When salted fish enters the escape game

Chapter 799 Last Words
Qin An'an decided to help Wang Xiaoyan find her family.

She plans to take a few days off from school and come back before the exam.

They don't feel relieved to deal with this matter alone, Xie Zhi accompanied her.

No one else has an opinion.

Xie Zhi is a policeman, it is more convenient to find someone based on information.

But over the past few decades, the system has not been perfect.

Especially for people like Wang Xiaoyan who were tricked into working in other places until they died, it was even more difficult to find clues.

But fortunately, when Qin An'an finally spoke to Wang Xiaoyan, he provided more detailed information.

Wang Xiaoyan still remembers her hometown clearly.

At that time, Pingjiang was just a small village. After the reform and opening up, many small villages gradually developed into small towns.

Pingjiang is no exception, it is now Pingjiang Town.

From City A to Pingjiang Town, when you leave the urban area, you need to take the expressway. After driving on the expressway for more than an hour, after going down, drive along the national highway for about [-] minutes and turn into the county road.

The mountain road has eighteen bends, and it took almost an hour to bend before I slowly saw the dense houses.

Qin Anan looked at the destination on the navigation, only the last 10 minutes left.

The road in the small town is wide in one section and narrow in another, with many turns.

Qin Anan hurriedly felt a little motion sickness, so he opened the car window to get some air.

Just at this time, someone called "Xiao Weihua" was heard outside.

Qin An'an was shocked all over, and he didn't get motion sickness anymore, so he quickly asked Xie Zhi to stop.

"I seem to hear someone's name. I'm going to see if it's the person I'm looking for."

The man Wang Xiaoyan married was named Xiao.

and a son was born.

Naturally, the son is also surnamed Xiao.

Although Wang Xiaoyan died almost 50 years later than now.

But Wang Xiaoyan's child was only in his early ten years old at that time.

If you are living normally and there are no serious illnesses or disasters, it is not a problem to live to be 70 or [-] years old.

According to the time and general information Wang Xiaoyan told her at that time, her son named Xiao Weihua is now 60 years old.

60 years old ...

After 50 years, looking for the people in the small village back then is really like finding a needle in a haystack, with too many uncertain factors.

Because I don't know if the other party is still alive.

Or they are alive, but they marry a wife and have children, and the children take away the older ones and live in other places.

Or they moved by themselves, migrated...

There are too many reasons.

Now that Qin An'an suddenly heard such a name, he was really shocked.

And hopefully that's who she's looking for.

There are no traffic rules here. There are too many cars parked randomly on the street. As long as the police don't show up, you can park as you like.

Xie Zhi stepped on the brake, let Qin Anan get out of the car first, and then went to find a parking space and parked squarely.

The people in the small town were probably surprised by this kind of person who consciously obeyed the rules, or Xie Zhi's car was rare, so they took a few extra glances.

And Qin Anan returned to the place where he heard the name just now.

It was a shop selling dry goods, and there was a fishy smell of dried fish as soon as you approached it.

She didn't get used to it for a while, and sneezed twice, and then a woman about 30 years old came out.

She asked her with a local accent: "Would you like to buy Zigu?"

Qin Anan covered his nose, and quickly asked: "Sister, may I ask, is there a person named Xiao Weihua here just now?"

"Xiao Weihua?" Hearing this name, the woman frowned and sized her up, then said in unproficient Mandarin: "That's my father-in-law, what do you want from him?"

Qin Anan looked at her as if wondering if she was her father-in-law's illegitimate daughter.

"..." She said shyly, "I was entrusted by someone to look for this person. I don't know what he looks like, I only know his name and age. Sister, I just want to meet him and make sure. Could you ask him to come out?"

The woman only felt that the little girl in front of her spoke strangely, but the little girl looked very kind, and she didn't seem to be lying.

But what to say...

A little girl who looked less than 20 years old was entrusted to find a 60-year-old man...

It all sounds like bullshit.

But the woman still nodded: "Okay, I'll call you."

"Thank you, thank you!"

The woman went inside to call someone.

Not long after, an old couple came out.

The woman's complexion was not very good, she was probably angry, while the man was smiling, as if to please and apologize.

"Dad, it's this girl who said she has something to do with you."

Only then did the man turn his head and look at Qin An'an.

The 60-year-old man has gray hair and wrinkles on his face, but his body bones still look very strong.

It is estimated that he has been doing farm work all year round, and his spirit is still very good.

The old man looked at her for a while, wondering: "Little girl, who are you?"

Qin Anan asked cautiously: "Excuse me, is your name Xiao Weihua, are you 60 years old?"

"I am, what a mistake."

She asked again what Wang Xiaoyan told her, her husband's name.

When Xiao Weihua heard it, he was even more puzzled: "How do you still know my father's name?"

After confirming this, Qin Anan breathed a sigh of relief.

She really didn't expect that the person who thought it would be very difficult to find, turned out to be easy to find!
Such a coincidence, no one would believe it!

Xie Zhi parked the car and walked over.

Qin Anan couldn't help but share the good news with him immediately: "It really is him, we found him right away!"

The three of Xiao Weihua looked at them even more confused.

Xie Zhi rubbed her head with a smile, and then said to them: "We are from city A, we went to province G before, and when we were inspecting a... an old factory, we met an old man, We were entrusted by the old man to convey the last words of a deceased lady to her son, and it is said that the lady is the mother of the old Mr. Xiao Weihua."

Mother?

Last words?

Xiao Weihua was stunned for a moment, his wrinkled face was full of shock, and tears overflowed unconsciously from his cloudy eyes.

"My mother? Is it my mother's last words?"

Xie Zhi said: "The name of the deceased lady is Wang Xiaoyan, sir, is it your mother's name?"

When Xiao Weihua heard the name, he couldn't hold back anymore, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes! My mother's name is Wang Xiaoyan, my mother's name is Wang Xiaoyan, this is my mother's name! You really brought my mother's last words? My mother ...Did she leave me a message?"

Seeing that Xiao Weihua was so emotional, his wife and daughter-in-law hurriedly supported him from left to right.

The daughter-in-law asked them to come in and sit down: "If you have anything to say, come in and talk, you guys sit down first."

A group of people went to the inner room.

Xiao Weihua was obviously very excited and anxious: "Tell me quickly, what last words did my mother bring me?"

Qin An'an and Xie Zhi looked at each other, organized and polished what Wang Xiaoyan told her in the excitement and trance at that time, and said softly: "She said, since you left home when you were seven years old, you haven't seen her since you were seven years old. I miss you very much. I used to want to see you grow up, marry a wife, have children, and have a happy family, but none of these can be realized. But even if she can’t come back, she will always miss you as a son. May your life be safe and smooth forever, and your children and grandchildren will have a long life."

Xiao Weihua burst into tears upon hearing this.

"My mother, since my father became lame, she has been raising our family alone. One year she went out to find a job and never came back, but every once in a while someone would send money, and later , No one came to send the money, my mother completely lost the news, I knew she must have suffered an accident, I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I was 60 years old, and I could still hear the words my mother left me!"

"My mother..." Xiao Weihua cried very sadly.

Then Qin An'an and Xie Zhi heard Xiao Weihua's wife and daughter-in-law tell them with red eyes that Xiao Weihua's father and mother treated each other like guests, and they had feelings for each other. His father died in depression two years after he didn't hear from his mother.

Two elderly members of the family also died.

Because Wang Xiaoyan was working outside, Xiao Weihua's family had saved some money from the sent back, so he lived on it and went to work himself.

But his family is very serious.

Father is buried here.

I also don't believe that my mother will never hear from me, so I have been rooting here.

No matter how it changes, don't leave.

Later, when he grew up, married a wife, and gave birth to a child, he was willing to build a tomb for his mother and bury him next to his father.

In Xiao Weihua's mind, the last time he saw his mother was when he was seven years old. After so many years, he couldn't remember what his mother looked like.

But he will always remember that it was his mother's thin body that supported their precarious home, and did not let him starve to death or freeze to death.

He has feelings for his mother, and he also feels guilty.

Feeling guilty for so many years is still so useless, I don't even know if my mother is alive or dead.

I don't even know where my mother was deceived to work.

I don't know when he died.

But the only fortunate thing is that after 50 years, when he was still alive, he actually waited for his mother's last words!

The elderly can be comforted all their lives.

Qin An'an and Xie Zhi were a little moved.

Qin Anan said softly: "The old man who asked us to pass on the last words said that before your mother passed away, I hope that if I find you one day, I will let you go and offer her a stick of incense, as a final farewell."

Maybe it's also giving Wang Xiaoyan an end.

After getting rid of this obsession and last wish, maybe she will be free forever.

Xiao Weihua nodded while wiping away his tears: "Thank you, thank you so much, it's hard work for you to travel so far, hurry up, hurry up and prepare something, today I'm going to offer incense to my mother."

The latter words were addressed to his wife and daughter-in-law.

The old man waited for so many years, just for today, his wife and daughter-in-law did not persuade him, and hurried to prepare.

Then the group got into Xie Zhi's car, and under the guidance of his daughter-in-law, the car drove to the foot of the mountain, and the group walked up the mountain again.

It only took about ten minutes to climb the mountain to reach their own cemetery.

There are two raised tombs, and monuments have been erected.

On one side is Wang Xiaoyan's husband, and on the other side is Wang Xiaoyan's tomb.

Like most people of the older generation, Xiao Weihua burned paper money and incense, cried and talked a lot with his mother.

When you get older, you talk a lot, not to mention waiting for so many years for your last words.

Now all the grievances and sadness came up.

His wife and daughter-in-law were also infected and kept wiping away their tears.

Qin An'an and Xie Zhi watched quietly all the time, thinking, Wang Xiaoyan can really let go this time.

It has been 50 years, and the son still thinks about this missing mother who died at some unknown time.

Just as she has been thinking about this son who was separated at the age of seven, the son is always grateful in his heart to the mother who has given everything for the family.

Her waiting and suffering were all worth it.

Now there is an echo.

It turns out that sometimes, if you persevere hard, you can really see miracles.

After coming down from the mountain, it was already dark.

Xiao Weihua asked the two of them to have dinner.

"It's not easy for you to come here. It will take three or four hours to go back to City A. It's too strenuous. Why don't you just stay here? We have a spare room upstairs, but it's definitely not as luxurious and comfortable as the people in the city. , but clean and able to accommodate people.”

Qin An'an and Xie Zhi didn't mind this.

After a day's driving, I was really tired, and I didn't plan to rush back in a hurry.

Their kindness was hard to turn down, so they agreed.

During dinner, Xiao Weihua was happy and wanted to have a few drinks.

His wife couldn't help scolding him: "I know I'm sick and I still drink, but I didn't scold you enough for those two drinks during the day, did I?"

Xiao Weihua said: "Oh, isn't this happy? Let me have a drink with this young man, young man, are you drinking?"

Xie Zhi said: "I don't drink well, I can only have a drink, old gentleman forgive me."

"Hey, it's okay, it's okay!" Xiao Weihua waved his hand: "Just have a drink, you are also tired from the day, after drinking, go back to your room early to sleep."

"Okay." Xie Zhi agreed.

Although Xiao Weihua's wife still couldn't help talking about him, she smiled and poured wine for the two of them.

Qin Anan ate slowly, but after she finished eating, Xie Zhi clinked glasses with Xiao Weihua with a disposable cup. The white wine hadn't bottomed out yet, so he probably had to sip it slowly.

Qin An'an and Xiao Weihua's daughter-in-law got up first and walked away.

The two went upstairs to spread the quilt for their room.

"It's very cold here at night. This quilt is thick, and it's a bit heavy to cover comfortably, but it's very warm. Don't dislike it."

"No." Qin Anan said quickly, "Thank you."

"Little girl, don't be so polite to me. You guys have solved a problem for my father-in-law. You don't know. For so many years, every year my father-in-law has to talk to us about the dead grandma. This is his lifetime regret. , It’s all right now, I’ve finally untied this knot in my heart, he’s getting older, and he can really relax in the future.”

Qin Anan said softly, "It's just a coincidence that we can do it with little effort."

The little girl said it lightly, but they knew in their hearts that this was a hopeless thing.

It's just that she was lucky, and so were they.

It was just like this.

There are some things in this world that you have to say are amazing!
