"The reason why I was born and raised is because... I lost my father when I was born,"
The man looked over and sneered, "She's not dead, she ran away with her whole family."
"Ran to the port city,"
The man smiled faintly: "With his whole family, haha, my mother and I are not among his whole family."
"At that time, I was just born, so these details were told to me by my mother later. As far as I can remember, she told me these things, saying how difficult it was for her and that she could not follow her husband because of him."
"She kept nagging me, asking me to take her with me to find that man when I grow up."
Fu Xiao frowned slightly and said, "So, you...you want to take her to find that guy?"
"Haha," the man laughed softly, "She died a long time ago,"
"The grass on the grave has grown one meter high,"
Hearing that he had no respect for his mother, Fu Xiao frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Do you hate her?"
The man's eyes were filled with sarcasm: "Logically, she is the one who gave birth to me, I shouldn't say this to her, but she has not been very good to me, and she has always been dreaming."
"Before he left, the man told her that I was too young and would make a fuss, and he was afraid something might happen on the way, so he couldn't take her with him. He asked her to take good care of me, and he would send someone to pick me up after he had settled down."
"Such an outrageous lie, and she actually believed it,"
He smiled and said, "So I had to endure her complaints at a young age."
"People in the village knew that our family had gone to Hong Kong. Although they had rural household registration and had severed their relationship with us, they still didn't treat us well,"
"Earning the most work points, but given the least food, or even no food at all,"
Mu Lianshen and others beside him listened to his words without any change on their faces. People in those years all went through this.
Every family that has contact with the outside world doesn't have a good life.
"The woman gradually began to believe what others said, that the man would never come back, and she hated me more and more. She often beat and scolded me and never gave me food."
"She didn't care about me, so I had to find ways to survive. I used Guanyin soil, tree bark, and even snatched food from dogs," the man's voice became softer and softer. "At that time, I was only four or five years old."
"We can survive because of the old people,"
At this point, his eyes changed and became bright. "Those old people who were sent down to the countryside gave me something to eat despite their own difficult circumstances. Although it was little and the steamed buns were hard, I survived."
"That woman died when I was seven years old. I didn't feel anything. I just dragged her to the mountain and buried her. That was my apology."
"I don't want to listen to what the woman says and go find that man,"
Anyone can see that he abandoned them. It's hard to find a person like that.
Fu Xiao asked: "Then why do you want to go to Hong Kong City?"
"I went to Hong Kong to fulfill an old man's dream," the man said slowly, "Even if I don't tell you, you should be able to guess how hard it was for us to survive."
"Endless criticism and struggle sessions have brought them endless humiliation," the man sighed sadly, "but they still protect me."
"After all, I was not one of the people sent down to the countryside, so I did not experience the struggle session."
"Those people just tampered with the food distribution. In order to survive, I often went to the mountains to find some prey."
Wu Chengfeng asked calmly: "What are your skills?"
"There are troops stationed in the mountains," the man said bluntly, "I know that if I want to survive, I must be able to fight, or be able to be beaten."
"After I found the garrison, I kept watching them train secretly. Although I was discovered before, they didn't care much. Some even gave me some pointers when they were interested."
"The soldiers were very nice. They saw that I was skinny and knew that I didn't have enough food, so they occasionally gave me some food."
“Heh,” the man chuckled, “Maybe it’s because of that energy. I learn boxing from this guy, and fighting from that guy. As time goes by, my skills get better and better.”
"I got used to being beaten so many times, and slowly I stopped being afraid of the pain."
"Someone in the army asked me to join the army, but I can't leave. If I leave, those old men won't live long. They raised me when I was young, and I have to take care of them when they grow old."
He raised his eyes to look at Mu Lianshen and said, "I don't know what the steps you mentioned are. I learned them from one of the old men, but he can't be a ghost soldier."
Mu Lianshen said calmly: "I will send someone to check."
"I won't go into details about the other things," the man smiled. They were all experiences of his hard survival. Those days were too hard, and he didn't want to mention them again.
"Those old people are all gone. I want to go to Hong Kong because I don't know where the son of one of them is now. His last wish is to see his son and grandson. I just want to go there, find them, at least take a photo and burn it for him."
"By the way, let's take a look at what my father looks like now."
Of course, I also have a desire for revenge, but it's hard to say it out loud.
After hearing what he said, Mu Lianshen's expression remained calm. "I'll have someone check it out. If it's all true, we can talk about other things later."
When the man was taken away, his eyes were always on Fu Xiao.
But she didn't give any response at this moment. After all, she had to find out the truth.
But Fu Xiao felt that what he said must be true.
After he was taken away, Mu Lianshen looked at Wu Chengfeng and said, "Go check. The people he mentioned should be the first batch of people sent there."
