It is an old community with no properties. There is only a large iron gate and a mailroom. Like all communities of this era, bicycles are parked everywhere downstairs.
In a six-story building, the destination is on the top sixth floor. There is no elevator, so you can only take the stairs all the way up.
When we arrived at the door, there were brand new Spring Festival couplets posted on the door, with an upside-down Chinese character "福" in the center.
When I knocked on the door, a strong smell of smoke wafted out from inside.
The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman. When she saw Clerk Liu, she immediately put on a smile and said, "Xiao Liu is here, come on, come on!"
After letting the door open, Chen Nuo followed Clerk Liu into the house.
It looks like a very ordinary family, probably a well-off family.
There are wooden floors on the ground and there is air conditioning in the living room.
There is a middle-aged couple and an old man at home. There is also a seven or eight-year-old boy watching TV in the living room.
"This is Uncle Gu and Aunt Fang." Clerk Liu introduced: "Uncle Gu is...well, he is the child's biological uncle."
Chen Nuo nodded
He had come to understand the situation beforehand.
The child was fostered by her father's younger brother.
That is, the family of the younger brother of the man Ou Ruohua remarried.
An old lady in the family is Ou Ruohua's mother-in-law, the child's grandmother, and the biological mother of Ou Ruohua's future husband.
"Your name is...Chen..." After greeting Clerk Liu, the male owner of the house looked at Chen Nuo.
"Chen Nuo, my name is Chen Nuo." Chen Nuo nodded: "I'm here to bother you during the Chinese New Year, and I'm causing trouble for you."
Chen Nuo handed over the cigarettes and wine he brought.
The attitudes of the two hostesses have obviously changed, from being indifferent at the beginning to becoming a little more enthusiastic.
"Sit down! Sit down!"
It can be said that if Chen Nuo's half-sister did not join, this would be an ordinary family of four with three generations living under one roof.
Then Chen Nuo saw his sister. The little girl was led out of the room by the hostess.
The little girl seemed to be a little shy. She huddled behind the sofa and did not dare to speak.
Even though the hostess gently pushed the child forward, and after repeated requests, the little girl just softly shouted "Hello, aunt, hello, brother", and then refused to speak again.
The girl is very good-looking. Chen Nuo's appearance and Ou Ruohua's appearance are both outstanding. The little girl also has bright eyes, big eyes, and pink skin. She just looks a little shy, and her eyes are evasive when looking at people.
Chen Nuo was not in a hurry to get close to his sister, but carefully looked at the family.
The furnishings in the living room were quite satisfactory. Because it was Chinese New Year, there was a fruit plate on the coffee table, which contained some apples, bananas, oranges, etc. They were all commercially available fruits, as well as some melon seeds and peanuts.
The male host, the child's uncle, handed Chen Nuo a cigarette. Chen Nuo said no, so the male host lit it himself.
There was some noise at home, and the Spring Festival Gala was replayed on the TV. In the kitchen, the hostess went into the kitchen to cook, while the old man was leaning on the sofa closest to the balcony with his eyes closed and meditative. There was a semiconductor at hand, playing an opera from somewhere.
The little boy, who was seven or eight years old, was running back and forth with a toy car in his hand, amusing himself and having a great time.
Chen Nuo glanced at the balcony. There were five or six pieces of clothes for adults and children hanging on the hangers.
Clerk Liu pulled the little girl in front of him, helped her stretch out the sweater she was wearing, and then asked her some household questions in a low voice. The child spoke very little, but was very well-behaved and did not make trouble. She answered in a low voice.
It's all simple.
The male host laughed: "The child is a little shy and doesn't talk much. But we have raised him well. Look at this sweater. I just bought it before the Chinese New Year."
Chen Nuo narrowed his eyes, picked up a banana from the table, peeled it open, and gestured to the little girl: "Do you want to eat it?"
The little girl was obviously attracted and looked at the banana in Chen Nuo's hand.
The male host smiled and said: "Your brother peeled this for you, eat it."
The little girl took it, looked at Chen Nuo and Clerk Liu, and took a big bite.
Chen Nuo smiled, tore open the Want Want gift bag he brought, took a piece of Want Want senbei and teased the little girl.
The little boy didn't know when he ran out of the back room. He saw it and shouted "Wangwang senbei! I want to eat it!" He went up and grabbed it.
Girls are a little timid.
The male host shook his head and said with a smile: "You are a kid, the two of you are used to fighting."
Chen Nuo didn't say anything, but took another piece, tore it open and handed it to the little girl. After the girl took it, she had a banana in her left hand and a senbei in her right hand. She seemed a little at a loss for a moment, as if she didn't know which one to eat first.
Lunch was eaten at Gu's house. But it was obvious that the host mainly left Liu, the clerk, to eat.
The host wanted to pour the wine, but Chen Nuo still refused to drink. The host poured the wine himself, and did not forget to give a toast to Waiter Liu during the meal.
The little girl ate in a small bowl filled with chicken legs and braised pork ribs. The food was very sweet and she was very well-behaved. However, the male owner's own seven or eight-year-old son was very noisy and seemed to have something under his buttocks while eating.
Nail, I took two or three bites of a chicken leg and refused to eat it. I threw it in the bowl, took a few mouthfuls of rice, and went to the living room to watch cartoons.
This comparison makes it even more obvious that the five-year-old girl is sensible, well-behaved, and cute no matter how cute she looks.
In fact, Chen Nuo didn't have much communication with this little girl from beginning to end. He just had a pair of eyes that had been narrowed since he came to the dinner table.
After the meal, they said goodbye and left the Gu family.
"The child is doing well. You can see it, so you can rest assured." Clerk Liu sighed: "Your sister is really pitiful. She is so young, and something like this happened to her parents. But fortunately, the child is now
He is doing well. Chen Nuo, don’t worry, our neighborhood and the Women’s Federation will definitely follow up on the child’s life.”
Chen Nuo thanked Clerk Liu politely, and then sent Clerk Liu away on an electric bike.
He stood at the door of the community, squinting his eyes before finally opening them.
Chen Nuo's face looked a little cold.
This clerk Liu is enthusiastic, but obviously she is not old enough and has insufficient experience. There are many things that she may not be able to see.
Based on Chen Nuo's observation, the life of this little girl, his "sister" in this life, may not be very good.
It's nothing for children to fight and grab snacks, and people dote on their own sons more. This kind of thing is normal. It happens to any other family. It's not strange, and it can't be said too much.
But when the little girl later ate bananas and Want Want senbei, she felt so greedy that Chen Nuo felt something was wrong.
Also during lunch, the child saw that there were chicken legs and meat in the bowl, and he ate well.
A bowl of rice was eaten cleanly, and no vegetables were wasted. It was all eaten.
How many five-year-old children are so good at eating?
What does the Gu family's seven or eight-year-old son look like when eating? He is picky and naughty. He took two bites of a piece of chicken leg and threw it away...
This is how most children of this age eat normally!
But as for the girl, she chewed through a chicken leg and several pieces of braised pork ribs. There was no trace of meat left with her teeth, and even the bones were chewed cleanly.
What does this mean?
It means that she may not have to eat on weekdays!
There is also a change of clothes hanging on the balcony.
Chen Nuo took a closer look as soon as he entered the door. There were both adults and children, but only...
Only one without a little girl!
The sweater the girl was wearing was a new one. It looked quite clean. But Chen Nuo took a closer look and found that the elbows had been smoothed, and the style didn't look like it came from the girl's family. It was probably the family's own son.
Wear leftover old clothes.
"The subsidy of more than 200 yuan a month is very satisfying." Chen Nuo sneered.
After thinking for a while, Chen Nuo turned around and returned to the sixth floor. Chen Nuo knocked on the door.
The door opened, and the hostess opened it. When she saw it was Chen Nuo, her eyes were a little impatient at first, but she held it back.
"Hey, classmate Chen Nuo, why are you back again?"
Chen Nuo smiled: "I can't find my bicycle key. I wonder if I dropped it on the sofa."
The hostess frowned and reluctantly opened the door: "You can see for yourself, there shouldn't be one. I just cleaned up the sofa and didn't see it."
The male host was also a little surprised, but probably because of the two cigarettes and two bottles of wine, he didn't say anything. He said hello to Chen Nuo lightly and went into the room.
The old lady is still leaning on the sofa and listening to Semiconductor.
Chen Nuo entered the door and saw the little girl squatting in the corner. The son of the family, a seven or eight-year-old boy, was waving a toy sword around. The little girl was obviously a little scared and squatted there covering her hands.
He was holding his head. The boy was screaming something ghostly. He was probably imitating the plot in the TV series and wanted to fight monsters or something.
The hostess shouted casually: "Stop making trouble." The boy screamed a few more times before turning around and running to pick up the remote control and keep changing channels.
"Did you find the key?" The hostess looked at Chen Nuo coldly.
Chen Nuo touched randomly on the sofa, then touched his pocket and said with a smile: "I made a mistake, the key is still there."
As he spoke, he glanced at the little girl squatting on the ground, walked over, and gently touched her head.
The girl was obviously a little timid, but she didn't dodge, she just held the corners of her clothes with both hands.
"Auntie." Chen Nuo said in a very polite tone: "Can I take my sister downstairs to play? I want to stay with her for a while."
"Downstairs?" The hostess was obviously not happy, and her eyes turned cold: "It's so cold, if you take me out to play, if you get cold and get sick, who's to blame?"
Chen Nuo smiled: "I will pay attention to it. Wear thicker clothes. I won't run far away. I will take her around downstairs. After all, she is my sister. I will take her to buy some snacks and so on."
"I don't think it's necessary." The hostess refused clearly: "There is no such rule. Besides, Xiao Chen, she has no legal relationship with you. She is also a member of the old Gu family. After all, you are an outsider, so you can come to your door.
Our child was taken away, if something goes wrong, whose fault is it?"
After saying that, the hostess called out: "Lao Gu, come out!"
The male host came out of the room with a frown and looked at Chen Nuo with a frown.
"He wants to take the child out." The hostess put her hands on her hips and said, "You see what we should do."
"That's definitely not possible." The male host's face also turned cold: "What? Xiao Chen, are you worried? Are you afraid that we will abuse the children? Want to ask alone? OK, OK!"
As he said that, the male host walked over, pulled the little girl up from the ground with one hand, and pushed it in front of Chen Nuo: "Come on, come on! Talk to your brother with a foreign surname! Have we abused you? Girl, say
!What grievances and grievances there are? It’s not in front of your brother. Come on, tell me!”
The girl was obviously very scared. She pursed her lips and looked at Chen Nuo without saying a word.
"No, right! No, right! Xiao Chen! You are so young, where did you get so many crooked ideas! Looking for the key? I think you just deliberately came back to kill me, right? We raise your sister and provide her with food and drink.
Did she even confess her revenge?"
The hostess put her hands on her hips and scolded him.
Chen Nuo looked at the frightened little girl, took a deep breath, looked at the host and hostess of the house, and said with a smile: "Uncle and aunt, you two really misunderstood. I don't have so many ideas. It's really just that we met today."
I have a sister, so I just thought, as an elder brother, I haven’t been able to take care of her in all these years, so I just want to be close to her. It’s really pointless.”
"Okay, I want to be close to your sister. Isn't it enough to have such a big place at home? Take her out, no!" The male host waved his hand directly.
"Okay, forget it." Chen Nuo nodded politely: "Let's talk about it later. I'm sorry for disturbing you today."
With that said, Chen Nuo turned around and left.
·
In fact, she felt a little suffocated in her heart, but Chen Nuo actually didn't know how to deal with this matter.
I have lived for decades in my last life and this life, and I have been through bullets and bullets, but I have never dealt with such short-lived matters.
A biological sister?
He stood at the gate of the community, took out a cigarette and lit another one.
Take a break, puff after puff, and finish smoking the cigarette.
My mind suddenly thought of the tombstone in the cemetery yesterday, and the woman in the prison visiting room whose eyes were red from crying.
Chen Nuo looked back at the building, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out.
Even if... I take your life, I'll still do something for your family.
Chen Nuo turned around and went back upstairs!
When I returned to the door on the sixth floor, I heard muffled crying coming from inside.
Chen Nuo's eyes turned cold. Before he could knock on the door, the door opened. The man was about to come out with a bag of garbage when he bumped into Chen Nuo and was stunned for a moment.
Following the crack in the door, Chen Nuo saw the scene in the living room, and instantly a rush of blood rushed to his forehead.
The five-year-old girl stood in the corner, covering her mouth with both hands.
And the hostess named Fang was holding a bamboo stick in her hand and whipping the child on the thigh!
"Don't cry out. Cover your mouth tightly!" The hostess yelled while squeezing, "What a loser! Cover your mouth tightly and don't cry out!!"
The little girl covered her mouth tightly and trembled into a ball. Although the pain was severe, she seemed to be biting her little hand out of fear of the hostess. She really didn't dare to let herself cry too loudly.
.
The hostess was twitching, but the old lady sitting on the sofa just squinted her eyes and listened to the semiconductor, as if she turned a blind eye.
The male host's eyes were panicked, and he pushed Chen Nuo, "Why are you here again!"
When the hostess inside heard the sound, she turned around, holding a stick and looking at her man and Chen Nuo at the door, and she was also stunned.
There was a trace of anger in Chen Nuo's eyes.
"Is this what you did to my sister?"
As he said that, he kicked him out, directly on the male host's ankle.
With a scream, the male host sat on the ground on the spot.
The hostess also threw away the stick and was stunned for a second. She was about to rush over like a fool. Chen Nuo pushed her away. He directly grabbed the male host's legs and dragged her into the house. He closed the door of the house with his backhand and carried the hostess.
The male host dragged his ankle and ran to the balcony!
The old lady on the sofa jumped up excitedly and rushed over to beat Chen Nuo: "Let go of my son! Let go! Let go!!"
Chen Nuo looked down at the old woman with cold eyes, and let her floppy fists hit him: "Oh, it turns out he's not dead! When your wife beat your granddaughter, you were able to sit still and listen to the show? A five-year-old?
Child! Are you just looking at me like this?"
The old woman stared at Chen Nuo with vicious eyes: "The older one is a pest, and the younger one is also a pest! If the older one marries my son and gives birth to the younger one, my son will go to jail! Your whole family is a pest.
Human spirit!"
"Oh, I understand." Chen Nuo sneered and said word by word: "It turns out that he is just an old and disgusting thing."
Chen Nuo ignored her, opened the balcony window, picked up the male host's legs and threw him out!
He didn't let go, just hanging outside the window.
"Don't shout. If you dare to shout, I will let go."
The male host's pig-like cry lasted only half a note and then stopped.
Chen Nuo looked back at the hostess and old lady who were about to rush up, and smiled: "Don't come over, come over, and I will let go."
The old lady seemed to be going forward, but the hostess finally came to her senses, came up and pulled the old lady away: "Mom!!! Don't provoke him!!!!"
"Chen, Xiao Chen, you, please let my man down!!! If you have something to say, say it well, say it well..." The hostess trembled.
Chen Nuo smiled: "Oh, I can finally speak human language."
