tease

Relatives who have not been around for more than 20 years have more blood ties than strangers.This blood relationship is a natural bond that cannot be broken.She is very curious about her mother. In this world, the closest people to her mother are her grandparents and mother's twin brothers.Although she is her mother's daughter, she knows almost nothing about her mother. All she knows is a photo, the row of photo dates on the back of the photo and the words with her mother's name on it, and two Gu mentioned a few words to her, and then there was that time when I was a child.When she was young, she always wanted to find her mother and ask her grandparents, but they didn't say anything.During the Chinese New Year reunion, she saw that everyone had a mother but she didn't, so she asked Mr. Wen Shiyi again.Mr. Wen Shiyi's face darkened at that moment, and he scolded her a few words, and she reprimanded Mr. Wen Shiyi a few words, and Mr. Wen Shiyi raised his hand and slapped her.That was the only time she was beaten.The usually kind grandma got angry at that moment, and hugged her in her arms and scolded Wen Shiyi: "You did it yourself, you still have the guts to beat the child!"

Although she is young, she also vaguely knows that she has nothing to do with her mother or father.Later, when she grew up a bit, she asked her second aunt again, and her second aunt only said a few words to her.

She is loved by her grandparents, but in terms of parental relationship, what is left is a flaw that can never be made up.

When she was a child, for countless nights, she hid under the blanket and fell asleep with her mother's picture in her arms.

Dad is not at home all year round. At the beginning, there was a small bed for her in the room of her grandparents. When it was a little bigger, she had her own room and lived alone.Waking up in the middle of the night, it was eerily quiet, with only her mother's picture accompanying her.

Now that she has long passed the age of needing the love and care of her parents, she is no longer obsessed with not having a mother, but the ties from blood ties make her still want to meet her grandparents and uncles.

All in all, this is also a meeting to meet relatives, and it was the first time we met, plus her mother's affairs, Wen Zhengyu didn't want to make it miserable and make them feel sad for her, so he dressed up vigorously Neatly, this is the time to go out.

When she goes to an appointment, she always likes to pinch it.This time, when I went to see the elders, it would be more appropriate to order the toilet. She purposely arrived ten minutes earlier.

She was early and they were there before her.

The waiter pushed open the door of the box, and she saw three people sitting in the box, two of them were an elderly couple, and a tall, thin but energetic man in his early 50s.

The old couple were still talking in a low voice, when they saw her appearing at the door, they immediately turned their heads to look at her, their eyes fell on her face, and they didn't look away for a long time.

Wen Zhengyu froze on the spot.

She knew Mr. Lian.

That was several years ago, she took it to the exhibition and chatted with this old gentleman in front of her paintings for a long time.The old man's tough temperament looks like he has served in the army.He was handicapped with one leg and had a cane, but he was very eloquent and impressed her very much.

Lian Huaixin walked to the door and greeted him, "What are you doing at the door? Come in. Although it's the first time we've seen each other, my relatives, don't be nervous." While speaking, he led Wen Zhengyu inward.

Wen Zhengyu called out: "Uncle." He went in again, and called out to the old lady who was staring at her intently: "Grandma." The old lady looked about the same age as her grandfather, and the years had left deep marks on her face, but The facial features are somewhat similar to her and her mother.The old lady is very dignified, even though she is old, her eyebrows and eyes are still sharp.Her eyes are bright, and when she looks at people, she has a sense of majesty.Just from looking at each other, Wen Zhengyu knew that this was a powerful old lady.

Wen Zhengyu called out to Mr. Lian again: "Mr. Lian, Grandpa." This meeting was a bit different from what she had imagined.She thought that even if it wasn't the scene where Jia's mother met Lin Daiyu, it would be somewhat sad, and then there was a scene of holding hands and looking at each other with tears in her eyes, but she didn't expect to meet these two old people who were so majestic that they were about to hold three meetings.Wen Zhengyu couldn't help thinking: "Is this to see the grandson or the evidence that killed their daughter?" She probably has both.

Lian Huaixin greeted: "Sit down." He arranged her next to the old lady.

The old lady asked, "Is your father still abroad?"

Wen Zhengyu understood that there was still resentment in his heart.She nodded slightly and said, "No reply."

The old lady sighed heavily, and said: "I have given birth to three sons, and I was looking forward to having a daughter. When it was the fourth child, I finally gave birth to their siblings..." Tears rolled down the eyes of the old lady. Spinning around, choked up.

The old gentleman held the old lady's hand.

Wen Zhengyu was silent.Her mother's death, to Wen's family, meant that she had lost her mother, but to Lian's family, especially to her biological mother, it was tantamount to cutting flesh in her heart.She suddenly understood why her family didn't even contact her. After all, when she saw her, she thought of her mother's death and her goddam father.See you, it is better not to see you.

What is a blood relative, this is a blood relative, her mother's relatives.With them, her mother is no longer a person who doesn't want to be mentioned, and is no longer a past event that her elders can hardly mention.

What she lost was her mother.What her grandmother lost was her biological daughter who had worked so hard to raise her.

The old man said: "Look at you, just talking makes the child cry."

Wen Zhengyu realized that she was crying when she heard the old man's words. She quickly wiped her tears and said, "Grandpa, I'm fine." She quickly changed the subject and said, "I have a picture of my mother." After finishing speaking, she Pulled out the only photo she had of her mother.The photos have been yellowed and faded for many years, but she has been very careful and well preserved.When she was a child, she was afraid that it would be broken when she was asleep, so she stuck it to her chest carefully, not even daring to turn over.She doesn't like to put photos in a photo folder, so she specially made a hard-shell album of the same size as the photos for storage.When you want to look at photos, it is convenient to take them out, even if you carry them in a bag, you are not afraid of crumpling or crushing the photos.

She gave the photo to the old lady.

The old lady took the photo, stared at it for a long time, and then said: "When Jin'er passed away, we moved all her things out of Wen's house. Where did you get this photo?"

Wen Zhengyu said: "Second aunt gave it to me. I asked Mr. Wen Shiyi about my mother, and he... had some trouble with him. When Second Aunt coaxed me, she gave me the photo."

The old lady said with emotion: "That little fox!" She returned the photo to Wen Zhengyu.

Wen Zhengyu put it away carefully.

She refilled the tea for the two old men and the uncle, saw the waiter start to serve the dishes, brought up the soup, and filled them with another bowl of soup.

The old lady asked her: "Have you had a hard time this year?"

Wen Zhengyu replied: "Very good, I learned a lot, met a lot of people, and gained a lot of insight."

The old lady nodded and said, "If you encounter any difficulties, please contact your uncle."

Wen Zhengyu agreed.She asked Mr. Lian again, and said, "Old Lian...Grandpa, at my art exhibition, did you...meet you by chance or..."

Old Mr. Lian said, "By chance, I saw your face and recognized you." He suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked, "Do you still remember?"

Wen Zhengyu said: "Your old demeanor and conversation are extraordinary, impressive. Does your leg still hurt?"

Mr. Lian said: "It's windy and rainy, so it's still a little pantothenic acid, but I went to the old Chinese doctor you introduced, and it's much better, and the pain is gone."

The chatterbox opened up, and it was natural to talk about household issues.

What Wen Zhengyu knew about the members of the Lian family was limited to the names of her grandparents and several uncles that Wen Shishu had told her.Talking to them now, she only had a preliminary understanding of the Lian family, at least she knew the population.

She also said something about her recent situation.

A meal is spent chatting unknowingly.

Wen Zhengyu noticed that her grandparents had a very good relationship.The old lady hardly stretched out her chopsticks to pick up vegetables. Even the old man took the initiative to put her favorite dishes into her bowl.

Looking at them, I feel that the words of mutual affection are not enough to describe that kind of feeling.

She looked a little lost for a moment.

Mr. Lian noticed and asked, "Why are you in a daze?"

Wen Zhengyu looked away a little embarrassed, and said, "Grandpa and grandma have such a good relationship."

The old lady said with disgust: "Your grandfather is long-winded, I don't want to bother with him."

Wen Zhengyu couldn't help smiling when he heard this.

Lian Huaixin said to Wen Zhengyu: "In the future, I will come back to eat often. I will see you a lot. Just get used to it."

A meal is quite enjoyable.

After dinner, Wen Zhengyu wanted to help Mr. Lian.

As a result, even the old man with a cane in his right hand and the old lady in his left hand don't need her at all.As for the old lady, as a human crutch, there is no time to pay attention to her.

The old lady helped Mr. Lian walk to the door of the hotel, and said to her, "Come back! Have you written down my address? Come and sit down when you are free."

Wen Zhengyu nodded in response.She saw that the old lady's words and deeds belonged to the more rigid type, not a person who showed emotions.Such a strong person couldn't control his sadness when he saw her or mentioned her mother. This shows how sad Lian Huaijin's death was to her and how hard it was to let go.

Mr. Lian Huaixin walked a few steps late. When he saw Wen Jing driving the car over, he said to Wen Zhengyu, "Get in the car first."

Wen Zhengyu said: "Goodbye, uncle." Then he got into the car.

She sat in the car and waited for the car to drive out before closing the window. She sighed and stared out the window.

She could sense their deep affection for her mother, and sense their ambivalence toward her.If you want to get close, her birth is connected with Lian Huaijin's death, and if you want to distance yourself, she is Lian Huaijin's child.

Facing Lian's family, no one defended Mr. Wen Shiyi, and no one deliberately avoided the things he did. He bears a bloody life debt.

Wen Zhengyu was absent-minded for a long time, and sent a text message to Mr. Wen Shiyi on his mobile phone: "I met my grandparents and uncle today." She wanted to ask Mr. Wen Shiyi, do you feel no guilt towards them?

Soon, Mr. Wen Shiyi replied her a text message.

Wen Zhengyu was stunned when he read the text message: "Are they going to give you the dowry left by your mother?"

Her mind buzzed, and the world spun for a while, and she suddenly felt like her head was about to explode.

Soon, Mr. Wen Shiyi sent another text message: "In addition to some jewelry and things at the bottom of the box, she also has several dowry houses and ten shops. Your grandfather paid for the double dowry at that time. The discount is cash. accompany..."

Wen Zhengyu didn't finish reading, so angrily, she replied three words to Wen Shiyi: "Go to hell!" After she finished replying, she was dizzy and trembling with anger.

When the car drove home, Wen Zhengyu still couldn't control his trembling, his hands and feet were weak, and he couldn't get out of the car.

Seeing that something was wrong with Wen Zhengyu, Wen Jing called Wen Shishu to come over.

Wen Shishu came to the side of the car and asked, "What's the matter? Are you angry?"

Wen Zhengyu unlocked the phone and asked Wen Shishu to read the text message.

Wen Shishu looked at the phone and cursed angrily, "This bastard is getting more and more outrageous!" Wen Jing asked Wen Jing to help her get Wen Zhengyu out of the car, and said to Wen Zhengyu, "Don't be angry, I'll help you into the house .”

They helped Wen Zhengyu to sit on the sofa.

Wen Shishu poured water and handed it to her, and stroked Wen Zhengyu's back.Seeing old Mr. Wen Ru sitting beside him and looking at Wen Zhengyu worriedly, she was afraid that the old man would misunderstand, she shook her head slightly, and silently said two words: "The third child."

Mr. Wen Ru's eyes sank.

After Wen Zhengyu finished drinking the water, he managed to suppress his emotions, and said in a calm voice, "It's okay." After all these years, he already knew what kind of person he was.
