Chapter 30 Saving Mother (2)
Liang Xinxin picked up the photo from 20 years ago and held her breath.
Her vision quickly became blurred.
It was like walking into a mist.
She vaguely saw a figure sitting in the office busy.
The surroundings were very quiet. Occasionally someone passed by, stopped at the window, and called Director Li.
The man politely raised his head, said hello, lowered his head, and continued to process documents.
This person is not dead yet!
For a person who is not dead, if you want to see the cause and effect of his life in the world, you need more information, preferably personal belongings.
So Liang Xinxin could not see the situation outside her mother's yard.
Liang Xinxin looked blankly and asked, "What's your son's name?"
"Miao Zhengxiong." The woman looked at Liang Xinxin helplessly.
Miao Zhengxiong? Liang Xinxin was shocked.
This woman is actually Miao Zhengxiong's mother?
No, she can't show it.
She suppressed her impulse and frowned: "Say it again, what's his name?"
"Miao Zhengxiong." The woman was so anxious that she didn't notice the change in Liang Xinxin's face.
Liang Xinxin grabbed the woman's hand: "It's easy for you to see dead people, but your son is still alive. I need his personal belongings to see clearly. Go back now and bring me his used things!"
"It's been more than ten years, and there is nothing of his in the house." The woman was very embarrassed.
Liang Xinxin didn't care and said seriously: "Even if it's clothes he used to wear, the pillow he slept on, or the homework book when he was in school, it's all fine. Unwashed, with his smell. Hurry up."
The woman thought her son had encountered some trouble and hurried back to find a solution.
Finally, she found several report cards from her childhood in a box under the bed.
When she rushed to Temple Street, Liang Xinxin's face was no longer abnormal.
The woman was anxious and only wanted to find her son. She didn't notice Liang Xinxin's change at all and quickly handed the report card to Liang Xinxin.
Now Liang Xinxin saw it clearly.
The man's office was a single-story brick and tile house surrounded by three sides: east, west, and north.
There was only a courtyard wall on the south side, but no house.
The courtyard wall was painted with lime inside and outside, and it was written on the wall:
The old society turned people into ghosts, and the new society turned ghosts into people!
Surpass Britain in three years, and catch up with the United States in five years!
Coke can be smelted without coal, and iron can be smelted without coke!
The bolder the people, the more productive the land!
Obviously, this man is still in the mainland.
Under the wall in the corner of the yard, there was a pile of unmelted ice and snow.
Outside the yard wall, across the road was an icy river.
There were children skating on the river, and judging from their accents, this was in the northeast.
Liang Xinxin's level was really not high enough. She could only see here to see the current situation of living people. She wanted to zoom out and judge the specific location, but it was no longer possible.
She retracted her gaze and focused on the office.
The originally blurry figure has become clear.
It is the man in the photo.
The difference is that the man in the photo is wearing obvious tropical clothes, an old man's shirt, oversized trousers, and a pair of flip-flops. The man
in the office is wearing a navy blue gabardine Zhongshan suit and a military green liberation cap.
On the enamel teacup in front of her was printed the portrait of the great man and five handwritten Chinese characters: Serve the People.
Liang Xinxin wanted to walk closer to see what was written on the document in his hand, preferably with a place name or something.
But no, seeing these was already her limit.
Karma is turning, it is easy to see the dead, but difficult to see the living.
This is to prevent her from using this ability to interfere in other people's lives at will.
Chu Weizheng explained this to her.
And the wooden board in front of her was also clearly written: Looking for past lives, present lives and future lives, repaying kindness and making up for debts, and horizontally written: Fulfilling vows for relatives. Obviously
, this relative refers to the deceased.
The karma of these people in this life has already taken shape, and she will not be easily influenced.
She opened her eyes and returned the photo to the woman: "He is still alive, in the Northeast, and is an official. The specific address is unknown. You can think of a way yourself."
"Really!" The woman was already very surprised. Her son was still alive, which was better than anything else.
Liang Xinxin glanced at Chu Weizheng.
Chu Weizheng understood, so he took the woman to talk to the side: "In a few days, there may be a foreign trade order from the mainland. If you are willing, I think I can arrange for you to board the ship. You can go ashore in Tianjin and find a way to go to the Northeast to find your son."
"But...but the Northeast is so big..." The woman hesitated.
Chu Weizheng already had a plan and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'll ask someone to accompany you. I also need to find someone."
If the mother-in-law is really in Miao Zhengxiong's hands, his people can just take this woman as a hostage to force Miao Zhengxiong to release her.
He is not a good man.
He just didn't want the woman to notice his intention, so he smiled and acted very friendly.
The woman breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome." Chu Weizheng handed her a pen and paper, "Your home address."
In fact, he had already asked someone to investigate, and the previous address of Miao Zhengxiong's home had long been replaced by a new resident.
The same was true for Ma Fulong's home.
Unexpectedly, Miao Zhengxiong's mother would come to the door on her own.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it must be seized.
The woman didn't know that her son had offended Chu Weizheng, and thought she had met a kind person. She was very grateful. After writing down the address, she looked at him eagerly: "How long will it take? I'm not sure how long my man can hold on."
"Soon, in a few days, I'll ask someone to pick you up." Chu Weizheng nodded to Agui and asked him to go with him to verify the address.
Then he returned to Liang Xinxin.
She looked very calm, but he knew that her heart must be turbulent.
The mother who had been waiting for eighteen years might have news.
How could she not be excited. She
just didn't want others to see it.
So he made an excuse: "Wife, I have a stomachache, go home, and come back tomorrow."
Liang Xinxin packed up and got up to leave.
When she got in the car, she could finally vent her emotions. She leaned on Chu Weizheng's shoulder, and her vulnerability spread silently. Back
home, Chu Weizheng didn't bother her. He went to the study and called Lao Xiao to arrange the next move.

Liang Xinxin held her parents' wedding photo in her hand and tried to find her mother again.
Her eyes focused on the photo and she was in a trance for a moment, as if a camera was pushed in front of her.
It was still the small yard from last time, but she still couldn't see the surrounding environment.
Her mother was lying in the yard basking in the sun, covered with an army green coat.
There were no traces of wind and frost on her pale and haggard face.
She looked like a young woman in her thirties, but she was in a bad mood and her face was transparent.
On the roof behind her, a whole row of icicles hung down.
Further down, there was piled up snow.
Even with the sun shining, there was no sign of melting.
In this season, there can be such thick snow, except in the northwest and the northeast. Liang Xinxin hoped that she
was not working in the wrong direction. Mom must have been taken away and hidden by Ma Fulong and Miao Zhengxiong. Why did they do this? Do they love Mom? Or do they want to keep Mom and come back to compete with the Liang family for the family property in the future? What is Mom's attitude towards them? Are they Mom's benefactors or enemies? Did Mom have children with them? She knew nothing. No matter which case it was, she had to upgrade quickly and find the exact location. Even if Mom had other children, she didn't want to see Mom fall into the hands of those who wanted to kill her. There were footsteps behind her. She put down the photo and held the hands on her shoulders: "I saw that there was snow in mom's yard. She is very likely with Miao Zhengxiong." "Well, I have arranged the Canton Fair in half a month. Someone will take Miao Zhengxiong's mom on board and go to the northeast to find them." Chu Weizheng held her shoulders tightly, "Don't worry, you still have me." Liang Xinxin rubbed the back of his hand: "Well, Zheng, is it okay? Without a letter of introduction, will they be unable to move forward?" "No, Lao Xiao has arranged someone to help. They will go ashore with the business representatives. The introduction letter is ready, saying that they will go to Northeast China to inspect agricultural and sideline products. There is a small export quota in this area every year in the country, and Northeast China is a granary, which is just right." Chu Weizheng thought of all the ways he could think of. Liang Xinxin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "That's great, thank you, Zheng. I'm so tired today, I don't know why, observing the cause and effect of living people is very energy-consuming. I want to sleep for a while." But it's only two o'clock in the afternoon, a little early. Chu Weizheng squatted in front of her, held her hand, lowered his eyes and kissed her: "Xinxin, this is your own home, you can sleep whenever you want, your parents never set any messy rules, it's very free. Do you want me to accompany you?" "Okay." Liang Xinxin did not refuse. They were newlyweds and he was still on vacation, so kissing and hugging, everything was normal. She drew the curtains, took a shower and lay down. But Chu Weizheng knew that she was in a bad mood, so he just hugged her and slept peacefully. Neither of them had dinner and slept until midnight. Chu Weizheng went downstairs to find something to eat. They sat in front of the window and chatted facing the bright moon. Chu Xiangfeng knocked on the door: "I heard that you found Miao Zhengxiong's mother?" Chu Weizheng turned around and said nothing. Chu Xiangfeng got up to drink water, and heard the noise and came over to take a look. He leaned against the door in a ruffian manner, with a cigarette in his mouth, but he didn't light it. He suggested: "There are Taoist temples and Buddhist temples next to the office. There are many people who burn incense and pray during the day. Let sister-in-law go there to help fulfill their wishes, and she should be promoted quickly." "No, it will take away the business of the office. Your brother and others still rely on the money from incense to pay their salaries." Liang Xinxin couldn't do that. Destroying someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. No way. No matter how anxious she is, she can't lose her principles. Chu Xiangfeng was really convinced. This woman was simply unreasonable. He was very curious: "Is your mother more important, or is the salary of the office more important?" "Both are important." Liang Xinxin refused, "I will find a way myself, instead of cutting off the financial resources of the office." "Whatever, but I warn you, Miao Zhengxiong will kill without blinking an eye, so be prepared for the worst." Chu Xiangfeng said and left. He just avoided the glare Liang Xinxin threw at him. Liang Xinxin lost her appetite after being interrupted by him, and put down her fork: "He is so annoying." But she also knew that such a reminder should be well-intentioned. So her anger disappeared quickly. Bored in the second half of the night, she and Chu Weizheng simply became each other's language teachers. You speak Cantonese, I speak Mandarin. Solve the communication barriers first. Soon, Chu Weizheng's wedding leave ended, and he had to go back to work. He was worried about Liang Xinxin going to set up a stall and fulfill her vows alone during the day, so he asked Ah Gui and Chu Lingyue to follow her. When the Canton Fair was about to end, Liang Xinxin's rank was finally upgraded. She saw the documents in Miao Zhengxiong's hand clearly.
The one above raised his head: It's the Raohe County Revolutionary Committee.
That makes things much easier!
It's a small border town along the Wusuli River, and the Soviet Union is on the other side.
Liang Xinxin hurriedly told Chu Weizhen the good news.
Chu Weizhen didn't delay, and immediately asked Abang for a few reliable people, went through special channels to complete the formalities, and took Miao Zhengxiong's mother on board.
On the day of departure, Liang Xinxin woke up early in the morning.
She really wanted to go with them, but Chu Weizhen wouldn't let her.
First, the environment in the mainland is complicated, and second, the northeast has not fully warmed up yet, and he was afraid that her body couldn't handle it.
Liang Xinxin could only stand at the Victoria Harbour Pier and watch the cargo ship leave.
Chu Weizheng stood beside her and gently held her in his arms: "Don't be afraid, there will be good news, for sure."
