Chapter 675: Loving Father
In this small building dedicated to receiving foreign dignitaries, the lights in the living room remained on until midnight, and the master and servant were full of tears as they repeated the meeting in the few minutes in the morning, saying and saying every word and expression. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"It's Miss, Uncle, it's really Miss!" Ah Xing had already changed three handkerchiefs in his hand, and the tears of joy and excitement almost never stopped. The more he talked, and the more he remembered those good days in the past, the more certain he became, "Miss is really back!" ”
What a strange and incredible thing it is for a young lady who has been dead for twenty-two years to suddenly appear in her hometown. Before seeing the girl, Ah Xing couldn't believe it was real, even if he saw the photo with his own eyes.
At first glance, all of Ah Xing's worries and speculations were gone.
That's Miss. There was no need for any evidence, it was the little girl he was most familiar with, and her smile was deeply rooted in his heart, even after twenty-two years, it was still as fresh as ever.
She doesn't have to say anything, just a fresh and mischievous smile will prove everything!
"Uncle, let's go back quickly! I'll go back to Peizhou tomorrow! It's been 22 years since we came out, and it's long overdue to go back. The girl and the young lady are both at home, and the place where we talk is across the hill from our peach grove, and the young lady used to like to fish for frogs by the river......"
Ah Xing spoke incoherently, his old tears were rampant, and his hands were so shaky that he couldn't wipe away his tears, "We should have gone back a long time ago......"
He is the girl's dowry steward, a native of Peizhou, but since the young lady died unexpectedly, he has followed his aunt away from the sad place for twenty-two years, and he has not dared to go back to see it.
If they had stayed in their hometown, or had they gone back a few times over the years, would they have been able to see the young lady earlier? Will my uncle be able to suffer less?
Zhou Jingyuan was holding a thick folder in his hand, and there was a photo pinned to the top, which was a frontal photo of a girl holding two popsicles with pigtails up, which was the eyebrows and eyes of his little daughter.
But he didn't dare to expect that it would really be his An'an.
This girl is still the same as An An left when she was seventeen years old, and An An has been gone for twenty-two years.
He trembled with excitement while calming himself down and thinking that this child was probably a relative of his wife's mother's family.
With Young Master James remaining in Peizhou, he quickly investigated all his doubts, and unexpectedly, this girl had nothing to do with his wife's family.
The wife's mother's family is already thin, and after years of war, except for a few distant relatives who have come out of Wufu, there is no one at all.
And neither of the child's parents has anything to do with their family, and this child has never left the native of Peizhou.
There is no doubt about her birth, she is the daughter of the Zhou family in Yangshugou Village, Qingshan County, from her mother's pregnancy to childbirth, to when she grows up little by little, there is nothing to doubt.
But she just looks exactly like his An An!
Zhou Jingyuan is the head of the overseas Chinese visiting group, and his every move is in the eyes of others, so he can only use Young Master James's people to send the old servants of the family to secretly contact this child first.
As long as she is really like An An as in the photo, he will do everything he can to take her away.
He misses his daughter so much, since she left, his life has only been left to help her fulfill her last wish, if he can have a child who looks exactly like An An by his side, he can get a little comfort from his regrets over the years.
But he didn't expect that this child not only looked like An An, but also spoke like An An in terms of speech, preferences, habits, and cunning and smart way of doing things!
Ah Xing watched An An grow up since he was a child, and he would never be mistaken!
The pen in Zhou Jingyuan's hand was heavily circled on Zhou Xiaoan's date of birth, on September 16, 1941, the twenty-fifth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the pen in his hand trembled and drew two heavy lines under this date, which was the day of An An's accident.
On this day, An An was gone, and Zhou Xiaoan was born.
Twenty-two years later, what he saw was that this girl was exactly the same as An An looked like when she was seventeen!
This can't be a coincidence! Zhou Jingyuan has traveled all over the world all his life and has never believed in gods and Buddhas, but at this moment, he believes that this is a miracle!
It was a miracle that he did with all his might to do good deeds for 22 years in order to fulfill his daughter's wish, and he exchanged it with sincerity!
"Uncle, I'll order you to go down immediately, and we'll go home early tomorrow morning to find Miss!" Peizhou is their hometown, the girl and the young lady have stayed in Peizhou, they have not been back for more than 20 years, but when it comes to Peizhou, they will still say "go home".
He saw the young lady and couldn't wait a minute! There are still a few days left in the activities arranged here, and Ah Xing, who has always been cautious and patient, can no longer sit still, and for the first time in his life, he is in charge of the master.
"The Lin family and the Su family in Peizhou are in contact with us, and we can go before the delegation in a private capacity."
Zhou Jingyuan's big bony hand knocked on the folder a few times, and raised his hand to press down Ah Xing, who had already stood up, and his eyes were full of wise thoughts, "If it is really An An, we can't take over the stubble of the Lin family and the Su family now." ”
The identities of the Lin family and the Su family in Peizhou are embarrassing in China, and the purpose of frequent contact with them is not simple, if he is just entrusted by someone to come back to look for someone, and then leave after a few more glances at his hometown, then it doesn't hurt to get in touch, even if there is something, with his identity and influence, he can ensure that he can get out of the way.
But now that they have found An An, they must be as cautious as possible, "We will stay in the provincial capital as originally planned and return with the delegation in a few days." ”
This is the safest way, they have been suffering from the loss of their loved ones for more than 20 years, and they cannot afford to make any mistakes in the last few days.
But knowing that this was right, Zhou Jingyuan still couldn't help but instruct Ah Xing, "Ask Mr. Zhao's wife to make a jade leaf baba and send it to An An, wrapped with peanuts and sesame candy." ”
Ah Xing's eyes were red again, but his face was full of joy, and he hurriedly went to arrange, "Hey! Ay! And send it while it's hot! Miss likes to eat hot, if only she could pour some osmanthus honey on it! I heard that now it's two taels of sugar a month, and Miss loves sweets so much, I don't know what to be wronged about! We didn't bring sweets here, we have to leave Dashan in the provincial capital to buy some, and I'll go to the people from the Overseas Chinese Office to exchange some overseas Chinese coupons......"
Ah Xing began to take out his handkerchief and wipe his tears again. Mademoiselle must have suffered all these years! What a slim weight you have become!
He already regarded Zhou Xiaoan completely as the young lady of their family more than 20 years ago.
Zhou Jingyuan heard Ah Xing babbling out, and slowly calmed down with a fatherly feeling, "Forget it, Ah Xing, don't go." ”
"An An's affairs, except for you and me, Aaron and Dashan, can't let anyone know. You go and arrange it now, and the driver who drove today and the person who picked you up in Peizhou will be sent away immediately, don't delay for a moment. ”
Zhou Jingyuan's fingers tapped lightly on the table, "And the people we used in Peizhou this time, don't keep any of them, and send them to the UK as soon as possible." These people must be optimistic, and they must not leak the slightest rumor about our coming to An An. ”
