Chapter 55 Chapter 55: Dong Xi

I thought that Liu Ye would be a little emotional after knowing these things, so I secretly glanced at her out of the corner of my eye, only to find that she was surprisingly calm.Sitting next to Aunt Liu as if nothing had happened, calm and peaceful, her expression was calm, but her eyes were lowered, staring at the ground without making a sound. Aunt Liu looked up at the beads on the coffee table, sighed again, shook her head helplessly, and told us that the beads and tokens were left by Dong Xi at the beginning, and they have been kept in her hands all along. with.At the beginning, Dong Xi told her about the origin of these things, and she told Liu Ye everything she knew, so we must have known it a long time ago.As for what else, maybe Dong Xi didn't say, and she didn't ask, these things have been pressed at the bottom of the box.

Originally, she was still thinking about giving it back to others if she had the chance, after all, it wasn't her own.But for so many years, there has been no news at all, so she kept it in her hands until Liu Ye grew up, and she gave the things to Liu Ye again.Anyway, after all, it can be regarded as left behind by her biological father, so it is more or less a thought. Speaking of this, Aunt Liu couldn't help sighing, and said to us with some guilt, if she had known that this thing would bring trouble to Liu Ye, she would not have given it to Liu Ye, and it would be better to keep it under the bottom of the box , and there will be no more troubles.

Da Ya chuckled, raised his eyebrows, and quickly persuaded: "Aunt Liu, please don't say that, this matter has nothing to do with you at all. If you talk about people nowadays, their consciences are greatly broken. The bad thing is that we accidentally revealed the truth, and the thief missed it! You don’t need to blame yourself, this matter doesn’t depend on you at all. By the way, Auntie, I’m just a trustworthy person. I want to ask, You just said it was Liu Ye's father..." Just saying this, Liu Ye gave Da Ya a hard look. Da Ya quickly changed his words and said, "Oh, it's Dong Xi. When he gave you the beads and the token, did he tell you what the ring and the bone are for?"

When Aunt Liu heard this, she shook her head and told us that when Dong Xi put these things in her place, she kept them and did not ask any further questions.In that era, everyone was so poor that they couldn't even afford to eat, so who would have the mood to ask these questions, that's what happened. Da Ya chuckled, and asked teasingly, "Auntie, is this a token of love?" Before Aunt Liu could say anything, Liu Ye stood beside her with brows bristling, her eyes widened, and she said something to Da Ya to stop talking nonsense. Aunt Liu quickly grabbed Liu Ye, and kept saying that it's okay, tell Liu Ye not to be so fierce all the time, she's not a child at this age, so she can't be so fierce all the time, besides, there's nothing wrong with what Da Ya said. In those days, that was the case, there were people who gave red treasure books, medals, and even handkerchiefs. After I finished speaking, I couldn't help smiling.

As I listened, I wondered in my mind, could it be that Dong Xi is the descendant of "Wu Qu", the sixth son of the Qigong of Xingdi?How else would there be that bead and token?Since it can be given away as a token of love, it means that he also knows the value and weight of this thing.The strange thing is, why is this bead still in the hands of "Wu Qu" and not given to Dorgon?I really can't figure it out. While listening to the old lady's nagging, Liu Ye gritted her teeth at Da Ya.Aunt Liu had no choice but to pet Liu Ye's hair and shook her head slightly. Liu Ye looked back at her mother, and then asked her mother if she had disclosed her whereabouts to others?Or talked about her with someone else?

The old lady was stunned, and immediately felt a little embarrassed, and her face was cloudy and uncertain. After a long time, she seemed to have made up her mind. After a long sigh, she looked at the willow leaves and told us that there was one thing she didn't want to do. She said it, but since it's all said here today, she also confessed everything, whether it has anything to do with this matter, she is not too clear. Speaking of which, it should have been almost two years.One day, she suddenly received a letter. After so many years, no one had ever mailed it to her. She thought it was written by Liu Ye, so she opened it and read it. It turned out that there was no word in it, and it was just copied paper. Wrapped a wad of money, she thought she had made a mistake at the time, but after looking at the address and name of the recipient, it was indeed her name.

Later, she would receive a sum of money every other month, and it never stopped. She couldn't figure out what was going on. She once asked Liu Ye on the sidelines, but seeing Liu Ye's reaction, she knew she was sure of Liu Ye. Did not know.She was thinking about it all the time, but she never figured out who sent the money. "What? Sending money? And this thing? Did it come from Dong Xiyou?" Da Ya spoke quickly, and asked first. The old lady shook her head and told us that she thought about it too, but she really couldn’t believe it. It’s been almost thirty years, and there’s been no news all the time. Why did she suddenly pop up for no reason? What about sending money?Speaking of this, the old lady sighed again and told us that her family has no other relatives and friends at all, and it is impossible for relatives and friends to send it. This incident made her very upset. It's not true that I don't accept it. When I think about it, I can't sleep well.

This incident is really strange. It is said that there is a good thing about the pie falling from the sky, but I didn't expect that there is actually money falling from the sky? My heart was churning, could it really be Dong Xi?But why didn't he make a phone call or make it clear?Could it be that he got married and has something to hide?I also felt sorry for Aunt Liu, so after I found out the address, I would send some money from time to time, just for peace of mind?Can you feel better?This is too mysterious, and I can't figure out what's going on for a while. I suddenly remembered something, so I asked Aunt Liu, are those envelopes still there?

Aunt Liu nodded repeatedly and told us that she didn't throw away all the envelopes. She stood up and fumbled in the cabinet for a long time before she took out a red cloth bag, opened it, and handed us a stack of envelopes. After we spread out these envelopes, we checked the postmark and found that they were from Beijing. After looking at it carefully, I couldn't help being dumbfounded.The postmarks on these envelopes were different, and it was obvious that they were sent from different postal points.I really didn't expect this person to be so cautious in doing things, but the more he was like this, the more suspicious and mysterious he seemed.Who could this person be?What is the purpose?Why send money?

Da Ya looked at it for a long time, frowned, and pulled the pile of envelopes with his hands, jokingly said, this is as good as a spy movie, while Bi Yu is like a ghost, this person is really not simple, he has the potential to be a spy .While talking, Da Ya suddenly stared at Liu Ye, and then asked: "Sister, does anyone know the address of your home?" Liu Ye was taken aback, frowned and thought for a while, finally shook her head, and told us that she had never told anyone about her family, let alone her address, and she should not be her friend. Aunt Liu glanced at us, and smiled helplessly: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. I've thought about this matter not once or twice, and even thought about the manifestation of Buddha. Haha, but I have an intuition that sending money should It's Dong Xi, besides him, I really can't think of anyone else."

After listening to Liu Ye, she snorted coldly: "Unpredictable intentions..." When the old lady heard what Liu Ye said, she sighed at Liu Ye and interrupted Liu Ye so that Liu Ye could not say that. She knew Dong Xi very well. It is impossible for him to break his promise.It's possible that he also has his family now, and he didn't want to disturb the current lives of both parties because of this incident, so he sent some money anonymously, and she could only think so. However, if he was the one who snatched the beads, it would definitely be impossible.If he really wanted the bead, he could ask for it openly, instead of committing a crime of breaking the law to snatch it.He's not that kind of person, it's absolutely impossible. The old lady can’t blame her for saying this, she always thought that we were being followed to snatch the bead.I'm afraid she never dreamed that the real value of this bead is not the bead itself, but the secret hidden behind it.But you can't tell the old lady about this, it will only make the old lady more worried. When the old lady said this, she looked at Liu Ye and slowly stroked Liu Ye's hand: "Ye Zi, I can't blame Mom for this matter, and I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I just don't want these old things to involve you. If it weren't for something wrong with you, I originally planned to be like this in my life, so I won't talk about it." Liu Ye heard what her mother said, but she couldn't say anything, so she hugged her mother and told her mother that it was okay, she understood. I have always felt that there seems to be something wrong with Dong Xi. Suddenly, I thought of a person, and I thought about it in my heart. Third Lord! When talking with Dong Sanye, I heard Dong Sanye said that he seemed to call himself Dong Baixi, Dong Xi, Dong Baixi, with names so similar, it was probably the same person.Moreover, Mr. Dong also said that he had been to the countryside. Although he didn't ask where he went to the countryside or joined the team, he probably was in the Northeast. If this assumption is true, then all the problems will be solved, and the beads and tokens will be easy to say. The beads of Lao Wu Lianzhen, Lao Liu Wuqu, and Lao Qi Pojun were originally in Dorgon's hands, and they were passed on to Dorgon. Dong Sanye's hand is also a matter of course. It is estimated that Dong Sanye and the old lady Liu had a good impression of each other during their long-term production and life when they were young, so they left one of the beads and tokens as tokens of love to Liu Ye's mother. It's just the situation now, shall I say it or not? For a while, I was also a little hesitant. After so many years, I guess Liu Ye's mother has long been used to this kind of single life. Woolen cloth?It was like a pot of water was boiling in my heart. I tossed up and down, weighed it for a long time, and finally held back and didn't say anything.There is still a chance to tell Liu Ye slowly about this kind of thing, let Liu Ye handle it by himself, we are outsiders after all, some words that are too deep or too shallow are not appropriate. Then I talked about Dong Xi for a long time, but I didn't talk about any valuable clues. Seeing that it was getting dark, I hurriedly asked to leave.Seeing that it was so late, the old lady told us to deal with it here for one night and leave early tomorrow morning. I took a look at Da Ya, and had no choice but to lie that we had other things to do this time, and we would come back as a guest another day.After being polite for a long time, Liu Ye finally pushed her mother back into the house and led us downstairs.
