Chapter 1500 1620, I Just Pulled up My Pants and Left It Alone

Shen Tingxi nodded.

Seeing Shen Tingxi nodding, the woman burst into tears. She turned around and shouted at the door: "Old Zhao, Old Zhao, come out quickly!"

A man's voice came from the room, "What are you shouting for? I'm watching TV."

"Old Zhao, Ping'er... Ping'er..." The woman cried excitedly, unable to speak completely.

There was a sound of something falling to the ground in the room, and within a few seconds a man in his seventies ran out of the room, looking everywhere, "Where is Ping'er?"

The woman took Shen Tingxi's hand and said, "He...he is Ning Ning's boyfriend."

Lao Zhao ran to Shen Tingxi, his hand holding the cigarette trembling, "Are you really Ning Ning's boyfriend?"

Shen Tingxi nodded.

Old Zhao searched behind Shen Tingxi for a moment. When he saw the end of the village and saw no one he wanted to see, he looked away, coldly said "I don't know Ning Ning" and then turned and walked towards the door.

"Old Zhao...Old Zhao..." The woman shouted twice with tears in her eyes. Old Zhao said without replying, "Don't come back if you can leave," and then entered the house.

The woman wiped away her tears and turned to look at Shen Tingxi, "That's how he is. He actually misses Ping'er and his daughter..." The woman realized something and said hurriedly: "Come in, come in, Let’s go inside and talk.”

Shen Tingxi nodded.

The woman took two steps back and was about to pick up the bucket on the ground.

Shen Tingxi raised it first, "I'll do it."

Woman: "No, give it to me, don't make you wet."

Shen Tingxi raised her lips politely and said, "It's okay, I'll do it."

The woman's outstretched hand paused in the air, retracted it, nodded with tears in her eyes, and said "good" several times.

The two entered the room. The woman took the water, pointed to a chair for Shen Tingxi to sit on, and then carried the water into the kitchen. After a while, she brought out a cup of tea and handed it to Shen Tingxi, "Drink tea."

"Thank you." Shen Tingxi stood up, took the tea cup and placed it on the old wooden table in front of him.

The woman turned her head and glanced at the closed door next to her, then looked back at Shen Tingxi, "Don't mind, he just has such a bad temper."

Shen Tingxi knew that the woman was talking about Lao Zhao, so she shook her head and said it didn't matter.

The woman sat down opposite Shen Tingxi and asked impatiently: "How are Ping'er and Ningning... okay?"

Shen Tingxi thought for a while and realized that some things could not be kept hidden from her forever, so she said truthfully: "Aunt Zhao has passed away..."

The door of the next room opened with a swipe, and Lao Zhao looked at Shen Tingxi excitedly, "What do you think happened to Ping'er?"

Shen Tingxi glanced at Lao Zhao, and then at the woman who was trembling with tears in her eyes but still looking at her with a glimmer of hope. She said with some difficulty, "Aunt Zhao passed away."

"Ah...ah..." The woman screamed twice with a pale face, as if she couldn't catch her breath. She clutched her chest tightly with her hands. After two seconds, tears fell down and she cried, "Ping'er... …My Ping’er…”

Old Zhao staggered twice, leaning heavily on the door panel with his back, and his eyes instantly became cloudy.

The room was enveloped in sadness and anger. Shen Tingxi didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only sit quietly and drink tea.

After a while, the crying and choking slowly calmed down.

Old Zhao was angry that his daughter left home without a word and took his granddaughter away. He left for ten years without any news, so he turned around and went back to the house in anger after seeing Shen Tingxi. Now that he knows that his daughter has passed away, he has lost all his temper. , sat next to his wife and asked Shen Tingxi, "Where is Ningning? How are you doing now?"

"Ningning is in Fancheng, working in a construction company." Shen Tingxi really couldn't bear to tell the two elders, who were still grieving the loss of their daughter, that Mu Jingping was actually not in a good situation.

"It's good to go to work." In Lao Zhao's mind, going to work means that he can support himself and make money, which is a good thing.

"Fancheng, it's very far away." The woman murmured, her tears still flowing uncontrollably, her voice was a little hoarse from crying, and suddenly she looked at Shen Tingxi again, "Why doesn't Ning Ning come back?"

"If you want to see her, I will bring her here next time." Shen Tingxi thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, the main reason I came here this time is to learn about Ning Ning's life experience and find her biological father."

When Lao Zhao heard this, anger filled his turbid eyes, "I also want to know who that bastard is? He just pulled up his pants and ignored her, leaving Ping'er to suffer a lot of injustice and look down at her."

The woman cried and said: "That stupid kid Ping'er would rather be looked down upon than give birth to the child, but he kept silent about the child's father."

Shen Tingxi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhao Xiangping's parents didn't know who Ning Ning's father was. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Then do you know Mu Yiqing?"

Lao Zhao shook his head.

"Why does this name sound familiar to me?" The woman thought for a few seconds and suddenly grabbed Lao Zhao's arm. "Didn't Ping'er bring a classmate home one summer vacation? That classmate seemed to be named Mu Yiqing. "

After thinking about it, Lao Zhao still had no impression.

The woman, "tall, thin, and fair, I remembered her name was Mu Yiqing. She was said to be the monitor of the class. She lived in the town and went to the countryside with a few classmates to play. That year It was just in time for the rice harvest at home, and the boy stayed to help for a long time. I remember that he came to the house several times later, and he brought fruits every time, but he always came and left in a hurry. "

Lao Zhao frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded as if he suddenly had an epiphany, "There is such a person."

The woman suddenly remembered that when Shen Tingxi said Ning Ning's name outside, she said Mu Ning Ning. Obviously Ning Ning's full name was Zhao Ning, why did she become Mu Ning Ning again? Did Ping'er change the child's name after taking Ning Ning away?

Mu Yiqing, Mu tranquility.

The woman looked at Shen Tingxi nervously, "You mean Mu Yiqing is Ning Ning's father?"

Shen Tingxi nodded, "It's very likely."

"It's him, it must be him." The woman stood up excitedly, "Ping'er has never brought any classmates home, except for this Mu Yiqing, and I found one under her pillow when I was cleaning Ping'er's room. I asked Ping'er about the two-inch photo of Mu Yiqing. Ping'er hesitated and said that it was a school ID photo. The class monitor left her with her homework, and she wanted to return it later. Ping'er has always been well-behaved and sensible. I didn't think about anything else. Now that I think about it, I was afraid that the two of us would get along. "

"Why didn't you mention this to me?" Old Zhao suddenly stood up and walked towards the door angrily, "I'm going to beat that bastard to death."

The woman stood up and grabbed Lao Zhao, "You don't know where he is, how can you fight him?"

"..." Lao Zhao was also confused and was rendered speechless by his wife's question.
