Chapter 440 Do you still remember your name?
Upon hearing that Mrs. Chen would suffer from amnesia after her mental illness was cured, Mrs. Chen's attitude immediately changed, and she began to actively cooperate with the treatment.
Anyone with a modicum of sense could sense that something was amiss with her rapid change in attitude.
The live stream chat was flooded with comments.
[This is absolutely a case of human trafficking! Chen Sanya's mother was definitely trafficked!]
I also think that any normal person would hesitate to think about the possibility of amnesia, but this old woman seems even happier.
My God! If Chen Sanya's mother was really trafficked, how much suffering she must have endured!
[I can't take it anymore, my empathy is too strong, I'm almost dying of sadness now, waaaaaa o(╥﹏╥)o]
[Is Dr. Wen telling the truth? Will the treatment cause amnesia?]
[No! I still want Dr. Wen to cure her so I can ask her if she was really trafficked!]
I think Wen Zhiyu said that on purpose. We can all sense that something's wrong, how could they not?
If this is a case of human trafficking, shouldn't we call the police now?
[What if calling the police now is a misunderstanding?]
[If it were really a case of human trafficking, Nangong Chu and his group probably wouldn't ignore it, even if it's just for appearances on camera.]
I think so too!
[Just keep reading and you'll find out.]
[...]
After Grandma Chen agreed to receive treatment, Wen Zhiyu asked her to leave.
Wen Zhiyu: "Grandma Chen was trying to help Chen Sanya's mother before, and she physically stopped her crazy behavior, which made her somewhat resistant to you, so you have to temporarily stay away from her."
Old Mrs. Chen hesitated upon hearing Wen Zhiyu's words.
But looking at his mentally unstable daughter-in-law, he thought that if his mental illness were cured and she could forget her past, he could then make her work.
Grandma Chen nodded in agreement.
She had just left the main room when Ah Chu came out.
Ah Chu spoke to Old Lady Chen with a sweet smile.
Old Mrs. Chen looked at her; she was young, beautiful, and rich. She wished she could be her second daughter-in-law.
The more she thought about it, the more tempted she became, and Old Mrs. Chen's attitude towards A-Chu improved even more.
When she heard that Achu wanted hot water for her eldest daughter-in-law to bathe and wash her hair, she immediately agreed and went to the kitchen to boil water.
The task of washing hair and taking a bath was left to Chen Erya and Chen Sanya.
Achu followed along.
Of course, the camera wasn't following them.
Without Old Mrs. Chen present, and without Wen Zhiyu, a man, Chen's mother stopped her crazy outbursts and stopped yelling and hitting, and her emotions stabilized.
She just stood there blankly, letting them do whatever they wanted with her.
Chen's mother had clearly not taken a bath in a long time; she was very dirty and even had a rotten smell coming from her lower body.
Achu knew without a doubt that she must have a serious gynecological disease and needed to see a doctor for treatment as soon as possible.
Her hair was too long and tangled badly, so Achu simply asked Chen Sanya to find some scissors and cut it to shoulder length.
She swept her wet hair back, and gradually, Chen's mother's face came into view.
Just like Ah Chu thought, Chen Er Ya and Chen San Ya both looked more like their mother.
Although Chen's mother's eyes were dull, they were very beautiful.
Her individual features weren't particularly delicate, but together they created a rather pretty face.
She was very thin, almost skin and bones, with her spine and shoulder blades protruding abnormally, and her body crisscrossed with new and old injuries.
Ah Chu only just noticed that one of her hands was somewhat twisted.
It's obvious that it was injured and didn't receive treatment, so it grew out of shape.
Looking at her, Achu's face was devoid of any smile, her eyes filled with surging anger.
"Teacher..." Chen Erya called out to A Chu cautiously.
Ah Chu took a breath, composed herself, and turned to look at Chen Er Ya: "What's wrong?"
Chen Erya bit her lip and still asked, "Can Teacher's boyfriend really cure my mother's mental illness?"
Achu nodded: "Of course, my boyfriend is a very good doctor, he can definitely do it."
"Don't you want your mother's mental illness to be cured?"
Chen Erya nodded and then shook her head: "I...I don't know either..."
Achu asked in confusion, "Why don't you know?"
Chen Erya was a few years older than Chen Sanya and knew a little more.
She whispered, "Before Mom went crazy, Dad beat her even worse. I don't want it to be like this..."
Ah Chu frowned slightly and asked again, "When your mother wasn't crazy, did she say anything to you?"
Chen Erya: "Dad and Grandma don't let us talk to Mom too much. If we do, they'll hit Mom."
"I only heard my mother say this when I was very young, that she really wanted to go home..."
Children who grow up in this environment don't know what human trafficking is.
Moreover, Grandma Chen and the others were wary of Grandma Chen and the children saying things they shouldn't.
Ah Chu suppressed his emotions and was about to say something else.
Chen Sanya suddenly asked her again, "Teacher, if Mom's mental illness can be cured, can Gouwa's mother's mental illness also be cured?"
Achu asked, "Is Gouwa's mother also mentally ill?"
Chen Sanya nodded.
Achu then asked, "In your village, whose mother is like this?"
Chen Sanya counted on her fingers: "Fangniu's mother next door, Xiaoshu's mother, Yaozu's mother..."
After listening to Chen Sanya finish listing the cases, A Chu nodded and said, "As long as it's not congenital, it can be treated."
Chen Sanya was very happy to hear this.
Achu asked many questions without leaving a trace, and the two unsuspecting girls told her everything they knew.
Ah Chu tried to talk to Chen's mother again.
She had assumed she wouldn't receive any response.
Unexpectedly, those dull and lifeless eyes slowly fell upon her.
Achu paused for a moment, then softened her voice: "Hello, my name is Achu. Do you remember your name?"
Those pale, chapped lips moved, and actually responded.
“I…I am called…Xu Lin.”
The voice sounded like it had been sanded, but the spoken language was perfectly standard Mandarin.
Achu was somewhat delighted and asked again, "Do you remember where you're from? When did you come to Cloud Mist Village?"
Xu Lin: "My name is Xu Lin... My home is in Jiang Province... My name is Xu Lin... My home is in Jiang Province..."
Xu Lin's mental state is still not very good; she can only repeat this sentence over and over again.
As the years passed, despite the mental and physical torment, only one sentence remained etched into her very being.
Her name is Xu Lin, and she is from Jiang Province...
As Xu Lin read on, she began to cry.
She seemed to have cried far too much; her eyes had run dry, and she could only wail.
But the crying was filled with deep helplessness and despair.
