Prologue
At 11:27 p.m. on October 7, 1971, a little boy was born into this world.
The baby was born in a small county hospital in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, by Wang Jing, a local worker at a hydropower station. At 10:40, a doctor in the delivery room took off his mask with blood on his hands and asked with a dejected face: "Who is.". Who is Wang Jing's family?" The middle-aged man sitting on the bench seemed to have waited for a long time, he hurriedly got up and raised his hand: "I am, I am her brother, no... Doctor, how's it going?"
The doctor paused for a moment, "Heavy bleeding, I can only save one." ”
The middle-aged man was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "Fuck, CAO!"
"It's not... Sir, could you please contact her husband? The doctor interjected.
"What? Let me contact that brute? Fuck he hasn't been home for almost a year, and you let me find him?" manly kicked over the stool under his feet, "Bao-sama, Bao-sama! The man's face turned red, and his facial features twisted together.
"But—" The doctor grinded.
"But what is it?!, I said hurry up and protect your lord!"
"Okay, okay, then you sign it!" the female doctor couldn't help it.
To the surprise of all the doctors, the child was also saved, 6 and a half pounds, with good facial features, but the woman was still in a coma. It wasn't until 1:33 p.m. that the woman woke up in the intensive care unit.
The child's uncle also saw the child at 5 a.m. on the third day, and his big eyes were bright and bright, white and tender, and they were lovely. "Like that brute, that's right. Uncle muttered angrily and happily.
The whereabouts of the child's father have been unknown, and the family has been searching for him since one night in '68. Mother Wang Jing was married in 67, and within a few years, her husband disappeared, and during her pregnancy, she was taken care of by the woman's brother, who was the child's uncle. But where did this father go, there are several versions in this village. Some said they committed suicide, some said they were murdered, some said they cheated, some even said they were killed by drug trafficking, and some said they were kidnapped by aliens. Anyway, this year, there were mixed rumors about the child's father.
His father's name is Du Batong, a well-known local businessman, as for what kind of business he does, even Wang Jing himself doesn't know too well, but he is quite rich anyway. Du Batong is a big deal, every time he withdraws money, he takes tens of thousands of dollars, you must know that thousands of dollars are a huge amount of money at that time. In fact, the little couple was still very affectionate before, the man had already bought two houses in Shanghai, and three or four months before the woman became pregnant, the man swore that he wanted to take the mother and son to Shanghai to live the life of a real rich man. But as soon as the woman became pregnant, less than a week, Du Batong suddenly disappeared, leaving no information or anything. After waiting for two months, there was still no news from Du Batong, and the woman was very disappointed and washed her face with tears all day long. Everyone in the family said that this man was really a scumbag, and it was time to run away when he was pregnant, and the previous ones were sweet words.
Especially the child, his uncle hated Du Batong to the core, and wanted to chop the man several times. But the woman is still in love with the man like this, saying that her husband must have difficulties in his business and can't get away with a series of absurd words to deceive herself, and then after another 3 months, there is still no news, and Du Batong is simply evaporated from the world. Several relatives of the family had almost concluded that the other had run away with the other woman. But the woman still waited with all her heart, and she always thought that her husband who had abandoned her would definitely appear. For the stubbornness of women, my brother is also very angry.
"Wake up, wake up!" shouted the child's uncle, and the doctor hurried to the prison to beckon the man to leave.
Within 20 minutes, the woman was pushed out, saying that she was going to be transferred to a general ward. His uncle was so excited that because Wang Jing was too weak, the man was turned away from the hospital room and not allowed to enter the ward for 24 hours.
At noon on October 11, the child's uncle finally entered the ward and met with the woman. The two looked at each other and clenched their hands tightly and burst into tears, "Survived, survived... The child was also saved..."The man cried a lot, and when he heard this, Wang Jing cried very much. After a long time, the woman finally spoke.
"What about him," the woman whispered.
"What?... Huh?"
The woman turned her face sideways, "Batong... Why don't you see others..."
"Fuck, don't be that brute in front of me, I can't get angry when I think of him!CAO!" After scolding, the man kicked on the hospital bed, shaking and shaking, and the woman was so frightened that she almost screamed, her face full of disappointment. Seeing this, his uncle hurriedly apologized and said, "Uh... I didn't mean to, don't mention that kid in the future.... I.. Let the doctor bring the child over, you see, you are too weak now, I will go home and make porridge for you. You wait. The man turned and walked out of the room.
The child's name is Dewey, his mother's name, without Du Batong, the mother and son depend on each other for a difficult time year after year.
One night in June 1979, Dewey came home late from playing with a few of his playmates in the back mountain, getting covered in mud, and sure enough, Dewey was criticized again. For dinner, the mother and son ate not fragrantly, but Wang Jing still sandwiched vegetables for the child from time to time, hoping that he would eat more and grow up sooner. Suddenly, Dewey slapped the dishes and chopsticks and suddenly said, "Mom, I saw our dad." The little guy's eyes suddenly became serious, and he was caught off guard. "What? Ah Wei, are you stupid, your father is very busy with business and won't come back for a while, how many times have I told you. The woman didn't have any waves in her heart when she heard this, maybe she would have died a long time ago, but also, it's been seven or eight years, to be honest, everyone doesn't know if Du Batong is still alive. The only thing that is a bit interesting is the wedding photo 12 years ago, and the woman often wipes the photo frame, as if she has just gotten married.
"Mom, you're lying! I saw him by the pond in the back mountain today! You're lying!" Dewey insisted.
The woman straightened the stool, her chin in her hands, her head drooping, ready to listen to Dewey's serious nonsense, "Oh? Tell me what's going on. Obviously, Wang Jing didn't believe it.
"In the afternoon, Chubby was bullied by the group of ruffians in the back mountain again, and Ah Ran and I went to help..." "No, no, you listen to me, the ruffian brought a lot of people today, they seem to be junior high schools in the county, and they still have wine bottles and bricks in their hands, saying that we must pay protection money, otherwise we will be disabled..." No, Chubby was cut by them first, and the wine bottle was bloody, and one of the tall ones was holding a brick and wanted to hit me, and a man suddenly grabbed his hand, and he seemed to have a gun tied to his belt! "Dewey preached in a serious way.
Eight-year-old Dewey was much more mature than his peers, and he couldn't have imagined that an eight-year-old boy could tell such a terrifying thing in a hurry!
"Then he took one look at me.... After that, it's gone. Dewey scratched his head, "Oh, by the way, he asked me to give this to you, he must be my dad!" The little boy pulled a ring out of his pocket with his dirty hand.
Wang Jing was a little stunned, her eyes were dead, her head seemed to be knocked, and she took the ring. After careful scrutiny, it was repeatedly confirmed that it was not a wedding ring, and it was large and thick and had no texture at all. "Before the man left... What else are you talking about?" Wang Jing was simply confused by the second monk.
"Also, he told you to hide. Dewey wiped his nose. "And then ..... It's gone..."
Wang Jing didn't sleep at all that night, and she didn't dare to sleep, so she lay on the bed and stared at the wedding photos on the table by the moonlight. All this is a big question mark, not only for Wang Jing, but also for little Dewey.
Early the next morning, Wang Jing secretly went up to the back mountain, and turned the back mountain upside down! The lake, the stream, the swamp, the pond, and the woods did not find this man.
Wang Jing, who looked lost, returned home tiredly, knowing that even if it was really Du Batong, he would not stay in the back mountain anymore.
As soon as she entered the main gate, she found little Dewey sitting there facing the wedding photo.
"You kid, why are you still... What time is it now!!" Wang Jing took the soaked towel in his hand and threw it at Little Dewey.
It is also strange to say, Dewey not only did not dodge, but also turned his head unhurriedly, and said word by word: "Mom, why are you going?"
"I, I... I.." Wang Jing couldn't answer. "I went to the back mountain to chop wood. ”
"You're lying! I'm going to the back mountain to find my father, right?!" Little Dewey looked at the wedding photo, "It's him, it's him, I've been looking at it all morning! That man's eyes really look like him!" Little Dewey desperately pointed to Dubarton in the photo.
After listening, Wang Jing rolled her eyes and fainted. I woke up a night later. But after that, Wang Jing ran to the back mountain early in the morning, but every time he saw some old men chopping wood and some wild animals, not to mention Du Batong, he didn't even catch his hair! Since then, there has been no news that Du Batong is still alive.
