Chapter 5 Your Life Experience

On the outskirts of Boston, two-story western-style buildings of different colors stand quietly on the quiet street. Hydrangeas and irises are blooming in the yard, and a layer of water vapor remains on the well-manicured lawn.

Gui Ye parked in front of a small gray-blue western-style building, with No. 56 written on the white house number.That's right, it's here.He knew that his aunt had been promoted to the position of director in the company in the past few years, but he didn't expect that what she said "bought a small house" was actually a two-story duplex of 200 square meters in the suburbs of Boston where the land was very expensive. , and there are many flowers whose names cannot be named. Usually, it will cost a lot of money to hire someone to take care of them.

Gui Ye straightened the shoulder bag straps, paused at the door, and finally rang the doorbell.For his aunt, he had inexplicable feelings since he was a child.It's not a mother-child relationship or an ordinary relationship between relatives, but a very delicate relationship...

My aunt has treated him like an adult since he was a child. He can't be called cold, but he can't be called warm either.When he was three years old, Aunt Song, the nanny who took him all the time, coaxed him to say that his left hand would grow back. The aunt criticized her on the phone and told her not to give children unnecessary fantasies. A disabled person is a disabled person. Change.Gui Ye still remembered that he was crying so hard at that time, and secretly hated her for a long time.

But if it weren't for his aunt, he might have died a long time ago. After all, he was abandoned by his parents when he was born, and even his last name was taken by his aunt.Sometimes he was very curious about where his biological parents were and who their surnames were, but every time he met his aunt's eyes, he lost the courage to ask.

Gui Ye was stunned for a few seconds, until the door suddenly opened with a creak. Ji Chunhan was still wearing oven gloves, and the room was full of warm baking atmosphere.

"Come on, come in!" Ji Chunhan looked at Guiye standing cautiously outside the door, like a lost kitten, and suddenly felt that he was too incompetent as an aunt.She has raised this child for so many years, but she has not been close to her. She still looks so timid... and she is about to turn 17 years old, but she still looks like a little radish. She looks like a malnourished look.

"Well, hello, auntie!" He caressed the strap of his schoolbag somewhat cautiously, and followed Ji Chunhan into the living room.

There are a few fresh blue-purple hydrangeas planted on the table. It seems that they have just been cut from the yard and are still dripping water.The whole living room is in a gray-blue style, with a gray sofa and a log coffee table, which is the sex/cold style that has been popular in recent years.Although the paintings on the wall are not by famous artists, they are in harmony with the interior decoration of the house.The crystal lamp above the head is exquisite in workmanship, and there is an old-fashioned gramophone in the corner, which looks old.There are still a few design drawings spread out on the coffee table, and the owner has obviously not been idle before.

"Auntie, the decoration of your home is so beautiful, you deserve to be an interior designer." Gui Ye stared at the few blueprints and said very sincerely.

"Really? I hired a decoration company to do it casually. I'm usually too tired to work on my own home." After she finished speaking, Guiye didn't know what to do next, and the living room fell into silence for an instant... ..

"Look at my memory, I was going to serve walnut pie when I opened the door for you!" Ji Chunhan looked at the gloves on his hand and went into the kitchen.Gui Ye followed in to see if there was anything he could do to help.But he found that the dining table was full of his favorite dishes, he suddenly felt sore eyes, and hurriedly wiped them with his sleeve.For so many years, the only person who has really treated him well is his aunt.But he couldn't even say a word of greeting to his aunt.

As soon as the oven was turned on, the aroma of walnuts and cake permeated the entire kitchen instantly, which was a hundred times more intoxicating than when he came in.

"Hurry up and eat it while it's hot! This is delicious just out of the pan!" Ji Chunhan cut a large piece for Gui Ye and served it on a plate. After coming to the United States for so many years, her Chinese food has deteriorated a lot. Only this walnut Pie is a must, every year on Christmas Eve, my colleagues would boo her to make more and bring them to the office.

Gui Ye finished eating that big piece of cake under her watchful eyes, feeling that it was so sweet that he was going to die.He has never liked to eat things that are too sweet, and this American dessert is really a bit difficult for him.However, he still praised his aunt's cooking skills against his will. Although the sweet and sour pork ribs were too salty and the spring rolls were a little undercooked, it was the dream of many wanderers to eat such a steaming home-cooked meal. contented.

After eating, Gui Ye cleaned up all the dishes and prepared to wash them.But Ji Chunhan told him to put it down, and called him to the living room to sit down, with a serious expression on his face.

Although my aunt is a serious person, she rarely shows such an expression towards Gui Ye.He just felt that the meal he had just eaten was so nervous that his stomach was churning... What on earth was his aunt going to say, making it so serious, he thought about the question he wanted to know since he was a child, but quickly dismissed it idea.Isn't the reason why my aunt asked me to come to the United States to forget everything in the country?

"Returning to the wild..." Ji Chunhan paused, not knowing what to tell him. "You have been curious about your parents since you were a child, and I never allowed you to ask. Originally, I told myself that I would tell you when you were able to accept this matter when you arrived. But... recently you Dad had an accident, so he wants me to explain to you, when he"

"I don't want to hear it!" Before Ji Chunhan could utter the word "abandoned", Guiye interrupted her angrily with his fists clenched, holding back the tears in his eyes.He guessed a thing or two since he was a child. Because his parents were born with one hand less than other babies, they directly discarded him in the hospital and left overnight. It was his aunt who saved him before he was sent to the orphanage.He really wants to know the details of his abandonment, but he is afraid that once he knows, he will never be able to forgive, so he would rather not know.In this way, there may still be a hint of fantasy.

"Guye, don't be childish. You will be 17 in a few days, and you have the right to know your own life." Ji Chunhan moved to his side, patted his back gently to comfort him, The sockets of my eyes were also red.This child has suffered too much since she was a child, and the adoption procedures in the United States are cumbersome. Besides, in the early years, her own livelihood was a problem, so she can only wait until now to take him over.For so many years, except for Aunt Song who took him at home during the winter and summer vacations, he was all alone during school. It is not easy to live a good life at such a young age.

Thinking of the news I read a few days ago, [The former incorruptible mayor was sacked for corruption and may serve 10 years in prison]. The handcuffs are conspicuous.In the corner of the photo, a woman in a blue suit has red eyes, looks about 40 years old, and looks like a beauty when she was young.Ji Chunhan never imagined that seeing the photo of his sister again would be done in this way.

Thinking about it carefully, the two sisters have not seen each other for nearly 17 years.Ji Chunhan thought, if she suddenly appeared now and stood in front of Ji Chunfang, she might not even be able to recognize him.

When she first found out that Ji Chunfang was pregnant, she was very happy as a sister for a long time.Although she was not married at that time, she worked as a waiter in a restaurant.She still often cooks soup for her after work, and she is willing to leave only after finishing all the work at home.It was one of the few happy times for the two sisters.Both of their parents left early when they were young, and Ji Chunhan became a sister and a mother to support her younger sister to go to college.Then Ji Chunfang married her college classmate Sun Kai smoothly, and the two were very sweet and at ease after marriage.Sun Kai graduated and became a civil servant. Although his salary is not high, he can afford to support his family.

The breakup begins with the arrival of Guiye.When the hospital called Ji Chunhan, she couldn't believe her ears.They actually left their own flesh and blood and left the hospital overnight.She even forgot to take off her restaurant apron, and took a taxi to the hospital.The nurse saw a woman with greasy hair and disheveled hair frantically running to the nursery, thinking it was a mentally ill mother who had come to steal the baby.She explained for a long time before those people let her in.

Gui Ye was lying quietly in the incubator like that, his left arm was bald and there was nothing.But this little life didn't know it. Looking at the person in front of him, he suddenly grinned, as if he knew that this person was going to take him home.Ji Chunhan stood there, stunned for a long time before he could react.His precious nephew was born without a left hand.Dou Da's tears fell to the ground and evaporated in an instant. At this moment, she only felt that her fate was unfair. Why could other people's family be happy, but only the Ji family had to go through so many hardships.

My sister's heart must be broken, yes, she must have been in a panic before running away.When she figured it out, she would come back to find her son.With such thoughts in mind, she carried Gui Ye away from the hospital amidst the nurses' whispers.

But for a month in a row, the phone calls to them were turned off, and no one answered when I went to their house.The two big living people just disappeared out of thin air.In the huge Shanghai, it is too easy to hide.Guiye waited for food every day, and Ji Chunhan was worried about giving him to someone else to take him with him, so he quit his job in the restaurant and worked as a part-time job for others while Guiye was sleeping at night.This kind of life lasted for two years. Halfway through, my sister and brother-in-law didn't contact her once, and Ji Chunhan completely stopped thinking about looking for them again.When Guiye was three years old, he could go to preschool, but Ji Chunhan found that he was unable to support him in school, let alone start a family and start a career.

At that time, it was very popular to go abroad to work. Not only did the wages be high, but the leading intermediary said that they also included food and housing, and they could send a lot of money home every month.Ji Chunhan thought that working hard would be a dead end, so he took out all his savings and paid Aunt Song for three months to take care of him when he returned home. The remaining money was not enough to buy a plane ticket, so he had to take a boat to the United States.But when I went there, I found out that the black heart/intermediary was only responsible for extracting the commission, and the group of them were all arranged to work in a Chinese restaurant.It's true that food and lodging are included, but it's just that four or five people live in a cramped room, where they eat, drink and drink.She sent back all the money she earned every month and asked Aunt Song to exchange it into RMB, and exchanged it for a better international kindergarten for Guiye.

Ji Chunhan didn't want to think back to those years, she even thought, if possible, she would hide Guiye's biological parents for the rest of her life.Even telling him that he is an orphan is better than now.
