Chapter 27 Chapter 26 The Rose Brooch

Aunt Xue might be a little tired, maybe a little nervous, her forehead was covered with sweat, and she calmed down for a quarter of an hour before she said slowly: "At that time, the child was lost, and the hairpin also disappeared. Such a major event happened at home. Unexpected change, I have long forgotten about the hairpin... But what I never expected was that the hairpin from back then appeared on Yiling's head. My God, what happened? At that time, I couldn't hold back Excited in my heart, I looked up at Yiling's head several times, I wanted to confirm if this hairpin was mine? But that girl seemed very alert, so she didn't show it to me for a second look."

Speaking of this, Aunt Xue sighed: "At that time, my heart was both excited and scared. Is she really the granddaughter I lost back then? I can't confirm it. So many years have passed, and this extravagant hope in my heart is slowly getting worse. Fading, she suddenly came to me like this, in my heart, it's like growing grass, I'm happy and afraid at the same time." Rock knows how Aunt Xue has been through these 18 years, he can understand.But is it a bit rash to conclude that Yiling is her lost granddaughter just based on a hairpin?This is the doubt in Rock's mind.

However, Aunt Xue quickly dispelled Yan Yan's doubts, and she covered her face and cried bitterly: "I also know that a hairpin doesn't mean anything, so I want to confirm Yi Ling's identity as soon as possible. But, but... I Poor child, before I could confirm this, Yiling was sent to the hospital, and she turned into a vegetable... Oh my god, this must be God punishing me as an old woman! I regretted it all at the time Green, I regret that I didn't ask Yi Ling well that night." Rock sighed unceasingly, but Aunt Xue cried and shouted: "Yi Ling was admitted to the hospital, and it happened that Shanshan's mother also went to that hospital for treatment. At this time, Dai Shanshan asked me to take care of Yi Ling who was in a coma. It was in my arms, so I took the opportunity to look at the hairpin under her pillow—after careful identification, I was finally sure: this hairpin is mine, and it is really the hairpin that was lost with the child back then."

After a pause, Aunt Xue wiped her tears with her hands, her voice weakened: "I know there is a mole on the child's waist, so I secretly looked at it when I was taking care of her...the mole is still there. Yiling, Yiling It is really my granddaughter who has been lost for many years. The unconscious person in front of me is really my granddaughter...I never thought that our grandparent and grandson would meet in this way, this is really God's punishment for me!" Aunt Xue's shoulders trembled , her old face was covered with tears, and she was crying heartbroken. Rock was moved, he didn't know how to comfort the old woman in front of him.Many years ago, her family was ruined because of the loss of her child. Now that the child has been found in this way, it is already different!The son died, the life and death of the daughter-in-law were unknown, and the granddaughter who was finally found became a vegetable... Fate seemed too cruel for Aunt Xue.At this time, she became the most helpless old man in her old age. Crying and sorrow cast a thick curtain on the air, and she even felt a sense of suffocation because she couldn't breathe.

Rock thought a lot in his heart, but still couldn't help but said: "No matter what, how could you put your pain on an innocent girl. Dai Shanshan has no grievances with you, how can you treat her like this? "The rock clenched his fist, and his heart tightened involuntarily. Aunt Xue finally came to her senses, her sadness just now turned into hatred: "Hmph, Dai Shengcai's family is not a good person. He started his business by trafficking people when he was young, and that Wang Cuilian is an accomplice." Rock was surprised, and slightly startled: "Is Wang Cuilian an accomplice?"

Aunt Xue snorted through her nostrils: "The two of them worked hand in hand. When they were young, they did some unconscionable things. Later, they got retribution. They were married for several years without having a child... Back then, Dai Shengcai took Wang Cuilian to look around. After seeing a doctor, it took several years to finally get pregnant with Dai Shanshan. Hmph, now you know why Dai Shengcai dotes on her girl so much, right?" Oh, so there is such a thing, Rock frowned. Seeing that Yan Yan was silent, Aunt Xue continued: "Later, when Dai Shengcai became rich, more and more women came to see him, and they often didn't return at night. Wang Cuilian was so anxious that she wanted to kill with a knife, but There is nothing I can do. Because Dai Shengcai doesn't like her at all, and he is determined to divorce her."

Rock wondered: "It seems that they have been fighting for a long time, right?" Aunt Xue's eyes narrowed, and her memory returned to that night.If she hadn't eavesdropped on their conversation, she wouldn't have known it so clearly—that night, it was very late at night, there was a strong wind blowing outside the window, and the window in the living room seemed to be open, so Aunt Xue hurriedly got out of bed in the middle of the night Close the window. After closing the window, Aunt Xue was about to go back to sleep when she saw a light on in the study on the second floor—it was so late, who was still in there?Suspicious in her heart, she walked over involuntarily.Stepping lightly to the door, Aunt Xue quietly pressed her ear to the door, only then did she vaguely hear the quarrel inside.

First came Wang Cuilian's furious scolding, saying that Dai Shengcai is a wolf-hearted dog, inferior to pigs and dogs, and the ungrateful Chen Shimei... I know it's the same old routine again. When Aunt Xue was about to go back to sleep, she heard Wang Cuilian yell again viciously: "surname In other words, if you must divorce me, then we will have a bloody battle, and I will reveal all the things you did when you were young, and I guess you are enough to die eight times!" Hearing this, Rock's voice was full of perseverance: "What is the thing that Shanshan's mother said? Could it be the human trafficking thing?"

Aunt Xue shook her head: "It seems to be, it doesn't seem to be...it should be a matter of decapitation, I guess this must be a murder case! At that time, I heard the room was silent for a few minutes, because Wang Cuilian said this. I was very nervous, and immediately compromised, still saying haha: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about the divorce, everyone will live a good life in the future." Afterwards, there was no movement in the room, and I was afraid of being killed. They found out, so they hurried back to the room." Outside the window, I don't know when the wind will blow.Autumn is coming to an end soon, the temperature difference between night and day is huge, and the rock is not wearing a coat, and now he feels a little shivering in his body.Seeing this, Aunt Xue took a coat from the side of the bed and put it on him. Yan Yan looked up at her gratefully—the two looked at each other, but there was a little strangeness and confusion in their expressions.Yes, because Rock still doesn't understand at this time, what is the relationship between this old lady and Dai Shanshan's death?

Aunt Xue returned to her seat, her eyes were deep, and she glanced at Yan Yan meaningfully: "Do you still remember that dress of Yi Ling?" "Clothes?" Rock wondered. Aunt Xue nodded: "Yes, Yiling's clothes... I saw that Yiling had finished washing her clothes that night, so I helped her hang them on the rack in the laundry room. But when you woke up the next morning, her clothes A black dress turned into a strip of cloth, do you know who did it?" "Who?" Rock's voice was a little nervous. Aunt Xue's eyes widened, and she suddenly shouted: "It's Dai Shanshan, it's she who cut up the clothes!"

"Shanshan? This is impossible!" Rock was extremely surprised.As far as he knew, Dai Shanshan bought that dress for Yi Ling. Since he bought the dress for her, but cut it off, it seemed unreasonable. "Actually, there's nothing difficult to understand. It's just one word, that is: jealousy." Aunt Xue sighed. "Jealous?" Rock became more and more confused. It seemed that the rock was like an elm lump, and Aunt Xue curled her lips: "I don't understand, Dai Shanshan likes you, but you pay close attention to Yi Ling, which naturally made that young lady unhappy. People rely on clothes The horse rests on the saddle, maybe Yiling was very rustic, but since she put on that black dress, she has become very radiant... Dai Shanshan must have thought that the clothes were causing the trouble, so she secretly took a black dress while everyone was sleeping at night. The scissors ruined the clothes. Hmph, this little girl is as virtuous as her father, and her heart is dark. At that time, I was watching in the dark, wishing I could go up and beat her up. When I saw Yiling's eyes in the early morning I feel very sad when I feel the loss and pain in my life. Maybe this is the blood connection, telepathy, my poor granddaughter, I don’t know what kind of life I have lived and how much I have suffered for so many years, and I blame me. It's all my fault..." Aunt Xue continued nagging, but Rock slowly closed her eyes, and said in a low voice, "Where is the black cat that night? Who killed the black cat in the bathroom?" Aunt Xue was startled, and shook her head slightly: "I haven't been to the second floor at night, so I don't know anything about the death of the black cat. I have no idea who killed the cat." Oh, and Aunt Xue didn't know about the death of the black cat, but Rock always felt that it was a silent hint.After the death of the black cat, something happened to Yi Ling when she returned to school... There seems to be inextricable connections between them.Rock closed his eyes in pain again, his mouth was tightly pressed together, and he didn't speak for a long time. The room fell into inexplicable silence again, Rock stopped talking, but Aunt Xue couldn't help it, tears welled up in her eye sockets, and she sighed: "I hate human traffickers so much, Dai Shengcai and his family let me I hate it, but Dai Shanshan is innocent after all, so I won't take the initiative to hurt her... But just two days ago, I received a call. The call was from a man who said he knew everything about me, And know the purpose of my coming to Dai Shengcai's house." These words completely woke Rock up, he stared at Aunt Xue suddenly, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What, a man called you?" Aunt Xue nodded, and her voice trembled slightly: "It's a man. He knows everything about me, and even knows that I lost my granddaughter and daughter-in-law. I was very surprised at the time. Just when I was about to ask about the situation, he suddenly said viciously : "We are on the same road, and I also hate Dai Shengcai...don't think that what he did back then can cover the sky with one hand, now it's time for retribution." At this point, the man asked me if I want to take revenge, do I want to relieve my anger? " "Because I didn't know who this man was and what he wanted to do for a while. So I seemed a little hesitant. Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly shouted:'What are you still hesitating? Your granddaughter was abducted by him back then !' Hearing this, I felt as if I had been struck by five thunderbolts, and I couldn't recover for a long time. When I was at a loss, the man said that now is a very good time to make a move. If this can be done, he promises to make Dai Shengcai die of pain At that time, I was already dazzled by hatred. Thinking of the blood and tears of these years, I couldn't help but want to kill someone. I also heard that Dai Shengcai was the trafficker who abducted my granddaughter, so I gritted my teeth with hatred. Thinking of this, I hurriedly responded." "Ah, what exactly does that man want from you?" Rock clenched his fists tightly. Aunt Xue's eyes flashed: "He told me that Dai Shanshan followed you back to the village and would be back in two days. He also said that if nothing happened, Dai Shanshan would go to the hospital to visit her mother first... When Shanshan came to the ward, she asked me to pass the mineral water to Dai Shanshan to drink, as long as she drank the water, my task would be completed, and my revenge would be avenged." Sure enough, a story happened to Dai Shanshan.But I didn't see Aunt Xue that day, how did she let Dai Shanshan drink water?Thinking of this, Rock was suddenly puzzled. Aunt Xue's eyes dimmed.If she hadn't gone through such a thing, she might be spending her days at home, but what about now?What else is left in the heart besides hatred?It's just that the blood and tears for so many years can't just be forgotten, even if you fight your old bones, you have to take revenge.Therefore, Aunt Xue followed the man's words without hesitation, without leaving any traces. In fact, long before Yan Yan and Dai Shanshan arrived at the hospital, Aunt Xue had already waited in the ward where Shanshan's mother lived, holding a bottle of mineral water in her hand, which was given by the mysterious man.He put the bottle of water in the locker next to the supermarket, and Aunt Xue took it out according to the barcode he told him on the phone. Aunt Xue waited anxiously in the ward. When she heard the sound of "Tata" footsteps, Aunt Xue knew that Dai Shanshan was coming. Entering the room, Dai Shanshan was full of doubts after seeing Aunt Xue: "Where is my mother?" Aunt Xue smiled: "Look, where did you sweat from running? Come on, drink some water first. Your mother is going for a checkup. I'll pick her up later." Actually, Shanshan Mom has been transferred, but Aunt Xue not only did not tell the truth, but also coaxed her to drink mineral water. After running all the way, she was really thirsty, so Dai Shanshan took the water and drank it all in one gulp.Putting the bottle aside, Dai Shanshan couldn't sit still: "Aunt Xue, tell me where my mother is checking, I'll go over and have a look." Aunt Xue watched her drink the water, and then told the truth with a bitter face: Her mother was suffering from serious mental illness and had been transferred to another hospital... Dai Shanshan didn't believe it at first, and then Aunt Xue said secretly: "My child , In fact, all of this was arranged by your father, and I came to tell you secretly. Because your mother has treated me well in the past three years, so I tried my best to tell you the truth. Your mother was raped by Dai Shengcai She was forced to be like this, she also suffered a lot, the man wanted to divorce her, and now he was sent to a mental hospital again... I couldn't bear it, so I went to the hospital to wait for you and tell you the truth. Don't tell anyone I've been here, I'll just go through the back door..." At that time, Dai Shanshan's head swelled with a "buzz", and this blow was fatal to her, so she rushed out before Aunt Xue finished speaking.Although Dai Shengcai loves himself very much, he is not polite to others. Dai Shanshan understands this very well.In order to prevent Aunt Xue who secretly told her the truth from being implicated, Dai Shanshan did not mention her a word from the beginning to the end.It was for this reason that even Rock didn't know that Aunt Xue had been to the hospital. Later, Dai Shanshan made a fuss at the medical guidance desk, and after confirming Aunt Xue's words from the chief physician, Dai Shanshan rushed out of the hospital like crazy, and then took a taxi to Dai Shengcai's general manager's office...Actually, Aunt Xue was at the time She didn't go far, she secretly followed in order to see what happened. However, what happened later was obviously beyond Aunt Xue's expectations. No one expected that Dai Shanshan would commit suicide by jumping off the building.Aunt Xue was utterly astonished at the time, watching carefully from the top of the building...Suddenly, a figure from the top of the building floated down, and with a bang, Dai Shanshan landed on the ground, watching the bright red blood slowly flow Aunt Xue was stunned. Later, I saw Dai Shengcai stumbling and running down, kneeling on the ground, crying very sadly.Aunt Xue’s sense of guilt that just surged out of her heart suddenly disappeared, and she even felt a little more relief and pleasure in her heart... Coincidentally, she was seen by the rock when she was standing in the crowd wearing a hat and a mask... Unfortunately, Rock's consciousness is slowly blurring, so he only remembers those eyes. Rock seemed to be in pain, and he stared at Aunt Xue with blood-red eyes: "What does these things have to do with Shanshan? How can you be so confused?" Aunt Xue's face was full of sorrow: "Have you ever thought of my poor granddaughter, my son who died suddenly, and my daughter-in-law who has not been heard from until now! This is all caused by Dai Shengcai, he Damn it, he really deserves to be damned!" His voice was bleeding, and Aunt Xue seemed to have aged 10 years in an instant: "But, but... I didn't know that Shanshan would jump off the building after drinking that water! The man said that the water in the water There are no ingredients, just medicine. He said that after drinking this, his body will be sore, and he will recover after a few days at home. This will make Dai Shengcai mess up, so that he can breathe out the bad breath of the past and collect him for committing crimes. evidence of……" The house fell into an inexplicable silence again. Yan Yan and Aunt Xue had their own concerns. They looked at the dark sky outside the window and sat for a long time... Outside the window, it seemed that Dai Shanshan and Bai Xue were looking at themselves, with resentment and hatred in their eyes. Angry... Yan Yan didn't dare to look any more, he looked away, stared at Aunt Xue's old face, and said in a rough voice, "Now, is the hairpin in your hands?" "The hairpin?" Aunt Xue hesitated, then came back to her senses, and she shook her head slightly: "I'm sure the hairpin was something I lost back then, but I didn't get it back, but put it back in Yiling I want to talk about it after she wakes up...but now the hairpin is gone, and I wonder who stole it?" Aunt Xue was a little agitated and her voice was hoarse. Hearing this, Yan Yan's heart trembled, but more questions were asked: "After so many years, why is the hairpin still in Yi Ling's hands?" Yes, Yi Ling was only one year old when he was stolen. Many, even if a child holds it in his hand, it has been preserved intact after so many years, which is really unbelievable. Aunt Xue shook her head, with a trace of puzzlement and wonder in her eyes: "I remember when I was a child, I sometimes used the hairpin to tease the child. When I went out that day, I remembered clearly that the child fell asleep, and the hairpin was still in the palm of my hand. Li... When I came back, the child was gone, and the house was a mess... Now it seems that the hairpin may have been held by the child in the palm of his hand. As for who put the child away after being abducted, there is no way to know , could it be Yiling's adoptive parents?" When mentioning Yiling's adoptive parents, Yan Yan's eyes could burst into flames. He clenched his fists and said, "That's a pair of beasts, definitely not them." As if remembering something again, Yan Yan's words Turn around: "By the way, when you saw Yiling's adoptive parents that day, you all looked a little strange. I thought you knew each other." Aunt Xue shook her head lightly and sighed: "At that time, I already knew that Yiling was my granddaughter who had been lost for many years, so I went to them secretly and wanted to talk about the situation back then. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, I didn't tell her about my granddaughter. The identity between Yiling and Yiling is only a side-by-side inquiry about some things. For example, who sold Yiling to them back then, what the human trafficker looked like, etc. Maybe these words aroused their vigilance, so they were on guard against me Right. They happened to meet in the lobby that day, and they hurried away with the child." After these words, the doubts of the day were finally solved.However, Yan Yan's heart tightened even more. Yi Ling's life experience has a destination, but what happened to the dead Bai Xue and Shan Shan, and where is the real answer?Rock felt a little helpless, his fists were clenched tightly, and he looked up at the dark sky outside, with a bewildered expression on his face... In the silent room, Aunt Xue suddenly patted her thigh, her voice raised several times: "Oh, I almost forgot a big event, just a few days ago, I ran into someone, it's very strange..." Seeing a glimmer of light, the rock came back to his senses, his eyes widened: "Who? Where did you see it?" Aunt Xue cautiously looked outside, and then quietly replied: "Didn't Wang Cuilian fall ill again on the night you went back to school? Later, Dai Shanshan and I stayed together in the hospital for one night...sleep until one o'clock At the time of the clock, I felt in a daze that something was wrong in the room. I opened my eyes suddenly, but suddenly found a black figure standing in front of the hospital bed... At that time, I was terrified, and when I was about to call someone, the person suddenly I ran away, and I hurriedly chased him out, but there was no one in the hospital corridor." Speaking of it now, Aunt Xue still has lingering fears.She patted her chest and continued: "Turning back to the ward, Dai Shanshan was sleeping soundly on the other bed, and Wang Cuilian seemed to be fine, so I didn't think much about it. I fumbled to pick it up to look at something, but found it was an accessory on the clothes." After a pause, Aunt Xue took out something from her bosom and handed it to Yan Yan. This is a very unique brooch, dark red, with a blue rose in the front and a white diamond inlaid in the back, it looks very dazzling.Holding the rock in his hand, he was in a daze before his eyes. This thing looked familiar, as if he had seen it before?Suddenly, the rock's memory returned to that afternoon, when a woman in a coquettish dress pushed the door in. She walked gently, as if there was a beautiful brooch pinned to her chest, and the dark red roses were particularly eye-catching... No Wrong, this is Sang Hui's jewelry. Thinking of Sang Hui's meaningful smile, Yan Yan was suddenly startled.He suddenly stood up from his seat: "Sang Hui also graduated from medical school, she must know some knowledge of pharmacology, could it be that she did something to Shanshan's mother or Dai Shanshan?" Aunt Xue saw the nervousness of the rock, but now she seemed very calm: "Wang Cuilian and Dai Shengcai were human traffickers in the early years, and how many families were torn apart. They deserve to die; Dai Shanshan is their only daughter, and now she is dead. Yes, the blow to them is also fatal, I think this is retribution for them, and they deserve it!" Hatred can make people lose their way, and Aunt Xue's words made Rock's skin crawl... But everything has a cause and effect, and Dai Shanshan lost her life at such a young age, and she was so innocent... Rock couldn't bear to think about it, Now he has to rush back to the city immediately to look for Sang Hui, because she is a very important person, and he may be able to find the source of the matter from her.
