When they were about to arrive, Mu Yang woke up Xia Jing.
Xia Jing sat up, rubbed her eyes and looked out the window, confirmed her location, and pointed to a fork in the road.
"Officer Lin, go this way."
Lin Che checked the navigation and asked, "Are you sure?"
Xia Jing nodded, and Lin Che didn't ask any more questions. She turned the steering wheel, turned into the side road, and walked in the opposite direction of the hospital.
The navigation kept prompting to turn around, so Lin Che simply turned off the navigation. Under Xia Jing's command, the car stopped at the entrance of a chicken farm.
"Wait me a moment."
Xia Jing got out of the car and jogged over to knock on the door.
As soon as Xia Jing left, Mu Yang quickly got out of the car and ran to the side of the road, where he bent over and retched several times.
I didn't vomit, I just vomited a few mouthfuls of sour water, but my face was pale and my eyes were wet, which made me feel distressed.
"Are you okay?"
Lin Che's eyes were worried, and she reached out and patted Mu Yang's back. She originally wanted to make her feel more comfortable, but she didn't expect Mu Yang to shrink back, take two steps back to distance herself from Lin Che, and waved her hand, "
Don't come over here, or your clothes will be stained."
Lin Che opened the trunk and took a bottle of water and handed it over, "Rinse your mouth."
"Thanks.
Seeing that Mu Yang's expression was really bad, Lin Che was a little worried, "Can you please tell Xia Jing and come back another day and I'll take you to the hospital first?"
"It's okay. I guess I'm a little motion sick. I'll be fine in a while."
After Mu Yang finished speaking, he walked forward and happened to reach the door of the chicken farm. The iron door slowly opened. A little old man wearing a military green coat stood at the door and waved, indicating that Lin Che could drive in.
.
Xia Jing helped close the iron door and walked to the porter's window. "Uncle, you go to bed early. I will close the door when you leave later."
As soon as she finished speaking, the little old man came out carrying the charcoal basin in the concierge, and walked hunched over to the two-story bungalow at the back. As he walked, he turned back and said to Xia Jing: "It's been very cold these past two days. You don't live in that house all the time."
, it’s definitely colder.”
"Uncle, we will leave after a while. You can keep the brazier."
The little old man placed the brazier at the door, shook his shoulders, and tugged on the military coat he was wearing, "It's okay, it's okay. I have to put out the brazier when I go to sleep. I have hot water there, so I have to drink it!"
"Okay, thank you, sir."
"You're welcome."
The little old man smiled and nodded at Lin Che and Mu Yang, then turned and went downstairs.
Xia Jing took out a copper key tied with a red thread from her pocket, opened the door, reached out and touched the light cord on the side of the door, pulled it, and the incandescent lamp lit up with orange light, illuminating the small room.
The house is very simple. When you enter the door, there is a basin rack with towels and mouthwash cups, and there is only a bed.
Lin Che carried the brazier in and placed it at the end of the bed.
Xia Jing walked to the bed, opened the curtains, and looked out, just in time to see a corner of the hospital.
Xia Jing raised her finger and pointed in the direction of the hospital, "My sister lives in the room at the end of the first floor."
Lin Che and Mu Yang looked in the direction of Xia Jing's finger.
The car drove for a while, but it actually went around the back of the hospital. The straight-line distance between the chicken farm and the hospital is only about a hundred meters. Looking from this window sill, you can clearly see the people in the room.
Xia Jing sat on the bed, looked in the direction of the hospital, and said, "We visited twice at first, but after we left, Shushu would get emotional and do things that hurt herself. The last time, she stole money from the restaurant
I had more than ten blood clots stuck in my hand with a straw, and my artery was punctured. I almost couldn’t save her. The doctor advised us not to stimulate her anymore, so from then on, my parents never dared to come here again.
Every week I look forward to the doctor taking a few photos and sending them to them."
"The doctors said that Shu Shu was crazy and that she was seriously ill, but I think she actually knew everything. She did it on purpose and didn't want us to see her on purpose."
"Everyone praised Shushu since she was a child for being obedient and sensible, and knowing how much she cared about her parents. She must have been afraid that her parents would be sad if they saw her like that, so she used this method to prevent us from visiting."
"But I really miss her..."
Xia Jing's tears fell and she looked in the direction of the hospital, "Shu Shu, I really miss you. I have a lot to say to you..."
Mu Yang sat next to Xia Jing and handed a piece of paper over, "So you rented this room, right?"
Xia Jing nodded, "The proprietress of this chicken farm is very nice. She agreed as soon as I told her, and gave me the room with the best view. She also cut down a tree outside the window. The doorkeeper
My uncle is also very kind. Every time I come over, he will boil eggs for me, which are hot and watery."
Lin Che thought that this was a little girl's bed, and it was not good for a grown man like him to just sit on it, so she stood against the wall with her hands folded, not interrupting, and just listened silently.
Xia Jing moved her buttocks, stayed close to Mu Yang, and rested her head on Mu Yang's shoulder, "Sister Mu Yang, can I tell you about Shu Shu and me?"
Mu Yang's back stiffened, and the small hand on his side unconsciously tightened a little, grabbing the bed sheet.
Lin Che noticed Mu Yang's unnaturalness, but Mu Yang did not move away and allowed Xia Jing to lean on her.
"Well, you tell me and I listen."
"My parents got me accidentally pregnant. The family planning policy was very strict at that time. If I were born, they would have to pay a large fine and lose their jobs, so they didn't originally plan to have me.
mine."
"If Shushu hadn't stopped my mother from going to the hospital, crying and persuading me, I wouldn't be here anymore."
Xia Jing curled her lips, with tears in her eyes, and said with a slight smile, "My mother told me that during that time, Shu Shu had to keep half of everything she ate, and she didn't even want to buy her a dress. She couldn't do without her brother.
Sister, I made the adults relent and saved my life."
Mu Yang was a little curious, "But according to the household registration, aren't you and Xia Shu both only children?"
If this relationship could have been discovered earlier, the case would probably have been cleared up a long time ago.
"It can only be said that there are policies from above and countermeasures from below."
Xia Jing explained, "When my mother was five months pregnant with me, she couldn't cover her belly anymore, so she asked for leave from the work, saying that my grandma was sick and she wanted to go back to her hometown to take care of her. A distant relative in the village gave
I had an idea, and asked my grandma to find a family in the village, give them some money, and link my household registration to that family, so that she and my father could keep their jobs. Moreover, the rural ultrasound examination was not strict, and even
There is no need to pay any fines. The place is small and it is all about human relationships. Whether it is a hospital certificate or a household registration, everything went smoothly. When my mother took me back after her confinement, she said that I was fostered by relatives in the countryside.
Just escaped."
Lin Che and Mu Yang nodded in sync. It turned out to be like this. No wonder nothing was found at that time.
"Sisters from other families will inevitably quarrel and fight, but my sister has been very protective of me since I was a child. Even if I am criticized by my parents for doing something wrong, she will always protect me. Give me something delicious first.
She was the first to take me when something interesting came up. She gave me every chance to buy new clothes. She wore old clothes given by my mother’s colleagues. When I was sick, she was even more anxious than my parents and stayed with me all night.
She doesn’t sleep, and she is reluctant to use the pocket money given by her parents, so she saves up to buy me gifts..."
Xia Jing talked about a lot of things between the sisters, smiling, but tears flowed out unconsciously.
Sometimes, the more beautiful the memories, the more cruel the reality is.
