Lin Yuewei bounced off the bed: "What?!"
She almost thought that she had lost her memory or was too busy, so she directly cleared this part of her memory.
Gu Yanqiu said: "You haven't lost your memory, it's because I haven't thought about how to tell you."
Mr. Liu found out that Gu Yanqiu's mother Chen Huaiyu's hometown, Yangqing Village, was not long after, during the Lin Yuewei training camp. Gu Yanqiu came to see her in City N, and received a call from Mr. Liu the day after returning.
Mr. Liu is used to strange cases, but this year's generation is very different. He is no longer surprised by Chen Huaiyu.
Mr. Liu: "I have found out and found several elderly people from Yangqing Village back then. One of them is a relative of the Shen family. Should you wait for a while to come here? I will tell you in detail, and I'll give you a brief explanation on the phone first."
Gu Yanqiu was silent for a long time. The original feeling of uneasiness once again captured her senses. She said: "Give me the address, I'll go there this weekend."
Gu Yanqiu was not afraid of anything, but she didn't like the state of being slightest understanding. She couldn't fly immediately, so she delayed the time to know the truth by a few days.
"That weekend?" Lin Yuewei recalled what message Gu Yanqiu sent her those days. She could only remember acting in her mind. She transferred back to check the chat records. Apart from a few good mornings and good nights, she just asked if she had eaten. It was no different from every day in normal times.
Lin Yuewei said unhappily: "You don't tell me what you know?"
Gu Yanqiu: "It was similar to what I expected, but it might be an incredible result for you."
Lin Yuewei: "What incredible result? Come and listen to me?"
After more than a week of relief, Gu Yanqiu had almost digested it, so he told Lin Yuewei all the guesses Mr. Liu found and she had previously assumed.
Gu Yanqiu said: "Do you remember that one day Gu Feiquan asked me to cooperate with me. Do you blurt out the words you said before we went to the movie tonight?"
"Remember."
Lin Yuewei said: Have you ever thought about the possibility that your mother knew about the existence of He Songjun and his son during her lifetime, and that they were connected.
Lin Yue narrowed her eyes slightly: "So this sentence..."
Gu Yanqiu said: "I think it makes sense, so after I went back that day, I didn't sleep all night. Based on this possibility as a premise, a series of results were inferred. I found that once this premise was there, many things were not that complicated. Why was my father so anxious to marry He Songjun? Could it be my mother's last wish? Gu Feiquan told me that he had seen my father crying at my mother's relics late at night. I don't think he loved He Songjun. Even if he felt guilty, my father was a businessman and a successful person who gained fame and fortune. The series of things he did, put aside my identity as his daughter, was stupid from the perspective of bystanders. One word explanation is that there is no need, no need to do so terrible, and so criticized."
"I followed this chain of clues and pushed back. So why did my mother ask him to marry He Songjun? First, he really sorry to He Songjun; second, my mother doesn't love my father, doesn't care, or she loves my father too much, and doesn't care about him. She even asked him to make up for his mistakes and marry someone else soon after she died."
Lin Yuewei: “…”
Gu Yanqiu asked her: "Which of these two do you think is more likely?"
Lin Yuewei dared not say it, but she already had the answer in her heart.
It's more like the first type, the second type. If you really love someone, you will never do such a thing, unless Chen Huaiyu is a self-sacrifice. If she is really a saint, why don't she give up Mrs. Gu's position as soon as she knows that He Songjun is there, but will not end up after her death. Gu Huai immediately married someone else, which indirectly shows how strong Chen Huaiyu's last wish is.
Lin Yuewei didn't know if there were such people in the world, she definitely wasn't. If she knew that Gu Yanqiu had a mistress, she would beat her up first and then talk about it, and then let her go as far as she could leave the house, it would be better to be poor all her life.
Gu Yanqiu said calmly: "I think it is the first type. My mother doesn't love my dad."
Lin Yuewei was not good at expressing her opinions on her family affairs, so she could only say "um" softly to show that she was still listening and asked her to continue speaking.
Gu Yanqiu said: "There are three evidences, but none of them are sure. Most of my guesses are. First, it is what I just told you that she is very likely the person who prompted my father to marry He Songjun; second, according to Gu Feiquan's story, he met my mother when he was a student. My mother was very likely to know him, so naturally he might have known about the existence of He Songjun and his son. Third, my impression of my mother over the years has been very... In today's words, she is a Buddha. It's not fake because she can't get anything, but really doesn't care about anything. Do you have to have some desires when you live in the world? I have, and you have too."
The pure little foal caught off guard and sprained her ankle in Lin Yuewei's mind. She changed her sitting position and was so sane that she ran away.
Gu Yanqiu said: "But she didn't. I didn't see her excited about that incident. My father made the first big money in the company, or successfully raised funds, and I was admitted to a good school. For things like this, my father was so happy that he was like something. My mother... it wasn't that she was indifferent, she would be happy for us, but it felt like, my father and I were a family, she was another family, and there was a layer of happiness.
"She has no personal life, no family or friends, nor does she have a relationship with her sisters like your mother, she is very affectionate with her husband, and occasionally goes out for a honeymoon. My dad has taken her out for a trip, and I have heard of invitations several times, but she usually only promises once in ten times. Do you think this is love?
"In addition, if a guess is a coincidence, will so many coincidences still be coincidences? At least there is a 70% or 80% probability. This conclusion is true."
A question emerged in Lin Yuewei's mind. Just as he was thinking about whether to ask, Gu Yanqiu thought of a place with her.
"Since she doesn't love my dad, who do she loves?"
"It's also possible that she doesn't love anyone."
"She really doesn't love anyone."
"What?" Lin Yuewei was surprised by her understatement. Isn't this her mother? Why did she suddenly become so disrespectful?
"A person dies like a lamp that goes out. Besides, love or not is too illusory, right?" Gu Yanqiu seemed to have added a sentence temporarily.
"...Yes." Lin Yuewei thought, there should be something else.
Without giving her time to think about the result, Gu Yanqiu said again: "Do you still remember my grandma? She fell off a wheelchair last time."
"Remember."
"Do you remember what we were doing at that time?"
“What are you doing?”
"Remember it."
Recalling. Lin Yue narrowed her eyes slightly. At that time, Gu Yanqiu went to the inner room to find a photo album. She was responsible for accompanying Mrs. Gao outside. Then Gu Yanqiu came out. As soon as she walked towards Gu Yanqiu, she didn't even have time to say a few words, Mrs. Gao fell down not far away from them.
"What are you doing..." Lin Yuewei murmured, flashing the clip back and forth, and a sudden flash of inspiration in her mind, "Is it because of the two of us?"
"I can't think of any other reason."
"Why?"
"I was wondering whether she treated us as someone, or that this scene had been staged in front of her, and she was deeply impressed by this scene and had a psychological shadow." Gu Yanqiu said, "Also, after you said my grandma fell down, she said a few intermittent words."
"No, here, no, dad. These."
"The only thing we can be sure of is that 'Dad' refers to my deceased grandfather. The third word is hard to guess. As long as the first two words are thought in that direction, they will be solved."
Lin Yue said with a happy heart and said calmly: "You can't be together."
"Same as I thought."
"Cheng Yong from Gaoshan County said that he had seen my mother go to find my grandma, but her grandma drove her out and there were tears on her face. Director Fang of the nursing home said that my mother came to see her grandma once every six months. It was very good when it was good. Most of the time it would anger the old lady. The old lady would get started. I have never figured out what kind of deep hatred can make the mother and daughter turn against each other. In the mind of a woman, who is the most important person?"
"Husband and children."
"Yes, husband and child, my grandfather died, I don't know how he died, Cheng Yong asked, but grandma was very secretive about it. She was very secretive about her dead husband and kept silent about her daughter outside. What would it be? One day after her daughter came home, her mother got angry and refused to recognize her and drove her out of the house. What would you think? "
"Is the death of my husband related to my daughter?" Lin Yuewei frowned. Apart from this, she couldn't think of any other connection. Both of them were close relatives and loved ones, and they couldn't bear to give up either. They didn't recognize either. Either the husband and daughter stood on the same front and did something that angered her, or one person died because of another, or a large part of the reason was because of another. If it was the first type, it would be impossible for the old lady to place Grandpa Gu Yanqiu's portrait at home and worship him every day.
Gu Yanqiu did not answer this question and raised another question: "Do you think a mother would be so upset for more than 20 years and can't let go of anything. What would it be like if she reacted so much? Why would she say so firmly that 'can't be together'? She was already fifty when she moved to Gaoshan County. Why did she take such a big risk to leave her hometown at this age? Judging from her later miserable life, her leaving her hometown is more like being forced."
Contact Gu Yanqiu mentioned earlier that Mrs. Gao was so responsive when she saw them appearing in front of her at the same time, so...
Lin Yuewei's pupils suddenly shrank.
Could it be...
The young girls from Takayama Prefecture came to her eyes at the same time.
-I also have a girlfriend, but my family doesn't agree with me being with her.
-Same-sex marriage has been legal for two years, and they are still old-fashioned, saying that men and women are natural, while women and women are ruthless and affect human relations. They will be sorry for their ancestors when they fall into the underworld.
Gu Yanqiu let out a long breath: "These were all my guesses before."
Lin Yuewei waited for her next sentence.
Gu Yanqiu said: "What Mr. Liu found told me that these are not speculations, but facts. Except for the fact that there is no progress in the matter with He Songjun and his son, everything else is facts."
So Gu Yanqiu went to Yangqing Village in the past - now it is affiliated with a prefecture-level city, and Yangqing Village has long been gone. Times have changed, and it is very difficult to find out, but some things have happened and will always leave traces.
Mr. Liu found a cousin of Chen Huaiyu, a cousin of Gu Yanqiu's grandfather, and Gu Yanqiu's third grandfather. After thirty years, the brothers in the countryside lived in the same village. When they heard about each other, the whole village knew about which family was a little bit of noise.
Grandpa Is Seventy Years This year, wearing dentures, and the children are all good at it. He takes him to the city. Now he lives a very moist life and looks red.
When I saw Gu Yanqiu for the first time, I stared at her for a long time, sighed and said a word: "Like."
He slapped two old cigarettes and said, "It's really like."
Gu Yanqiu said: "Three Grandpa."
Grandpa San said "ah" and agreed, saying, "He looks really like your mother, as beautiful as his mother." His turbid old eyes narrowed and recalled some old things with a look of nostalgia. "At that time, Xiaoyu, also your mother, was a famous beauty in the countryside. She was obviously a girl who grew up in the countryside. She looked like a city man in both skin and appearance. When she was just thirteen or fourteen years old, the person who was proposing to marry broke the threshold."
"My elder brother, your grandfather, is his name. His elder brother picked up a shoulder pole and drove all the people who were asking for marriage out. The elder sister-in-law cursed at the door with her waist and said, "Everyone is shameless, right? I have said it many times. My daughter is going to go to college. She is not in a hurry to get married, she will get out of here."
Gu Yanqiu showed some doubts.
Grandpa San explained: "You don't know, we are just like this here. If you don't say it clearly, you'll be ruthless. There are even more troublesome things. My elder brother and sister-in-law drove away wave after wave, and it was like an indestructible fly. Xiaoyu went to school, and there were a bunch of big guys behind her, calling her escort. Who doesn't know what they were thinking?
"My elder brother, I checked the young men one by one, and then asked their parents to educate them. If they really couldn't do it, they just took the shoulder pole and slapped them. They scolded them: 'Let you be ungrateful, let you be ungrateful, let you be ungrateful, stay away from my daughter'. Later, I made a bottle of chili water for Xiaoyu, which could be sprayed. I would spray him when I saw a ungrateful boy."
Gu Yanqiu smiled a little. She knew nothing about her mother's past and the relatives here. Through the story of her third grandfather, a specific picture appeared in her mind.
It’s really hard for her mother to grow up, and her parents are worried.
Grandpa San squinted his eyes and smiled: "Xiaoyu is also cruel. He will give up the bottle of chili water, and he will not keep any affection. Moreover, he is a half-sized man, and no one wants to do anything. He is idle and he will retreat when he sees this situation. Isn't it shameless to be a human being?"
Lin Yuewei also smiled and a hint of doubt arose in her heart: Xiaoyu, who was mentioned by the third grandfather, was very different from Chen Huaiyu, whom she knew, so it was because of what happened next?
"Xiaoyu lived up to expectations and was admitted to the university. The first high school student in our village, the first college student, and the first famous university student. At that time, the university was not as easy as it is now, and it was not easy to pass the exam. Our whole village, from house to house, with lights and colorful decorations, and the elder brothers were placing a sermon. This was a great joy for the whole village. We, especially my elder brother and sister-in-law, will finally come in the future. The bachelors in the village will not come to propose marriage again. Are college students? Are they worthy of it? It is an honor to take a look at it from afar."
"But we didn't expect..." Grandpa San smoked a cigarette, muffled his voice, and stopped talking.
Gu Yanqiu pinched the knuckles of the rest of his fingers one by one with his thumbs, picked up the water cup at hand and drank a sip of water.
The smoke lingered on the third grandfather's lips and a long sigh came out: "We didn't expect that how a smart and filial child would become like that."
"What has it become?"
Grandpa San looked at her, then looked around, and thought of something, shook his head and said, "I forgot that the world is different." He turned abruptly and said, "But it was not possible in our era. Girls and girls are still married, and they still have to get married, what do you mean?"
Gu Yanqiu: "What did you say?"
Grandpa San said: "In the summer vacation of the first year of college, your mother took a female classmate home. She was a serious child in the city. She was dressed so rich. The eldest brother and sister-in-law killed the only hen in the family that lay eggs and stewed the soup and entertained others. You must know that she was... a... a... a... a person who brought Xiaoyu into a pervert. Not to mention chicken, the eldest brother would not give her a grain of rice."
Grandpa San looked at Gu Yanqiu again, and said with relief and regret: "Fortunately, she was lost and turned back, and she left the right path. With you, my elder brother, I should be in peace with my eyes if I know you in the spring."
"Grandpa San, you're off topic."
"I will continue." Grandpa sucked the clouds and spitted the mist. The smoke in the air became more and more. He spoke slowly in it, "I only found out later. That summer, Xiaoyu's female classmate stayed at her house for about ten days. She returned to the city. Xiaoyu followed her back. I stayed for a while on the day she left, but she was very determined, her eyes seemed a little red, and now she can't remember it clearly. Maybe I remembered it wrong."
Grandpa San: "I didn't think so much at that time, but Xiaoyu didn't come back during the winter vacation that year. I asked my elder brother and sister-in-law. My elder brother and sister-in-law were silent for a while and said that she had to work in the city to make money during the Chinese New Year. Now the children outside are popular with this, which is called part-time work and study. I don't know where I can't go back after schooling for a while. My elder brother and sister-in-law didn't say anything.
"In the summer vacation of the second year, she still didn't come back. My elder brother said she was working again. The summer vacation was long and she earned a lot, so I still didn't doubt it. Now I think about it. My sister-in-law's eyes were red and she was about to cry. I didn't think much about it. The third year, the fourth year, the fourth year, the fourth year, the fourth year, but the atmosphere at my elder brother's house was very strange. She left again on the first day of the New Year.
"At this time, I realized something was wrong. I went to ask my elder brother and sister-in-law what was going on. My elder brother didn't speak, he never smoked. Xiaoyu spent a lot of money to go to school, and every penny was taken out of his teeth. That day, he grabbed my cigarette pole and smoked a bag silently. My elder sister cried intermittently and told me the matter. It turned out that the female classmate Xiaoyu brought back to the first summer vacation was not a simple female classmate, but her girlfriend. Are you ridiculous?
Gu Yanqiu had only one thought in his mind: Sure enough.
It's true, not actually.
Grandpa San continued: "Brother was furious, and the father and daughter had a big fight, and the eldest brother drove Xiaoyu out of the house. So that summer vacation, Xiaoyu only stayed at home for about ten days and left, and he didn't come back later. During the winter vacation when she was about to graduate from her senior year, she came back, but it was not because things had turned around, but because she planned to go to another farther city, go to Yanning, stay with her girlfriend, and notify her parents when she came back."
Grandpa San smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know what's wrong with this child. I've been determined to eat the weight. For a bad girlfriend, I don't even want my parents who have raised her for so many years and sent her to college. I'm a little-eyed wolf."
"What happened later?"
"I haven't seen her before."
“I’ve never seen you again?”
"No, I moved into the city later, the village was demolished, and an industrial park was built. She may have come back later, but she probably couldn't find where her home was."
Gu Yanqiu was silent for a moment and asked, "How did my grandfather die?"
Grandpa San took a sip of cigarette hard, and after a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Car accident."
"How did you get into a car accident?"
"It's been a long time, decades, it's been one year or two years since your mother graduated from university." Grandpa San squinted his eyes, not wanting to recall this memory in his long life, "Is the country's water conservancy construction? The government's funding, my brother is lucky, the land is in a good position at home, and he has taken a lot of advantage. Some people look at him and want to change it with him. So do you think it can be changed? Land is the life of our farmers. He has a little conflict with that family."
"If I knew something would happen to him, I would definitely not advise him to drink that wine." Grandpa San took a deep breath of cigarettes, his throat became dry, and he drank another sip of water. His two old hands couldn't help but tremble.
Gu Yanqiu waited for a while before hearing him shaking his throat and continuing to say:
"There is a boy in the east end of the village. He got married and married a girl from the county. He is quite rich. The banquet was set up in the county town, and a big hotel was booked, and more than ten tables were invited. Most of the people in the village went to the dinner table. At the dinner table, I had a dispute with the family. I would like to ask for a drink when I got married, of course I can't make trouble. My elder brother and I thought about calming the matter and not having to do anything about the wedding. Who knew that the woman's wife started yelling, saying that Shen He's daughter Shen Huaiyu was a perverted homosexual. My elder brother was stunned for a moment, and I was also stunned. I don't know how she knew, and I knew so much. I knew that another college student who came to our village at that time was not her ordinary classmate, but her girlfriend."
Grandpa San rubbed his hands, and it seemed a little cold. Gu Yanqiu poured him a cup of hot water and handed the cup to his hand to cover it.
"In the end, the master came forward and asked the woman to shut up. But most of the people in the village went there. Everyone was aware of this. I don't know how to end in the future. The eldest brother just cared about drinking. In the end, he said that he couldn't eat and wanted to leave first. I agreed and thought about going back and discussing countermeasures."
Grandpa San picked up the water cup and drank a sip of hot water. He slowly calmed down the trembling, and his eyes were fixed on the table: "Who knew that he would never come back that night."
