Su Nan scooped a bowl of soup for her, "This is pure local chicken soup. Try it."
Gu Tong took a few bites and said, "Well, it's really delicious. It's all natural. There are no seasonings except salt."
"Yes, this is purely natural." Su Nan stared at Gu Tong from time to time, "How have you been in these years?" She realized that her words were inappropriate, "I mean, your mother is not with you, Are you having a hard time? Is your father treating you well?"
Gu Tong shook his head. In front of Su Nan, she seemed to have nothing to hide, "I have neither a mother nor a father since I was a child. My father fostered me outside. That woman colluded with my stepmother and either beat or scolded me. I was I grew up with their abuse, but fortunately, I have grown up now.”
Su Nan's eyes turned red when she heard this, "You have suffered a lot."
"It's not bad. I have lived in such an environment since I was a child. I have never experienced anything better, but I don't think there is anything wrong with it." Gu Tong ate a chicken drumstick. "Auntie, you can also eat a drumstick."
Su Nan also ate one, "Your stepmother often abuses you, right?"
Gu Tong nodded, "Yes, but I have moved out now and don't see them very often. Do you know why I learned to be a chef? My adoptive mother and stepmother forced me to raise them." Damn it, I followed their wishes and became a great chef."
The more Su Nan listened, the more she felt sad, "I'm really sorry for you, Tongtong, what are your plans in the future?"
Gu Tong shook his head and his eyes dimmed, "I don't know, I don't want to go back to the imperial capital."
Because of Mr. Ye's persecution, she might have no choice but to stay in Shanghai. "It doesn't matter if she's in Shanghai. If my mother is really here, I can find her, and she can be considered a relative."
Su Nan wiped the corners of her eyes, "But what if your mother is different from what you imagined? I mean, she might not be very capable and might not be able to protect you?"
Gu Tong smiled, "I'm so old now, I should protect her. I know she had no choice but to leave back then. I didn't want me, I just couldn't afford it, so she sent me back to the Gu family. , In fact, my uncle and the others have already forgiven her."
Su Nan's spoon fell into the bowl, "Has your uncle forgiven your mother?"
Gu Tong was stunned, "Auntie, what's wrong with you? Do you know my mother?"
Su Nan reacted, "No, I mean, your mother gave birth to a child out of wedlock, which should not be accepted in the countryside."
"You are right. My mother was not accepted by them at first. I heard that my grandfather was seriously injured because of my mother's fall and passed away a few days later. My grandmother also passed away from grief, so my uncle just He developed a hatred for my mother, but there is no unbreakable hatred between brothers and sisters. My uncle has already forgiven my mother. "
Su Nan couldn't describe what it felt like and almost cried, "Forgive me! Forgive me!!"
"Auntie, are you okay?" Gu Tong was paying attention to Su Nan's reaction, "You and Aunt Ling Fei were both injured, right? Then, you both had plastic surgery? She used it on your face, And you used her face, right?"
Gu Tong's voice was very low, afraid of being heard by others.
Su Nan was stunned and her expression froze for a moment, "What did you say?"
Gu Tong repeated again, "So, you are my mother! Otherwise, you wouldn't have such a big reaction to what I said. Also, there is no reason why Aunt Ling Fei looks so similar to me, Auntie, I’m a doctor, I understand!”
Su Nan was surprised, and took Gu Tong's hand with trembling hands, "Do you really think so? Tongtong, do you hate your mother?"
Gu Tong shook his head, "I said, I don't hate it."
Su Nan held back her tears, "I will tell you later, but not yet."
Gu Tong was puzzled, "Why? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of Xia Zixuan? What did Xia Zixuan do to you back then? That accident was caused by Xia Zixuan, right?"
Su Nan choked and felt extremely uncomfortable, "Stop talking, Tongtong, there are some things you'd better not know."
How could Gu Tong pretend not to know, "I already know it. Apart from this, I can't think of any other hypothesis. You are my mother, right!"
Su Nan looked around. Fortunately, everyone was eating and no one paid attention to them. She took Gu Tong's hand from the dining table and held it tightly, "Tongtong, I'm really happy to see you. In a blink of an eye, , My Tongtong has grown so big!”
Gu Tong took out his hand, it turned out to be true! "You are obviously alive and well, why don't you go find me? Why don't you recognize me!"
Su Nan tried her best not to cry, "Tongtong, I...I lost my memory. I lost my memory after the accident. I was sent to the hospital by a kind person. When I woke up, I didn't remember who I was. Who is it? When the accident happened, I happened to be with Su Nan. The doctor confused my identity with that of Su Nan, so when they did the plastic surgery, they did it based on the photos on their respective ID cards. That’s it. , I became her, and she became like me,
It was only five years ago that I regained my memory. At that time, I knew that you went to the south and went to a technical school. "
"You know everything? You know everything. Why don't you look for me? Why don't you recognize me?" Gu Tong couldn't understand, "I've been looking for you the whole time. I even thought you were no longer alive! Are you here?" Run away from Xia Zixuan, right?"
Su Nan nodded, "Yes, after the accident, in order to survive, I started making some pastries and selling them outside. Maybe it was because of God's mercy. My business was very good, and everyone especially liked to eat the pastries I made. Later, I opened the Wutong Food Processing Factory from then on until now.”
Gu Tong said, "You are Ling Fei, and that Aunt Ling Fei is Su Nan, right? You exchanged identities to escape Xia Zixuan's pursuit? Let Xia Zixuan think that Ling Fei is useless and hides in Sanitarium, so you can show off your skills, right?"
Su Nan nodded, "Yes, Ling Fei has no ability, so he will not arouse Xia Zixuan's jealousy. Therefore, after I recovered my memory five years ago, I did not change our identities. It was because of that that Aunt Su Nan suffered accidental."
"Xia Zixuan did it, right?"
Su Nan sighed, "Tongtong, I don't want to find you or get to know you, just because I can't let Xia Zixuan go. I don't want you to be implicated, do you understand?"
Gu Tong shook his head, "Don't you want me to be implicated? No, Xia Zixuan will eventually take revenge on me, so let's face it together. I have grown up and can protect you."
Su Nan burst into tears, "Tongtong, mom will never leave you again. I'm sorry, mom owes you so much, and I will definitely make up for you in the future. If you don't want to go back to the imperial capital, just stay in Shanghai with your mom, okay?" good?"
