Chapter 6 Chapter Six

Why is every child an angel? If you have been to an orphanage ward, you can understand that not every child is qualified to be a little angel. I refuse to hold that child. I heard Shou Lin muttering: "Our love is really limited." Half of his anger disappeared instantly. After completing all the formalities, I made a request. Anyway, the child has no name or surname. In memory of Yao Jing, the name has the word Jing in it. Shou Lin shook his head, "It's not interesting, it's not that she has no relatives." Really, we are depressed, Yao Jing is not alone, she has parents, husband, sisters, and even...a daughter.

After this is done, I put down a big stone. On an unexpected occasion, I met Shi Qi. As soon as he saw me, he immediately left the people around him and came over. People who don't know the inside story will really think that he is very important to me. This time I was very cold to him.His affectionate and unruly heartiness may be all pretended, and he doesn't know how to cherish the feelings Yao Jing gave him in private. "Why are you ignoring me?" His voice was low, full of reproach and coquettish. Kung fu is seasoned, and you are used to it on the screen, practice makes perfect, and it will never be disadvantageous to outsiders like us.

I blurted out: "I'm disappointed in you." He froze, then laughed. I also laugh.I can say such a stupid thing, someone let me down?deserve it. Who told me to hope for irrelevant people. I said straightly, "You shouldn't spread Yao Jing's secrets around." He knew immediately what I was referring to, and immediately fell silent.After a while, he said, "I was drunk that day." "What's that kid's name? Where does he live now?" "I have no idea." "It's too late now." I mocked him. "I really don't know." Shi Qi was very anxious, "Yao Jing drank too much overnight, and told me, I never dared to ask her if it was true or not."

All drunk. I asked, "What did she say?" "She said I was young, and she said that if she had kept her daughter with her back then, that child would have been around my age." Shi Qi talked about Yao Jing, showing an intoxicated expression again. I sighed, "What happened next?" "She never mentioned it again after that." "You didn't ask either?" "It doesn't matter to me, why should I ask?" he said bluntly. I stared at him for a while, with mixed feelings, and sighed. "What's the matter?" Shi Qi pulled me and asked with concern.

I shake my head. "You man." "How about me?" He was very anxious, as if he was afraid that I would misunderstand him. I really don't know which part of him is real and which part is fake. Only Yao Jing can distinguish such a perfect acting skill. "I was still threatened by Wang Yu because of that slip of the tongue." He hurriedly explained. "Okay." I gently pressed his hand. When I turned my head, it was Shou Lin. When Shou Lin saw Shi Qi, it was like meeting enemies, and he was extremely jealous. I hurriedly laughed, "Why are you here, this reception must send out 7,000 posts."

Shou Lin pushed me away, pointed at Shi Qi, "Leave my fiancée." Shi Qi wiped his nose with the back of his hand, unable to hide his old-fashioned mockery of Shou Lin. Immediately, I realized that Shou Lin had collapsed on my platform, so I said angrily, "Shou Lin, don't be so childish." This enraged him even more, he pulled me up, "Let's go now." It was Shi Qi's turn, thinking that he was going to hurt me, and cut Shou Lin's arm with a karate posture. I immediately realized that in the eyes of others, this is not two men fighting for one woman.

I was shocked, "Don't do this, don't do this!" It was too late to say it, Shi Qi had a bewilderment on his face, and he had already made a mark. He couldn't bear it anymore, and punched Shou Lin. On a well-dressed lady, knock over the cocktail in someone else's hand. Everyone was in an uproar. I immediately helped Shou Lin up, "Don't hit him, don't hit him, I'll go with you." I pulled him to escape from the stairs like a refugee. Shou Lin was still struggling, unconvinced, and turned his anger on me. I let go of him, spread my arms, and said out loud, "Look at this Minnesota State University journalism Ph.D. look!"

Only then did he calm down slowly. "Go get a beer, come." He threw me away without saying a word, reached out to call a taxi, and left. I stood on the street and felt very tasteless.The moon shines on my heart, what evil do I have towards Shi Qi?Shou Lin didn't have time to blame me. One boyfriend can't handle it. Some women have several at a time, and they don't know how many geniuses they have. I laughed at myself, wandering in the street, the pair of high heels on my feet got tighter, and I felt that misfortunes never come singly. The next day I actively made an appointment with Mr. Zhu.

He refused to come to the city. I begged again and again and agreed to pick him up, but he still refused to come out of the mountain, so I had to visit him in person. I called Shi Qi out to be the driver, but I didn't expect him to agree immediately. Riding in his car really satisfies vanity, his driving skills are completely professional, no matter the streets, alleys, nowhere, as long as you can name it, he will get it, and the driving time is half of the usual time. When we arrived, Mr. Zhu was having lunch. I had eaten earlier, so I accompanied him with a cup of tea.Shi Qi didn't come in, he was waiting for me outside.

Mr. Zhu asked me casually: "Is that your boyfriend?" There was a plate of strange side dishes on his dining table, a piece of black and gray ash with many legs, it was seafood, and it had a fishy smell. "What is this?" I wondered. "Drunk crab. Why doesn't your boyfriend come in?" "That's not my boyfriend, that's Shi Qi." He was startled, raised his head, his usually dull eyes suddenly lit up, looked at me carefully for a while, his eyes converged, and he continued to eat his drunk crab. How can such a strange fishy thing be served with food? This kind of eating culture is really unbearable.

"As for people like Shi Qi, the farther you stay away, the better." I said straightforwardly: "I know this, I am absolutely within my power." He seemed relieved, "Why did you come to me?" "You must know that Yao Jing has a daughter?" He was startled. I knew the answer immediately. "Why didn't she leave her fortune to her daughter?" I asked. "No need." Mr. Zhu replied very simply. Who is this child adopted to?How are things?How old are you this year?Is it pretty?With whom did Yao Jing give birth to her?Does she live in this city?One hundred thousand questions came one after another. "Don't ask again, and I won't answer you if you ask again." "You can trust me." "I don't want to mention her sad things again." He kept his mouth shut. The old maid came out again with a plate of gray and white vegetables, and a strong stench came over, which could suffocate people to death! I pinched my nose, "What is it?" "Stinky tofu and steamed edamame." The old man stretched out his chopsticks as if he had found a treasure. I couldn't take it anymore and moved the chair back two steps. I didn't wait for his order to evict the guest, so I stood up and said goodbye.He won't say anything more. When I came out, I saw Shi Qi playing wildly with the neighbor's dog, rolling on the grass. I blew a loud whistle to them, and both the man and the dog stood up and pricked up their ears. I couldn't help laughing. Shi Qi hit me in a somersault, his whole body seemed to have endless energy, this strange animal that is half a child and half a beast, if you don't touch his soft fur, he will eat people. "Any news?" he asked. "Look how dirty you are," I said. He stared at me blankly, "Yao Jing often says that about me too." I put my hands in my pockets, "It's not surprising, every woman has motherhood." He asked again: "Does Yao Jing have a daughter?" "It is confirmed that there is." Shi Qi had a longing look on his face, "I don't know if she looks like Yao Jing?" I couldn't help asking: "Do you know what Yao Jing's real name is?" When Shi Qi heard this, he immediately blamed: "You people who read too much love to search for the root of the matter, dig up the history of your lover 800 years ago and study it. Is it worth it or not? What points should be given? This is love. I'm not confused, I can tell you that no matter what her name is, I love her just the same." Shi Qi has always had his way, and his primitive, intuitive and desperate feelings can indeed make people dizzy.But he didn't intend to spend his whole life with anyone, so why bother to investigate the origin of the spark that appeared in his life in an instant. Of course Yao Jing also saw this. Shi Qi is not magnanimous, he just has no patience to know Yao Jing's past. This is not enough for Yao Jing, she needs someone who is qualified to know.The man who deserves to forgive truly forgives her even though she has done nothing wrong. Only God forgives sinners. When I was young, I went to the chapel with my mother to watch believers being baptized, while the choir was singing: "White is whiter than snow, whiter than snow, the precious blood washes me, makes me whiter than snow..." I kept singing, time and time again Repeat, listen to the heart suddenly calm down, gradually moved, eyes full of tears, only God can forgive sinners, but people, people only forgive themselves. Yao Jing couldn't even forgive herself. "What are you thinking?" Shi Qi asked me, "I like your blank expression. Does everyone who is engaged in writing have this expression?" I woke up from the dream and laughed. "Take me home." I said. He murmured, "If it wasn't for the announcement, I wouldn't have let you go home." "Just save yourself some trouble." I smiled wryly. "How can you have a boring fiancé?" "He thinks you're even more boring," I said. "What's so good about him, he just needs to study for a few more years." Shi Qi was suddenly very melancholy. "But? Books are hard to read." "Nonsense, it's not difficult if you have a chance." Shi Qi said. "You also have a chance now. With so much money, many small universities are willing to accept you," I laughed, "Why don't you go?" "I won't tell you." "Reading also talks about seeds." "You seem to like him very much." "Well, of course." "People like you are so sensible and fall in love?" "People like us still eat and go to the toilet." I smiled. "Have you found Jing's daughter? I want to see her." He said. "Find her and don't let her see you." "Gah?" "You are the number one dangerous person." He smiled smugly again, wiping his nose. This person's emotions are the same for a moment, changing rapidly, whoever is with him will not have a good life, I really don't understand why Wang Yu is so reluctant to part with him. When I got home, I found my sister-in-law. "Hi." She said, "I have made an appointment with Zhao Yifen and Zhao Yue'e." I said, "We must dig that girl out?" "yes" "It's too late to stop now." "No," Sister Editor said, "I've left my job and have nothing to worry about. I have to be a good reporter and find out all the details. Fortunately, this is an incident that does not involve political or commercial secrets. , otherwise it will be very difficult and even life-threatening.” "Will the two ladies come out?" "Ken, it's very generous. I persuaded them so that they couldn't refuse." Everyone has talent for everyone.I know a very wretched woman, but her handwriting!Beautiful and bold, it is comfortable to look at.Who dares to look down on anyone? "What time is the appointment?" "Sunday at noon." She mentioned a location, which was the busiest Chinese teahouse, a place where there was no water, and the noise was so loud that it would affect the safety of the eardrums. The career of a reporter was not easy. My sister and I fought against the lights at night to record all the plots that happened during the day. Those records, like novels, have adjectives, dialogues, and feelings, but they almost don't add a chapter. I said, "Sister Editor, it was also written out of sequence." "Don't dream." "We also spent a lot of effort." "Ten years of hard work is extraordinary." I was very melancholy, so I had to bow my head and write quickly. The two of us rustled on the paper, like insects crawling on the leaves, and the writing was out of control. When I looked up, I looked at the clock.It's already dinner time, and my back hurts. I stretch. Professional writers are hard to do. The editor is still working hard, I am embarrassed to disturb her, and suddenly wish for a cigarette. In the hazy dusk, under the tired state of mind, it aroused many thoughts in me. Shi Qi asked: People like you also fall in love? It means that we are afraid of thieves at the front door and ghosts at the back door, love ourselves everywhere, and cannot love boldly at all. I smile wryly.yes. Before I met Shou Lin, I also fell in love once, a feeling that was drowned by reason before it blossomed. The other party was an executive at the highest position in the company, who didn't look like a movie star, because it was never believed that a man needs to rely on a face or a figure to win.He is noble in appearance, intelligent, well-educated, quick-witted, willing to take responsibility, and his talent comes from the heart, making him the most beautiful man. I think he can see that whenever he talks to me, I am not only in awe, but also dare not be naughty, and almost fail to answer in classical Chinese, the admiration in my eyes is irresistible. When I was younger, I was bolder than now.Often when nothing happened, I ran to his office, leaned against the door frame, with my hands folded behind my back, like a primary school student, just laughed and said, "How are you?" He didn't drive me away either, the two of them faced each other for three minutes, I was smacking, he was generous, and then I left. Didn't even drink a cup of coffee, let alone hold hands or something. It doesn't matter whether he has a wife or not. At that time, even hearing his name was very leisurely, and he sighed deeply, wishing very much to die in his arms. If he died in his arms, he would take care of the funeral affairs and take care of everything, thinking about it would often make his eyes red unconsciously.Isn't this the highest, deepest and greatest loneliness. In him the weary and heavy laden seek rest. To this day, I still remember the partition of his office, the light on his large desk every morning, and the neat and inconspicuous suit on his body. We all long to be cared for and loved, and at this point, we are all vulnerable. In the end, I was disappointed too many times, so I had to love myself, what a pity. Covering my eyes with my hands, I lay on the sofa and felt my hands wet.Did I cry, why? Nameless tears are the most painful, and the grievances accumulated in the bottom of my heart are usually covered by a mask of laughter, and they will burst out at the right time. "Sako, Sako." "Don't talk to me." "What are you thinking?" I wipe the tear away with my fingers, but it seeps out slowly and involuntarily. "What's wrong?" I laugh with tears, the laughter is true, and the tears are also true. "Thinking about all the bad things." "Don't think about it, you'll die if you think about it. Come on, go eat, go dance, go play, goof around for another day, come on." We finally saw the Zhao sisters again. The tea house was so noisy that they had to straighten their throats to speak, shouting out every sentence. I turned on the tape recorder.After talking with them, I opened the car and listened to the tape carefully. The content was very complicated. After sorting out, I tried to record every sentence as much as possible. The following is a summary of our one-hour dialogue. Zhao Yifen came on stage: "Here comes a plate of fried noodles with shredded pork. The noodles are slightly fried. The kitchen here is good. Yue'e, don't you like fried kidneys? Add a platter and some dim sum, and it's almost there." It's amazing, people who can eat so much and have such a good appetite have always given me a feeling of cold blood and numbness. Zhao Yue'e: "You can't eat for nothing, Miss Liang, Miss Xu, what, is there anything we can do?" "...Yao Jing's daughter?" The sound of cups, saucers and chopsticks staggered. "Yao Jing's daughter..." At this time, I took a picture of the two sisters with a mountain-shaped frame that does not use a flash and a large aperture. People are very sensitive to the flash, and they immediately know that someone is taking pictures. If the flash is not used, it doesn't matter how many photos are pressed. "Yao Jing's daughter..." The two of them kept thinking. It has been confirmed again that Yao Jing really has a daughter. "Where is she?" "I was adopted as soon as I was born." Zhao Yue'e said. "You mean, the child is not by Yao Jing's side." "He was taken away as soon as he was born. We haven't seen her before. I heard it was a girl." "How many years ago?" "She came out of Shanghai that year not long ago...the child must be about seventeen or eighteen years old." "Who adopted this child?" "we do not know." "Has Yao Jing ever visited her?" "As far as we know, there has never been, and she didn't mention her, and we deliberately asked her in front of her, and she didn't respond." "Deliberately" asked.Why ask on purpose.Did he intentionally dig out her scars, or did he deliberately make a fool of her. Of course, don't worry about Yao Jing, Yao Jing's acting skills are more than enough to deal with people like them, no one can find any clues on her face. That girl is seventeen or eighteen years old. "what is her name?" "have no idea!" "Who is the father?" "Yao Jing's husband." "Has she been married before?" Sister Zhi almost broke the glass. "A total of two knots." "This man, where is he?" "No more news." "What kind of person is he?" Just too eager to know.Is it a bastard?hooligan?At that time, both of them were fifteen or twenty?He lied to her?Can't stand her? "No" "What kind of person is he?" "It's a middle-aged man." "Middle-aged man?" We were stunned. "yes." "How come!" I said. "It was a business. When they came to Hong Kong, they couldn't settle down. Both their father and daughter were restless, so she knew this businessman." Zhao Yue'e said. "Is it officially registered for marriage?" "Yes, registered with the Registrar of Marriages." "Hey, hey! But Yao Jing has never gone through divorce procedures." Sister Bian was greatly surprised. She's bigamous, she's bigamous in America. Her ex-husband did not protest, why? "What's that guy's name?" I asked eagerly. "Ma, surnamed Ma, his name is Ma Dongsheng." In any case, this Mr. Ma is a person worthy of respect, because he keeps his mouth shut. If he is like some frivolous men here, taking advantage of desserts, and shouting and singing everywhere, what will happen to Yao Jing? Is this a blessing in disguise?Her men are as silent as gold for her, even the little Shi Qi, they all keep secrets for her. "How can I find Mr. Ma?" "We haven't seen each other for more than ten years." "How can I find him?" "He has been in the business of exporting ready-made garments." "Thank you," Sister Editor said, "Thank you for your information." At this point, I couldn't bear it anymore and asked them, "Why did you tell us so much?" Zhao Yifen suddenly said a very thought-provoking sentence: "I have a secret in my heart, if you don't tell it, what's the use of knowing the secret?" Well said. We listened to this recorded dialogue over and over again. There are a lot of nonsense such as "Yue'e, eat quickly, it will become greasy when it cools" and "Hey, make soup dumplings, here". My sister and I concluded that they don't like Yao Jing. "why?" "Because of partiality." "Don't talk nonsense, justice is in the heart." "People's hearts? People's hearts have long gone to the ribs." She said, "My brother has two daughters, the older one looks like a star girl, and the second daughter looks like a clown duck. He once said that the difference between the two children is so far apart. " "Who knew there was more to come, he actually said: 'The second daughter is so beautiful, the eldest daughter is so ugly.' The listeners laughed in astonishment. There is no justice in the world. Love wants to live, and evil wants to die. The more Being different makes people hate you more, so it is said that being ordinary is a blessing, what do you know?" Wow, the lesson is one set. We still have to try to find Mr. Ma Dongsheng. "You go to New York to find Zhang Xu, and I'll go to Ma Dongsheng." "Don't turn the tiger away from the mountain, we two will never be separated, look for Ma Dongsheng together, and look for Zhang Xu after seeing Ma Dongsheng." We seemed to have got the treasure map of King Solomon, and we kept chasing it, refusing to let go. It took a lot of hard work, open investigation and unannounced visits, as well as private detectives, to track down Mr. Ma Dongsheng and take photos. I haven't seen Yang Shoulin for a long time, I looked up when I was busy with work, and I missed him very much, but I didn't think of looking for him.It faded away, and there is no doubt that he did not take the initiative to say hello to me. It's very sad, there was a time in the past, and we also had a strong friendship, and we should take advantage of that time to add some flour and make it thicker, so as not to make it like it is now. Too late. I picked up Mr. Ma Dongsheng's photo and took a closer look. He just came out of his own house, and his family lives in Kowloon Tong. It is a remodeled three-story bungalow of considerable scale, and he is boarding an Austin.The car was ten years old, and so was the suit he was wearing. He looks like a Jiangbei tailor, with a sunken chest and a protruding back. He has a slightly hunchbacked body and a deformed spine. This is the case for middle-aged and elderly people who are old and lack of exercise.However, when Mr. Ma Dongsheng was young, he must have never been handsome, maybe he is like this now. Twenty years ago, he was the leading actor in a business-purchased marriage. Yao Jing was only in her teens at that time, and she hadn't entered the film industry yet. Filming was after she broke up with him.I didn't expect this secret to be kept so well and for so long. The child was also born before Yao Jing entered the training class of Yilin Film Company.What we don't understand is that according to Ma Dongsheng's financial situation, he is more than able to take care of the child's life, so why would his daughter be adopted to someone else? The editor said, "I don't think Zhang Xu knows so much." "I think he knew it, which is enough to explain why he was indifferent to her later." "For such a small matter?" Sister Editor laughed. I thought about it, "Maybe Zhang Xu doesn't mind, but it's obvious that his family is very dissatisfied." "It's not his family who married a wife." "But it's not like you don't know that as soon as the family members leave the family, they will be reduced to ordinary people. They will not go against the wishes of their elders." Don't talk so far, even if it's Shoulin, if the family doesn't like him to associate with me, wouldn't he just turn around and leave? Xinwenbao is the only one. As the general manager, it is an obvious choice to leave me or leave his home. "Why did the Zhang family have trouble with Yao Jing because of such a trivial matter?" "I don't know. They have their difficulties. The old family with some reputation probably has a lot of people. A daughter-in-law has such a history. It would probably be embarrassing for relatives and friends to talk about it behind her back." "Will it be?" Sister Editor was very skeptical. We are ordinary people. We work at sunrise and rest at sunset. After get off work, we close the door and turn on the TV. It’s another day. Of course, we don’t feel that life is painful and complicated. My girlfriend who remarried years ago attended Xinwenggu's dinner, which happened to be Mother's Day. The mother-in-law said to my girlfriend, "You are also a mother. I wish you a happy Mother's Day." It's really ambiguous, and I can't tell whether she is caring or mean. When I heard this, I was overwhelmed immediately. I directly felt that this mother-in-law was difficult to get along with, and I was sweating for my girlfriend. Sure enough, after a while, she separated from her husband. Interpersonal relationships are inextricably linked, and there is no story about how we will go despite the tens of thousands of people. Therefore, in the later period Zhang Xu lived in New York and Yao Jing lived in Hong Kong. The relationship between husband and wife existed in name only because too many people were involved. I asked the editor and said: "You seem to have not written a manuscript for a long time, practice quickly." "I can't write. Sometimes I start writing with enthusiasm on Fridays. There are three to five thousand words a day. I am thankful that the writing went well. After a weekend, I can't continue. There is another pile of waste paper in the drawer." "It's been a long time and I don't try anymore, I just write some sketches, three to five hundred words, clear every day." Sister Editor said. "Who will write Yao Jing's story in the future?" I said. "You." She still refused to write. It was so hard that such a big responsibility fell on me. I have to find the answer first. Ma's servants were very polite to us and let us into the house. Ma Dongsheng's room is very comfortably furnished. The furniture is in the so-called streamlined style of the 1950s. It is well maintained. Now it does not feel old, but rather novel. Under the influence of nostalgia, even a Burke May 1 gold pen is rare. Yes, let alone a house full of expensive household items. After waiting for an hour, he called the apartment, and the servant gave our name back. He asked us to meet the next day and sent us back. But when we went back the next day, the servants refused to open the door, and we were tricked into leaving the mountain. We knew immediately what was wrong.The two of us were too careless and exposed our identities. Ma Dongsheng immediately knew that we were here for Yao Jing, so he was very vigilant. Fortunately, we already had a phone number, but after calling, the servant only said that Mr. Ma was not in Hong Kong. I think the whole matter needs to be quiet before handing him over again. It is not good for us to force a frightened bird. "Come on, let's go to Sangu thatched cottage first, don't forget Mr. Zhu." We went there in time. Zhu's family had more than ten people, and the immigration procedures had been completed, and they were going to leave within a few days. Mr. Zhu was very surprised to see us. He asked, "Are you still reporting on Yao Jing?" "No, no, no, it's not news, it's just that I can't let go." "Why do you know so much about things that have nothing to do with you?" Elder Zhu asked. "No, I must find out why she gave me the inheritance." "Because you are cute, isn't that enough?" He is also very good at talking. "not enough." "You won't get anything from me." "We have found Ma Dongsheng." I said. This little old man. He has always known Ma Dongsheng, but he just let us go around in circles. "It's useless if he refuses to see us," I said in a despicable way, "Mr. Zhu, please tell him that we will have to guard the gate of his house for a few days and nights if necessary. Please report to him on our behalf." He promised that we would never write what he said as news." "Why is that?" The old man didn't forgive us, "He is a legitimate businessman, why bother you." He looked a little disgusted at us, "Others beat your life for the old things of twenty years ago, So what about you? Don’t do to others what you don’t want yourself to do to yourself, this generation of young people only have selfish desires.” Such an accusation is serious, and I immediately silence it. The editor gave me a white look, "She can't speak, Mr. Zhu, don't blame her." "The two of you, what do you want to know if you don't do your serious business?" I said, "I want to see Yao Jing's child." "The child has nothing to do with you, why not let her live a good life?" I forced a smile and said, "Mr. Zhu made us look like locusts." "Aren't you?" He stood up, "Call, just call for you, I can't guarantee whether they will see you or not." he walks away. I scolded him for no reason, feeling bored.
