There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Zhou Xiaozheng raised his head, blinked his sore eyes, and said hoarsely: Auntie, you need to rest first. If I don't leave, I will stay here with you. Let's talk when you feel better.

Mrs. Cheng tried to take a few deep breaths, feeling better, and then said: My aunt has been waiting, waiting for someone to bring you over with a token, but I have been waiting and waiting, but I have never seen you. I think it should be that the world is too chaotic, you are too young, it may not be easy for others to take you out, so you should be more patient.

But when I got married, the token didn't show up, and neither did you; when I gave birth, you still didn't show up. I don't know where I went wrong, am I too stupid, forgot, misunderstood, while recalling every word my sister said to me, remembering that my sister said that you are in a secret place, a safe place, I I think as long as the child is fine, I will wait. It's like this to understand/release, but I still haven't waited for the token, and I haven't waited for you.

I quit my job and looked for everyone who had a relationship with my sister, everyone who was related to my adoptive father and adoptive mother, and even the most unlikely Gu's concubine. . But it's about your safety, I don't know if it will affect you, so I can only secretly search among these people for boys of the same age as their family and their relatives.

Disappointed again and again, every year I dare not see my sister and brother-in-law, how can I have the face to meet them? My sister told me to raise the child well. My stepmother saved my life, my sister saved my life. She died for me, I can't even find their only flesh and blood, what face do I have to see them? I'm even afraid of death, I'm afraid that if I really die, how can I meet my adoptive mother and foster father, how can I meet my sister and brother-in-law, what face do I have to meet them?

But when that day came, I still couldn't help but go to their graves. I was afraid that if I didn't go, why would my sister and brother-in-law entrust me with dreams? I'm afraid that if I don't go, my sister and brother-in-law will be sad. Even if I haven't found the child yet, I want them to listen and bless me to find the child.

Seeing that her complexion was getting worse, Zhou Xiaozheng hurriedly stopped her and said, Auntie, don't get excited, everything is over, look at me, I'm fine, I'm married and have a daughter, you found me too, it's all over , Don’t think about those who are unhappy. We will all be happy in the future.”

But I hate myself. If it was my sister, she would recognize you. She is so smart. But I am so stupid. You just passed by me to say hello to me so many times, and I didn't recognize you. You see Your eyes follow brother-in-law's, your eyebrows follow brother-in-law's, and your dimples follow sister-in-law's, but I just can't recognize it.

Zhou Xiaozheng forced a smile, Auntie, do you know what I'm laughing at? I remembered my Jiaojiao, she also said the same thing to you. She said, Dad, I look like you, look at my eyes You, my eyebrows follow you, I feel like I can follow you anywhere.

Auntie, you will definitely like Jiaojiao when you see her, your tone of voice is quite similar. Look at me, I'm fine now, you have to take good care of yourself, take me and the children to visit my parents every year, didn't my mother tell you to take good care of me?

Then you have to get healthy first, and often cook some vegetables to feed me, and you also need to get healthy, and come to see me often. Our mother and I have made up for the past forty years. You take care of your health and take me to see my grandparents, take me to Jiangnan, and take me to the place where my parents live.

So you, why don't you take good care of your body? We all want to do happy things in the future, and we will tell my parents when it is clear, okay?

Mrs. Cheng listened to him, and gradually she smiled and nodded from time to time.

Zhou Xiaozheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said a few words to tease her, which made her very happy.

Cheng Lao was relieved to see that his wife was fine. This will notice the old lady Zhou who has been in a daze. He secretly regrets that this old lady is a good person and has always raised his nephew. But he still has to ask what should be asked.

He cleared his throat, looked at Mrs. Zhou looking at him, and quickly asked: Sister, I want to know where the old patriarch is? Who has the token?

The old lady Zhou pointed to the amulet that Zhou Xiaozheng took out, and said: The token is the amulet, which has been hanging around Xiaozheng's neck. I told him not to lose it. I am just worried about using it in the future.

The old patriarch passed away unexpectedly very early. At that time, I had a miscarriage and confinement, and Gu Mingzhu, the old patriarch and my husband were discussing, but I didn't hear what was specifically said. But I know she left this talisman. When the child came, I held her in my arms, and she even bowed to me. The old patriarch once said that the child is old, why his mother hasn't come to pick it up yet, will there be any accidents, and asked my man to ask Liu Xizhi to see. That's when I knew the name Liu Xizhi.

Mrs. Cheng immediately asked anxiously: How many years was that? Have you found your man? I have kept someone in my brother-in-law's and sister's small courtyard all the time because I was afraid that people would not find me, so I found my sister. And my sister at that time I took the children there and took two wooden boxes. The big one was for your child support. I put gold bars and silver dollars in it myself. The other small box was taken out by my sister. What about the small box? My sister said it was for you. children's.

The old lady Zhou frowned and recalled, At that time, Gu Mingzhu came in with a suitcase, and she did leave empty-handed when she left. But I have never seen two boxes. Can you tell me what it looks like?

The small one is only the size of a palm, black and red. The box is very ordinary, with no patterns engraved on it, and there are two jade pendants inside. Among them, the suet jade is the heirloom of the main house of the Gu family, and my sister has been hanging around her neck. There is also a One is the jade pendant of the Zhou family. It is a small red bloodstone seal. These two are the marriage contract tokens exchanged between the Zhou family and the Gu family, and my sister said that they will be reserved for the children to marry and have children in the future.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhou closed her eyes in pain, unable to speak for a long time.

Everyone in the living room looked at each other and saw the problem, and they all quietly waited for her to speak.

After a long time, the old lady Zhou said in a hoarse voice: The Zhou family's seal is on the old man's neck. He said it was passed down to him by his father. The round suet jade rope is broken, and the old man has been keeping it. It is estimated that I'm also looking for the box.

Cheng Lao sighed: Sister, we must recognize the child. We have physical witnesses. There is even a photo of Gu Mingzhu in the small box. You should understand how good Gu Mingzhu is. Just in case, she We will not leave a way out for the child. But we just couldn't find the child, and we have been waiting for the child to come with a token.

The old patriarch died, and the only one who knew the truth was Zhou Jiaren. We are sure that Gu Mingzhu must have talked about how to find Liu Xizhi at that time, so she left a token. Every time she goes on a mission, she will tell my wife in advance that if she is gone, let her wait for someone to bring a token and raise the child well in the future.

I know it's hard for you, but we have to meet Zhou Jiaren. If he does not admit that we must report to the authorities. We waited for more than 40 years and searched all over the country, but he deliberately concealed the facts. If he treats Zhou Jinyu's lineage well, I'll forget it, but if Zhou Xiaozheng doesn't say anything, how much suffering has Zhou Jiao suffered? Gu Mingzhu's box of gold bars was prepared by my wife himself, because he was afraid that the child would be wronged, so he agreed in advance as a thank you gift. Why does he want to keep the child when he has these things?

Do you know how I found the baby? God has eyes! It's just that I suspect that Zhou Jiao may have inherited her grandfather's photographic memory, so I searched all of your comrades in arms with hope. When my wife got the clue about the child, he couldn't bear the excitement and went straight to the hospital that night. When we got the evidence, we immediately boarded the military plane and rushed over. You also saw how my wife's health is. No matter how guilty I am to you, we still have to find Zhou Jiaren settled the accounts.

Mrs. Cheng wanted to get up immediately, and told Cheng Sijin, Boss, you take the two suitcases of your mother. There are photos saved by your aunt in them. Let's go now. I'm going to ask my brother-in-law's things how to get them. Got his? Wait for the photo to be thrown on his face to see if he still has a face?

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at the old lady Zhou, and said: Mother, if you are in trouble, you can stay here. I will go over and ask in person, and the matter will always be resolved.

Mrs. Zhou pulled herself together, stood up, and said, Let's go and see what he has to say.

Zhang Guoqing prepared dinner and was about to greet everyone for dinner. I didn't want to hear everything, so I suddenly realized why Mr. Zhou's attitude was so weird.

Zhou Xiaozheng saw him as soon as he left the living room, Xiao Wu, put things aside, let's drive to Zhoujia Village.
