When I met Kui Yuan many years later, I no longer knew him.He was an adult, with a big Adam's apple, a mustache, a suit with curled edges, leather shoes turned upside down, which smelled like shampoo, and he was carrying a black leather bag whose zipper couldn't be closed.He said he was Kuiyuan, Ma Zhaoqing's youngest son, why don't you know Uncle Shaogong?You see you remember hahaha! It took me a long time to remember a child's face from long ago, and check out one or two similar lines with this strange face now.I also recognized a letter he showed. Yes, it was written by me. It was written to the review a few years ago, talking about a question about Chinese.

He said he missed me and came to the city specifically to look for me.I was surprised and asked him how he could find it.He said no more, he had a hard time finding it all the way.As soon as I got on the pier, I asked everywhere where I lived, and no one knew who I asked.Finally, I asked where the city government was, but no one knew.He got angry and asked where the provincial government was.There was only one person who pointed in the direction.I laughed, you can find me if you want, what do you want to do with the city government and the provincial government?He said that he would come out once or twice a year, and he played in Wuhan, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen.He has experience going out.When he said that, he answered me.

He did not clarify whether he really approached the government.But he complained about my phone and said it must be broken and he couldn't get through.In fact, I later found out that he didn't have my phone number at all, and God knows what he was calling. In the end, he asked for a taxi and spent fifty yuan, almost all the money left on him, to find the university I was in.He didn't know the car prices here, and if he ran into a driver with malicious intentions, he must have been taken advantage of and killed. Of course it doesn't matter, he has never regarded money as something outside of him.In short, he contacted the government, made a phone call, took a small car, and did everything a big man should do before meeting an acquaintance of mine who led him to my home.He said that he couldn't find me if he didn't believe it, and that was exactly what happened. The miracle of a long-distance raid on my house was completed without any effort, and another young man I didn't know was brought along.It’s all right now, he’s home, he took off his coat and watch, shoes and socks, rubbed the sweat from his feet, his eyes wandered around, he was surprised that I didn’t have a leather sofa, a right-angle flat color TV, and no colorful spray-painted walls Dimming spotlights with face and mood, and two-channel karaoke with laser speakers-his knowledge of urban life is much richer than mine.I said that the cost of laser audio is too high, and a disc costs forty or fifty yuan.He corrected my mistake, what can I say, a good disc costs at least one or two hundred.Did I say the price has gone up?He said it has always been like this.I said unconvinced that a friend of mine bought it two days ago

That's the price, it's a genuine disc.He said that yours is not three D's, it's not digital. People who really play audio systems don't need that? I don't understand 3D, and I dare not talk about it in depth, so I have to acquiesce in his guidance. After taking a shower, he put on my clothes and said with a smile that he knew long ago that he didn't need to bring a change of clothes. He told his family, who is Uncle Shaogong?When you come to him, are you afraid that you will have no clothes, no food, no job?Relying on parents at home, relying on friends when going out... As he said this, his hand had already patted my shoulder affectionately.

I knocked his hand off. I said that things are not that simple, but let's stay here first. I took them to a hotel to stay.When registering, I found that his surname is no longer Ma, and the surname on the deceased ID card has been changed to Hu. Only then did I know that after his father died, his mother could not support so many cubs, so he gave him away. One of his My brother and a sister also gave away.I also learned that among them, the adopter has no right to inherit property before the "pressing". Pressing characters is a formal human ceremony, held after the funeral of the stepfather, and the elders of the clan sing the name of the stepfather, the name of the step-grandfather, the name of the step-grandfather's father, the name of the step-grandfather's grandfather, the name of the step-grandfather Grandfather's grandfather's father's name... Singing all the father's names that can be traced back as far as possible is to let the adoptive inherit the ancestral property and prevent him from returning to the original family with property or land in the future.In their view, names are sacred, and the names of dead people have a mysterious power, which can suppress evil spirits and punish unfilial people. At the age of seventeen, he was still working in the fields. In March last year, he fell ill and was bedridden, coughing up phlegm and blood.I didn't expect him to die and come back to life... What do you think is going on?His eyes widened in surprise.What he meant was that he hadn't made it through yet, and he hadn't obtained the ownership of that house yet.

So he couldn't keep waiting, he had to go into the city and find another way out.
