Chapter 45: A Moonlight Memory (1)
On the brightly lit banks of the Jinjiang River, Jiang Yu stood by the roadside flower garden in a black windbreaker. The flower beds in spring and March are full of tender buds and flowers, and there are bursts of fragrance of flowers in the steep wind.
The sparse flowers and trees have become an excellent shelter. Occasionally, a passing nocturnal walker, drunk, would glance curiously at the man standing straight in the flowerbed.
This man in a trench coat is tall and has a straight back, and he guesses that his face will also be good. But it's just a guess, or a glance. In the bright and green area, everyone has their own worries, and they all have their own haste and heartache.
Moreover, behind the man, there were two young men in black suits, who looked like the man's bodyguards. Such a formation is very strange, and although the people who come and go are curious, they are afraid of getting into trouble.
Jiang Yu stood in the flower garden and saw Xin Xiaoyue swallowing something with mineral water, then hid her face and lowered her head, her shoulders twitched, shaking violently.
She's crying!
Why do people like her who can calculate and drill camps, and even those who can calmly go to the banquet when their brother is in the ICU, cry?
Jiang Yu frowned, looked at it for a while, and felt indescribable irritability about this situation that was beyond his cognition and could not be grasped.
"Ah Xun, did you say she was crying?" After a while, Jiang Yu asked Jiang Xun beside him.
Jiang Xun immediately stood straighter, and carefully observed for a moment before saying, "Back to Jiu Shao, I'm afraid it is." β
"Hmm."
Jiang Yu just said "um" softly, of course he wouldn't ask "why did she cry".
He just stood and looked at Xin Xiaoyue, who was hiding her face and crying by the riverside.
The lights on the riverside are bright, the surging river does not stop, and the originally thin woman sits on the empty riverside, and her back is extremely fragile.
At this moment, Jiang Yu seemed to see himself many years ago.
At that time, he experienced the most terrible thing of his life.
He was first abused by his kidnappers, and after an unknown number of days and months, he was finally tied up and thrown into a lake.
The cold water was pouring into his lungs, and he kept sinking.
Just when he was unconscious, someone lifted him up and lifted him all the way out of the water.
Coughing violently, he opened his eyes to see in the dim light the face of a young man, well-defined and dark, but the long scar on his face was a little scary.
"What's wrong?" A gentle voice asked.
"It's a baby." The man wiped a handful of water droplets from his face, and his tone was indescribably surprised.
"Huh? So what's going on? The gentle female voice was very nervous, with a tail note unique to the Shuzhong dialect.
Next, the man and the woman untied the rope that bound him and slapped the choked water out of his lungs.
"It's a little painful, but if you don't shoot it, it's easy to get a lung infection." The man said.
Jiang Yu nodded, the whole person was wooden, and he didn't have any strength.
The man saw that Jiang Yu was not in a big problem with him, so he said: "Sister, take it home first, and find Teacher Zhang to show him, so as not to fall ill, the doll is still so small." β
"Okay." The woman readily agreed, then held her waist, held her big belly, and said, "The baby is still at the third grandfather's house, you take the child back, I will take these fish and go to pick up the baby." β
"Okay." The man replied, and then said to Jiang Yu, "Don't be afraid, we are not bad people, it's dark." Today, you will stay at my house first, and tomorrow morning, I will go to the police station and ask the police to help you catch the bad guys and find your relatives. β
When Jiang Yu heard that he was going to the police station to ask for someone, he immediately grabbed the man's arm tightly, shook his head all the time, and tears flowed from his eyes.
"Doll, what's wrong? Don't you want to find your loved ones? The man asked, surprised.
Jiang Yu wanted to speak, but he couldn't speak.
During this time in captivity, he was tied up and blindfolded.
Aunt Qing would come to beat and scold him, and also scolded his mother by the way: when he was in school, his grades were scumbag, he had no brains in doing things, he just had a face, why could he marry into a wealthy family and be favored by her husband.
"I hate her showing off her wealth everywhere, and pretending to be kind to help her old classmates." Aunt Qing scolded and beat him at the same time.
At first, Jiang Yu was very sad and would ask Aunt Qing why she beat him.
Then he stopped asking, and never made a sound again. After a few days, he found that he had lost the ability to speak, unable to open his mouth, unable to make a sound.
"Doll, tell me. What's the matter? Uncle calls the shots for you. When the man saw that he did not speak, and did not understand what he meant, he urged him.
Jiang Yu couldn't speak, just shook his head and cried.
The man sighed and asked, "You don't want me to go to the police station to ask for someone, and you don't want to find relatives, right?" β
Jiang Yu nodded, now that the situation is unknown, he will not act rashly. What kind of family is the Jiang family, those people dare to kidnap him. Then, it is also possible for the police station to mix in the bad guys.
He can't show up right now, he must make sure he is safe and contact his family himself.
What's more, after Aunt Qing's incident, he really can't trust others at will. Despite the fact that this uncle looks harmless.
The man scratched his head, pondered for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Then you will stay at my house for the time being." When you calm down, we'll talk about finding your relatives, okay?"
Jiang Yu nodded again. The man smiled, packed a ticket, and said, "Don't worry, my uncle's family is poor, but if you have a bite to eat, you will have a mouthful." β
Jiang Yu was a little stunned, the man had already squatted down and said to him, "Come, baby, I'll carry you back." β
Looking at the broad and strong chest, Jiang Yu was stunned, but still slowly lay on his back.
The clothes were rough and uncomfortable, but it was an unprecedented peace of mind for him these days.
The man carried him on his back and walked all the way back.
The vast twilight made the mountains and trees in the four fields look like huge monsters in the dark, with a hideous mouth, making Jiang Yu feel scared, but he didn't seem to be afraid.
The man walked all the way, talking to him all the way.
At first, I told him that people in the countryside have a lot of tongues. His situation is complicated, and maybe the bad guys are still around. Therefore, it is said that he is the grandson of a distant cousin and has come to live here for a while.
"The grandson of my distant cousin, his name is Yun Jinghe. Someone in the village calls you Yun Jinghe, and you just nod and agree. The man admonished.
He only nodded, but the man didn't see it, and continued to introduce his family.
First of all, he said that his wife was bitten to death by a snake many years ago, and the child later got sick and died, and then he has been taking care of his sick mother and sister and has not remarried.
A few years ago, my mother also died of illness. My sister is married, but she still lives in her mother's house, and her brother-in-law is a learned Sven who reads a lot and comes from a big city.
My brother-in-law went back to the big city some time ago to do business, and my sister has a three-and-a-half-year-old daughter named Baobao, and the one in her belly is five months old.
After he babbled and introduced, he said, "Who are those people?" Today, I took advantage of the darkness to secretly go fishing and make up for my sister's body. As a result, it turned out that those people were sneaky and threw things into the reservoir, and I thought it was throwing pollutants and trying to destroy our reservoir. But there are no people who have lost their conscience, and you are still a childβ"
He spoke the Shuzhong dialect, but he spoke it very slowly, and Jiang Yu understood it completely.
That night, I went to my benefactor's house.
This house is really so big that Jiang Yu has ever seen it.
Mud walls and thatched houses, rats running around.
However, he was so tired that he fell asleep on the patched sheets. The dream was full of all kinds of horrible dreams, and he huddled up in a ball with himself in his arms, whining and crying.
