Chapter 42: Aunt Wang's Past
Aunt Wang's full name is Wang Xiaoyi, and she was also a popular newspaper editor in Nanshu City that year, mainly responsible for life.
Nanshu City is in another province, adjacent to the province where Yicheng is located, the difference is that the province where Nanshu is located is all south of the Yangtze River, while the province where Yicheng is located is cut by the Yangtze River, and Haizhou is just in the north of the Yangtze River.
It was a sunny afternoon, the wind was beautiful, and Wang Xiaoyi was reading a letter from a reader on his desk.
When she looked deeply, she was awakened by a cry, a strange woman with red eyes from crying.
Holding a photo in his hand, it was a photo of Li Wenji and the old man when he was a child, Wang Xiaoyi didn't know what happened.
"What's wrong with you?" ”
The woman handed the photo to Wang Xiaoyi and told him that the child was her son, who had been abducted by the old man yesterday.
The photo was transferred by her from the nearby surveillance, hoping that Wang Xiaoyi could help her write a thought-provoking missing person notice.
Wang Xiaoyi is a person with a sense of justice and at the same time a caring person, after listening to the woman's statement, she was so annoyed that she slapped the table again, looking angry.
Wang Xiaoyi tried her best to soothe the woman who was crying so much that her face changed, asked her to go home and wait for the news, and helped her write a manuscript for free and publish it in the newspaper.
Moreover, every issue is published, and in a palm-sized space, the photo has been around for a long time.
The title of that manuscript was: Another Painful Thing
It reads as follows:
In recent years, there have been more and more cases of human trafficking, and we are actively promoting parents' safety education and related measures for their children.
Just yesterday, a young mother who was almost crazy came to the newspaper office crying. Yes, her daughter had been abducted, and the young mother, who seemed to have turned gray overnight, had red and swollen eyes, and still had bruises on her neck, cheeks, and arms, and she cried out in a hoarse voice about the physical features of her child, and she cried out hoarsely: "Please! Please! Give me back my baby, you can do whatever you want! Please! Please! Please! I beg you ......"
She wanted the person who abducted her child to know how much she loved her child, and hoped to use her sincerity to move others. She then pulled out a photograph of a ragged, unkempt homeless man who she believed had abducted her child. She said that that day someone saw the old man holding a child running around in a panic, whether it was or not, we hope that those who see it can actively contact us and contribute a little bit of our strength to help this poor mother.
We also hope that this old man can be kind, there is no difficulty that cannot be solved, if you can see this report, we are waiting for you in the wind and rain!
Finally, we would like to remind you that, since the implementation of the reforms, there has been a growing imbalance between men and women in the general population, and that more and more men are single-handed. Human traffickers are particularly fond of targeting girls, using various methods to lure and deceive girls, and to provide more children with the ability to distinguish between right and wrong.
After this manuscript was published, the nightmare of the old man and Li Wenji came, they used to be able to beg for a living, and as soon as the newspaper appeared, they became street rats that everyone shouted and beaten, and it was the norm to drink and starve.
Wang Xiaoyi's emotional character is so that in order to calmly analyze and verify the truth of the matter, she just felt that the woman was really pitiful, so she wrote the story of the poor mother's tragic experience out of sympathy, and also called on a large number of insiders to help her.
For a moment, that short manuscript was like a red notice, everywhere.
During that time, she didn't know how much disaster she had caused to others, she didn't know that she was being used by that scheming woman, and she even felt that she was very righteous.
It wasn't until three years later that Wang Xiaoyi realized that she not only wronged a good person, but also became a wicked person who aided and abetted the abuse.
The so-called "poor mother" was arrested by the police, and it turned out that she was a real human trafficker.
It's just that the child she abducted at that time was lost by her, so she was beaten severely by the people behind her.
She just thought that the old man had taken the child, and in order to retaliate, she made up an emotional story for Wang Xiaoyi in a flashy manner, and she burst into tears when she talked about the pain.
All this just stems from the selfish desires of this woman's heart, making an unrelated person suffer as well, and then giving some pleasure to her twisted mind.
Wang Xiaoyi felt very guilty after realizing that she had wronged a good person, so she wanted to rehabilitate the old man in the newspaper, clarify the truth of the matter, and solemnly apologize.
But this still couldn't make her heart feel at peace, and Wang Xiaoyi began to inquire about the whereabouts of the old man again.
But she wanted to repeat her old tricks and tried to mobilize insiders to help her find it, but time has passed, her reputation has been stinked in the industry, and no one is willing to help her. It's more about no longer trusting.
The letters from the former readers also turned into invective and ridicule, and for a moment she seemed to have lost everything.
Wang Xiaoyi's guilt and the negative impact of this incident eventually led her to voluntarily quit her job at the newspaper.
personally went to the places where the old man had appeared to find out the whereabouts of you and Li Wenji, and finally, the sky paid off, and a year later, she found the suffering grandson in Haizhou.
After finding it, Wang Xiaoyi found out that the old man had amnesia five years ago, and the doctor told her that it was caused by a violent shock or a huge grief.
In the next few years, Wang Xiaoyi has been sponsoring the old man, helping them settle down in Haizhou, while leading him to see a doctor, while finding out what happened to the old man that caused him to be like this.
Later, Wang Xiaoyi found a report about a cruel car accident in Ningzhou, so she took it over and showed it to the old man, but unexpectedly, after the old man saw the picture in the newspaper, he was silent for a long time.
In the end, he started crying, and the doctor said that he had regained his memory under severe stimulation.
......
Although this is an unbearable past, Aunt Wang tells it very smoothly. Even with tears in their eyes, it is a remembrance of the past, not guilt or self-blame.
Then she told Mo Jingting and An Zixian about living with the old man later.
......
A few years before the old man regained his memory, Wang Xiaoyi's husband ran away because of a business failure and owed a lot of money, throwing a bunch of messes to her, she had no children and no daughters, and she was about to enter an insane asylum every day when she was urged by those creditors.
Later, after the old man learned about this incident, he took the initiative to contact Wang Xiaoyi and helped to share the burden, and little by little he blocked the money eye.
Later, the old man's health deteriorated, and the misunderstanding between him and Li Wenji was never resolved, and there was no one to take care of him.
After Wang Xiaoyi found out, he wanted to move in with the old man, so that it would be convenient to take care of him, but the old man was afraid of other people's gossip and always refused.
Wang Xiaoyi was unwilling to compromise, so she proposed to the old man directly, and took the old man's mobile phone and sent WeChat directly to Li Wenji and those former neighbors and friends to tell them that they were going to get married.
......
After listening to Aunt Wang's past, Mo Jingting and An Zixian were very touched, but they didn't expect that the two would have such an adventure, and finally accompany each other to old age, which is both touching and enviable.
After the meal, Mo Jingting took the initiative to help clean up the dishes, chopsticks, tables and chairs, and when she finished cleaning up, Aunt Wang pulled Mo Jingting to sit in the living room and pulled up the homework.
It seems that I haven't spoken for many years, and it seems that I have already identified this granddaughter-in-law, and I feel extremely cordial.
Mo Jingting felt Aunt Wang's love and enthusiasm, and finally asked, "Auntie, what happened to the misunderstanding between Li Wenji and the old man?" Is it convenient to talk about? ”。
"Of course...... Of course it's convenient," Aunt Wang paused, "Unfortunately, this misunderstanding will never have a chance to be solved again, and here's the thing." ”
