Chapter 128

It was a thick photo album, different from the simple furnishings in Shoushan's bungalow. There were hundreds of photos densely stuck in the album, like a honeycomb surrounded by wasps.

Su Zi never dared to touch those old photos casually. Most of the photos were dark and yellow, and the men and women on them had already been in the gloomy and humid environment, turning into big painted faces with blurred ages.

Qiao Zhian pulled out the outer photos and found a few photos from the inside, "This is the photo of Xiao Chu when she was just full moon, this is the photo of her when she was six years old, and this is the photo of her when she was 12 years old. "Photos" in each photo is a yellow face, the water stains are blurred, people can't even make out the facial features.

Except for Su Zi who watched patiently, the other two lost the patience to look closely.Through the photos, one can vaguely smell the old age that has passed away.

"There is also this one, which was taken when Xiaochu entered school." That one is Qiao Zhian's favorite photo, because the Qiao Chu on it is already slim, and the Xiaochu who is closest to Qiao Zhian's memory.It was only this photo that attracted everyone's attention.

Su Zi once snatched the entrance photo of Kelly Women's School. In the bungalow that has lost its glamor, she stared at the girl with big black and white eyes and a playful smile.With mid-length hair and a Kelly uniform, Qiao Chu, beside her
For some reason, Yan Wuxu whispered, her face looked even paler in the dark hut.

"This is Aunt Qiao?" Han Fang was the only one among the four who looked at the photo with the eyes of a bystander. "Isn't the one next to him the Secretary-General? And that person? She and Xiao Xu?"

Yes, besides Qiao Chu and Chang Mei, there is another girl in the center of this old photo of Kelly Girls School.Su Zi took a look at Zengcai, and he was sure that the female student was the one whose head had been cut off by Chang Mei.

After seeing this photo, Su Zizeng knew why Chang Mei wanted to cut that photo.Chang Mei is a jealous woman.And that female student wanted to be a sun, and with just one photo, she could attract everyone's attention.

Yan Wuxu is like her, but not like her.The female student has brown wavy hair that is different from the rest of the Kelly girls, her eyes are full of the light of the sun, the moon and stars, her plump lips, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised with resentment, and she is proud of everything.

Ye Tina, a meteor-like light flashed in the minds of Su Zizeng and Yan Wuxu at the same time.

She is Ye Tina, Yan Wuxu stared at her bewilderedly, what Chang Mei said was true.If Su Qingchang fell in love with such a woman, then she was doomed without saying anything, and she would never be able to escape the spell of this woman in this life.It was Ye Tina's eyes that Su Qingchang kissed every day and night.Yan Wuxu's fingers were twisted together because of the horror.

She is Yetina?Su Zi once looked at the woman in the photo. She and Qiao Chu were arm in arm. There was no gap between their arms. The corners of each other's eyes had the characteristic smile marks when they enjoyed their youth wantonly. Their heads turned warmly. The other party is like a comrade in arms who has experienced the battlefield together, and also like a companion walking in the sunset.

An inexplicable sense of closeness surged from the bottom of her heart, like a spring that had been hidden in her heart for many years, and it just flowed out today.

"Who is she?" Su Zi couldn't help but confirm again, although those two pairs of talking eyes had already told everything, including their laughing youth and their former friendship.

"There is a name on the back of the photo," Qiao Zhian flipped through the photo.After the photo, there were a few mildew spots. Su Zi once complained secretly that a good photo was ruined like this. She resisted the urge to take the photo away and looked at the dozens of teeny-headed people. size name.

"Chang Mei, Qiao Chu, Ye Tina!" Qiao Chu also knew Ye Tina.Invisibly, a door has opened towards Su Zizeng.

"Uncle Biao," Su Zizeng excitedly held Qiao Zhi'an's hand.Qiao Zhi'an froze for a moment, feeling the warmth that he hadn't touched for many years.Qiao Chu came back to life, holding his hand as before, begging him to let her leave Qiao's house and leave with Su Qingchang. "Mother, what happened to the Qiao family back then, and why did it fall to where it is today?"

From the fact that Qiao's family used custom-made bowls, as well as the many photos left by Qiao Chu, it can be seen that Qiao's family can also be considered prominent in Mo City.In the past 20 years, country Z has not experienced wars, nor has there been any regime change. What caused the family situation of the Qiao family to fall halfway, to the point where no one took care of the ancestral grave and the family moved out.

Qiao Zhian hunched over and sat in the corner.The sky had already darkened, and the downhill road would be even more difficult to walk. He looked at Su Zizeng who was eagerly asking, "You really have to listen. After all, it's your good father, and Su Qingchang did the wrong thing."

Su Qingchang, 20 years ago, no one in Mocheng had heard of him. He was just a gangster in the sixth district.A complete hooligan who usually hoards some private goods not allowed by the government and resells some money-losing oil and salt. At that time, the whole country Z, and even Meaux, were not rich, and the government didn't control much. It didn't attract much attention.

Su Qingchang's good luck really started after he met Qiao Chu.Besides Ye Tina, Qiao Chu also has another friend who can talk to her, Chang Mei.Chang Mei lived in the sixth district. Once when Qiao Chu went to see Chang Mei who was sick, she met a local hooligan. That was the time Qiao Chu fell in love with Su Qingchang.

The family status does not match, and Qiao Chu has a fiancé, Qiao Zhi'an, the entire Qiao family is very dissatisfied with this improper marriage, and even the head of the Qiao family specially sent someone to teach and insult Su Qingchang for a long time. Dayton even put Qiao Chu under house arrest at home.

Even so, Qiao Chu still begged Qiao Zhian to release her, and later had Su Qingchang's child.In order to wash away the Qiao family's discrimination against him, Su Qingchang left behind the pregnant Qiao Chu. He brought a large amount of wealth from somewhere, bribed the new government, and won a large amount of mining rights for coal mines and tin mines. Then, in the name of franchising, they expelled all of Qiao's business.After that, the Qiao family gradually declined. In the end, except for Qiao Zhi'an who insisted on staying, there was no other family with the surname Qiao in Mocheng.

"If it wasn't for the old lady of the Wen family, Nianzai had some friendship with the old ancestors and asked the government for me to be a mountain guard. I'm afraid I won't be able to get along in Mo City." Qiao Zhi'an sighed, early A few years ago, before the country Z government carried out the new policy reform, almost all the officials in Mocheng accepted bribes from Su Qingchang. It was not until these few years that the rise of several other big families made life more stable.

"How could Qingchang be so cruel?" Although Yan Wuxu had a taste of Su Qingchang's courage, he never thought that this middle-aged man with a cane would have such a grudge-bearing character.

"Uncle Biao means that father's wealth was not taken from the Qiao family," Su Zi heard it very clearly.As a daughter, Su Qingchang's means of stealing and plundering has been noticed for decades, and there are not many surprises.If Su Qingchang's huge wealth was inherited from the Qiao family, then where did it come from.

And the "Red Love", which originally belonged to Ye Tina's jewelry, and why it was passed from Qiao Chu to Su Zizeng's hands.

When mentioning Su Qingchang, Qiao Zhi'an was full of resentment, thinking that he was originally a young master of a famous family, his fiancée was robbed of his love, and his family business was also wiped out because of other people's persecution.At this time, seeing the daughter of the person she loved back then, who is also the flesh and blood of the person she hated the most, Qiao Zhian wanted to curse and cry at the same time.

By the way, Su Zizeng felt sad when he saw this uncle who still had the air of a failed scholar, "Uncle Cou." She held the back of Qiao Zhian's hand tightly, tears rolling in her eyes.

"Zizen. I remember that Qiao Chu took your name when she was pregnant with you. Is your name Zizeng right?" Qiao Zhian was trapped in the vortex of memory and couldn't extricate himself. Among them, a rich man who had suffered a complete defeat lost.From him, Su Zi was able to see the decline of the old family, and also the cruelty of the rise of the new family.

Qiao Zhi'an declined Su Zi's suggestion to let him move down the mountain.The old house of the Qiao family has now been expropriated by the city hall as the city library.Qiao stayed on the mountain for more than ten years at the beginning, and his memory was integrated with every inch of vegetation on Wolong Mountain.

There was no place for him in Mocheng, and he gave up the opportunity to go overseas to start again.Qiao Zhian's only wish was that Su Zi would go to the Qiao family's ancestral grave to burn incense and worship Buddha for him when he was free, and that he could visit him in the mountains when he was free.

Su Zi once agreed to come down one by one, and when he went down the mountain, Qiao Zhi'an remembered something again.This man, who had been impoverished for half his life, smiled embarrassedly: "Look, according to the old rules, uncles are going to give gifts to their nieces when they meet. I'm used to living on the mountain. I'm a widow, and I don't have any fashionable things. Why don't you go to Wen's house. When Qiao's family moved out, some valuable utensils could not be taken out, so all of them were stored in the old Wen's house. You can take a look at Wen's house, and say that Qiao Zhian came to get Qiao Zhi'an back then. The belongings left by the family. Originally, your mother also left some things, but I sent them abroad at that time. "

Su Zizeng agreed, and after a few words of comfort to Qiao Zhi'an, Boss Han drove the car all the way along Wolong Mountain to the city.

The road down the mountain, under the illumination of street lamps, meanders all the way down.Boss Han concentrated on driving the car, while Yan Wuxu was silent and didn't know what he was thinking.

Su Zizeng didn't take away the old photo that carried Qiao Zhi'an's countless memories. She looked back and saw a green crescent moon hanging obliquely on the mountainside, and the old figure had been standing still. On the clear stone steps, I looked up.Or many years ago, he also stood there, missing the woman in his heart who would never look back at him.
