nosy on you

quiet investigation

There are two cities between my rigorous hometown and City C, and it takes about five hours to drive there.

It was already dark when we got off the highway.

Looking at the constantly changing scenery outside the window, Gu Xi felt a little nervous. The dust raised by the muck truck in front kept falling on the windshield, and a layer of haze gradually faded away.

This place was much more lively than expected. It was just after eight o'clock, and there were already many people sitting on the roadside barbecue stalls one after another. I don't know if those people were having dinner or supper.

The position sent by Shen Xu is the Second County Hospital, which is the smallest among the only three hospitals in the county, and it is not even comparable to the newly opened community health center in City C in recent years.

Now that the outpatient department was off work, Gu Xi found a decent hotel near the hospital to live in.

The food in the hotel restaurant was very unpalatable, so he took a few bites and threw it aside.

Gu Xi was fascinated by staring at the strict photocopy of the ID card in the phone's photo album. The idol drama on TV had finished two episodes, and he didn't hear clearly what was going on.

It's just that when I'm used to being alone, there are some voices in my ears.

There are still too few clues at hand.

Who should I go to the hospital for?

do not know……

What to ask?

You can't directly ask what is the relationship between the two babies born here on the same day 23 years ago.

Gu Xi took his clothes and walked into the bathroom. He decided to go to the "home" where Yan Yan lived in before junior high school tomorrow.

The road from the county town to the village should be newly built. Although there are only two lanes, the road surface is very smooth. The red POLO has very good passability, so there is no need to worry about being squeezed off the ridge when passing cars.

Following the house number, Gu Xi drove down a section of the ramp and saw a small western-style building with a front and back yard on the side of the road.

The architectural style of this building is very different from the boxy houses along the road. It should be built in comparison with the early villas. If it was placed more than [-] years ago, it would be quite cool.

Gu Xi parked the car in the open space next to the big iron gate, then glanced at the yard twice.

It is reasonable to say that the family environment should not be too bad to be able to live in such a house, but Yan Jing usually spends very frugally on food and clothing, and even rents a house in a chaotic and run-down cheap location like an urban village.

Is there something wrong?

Just as she was thinking about it, the brown security door under the porch suddenly opened, and a middle-aged woman in a light blue dress came out of the house with a bag of garbage.

This woman was about forty years old, with chest-length curly hair permed, when she saw Gu Xi standing outside the courtyard, she immediately showed a vigilant look on her face, and asked from a long distance, "Who are you looking for?"

"Auntie, hello..." Gu Xi immediately raised a generous and decent smile, "I am a serious elementary school classmate, our class wants to hold a class reunion, but no one knows his contact information, is he at home?" ?”

Nonsense, of course not.

Yan Yan said that his parents moved away with his younger brother a long time ago, and it is definitely not his family who live here now. Gu Xi asked this question purely to test whether this woman is familiar with their family's situation.

"Precise?" The curly-haired woman thought for a while, then slapped her thigh, "You mean Yan Dingde's eldest son, right?"

"Yes, are you his aunt?" Gu Xi didn't know whether Yan Yan had an aunt. Although the curly-haired woman's reaction was a few beats slower, at least she was sure that she knew the family.

"No, I haven't seen his aunt..." The curly-haired woman came over, but she didn't seem to want to open the door to invite him in. "Their family has been moving away for ten years, and then the house was sold to I."

"So that's the case, no wonder none of our classmates can get in touch with him." Gu Xi continued to chat with her, "This house is very beautiful, I only came here once when I was a child, and I was quite envious at that time, you must have spent a lot of money Bar."

In the past few years, he has met a lot of people of all kinds. Gu Xi is used to being flattered and flattered. Those stereotyped rhetoric are very useful if you change them casually.

The curly-haired woman raised her eyebrows triumphantly: "That's right, there is no better western-style building in the village now. When we transferred the ownership, our family paid a fine because the area of ​​the homestead exceeded the standard."

"That's worth it, the villas in the county are not so grand..." Gu Xi was almost full of praise, and took advantage of the happy conversation to get to the point, "Do you know where they moved?"

"I'm not very clear about this..." The curly-haired woman lowered her voice and said, "But I heard that Yan Dingde left the eldest son in the care of his sister, and only took away the younger son."

"They're all my sons, so you can't be so cruel?" Gu Xi also lowered his voice.

"People in the village are spreading rumors that the child is not his own..." The curly-haired woman hesitated for a while, but couldn't control her gossiping mouth, "Yan Dingde's wife is 28 years old and hasn't conceived yet. I went to see it all, and it was said that she was suffering from infertility, and I didn’t know what happened later, I gave birth as soon as I said it was born, and my stomach didn’t even get bigger, do you think it’s strange?”

Gu Xi looked at her in shock.

Such rumors in the village are generally not groundless. Neighbors meet each other every day, and any suspicious things cannot escape the eyes of the villagers. His guess seems to have been further confirmed.

"So, isn't his youngest son his own?" Gu Xi asked again.

"The youngest son is my own. Cui Manyun's belly has grown bigger every day since she was pregnant. Can this be fake?" Adopt a child."

"If the child is adopted, why do you have to say it was born by yourself?" Gu Xi continued to ask.

"Adoption doesn't sound good. Who can stand being poked in the back and called a hen that can't lay eggs..."

The curly-haired woman probably hasn't mentioned this issue to anyone for a long time, and she couldn't stop the car once she opened the chatter box, "However, Yan Dingde and the boss of the Dong family got very close during that time."

The boss of the Dong family? !

Lin Yi's mother's name is Dong Qingping, and Gu Xi remembers that he also has an uncle, what's his name?

"Are you talking about Dong Fubin and Uncle Dong?" Gu Xi tried his best to suppress his emotions.

"That's right, that's right, it's Dong Fubin..." The curly-haired woman clapped her hands excitedly, "They have a good relationship, and later Dong Fubin introduced Cui Manyun to a county obstetrician, who seemed to be surnamed Zhao or Zhou. I reckon it was this miracle doctor who cured her infertility."

Gu Xi trembled a little with excitement, and remained silent for a long time.

"Hey..." The curly-haired woman sighed, "But Yan Jing's child is also suffering. After the younger one was born, Yan Dingde, his wife and the old lady especially despised him. This family was a million households in our village more than 20 years ago. Yes, but the strict food and clothing are not as good as those of the five-guarantee household..."

The woman was still chanting, but Gu Xi felt like a piece of chewed gum was stuck in his trachea, his lungs were about to burst, and his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't hear anything except his own heartbeat.

"Thank you, I'll be leaving first." Gu Xi said with the corner of his mouth pulled, then turned and walked towards the car.

The curly-haired woman leaned against the iron gate and shouted: "Don't tell people about this!"

It was past meal time when we returned to the county. Gu Xi ordered a bowl of spicy beef noodles from the exquisitely decorated small noodle restaurant next to the hospital. He kept staring at the lumpy noodles in the soup without moving his chopsticks.

The noodle shop was filled with a strong aroma of pepper and beef, but he seemed to have his nose blocked and could smell nothing.

No appetite……

Sitting there until 02:30, he got up to pay the bill, and walked quickly into the outpatient hall of the hospital.

Although he had a strong resistance and resistance to the hospital since he was a child, but this time he did not hesitate at all, and even the smell of disinfectant was automatically blocked.

There was a doctor at the consultation desk, a pretty young girl. Gu Xi greeted her while reciting her lines silently: "Hello, is Dr. Zhao from the obstetrics and gynecology department coming for consultation today?"

The little girl clicked on the touch screen a few times: "I'm sorry, there is no doctor named Zhao in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Did you remember the wrong person?"

Gu Xi was stunned, no one with the surname Zhao?That is the surname Zhou!

He asked again: "Is there a doctor named Zhou?"

"Yes..." The little girl nodded with a smile, "But Dr. Zhou is not here today, you can make an appointment to come next Wednesday."

If you make an appointment for next Wednesday, you will have to live here for a week, but at least with this person, it is worth waiting a few days, Gu Xi suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, and thanked her with a smile.

After hanging an appointment number at the window, he didn't know where to go.

He has been to many places during his travels before, but this city in the province is very unfamiliar to him. If he is rigorous, he can be a guide for him.

I don't know what rigorous is doing now?

Hold!It's been a day and a night without even a text message.

By the way, since Yan Jing has been living with his aunt since junior high school, his aunt may know the whole story clearly. If he can find this person, all the mysteries will naturally come to light.

Gu Xi took out her phone and sent a message to Shen Xu.

-Help me find out what Yan Dingde's sister's name is and where she lives.

-Okay, how is your side going, are you coming back today?

- I'm going to be here for a while.

Gu Xi hasn't shown up for a week since he got off the night shift that day. Yan Yan went to 502 and knocked on the door twice, but no one responded, but when he looked in through the crack of the curtain, everything was still there.

What's even more strange is that Xie Yang applied to be transferred to his class after he disappeared, and went in and out with him every day, following him wherever he went like a shadow, and they almost didn't take a shower together.

"Did he ask you to follow me?" Yan Jing sat on the edge of the bed and stared helplessly at Xie Yang who was on the upper bunk.

"He? Which him?" Xie Yang asked back with a smile.

The rigorous and tireless research ended in failure again. He sighed, took out his phone and clicked on WeChat.

Gu Xi's circle of friends has not been updated, it is still the picture of peanuts.

It seems that nothing special has happened during this period. What kind of temper is this person playing? He won't feel that he has been slighted just because he answered the phone, right?

Rigorously open the dialog.

After entering the three words "where are you", it was deleted immediately.

Screw you!
