of his young age and lack of strength, he could only carry half a bucket of water back and forth many times. And Han Mu and Han Lin were still complaining about the cold in their newly made cotton-padded jackets, but were patiently coaxed by his father and mother to sit in front of the stove and eat roasted sweet potatoes as a snack?
Reading the records one by one made Elder Du's eyes turn red. "It's really not easy for Han Sen to grow up like this without becoming cynical!"
"Humph, if the Han family knew that their child had died long ago," Old Fan said lightly with sharp eyes, "would their hearts and livers ache?"
"Serves them right!" Old Du flipped through the investigation records. "People who commit evil deeds should not live. This retribution was not taken on Han's father and mother, but on their children. I wonder if they will regret it later?"
"Regret, haha," Mr. Fan laughed sarcastically, "That's retribution, you don't deserve to regret!"
"When will Lao Lin come back?" Du Lao thought about how sad Lao Lin would be if he saw Han Sen being abused since childhood.
"I've asked around, and I'm told I can't come back before the New Year, so I'll have to come back after the New Year." Mr. Fan sounded even sadder when he said this.
"Wait a little longer!" After hearing this, Mr. Du could only sigh deeply.
"Well, let's wait a little longer," said Mr. Fan. "We couldn't find any information about Han Sen before, so it was useless to worry. But now that we have found Han Sen, we can follow Han Sen's lead and investigate in reverse order. We have found a lot of unknown things, and we haven't figured them out yet. We can use this time difference to continue investigating."
"Then wait until you and Old Li finish investigating. I think Old Lin should be back by now!" Old Du was in high spirits after hearing this. "This time, we must seek justice for Han Sen for all the years he has been offended by."
"Well, don't worry!" Mr. Fan was full of confidence.
The Spring Festival was soon here, and the Su family and Mr. Du stayed up together during the Spring Festival. Since they had no relatives in the capital, they skipped the process of visiting relatives and friends, and had a lot of free time. So they went out to climb mountains and visit scenic spots. Although Mr. Du had visited many of the scenic spots many times, he found a sense of novelty when visiting with the Su family.
If you look at the world from a different perspective, you will see a whole new world!
After all, how can you discover a new world with an old map!
So Mr. Du, who discovered this, was particularly happy when visiting tourist attractions with the Su family, which made Su Yunyun and Han Sen, who had been keeping an eye on him, feel a lot more relieved!
They have always been worried that when Mr. Du sees these attractions, he will be sad and upset!
Now they found that there was no need to worry. Although Mr. Du would suddenly let himself go sometimes, the time was very short and he would quickly change his mood and devote himself wholeheartedly.
If Mr. Fan or Mr. Li were standing in front of Mr. Du at this time, they would definitely be very pleased, because Mr. Du's mental outlook was completely renewed, and he no longer looked gloomy and dying!
Whenever the Su family and their children visited a scenic spot, they all lamented how much advantage being a Beijinger had and how good the resources they enjoyed!
If this happened in Dongshan Village, apart from visiting relatives and friends during the New Year, people would just chat and gossip with the villagers. Some would go for a stroll in the town or county town, just as if they had been to a big city, making the villagers look at them with envy. They would walk in the village with the air of pride!
Especially Su's father, Su's mother and Su Ping saw that their children's horizons were gradually broadening, and they were very grateful to Su Yunyun and Han Sen!
The two of them gave up the rewards from the army in exchange for a Beijing residence permit for their family, which changed the trajectory of their lives!
It also gives children a better future!
Therefore, everyone secretly made a decision in their hearts, not only to pay more attention to Su Yunyun and Han Sen, but also to take better care of Old Du, so that he could live more comfortably and feel happier in the Su family.
So during this Spring Festival, the laughter from the Su family made the surrounding neighbors sigh: This big family, surprisingly, is not dirty at all, but gets along harmoniously and closely, and the pedestrians are united in their dealings with each other, which makes people envy them!
According to custom, the Spring Festival usually ends on the 15th day of the first lunar month. However, when the day came to the 6th day of the first lunar month, Mr. Du began to urge Su Yunyun to concentrate and focus on studying. Han Sen also consciously took the book given by Mr. Fan and read it carefully, which naturally stimulated the children's enthusiasm for learning, making the Su family overjoyed.
Since the children are already devoted to their studies, Su Ping and the others will no longer clamor to go out and play all day long, so they plunged into the renovated bun shop and began to polish it carefully. Li Yue and Wang Ye also kept adjusting the taste of the buns, striving to make it a hit when it opened!
After everything was settled, it was already the ninth day of the first lunar month. After dinner, Su Ping and his friends officially announced, "We have agreed to open the bun shop on the twelfth day of the first lunar month. This way, we can stabilize the business before school starts. Even after we go to school, we don't have to worry about Li Yue and her friends being too busy to handle it."
"Okay, okay!" Father Su looked at Su Ping happily. "While everyone is here, let's take a look at what else needs to be adjusted and improved in the bun shop, and rectify them all at once. This way, we can prevent some bad things from happening and affect our business."
"Dad, that's what we think!" Su Ping agreed with his father very much. "So when the store opens, we will all stay in the store to help out and observe carefully, and try to make adjustments before we start school."
"Okay, let's do as you say!" Father Su was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
At this time, Mr. Du slowly spoke, "Tomorrow, Yunyun, Hansen, and my brother and sister-in-law, don't go out. Lao Fan and Lao Li will bring people to our house tomorrow!"
