054 had a black storm in his eyes
He forgot to see the long-dusted file in the office.
It is indeed the father's name, which is the same as the address of the student.
"Back then, most of the archives were handwritten, unlike now, which are all digital archives, and it is easy to record and query. ”
"Thank you very much. Wang said.
"In fact, the resources that can be found on record are still limited. The teacher put away the file and said, "Actually, the biggest force is the alumni, I don't know if you have considered this." ”
Wang has bowed his head, "Thank you for reminding us, we are trying to get in touch with the alumni of the year." ”
Leaving the campus, He Forgetzhi looked very melancholy.
"You say, can you really contact my father's classmates?" He Forgetzhi was worried: "After all, it's been too many years." ”
"It shouldn't be difficult, but it will take time. Wang Jiyu held up the umbrella, "Let's go to the address on the account first." ”
The car slid into the rain, and he forgot to hold his cheeks and look at the flowing scenery on the street, looking preoccupied.
The car couldn't get in when it reached the entrance of the alley, the two stopped the car, Wang had an umbrella, and took He Forgetzhi inside.
There were few people on the streets, and the cold wind was blowing.
The cold in the north is strong, and the wind is like a knife in the snowflakes.
The cold in the south is lingering, and the bones feel cold when it wraps around people's bodies.
Wang Jiyu's hand was very strong, and it seemed to give her a little strength on He Wangzhi's shoulder.
After following the navigation on the phone for more than ten minutes, the voice prompted them to reach the end point.
He Wangzhi looked up at the two-story building and clenched his fists nervously.
The two-story building looks old, but it is not dilapidated, and judging by the half-open and ventilated windows and the flowers visiting on the windowsills, there are people in the house.
Seeing that He forgot to be nervous, Wang Jiyu joked: "If the property rights of this house belong to your father, you can be regarded as a little rich woman." ”
He Forgetzhi shook his head, "Impossible. If this house belonged to my father, he couldn't have walked so painfully. ”
Wang Jiyan looked at He Wangzhi, and He Wangzhi smiled bitterly, "Before my dad was sick, I didn't have any concept of money. You've been to my house too, the place is not big, and the consumption is not big. But since he got sick, I felt that money was really a good thing, and the patients in the same ward were taking imported medicines, and my father was sometimes reluctant to use cheap medicines. ”
Thinking of the past, He Forgetzhi still felt depressed, but she pretended to smile normally, "Actually, I don't know what kind of mystery my dad left for me." ”
Wang Jiyu retracted his hand vigorously, looked up at the window, and said, "Just go up and know." After speaking, Wang raised his hand and rang the doorbell.
The doorbell looks very old, and it can only serve as a reminder, not a conversation.
Wang has pressed it twice, but there is no response.
"Otherwise, we will take the hukou and go to the nearby neighborhood committee to ask, maybe the person is not at home. ”
Wang shook his head, pointed to the window with his chin and said, "Someone is at home." ”
He Wangzhi looked over along his realization, only to see an old woman open the window and say to them, "Wait a minute." ”
The old woman may have bad legs and feet, and she went downstairs very slowly, and ten minutes passed, and he forgot to see her real person.
The old woman looked to be seventy or eighty years old, one meter and five meters tall, on crutches, and walked with a slight limp. She wears a pair of black pants, a gray traditional gown, and her gray-white hair is meticulously tied into a bun.
"Who are you looking for?" the old woman looked at Wang Jiyu and He Forgetzhi quite vigilantly through the railing, her eyes were very bright and shrewd.
"Hello, my name is He Forgetzhi. I am He Zhengyi's daughter. ”
He forgot to say, and took out the household registration book from his bag.
He forgot to turn the household registration book to his father's page and showed it to the old woman through the railing. The old woman got closer, looked at it carefully, and asked He Forget to turn the page, and He Forget to do it.
The old woman finished reading the household registration book and did not speak immediately.
He forgot that he was afraid that the rain would wet the household registration book, so he quickly put it back in his schoolbag.
"Child, you look up. The old woman said in a deep voice.
I don't know why, but I still look up.
The old woman's gaze searched her face like an X-ray machine, and after a long time she withdrew her gaze with satisfaction, and opened the door to them with a look less defensive and vigilant than before.
Listening to the creaking sound of the iron door, He forgot to realize it afterwards and showed a smile.
"Who is this?" the old woman motioned for them to enter, and at the same time asked why she had forgotten the identity of Wang Ji.
He forgot that he was a little embarrassed, this kind of question is a bit difficult to answer.
"Well, he's my friend. "He forgot to say.
The old woman's eyes lingered on Wang Jiyu's body a few times, and then she slowly said "En" and said, "Not bad." ”
He forgot to be embarrassed, whether this is "good" or "wrong" actually has nothing to do with her, but the old woman probably regards Wang Jiyu as her boyfriend.
After entering the house, a stream of heating came to the surface, and He Forgetzhi sighed comfortably.
The old woman unpacked them with two new pairs of slippers and led them into the drawing-room.
He forgot to sit on the sofa and looked around quietly.
The decoration of the house is a bit European, which does not match the old woman in traditional clothes.
Because of the excellent aesthetics, the decoration with a sense of age does not look old, but has a kind of heaviness because of the precipitation of the years.
The classical piano is placed in the upper right corner of the living room, near the piano, and there is a huge shelf with vinyl records on it.
On the wall opposite the piano, there is a landscape oil painting, with a warm and soft tone, taking advantage of the effect of light, in the Rococo style that prevailed in France in the seventies.
"Just wait. The old woman brought the fragrant coffee.
The delicate matching bone china utensils, plates, cups and spoons are freehand paintings of flowers and birds, vivid and classical.
"Thank you, Granny Qiao. "He forgot to say.
"This is what Ah Qiao should do. ”
The old woman asked He Wangzhi to call her Ah Qiao, but He Wangzhi really couldn't call her, so she could only neutralize her and call her Qiao's mother-in-law.
Granny Qiao asked He to forget to wait for a while and then leave temporarily.
"I don't feel right. He Forgetzhi frowned, "How do I think she doesn't treat me as a junior." ”
Wang Jiyu picked up the coffee and took a sip comfortably, "I regard you as the master." ”
He Zhizhi fidgeted and retorted in a low voice: "I told you that it was impossible." If this house really belonged to my father, he would have sold it for treatment. You know when he first got his cancer out in the early stages. ”
"Wait and see. Wang said so.
At this time, Ah Qiao walked over with a box.
He forgot that she was walking with a cane and a very heavy box, so he hurriedly came over to help.
Ah Qiao looked at He Wangzhi with a smile, and was helped by her to sit down.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Ah Qiao saw He Forget and sat down and spoke.
He Forgetzhi's heart was worried, and the hands on his knees were clenched into fists.
"Here are the deeds, some fixed assets and keys to the safe. Ah Qiao said: "I have been looking forward to you for a long time, and this time I finally waited for you, and I can also go to a nursing home to spend my old age." ”
He forgot to take the box from Ah Qiao's hand, and felt that the box was heavy and a little hot.
"Qiao...... Clever mother-in-law. I, these things ......" He Forgetzhi stared at the patterns on the box, a little confused, she couldn't think that there would be such a big turn in her mediocre and even a little tragic life.
But then the suspicion arises, if there is money, why doesn't Dad use the money to treat the disease, why not tell her the truth about everything before he dies?
Granny Qiao looked at He Forgetzhi calmly, without interjecting or speaking.
He Forgetzhi finally sorted out the troubled thoughts in his heart, and said, "Granny Qiao, I won't tell you, I didn't know anything before I came. Actually, my dad has passed away. ”
Granny Qiao's expression was gloomy, "Actually, I probably guessed it." If Dashao was still alive, I guess you wouldn't find this place either. ”
"Da Shao?" he subconsciously asked.
Granny Qiao smiled, "I haven't introduced myself to you yet." I have lived alone for too long, and I am getting older, and sometimes I am really not thoughtful in talking and doing things. ”
"No, no, no. He forgot to say quickly.
"I have been working in the He family since I was fifteen years old, and my wife and lord died young. Da Shao has never returned, and I have been guarding this home alone for almost 30 years. Granny Qiao sighed, "Back then, Da Shao never returned, leaving not a word, and then I received a letter from Yifeng from Rongcheng, Da Shao said that he had a child, and his name was Forget Zhi." I wrote back to him and asked him to come back quickly, but the letter was lost, and then I searched for the address on the letter, only to find that Da Shao was in prison. ”
"What?" said He Forgetzhi in shock.
Granny Qiao shook her head, "At that time, I spent some money, found a relationship, met Da Shao, he gave me an address, I found you, took you for a while, you are very well-behaved, don't cry or make trouble." Another year has passed, when you were almost two years old, you were released from prison, let me go back to Shanghai and clean up the house first, you will be back soon, I don't doubt him, come back early, but I can't contact you anymore!"
Granny Qiao said, with tears in her eyes.
He forgot that he seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he couldn't have imagined that his taciturn and stubborn father turned out to be a young master, and he was once in prison, but he had a good life, but he went to be a middle school teacher in M Town, and finally died because he had no money for treatment.
"You said my dad was in prison, do you know why he got there?" asked He Wangzhi.
Granny Qiao shook her head, "I don't know about this. ”
Why forget it, it's not that Granny Qiao doesn't know, but she doesn't want to say it.
Wang Jiyu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "Granny Qiao, you have always called the father who forgot 'Da Shao', so are there any other people in the He family?"
He Wangzhi looked at Granny Qiao and felt that Wang had asked the point.
Granny Qiao shook her head, "There is no one else in the He family." At that time, his wife was not in good health, and she had only given birth to one son over the years. In order to please a good lottery, he called his son 'Da Shao', which means that he hoped that there would be other children in the future, but in the end, he only got one child. ”
Wang Jiyu nodded, if the He family had other children, Granny Qiao would not have been here for so many years, and in the end, she could be handed over to He Forgetzhi smoothly.
You must know that the current housing prices are simply an inch of land, and how many brothers and sisters are in trouble because of the inherited property.
He Wangzhi flipped out the household registration book, turned to the page that was torn off, and said, "Granny Qiao, do you know how this page is empty?"
Granny Qiao took out her reading glasses from her pocket, looked at them carefully, and shook her head, "I don't know about this." It is very likely that after Da Shao got married, the position of his wife. ”
He Forgetzhi took back the household registration book, feeling that this question might need to be asked to Jiang Mingyue.
Simply explained, Mother-in-law Qiao seemed to have completed the biggest task in her life, and the whole person was a lot more relaxed, and she had to cook for He Wangzhi and Wang Jiyu herself.
Of course she didn't let it, but in the face of such a big impact, she was not in the mood to cook, and in the end, Wang Jiyan called the familiar restaurant and ordered the food to be delivered.
Granny Qiao is old, but her life has always been very regular, and she took a walk in the garden after eating before going upstairs to rest.
He Wangzhi sat on the sofa, holding the box, and his heart was very heavy.
What did Dad think, what did he go through, and what secrets did he have?
Wang Jiyan walked in, and he still had a little bit of rain and mist on his body.
"I just made a phone call, and I'm already investigating why your father was in prison back then. ”
He Forgetzhi sighed and said "grace" weakly.
Wang Jiyan sat down in front of her and said, "How is it, what does it feel like to be rich?"
He Forgetzhi smiled bitterly, "How can you feel? I just think that this money came at an inopportune time, if I had known the news earlier, maybe I could use this money to make my father live a little longer and have a better quality." And I don't have to follow Jiang Mingyue myself. ”
After He Forgetzhi finished speaking, he thought that if he didn't have to follow Jiang Mingyue, he would not be disabled, and he wouldn't have to sell 150,000 yuan a month to Wang Jiyu for three years.
Fortunately, according to the contract, as long as Wang has appeared when he needs it, there is only companionship, and there are no requirements such as emotional and maintenance.
"How much money do you think I should give Granny Qiao?" He Forgetzhi rubbed his temples, "She has been guarding this home for so many years, and she has no home of her own." ”
"Didn't she say she wanted to live in a nursing home? Or you could help her find a private nursing home with good benefits so that she could enjoy her old age. Wang said.
"That's a good idea. He Wangzhi nodded, then looked down at the iron box, and sighed again.
"If you're really curious, just open it and take a look, what's going on?"
He Wangzhi leaned his head on the back of the sofa, "You don't understand, I've been hit hard enough now, I'm afraid of opening the box and finding some thunder." ”
Wang Jiyu sneered, "I think your nerves are still quite thick." I've been hit, but I'm not living well. ”
He forgot to smile bitterly.
"Actually, I was thinking that my dad might not want me to know the whole thing by hiding these things. He Forgetzhi is still struggling with his father's imprisonment, "If I, as a parent, I also want my children to always remember my good side, not my bad side." ”
He Forgetzhi retreated a little, "Otherwise, let's stop here, I'll settle Granny Qiao well, as for the matter of being imprisoned, I don't want to investigate it anymore." ”
Wang didn't know what he was thinking, and he exuded a temperament that was difficult to put into words.
He Forgetzhi noticed the change in his mood, but he didn't know why.
"What's wrong with you?"
Wang raised his head, the corners of his mouth curled, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"If you are a parent, will you really let your children only see your good side?" Wang said, with a strong sense of aggression.
He forgot to know him and knew that it was best not to pick up the tiger's whiskers in this situation.
If he is allowed to have a seizure here and let Granny Qiao see it, the matter will be a big deal, and the old man will be frightened again.
"Maybe. "He forgot to say.
"Will you love him, take good care of him, and educate him well?" asked Wang Jiyu in a series of questions.
He forgot that her head was big, she was only eighteen years old this year, and she didn't think of such a distant problem, okay?
"I don't know. All she could say was this: "Theoretically and emotionally I tend to do this, but in practice, maybe a child will be very naughty, and maybe a pigu hit twice." ”
Wang Jiyu shook his head, stood up, and looked at He Zhizhi condescendingly.
"No, you won't. ”
He forgot that his right eyelid jumped.
Wang Jiyu leaned down slightly, looking at what he had forgotten.
"You grew up in a single-parent family, surrounded only by your silent and secret father. When he was about to become an adult, his father died and was taken to Jiang Mingyue's side. ”
Wang Jiyu snorted coldly, how could he forget that it was a mockery of Jiang Mingyue's mother.
"As for what Jiang Mingyue did, you and I both know. ”
"What do you want to express?" He Wangzhi's hand clasped the box, and he raised his head to look at Wang Jiyu, who was exuding anger.
"You're not going to be a good mother, a good wife, because you haven't learned how to do it. ”
He Forgetzhi took a deep breath and felt that Wang Jizhi's accusations were simply unfounded.
The environment of the family does affect a person's personality and way of doing things.
But if anything, her worse experience came from high school life.
Years of hot and cold violence have made her afraid to deal with people.
Maybe you can talk and laugh with people, or you can communicate with people naturally.
But in my heart, I am afraid of establishing a deep connection with people, because I am afraid of being toyed with and betrayed.
But that doesn't mean she can't love someone well!
"Say whatever you want. He was also tired and felt that there was no need to argue with Wang Jizhi.
It's hard for adults to convince each other.
Wang Jiyan couldn't stop, "So don't think too much, think that if you have a house, you will have a home." ”
The balloon of tolerance that he forgot was finally punctured.
She sensed the desperation hidden in Wang's words.
"Well, I admit that my life is a tragedy. And what about you? Are you happy with your life?"
After He Forgetzhi finished speaking, he looked at Wang Jiyu defiantly.
Wang had already looked at He Forgetzhi steadily, with a black storm in his eyes.
