I heard they all love me

Chapter 52

To Chu Li, he really doesn't know which sounds better to be dumped by his mother as a "burden" to his father or to be sold to his father by his mother as a "rare commodity to live in".

He left the ward with a lot of thoughts, still thinking about what Grandma Xie said - the servant privately said that Jiang Xingzhe's mother gave birth to twins.Although Grandma Xie's words may not be credible, after all, she also "heard", but Chu Li couldn't help thinking about the possibility, what if it was true?

When Grandma Xie said this at first, Chu Li didn't take it very seriously.Although "Chu Li" does look too similar to "Jiang Xingzhe", he is prejudiced against Grandma Xie, and discounts everything he hears.Besides, the father is not stupid, how can he not know that he lost a son?No matter what, I should look for it and spread some wind.But after talking with Grandma Xie, Chu Li's emotions were unknowingly infected by Grandma Xie.In Grandma Xie's sometimes excited and sometimes crazy narration, the past events are gradually clearly outlined in front of her eyes.And the father... Chu Li thought silently, probably he could really turn a blind eye to his missing son.After all, in the eyes of my father, it was not decent for my mother to leave that year.Leaving aside the authenticity of the "twins", it can be seen from his own growth experience over the years that his father is not interested, it is really clear at a glance.

He stood motionless in front of the ward, Jiang Xingjian saw him coming out, and hurried over: "Xiao Li?"

Chu Li was startled awake and whispered, "I'm going to the bathroom."

He hurriedly turned to the bathroom on the side of the corridor, leaned against the door, took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhang Qiguo's number.

If, Chu Li thought... If what Grandma Xie said was true, would "Chu Li" and "Jiang Xingzhe" really be brothers of the same mother?In this way, it makes sense why the two look so similar, rather than just describing it by coincidence.If you want to know if this guess is true, the easiest way is to secretly do a paternity test with your father.But Chu Li didn't want to see his father, not to mention that his father was abroad now, and he couldn't see him even if he wanted to.

He also just thought that he can ask Zhang Qiguo about this matter, all he needs to know is whether Mother Chu gave birth to twins.If it is... Chu Li is a little at a loss, it means that the guess is very likely to be true, will he tell Jiang Xingjian?

While thinking about it, the phone beeped a few times, but no one answered it.Chu Li squeezed the phone slightly, subconsciously holding his breath.It was as if a huge black hole was unfolding in front of his eyes, drawing away the surrounding air, he closed his eyes in a trance, only to realize that his palms were covered with sweat unconsciously.

While waiting silently, the innermost grid of the bathroom opened, and a strange middle-aged man came out.His eyes swept casually, the middle-aged man stopped and looked at Chu Li with concern: "Little brother, are you okay?"

Chu Li shook his head.

The other party's eyes fell on the somewhat whitish fingers he pinched, and he didn't know what to think, so he said softly "Hey", and said to him: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are fate, little brother, please be careful, if you have anything to do, please contact the family." People say, let your adults help you make up your mind."

Chu Li was slightly taken aback by what he said, and then guessed that the other party probably wanted to go wrong.He guessed that his face must be very ugly now, and he was in a place like a hospital. He guessed that the other party either regarded him as a patient or a family member of the patient.But he didn't intend to explain, just nodded and said softly: "Thank you!"

As the word "Thank you" fell, the beeping sound of the mobile phone suddenly disappeared, and Zhang Qiguo's voice followed: "Xiaoli?"

Chu Li let out a long breath, calmed himself down and said, "Uncle."

Zhang Qiguo's voice was filled with a smile: "What's the matter? Remember to call uncle at this time?"

It can be heard that Zhang Qiguo is enjoying a good life in the world, the sorrow of the past is gone in his voice, and there is a sense of satisfaction.Chu Li hesitated slightly, suddenly not sure whether he should ask his uncle about it.Actually, think about it, so what if Chu Li and Jiang Xingzhe are brothers?Could it be that he still intends to recognize Jiang's family?

Chu Li's hesitation fell into Zhang Qiguo's ears, and he immediately became anxious: "Xiao Li, what's the matter? Did the filming not go well? You tell uncle, uncle will find time to see you."

"It's not..." Chu Li stammered, and he simply said in a low voice, "Aren't I filming in Haicheng? Occasionally, I know a few people who say that I look a lot like a friend of theirs, exactly the same kind. I just wanted to ask if I still have a twin brother or something."

Chu Li casually asked this sentence in a joking tone. Originally, Zhang Qiguo should have laughed twice and called him "nonsense" or something, but Zhang Qiguo's voice tightened, and he faltered and said: "No, no That matter. You, Xiaoli, don't think about it."

Probably because he had never lied in front of Chu Li, or Zhang Qiguo had never lied in his life, he seemed very uncomfortable, and even his voice became strange.Worrying about Chu Li's wild thoughts, he even added a superfluous sentence: "...Your mother is your only child, really."

If he didn't say that, Chu Li might have to think about it more, but when he said this, Chu Li only felt his heart sink slightly, and pretended to be nonchalant: "Oh, I was just joking with uncle. Anyway, the one they said My friend has passed away too, it seems like they all said..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Qiguo suddenly raised his voice: "Xiao Li, what did you say, died? How did he die? What's his name?"

A series of questions hit Chu Li, and Zhang Qiguo's voice trembled.Chu Li's voice became low when he guessed something: "I heard from those people that it was a car accident and they were not rescued. I didn't ask what it was called."

"Car accident, car accident!"

Zhang Qiguo mumbled twice in a daze, and suddenly thought of something. With shaking hands, he took out the wallet that had been used for almost ten years from his clothes, and found a yellowed photo in the deepest compartment of the wallet.

In the photo, the young mother of Chu looked frighteningly pale, with a dull look on her face.She looked not very energetic, she was wearing a shawl that was very valuable at first glance, leaning against the head of the bed, and two babies who were wrapped in the same package were sleeping in front of her - time was frozen in Mother Chu's tired eyes, looking for There is no joy in being a mother.

Zhang Qiguo's rough fingers brushed over the two babies in the photo, and the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time resurfaced. "Did my sister really have two children? But why did my sister never mention the other child? Even if my sister is not mentally normal, what about my brother-in-law?"

This photo was Chu's father's relic, and he kept it in the deepest part of the closet.If Zhang Qiguo hadn't planned to sell the house some time ago and accidentally found this photo in the closet when he was sorting out his things, he wouldn't have such an outrageous guess: Mother Chu gave birth to two children, not just Chu Li.

But why...

"uncle?"

Chu Li couldn't see Zhang Qiguo's movements, only heard him muttering something in a low voice, and couldn't help but scream.

Zhang Qiguo came back to his senses, thought about it and said to Chu Li: "Xiao Li, why don't you go and find out the name of the person who looks like you? I, I..." He felt that this request was too much. It's too weird, but I don't know how to tell Chu Li the truth.Could he say that Chu Li might have another brother who was somehow abandoned by his sister?What if the person Chu Li mentioned was really his sister's child, but died at a young age... Zhang Qiguo suddenly became sad, and said in a low voice, "Uncle wants to go and see, I mean...I..."

"I know." Chu Li said softly, "I know, I'll find out and tell uncle."

There was no need for Zhang Qiguo to tell the reason, Chu Li had already guessed the reason.Strangely, Chu Li was extremely calm.Probably because there were too many thrills today, or he didn't plan to go back to Jiang's family anyway, it didn't matter whether they were twins or his father's son.

He didn't know when he hung up the phone, and he stood there in a daze after leaving the bathroom alone, a certain idea in his mind ran out like a wild horse running wild.

Why was he the one who was dropped?Although it's not very good to think like this, why not "Chu Li"?If Chu's mother was really his mother, when he was still so young, what selection criteria did Chu's mother use to leave him at Jiang's house and bring "Chu Li" with her?Could it be that he has been so unlikable since he was a child?

"Xiao Li!"

Jiang Xingjian must have been waiting in the ward for a long time, and he didn't see Chu Li passing by for a long time, so he came over directly.

Chu Li suddenly felt a sense of grievance, his heart seemed to be soaked in bitter and astringent mucus.He looked at Jiang Xingjian sadly, and said softly, "...brother."

It was as if a stone had dropped, causing ripples in my heart.The soil on Jiang Xingjian's heart was softened by the "brother" call, and it was full of bright flowers.He took a step forward uncontrollably, rubbing Chu Li into his arms tightly.The throbbing in his heart was like the beating of a drum, making him tremble even to breathe.

The long-term extravagant hope seems to be realized today—even though Chu Li did not agree to be with him, the word "brother" seems to be the first step.He never thought that one day he could be so close to Chu Li.After going through countless desperate and obscure darkness, being able to hold Chu Li in his arms openly like this, and feel the body temperature of the other party at close range, has already made Jiang Xingjian want to cry happily.

There seemed to be someone passing by in the corridor, but at the moment Jiang Xingjian only had Chu Li in his eyes.As if bewitched, he lowered his head and kissed Chu Li lightly on the head, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Li, I'm here."

At the corner, Xie Yuanxun watched this scene in surprise.He stood there for a while with an uncertain expression, then turned around and left quietly.
