Qin Changsheng parked his car at the entrance of Sishui Lane and strode to Yuan Shanshan's house. He saw Yuan Shanshan's mother, Liu Zilan, pouring water for a woman inside the house.
This woman was sitting there with her back to Qin Changsheng. Although her appearance could not be seen, from her dress and the demeanor she was sitting there, she could tell that she was a woman with good temperament and good background.
Hearing Qin Changsheng's voice, Liu Zilan raised her head and smiled: "Look, Qin Changsheng is here."
The woman with her back to Qin Changsheng trembled, stood up, and turned to look at Qin Changsheng.
This is a middle-aged woman in her forties, dressed simply and smartly. Although there are some wrinkles on her face, it can be seen that she was a gorgeous beauty when she was young.
"Are you Qin Changsheng, Zi Nan's son?"
The woman looked Qin Changsheng up and down, with some excitement and joy on her face, and walked over quickly.
"Aunt Chai, it's me."
Qin Changsheng nodded and looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him with feelings.
This woman's real name is Chai Kongqing. She was Su Zinan's classmate when she was studying in college in Beijing. She and Su Zinan were roommates and had a very good relationship.
Back then, Su Zinan unexpectedly became pregnant with Qin Changsheng, and after she was expelled and returned to Jiangzhou, Chai Kongqing would contact Su Zinan from time to time to express concern about Su Zinan's condition.
Later, Chai Kongqing graduated and started working. After he had income, he would often help Su Zinan. However, Su Zinan was a stronger person. When he made money later and recovered a little, he paid back all the money Chai Kongqing helped.
.
In the nearly twenty years since Su Zinan returned to Jiangzhou, Chai Kongqing and Su Zinan have not met each other, but they have never stopped exchanging letters and text messages after communication developed.
Three years ago, for a period of time after Su Zinan was killed, Chai Kongqing sent text messages to Su Zinan and was concerned about Su Zinan's current situation. Qin Changsheng couldn't bear to tell Chai Kongqing the news of Su Zinan's death, so he continued to talk to Chai Kongqing in Su Zinan's tone.
Kong Qing exchanged text messages for a while, which made him feel that his mother had not been forgotten, as if she was still alive in this world.
It was not until Qin Changsheng was imprisoned that he broke off contact with Chai Kongqing.
Today Chai Kongqing suddenly came to Jiangzhou and appeared in front of Qin Changsheng. Without asking, Qin Changsheng guessed the reason behind it. It was probably because yesterday's court hearing was posted on the Internet and Chai Kongqing saw it.
As expected, Chai Kongqing stared at Qin Changsheng, his eyes became cloudy, and said sadly: "I accidentally saw the news yesterday and found out that your mother passed away three years ago."
"I have been abroad for the past few years. Not long after I returned to China, I saw the news of your mother's death, so I rushed over overnight..."
At this point, she choked up and couldn't speak any more. After calming down her emotions, she patted Qin Changsheng's shoulder hard again, nodded her head and said: "Good boy, you are worthy of your mother's insistence on giving birth to you.
It was you who brought you up through all the hardships, and it was you who allowed her to be wronged and let the sinners receive the punishment they deserve."
"Aunt Chai, thank you for coming to see my mother. You are her only friend in this life. I believe her spirit in heaven will be very happy to see you come to see her."
Qin Changsheng took a deep breath and expressed his sincere thanks.
It is said that a friend in need is a friend indeed, and abjection can reveal a person's heart. Su Zinan did not have many friends in his life, but Chai Kongqing was the only one. Although Qin Changsheng met Chai Kongqing for the first time, his feelings for Chai Kongqing were extremely passionate.
In Qin Changsheng's heart, Chai Kongqing and Su Zixi are equally important.
"Auntie, besides paying homage to your mother, there is another purpose for coming here this time."
Chai Kongqing said: "Your mother and I are like sisters. I have always regarded you as my own child. Now that your mother has passed away, I want to take care of you on your mother's behalf."
After a pause, Chai Kongqing asked with a smile: "I want to take you to the capital, arrange a job for you, and provide you with a good living environment. What do you think?"
Chai Kongqing didn't understand Qin Changsheng's current situation, but simply believed that Su Zinan had passed away and Qin Changsheng had no support at all. However, she still had some abilities and wanted to help her deceased good sister and take good care of the child.
In today's society, if young people do not have the accumulation and support of their parents, it is not easy for young people to succeed in society on their own.
For young people like Qin Changsheng who have not finished college and have been in prison, it is even more difficult for them to gain a foothold and obtain good living conditions on their own.
Qin Changsheng was moved in his heart, shook his head and said with a smile: "Aunt Chai, thank you for your kindness, but I can take care of myself, and I am living a good life now."
Chai Kongqing asked: "Do you have a job now?"
"Yes." Qin Changsheng replied.
Chai Kongqing then asked: "What kind of job do you do? How much can you earn?"
"Well, I work in the security department of a group, with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands. But I still have shares in the group, and the annual dividends should be eight figures. I also serve as an honorary professor at a university, with a salary and allowance.
There are hundreds of thousands of them every year."
Qin Changsheng answered truthfully and was not embarrassed to say more. He felt that just saying these two things was enough to reassure Chai Kongqing.
However, when he heard what Qin Changsheng said, Chai Kongqing was full of disbelief. He looked Qin Changsheng up and down and sighed helplessly: "You kid, how can you be as stubborn as your mother? You obviously have nothing, but you still want to
It's just a shame to pretend to be fat. Every time I sent money to your mother, she would either refuse it and say that she had enough, or she would return it to me immediately after using it for a period of time, insisting on making clear arrangements with me."
Qin Changsheng said dumbfounded: "Aunt Chai, you misunderstood, I really didn't lie to you."
Chai Kongqing asked: "Then do you have a car?"
In her opinion, if what Qin Changsheng just said is true, then there should at least be a good mobility scooter. Just by looking at the car, she can naturally tell whether what Qin Changsheng said is true or false.
"Yes, I drove here. The car is outside the alley." Qin Changsheng replied.
"Then you can drive me to a restaurant to have a casual meal. I rushed here all night last night and went to worship your mother when I arrived in Jiangzhou. I haven't eaten anything yet and I'm hungry."
Upon hearing this, Qin Changsheng quickly agreed and took Chai Kongqing away from Yuan's house. Before leaving, he thanked Liu Zilan. Liu Zilan smiled politely and sent them out the door.
When he arrived outside Surabaya Alley, looking at the Land Rover with a Jinling license plate, Chai Kongqing asked suspiciously: "Is this car yours?"
Qin Changsheng nodded and said, "Yes, mine."
Zhu Yeqing gave the car to Qin Changsheng to drive. Considering his relationship with Zhu Yeqing, it didn't matter if he said it was his own car.
Chai Kongqing didn't ask further. He wrote down the license plate number, edited it into a text message, and sent it to someone, asking the other person to check who the owner of the license plate number was. Then he pointed to a small restaurant not far away and said, "I
It looks like that restaurant is good, let’s go there and have something to eat.”
Qin Changsheng originally planned to take Chai Kongqing to Hexuan for dinner, but when he saw that she wanted to eat in a small restaurant, he didn't care and nodded in agreement.
In fact, in Qin Changsheng's opinion, these small restaurants on the street have more fireworks smell and are more comfortable to eat.
