June and July in Lincheng is the rainy season, and the rainy days have covered the whole city with a layer of water mist.

Shima'ao is an ancient town in Lincheng, but they don't have any historical monuments and cultural celebrities here. Except for people who have lived in this town for generations, few people come to travel here on weekdays.

Most of the local people rely on farmland for food. About half of the land in the town is cultivated land. In recent years, people have become more and more particular about their diet. Many residents of surrounding towns drive to the town to buy vegetables grown by farmers. Fruits and free-range chicken, duck and poultry have driven the local economic development.

However, in the rainy season like now, most of the customers in the past will not show up, so there are few fresh faces in the town.

When Gu Chu appeared in Xiaoyang Village dragging a suitcase and carrying a shoulder bag, he immediately attracted the attention of the villagers who were chatting under the eaves in front of the village committee while sheltering from the rain.

"Girl, who are you looking for?"

A fat old lady wearing red and green floral short sleeves stood up, holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand, and asked Gu Chu.

She looked at Gu Chu up and down, Shima Ao Zuo was so big, Xiaoyang Village was naturally smaller, and now everyone wants to run out, and there are only more than 20 households who often live in the village, and everyone looks down and disappears. Look up and see, who doesn't know who.

She stared at the little girl in front of her.

Huh, this girl is really tall, and she has shaved her head, she thought she was a young man when she first looked at it from a distance.

The fat aunt is also 1.6 meters tall, but the girl in front of her is a head taller than her. It is estimated that she is at least 175 meters tall. She has a straight body and looks like a model on TV.

This girl also has good facial features, thick eyebrows, and heroic eyes. Perhaps because of the slight thinness, the bird's nest on the nose bridge is more profound and three-dimensional. The lips are neither thin nor thick, and no lipstick is applied, showing a natural powder.

The fat aunt sighed in her heart, this girl must be a beautiful girl if she dresses up well, but she has learned to dress up like some little girls in the city. T-shirt, if it weren't for the little heaving of her chest, she would still be a handsome boy.

Looking at it, the fat aunt looked more and more familiar.

"Aunt Sanhua."

Unlike the fat aunt Liu Sanhua's hard thinking, Gu Chu called out her name accurately at once.

Few people know that Gu Chu suffers from hyperamnesia. The caudate nucleus and temporal lobe of her brain are different from ordinary people, but she can remember everything she has experienced in person, down to every detail.

This is not a great "superpower", because compared with beauty, painful, sad, embarrassing experiences are more clear, and they will be played repeatedly in the brain all the time.

"You are that little girl from the Chu family, call, call Chu...Chu..."

Aunt Fatty slapped her thigh suddenly and remembered Gu Chu's identity, but more than 20 years later, she really couldn't remember Gu Chu's name.

"Auntie, I changed my name, Gu Chu, you can call me Xiao Gu or Xiao Chu."

Gu Chu's smile was light, neither approaching nor alienating.

"Gu Chu?"

Liu Sanhua smiled for a while, and she remembered that when the old Chu family's daughter-in-law and her man divorced, they took one child away, the older boy stayed at the old Chu family, and the girl left with her mother. heard that they said yes when they divorced Well, the daughter who was taken away will take her mother's surname from now on.

I vaguely remember that the daughter-in-law of the old Chu family was named Gu.

It's just that the name Gu Chu is a bit too casual. After changing the surname, the name is still the same as the previous one.

"In the blink of an eye, I haven't seen you for more than 20 years. I hugged you when you were young. How are you and your mother all these years? Why don't you come back to see your grandma, your father and your brother."

Thinking of what happened to the Chu family over the years, Liu Sanhua sighed, and looked at Gu Chu with a bit of blame and pity in his eyes.

Blame her for leaving and never coming back, but Liu Sanhua also knew in her heart that the child followed her mother, and her mother might not speak well of her ex-husband's family. Besides, she was so young when she left, and her relatives on her father's side How much emotion can there be?

"My mother passed away a few years ago."

Gu Chu didn't want to talk more about those years, "I came back this time for my brother's business."

Seeing that Gu Chu mentioned her brother, Liu Sanhua's face changed, and the group of villagers behind her who listened to their conversation also showed hesitation.

After the former daughter-in-law of the Chu family took Gu Chu away, many major events happened in the Chu family.

First, the old man of the Chu family disappeared. A few days later, he was found collapsed in the valley of the back mountain. His head was smashed on a raised stone, and blood flowed all over the place. When he was found, he was already dead and stinking.

Old man Chu is the backbone of the family. The sons of the Chu family do not live up to expectations.

As long as the work in the field is finished, the old man Chu will go to the back mountain to cut some dead branches and find some wild vegetables, which can be exchanged for some money to supplement the family. Elderly people with spare money cook and deliver meals, and they can earn some hard money every month.

Back then when Gu Chu's mother divorced and took her away, no one in the village thought her mother was wrong. It was too much suffering for such an incompetent and useless man to stand on the table.

It’s not that no one went to the back mountain to look for old man Chu when he disappeared. It’s just that old man Chu was only active in the middle of the mountain at the foot of the mountain, and he didn’t dare to go to the deepest place. in the col.

If it weren't for a few uneducated youngsters who were thinking of hunting game to make money, they accidentally discovered the body of old man Chu, I'm afraid no one would find out until the body rotted.

Not three months after old man Chu's death, old lady Chu also drowned by the river. Ever since her wife passed away, the old lady's spirits have been bad. Come, all of a sudden black eyes dizzy fell into the river.

At that time, no one passed by, and people just disappeared.

The parents who raised him were gone, and Chu Chengmin, the son of the Chu family, finally sobered up for a while, took care of his parents' funeral, and then went out to work.

The little grandson of the Chu family, that is, Gu Chu's elder brother named Chu Xiangru, was entrusted by him to the neighbor next door.

Chu Chengmin came back every three or four months, and each time he would bring a little money back to the family that fostered the child. At the beginning, he took two or three hundred at a time, but later the prices rose, and the money he brought back also increased. Followed up a little.

But that little money is enough for the children to have a full meal, and to pick up some old clothes that the children of that family don't want to wear.

Everyone thinks the child is pitiful. Every time he comes back from the market, he will put a piece of fried cake and maltose in his pocket... It's just some small snacks to coax children. They were originally bought to coax their own children. I gave Chu Xiangru a piece or two.For peace of mind.

This kind of life lasted for several years. After Chu Xiangru was in the third grade of elementary school, he stopped staying at the neighbor's house. He moved back to the old house of Chu's family. After Chu Chengmin came back, he asked him to buy enough for him to eat for several months. Grain and some vegetables that can last for a long time, and the rest of the money is in my own hand. In this way, I started a life alone.

The children of poor families are in charge of the family early, not to mention the more complicated family like the Chu family. Chu Xiangru, who is still a child, arranges his small life in an orderly manner, and even takes care of the private plot in the front and back yard of the old house after studying. , saving the cost of daily grocery shopping.

This kid is saving money. The old man didn’t get much money back, so he has to save it slowly. A curious elder asked him, and he said that he wanted to save money to find his mother and younger sister. The younger sister loves to eat rice cakes. He was going to find his sister with a bag of rice cakes.

Later, the child became more and more silent and withdrawn. When people asked him if he was still saving money, he just looked at people directly, but stopped answering.

"Your father passed away thirteen years ago, and your brother organized the funeral... Then he stopped studying and stayed at home all day..."

Liu Sanhua faltered and said that she was too embarrassed to tell Gu Chu frankly that your brother has been abolished since your father died, and has become a person like your father.

In fact, the child Xiangru has always had good grades. Although there is no one in his family, there are still some people who are related to the Chu family in a village. If you look closer, his grandfather and an elder brother live in the same village. .

Although everyone is reluctant to raise a child in vain, but so many families collect some food and tuition fees, at least it will allow Chu Xiangru to finish high school, and when the time comes to enter the university, won’t there be student loans? With his ability, he can still finish reading the book.

The relatives and friends really thought about Chu Xiangru, but the child didn't appreciate it. He was separated by several layers. Seeing that he was obsessed with his obsession, gradually, fewer people persuaded him.

I just sighed when met in private, this old Chu family is over.

"Since last month, I haven't seen your brother anymore. Your cousin broke open the door and found a puddle of blood in the house. The village called the police. The police came and took a blood test. They said that the puddle of blood was It's your brother's, but don't worry too much, girl, I haven't found anyone yet, maybe, maybe he's still alive."

Another thin old lady interjected.

"Hey, after your father passed away, people in the village wanted to find you and your mother, but Huaxia is so big, it's not easy to find two big living people, but girl, who found you this time and told you about your brother?"

The old lady's expression was a little suspicious.

After Chu Chengmin's death, the first reaction of the villagers was to find his ex-wife. Even though the divorce was unpleasant, the son was always his biological son. That woman might be willing to raise the son. Besides, the child must be by his own mother's side.better.

However, Chu Chengmin's ex-wife was from another province. The household registration system in those days was not as perfect as it is now, and there was no communication between the provinces. After a period of searching, the villagers gave up.

How can people who have not appeared in nearly 20 years suddenly appear at this time.

I don't think that Gu Chu is here to receive the inheritance. The Chu family will break down the house, and there is nothing to gain.

"Someone sent me a letter."

The letter said that her brother was missing, and it also came with half a piece of blood-stained cake...
