The conversation ended here.
The principal stood up and stretched out his hand: "Xiao Chen, then I won't send you off."
Chen Nan shook hands with the principal, said nothing else, and turned to leave.
Seeing his lonely figure walking away, the principal sighed deeply.
Chen Nan's luggage was still in the school dormitory.
When he returned to the dormitory door, he saw his bedding, washbasin, clothes, shoes, and a large pile of books piled at the door.
The door was locked.
People were coming and going in front of the dormitory building, and everyone looked at Chen Nan with strange eyes, which made him feel like he was carrying a light on his back.
He wanted to leave this place, but there were too many luggages to carry, so he could only take a few important books.
I put the books in my bag, hurriedly left the school and returned to my brother and sister-in-law's house in Gaotupo.
When they got home, Chen Bei and Ma Chunhua had already gone to work, and Liu Ting was the only one there.
Chen Nan said: "Mom, didn't you say you were going to see her today?
Let's go now."
Liu Ting was very pleased that her son was finally willing to meet his biological mother.
She did not notice that Chen Nan's eyes were different from the past.
When the two went out, they were met by Hong Yu, so the three of them took a bus to Hong Yu's house.
Chen Nan was silent along the way.
Liu Ting and Hong Yu had nothing to say, and they were quite embarrassed.
When I arrived at the place, I saw that Hongyu's living environment was not bad.
It was a two-story building with bright and clean windows.
There were more than a dozen pots of flowers in the yard, which were kept spotless.
The furnishings in the house were simple and plain, but they had everything they should have, such as radios and bicycles.
These things that only the families of high-ranking cadres can have are also available to the Hongyu family.
Inviting Liu Ting and her son to sit down, Hongyu was busy pouring tea, handing out water and peeling apples.
She was very attentive.
She glanced at Chen Nan from time to time, with the warmth of a loving mother in her eyes, but Chen Nan always avoided her biological mother's eyes and did not have any contact with her.
Eye contact.
Talking about the experience of abandoning her son, Hongyu's eyes were red.
She wiped her tears from time to time with a handkerchief and recounted what happened back then.
Finally, she said with emotion: "With the blessing of Bodhisattva, the child not only survived when he met a noble person, but also survived."
So promising."
Liu Ting also sighed, but Chen Nan remained silent, his eyes wandering, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Sister-in-law, how have you and your mother been spending these years?"
Liu Ting couldn't help but ask when she saw the group photo on the wall and the young Zheng Zeru smiling at her.
Hongyu said: "Chen Shimei is everywhere these days.
He abandoned us, but we still have to live.
Fortunately, he still has some conscience and sends money every month, so our life is okay."
Unknowingly, it was noon, and Hongyu said that I had already bought the vegetables and let's have a meal together at noon.
Liu Ting hesitated for a moment, but agreed.
Hongyu was very happy and said: "My child, today I want you to try my mother's cooking, braised lion's head."
Chen Nan said: "I feel uncomfortable and want to go back."
Liu Ting blamed: "Xiao Nan, why are you like this?"
Chen Nan turned his face and stared blankly outside.
Hongyu hurriedly advised: "It's okay, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
From the beginning to the end, Chen Nan never called Hong Yu "mom".

The sun was shining brightly today, and there was a lot of traffic outside.
Chen Nan and Liu Ting slowly walked away.
Hongyu still stood at the door and looked at them, with mixed feelings in her heart.
She couldn't tell whether she was sad or happy.
On the way back, Chen Nan did not take the bus, but walked all the way.
The former Bo'ai Avenue has been renamed Zhongshan Road.
The plane trees on both sides of the road cover the sky and the sun, and the shadows of the trees are whirling.
"Mom, does Secretary Zheng know?"
Chen Nan finally broke the silence.
Liu Ting said: "I left him a letter, and he must know it now."
After pausing for a while, Chen Nan said: "Today, the school notified me that I will be sent to Nantai."
Liu Ting was shocked.
Life in the county was extremely difficult.
There were no electric lights or running water, and it was difficult to get water.
How could her son, who had been well-fed and well-fed since he was a child, endure such hardships?
"Don't go yet, I will find your father to find a solution."
Liu Ting said.
Chen Nan gave a bitter smile: "I shouldn't have come into this world.
I've been causing trouble to my father since I was a child, and I won't stop when I grow up.
Mom, you shouldn't have adopted me in the first place."
Liu Ting was startled for a moment and said: "Xiaonan, you are a good son to your parents.
No parent would think that their children are causing trouble.
You have been through a lot recently.
It is better to go home and rest for a while.
If not, my mother will take you."
It’s good to go to Beijing for a change of scenery.”
Chen Nan said calmly: "Let's talk about it later."
Provincial Party Committee, Zheng Zeru has been sitting at his desk for an hour without moving.
The yellowed paper is placed in front of the desk.
At this time, he has basically confirmed that Chen Nan is his long-lost eldest son.
For this son, Zheng Zeru always felt guilty, but he never regretted it, because in that historical period of white terror, revolutionaries were precarious and could be arrested or even executed by the reactionary Kuomintang authorities at any time.
How could a disabled child be ensured?
The baby grows up healthily.
Fortunately, the child was adopted by Chen Zikun, who allowed him to live a much happier life than ordinary people, and even his disabilities were cured.
The recognition of father and son was originally a great joy in life, but fate played a trick on him, and Chen Nan was involved in the political whirlpool and was labeled as a rightist by himself.
Moreover, his adoptive father Chen Zikun, as a high-ranking member of the Kuomintang Revolutionary Committee, may be the next person to be knocked down.
Being involved with the Chen family at this time would be very detrimental to Zheng Zeru's political future.
After pondering for a long time, Zheng Zeru took out a box of matches, struck them, lit the yellowed paper, and stared at it as it slowly curled, burned, and turned into ashes.
Ring the bell and the secretary comes in to wait for orders.
Zheng Zeru said: "The province must promptly follow up on the treatment of rightists, understand their transformation and work, learn from past mistakes and avoid future ones, and treat illnesses and save lives."
The secretary said: "I'll go find out about it."
Zheng Zeru nodded and continued working at his desk.
The secretary quietly stepped back, closed the door gently, and went out to make a few long-distance calls to the Salt Lake Farm and the Jiangbei District Education Bureau to learn about the transformation of rightists, especially Chen Nan.
The situation is of particular concern.
Secretaries are all very discerning.

Secretary Zheng's sudden concern for the reform of right-wing elements must be related to the recent accusation letter about Chen Nan.
Considering the relationship between the leader and the Chen family, he probably wants to protect him.
He had this thought in his mind and couldn't help but bring it out in his tone.
The other party was also a good person who was good at understanding the leader's intentions.
How could he not hear it?
He said that the Education Bureau originally planned to let Chen Nan be sent to Nantai, but the details depended on him.
Recent performance.
The secretary reported back to Secretary Zheng.
Zheng Zeru was deep in thought.
The secretary did not dare to disturb him or go out.
He had to stand there with Secretary Zheng for so long.
He had never seen a leader think about one thing for such a long time.
"Decentralization and transformation are good, but the environment in the county town is too superior.
I suggest that Chen Nan be transferred to a more difficult place, such as Kushuijing or some small mountain villages in Daqing Mountain.
This makes sense."
The secretary was a little puzzled, but when he saw Secretary Zheng's shining eyes, he suddenly understood that the leader was sincerely doing good for Chen Nan.
Only by putting himself to death can he survive.
Only by undergoing arduous transformation can he be reborn and take off his hat.
After the secretary left, Zheng Zeru came to the window and lit a cigarette.
A pale lightning flashed across the sky.
After a few seconds, a series of muffled thunders sounded, and rain began to fall.
"You are my son, Zheng Zeru, so you must have a tough heart and the ability to withstand storms."
The first secretary put out his cigarette butt and said to himself.
In Gaotupo, a family was having a meal.
Chen Bei and his wife had completely opposite attitudes towards the issue of his younger brother's devolution.
Chen Bei strongly opposed his brother's devolution to the county, but Ma Chunhua said that the conditions in the county were much better than those in the countryside.
She wanted to have some food.
Suffering is good for growth.
Chen Bei put down the wine glass heavily and said with red eyes: "You bitch, you know nothing.
If the organization assigns people to go to the countryside for training, it is good for growth, but this is not a distribution, it is a move to the left, it is an exile. , Xiaonan is already in such a miserable state, and if he is sent to the countryside to suffer, isn’t this a form of torture?
" Although Ma Chunhua is a political cadre, she is no match for Chen Bei when it comes to reasoning.
As her children grow older, her hot temper has also improved a lot.
She doesn't argue with her husband and just carries her children aside.
But Liu Ting could see that Ma Chunhua was not unable to quarrel with Chen Bei, but was giving way to him, so she advised: "Xiao Bei should also say less."
Chen Bei raised his head and took another drink, saying, "Anyway, don't even think about sending my brother to the countryside."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Ma Chunhua went to open the door.
Two cadres in Chinese tunic suits stood outside.
They took out their work certificates and introduced themselves, saying that they were from the regional education bureau and were sending Chen Nan to the countryside.
A Gas Jeep parked behind them.
Ma Chunhua brought the two in and said that the comrades from the Education Bureau were sending Chen Nan to the countryside.
Chen Bei exploded when he heard this.
He threw his chopsticks and said, "I chased him all the way home.
I want to ask who made the decision to send my brother to the county seat."
The cadre of the Education Bureau smiled disdainfully and said: "First of all, I'm going to correct you.

The place where Chen Nan was sent down was not Nantai County, but Kushuijing Township.
Secondly, we just came to give a notice and throw Chen Nan's quilt in No. 1 Middle School."
We are not responsible for the transportation issues of decentralized personnel.
Finally, I will tell you that Comrade Zheng Zeru, the first secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, personally ordered Chen Nan’s handling.
If you have any objections, please go to the Provincial Party Committee.”
After that, the two left a piece of transfer order and Chen Nan's luggage and left.
The family looked at each other.
Chen Nan's problem seemed to be serious again.
He was directly demoted to Kushuijing, the poorest and most difficult place in Jiangbei.
Even drinking water was a problem there.
He had to go more than ten miles away to get it.
Xiaonan could bear it.
This pain Liu Ting was shocked.
She never expected that Zheng Zeru would make such a decision.
Instead of saving her biological son, she would intensify the ruthless attack.
Chen Nan didn't have any violent reaction.
He didn't eat much in the first place.
At this time, he pushed his rice bowl and said, "I'm going to rest."
Chen Bei wanted to say something, but Liu Ting stopped him: "Let your brother be alone."
Chen Nan was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
The entire experience of the past year emerged before his eyes.
He went from Shanghai to the provincial capital, then from the provincial capital to Beitai, and now he was going to the countryside of Nantai County.
The gap in life was huge.
It's not as big as the psychological gap.
He used to be the proud man of heaven, but now he's just a rat on the street.
What made him even more irritated was that his biological father, Zheng Zeru, was so heartless.
Late at night, Chen Nan, who was tossing and turning, got up from bed, took out a pen and paper and wrote a few letters.
He put them in envelopes and put them under the ink bottle.
He also put away his watch and pen.
Then he dressed neatly and went out quietly.
At dawn, the streets were shrouded in mist, and only the rustle of cleaners sweeping the streets could be heard.
Chen Nan came to the Workers' Cultural Palace building opposite the city hall, climbed to the top of the fourth floor, took one last look at the foggy world, and then jumped down
