The captain and his wife hurried back home, closed the door as soon as they entered, and walked towards the west room where Chen Liang lived.
Fortunately, after the family split up, the second son moved out and built a house to live in alone, so no one noticed that Chen Liang stayed at home for so long.
When the two entered the room, Chen Liang was half leaning against the wall, holding a photo he took with Song Jin on their first date.
Later, he went to get the photos. Fortunately, he went to get them, so they could be kept, so that he would not be without any photos when he missed her.
The two had just gotten together at that time, and they took the photo while standing together properly, but the smile on Ajin's face was very sweet.
In the solo photo, Ajin restrained his smile and it looked more like an ID photo.
He has been relying on these photos to make a living recently.
The captain and his wife sighed, but Aunt Chen couldn't hold her temper anymore and spoke first.
"San'er, do you know Li Guaizi?"
Chen Liang was stunned for a moment, his lifeless eyes gradually returned to normal, staring at Aunt Chen: "Li Guaizi? I don't know him."
The captain and his wife looked at each other and said, "That's not right. Think about it again. The postman just delivered a remittance slip. Take a look. The sender is called Li Guaizi, and the money is from Ning City. The payee is written in your name. Think again whether you recognize this person."
When Chen Liang heard the name Ningshi, he suddenly thought of Guaizi Village. Li Guaizi? Could it be the name of their village chief?
I took the remittance slip and read it from beginning to end. There was no other information, only the place name and the remitter, the name of the payee, the remittance amount, five hundred, and no extra words.
He was also confused. Five hundred yuan should be the money that the kidnapper village chief had extorted from him, but why would he be so kind as to return it to him? Moreover, how did he know his address?
The captain knew from his expression that he must be hiding something, including what happened to his leg. He still refused to say, only saying that he had been to a big hospital and was confirmed to be disabled.
They were not allowed to go to the county to inquire, let alone tell Song Zhiqing.
This son really made them worry to death at the last moment.
Aunt Chen wiped her tears and hit his arm: "Are you going to make your parents worry to death? Huh? You don't say anything. If you do this again today, I will go to the city to find Ajin and ask her to question you."
Chen Liang's expression changed when he heard A Jin: "Mom, don't go, I tell you..."
"So, this money should have been returned by the village chief of Guaizi Village, but I don't know why he did that. As for Ajin, I wrote her a breakup letter a long time ago. She may not return to the team in the future, so don't look for her. I am sorry for her."
The captain's wife cried even harder: "How could these damned people be so vicious? My son, what are you going to do in the future?"
The captain patted his wife's shoulder, thought for a moment, and said to Chen Liang, "You said the other day that the wound felt itchy. I asked Doctor Fu, and he said that the wound would only itch when it was getting better. Is it possible that your leg has improved now? Be obedient, Dad loves you, and go to the provincial capital for a checkup."
Hearing this, Chen Liang felt a little hopeful. He indeed felt that his legs were not as painful as before, and he could still use some strength.
What if, what if it can be cured?
If he could really be cured, he could go find Ajin. He couldn't bear to be separated from Ajin like this.
The last time Ajin saw him, he must have known that everything in his letter was a lie and that he had not betrayed Ajin.
Ah Jin, you will forgive yourself, right?
Try again, just once.
Seeing that his son finally listened to his advice, the team leader immediately began to pack up and arrange the team's affairs.
Early the next morning, the couple got up early and took Chen Liang on a ox cart to the county town.
The ox cart was driven by the second son, Chen Lin. It was only when his father came to look for him last night that he found out that the third son was at home and that such a big thing had happened.
After all, they were brothers from the same mother, so he agreed without hesitation to drive the ox cart to take them to the county town today.
After arriving at the county town, the team leader told his second son not to say much when he returned, and together with his wife, he helped Chen Liang get on the bus to the provincial capital.
Chen Lin was still a little dazed. He had also heard yesterday that someone had transferred money to Chen Liang. When he heard the number of five hundred, his wife kept muttering that he would have nothing in the house after the money was divided. He felt very uncomfortable.
But after listening to his father's story about the third brother's experience, he realized that the money was extorted from him and that he paid the price of disability. As the second brother, he was the last one to know about it, and he felt very uncomfortable.
In fact, he was overthinking it. After all, he was the only one who knew the inside story besides the captain and his wife.
Everyone else in the team thought that Chen Liang had gone to the south to make a fortune.
The captain and his two companions took a four-hour bus ride and finally arrived in the provincial capital at twelve o'clock.
After getting off the bus, the three of them called a tricycle and had it taken them directly to the entrance of the Provincial People's Hospital. There was a state-owned canteen next to the hospital, so the three of them went there to have lunch first.
Because there was a patient, the couple did not save too much and ordered a braised pork, rice for Chen Liang, three steamed buns made of three-grain flour for themselves, and a plate of vegetables.
When the dishes came, Chen Liang looked at the rice in his bowl, which was soon filled with braised pork.
My parents were eating steamed buns made of three-grain flour and vegetables next to me.
His eyes suddenly felt a little hot. He had never been the pride of his parents since he was a child.
He was very naughty and disobedient, always loved to play, and was unwilling to go to work at home. The reason he went to school and graduated from high school was just to avoid going to work.
After graduation, although he earned some money by occasionally going to the black market, most of it was saved by himself or spent on food and drink, and only a small amount was handed over to his mother.
The mother was already very happy and felt that her son had made great progress.
His parents never had high expectations of him, and he was always used to ignoring his parents' feelings. He always felt that he was a child, and no matter what he did, they would not ignore him.
When he injured his leg this time, he only thought about how he was finished and what he would do with Ajin in the future. He just wanted to escape, but he never thought about how heartbroken his parents would be to see him like this.
He had been indulging in self-destruction lately. He looked up at his parents and saw that his father's hair was almost completely white, and there were more wrinkles on his face than before.
All the flesh on my mother's face has disappeared, her cheekbones are protruding, and there is a dark area under her eyes.
They haven’t had a good night’s sleep recently!
Because of me, so many people are frightened.
Suddenly I thought of the nights a few days ago, when my father got up at night and found out that he would go out in the middle of the night.
After that, every time I went to Ajin's place, I could always hear faint footsteps behind me, and when I came back, I could faintly smell the smell of dry tobacco.
They are worried that they will not be able to get over it. He is too selfish.
Chen Liang started to shed tears while eating, but he wiped them away immediately before his parents noticed.
I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, I have never made you proud, but you have always treated me like a treasure!
