CHAPTER XIII. He Was Abducted and Trafficked for Three Years6
Li Chengming looked out of the car window intently, and the tree that used to be immobile now looked as if it could run.
He clutched a bottle of yogurt in his hand, which his mother had bought for him.
He had been in a car.
But he couldn't remember anything before he was five years old.
On the two times he sat in the car after the age of five, he was not allowed to look at the window.
When he was sold for the first time, because he resisted so badly, he let him stay in the trunk for a while.
He also drank yogurt.
But three years later, he had forgotten what his favorite taste was.
Chang Lu looked at Li Chengming while drinking juice, and when he was in Qi County, Chang Lu opened a room and asked Li Chengming to take a bath.
She went out to buy a new set of clothes for Li Chengming.
The saying that people rely on clothing is not false.
Now Li Chengming is wearing clean and neat clothes, although his skin is dark and thin, and there is a scar on his face.
But the advantage is that the facial features are good-looking, and the dimples are even more obvious after slimming down.
A slight pouting brings out a bay of dimples.
Li Chengming turned around and spoke to her. As his mouth opened and closed, the dimples disappeared from time to time.
"Your man broke with you?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Chang Lu almost choked, but he was still so serious, he seemed to really think that it was right to speak like this.
Chang Lu swallowed a mouthful of juice and tightened the cap again.
"Mom and Dad are divorced." Chang Lu has always liked to tell the truth, if there is an ordinary 8-year-old child in front of him. Chang Lu may tell a white lie and lure him again. But in front of him is Lee Seung-myung.
"It's not that Dad doesn't love you, Dad has been with Mom to find you for a year, but there is really little hope. Mom is so crazy, and Dad has his troubles. Facing a wife who is about to go crazy, bottomless expenses, pressure from parents. But he still loves you. ”
Li Chengming lowered his head, so that Chang Lu couldn't see his expression clearly.
After a while, he raised his head and said to Chang Lu, "Why don't you give up?" Have another one or find another man to marry. ”
This was what he wanted to know most about why she didn't give up.
Looking for him, it was not worth it in the first place.
"Because mom loves you." Chang Lu smiled at him gently.
She gestured and said, "When you were born, you were only as long as your arm. At that time, my mother looked at you and thought that she would protect you for the rest of her life. Slowly, you'll roll over, you'll be able to walk, you'll be able to call your mom. Mom is by your side all the time. ”
"But you still lost me." Li Chengming interrupted her, "I still lost it." ”
With that, he turned his head and continued to look at the window.
Changlu opened his mouth on the side, but he didn't say anything after all.
She booked a ticket to Yun'an City this time.
The original owner's hometown is in Guqing Town, Yun'an City.
At that time, the original owner went bankrupt in order to find his son, and the compensation obtained from the divorce and the previous savings were all smashed into it.
The original owner even sold the house that his parents bought in the place where the original owner lived in order to be closer to his only daughter and grandson.
Only the old house of the original owner's parents has not been willing to sell.
Chang Lu is also ready to take Li Chengming to live in Guqing Town.
Yun'an City is not very far from Lushi, and after taking the car to Lushi, I booked two plane tickets.
Three hours later, they flew to Yun'an City.
Yun'an City belongs to the south, clear and graceful.
Her hometown Guqing Town is even more beautiful and belongs to the tourist attraction.
The house in my hometown is located next to a small bridge, and there is clear water in front of the door.
There are often people rowing by.
Chang Lu took Li Chengming's hand and returned to Guqing Town, which is always very lively, especially in summer, when there are many people who come to travel and escape the heat.
"From this small bridge, that is, opposite, is the snack street of our Guqing Town, wait for your mother to take you to eat delicious food in the evening." Chang Lu said to Li Chengming while searching the memories of the original owner in a carpet way.
He finally pursed his lips and smiled lightly, and let out a soft "um".
The old house has been uninhabited for many years, and it has fallen into a layer of dust.
Chang Lu brushed the dust off the courtyard gate with his hand, and his choked eyes suddenly turned red.
She took the key out of her pocket, found the key to the compound door, and inserted it into the lock.
Just listen to the "crunch", and the door that has not been pushed open for many years is pushed open.
Lin Xu, who was enjoying the shade in the yard next door, sat up abruptly when he heard the source of this sound.
She took a casual drying rack from home and went out in the direction of Lao Chang's house.
"Hello!"
Chang Lu heard a familiar voice behind her, and she turned her head.
I saw Lin Su holding the drying rack, her eyes were red, she finally rushed over violently, raised the drying rack, and finally fell gently.
"You damn girl, you still know to come back."
Chang Lu didn't hide, she smiled and coquettishly to Lin Su: "Grandma, I was wrong." ”
Li Chengming looked at Chang Lu with some surprise.
Lin Su noticed Li Chengming on the side, she touched the scar on Li Chengming's face, and her tears were like beads with broken threads.
"Obviously, does it hurt?"
Li Chengming shook his head.
Lin Su is Chang's mother's best friend, and she is also small. In his early years, he was unladylike, and he could not have children in his life after abortion. He loves Chang Lu as his own child, and Chang Lu also treats her as his second biological mother.
Originally, I wanted to take Lin Su over to pay homage.
But Lin Su was reluctant to leave Guqing Town, so he had to give up.
Every year, I take time to visit Lin Su.
"Why don't you stay at my house?" Lin Su pulled Chang Lu with one hand and Li Chengming with the other.
Chang Lu got the maternal love from her that she hadn't gotten for a long time, which came from Chang Lu's own desire.
She held Lin Su's hand and coquettishly treated her, like a real mother and daughter: "Grandma, Mingming and I will live in Guqing Town in the future." You can move in with us, too. ”
Lin Su is very useful. She will not be polite to Chang Lu.
immediately said that he wanted to help Chang Lu pack his things.
In Lin Su's words, "You are squeamish, how can you clean it up." ”
It took a long day to finish.
"Grandma, I'm going to take Ming Ming to the snack street. Are you going? Chang Lu asked Lin Su who was sitting on the sofa while washing the dishes.
Originally, I was going to eat out, but Lin Su didn't allow it. You can only eat at home and then go outside.
"I'm not going. Old arms and legs, go to bed early. ”
"Good night, Grandma." After Chang Lu said this, he led Li Chengming out.
The bridge is very short, and the handrails are decorated with some colored lights. The snack street opposite is lit up and bustling.
Li Chengming felt that this place was both familiar and unfamiliar.
He misses the old days now, but in fact, he can only think of poor families, embarrassing relationships, and leaky houses, not enough to eat.
He took advantage of the fact that he was close to the snack street, and the voice of people gradually came.
"Will you have another child in the future without me?" Li Chengming actually wanted to ask this sentence all along.
He wanted to go back to his old life, like a dream. That's why he didn't hesitate to follow Chang Lu.
But he didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that his mother would think he was too dissatisfied. and sent him away or sold him.
Taking advantage of the noisy voice, he plucked up the courage to say a gamble. Let's see if his mother can hear and answer him.
"No, it won't." Chang Lu squatted down to eye level with him, and said to him seriously, "I have no plans to have another child, and I won't want you." ”
Li Chengming didn't seem to be able to hear the voices from the snack street.
In his eyes, he only had Chang Lu, who was shining by the light on the bridge, and only Chang Lu's words in his mind.
Good.
He replied to Chang Lu in his heart.
