Most of the small towns are self-built houses with one or two floors. This place was originally just tiles, but it is actually just a simple rural place.
But I don’t know since when, the young people here began to work outside the country and send money back, and this town gradually became what it is now.
The summer of 2003 was sunny.
In a small two-story house in a small town, two men and a woman looked at each other like this.
The man of the house obviously didn't intend to invite the couple in front of him... He even had this look of disgust on his face.
"Shen Meixuan, why did you come back? Is this your new mistress? What? Did you bring him back to ridicule me?"
"Why are you talking?" Gu Feng frowned at this time, and there was anger in his eyes.
But the wife beside him officially obtained the certificate three months ago, and they are now a legal couple.
Shen Meixuan reached out and pulled his sleeve.
It has been a full year since she was separated from the man in front of her. Her appearance has changed. She could only hear her saying calmly: "I called you several times. Your mother answered the phone last time. I said It’s very clear. So, when I came back this time, I brought Jiahui over too.”
"What did you say? Say it again?" When the man heard this, he shouted even louder: "You bitch! It wasn't enough to take away my son last time. Do you want to take Jiahui away this time too?" ?No way! Don’t even think about dying!"
Shen Mei took a deep breath and said calmly: "I asked around and heard that you got sick when you were working in a factory outside. It was tuberculosis. The factory no longer wants you, and you have not received compensation. In your current situation, you Can you give Jiahui a good growing environment?"
As he said that, Gu Feng beside him had a look of reluctance on his face, but he still took out a check from his suit bag: "You can use the money for medical treatment, and leave Mei Xuan's child to us to take care of. You give up your custody rights to him."
The man glared, snatched the check from Gu Feng's hand and tore it into pieces, "Get out! Don't let me see you again! Get out!!"
Gu Feng's face changed slightly, and Shen Meixuan took a deep breath and said: "Liu Cheng, I just want to talk to you when I come back this time. You need the money to treat your illness, and you really don't have the ability to take care of yourself properly." Everyone Hui, don't be stubborn. Let me take him away. If I have time, I can also let you meet. I just want to solve this matter properly and don't force me to go to the law... You know, your situation is not at all Not optimistic."
"Even if I die, I can't let you take Jiahui away! He is my son!" Liu Cheng roared.
"Jiahui! Jiahui, are you at home? Mom is back, Jiahui, mom is back, come out and see me! Jiahui!"
Shen Meixuan was so familiar with this house that she walked in immediately and shouted loudly.
Unexpectedly, this directly pushed Liu Cheng's anger to the peak. He grabbed Shen Meixuan's hand in an instant and pulled her out: "You are not from this family! I didn't let you in, get out!!"
"Liu Cheng! No matter what, let me Xu Jiahui! He is also my child! You have no right to stop me from seeing him! Liu Cheng, let go! Let go!!"
"See you! Let's meet you when you are dead!" Liu Cheng yelled at this time: "Let's see if he still recognizes you, the mother who doesn't want him, in the underworld!"
"What did you say?" Shen Meixuan's expression suddenly changed dramatically.
"He's dead!" Liu Cheng shook off Shen Meixuan's hand and snorted coldly.
"how come……"
…
"This is his tomb. If you don't believe it, dig it up and take a look! Let me see if you, a mother-in-law, dare to dig up your son's grave!"
On a nearby hilltop, Liu Cheng looked embarrassed and haggard while drinking Erguotou bought on the road.
"Jiahui..."
Shen Meixuan suddenly knelt in front of the tomb with a pale face. She touched the name on the tombstone with trembling fingers. She didn't say anything, but just touched the name over and over again.
"When did it happen? Why did a good child die just when he said he was going to die?" Gu Feng was very calm. At this time, he frowned, grabbed Liu Cheng's collar with one hand, and asked loudly.
"This mother is cruel enough to run away!" Liu Cheng snorted coldly: "Shen Meixuan, your son sits in front of the door every day waiting for you to come back. Have you ever seen him when you came back? You haven't! This child is sad, he
I ran away from home to find you! One heavy rainy day! Then I fell into the pond and was buried to death! You vicious woman! Do you still have the nerve to come back?"
"Be careful what you say!" Gu Feng bumped into him.
Seeing that the two people were about to start a fight, Shen Meixuan suddenly trembled, threw Liu Cheng to the ground, and started biting him: "You lied to me! My son is not dead... You lied to me! You
Lie to me!! I don’t believe it! You lie to me!! You lie to me!!”
"Give me back the baby!!! Give me back!!!"
…
"Child, give it back to me, give it back to me!!"
A sudden scream rang out in the ward. The shrill and indignant voice woke up the two people in the ward from their drowsiness.
Ma Houde looked at Shen Meixuan who finally woke up, saw a drop of sweat on her forehead, and quickly stepped forward and said: "Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu, calm down. You are just dreaming, dreaming, calm down, calm down."
"I...where am I?" Shen Meixuan looked around blankly.
"You suddenly fainted, so we sent you to the hospital." Ma ir said now: "The doctor said that you are in poor health and are severely anemic. You need to take a good rest."
"My son, my son!" Shen Meixuan nervously grasped the clothes on Ma Houde's arm, "My son, my son!"
"Relax, relax." Mahoude said hurriedly at this time: "While you were fainting, I asked someone to check the household registration. We know where he is. He is indeed here, and he is also here.
The hospital is just in the Third Hospital."
"He...he is here?" Shen Meixuan was stunned.
Ma Houde nodded and said: "Well, we don't know the environment where Liu Jiahui grew up. But we found out that Liu Cheng died of illness six years ago. Liu Jiahui and her grandmother depended on each other. Your mother-in-law... No, Liu Cheng's
My mother’s name is He Xiaomei, right?”
"She...her name is He Xiaomei."
"That's it." Ma Houde said: "According to the records, He Xiaomei came to the Third Hospital here for a gastrectomy some time ago. Her mother is still recuperating in the Third Hospital, and the name written on her family name is Liu Jiahui.
.So, the one who has been following you recently should be your other son, Liu Jiahui, that’s right.”
"Jiahui..."
Shen Meixuan was stunned.
She lowered her head slowly and recited the word "Jiahui". She didn't know what to say for a moment... He, how could he...
Jiajie is missing now, and Liu Jiahui suddenly appears and is still alive...
She inserted both hands into her head at the same time and hugged her tightly.
After a long time, she suddenly raised her head: "Officer Ma, can you take me to see him? There are some things I want to ask clearly."
"Okay." Mahoude nodded: "I'll talk to the doctor, there should be no problem."
She was taken away from this hospital and headed towards another hospital. There were no accidents on the way.
The young police officers and Ma Houde in the driver's seat and passenger seat occasionally looked at Shen Meixuan's appearance in the rearview mirror, watching her blankly leaning her head against the car window, silently looking at the street.
The retreating shadows sighed silently.
They thought that for this woman, the death of the son she had raised might be a despair, but if another child who had been away since childhood could come back to her...
I hope it can help her get over her grief.
Soon, they arrived at the third hospital where He Xiaomei was staying.
"Officer, this is the room." The nurse led the person to the door of the ward.
Shen Mei slowly pressed her hand on the door. She hesitated for a long time, then took a deep breath, pushed it open, and walked in first.
At this time, Ma Er felt that he should not go in. What he wanted to hear could actually be heard outside the door. He waved his hand and asked the young police officer to stay outside the door.
The two of them leaned against the wall and listened quietly to the goings on in the room.
When He Xiaomei's appearance appeared in Shen Meixuan's sight, she was obviously at a loss. The old man lying on the bed was obviously much older than she remembered.
I'm afraid it's because of the postoperative period.
Gray and sparse head, deep-set eye sockets, dark and rough skin. The quilt was covered on He Xiaomei's body, and her sickly head had been shaken, but she was looking out the window silently, as if waiting.
Who is coming back?
After taking two steps forward, Shen Meixuan couldn't think of what she should call this old man.
It doesn't seem appropriate to call it anything.
Suddenly, the old man turned his face, and she might have heard the noise. The moment the two people's eyes met, Shen Meixuan subconsciously shouted: "Mom..."
But she soon realized what she had said and stopped.
"Who are you?" He Xiaomei was a little confused. The old man smiled kindly, shook his head and said, "My eyes are not very good. Come over here and let me see clearly."
"It's me." Shen Meixuan took a deep breath, walked to the bed and sat down, "I'm Meixuan, do you remember me."
The old man's hand was suddenly frightened and pulled out from under the quilt.
She moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything for a while. After a long time, He Xiaomei put down her hand, but she quickly reached out excitedly and grasped Shen Meixuan's palm, "
Is it really you? Meixuan, is it really you?"
She even stretched out her hands, gently held Shen Meixuan's face, and touched it carefully, "Unexpectedly...unexpectedly, I will still see you one day."
Shen Meixuan took a deep breath at this time: "I heard that you had an operation in this hospital..."
As she said that, she grabbed the old man's hand and said, "You...can you tell me who sent you here?"
"I knew that this matter could never be hidden..." He Xiaomei shook her head, suddenly propped herself up, and walked off the bed.
Seeing that He Xiaomei was about to kneel on the ground, Shen Meixuan suddenly panicked, "Mom, what are you going to do!"
"I'm sorry, Mei Xuan, I'm sorry for you! We lied to you, we lied to you!"
The old man didn't want to get up, so he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "Back then, you called back and said you wanted to take Jiahui away too. I panicked and told you Liu Cheng... Alas, we didn't mean it, but
...Liu Cheng made a fake grave and deceived you. Liu Cheng knew that you would give up on this idea only when you knew that Jiahui was gone, so...so..."
Shen Meixuan suddenly collapsed on the ground, shaking her head slightly, her vision seemed to lose focus, "Jiahui... Jiahui... not dead... not dead... Jiahui... ah!"
!!Ah!!!!Ah!!!!!”
Shen Meixuan suddenly screamed and screamed at He Xiaomei. The pain that had been buried in her heart for more than ten years was released without reservation.
"You!! You... how could you do this to me!! How could you do this to me!! Ah!!! Ah!!! You lied to me!! You... how could you... do this... do this..."
She coughed dryly, as if she wanted to vomit, and slowly pressed her hands to the ground, dripping with tears, "This...does this to me..."
He Xiaomei could only hug her tightly with pain and guilt, and she also burst into tears, "I'm sorry, Mei Xu, I'm sorry..."
Ah!!!!Ah!!!!
She was still screaming.
She was afraid that this was the only way she could breathe.
…
"Listen, I'll go outside to smoke a cigarette and tell me later."
The movement in the room was still there, but Ma Er suddenly patted the young police officer next to him on the shoulder and walked away.
Although he has been handling cases for so many years, the young police officer still knows that Ma Er sometimes has a lot of tear ducts. He also shook his head. Ma Er is also a father, so he can probably feel this kind of pain.
The room was silent for a long time, and then some sounds started to appear again.
Shen Meixuan's voice.
"Jiahui... has he lived well these years?" Shen Meixuan looked at He Xiaomei, her eyes still red, and choked up: "That person... Liu Cheng had already... a few years ago... why don't you
Come to me?"
He Xiaomei sighed and said: "I don't know how to have sex with you... Jiahui, he actually doesn't know you either. When the child was still young, Liu Chenggong told him that you were dead... I didn't dare to sleep with Jiahui
Even if I tell the truth, I don’t have the shame to tell him.”
"Then now..."
"A few months ago, I got sick." He Xiaomei said sadly: "I felt like I was dying, so I told him the truth. I was afraid that after I left, he would really have no relatives. This child
It's so pitiful. Liu Cheng's illness lasted for several years. When he was ill, he had a bad temper and would beat the child. I, an old man, couldn't protect myself several times... I thought about taking him away.
I went to look for you, but there was a huge crowd, and I didn’t know where to look for you. I secretly went to the place where you worked before and asked, but the people there said there was no news about you..."
This old man probably didn't want his grandson to be taken away, so he half-heartedly agreed to Liu Cheng...her son's approach.
It's not that Shen Meixuan can't understand He Xiaomei... if it were her, I'm afraid it wouldn't be any better.
But understanding it didn't make her relieved that it was another matter.
Shen Meixuan has calmed down. Now that she knows that her other son is not dead and is still alive and well, this is probably the best news in this period of time.
"You...how much money do you have for the surgery?"
"Jiahui lost the house in his hometown and even the land, and borrowed some money from others to get enough." He Xiaomei shook her head: "I am old and don't want to drag him down, but the child refused. He hugged me
, saying that if I don’t do this operation, he will die in front of me...I...what else can I say?"
She sighed and said: "The doctor said that I am too old. Even if the operation is performed, it may not be successful... I thought that if I really die, I can't leave this child alone.
Tell the truth."
She then grabbed Shen Meixuan's arm: "You are here! Did Jiahui find you? During this period, Jiahui ran out whenever he had time. I know he must be looking for you. Yes.
Now, where is Jiajie? Is he okay? Can...can I see him?"
Facing this old man whom she once respected but now resented, Shen Meixuan didn't know what to say to her.
This old man is already like this, can he bear such grief?
"He...he's very good." Shen Meixuan turned away, "We sent him to study abroad."
She could only hide it for the time being...and she was so upset.
Gu Jiajie doesn’t know where he is now.
"Really...that's it."
For He Xiaomei, this may be the best news she has heard during this period. At least the other grandson she has missed for more than ten years has become successful again.
…
Mari looked irritable and was smoking.
He was walking around outside the hospital building when he suddenly saw a guy head-on who dropped the food he was carrying.
It's a bowl of hot porridge.
But he turned around and ran away!
"Don't run!" Ma Houde flicked the cigarette butt and chased after him, "Liu Jiahui! Don't run! Don't run!!"
Chased out.
