Chapter 143 The Hidden Truth
Mingdai looked at Mayor Wei, who was smiling as he helped Zhou Sinian lie down, and swallowed.
What's going on? ! !
Wei Yan put Zhou Sinian down, covered him with a quilt, quietly got out of bed, and called Mingdai to follow.
Ming Dai looked at Zhou Sinian who was "sleeping" soundly on the bed, then looked at Mayor Wei who was waving at her warmly, thought for a moment, and followed him.
The two of them carefully avoided the window and stood in the corner.
Wei Yan looked outside through the window and was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual.
Mingdai stood obediently at the foot of the wall, which made Wei Yan laugh.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Ming, did I scare you? There are some things that Si Nian can't hear. I can only ask you for help."
After hearing this, Mingdai breathed a sigh of relief and quietly put away the gold needles between her fingers.
Wei Yan obviously noticed her actions and admired her cleverness.
"Xiao Ming, the educated youth, it's almost dawn. Let me make it short. I just lied to Si Nian about a few things."
Mingdai was surprised by his tone. Is it so serious?
"Gu Mingyi, who saved Si Nian, is not only his team leader, but also his master. He is the one who brought him up from childhood. It can be said that he played the role of a father in Si Nian's life. Si Nian respects him very much.
They had a very good relationship. After the mission was over, Lao Gu was going to retire from the front line to rest, and Si Nian even said that he would provide for him in his old age.
But in the end he sacrificed himself to save Si Nian. I'm afraid Si Nian won't be able to bear it after knowing this."
Ming Dai was frightened for a moment: "So that's how it is. No wonder Zhou Sinian reacted so strongly. It gives me a headache just by mentioning it. He is now even afraid of kittens."
Wei Yan clenched his fists: "I suspect that the Zhou family is responsible for the current state of Si Nian. When Si Nian was born, he was healthy, but when he grew up, he was found to be impulsive and irritable, and could easily hurt others.
Si Nian's mother was very busy at work and seldom had time to take care of him herself. By the time she realized that something was wrong with her child, it was already too late.
The doctor suspected that it was a congenital mental illness, but Jingyi didn't believe it and took her child to many places for treatment.
I was still in Heilongjiang at the time and could only help find a doctor but couldn't go there myself.
Later one day, Jingyi brought Si Nian to me and asked me to help recommend Si Nian to the base to participate in the special talent selection.
I don't know how she knew about this base, but I also advised her that once Si Nian got involved, they would have very few opportunities to see each other.
But Jingyi insisted. Now that I think about it, she must have noticed something was wrong with the Zhou family, so she wanted to send Si Nian out."
Ming Dai was puzzled: "Why not send Si Nian to the Bai family? It's normal for a grandfather to take care of his grandson, right?"
Wei Yan sighed: "This is the second thing I have hidden from Si Nian. His grandfather's problem was very serious at the time. The whole family was under quarantine and investigation. Jingyi's marriage was affected, and there was no way to arrange for Si Nian to continue living in the Bai family.
I was the only person she could trust at the time, but I was always on the front line and couldn't take care of a child. She only thought of sending the child to the base when she had no other choice."
Ming Dai looked at Wei Yan and asked carefully, "Did something happen to her?"
Wei Yan looked at her steadily: "You are really smart, Jingyi did not die of illness, she committed suicide.
The Bai family's ancestors were very wealthy. During the Anti-Japanese War, my adoptive father donated most of his family fortune to support the revolution.
Later, Si Nian's grandfather Zhou Xuehai was nearly killed in a bombing. It was his adoptive father who bought penicillin at a high price and saved him.
In order to repay their adoptive father for saving their lives, the Zhou family began to protect the Bai family during the war.
Gradually, the two families became familiar with each other.
Later, in order to consolidate the relationship between the two families, Zhou Xuehai proposed to Jingyi.
My godfather, who only knew how to paint in his life, was a very open-minded and romantic person. He did not agree blindly, but asked Jingyi for her opinion and arranged a meeting between the two.
Wei Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Zhou Chongming is a very good pretender. He is quiet and simple-minded. He only cares about her studies and research. In addition, there was war at the time, so marrying into the Zhou family would benefit both parties, so she agreed.
From then on, the Zhou and Bai families became relatives and supported each other.
My adoptive father even bought food and medicine to support the Zhou family’s troops many times, and helped them step by step to the side of the great leader.”
Wei Yan became more and more excited as he spoke: "But who could have imagined that the Zhou family would be so despicable later on!
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Bai family was reported to have improper overseas relations. In order to protect themselves, no one from the Zhou family stood up to prove the facts for the Bai family.
The Bai family's contacts with overseas countries during special periods were clearly for the purpose of purchasing medicines to support the revolution. The Zhou family benefited greatly from this and knew it clearly!
As long as the Zhou family came out to testify, my godfather would have no problem, but the Zhou family chose to remain silent! "
Wei Yan calmed down and continued his story.
"This crime is too serious. Seeing that her adoptive father might really be shot, Jingyi went to ask Zhou Chongming, Si Nian's biological father, for help. However, Zhou Chongming fled the capital directly, and Zhou Xuehai refused to see her."
Wei Yan took a deep breath and said, "In order to save her adoptive father, Jingyi shot herself in front of the military compound. This forced Zhou Xuehai to come forward to testify for the Bai family!"
Mingdai never expected that Si Nian's mother left in such a tragic way.
Wei Yan's dry voice rang out: "In the end, the Bai family still ended up being demoted.
When the adoptive father learned about his daughter's suicide, he thought that he was the one who harmed Jingyi and became half crazy and half stupid.
Uncle Si Nian also had a conflict with someone because of his sister's death, had his leg broken, and was demoted along with his adoptive father.
When I rushed to the capital, I only had time to help them run the operation and transfer it to Heilongjiang Province.
At that time, Si Nian was still in training at the base, and no one dared to tell him.
Later, I lied to him that his parents were divorced, his mother and uncle were participating in a closed project, and his grandfather and uncle were studying outside.
Si Nian resented his mother for this for a long time."
"Afterwards, I didn't dare to let him return to the capital, and I also warned the Zhou family not to look for Si Nian.
The Zhou family felt that they had not been wronged for so many years.
If Si Nian hadn't been seriously injured, I wouldn't have taken him back to the capital!"
Ming Dai boldly guessed: "Did someone tell him about Si Nian's mother?"
Wei Yan nodded helplessly: "When questioning, someone suddenly mentioned this matter, and Si Nian completely lost control.
There was another reason why I took him to the countryside. He sneaked out of the hospital, broke into Zhou's house, and almost killed Zhou Chongming."
He paused. "Not long after Jingyi died, Zhou Chongming remarried. The woman brought a boy with her. It is said that he looked very much like Zhou Chongming, and was two years older than Sinian."
Mingdai took a breath of cool air.
Wei Yan shook his head helplessly: "Although I also want to kill the Zhou family, I can't use Si Nian's life to fill it. In addition, too many people came to cause trouble, so I had no choice but to arrange Si Nian to live in Hongqi Commune.
I just didn’t expect something like this could happen. Those people are really crazy!”
Ming Dai was puzzled: "Who are they? Why are they targeting Zhou Sinian?"
"I have never found out who it is, it is hidden too deeply.
The reason might be because of the information that was hidden by Si Nian.
They wanted to see if Si Nian would remember where the file was and retrieve it, which is why they didn’t let me get close to Si Nian.”
Ming Dai suddenly realized: "Zhou Sinian said that he could feel someone was watching him in every village."
Wei Yan nodded and sneered: "They dare to monitor me because they rely on my position and dare not take action easily. Si Nian doesn't care about these. You tell him to beat up those he doesn't like. On the surface, no one in Heilongjiang Province dares to offend me!
You don't have to be afraid. There is nothing wrong with your background check. With me here, they dare not attack ordinary people."
Ming Dai looked at him with starry eyes, golden thigh, she had to hug it!
Wei Yan looked at Ming Dai embarrassedly: "But the secrets are too mixed. My people and I have been looking for three years and we only know that there are three groups of people watching the movements in Heilongjiang Province. We haven't found out who they are. So, I can't take Si Nian back yet. I have to trouble you to continue to take care of him."
Ming Dai waved her hands: "It's okay, we get along well."
Wei Yan smiled and nodded, turned around, fiddled around in the corner, took out a box, opened it, took out something and handed it to Ming Dai.
Mingdai took it out of habit, took a look at it, and almost threw it away!
"Uncle Wei! Why did you give me this?"
Wei Yan passed the box over and said, "Keep it for Si Nian. If anything unexpected happens, you can protect yourselves. Don't let him play with it normally."
Ming Dai touched the hot potato in her hand and screamed silently: Can this be given away casually? ! !
There was already some light outside the window, and the sound of people walking around.
Wei Yan looked at the person who was still "soundly sleeping" on the bed and said, "You guys wait here until 9 o'clock before going out. Be careful not to be seen by others.
I won't say goodbye to him this year, I'll tell him that my uncle is very happy to see him."
After saying this, Mayor Wei quickly changed his clothes and walked to the door.
When he was about to leave, he remembered something and turned back to say something to Mingdai.
"You can go to Grandpa Si Nian and Uncle Si Nian's place if you want. The people who were following them have been dealt with by Uncle Si Nian. It's safe, right..."
After saying that, he actually laughed: "Uncle Si Nian has a bit of a weird personality, and often does things unconventionally. When the time comes, please keep an eye on them and don't let them fight."
Then, Mayor Wei opened the door and left, leaving Mingdai holding the box with a confused look on her face.
