"Ah, auntie, what did you just say?" Jinxiu asked without hearing clearly.

Yuan Xiangjun smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, Jinxiu, I'll go first, you come over with Nianhua in the evening, and we will have a meal together as a family." ”

Jinxiu nodded: "Okay." ”

After Gu Nianhua and his parents sent their relatives back to the army guest house, they prepared to return to the splendid home. Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Yuan Xiangqun.

"Nianhua, you wait a while. ”

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

Yuan Xiangjun smiled: "I have something I want to ask you, come to the house and talk about it." ”

Gu Nianhua nodded, raised his feet and entered the house.

Jiang He was also in the house, and the uncle and nephew smiled and talked for a while, caring about each other's physical work and so on.

Yuan Xiangjun waited for the two of them to finish speaking, and then he spoke: "Nianhua, that brother-in-law of Jinxiu, are you familiar with it?"

"Guo Song?" Gu Nianhua didn't know why Yuan Xiangjun could ask about this, "I'm quite familiar, aunt, why did you suddenly ask about him?" Is there something wrong?"

Yuan Xiangjun smiled: "Can you tell me about Guo Song?" I see that he doesn't look like his parents, and his attitude towards his parents is not as good as his attitude towards the Jinxiu family, so I'm quite curious." ”

Gu Nianhua couldn't understand how his aunt became interested in Guo Song, but they were all family, and there seemed to be nothing that could not be said about Guo Song, so he told Guo Song's life experience.

After hearing this, Yuan Xiangjun's expression on his face became a little excited. The surname is Guo, twenty-six years old, adoptive parents, and this information seems to be getting clearer and clearer.

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

"Xiangjun, what's wrong?" Jiang He was also curious about how his wife could ask about his nephew and daughter-in-law's brother-in-law.

"Lao Jiang, do you remember Peilan?" Yuan Xiangjun mentioned a name that Gu Nianhua had never heard of.

Jiang He frowned: "Why did you suddenly mention her? ”

Yuan Xiangjun's expression became a little excited: "Lao Jiang, don't you think that Guo Song's appearance is very similar to Peilan?"

Jiang He heard Yuan Xiangjun say this, and recalled it carefully, but unfortunately everyone has been dead for more than 20 years, and his face has already been a little blurred.

"Lao Jiang, I suspect that Guo Song is Peilan's child. ”

Jiang He's eyes suddenly opened: "What? Are you sure?"

Yuan Xiangjun shook his head: "Such a big matter, how dare I determine it so casually." But the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was possible. Pei Lan's child should be twenty-six years old this year, and Guo Song looks too similar to Pei Lan, and he happened to be not born to his parents, how can there be so many coincidences in this world?"

Jiang He pursed his lips, put his fingertips together to support his chin, thought for a long time, and said: "It does seem a little possible, but this matter is too important to be judged by guessing alone." Otherwise, aren't you going to invite the splendid family to dinner tonight? Call Guo Song and his wife too, and I'll take a good look at it. ”

Yuan Xiangjun nodded.

Gu Nianhua made a decision when he saw that the two of them were in a few sentences, and asked in confusion: "Uncle, aunt, can you explain to me, what is going on? Who is Peilan, and what does she have to do with Guo Song?"

Yuan Xiangjun then remembered that he had forgotten about Gu Nianhua, smiled, sighed again, and said with a somewhat sad expression: "Pei Lan's surname is Guan, she is a best friend of mine, and her relationship is like a sister. Her father is now in the central government, and if she is still there, he will now be the husband of the provincial governor. It's a pity ......"

Guan Peilan married the current governor of H Province, Du Shijie, but Du Shijie was not the governor at that time, but he was also a powerful petty official at that time. The two have the same family background, and they are childhood sweethearts, and they grew up together, and after marriage, the husband and wife were affectionate and harmonious, and they became a model of love in X City at that time.

It's a pity that no one can say for sure about people's lives. The relationship between the two is too good, but they have never been able to have a child. The time when they and Yuan Xiangjun got married was not far behind, but Yuan Xiangjun's children were five or six years old, but Guan Peilan's stomach didn't move at all. The two of them suffered a lot in order to have a child, especially Guan Peilan, who basically drank medicinal soup as tea.

The hard work paid off, and after six or seven years of tossing, I finally got pregnant. But Guan Peilan's body is not too strong when she is small, and after she is pregnant with a child, she is so weak because she sees that the red tire is unstable and tossed ruthlessly. In order to give birth to that child, Guan Peilan really risked her life. Fortunately, there was no danger to give birth to the child.

In those years, although it was less than three years of natural disasters, the general environment was such that no one's life was easy. Even if the Du Guan family still has some skills, but in the general environment, the conditions are not much better, so Guan Peilan's body that just took the risk of giving birth to a child can be regarded as a complete collapse. But I managed to get through it.

Later, Du Shijie and Jiang He were assigned to serve in the county near the border of H Province, and the two women, Guan Peilan and Yuan Xiangqun, naturally followed with their children. Both families have children, and the house is too dilapidated and cramped, and a family of three can't live in it. As soon as the two families discussed, they rented a house outside.

At that time, the conditions were really not very good, and the conditions of the house rented outside were not very good, and in the three years of the natural disaster, the surrounding households were quite mixed, and the mobility was also quite large. But the two families live together, and they take care of each other on weekdays.

At that time, on the opposite side of their house, lived a couple who were said to have fled from S Province, with a daughter who was born with a disability. The couple knew that they were working in the government, so they usually scolded them. Although they don't like to deal with the couple very much, they are also familiar with each other.

But no one expected that the couple would steal Guan Peilan's child and throw away their own daughter, who was born with a disability.

That child was born after Guan Peilan begged for six or seven years and worked hard to give birth, so she lost it, how could she withstand that blow, and she collapsed immediately.

The Guan and Du families desperately searched for it, but unfortunately, at that time, there were many people fleeing the famine across the country, where could they go to find it?

Guan Peilan was like crazy looking for the whereabouts of the child, her health was not as good as day by day, and she gave up after half a year.

A good family broke up. It took Du Shijie several years to come out, and everyone persuaded him to find another one many times, but Du Shijie said that he would not remarry, saying that it was good for him to be alone, and he was at ease, without a wife and no children.
