Chapter 165(1/2)
The three brothers were so shocked by the old dean's words that they didn't say for a long time.
The old dean patted Ye Huan on the back of the head and said, "Follow up, I'll tell you the details in the future."
Ye Huan was shocked and looked at the monkey Zhang San, then the three of them ran away.
The three of them ran very fast, and only the whistling sound of the wind could be heard in their ears. Neon signs kept flashing in front of their eyes, reflecting the faces of the three of them with complex expressions.
The middle-aged woman was wearing a dark green jacket and holding a teenage child. It was not difficult to identify in the crowd. Ye Huan and the others soon discovered her. She walked forward in a hurry, and Ye Huan was free.
She followed her slowly at a distance of about ten meters.
The monkey said calmly: "Brother Huan, do you want to call Qiaomu?"
Ye Huan shook her head: "Don't tell her first, this matter has not been confirmed yet. Let's talk about it later, so as not to make her happy."
The monkey grinned, showing a grey smile that was even worse than crying, and said, "Hong is happy or sad?"
Zhang San followed behind the two and cursed: "I'm so upset, so upset!"
As he was talking, Zhang San shed tears, not knowing whether it was for Qiaomu or for himself.
The monkey's eyes were red and he scolded without looking back: "San'er, let's help Qiaomu find his mother. This is a great joy. Why are you blocking?"
Zhang San cried, "Did we find it? Did Qiaomu find it? This was just an accident. It was discovered by the old dean by chance. She didn't plan to ask Qiaomu at all. Did you see the boy she was holding?
That's her child, what a fucking joy!”
Ye Huan held back her tears and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, Qiao Mu has a history. This is a happy event. Brothers, cheer up. This is the only clue, don't let us lose it."
Monkey and Zhang San wiped their tears, pursed their lips and followed the middle-aged woman without saying a word.
The middle-aged woman walked very slowly, and the little boy she was holding stopped from time to time, pointing to the food stall on the side of the road to eat this and that. The woman smiled kindly, almost responding to her request, watching the boy eat happily
The woman kept wiping her mouth with a doting smile on her face.
Ye Huan and the other two watched this scene from a distance, their hearts were tightly grabbed, and there was an inexplicable pain in their chests, which was very uncomfortable.
The kind and peaceful family affection should have been a part of Qiao Mu...
The little boy ate a lot, and the woman carefully wiped his mouth clean, then stopped a taxi and got into the car.
Ye Huan and the other two were anxious and quickly stopped a car and followed the taxi that the woman was riding.
The car drove to the intersection and happened to hit a red light. The taxi that the woman was taking was barely passing by, but Ye Huan and the others stopped.
"Master, we're in a hurry, help me and break out of this intersection. Hurry!" Ye Huan begged.
The taxi driver was surprised and said, "What a joke? There is a red light in front. Do you know how much fines you will be fined and how many points you will be deducted?"
Before Ye Huan could finish his words, he grabbed a handful of money from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand.
The driver hesitated for a moment, looked at the heavy banknotes in his hand, gritted his teeth, stepped on the accelerator and rushed over. After a while of acceleration, he finally caught up with the car the woman was in.
In the night of the capital, two taxis were chasing each other one after another. They wanted to get close, but had to keep a distance, just like Ye Huan and the other two were feeling at the moment.
What if you know where she lives? Tell Nan Qiaomu? Do you come to recognize her relatives? Or just pretend that nothing has happened?
Ye Huan was in a mess and didn't know what to do next. He only knew that he should keep up with the woman now, know her address, and then...
Then what? Qiaomu knows how will he react in the future? Will she cry or laugh? Will she... be injured?
Ye Huan almost wanted the driver to stop the car at this moment.
I just watched the woman go away with nothing. Isn’t it good to leave a good wish to let Qiao Mu live his life peacefully? Why do I have to uncover the bloody old scars and let it continue to bleed?
But Ye Huan didn't dare to let the woman disappear just like that.
No one can understand the feelings of orphans. They hate their blank first half of their lives, and they are more eager to leave something in that blank place, not seeking wealth or power, and what they want is nothing more than the word "original origin".
In this modern era where even dogs pay attention to their bloodline, why are they inferior to dogs?
The taxi where the woman was taking finally stopped in front of her. Ye Huan and the others also stopped. They sat in the car and watched the woman get out of the car, holding the little boy's hand, and slowly walked into an alley.
At the entrance of the alley, a big locust tree is towering in the sky, with the vitality of spring, mottled and old walls and dim street lights. This alley is as desolate as the old city of Ninghai. The woman walked into the alley and took out the key and opened it.
Door.
Ye Huan and the others got out of the car, and the three stood quietly in front of the door, imagining the embarrassing but contented life of the woman, and imagining the carefree and innocent appearance of the little boy. The three stood for a long time, speechless for a long time.
After remembering the address, Ye Huan called Zhou Mei and asked her to send someone to investigate all the information about the woman, and then the three of them returned to the hotel.
In the hotel, Qiao Mu was still checking the accounts of Happy Fund last month. The old dean came back alone, and the three of them entered the old dean's room with a tacit understanding.
Ye Huan lit a cigarette silently and sat on the chair and smoked, but none of the three of them spoke.
The old dean sighed and said slowly: "I hope it was dazzled. When I was watching the concert, the woman sat next to me. She looked at her a few times at that time. It was indeed too similar to that back then..."
"You have seen Qiao Mu's...mother?"
The old dean nodded and said, "I've seen it, I know Joe."
How did Mu enter the welfare home? Twenty years ago, she was a baby in her cradle. One night, a young girl hugged her and wanted to quietly put her at the welfare home. At that time, I happened to be at night
I couldn't sleep and was walking outside the yard. The girl was discovered by me as soon as she put down her child. I called her and scolded her very harshly, asking her to take the child back. She refused and knelt in front of me.
Tears were flowing, begging me to accept Qiaomu..."
"She... must have had some difficulties." Ye Huan tried hard to excuse Qiao Mu's mother.
The old dean shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not a problem. At that time, our country implemented family planning, but the girl's in-laws wanted her to give birth to a son and inherit the incense. After that, she found out that she was a girl, so she was naturally not welcomed. They wanted to have another child.
One, and he didn't want to pay a fine, and he didn't want to raise a money-losing product. After thinking about it, he planned to throw away Qiaomu."
"Qiaomu's mother knelt in front of me and begged hard. She begged me to accept Qiaomu. She said that she had married the wrong person in this life and that her husband's family was not good to her. Even if she didn't throw away Qiaomu, she would let her grow up at home.
She may not be happy, she is destined to suffer a lot, and she is forced to lose her way..."
The old dean sighed: "I saw her so pitiful at that time, and it was indeed as she said. If Qiaomu was not thrown away, she would not be very happy. If she didn't do it, she would be sold by her grandparents. My heart
As soon as he softened, he took Qiaomu and let her mother leave. This time he left for twenty years, and there was no news... That small welfare home, I don’t know how many joys and sorrows I have to see every year, the children are ignorant, little
At a young age, I don’t know how to be sad, but these joys and sorrows are really imprinted on my heart. Whenever I see any child in the yard, I can’t help but think of their life experience and want to cry for them…”
The old dean was already crying as he spoke.
"Qiaomu has always been spiritual. As soon as her mother put her in the swaddling clothes on my hand, Qiaomu grinned and cried hard. She cried all night that night. Qiaomu...she knew
It's so hard for me."
Ye Huan and the other two also shed tears.
The old dean wiped his tears and sighed: "Ye Huan has found his parents now, which is considered a perfect match. But Ye Huan's experience is a very rare one after all. All the children in the yard are carrying different miserable life experiences.
There are very few biological parents. It was a complete accident that you could meet Qiao Mu's mother in the capital tonight. You already know her mother's address. Whether to tell her or not, you can decide for yourself."
Ye Huan and the other two lowered their heads and did not make a sound for a long time.
Outside the old dean's door, there was a soft sob. Ye Huan was shocked and rushed out of the door to take a look. Qiaomu covered her mouth and knelt on the carpet in the corridor, tears flowing desperately.
"Ye Huan, I want to see her!" Qiao Mu burst into tears, and these words burst out from his mouth.
The next morning, the person sent by Zhou Mei to investigate passed back the investigation results.
This is not a difficult thing at all. Qiaomu's mother's surname is Yu and her name is Yue'e. She lives in the yard of the old hutong. She is a family of three. Her husband is a small employee of a public institution. She is nearly retired and has no hope of promotion.
Qiaomu's mother opened a small barber shop near the yard, specializing in being a neighborhood neighbor.
The business of the household has a meager income. The couple has a twelve-year-old son, who is very ordinary and an ordinary family.
Qiaomu was born in such a family.
In the morning, Ye Huan's monkey Zhang San accompanied Qiao Mu to the outside of the alley, and a small barber shop without even a sign stood at the entrance of the alley. "Is it this?" Qiao Mu turned his head and asked Ye Huan, a pain in his eyes that made people feel sad.
Ye Huan nodded and sighed: "Qiaomu, if you are not ready yet, we can..."
Qiao Mu shook his head stubbornly, and tears splashed out: "No, I want to see her!"
Ye Huan sighed and hugged her waist, as if giving her courage, hugging her tightly and step by step, slowly walking towards the small barber shop.
The barber shop is very small and has a rough decoration. It is about a few square meters in size. If you enter more than two people can't even turn your body. Yu Yue'e was sitting in front of the big mirror in a daze, not knowing that she was recalling a past incident from that year.
, she was still worried about her future livelihood. It can be seen that the business of this barber shop was not very good. Her husband, Qiao Mu's biological father, was just a small employee, and he relied on his meager salary to support his family. In the future, their son would go to school.
High school, college, you want to buy a house and get married...
For ordinary people, this is undoubtedly a huge burden.
The light inside the house dimmed. Yu Yue'e turned his head and looked out the door. Seeing a pair of young men and women dressed in neat and noble clothes staring at her blankly, Yu Yue'e hurriedly stood up and smiled and said, "Do you guys get your hair?"
As if he was afraid that the guests would think they were dirty, Yu Yue'e hurriedly patted the seat he had just sat down with a towel, and his expression showed a smile of career that he was pleased to make a living.
Nan Qiaomu looked at everything the woman in front of him did, and felt sad and couldn't help but cry again.
Ye Huan pressed her on the chair and smiled and said, "Auntie, please help her wash her hair."
"Okay," Yu Yue'e agreed without any trouble, and did not forget to support herself: "Don't look at my small shop, but my skills are still very good. Neighbors nearby come to me for haircuts..."
Carefully put a clean towel on Qiaomu's shoulders, Yu Yue'e poured a little shampoo on Qiaomu's hair, and then gently rubbed her hair.
Qiaomu closed his eyes, and could no longer hold back the tears and shed tears.
It's been twenty years, this is the first time my mother has been doing her
Washing hair is a common thing for mothers and daughters in the world, but for her, it is so luxurious that it is difficult to achieve and out of reach.
