Chapter 46 find
Since the mother was diagnosed, Cheng Shi and his wife have taken good care of them. Even if they do not see each other occasionally, they are always around, and neighbors will see them.
Cheng Shi panicked, and immediately said to his wife, "Ask the neighbors if they saw it first, and I'll be right back!"
Seeing him hang up the phone, Fu Shuzhuo reminded: "Call the police."
Cheng Shi: "Oh yes!"
He immediately called the police to explain the situation, and then rushed home.
Pei Yang whispered, "Should we also help?"
"...Well, let's go." Fu Shuzhuo actually hesitated for a moment just now. In terms of emotion, he should help, but he was afraid of irritating Pei Yang.
Pei Yang shook the cloth in his hand: "Untie it?"
"No." Fu Shuzhuo took Pei Yang's hand and followed Cheng Shi, "When you are looking for someone, you have to be by my side, don't run around."
Pei Yang frowned: "I'm not a three-year-old child."
Fu Shuzhuo: "You don't have a mobile phone on you, and I can't contact you if you run far away. What should you do if you are in danger?"
"..."
Pei Yang pursed his lower lip and didn't say anything else. He had a feeling before that Fu Shuzhuo was very unwilling to leave his sight for even a second.
It seems that his "amnesia" made Fu Shuzhuo very insecure...
Poor boy.
There is no one in Cheng Shi's family. His wife has gone out to look for it, and the neighbors who are idle at home have also helped.
Fu Shuzhuo: "Where does she usually go? For example, you can look for the places she used to go before she got sick."
Cheng Shi was stunned: "Before she got sick, my mother used to shop at three o'clock and one line at the wonton shop in the vegetable market at home."
The wonton shop is unlikely. His wife was busy at the wonton shop just now, and because she was worried, she went home and checked, only to find that her mother-in-law was gone.
"Then let's look for it separately." Fu Shuzhuo looked at his watch, "It's only a short time, and we shouldn't go too far."
"I'm sorry to trouble you!" Cheng Shi didn't have time to be polite, and left a number for them to leave the house in a hurry.
Pei Yang: "Where are we going?"
Fu Shuzhuo thought for a while: "Go to our house, walk along the river, there are few people during the day, don't let mother-in-law have an accident there."
All of a sudden, there were people calling Grandma Cheng's name everywhere in the streets and alleys.
The older generation living here basically eat wontons made by Mother-in-law Cheng herself. Everyone knows her and is willing to help.
"Grandma Cheng!"
"Cheng Fen!"
Pei Yang and Fu Shuzhuo quickly looked around the river, but they didn't find anyone there. It was raining again, and half of their shoulders were wet.
Pei Yang was short of breath: "Can't the police check and monitor?"
Fu Shuzhuo looked around, sweat dripped from the tip of his nose: "This area has not been demolished, it is all old houses in the old streets, and there are not many surveillance systems."
Pei Yang was at a loss: "Then where shall we go next?"
Fu Shuzhuo called Cheng Shi: "Does Granny Cheng usually take the bus?"
"Yes! Bus No. 63, my mother used to take it once a week!"
They immediately headed towards the bus station, which was not far from Cheng Shi's house, and if they really wanted to take the bus, no one would know where it was right now.
As soon as he arrived at the station, Pei Yang heard a young couple walking beside him saying, "What did the driver scold just now? I don't even understand."
"The old man who came up in front didn't give any money, and he seemed too old to do anything, so the driver could only swear and vent."
"Looks a little nervous, keeps talking about a photo studio—"
Pei Yang and Fu Shuzhuo looked at each other, and immediately heard the sound of the last visit to Cheng Shi's house, and Granny Cheng kept talking about taking wedding photos with her husband.
In the past, the wedding photos of the older generation were simple, just find a photo studio and take a few photos in cheongsam or wedding dress.
Fu Shuzhuo immediately contacted Cheng Shi to ask about the location of the old photo studio, but Cheng Shi didn't know. He wasn't born when his mother took the wedding photos, so it's unclear whether the photo studio still exists.
Pei Yang: "Why don't you ask the old people who live nearby?"
"it is good."
It could only be like this, the two of them were holding the same umbrella, even the pace of their steps was almost the same, they searched for the target tacitly, and continued to the next one without getting the answer.
Until an old man on the corner of the street was coming out to catch rainwater with a bucket, he was hit by them.
"Master, do you know where there is an old photo studio near here where people of your generation took pictures?"
The uncle gave them a strange look: "Where is there such a place now, it will be demolished and outdated."
Fu Shuzhuo: "Then where is the old photo studio?"
The uncle turned his muddy pupils, and it took a long time to extract the node from the long-term memory: "There used to be a family on Guming Street, but it was closed a few years ago, and no one took family photos."
After asking about the approximate location, Fu Shuzhuo and Pei Yang immediately took a taxi and headed there.
It turned out that it was not easy to take a taxi on a rainy day, and the driver looked at them suspiciously when he finally got a taxi: "What are you doing with this?"
Pei Yang looked down at the wrists tied together with Fu Shuzhuo, and smiled awkwardly: "We're just having fun."
The driver wasn't too suspicious, mainly because they didn't look like bad guys.
It was even more embarrassing when they got out of the car. They forgot that the cloth strips were still tied around their wrists, and got out of the car on both sides respectively, only to be pulled back by the strength of the other party: "Oh——"
Pei Yang covered his head and glared at Fu Shuzhuo.
Fu Shuzhuo sighed, moved to his side and got off the car, he untied the cloth strip from Pei Yang's hand, and put it in his palm.
Pei Yang looked at him inexplicably, really walking the dog?
Fu Shuzhuo: "Catch it well, don't lose me."
Pei Yang was taken aback, and while feeling childish, he grasped the cloth more and more tightly, as if he was really afraid of losing Fu Shuzhuo.
Guming Street is also an old street, which is even more dilapidated, with narrow roads and poor lighting.According to the old man just now, the old photo studio used to be at the end of the alley.
Before seeing him, he heard his voice first, and the two of them heard a sharp voice from a long distance: "Where did you hide Qin Hui!"
Fu Shuzhuo saw a familiar figure from a distance, and he immediately called Cheng Shi to ask him to come over, and then stepped forward to check the situation.
Sure enough, Granny Cheng was here. She was wearing a loose cheongsam, which was turned upside down, with the high back collar stuck to her chin. She was beating and cursing at the door of a cafe.
The male shop owner's forehead was bleeding, he bent down to cover his head and drilled into the shop, and slammed the door shut: "I'm calling the police!"
Fu Shuzhuo stepped forward quickly: "Mother-in-law! What's wrong?"
"My Qin Hui!" Granny Cheng sat on the ground collapsed, "Didn't you agree to take a photo, where did you hide him..."
She didn't match her words, and felt that someone had hidden her husband for a while, and then accused the cafe owner of why she didn't take pictures of her, and they paid all the money.
"You give me my money back!" Granny Cheng pointed at the cafe and yelled, "Refund me! You son of a bitch!"
The scene was very chaotic for a while, and more and more people were watching. Granny Cheng didn't even hold an umbrella, but luckily it wasn't raining too much.
Fu Shuzhuo looked for an opportunity to snatch the stick from Granny Cheng's hand, Pei Yang hurriedly stood behind her and held an umbrella for her to keep out the rain.
A few minutes later, the police followed Cheng Shi and the others to arrive.
The owner of the coffee shop finally dared to come out: "I called the police! This old lady didn't know where she came from, and she just beat me and the shop. Look!"
Cheng Shi's wife apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please see how much money you lost, and we will pay for it."
Seeing that his attitude was okay, the boss's expression softened a bit.
Cheng Shi wanted to go up to see his mother's situation, but when she saw him approaching, she hugged Pei Yang's thigh and yelled in horror, "It's him! It's him who keeps me locked up every day!"
Pei Yang was dumbfounded.
Granny Cheng's nails pinched Pei Yang's leg tightly, crying loudly: "He won't let me meet Qin Hui! He won't take pictures of me, I won't be able to eat grapes—"
"Mom, I'm Cheng Shi." Cheng Shi approached slowly, "I'm your son Cheng Shi!"
"I don't have a son! Where's my son... Qin Hui and I just got the certificate, don't slander me, I'm innocent!"
Granny Cheng spoke upside down, more like talking to herself.
The police were there to mediate the compensation issue with the shop owner and Cheng Shi's wife, while here, Granny Cheng was holding on to Pei Yang's leg and refused to go home.
"Go away! Go away!" Granny Cheng threatened, waving her arms, "I don't know you!"
Fu Shuzhuo squatted down beside her: "Then do you still know me? I am Shuzhuo, the son of the old Fu family."
Granny Cheng repeated in a daze: "Shu Zhuo..."
"Yes, it's me. Shall I take you home?"
Granny Cheng stared at him blankly, but within a second she started crying and cursing again: "Old Fu's son is dead! He was forced to death by those two sons of bitches!"
"I don't give him food, he needs cold water to take a bath, and the firewood chopping in the middle of the night is so noisy... Poor little son, he is bullied every day... Dead, dead."
Sick people seem to remember all the early memories clearly, only forgetting the present or the previous second.
She lay on the ground and told about Fu Shuzhuo's experience of being abused before, and she believed the news that Fu Shuzhuo died outside that her aunt's family had preached.
Pei Yang's throat tightened, and his heart ached terribly.
Cheng Shi wanted to take the opportunity to get closer, but Granny Cheng pushed him away: "I don't know you, who are you? Don't come here, don't lock me up... Cheng Shi! Come and save Mom—"
Cheng Shi fell to the ground and met his mother's eyes. He was clearly in front of her eyes, but her mother couldn't recognize him, and she still called his name for help.
She kept saying that she didn't know Cheng Shi, but was dragged down with the help of the police.
"Okay, grandma, this is your son, go home with him! My son has been looking for you for a long time."
"He's not my son, I don't know him, I really don't know him."
Granny Cheng was supported, but she didn't yell now, probably out of instinctive trust in the police uniform.
But she was still talking nonsense: "Where are you taking me? I still want Qin Hui to take wedding photos..."
Pei Yang stood in place holding a black umbrella.His leg was painfully pinched by Grandma Cheng, but he didn't seem to feel it at all, and a feeling of almost suffocating sadness rose in his heart for no reason.
Why do you get sick?
Why.
What did she do wrong?
Although Grandma Cheng spoke a bit vulgarly, she was a really good person. She had been making wontons all her life, was friendly to her neighbors, and patient with her children.
Her hunched back was beaten into a mess by the muddy water, and she still muttered words that no one could understand from time to time.
Pei Yang stared blankly at this farce, and a voice played back in his mind——
"What did I do wrong again?"
...
As soon as Granny Cheng walked to the police car, she saw the daughter-in-law who was talking to the owner of the store again. She went up and grabbed her arm and said, "The girl is pretty, have you made friends yet..."
"My son is very nice. He used to be ignorant and messed around, but now he is very filial and obedient. His name is Cheng Shi. He is an engineer, and he is honest."
Cheng Shi's eyes were red, and he sniffed desperately.
Now that the person was found, Fu Shuzhuo was about to take Pei Yang away. He picked up the end of the cloth strip that Pei Yang had just fallen off and put it in his hand again: "Didn't I ask you to catch it?"
Pei Yang came back to his senses: "...I'm sorry."
Fu Shuzhuo saw that his expression was wrong: "What's wrong?"
Pei Yang said in a nasty voice: "I forgot about you, are you very sad?"
"Yes." Fu Shuzhuo's eyes moved, "But it's okay, as long as you're fine."
Pei Yang: "If, if I die, what will you do..."
Fu Shuzhuo paused, and didn't even ask him why he asked this question: "I don't know. Maybe I'll hold your photo for a lifetime, or maybe I'm with Shang Zhuo to piss you off—"
Before he finished speaking, Pei Yang hurriedly retorted: "No! Shang Zhuo can't!"
Fu Shuzhuo added calmly: "It is also possible to pack up everything and go with you."
Pei Yang said in a nasty voice: "In the future, you will meet someone you are attracted to..."
"No." Fu Shuzhuo replied with certainty.
"..." Pei Yang had a strange feeling, half of his heart was sad, and half of him was happy for the victory of possessive desire.
He was like a soul that had been torn in two, confused and bewildered.
The sirens gradually faded away, and the crowd dispersed. Cheng Shi and the owner of the coffee shop went to the police station for mediation, while Fu Shuzhuo was going to take Pei Yang to the mall to divert his attention.
He walked forward for a long time, and found that Pei Yang had been deliberately slowing down to follow behind him, and never surpassed him by half a step.
He couldn't help but stop and ask, "What's wrong?"
Pei Yang held the strip of cloth and held back for a long time before he said, "Isn't it good to walk the dog in public?"
Fu Shuzhuo: "..."
He thought calmly, why do people keep cats?Isn't it just to be happy while being angry?
Bear with it, the cat I choose will be raised even while kneeling.
Pei Yang walked for a while in a daze, then suddenly called his name: "Fu Shuzhuo."
Fu Shuzhuo: "Well, what's wrong?"
Pei Yang seemed to be addicted to calling, calling over and over again: "Fu Shuzhuo."
"Here." Fu Shuzhuo responded tirelessly.
"Fu Shuzhuo..." Pei Yang stopped in his tracks, tightly grasping one end of the cloth strip, "I want to tell you something."
