Chapter 194: The Past Is Like Smoke
Two women over half a hundred years old always have a lot of emotion and sighs when they talk about the past.
And what Fang Fang told Lin Yaran next, Lin Yaran suddenly changed her attitude towards her, it turned out that many things are really not what the eyes see is the truth.
After graduating that year, Fang Fang didn't tell anyone, so she embarked on a journey to find love alone.
No one knows that Fang Fang's special family background, Jing.
The Fang family is a family that no one in other provinces and cities dares to mess with, not because of the illustrious family background, but because Fang Jiliang, that is, Fang Fang's father is the local hegemonic emperor.
The Fang family, who made a fortune by some shady means, has begun to slowly and gradually whitewash itself in Fang Jiliang's generation.
As the eldest lady of the Fang family, Fang Fang has been pampered since she was a child, and has developed the habit that what she wants is to get it by any means.
But Fang Fang is still very kind by nature, since she fell in love with the door at first sight, she let people secretly inquire about the whereabouts of the door.
When she learned that Menzhong was a soldier in Kuncheng, she resolutely embarked on a journey to find Menzhong as soon as she graduated, despite the opposition of her family.
Fang Fang knew that Menzhong was married and had a child who was nearly eight years old, but she thought, so what? As long as she loves him, she will make him fall in love with herself, and no one or anything can stop them from falling in love.
When Fang Fang said this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull up a wry smile: "Now that I think about it, how conceited and naΓ―ve I was at that time." It's really for love that I can give up everything, that kind of desperate practice for love, if it were now, I would definitely not be able to do it. β
Lin Yaran didn't speak, she didn't know what to say.
If Fang Fang hadn't been so conceited and ran to find the door back then, then now Menzheng's wife should be her, and she might marry an ordinary person and live an ordinary life, or she might be lonely for a lifetime.
Who knows? But there is no such thing as a possibility, what ifs, what happens is what happens, everything is an established fact.
"But when I arrived in Kuncheng and found the unit where Menzhong was, I learned that Menzhong had died in a mission."
When Fang Fang said this, tears couldn't help but flow.
Lin Yaran knew about the sacrifice in the door, she was not married to the door at that time, but the relationship between the door family and the Lin family, this kind of thing, the Lin family will definitely know.
When she learned that the lover she was looking for had died, Fang Fang was sad and sad, and thought of his wife and children in the door.
She thought that if she couldn't see the door, she would also see his wife and children, and she didn't have to meet them face to face, just look at them secretly.
Fang Fang inquired about the address of Menzhong's house, and when he went over with his bags, he witnessed the scene of his wife being murdered.
At that time, she was almost stupid with fright, hiding under the window at the back of the room, covering her mouth and crying silently, and she didn't dare to come out.
It wasn't until the murderer scolded and left that Fang Fang had the courage to enter the house, but at that time, the wife in the door had already died of anger.
Fang Fang looked at the woman who died tragically in a pool of blood, and was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses.
I didn't dare to stop any longer, so I hurriedly ran out.
On the way, I happened to meet Men Shaoxuan, who had just come out of his classmates after finishing their homework.
Door Shaoxuan's eyebrows are very similar to those in the door, and Fang Fang intuitively feels that this child should be the son of the door.
When he stepped forward to ask, he realized that he had not guessed wrong, Fang Fang told Men Shaoxuan with tears in his eyes that he was a good friend of his parents, and he was asked by his mother to take him out of here and go to school in the city.
Although the eight-year-old Men Shaoxuan didn't know much about adult things, he already knew that his father had died and would never come back.
In the following days, he had to rely on his mother for his life.
After listening to Fang Fang's words, Men Shaoxuan didn't believe it, he had to go home and ask his mother in person.
With tears in her eyes, Fang Fang told him that his mother was dead and had been killed by the bad guys.
Men Shaoxuan was so angry that he pushed Fang Fang to the ground, turned his head and ran in the direction of his house.
A home in the door, in the mountains on the outskirts of Kuncheng.
There are not many families living there, and the residents are very far from each other.
This is Menzhong's wife's home, and after Menzhong and his wife got married, they lived here together, and when Menzhong was fine, he would come back to see his wife and children.
The family has lived happily in the past eight years, but unexpectedly, almost overnight, this happiness disappeared without a trace.
Fang Fang chased Men Shaoxuan to the mountain bag not far from home, and saw many people coming out of Men Shaoxuan's house from a distance, and it was Men Shaoxuan's dead mother who was carried on the stretcher.
How could an eight-year-old child ever see this, and he fell to his knees and cried unconscious.
Fang Fang didn't dare to walk into the crowd with Men Shaoxuan, but chose to leave silently with him.
In fact, Fang Fang, who was in his early twenties at the time, didn't know how he should place Men Shaoxuan, so he left his hometown with Men Shaoxuan and returned to his home with his enthusiasm at that time.
Fang Fang is Fang Jiliang's daughter who has been spoiled since she was a child, and she was also surprised to see her baby daughter come back with a child.
After asking about the situation, he couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that our Fang family would also have a righteous act to save people." β
Ever since Fang Jiliang planned to wash the Fang family's family background, he acted in accordance with the law-abiding good citizens.
In this way, Men Shaoxuan settled in the Fang family.
Fang Fang also has an elder brother named Fang Kun, Fang Kun has a daughter, who is the same age as Men Shaoxuan, called Fang Yuanyuan.
Since then, the two children have been in school together and living together.
Not long after, Fang Jiliang immigrated to Australia with his family, and Men Shaoxuan also went to Australia, and stayed there until he was eighteen years old.
Fang Fang sighed, "Alas, I thought that I would spend my life in Australia with Shaoxuan, but I didn't expect this kid to say nothing, but in his heart he kept thinking about avenging his parents." Eight-year-old boy, what a seed of hatred planted in his heart! β
"I really didn't know that kid was so preoccupied, if I knew, I would stare at him and not let him leave me half a step!"
Fang Fang said as she couldn't help but shed tears again.
Lin Yaran also sighed, "When I learned that my uncle had sacrificed, my father-in-law rushed over with someone in person, but it was still a step too late. The sister-in-law was still poisoned, and the child disappeared without a trace. My father-in-law has been looking for a long time, and even now he has not given up looking for the child, but he didn't expect the child to be taken away by you. β
Speaking of this, Lin Yaran raised her head and looked at Fang Fang fixedly, her eyes seemed to be much softer than before, but she was still confused: "You know that the child still has relatives, why don't you send him back to the door?" β
Fang Fang smiled bitterly, "You say I'm selfish, or it's okay to say that I'm deliberate." But you don't know, the boy looked much like his father. β
In fact, at the beginning, Fang Fang had thought that he should send Men Shaoxuan back to his family. But seeing that Men Shaoxuan looked more and more like Menzhong, Fang Fang felt selfish in her heart, she thought, this may be a kind of compensation from God for herself, she can't be with Menzhong in this life, so she let Men Shaoxuan, who looks very similar to Menzhong, accompany her instead of him.
Lin Yaran tugged at the corners of her mouth and said with a wry smile: "You are indeed very selfish, you just want him to accompany you instead of Menzhong, haven't you thought about how uncomfortable he feels when he leaves his relatives?" β
Fang Fang shook his head and expressed his disagreement with Lin Yaran's words, "Men Zhong has no blood relationship with the Men family, right?" And Shaoxuan has never seen anyone from the family since he was a child, although his surname is Men, but it has nothing to do with your family. So what does it matter if he grew up with me or if he grew up in the door? β
Fang Fang's words made Lin Yaran a little speechless.
She was right, according to Fang Fang's analysis, there is really no difference between Men Shaoxuan and her growing up in the Door family.
But thinking about it carefully, Lin Yaran felt that it was wrong: "Even if he has not met the people of the Men family, even if he is not related to the Men family, but I believe that for an eight-year-old child, the uncle must have more or less introduced the people of the Men family to him, and in his mind, maybe he has long recognized himself as a member of the Men family, after all, he is also surnamed Men!" β
Fang Fang nodded, "Indeed, this point is something I ignored, after all, I was still young at the time, and I didn't think about things thoroughly, and I only relied on a moment of righteousness. Now it seems that I was really wrong in my decision to take him away. β
"So where is he now? You don't know, he's a piece of the old man's heart. The old man said, if you want to see people in life and see corpses in death, if you don't find him, the old man won't be blind even if he dies! β
Thinking of the time when her father-in-law was sad every time he looked at the photos of Men Zhong and Men Shaoxuan, Lin Yaran felt a burst of sourness in her heart.
Now that he knows that it was Fang Fang who took Men Shaoxuan away, then he has found him.
The old man will be very happy to know the news.
But when Lin Yaran looked at Fang Fang with hope, Fang Fang couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly: "I don't know, I don't know where he is now!" β
Lin Yaran looked incredulous, "How come?" Hasn't he been with you all the time? β
Fang Fang sighed and said with tears in his eyes: "Eighteen years ago, when he was eighteen years old, he ran away from home without sound and without warning. I have also been looking for him for 18 years, and this time I came back because the people sent out heard that he had returned to China, so I rushed over. β
"Ah......h
Lin Yaran didn't expect that the hope that had just been ignited would be shattered in just an instant.
Men Shaoxuan disappeared again, and he had disappeared as early as eighteen years ago!
Eighteen years? How many eighteen years can there be in life!
"If he were alive, he would be thirty-six years old by now, right? I remember my father-in-law saying that he was eight years older than my family. Lin Yaran muttered to herself.
Fang Fang nodded, "That's right, thirty-six years old is the best years of a man's life. β
He ...... Why did you run away from home? β
Lin Yaran thought, there must be a reason for running away from home, did he leave without warning?
Is there really no reason at all?
Thinking of some things eighteen years ago, Fang Fang's eyes began to be a little confused.
Sighing, "Maybe it's my fault, it's all the result of my own actions!" β
If it wasn't for his soft-heartedness and agreed to help his niece, maybe Men Shaoxuan would still be by his side at this time.
When I think about it, I still did something wrong, it was so wrong, I really didn't take into account his feelings!
