Chapter 41 You must be Dong Qingqiu; didn’t you say we don’t want to meet?
Chen Mianmian had just arrived in Chuansong City and didn't know where to go, so she asked the waiter at the guesthouse.
"From here, walk north to the family compound. It's about a mile away. At the intersection, walk east again. It's about two hundred meters away."
Chen Mianmian felt a little dizzy after hearing the north and east directions. She was really bad at finding her way!
In the previous life, there was positioning and navigation, so all you had to do was follow it and find the right direction.
But where could she find her way now?
Just as I was worrying about it, suddenly an excited voice came from the door.
"Comrade Chen, I finally found you."
Chen Mianmian turned her head and saw the young soldier who was on guard yesterday. She heard the dogs gossiping and they happened to be talking about him.
He said someone spilled something on his bedding and mentioned it casually.
Looks like he found the murderer?
"Comrade Chen, thank you for telling me yesterday. I wasn't framed."
Zhang Weiguo looked at Chen Mianmian with gratitude in his eyes and told her what happened yesterday.
When he first heard Chen Mianmian say that he should be careful, he was a little confused and didn't understand why this little girl asked him to check the bedding.
But when he returned to the dormitory after changing shifts, this incident suddenly came to his mind, and he subconsciously picked up the bedding to check it.
Sure enough, some unknown powder was found.
Although he collected them carefully, his palms inevitably became red, swollen and itchy. His pupils constricted and he immediately realized that he was allergic.
He has been healthy since he was a child, but he is allergic to a few things, which only his close friends know about. The slightest touch will cause redness, swelling and itching, and in severe cases, it can be life-threatening.
And these little powders are one of his allergens. The only one who could have framed him so accurately was his good friend who served in the army with him!
"I beat him up. He said he was jealous that I won first place in the last recruit competition and was noticed by Captain Su, so he wanted to make me feel a little worse these past few days!"
Zhang Weiguo was very angry. He could not agree with his friend's mentality and immediately reported it to his superiors.
With this incident, Zhang Weiguo lost many years of friendship, but he did not regret it. It is dangerous to have such a person around, so it is better to stay away from him as soon as possible.
He was so angry that he couldn't sleep all night. He came to Chen Mianmian early in the morning to thank her. If it weren't for her, he would have been in great pain these past few days.
"Thank you, Comrade Chen. If you need anything in the future, please come to me and I will definitely help."
Hearing this, Chen Mianmian's eyes lit up.
"Yes, yes, yes. I need your help now." Chen Mianmian felt that Zhang Weiguo was a compass sent by God to her. "Can you take me to the military compound?"
"Ah? Of course!"
Zhang Weiguo thought Chen Mianmian would ask him to do some physical work, but it turned out that he was sent to the military family compound.
He often helped deliver things to the military family compound, and soon he brought Chen Mianmian with him.
After thanking Zhang Weiguo, Chen Mianmian followed the route he indicated and found a courtyard that looked very spacious.
“Dangdangdang.”
Chen Mianmian took a deep breath, raised her hand and knocked on the door tentatively. Within a minute, she heard a gentle female voice responding.
"Here, who is it?"
The courtyard door was opened, revealing a gentle and beautiful face, especially those eyes that looked almost exactly like Chen Mianmian.
Dong Qingqiu was also stunned when she saw Chen Mianmian. She opened her mouth slightly, with an incredible look on her face.
"My name is Chen Mianmian, the daughter of Chen Dayong from Heshang Village. If I'm not mistaken, you are Dong Qingqiu, right?"
Dong Qingqiu, the biological mother of this body, Chen Mianmian looked at her clothes.
The decent suit, the neatly combed long hair, the fair face and the plump figure all indicate that she is living a good life.
At this moment, Chen Mianmian didn't know whether to feel sad or relieved.
Fortunately, this woman has a good life and does not suffer in the countryside; but it is sad that compared with Dong Qingqiu, the original owner lives worse than the stray dogs in the military area.
Dong Qingqiu felt uncomfortable looking at the slender girl in front of him.
Although she is 19 years old, she is not as tall as a 16-year-old child. Her hair is dry and frizzy, and her face is sallow and lacks nutrition.
Her beautiful facial features were dragged down from 9 points to 6 points, and the only highlight on her face was her bright and lively eyes.
"Why are you here? Didn't I give you a hundred last month? Why, it's not enough for you to spend? Why did you come here in person to take a photo? Didn't I tell you not to meet?"
Before Chen Mianmian could explain her purpose, Dong Qingqiu frowned slightly, pulled her to a corner and lowered his voice, as if she was something that should not be seen in public.
But it’s true.
As for the commander's daughter, she was impulsive when she was young and wanted to go to the battlefield to help. However, she was injured in the brain by shrapnel during the enemy's surprise attack and was sent to Heshang Village to recuperate.
After she woke up, she forgot her origins and understood nothing. She married Chen Dayong in a daze. It was not until the severe pain all over her body when she gave birth to Chen Mianmian that she regained her memory.
It was at that time that she could not accept that she had married a farmer and even gave birth to a daughter.
Especially the poverty of the house with nothing but bare walls made her feel nauseous.
So, when she heard that there were troops stationed nearby, she left her daughter for ten days and went to find the troops. After she revealed her identity, she was quickly sent back to the military area.
From then on, she didn't want to think about the past anymore. She felt ashamed whenever she thought of Chen Mianmian.
If she had not been childless all these years and her father had not warned her not to be so heartless, Dong Qingqiu really didn't want to contact the Chen family again.
As a result, as soon as she started communicating with the other side, Chen Mianmian asked for money and things again and again. Dong Qingqiu disliked her daughter more and more, and felt that she was just like those people in the Chen family, greedy and short-sighted.
This time she actually came directly to his house, which made Dong Qingqiu even angrier. Does this girl want to ruin his life?
"Wait a minute, Comrade Dong Qingqiu, you seem to have made some mistakes."
Chen Mianmian was relieved to see Dong Qingqiu's attitude. Finally, she didn't have to pretend to cry or go through the corny scenes of a mother-daughter meeting.
"I'm not here to find you for anything, I just want to tell you something.
First, I had no idea that all the money and things you sent me over the years were embezzled by Chen Laogen and Chen Li. Not only did they not give me a penny, they didn’t even tell me.
So I haven't received a penny of benefit from you. Please take back your condescending attitude.
Second, I left the Chen family, registered my own household, and was no longer a child of the Chen family.
Third, I just came to see what Chen Mianmian’s mother looks like and how you are doing. I have no intention of disturbing your life.
Finally, there should be a letter coming in the next few days asking for money. Don't worry about it, just tear it up and you don't need to send money there in the future."
After saying this, Chen Mianmian bowed to Dong Qingqiu, then turned and left.
Dong Qingqiu frowned even more tightly as he watched his daughter, who was extremely similar to him yet completely different, leave.
I always feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.
"Hello, this is a registered letter from Dong Qingqiu!"
Just then, the postman came to deliver the letter. Dong Qingqiu walked quickly and saw that it was the postmark of Heshang Village.
Even though Chen Mianmian said to tear it up, she still opened it directly.
The letter still required money, one thousand yuan. If Chen Mianmian hadn't come over and explained it clearly, she would probably have hated her daughter even more.
But now... could it be that what that girl said was true, and that the Chen family had been hiding information about her all these years?
While lost in thought, a piece of paper fell from between his fingers. Dong Qingqiu squatted down to pick it up, unfolded it, and saw only five words - "Mom, I miss you!"
In an instant, Dong Qingqiu's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something, and it felt so bitter that he wanted to cry.
He raised his leg and was about to follow the direction Chen Mianmian left, but he heard the sound of something heavy hitting in the yard. He frowned, but finally walked into the yard.
