Chapter 12 who are you to me

Mei Qi is dead.He was so bloody and bloody that it was difficult to distinguish his face. A person who loved beauty so much during his life died with such disregard for decency. When Zhou Ziheng arrived, Mei Qi had already been carried into the car, and there was only a pool of blood left on the ground. Wei Qing was also covered in blood all over his face and hands—after Mei Qi jumped down, he didn't know what happened, but he tried to hug her, kiss her, call her name, and said to her: "Okay, I don't know what happened." Let's go, don't cry." —she did not cry any more, and never will again.

The one crying was Wei Qing. When he saw Zi Heng, he greeted him happily as if he was seeing a relative, crying and laughing for a while and said, "You are here. I don't know who else to look for except you. Mei Qi is in Nanjing I don't even have any relatives. I shouldn't have broken up with her. I said, I'm here to return her things. It's an embroidered shoe. She said it wasn't hers. She told me not to leave, saying 'Wei Qing, I'm real' , I don't believe her. I walked down, she jumped down. I watched her jump down, with a 'bang', just jumped down..."

The embroidered shoes... Ziheng only felt the deep sorrow, and the sorrow made his whole body tense up.All tragedies start with three embroidered shoes.What kind of evil did the four of them fall into? He grabbed Wei Qing's arm and asked, "Have you notified Mei Qi's family? Mei Qi's hometown is in Hebei. There are parents and a pair of younger siblings at home. Have you called them?" However, Wei Qing was already delirious, and just said incoherently: "She called my name and said, 'Wei Qing, I'm real', and then she jumped down. I told her, we are finished, I want to go. She jumped She jumped down with a 'bang' sound, so high, as high as the twelfth floor, she just 'bang'..."

Zi Heng only thought that he was overly sad, grabbed him and shook him vigorously, and said in a deep voice: "Wei Qing, calm down, be quiet!" But Wei Qing didn't seem to be able to hear the outside voice at all, he just sank in his heart, still holding Ziheng's hand firmly, and babbled: "Ziheng, I shouldn't have exposed the Gu. I shouldn't have opened that bottle, Let the devil out..." "What bottle? What devil? Wei Qing, wake up!" "Don't you know? Mei Qi raised a Gu, love Gu. She fed it blood, trying to plant it for you. I opened the bottle. I fell into the Gu. I fell into the love that Mei Qi had prepared for you. insanity……"

Zi Heng couldn't help but gasped, staring into Wei Qing's eyes, he found that his eyes had been slackened, completely out of focus.His field of vision had been stained bright red by Mei Qi's blood, and he could never see anything else from now on. Mei Qi died, Wei Qing went crazy, and he and Hong Chen became brothers and sisters. Zhou Ziheng wanted to cry but had no tears.Just when his father Zhou Feng finally came to his senses, his good friend Wei Qing went crazy—could it be that there is a fixed quota in the madhouse, if one comes out, another one must be filled in? If someone is destined to be crazy, then he would rather that person be himself.That way, you don't have to face your beloved sister anymore.younger sister!

He lost Mei Qi and Luo Hongchen at the same time! mental hospital. Zhou Gong and Zhou Po and Zi Heng Bing parted ways, and they couldn't wait to rush to meet their long-lost son Zhou Feng. We lived in the same city, but we couldn't bear to see each other for twenty years. As soon as the old couple walked into the gate of the mental hospital, they couldn't help but burst into tears.When Zhou Feng saw his elderly parents, he was also greatly agitated. He knelt down in front of them, crying, "Dad, Mom, you are getting old!" Zhou Gong and Zhou Po couldn't bear it anymore, hugged their son and burst into tears. This son who had been lost for more than 20 years has finally woken up. In his lifetime, he can finally hear him call "Dad", "mom".

Zhou Po coughed so loudly that the cuckoo was crying blood: "Son, don't blame Mom for being cruel, cough cough, I have never come to see you for twenty years. Cough, I am afraid that your son will know that you are a father, cough, afraid Leaking the wind. Cough, Mom has no choice but to be cruel and pretend that you are... dead!" Zhou Feng understood what was on his mind, but his manner and speech were always more exaggerated and rigid than ordinary people, he kowtowed and said, "Dad, Mom, it is my son who is not filial. He has never taken care of you for so many years, and instead made you worry about him. From now on, my son must make up for you!"

The family of three was finally reunited without any estrangement.Although they haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, they are close relatives after all.That feeling of being connected by blood makes even the air vibrate.They chattered about their feelings about the farewell, and the personnel changes in the past twenty years.Zhou Gong looked up, pointed and said, "Ah Heng is here. Look, how old your son is now, and how promising he is." Zhou Po cried out distressedly: "Ah Heng, where have you been, cough cough, why are you so tired?" Zhou Ziheng took care of Mei Qi's affairs temporarily and arranged for Wei Qingcai to rush over. He was physically and mentally exhausted, but when he saw his grandparents, he still had to force a smile on his face, and insisted, "I'm stuck in a traffic jam all the way. talent……"

Before he finished speaking, he couldn't help being surprised when he saw his father—Zhou Feng was refreshed. Although he was still wearing a hospital gown, he was full of energy and clear-eyed. He was already a normal person.But, just overnight, he became old, and even had gray hair on his sideburns! Ziheng sighed deeply. He had only heard about Li Zicheng’s graying overnight in history textbooks, and it was because of anxiety; now, he really saw it, but it was because of waking up—with the return of his father’s memory, those things he lost The lost time has also been found like an old horse knowing the way. One night for my father is equal to several years for others. He is rapidly aging and haggard.

Maybe, in the future, he will repay those springs, summers, colds and heats that he ignored, and bear all the vicissitudes of life.At that time, will he still feel that his sobriety is a thing to be thankful for? Duke Zhou pushed Ziheng in front of his son like a treasure: "Feng, in the past 20 years, thanks to Ah Heng, he has already repaid our old couple for you. Ah Heng is very capable, and he is already an employee of a big company. Chairman, and bought us a villa. Over the past few years, I have paid for your hospitalization expenses with the money earned by Ah Heng. In a few days, you will be able to go through the discharge procedures and come back with us. home."

Zi Heng now finally understands why his grandparents live so frugally despite asking him so much cash every month. It turned out that the money was used to pay the hospitalization and treatment expenses for his father.He also knelt down, walked a few steps on his knees, came to his father, and called: "Father, I am Ziheng, do you still recognize me?" "Ah Heng..." Zhou Feng looked at his son intently, as if reading God's scripture on his face, "You have grown up so much. Since I woke up this morning, I have been thinking about you. I remember how you were when you were a child, and in a blink of an eye, you are already an adult. Finally, I have not let Feiyan down. Feiyan must be very comforted by her spirit in the sky." Mentioning Concubine Yan, Zhou Gong and Zhou Po's face darkened, they looked at each other, and hesitated to speak. "Father," Ziheng called cautiously. He was still not sure about his father's sobriety. He didn't know how far his memory had recovered. He couldn't help but test whether he was really all right. When did I marry my mother? Remember where my mother gave birth to me?" "Your mother and I are not married." Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng answered like this.He looked at Zhou Ziheng, with the confusion and frankness characteristic of a newly awakened mental patient, and said clearly, "You are not my biological son." "What? Dad..." Zi Heng almost thought that his father's madness had relapsed, or that some areas still hadn't fully recovered. However, Zhou Feng said very clearly: "Feiyan and I had a marriage contract, but we have never been able to get married. Back then, when I finally found Feiyan, she had just given birth to you. She entrusted you to me , want me to raise you to grow up..." Zhou Ziheng jumped up before his father finished speaking. Zhou Gong and Zhou Po yelled, "Ah Heng, where are you going?" However, Zhou Ziheng couldn't care less about stopping, he just shouted: "I'll go to Hongchen..." The embroidery building on fire. Although the fire in the bedroom was extinguished, the fire in Hongchen's heart was still burning, moreover, it was burning hotter.Her eyes sparkled strangely, and she yelled at her grandma and grandpa: "Let me out, let me out! I want to see my father, I want to find myself! I want to see them!" However, Luo Changming was as stubborn as her, and shouted in a louder voice than her: "Don't even think about it! You want to go out, unless you step over me! How dare you set fire to it and turn against you! When your mother betrayed me, now , are you going to betray me too?" They are all crazy, gradually unable to distinguish the present from the past, Luoxiu from the world of mortals.Under Luo Changming's cursing, Zhou Feng and Zhou Ziheng became one person, and Luo Xiu and Luo Hongchen also merged into one, confusing them. Luo Changming cursed: "You set fire! You jumped out of the window! You have the ability! Well, even if you really set fire to this house, I will not let you out! I would rather never have a daughter than Will let you marry that bastard Zhou Feng!" Hong Chen was also going crazy, crying and shouting: "Grandpa, why are you so cruel? What kind of resentment do you and the Zhou family have? Why do you have to retribution on our generation? What's wrong with mother? Why did you have to suffer for you? What's wrong with me? Why do you hate me so much? Why did my father take revenge on you? What did you do to Feiyan?" Speaking of Feiyan, Luo Changming really went crazy. He raised his crutches and hit his granddaughter heavily, knocking her down to the ground. He still didn't give up. He rushed forward and kicked, cursing: "Concubine Yan! Feiyan! I tell you to mention Feiyan to me! I tell you to fight against me!" Grandma was terrified, desperately hugging the crutches, crying and shouting: "Old man, wake up, this is Hong Chen, you will kill Hong Chen!" Luo Changming cursed: "I just want to beat her to death. If I beat her to death, I won't be ashamed. I'll go find that kid surnamed Zhou!" This world is really crazy, black and white are reversed, time is chaotic, today and yesterday have completely overlapped, and it is no longer possible to distinguish Luo Xiu from Luo Hongchen, Zhou Feng from Zhou Ziheng.Everything seems to be history repeating itself. The two generations of them were pushed into an endless vortex by the hand of fate, bumping and struggling, unable to survive. Hong Chen was crying and shouting, while avoiding her grandfather's crutches, she felt that she was going to faint again, at this moment, she heard a knock on the door, and heard Zi Heng shouting outside the door: "Open the door, open the door! Hong Chen , Hongchen, are you there?" "Zi Heng!" Hong Chen yelled, rushed over recklessly, and pulled the door latch.After all, grandpa is too old, if Hongchen resists desperately, he has no power to stop him. Hong Chen finally saw Zhou Ziheng again.How much she wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry, but she held back.That person is no longer her lover, but her brother.Brother, what a cruel family relationship! She looked at him, looked at him sadly: "Ziheng, why, you are my brother?" "No, no!" Zi Heng shook Hong Chen excitedly, and shouted in ecstasy: "Hong Chen, we are not brother and sister, no!" Hong Chen stared at him blankly, as if he didn't hear it, and didn't seem to believe it. Zi Heng shouted even louder: "My father, no, it's your father. Your father is ready. He told me that I am not his biological son! My father is not your father. I am only Feiyan's son, not his. Yes. He and my mother are just lovers, not husband and wife. They are not married! I am not born to them! My father only married your mother! I was born to my mother, and you and I have no blood relationship at all. No!" Although Zhou Ziheng said "your father", "my father", "your mother" and "my mother" like tongue twisters, Hong Chen immediately understood, and she shouted: "Aren't you my brother? Really? Really? So, who is your father?" "I don't know, I didn't ask, I didn't have time to ask. My dad, ah, it's your dad, your dad is just right, the doctor doesn't let him talk too much, asks him to rest well, don't let him use his brain too much, let's go again tomorrow Look at him. The doctor said that in a few days, he can be approved to leave the hospital after he is proved to be completely stable." "Really? Really?" Hongchen's tears flowed down her face, she was so happy that it didn't seem real, "My father is healed and will be discharged from the hospital soon. We are not brother and sister, no." People say that blessings come without pairs, and misfortunes never come singly, but today, Luo Hongchen, who had been with misfortune since childhood, received two of the greatest and greatest news in the world at the same time. She finally threw herself into Zi Heng's arms, almost fainting from happiness: "That's great, Zi Heng, that's great. We will never be separated again, never again!" However, their happiness did not affect Luo Changming at all. He rushed over with a cane, pulled Hong Chen away abruptly, pointed at Zhou Zi and cursed: "Boy, listen to me, no matter where you are from, you are wild!" Zhong, get the hell out of here immediately, and never step into our Luo family again!" "Grandpa!" Hong Chen called, "Please don't stop us. Back then, your blocking brought tragedy to my mother. Now, do you want to let this tragedy happen again?" "It was because you couldn't stop your mother that the tragedy happened and your mother died tragically!" Luo Changming interrupted angrily, "There is no good man named Zhou, whether he was born by that bastard Zhou Feng or not, as long as His surname is Zhou, so he can't be with you! I will never let the daughter of the Luo family have any contact with the bastard of the Zhou family!" "What if I must date?" Hongchen asked fiercely, "Grandpa, back then your tyranny forced mother to run away from home, and she would rather jump out of the window; now, do you still insist on your own opinion? Then I will definitely be like Like my mother, choose to leave you!" "You dare to threaten me? I raised you so big, you want to threaten me? You beast!" Seeing that Luo Changming's crutch was about to wave again, Ziheng pulled Hongchen violently: "Hongchen, run!" The two quickly escaped from the crutches, ran downstairs, and went straight to the street. After making sure that they were safe, they breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at each other.Laughing and laughing, hugging and crying together. Looking at the tears on Hong Chen's face and the injuries all over his body, Zi Heng said distressedly: "I came too late, you have suffered a lot in the past two days." "I don't care!" Hongchen hugged Ziheng's neck tightly, and couldn't help repeating his mother's vow back then, "As long as I can finally be with you, I won't be afraid of death!" Along the way, Zhou Ziheng drove with only one left hand, while his right hand was always tightly holding Hong Chen's hand, unwilling to let go. This moment has not come easily, he is so afraid that the hard-won happiness will fly away like bubbles and shatter, only by holding Hong Chen's hand tightly can he calm down his heart and believe that he is really with her up. She is still his sister in name, and he can give her double love—brother-like and lover-like.He will do his best to pamper her and make up for the twenty-three years of her lack of family affection; he will satisfy all her demands, reasonable or unreasonable; he will never quarrel with her; he will tolerate everything, just like a brother tolerates his sister; he is infinitely loving , just like a husband loves his wife... "Are you ready?" He turned his head and smiled at her, overflowing with happiness, "You follow me like this, and you can never look back." She didn't answer, just smiled and held his hand tighter. "Hold your hand and grow old with you." This ancient poem was printed in their hearts at the same time.They couldn't help looking at each other and smiling.It turns out that falling in love means that two people will think about the same thing in their hearts and know each other. In front of Coral Garden. Mei Qi seemed to have been waiting for a long time, when she saw the car stopped, she came up to her with a smile, and blamed: "Zi Heng, you just came back, you made me worry for a long time, thinking that I took the wrong way." Zi Heng was shocked, and blurted out: "Mei Qi, why are you here? Aren't you dead?" Mei Qi was stunned for a moment, then the shadow suddenly dissipated, leaving only blood on the ground, dripping bright red.But soon it also diffused, seeping into the ground and disappearing. Zhou Ziheng was terrified and unable to move - he missed the moment when Mei Qi was going to die, and he failed to see her off; however, she was so infatuated that she rushed to bid him farewell and let him see her face with his own eyes. die. He was very clear in his heart that she was dead, but her figure was so vivid just now, with long hair flowing, plain face and red lips, wearing a cotton shirt and flowery skirt, very bright and beautiful. ——When I think about it, it was her when we first met three years ago.That was the time when they were most in love. It turned out that he had always remembered it deeply. It turns out that once you've loved, it's fine to end it anyway, but you can't forget it forever. He spent a lot of time with Mei Qi.Three years, more than a thousand days and nights, even if they didn't stay together every day, he knew that Mei Qi always had him in her heart.Even if I try my best sometimes, it's because I love him. The tears flowed down from the bottom of my stomach. Hong Chen was surprised: "Zi Heng, what are you talking about? Where is Mei Qi? Who died?" "Mei Qi is dead." Zi Heng said in a daze, feeling a great grief in his heart.Mei Qi is dead.The girl who used to share the bed with him and had skin-to-skin contact jumped to her death at a young age. She jumped from the twelfth floor with a "bang", such a decisive way to die.Just now, he was reunited with Hong Chen, and the joy of regaining his loss filled his heart, so much so that he actually forgot about Mei Qi.Did Mei Qi show up to blame him? He remembered what Wei Qing had told him—"Wei Qing, I am real."—Before Mei Qi died, she painstakingly said that she was real, and then died at Wei Qing's feet.Maybe she was eager to catch up with him, using the fastest way to catch up with him? Then her soul rushed to the Coral Garden to wait for her death without stopping. The sky suddenly seemed to be overcast.Only then did Zi Heng realize that it was dusk again.Mei Qi is most afraid of dusk.She jumped off the building before dawn, but Hun Ling'er waited until dusk and met him before she was willing to leave.She loves him so much! She loved them both.Can't let go of the two of them. Both are true. Can't keep both. Before Mei Qi committed suicide, her heart had been divided into two halves, one half was nostalgia, the other half was confession. She died with a lot of thoughts, tossing and turning restless. Zi Heng's heart is also full of thoughts, tossing and turning restlessly.He looked at Hongchen and said sadly, "Hongchen, I haven't had time to tell you——Mei Qi died, she jumped off a building, just before dawn this morning." "What?" Hong Chen was also stunned.She suddenly felt sincere fear, not only because of Mei Qi's death, but also because when the shadow of death approached, she clearly felt the threat.Just now they were immersed in the ecstasy of loving each other, but at this moment, the joy suddenly dissipated, replaced by a deep sense of surprise.Mei Qi is dead.When she and Zi Heng finally hugged each other hand in hand, Mei Qi died.Will such love be blessed? The short distance from the garage to the door of the house is only a few steps away, but Zi Heng and Hong Chen are struggling to walk, as if they are walking on Mei Qi's blood. As soon as the crescent moon bent in the sky, the crooked teeth were crumbling. They didn't seem to be rising up, but they seemed to be cut out of paper and pasted on.A few clumps of bamboo are sparsely planted in the coral garden, which is blown by the wind and groans, which is exactly the situation of "buying the soul of poetry in the cold moon" in Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Ziheng and Hongchen held hands tightly, looked at each other, and couldn't help but took a deep breath. Zhou Gong and Zhou Po have already returned, and are discussing with the third sister about preparing a bedroom for their son Zhou Feng. The TV was turned on, and it was a live broadcast of the final of the "Twelve Beauties of Jinling".The audience applauded and whistled excitedly, and the scene was very lively.The host was about to announce the results, the contestants held their breaths, and the tense air was about to pierce through the glass wall and rush off the stage. Ziheng and Hongchen are even more nervous than contestants.This is the grandest show and the most grand event in their lives. They cheer each other up with their eyes, as if they are not facing their family members, but tens of millions of spectators.After stepping across, he announced loudly, not without pretentiousness: "Grandpa, grandma, this is the world of mortals, I brought her back!" The three people in the room who were discussing in full swing turned their heads and stared at Hongchen, as if they were looking at a visitor from outside the sky. The bravado of the TV host was particularly harsh: "The most exciting moment has come! Now, the winners and runners-up of the 'Jinling Twelve Beauties' beauty pageant are in my hands. The winner is, and the winner is—after our advertisement See!" Ziheng and Hongchen looked at each other anxiously.After going through a lot of hardships to get back together, they desperately hope to get the blessing of their elders. However, in the face of this future granddaughter-in-law and granddaughter who came to the door for the first time, Zhou Gong and Zhou Po did not show due enthusiasm and love, although this was the first time they saw the world of mortals, and it had been verified that the two of them were in harmony. There is no brotherhood, but I feel uneasy in my heart. Especially Zhou Gong, with his half bottle of jealous physiognomy, could read the shadow of disaster from Hongchen's face at a glance: this girl's brows and eyes are too sparse, and the edges and corners are too sharp, so she is not a blessed face. It shocked Zhou Gong and Zhou Po too deeply. Zhou Gong couldn't help but think of Luo Xiu's first visit to Zhou's house. He was also in such a state of embarrassment and fortitude. His eyes were burning with the enthusiasm to go all out. In the end, he burned himself into a pile of ashes, and brought Twenty years of Zhou Feng's madness. Now, will this all happen again? Zhou Po laid Hong Chen down in the guest room, said something like "have a good rest, just treat it as your own home", and then pulled her grandson out. Although Zhou Feng had already made it clear that Zi Heng was not his biological son, and had no blood relationship with Zhou Gong and Zhou Po, on the contrary, Luo Hongchen was their biological granddaughter. But in the eyes of the old man, he still only thinks that Aheng is the closest.This is the grandson I brought up with my own hands for thirty years of hard work. No matter whether Zhou family's blood flows in his veins or not, he is my heart and soul.Seeing the grandson going to go the same way as the son again, fascinated by love, how can it not make people feel worried. Zhou Po coughed loudly, while admonishing worriedly: "Oh, there are so many girls in the world, cough cough, why do you have to get entangled with the Luo family's daughter? Cough cough, listen to grandma, or be with her Break up, let's find another one. Cough cough, it's Mei Qi, cough, it's pretty good." Mei Qi... A scar has been drawn across his heart. He owes Mei Qi too much, but if Mei Qi is alive and makes him choose again, he will still only be with Hong Chen.He smiled miserably and said firmly: "Grandma, I'm serious this time, and I won't be half-hearted again. There are thousands of women in the world, and I only love Hongchen one! I've decided on her!" When Hongchen heard this promise through the door, his heart ached, and he couldn't help but shed tears.No matter what Wei Ziheng has experienced, hearing his words now, everything is worth it. At the end of the advertisement, the host's excited screams announcing the winner of the competition came from the TV outside——in the end, it was Lin Daiyu who won.
