Two rickshaws carrying four people arrived at the entrance of the alley.
Bi Tiegang was the first to get off the car. He helped Bi Sheng to jump off and shouted to Liu Yafang who also got off the car:
"The house number is 161. It's near these two rows. Can you compare them to see which gate it is?"
After saying that, he took out the pocket of his cotton-padded jacket to pay.
But after he paid and saw the two cars were about to leave, he turned around and saw that the people had only walked forward a few steps and were standing there without even going to the gate.
"What's the matter?"
Bi Sheng looked back at his father, took a step back without saying a word, raised a hand with a muffled hand and pointed. The address on the small iron plate in the corner of the wall was exactly the address on the letter.
Liu Yafang asked in a low voice with an expression of disbelief:
"Isn't this number 161? Right? We're not mistaken, are we? But...
Is this right? Can our Tielin afford such a big yard? Have you heard him say that?
In Liu Yafang's mind, even if they moved this house back to their home in Zhaojiatun, Northeast China, it would still cost a lot of money to build it. If that were the case, she felt that she had underestimated her brother-in-law.
Bi Tiegang pretended to be calm, put his hands on his hips, walked back a few steps, and looked around.
I found that every house in this alley had its doors tightly closed.
The red-painted double doors are decorated with exquisite brick flower clusters above the doors. Even the corners between the door frame and the brick walls on both sides are decorated with Ruyi-shaped flowers.
The winter sun shone obliquely on the door, making it seem a bit timid to approach.
Chen Cuiliu's ears were red from the cold. She hadn't worn a hat since she got off the train for fear of messing up her hair.
At this moment, her steps were timid and her eyes were wide open in astonishment.
She looked at the extremely decent house in front of her, her heart beating uncontrollably with excitement.
This? Such a large courtyard, and in the great capital of Kyoto.
If it was really bought by Brother Tielin, then when she moves in, won’t this house be hers?
…
There were two door handles made of wrought iron. Bi Tiegang took off his gloves and rang the door knockers.
"Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock!"
The house at No. 161 was quiet and there was no response, but the door of a large house next door was knocked open.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Auntie, is this family surnamed Bi? I'm looking for Bi Tielin."
"Who are you?"
"I'm his biological brother. My name is Bi Tiegang. I'm from the Northeast. Is that correct? This family's surname is Bi, right?"
Grandpa Sun, who happened to open the door of the house next door, witnessed the fight between Bi Yue and him.
He lifted his bicycle and stepped over the threshold. He turned his head to take a closer look when he heard the noise. He glanced carefully up and down at Bi Tiegang and the others before continuing:
"Ah. Is it Xiaobi's brother? Don't you know that everyone in the family is in the hospital? People's Hospital, your child is in the hospital, they are all there!"
"What?" Bi Tiegang's eyes widened instantly. "What happened to someone?"
"What?! Whose child is this?" Liu Yafang's heart ached.
Child? Her child is right here!
With a snap, the triangular bag on Liu Yafang's shoulder fell to the ground.
…
Chen Cuiliu was carrying the triangular bag on her back, and several people, including Bi Tiegang, ran to the street at the same time.
Liu Yafang, who seemed timid when she got off the train, actually took the lead and ran ahead of Bi Sheng, who had been climbing mountains for years.
Her eyes were blurred with tears, her head was confused, her heart was panicked, and she couldn't help muttering to herself:
"People's Hospital, People's Hospital. My two children, my..."
It was Grandpa Sun who caught up on his bike from behind who reminded him, "That minibus is going fast. It should be alright."
Bi Tiegang nodded hurriedly, having long forgotten to say thank you to Grandpa Sun. He only remembered to stop any car with four wheels.
…
Bi Yue gritted her teeth and closed her eyes to endure the pain, unable to bear to watch the doctor change her dressing.
That expression made Bi Cheng's ribs ache.
Bi Yue leaned against the headboard, holding her neck, unable to control the pain and kept groaning.
She felt that she was really spoiled.
Also, people are really weird.
When there is no hope, you can struggle like a donkey.
As soon as there was hope, as her eldest brother said, it was all over.
When she was injured on the train and couldn't even get treatment or disinfection, she seemed to have lost her sense of pain.
But this time, when she came back and went to the hospital, she felt pain wherever she touched, and everything seemed to be wrong.
"Hey, Dacheng."
Bi Cheng had just applied eye drops, and his appearance was much worse than Bi Yue's. He turned around and said, "Huh?"
Bi Yue glanced at the uncle in the crib next to her, leaned towards Bi Cheng, and sighed softly:
"Can you imagine Xiaoxiao being our aunt? You said your uncle didn't hide anything from me. He told me everything in the car yesterday. Even though I was mentally prepared, I didn't know what to say."
Bi Cheng...
"I'm talking about Liang Xiaoxiao, your sister Xiaoxiao!"
Bi Cheng said without any surprise, "I know. If you can do that with Big Brother Chu, it's no surprise that Sister Xiaoxiao and our uncle can do that. Nothing is impossible."
Bi Yue was choked and reacted unconvincedly:
"What? Chu Yifeng and I are not much different in generation!
Your sister Xiaoxiao is my classmate. You call her sister. We are from the same generation. She and I have a close relationship where we can even exchange clothes.
If it really happens, we have to call her aunt. Aren't you uncomfortable with this change in relationship? What's your reaction?"
Bi Cheng didn't know whether he should criticize his sister. He paused for a few seconds before saying:
