Chapter 339: Returning Home
In fact, the first purpose of An Xin and Li Yuanhao's trip was to send Mei home. γKendo exclusive no pop-up advertisement reading. Ling Xi found Mei's biological parents in the huge missing person DNA bank inside the police station, and sure enough, they were in the suburbs of a second-tier city in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
An old stone path that winds its way up. There are some dilapidated horse-head walls and small green tiles, which can be seen how solid this family once was. There were also two tall loquat trees at the door, and not far from the door of the house there was a small stream, and on the dark green stream, occasionally one or two narrow awning boats slowly sailed past. The green willows on both sides of the river are waving in the wind, and the peach trees that have been in full bloom have drawn out their lush green branches and leaves.
Walking on this mossy stone road, the air is still filled with a sweet and slightly drunken aroma. Mei took a deep breath and said with an intoxicated face: "Sister, this fragrance is so familiar!" β
An Xin also took a deep breath, feeling the refreshing slightly sweet and slightly spicy fragrance, directly through the nasal cavity and running into her lungs, feeling that the whole person was going to be drunk. She held Mei's hand and said, "Mei, although your eyes can't see now, you must remember this smell, this is the smell of home." β
"Hmm." Mei nodded vigorously.
Li Yuanhao hugged An Xin's shoulder, pointed not far away and said, "Look, Mei's family is already waiting over there." β
An Xin looked up, and sure enough, she saw a young man holding a gray-haired, old-looking woman looking anxiously at the door of the house. An Xin couldn't help but pull Mei to trot up, and she said happily: "Go faster, don't let your brother and your mother wait for a long time." β
Mei laughed and ran with An Xin, although she couldn't see it, she knew that An Xin would not let herself fall. Along the way, the laughter of the two was sprinkled like silver bells, and Li Yuanhao had to smile and shake his head, following closely behind the two.
The young man was the first to notice the three of them, he pulled his mother, pointed in the direction of the three, and said happily, "Mom, look." It seems that my sister is back. β
"Really? Did you see it clearly? Is my baby back? The gray-haired woman muttered that she had experienced so much disappointment that she could not believe the good news. Her vision was blurry though. But he still stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look.
Brother Mei's eyes are good, although he is so far away, he still looks very carefully. He said happily, "Mom, this time it's true." My sister had a black mole in the corner of her left eye, which I still remember, and she didn't look much different except for being thinner. β
"Then it's really going to be a girl this time." The woman god qing became more and more moving.
"That's right. It's true. The young man said happily.
An Xin took Mei and trotted to the door of the house, and after the four of them stood facing each other, An Xin asked aloud: "Are you from Bai Ping's family?" β
The woman immediately stepped forward. God Seji said movingly: "I am Bai Ping, I am Bai Ping." Where's my baby? She could vaguely see two figures standing in front of her, one tall and one short. But I couldn't see the specific face of the figure clearly.
Perhaps it was the cowardice of the village, Mei reversed her previous ease and movement, showed a little timidity, and hesitated to stop. An Xin nudged her from behind, but Mei not only didn't step forward, but grabbed An Xin's arm and hid behind her. An Xin couldn't help crying and laughing.
Bai Ping rubbed her eyes vigorously, she stretched out her hand tremblingly, and said movingly: "Nannan, Nannan, come to Mom quickly." β
Mei was still a little shy, An Xin had to forcibly take her hand, put her in Bai Ping's hands, and then said to Mei: "This is your mother, all these years in order to find you, her hair has turned white, and her eyes have cried, you can call her quickly!" β
An Xin's words made the three members of the reunited family burst into tears in an instant, and Mei called softly: "Mom......" suddenly cried and fell into Bai Ping's arms. Such a cry of joy made An Xin's nose a little sour, she raised her hand and quietly wiped her eyes, Li Yuanhao said with some amusement: "People are a family reunion, so they cry." You're so dignified, what are you crying about? β
An Xin said with some sadness: "Of the five children, there is only one family that can be reunited. The other four families didn't know that their children had turned into a pile of bones, and they were still enduring the torment of the separation of flesh and bones, and this torment was still endless, and thinking about it made people feel extremely uncomfortable in their hearts. β
Li Yuanhao sighed and said: "The separation of flesh and blood happens every day, there are those traffickers who are interested in interests and have no people, and there are also those careless parents. I only hope that parents in the world will take care of their children and don't let this happen again. β
After a long time, it was Mei's brother who was the first to come to his senses, and he took the lead in greeting An Xin and Li Yuanhao who were standing aside. Then he comforted Bai Ping and Mei, who were still crying: "Mom, it's a happy thing for my sister to come back, don't cry." The doctors have said that your eyes will have problems because you cry too much, and there are still customers! β
Bai Ping let go of Mei at this time, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said a little embarrassed: "Look at me, I'm too happy, please come in quickly." Then he said to Brother Mei: "Go and call your father back, just say that this time it is true, our family is back." β
"Great!" Brother Mei happily agreed, and ran away quickly.
"Let's go, let's go home." Bai Ping held Mei's hand tightly, for fear that she would lose it, and turned around and walked towards the house. There was also a high threshold at the door, and without An Xin reminding her in her ear, Mei kicked on it, and she stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Li Yuanhao, who followed closely, grabbed her.
Bai Ping hurriedly asked nervously, "Nannan, you didn't fall, did you?" Looking at the mother and daughter who were not good at the eyes, An Xin sighed secretly. She glanced at Li Yuanhao, and then helped Mei, while Li Yuanhao supported Bai Ping with a heart, and the four of them walked into the courtyard together.
Entering the narrow courtyard, you can see an old dark brown rattan chair in the center of the patio, and under the eaves of the small green tiles, there is also a row of empty wine urns made of coarse porcelain firing.
A chubby woman came out of a room with a basin in her hand ready to pour water. When she saw the four of them walking in together, she said in a loud voice, "Bai Ping, is this time true?" β
Bai Ping said happily: "It's true, it's true, Sister Liu, this time it's really my family back." Later, your whole family will come to my house for dinner, and everyone will celebrate together. β
"That's great. We'll be right here. Sister Liu was so happy that she forgot to pour the water. I took it back as it was, and I could vaguely hear her shouting happily in her room.
Bai Ping took An Xin and a few people into the east wing together, and the room was not big. Most of the furniture is very old, there are hardly any decent furniture, but it is very neat and tidy.
When you enter the door, you can see some hair on the wall. There is also a photo of the child Zhou Sui. The child in the photo is chubby, with a lovely flush on his cheeks. Wearing a new red cotton jacket. There was also a striking red dot on his forehead, and his eyes were slitted with a smile. A black mole at the corner of the left eye is particularly eye-catching.
Next to the wall, on a square wooden square table with no lacquer, was also covered with a green gauze. You can still see a few bowls of leftover dishes inside. Most of them are vegetarian dishes, which shows that the family is very poor.
"The house is very simple, which makes you laugh." Bai Ping said a little embarrassed: "Me and my father." Over the years, in order to find Nannan, I have searched all over the country. That little salary was all spent on the road. There are also many people who say that there is news of Nannan, and they ask us for clue fees, and they have also been cheated out of a lot of money. Over the years, I have been scared of being fooled. So. You called yesterday and said you were going to send her back, and I thought it was a new trick that those crooks came up with. I'm sorry. β
"It's okay, the key is that you can really be reunited as a family, it's a great joy." Li Yuanhao said without mind.
After Bai Ping asked the three of them to sit down on the sofa that had collapsed a little, she said to Mei with joy: "Nannan, look at the house, do you still have any impression?" And this sofa, when you were a kid, you liked to jump barefoot on it, and the springs in the sofa were broken a few times. She laughed to herself.
"I'm sorry, I, I can't see." Mei originally had a shy smile on her face, but after listening to Bai Ping's words, the faint smile disappeared, and she leaned uneasily to An Xin's side, her head hanging deeply.
An Xin took Mei's hand and sighed secretly, she said as tactfully as possible: "Aunt Bai, Mei's situation is a little special now. The traffickers who abducted her back then were professional beggars who did something to the children in order to beg for more money. β
"What did those people do to my nannan?" An Xin's heavy tone made Bai Ping's heart feel a strong unease. She was so happy just now that she forgot to ask about Mei's current situation. But her eyes were crying so much that she could only see a rough outline, and she couldn't see clearly at all. So she grabbed Mei nervously and groped around her anxiously.
Mei didn't say anything, she was a little uncomfortable and wanted to hide, but An Xin said to her seriously: "This is your mother, your dearest person, and the only person in the world who tolerates you unconditionally." You don't have to be taboo about anything in front of her, whether it's happy or unhappy, you can tell her. Tell her all about all these years. β
Bai Ping also said in a loud voice: "Yes, yes, Nannan, you have to tell your mother everything." β
Li Yuanhao saw that Mei was still a little hesitant, so he said to An Xin: "Let's go out for a walk, let their mother and daughter talk to themselves." β
An Xi nodded, stood up and walked out with Li Yuanhao. When I came to the narrow patio, there was a burst of humidity, and the breeze mixed with the smell of wine blew, which made people drunk.
There was a buzzing sound in the room, but Li Yuanhao and An Xin were standing next to the old rattan chair, An Xin reached out and gently stroked the smooth rattan, one by one, she only felt that her palms were cold, but she felt that her heart was hot.
Especially when a sharp and sad cry suddenly erupted in the room, An Xin felt as if she was being roasted on a fire, and her heart was very uncomfortable. She wanted to do something for this suffering family.
After contemplating for a moment, An Xin said to Li Yuanhao, "Do you remember the batch of gold ingots we got in Changbai Mountain? You sold them all and sold them for a good price. β
"Remember! You also said you didn't know what to do with the money. Why did you suddenly remember this today? Li Yuanhao asked puzzled.
An Xin bit her lip and said, "I want to take out half of that money to help these families whose families are poor because their children are lost." Do you think it's okay? β
"Absolutely." Li Yuanhao very much agreed with An Xin's decision, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Actually, our Li family also has a charitable fund, but it is not specifically for the families of these lost children. If you really have this idea, I can ask someone from our charity fund to help you make a proposal and see how you want to do it. β
"Thank you, husband." An Xin gently snuggled into his broad, warm arms. To be continued 466
