I looked at him in surprise: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Why don't you even know your own name."
He suddenly covered his head with his hands, and said to me with pain on his face: "Ah, ah, I have a headache... When I think about the past, my head hurts. The doctor said that I was hit by a car accident and my head was damaged."
I immediately became nervous: "What?! A car accident? Don't worry about it. Did you get injured anywhere? Didn't leave any sequelae..."
He looked pitifully: "No, it's cured, but the concussion caused the loss of memory. I'm sorry, I didn't forget you on purpose, but I really can't remember anything. No one around For me, there are no clues left at the scene of the accident."
My poor brother, indeed, suffered a head injury, no wonder he can't even remember his own name.
He stared into my eyes sincerely, showing a bitter smile: "Xu Yan, can you tell me more about the past, maybe I will remember it. The first time I saw you just now, I think you are very kind, you can see that we look so similar, we must be related by blood. It's just that what happened just now was so sudden that I was taken aback, so you won't blame me."
"How could it be..." I rubbed my eyes and said to him, holding back tears, "Brother, no matter what happened to you, or you did some heinous things, I will always be you family. Don’t worry now, the concussion will get better gradually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember it, you can ask me.”
"Then can you tell me what my name is?"
"Brother, your name is Xu Bing, Yan Wuxu, the ice of the iceberg."
He blurted out in surprise: "Isn't your surname Xue?"
Why is the surname Xue?
【175】
The adoptive father's surname is "Xu" and our mother's surname is "Liu". Even if they are homophonic, they can't be homonymous to "Xue".
Why does "my brother" say such strange things?
However, before I could ask, the surprised expression on his face quickly turned into a bright smile: "Don't care, don't care," he waved his hand as if to drive away invisible flies in the air, "I'm just guessing randomly. Yes," he spread his hands, "You also know that I have amnesia, and I don't remember my name at all. Now that I'm talking about my name, hey, let me ask you, then your mother... oh no, it should be our mother, we What's your mother's name?"
【176】
I have to praise that "my brother" is really skilled in changing the subject.
If it was someone else, I'm afraid he would have been fooled by his casual attitude.
It's a pity that his opponent today is me.
When I was three years old, I once soaked in Huangquan for a long time because of drowning.
In other words, the water ingress in parts of my head was so severe that the parts of my submerged brain were severely rusted.
And the three words that Xue Yi said before just happened to fall into the hardest hit area with a "plop".
You also know that if you soak in water for a long time, then the gears of your thinking are bound to get rusty.
So, despite his attempts to change the subject, the gears of my brain were too rusted to turn at all, still stuck on the previous question.
"Brother, I don't understand, why did you mention 'Xue' among the more than 22000 surnames?" I asked with a puzzled face, "You know, Li, Wang, and Zhang are the ones we most often encounter. And..." I scratched my head, "There are a total of 1 surnames accounting for more than 19% of the country, and none of them have the surname 'Xue'. From the perspective of probability, if you are randomly drawn With this surname, the possibility is really too small.”
My brother's expression suddenly became very strange.
【177】
You must not think that I am too sensitive about the surname "Xue".
If it were you, after meeting a scum like Qiao Lihong, how could you not be wary of these annoying wealthy families?
What's more, there are not many giants in our city, there are only five in total.
In Xujia City 30 years ago, there was neither me nor my childhood, but there were five bloated and powerful families.
If we rank them, from largest to smallest, they are: "Cui", "Zhuang", "Qiao", "Fang", and "Xue".
However, time is probably the most fickle bitch in the world. In this period of time, whether it is long or short:
"Cui"'s family members are all dead, and the murderer fled abroad, and has not yet been apprehended - although everyone agrees in private that the so-called "murderer" is actually just a "shield" deliberately placed in front of the public.The real prisoner should be the overlord of the Qiao family—Master Qiao (Qiao Yi).
The "Zhuang" family was devoured by Qiao Lihong's father to the last breath-this is because his wife (Zhuang Luoyue, Qiao Lihong's mother) is the eldest lady of the Zhuang family, so he deliberately raised his precious hand to leave some for everyone face.
The "Fang" family is still the same Fang family, and will always be a grass on the wall that is blown only for profit, and it is still the kind of grass that "wild fire can't burn out, and spring wind blows and regenerates".Their family members have average IQs, average personalities, and average looks. All in all, they are a very popular group of people... However, they are not outstanding in other abilities, but they are especially able to give birth!Especially very able to give birth!In my grandfather's generation, there were seven brothers. By the time of my father's generation, they could already form a football team, and they still belonged to the super-large camp with substitute players and team managers.As for now...children beget grandchildren, grandchildren beget sons, sons and grandchildren are endless... I believe you don't need me to talk nonsense anymore.
And the "Joe" family...
I don't want to talk about the Qiao family, but the thought of that vegetative person lying in the hospital makes my stomach hurt.
So, why do I immediately stand on my head nervously when I hear "Xue"?
This is because after decades of changes, the former five major families have almost become a family with the surname "Joe".
In other words, in today's Xujia City, I am afraid that only the "Xue" family who have been here since the Qianlong period have the qualifications and strength to stand shoulder to shoulder with the "Qiao" group.
Now, Qiao Lihong alone has caused me a lot of trouble, and the rest of the Qiao family haven't done anything to me yet.
If "my brother" has anything to do with Xue's family, for example, if he is cheated into marriage by "Xue Lihong" or "Xue Tingting" and forced to [beep——]...
That would really be "1 Joe Trouble + 1 Xue Trouble > 2 Nuclear Bomb Troubles".
【178】
I don't remember ever telling you guys that my brother is a very smart guy.
If not, well, I'm here to reiterate again.
My brother is very smart!
Really very very smart!
If people from the entire Xujia City were gathered together to conduct an intelligence test collectively, and at the same time open a bet on "who is IQ No. 1" on the other side...
Believe me!Don't hesitate!Take out all your property, and put it all on my brother!
You will definitely win the bet and become a billionaire overnight!
Wasn't I worried that "my brother" and the Xue family had some "secrets that cannot be told", guess what?
I haven't even said anything yet, so "my brother" can see through my thoughts at a glance.
"Aren't you suspecting that I have something to do with Zeqiao Real Estate?"
【179】
Q: Who is the chairman of Zedi Real Estate?
Answer: Xue Zeqiao is the current ruler of the Xue family.
Xue Zeqiao is of the same generation as Qiao Lihong and his father (Qiao Changcheng). After both belong to a big family, they have become two people with completely opposite temperaments and behavior styles.
Compared with the flamboyant, arrogant and tyrannical Qiao Changcheng, after being a Confucian businessman, Xue Zeqiao has a gentler and more refined temperament. He is best at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger quietly, playing black-bellied games with high IQ.
Qiao Changcheng has a short temper and has a quick personality. He hates red tape and red tape the most. He always likes to get straight to the point, "You are the one who beat me up today! What's the matter, if you don't accept it? If you don't accept it, I will bear it! If you want revenge, you are welcome anytime!".
Xue Zeqiao, on the other hand, prefers to call friends face to face and kindly, hello, hello, everyone, and then when you are drunk and think nothing is wrong, you are wrapped in a sack and dragged into a dark alley as soon as you go out. Straight to crippled.And what's even more wronged is that you can't trouble him later, because he has the most perfect alibi.
There is no doubt that Xue Zeqiao is an awesome character. Without him to turn the tide in time, whether the Xue family can still exist today will probably have to be put with a question mark in bold and capital letters.
Moreover, this guy has been talking about it since he was born.Even before he was born, he had already become a topic of conversation among folks from far and near.
why?
Because Xue Zeqiao was the only child that his father had been looking forward to day and night after waiting for five daughters.
How much did his father (Old Man Xue, Xue Jinpeng) yearn for?
This can be seen from the nicknames of his sisters.
The five delicate and beautiful golden flowers in the family, if they are placed in other people's homes, they are definitely the apple of the eye, but the Xue family is lucky, "recruit younger brother", "come younger brother", "lead younger brother", "think about younger brother", "hope younger brother", the names Getting can be direct and rude.
When he grew up, his older sisters often joked about this matter, complaining to him: Why do you always stay in your mother’s belly and refuse to come out, which made us almost unable to get married with such an ugly name. You won't have a decent name until after you're born.
It is said that in exchange for his precious son, his father paid a lot of money to invite the closed disciple of Taoist Master Maoshan, and after years of harming his family, he put the seeds with handles into his mother's stomach , this is the continuation of the incense of the Xue family.
Although Xue Zeqiao is the sixth eldest in the family, he has no elder brothers and no younger siblings. Therefore, being the youngest in the family and the eldest son in the family, as the only precious man in the family, his status is naturally conceivable. Know.
It is not an exaggeration to describe his childhood life as "a collection of thousands of pets".
It's a pity that Aizi is like his life ≠ being good at management.
By the time the Xue family's huge (hot) mountain (taro) that had lasted for more than 300 years was finally passed into Xue Zeqiao's hands, it had already been harmed by Xue Zeqiao's father to the brink of bankruptcy.If it wasn't for Xue Zeqiao's efforts to turn the tide, I'm afraid this prehistoric dinosaur would have died regrettably.
This person deeply understands the essence of the word "willing to be willing", and has a very high vision. He even predicted in advance the explosive development of the real estate field in the future, so as to concentrate the company's core business areas in the real estate field and eliminate the dross. Accurate, sell redundant and burdensome companies that are inconsistent with the company's overall philosophy at a low price, acquire and reorganize assets, and at the same time introduce a large amount of overseas investment funds, and implement a series of reform measures internally...
So far, Zeqiao Real Estate has become the leading company with the highest price-earnings ratio among the Xue Group with a total market capitalization of more than [-] billion.Not only that, six years ago, Zeqiao Real Estate even entered the list of the world's top [-] companies in one fell swoop, officially becoming the second largest company in the city after "Joe"'s family.
Now Xue Zeqiao has entered the age of "knowing the destiny", and besides his commercial success, his reputation in this city is unbelievably good.
As the behind-the-scenes director of a huge listed company, he has been able to stay away from cheating, cheating, and love his wife for decades, and has long occupied the top spot on the "man who wants to marry" list. The wives of other families that I envy the most."
In addition, Xue Zeqiao's academic qualifications are even more frighteningly high.Others may just have the position of general manager, and they are busy becoming Dayu who "passes the house three times and never enters". Qiao Lihong, who has a higher position, spends more than half of a year as a "trapeze", but Xue Zeqiao is better. At the same time, he is also the chairman of Zeqiao Real Estate, the chairman of Xuexi Industrial Group, and the director of Guanhai Charity... In addition to many positions, he has won eight master's degrees and two doctorates.Moreover, it is said that this person is now attacking the art field. He only started to pick up a brush to learn oil painting when he was about to retire, and he was able to win the praise of international famous painting masters in a year... Newspapers and magazines no longer say that he is "enviable" Jealous and hate", but directly called him "knee reaper".
To sum up, if Xue Yi gets involved with such a terrifying guy, then in my opinion, let's not talk about revenge or not, I'd better call an ambulance directly.
【180】
"Did I guess right?" I asked him cautiously.
"You really like to joke." "My brother" couldn't help laughing bitterly, "After the car accident, I can't remember anything at all, but people can't always call me 'Hi', so I just casually call me in the hospital. Take the easiest one."
I became curious: "Then what's your name now?"
"'One'" he drew a horizontal bar in the air with his finger, "my name is Xue Yi. How about it? Simple enough!" He squinted his eyes and smiled, "I thought it was a random name anyway. , then simply choose the one with the fewest strokes, and call it 'one', hehe, it will save trouble for signing in the future."
He smiled open-mindedly, but I seemed to hear the desolation behind the laughter, and couldn't help but feel even more uncomfortable.
"The name will follow you for a lifetime, how can you be so casual...hey..." I really wanted to give him a warm hug, "Brother, how have you lived these years?"
"Hey...don't mention it." He looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's late at night, alone, even if I want to miss it, I don't even have a name, and I will always spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone. I know who my mother is, and I don’t even know where I come from.”
"I feel as if I jumped out of a crack in the rock. There is no destination in life, and death..." He smiled mockingly, "I'm afraid no one will shed tears for me."
As he spoke, he seemed to be unable to restrain the sadness that gushed out of his heart in an instant, and suddenly his eyes turned red, and his eyes suddenly became moist.
"Who said no one will shed tears! Have you forgotten me?!"
I was angry and sad, and immediately choked up.
I never imagined that one day I would see such a fragile side of my brother.
Presumably, he has been alone for so many years, so he must be very lonely.
"Brother...you and me...it doesn't matter if you can't remember, we are still the same family."
I got up and went over to comfort him, but "my brother" lowered his head suddenly while concealing it, and at the same time quickly and firmly raised his right hand to prevent me from approaching.
The boy does not cry easily.
Even if the love is deep, he will never show his embarrassing side in front of others.
Even if this other person is his own brother, there is no exception.
He is the most face-saving person. He never shed tears in front of me. I never expected to see such an unbelievable scene when we meet again after so many years. I immediately lost any doubts about him.
Looking at "my brother" like this, I was in a trance, and I felt like I was back in the past.
Even though at the moment I am facing a ladyboy in high heels dressed in dark punk, but I know that deep down in my heart, he is still my brother who is the toughest guy.
"Brother, don't be sad, I can't help it if you look like this..." Tears rolled in my eyes, and my voice was choked, "Brother! You! Don't cry!"
Although he said so in his mouth, his body's reaction was completely opposite.
My eyes always flood at the slightest disagreement.
"My brother" was so scared that he didn't dare to be sad any more, he quickly raised his head to stop me.
"Okay, okay! Don't cry, don't cry! You hurry up and stop!"
Although his eyes were still red, there was no trace of crying on his face.
Heck!
Obviously he was sad, I was just infected by his sad emotions.
But who will tell me!
Why was it me who cried the saddest in the end? !
"It's rare for our brothers to meet again. Let's stop talking about these sad things. Let's talk about some happy things. For example, we can talk about our mother. How is she now? Is she dead... Look at me, the scourge has been around for thousands of years, of course she is still alive. Then how is her health, does she suffer from any particularly painful cancer, does her hair fall out and she needs to undergo chemotherapy every day, is she in the advanced stage... How can you Are you crying? God! Didn’t you promise not to be sad?”
"Why do you shed tears so easily." He stretched out his hand in confusion, and wiped my face indiscriminately, "Hurry up and wipe it off. Look at you, don't you look like a man?"
"Brother..." I pressed his hand and said almost in tears, "Why did you even forget your mother? She was already dead. Did you forget that we went to the police station together?" Autopsy?!"
My brother felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body froze.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" I was puzzled by his strange reaction.
"Sorry, I just found out that my mother is dead... Is that woman really dead?" He was silent for a moment, "Where is she buried? My dear brother Jiang~ you can tell brother, she alone People are alone in the ground, and they must be very happy to have someone visit the grave."
I was puzzled by the strange expression of cynicism on his face, but I told him the address without thinking too much.
He repeated the address cautiously, and then confirmed to me: "Is this the place?"
I nodded.
Exactly word for word!
So angry!
Why is my brother's memory still so good? !
He asked, "Do you know how she died?"
"Ah..." I looked at him with a complicated expression, "That's a long story."
【181】
*********Memories·three-year-old drowning+mother's death********
How did my mother die?
This matter starts with my drowning when I was three years old.
My brother said that my mother suddenly became interested in going on an outing for some reason, so she secretly carried me out of the crib while my brother was in school.
The bus turned to a minibus and then to a tractor. Before the sun set, the mother and son finally arrived at a remote lake area hundreds of kilometers away from the city.
Then, out of nowhere, I accidentally fell into the water.
And I don't know why, when I fell into the water, my mother was not nearby, so I didn't find it in time.
I don't have any memory of the whole thing, but my brother said it was actually a particularly dangerous day because my heart stopped at one point.
In other words, I was actually someone who had already died once—albeit only for a few seconds.
And the reason why I didn't confess my life in that bottomless cold pool was because when I fell into the water, there happened to be a dumb uncle with a scar on his face nearby. After hearing my help from a distance, he quickly Came here.
Although when he arrived, the lake was completely calm and there were no people to be seen, but he still bravely jumped into the water regardless of the cold temperature of more than ten degrees below zero.
And, after several dives and resurfacing, he finally managed to snatch me back from death at the last moment.
After that, the kind dumb uncle took me to the hospital and paid all the medical expenses for me. After seeing that I woke up and made sure that I was still alive, he left silently without leaving a name.
After that, less than a month later, my mother died.
car accident.
The driver who caused the accident said that she hit it on her own initiative.
But since the driver failed the alcohol test, the responsibility fell on the beer belly with bad breath.
I don't know where my mother got the money to buy life insurance in advance.
So shortly after we went to the police station, we met the insurance company who came to investigate and got a small sum of money. Finally, we escaped the tragic fate of being kicked out to sleep on the bridge because of rent arrears.
【182】
All of the above was told to me by my brother.
I think I'm probably born with a poor memory.
However, the first girl I dated in my life, and also the one with the longest time, sent me a four-word comment when we broke up.
Heartless.
Of course, her original words were much longer than these four words, and the content was even more unpleasant, second only to Qiao Tingting in terms of harshness.And, by a very coincidence, on the day she broke up with me, just like Qiao Tingting, she also put her arms around the waist of the cheating partner.
Drunk, crying, cursing, tearing, and the lovelorn incident in my sophomore year, I have let go of it.
The reason why she suddenly brought up this matter again is mainly because her comment on me was correct to a certain extent.
Therefore, in terms of cause and effect, I probably have a poor memory because I have been drowned, which makes me particularly heartless.
Or... is it the other way around?
In short, although the dumb uncle saved me that day, logically speaking, I should keep his image in my heart and be grateful for the rest of my life.
But I didn't.
Not only not, I even forgot the other party's voice and appearance.
What was even more extreme than forgetting my savior was that I even forgot my own mother.
The process of forgetting is easy.I don't need it at all like I can't pull it out when I am constipated, so I hold back all my strength to exert myself.
I never remembered it, so I forgot it again.
When she was alive, I don't remember much.
But after she died, I miraculously remembered the funeral with only three people.
I remember that the sun was eerily bright that day—the day that should have been snowing, suddenly returned to scorching heat.Even the host of the TV weather station couldn't help expressing that "it's so hot that it's unscientific".
I still remember that I was wearing a particularly festive red cashmere sweater that day, with the white "Merry Christmas" on the top of the dress, and a lot of cartoon reindeer with wings underneath, each grinning happily.
Of course, what impressed me the most was my brother holding my little hand, staring at my adoptive father with a cold expression, watching him take the urn from the staff of the funeral home, and then he took the urn from my adoptive father .
Then, the moment my brother hugged the heavy urn, all the muscles in his face twitched wildly.
That expression was so ferocious that I was taken aback by him.
My brother turned to look at me.
His expression has returned to calm.
So calm...as if the loss of control before was all just my illusion.
He said to me in the tone of a news network host relaying the minutes of the latest meeting of the National Development, Reform and Development Commission today:
"Xu Yan, from now on, there are only two of us left in our family."
I was only a few days away from turning four, and my brother was six and a half years older than me, so my actual age at the time was only ten.
However, when he looked at me, I had the illusion that I was eye-to-eye with an adult.
"But don't be afraid." My brother looked at me and said calmly and indifferently, "I will let you live."
He looked up at the sky.
"I will definitely let you live."
Because his tone was no different from reading a newspaper, I believed it without hesitation, and then laughed carefree.
The weather was really nice that day.
The sun is shining brightly, and the winter sun is warm on the body.
My brother's smile is also warm.
Only the adoptive father who was standing at the side suddenly cried loudly for no reason.
*********************Memories End************************ ****
I looked at him in surprise: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Why don't you even know your own name."

"Then can you tell me what my name is?"
"Brother, your name is Xu Bing, Yan Wuxu, the ice of the iceberg."
He blurted out in surprise: "Isn't your surname Xue?"
Why is the surname Xue?

Qiao Changcheng has a short temper and has a quick personality. He hates red tape and red tape the most. He always likes to get straight to the point, "You are the one who beat me up today! What's the matter, if you don't accept it? If you don't accept it, I will bear it! If you want revenge, you are welcome anytime!".
Xue Zeqiao, on the other hand, prefers to call friends face to face and kindly, hello, hello, everyone, and then when you are drunk and think nothing is wrong, you are wrapped in a sack and dragged into a dark alley as soon as you go out. Straight to crippled.And what's even more wronged is that you can't trouble him later, because he has the most perfect alibi.
There is no doubt that Xue Zeqiao is an awesome character. Without him to turn the tide in time, whether the Xue family can still exist today will probably have to be put with a question mark in bold and capital letters.
Moreover, this guy has been talking about it since he was born.Even before he was born, he had already become a topic of conversation among folks from far and near.
why?
Because Xue Zeqiao was the only child that his father had been looking forward to day and night after waiting for five daughters.
How much did his father (Old Man Xue, Xue Jinpeng) yearn for?
This can be seen from the nicknames of his sisters.
The five delicate and beautiful golden flowers in the family, if they are placed in other people's homes, they are definitely the apple of the eye, but the Xue family is lucky, "recruit younger brother", "come younger brother", "lead younger brother", "think about younger brother", "hope younger brother", the names Getting can be direct and rude.
When he grew up, his older sisters often joked about this matter, complaining to him: Why do you always stay in your mother’s belly and refuse to come out, which made us almost unable to get married with such an ugly name. You won't have a decent name until after you're born.
It is said that in exchange for his precious son, his father paid a lot of money to invite the closed disciple of Taoist Master Maoshan, and after years of harming his family, he put the seeds with handles into his mother's stomach , this is the continuation of the incense of the Xue family.
Although Xue Zeqiao is the sixth eldest in the family, he has no elder brothers and no younger siblings. Therefore, being the youngest in the family and the eldest son in the family, as the only precious man in the family, his status is naturally conceivable. Know.
It is not an exaggeration to describe his childhood life as "a collection of thousands of pets".
It's a pity that Aizi is like his life ≠ being good at management.
By the time the Xue family's huge (hot) mountain (taro) that had lasted for more than 300 years was finally passed into Xue Zeqiao's hands, it had already been harmed by Xue Zeqiao's father to the brink of bankruptcy.If it wasn't for Xue Zeqiao's efforts to turn the tide, I'm afraid this prehistoric dinosaur would have died regrettably.
This person deeply understands the essence of the word "willing to be willing", and has a very high vision. He even predicted in advance the explosive development of the real estate field in the future, so as to concentrate the company's core business areas in the real estate field and eliminate the dross. Accurate, sell redundant and burdensome companies that are inconsistent with the company's overall philosophy at a low price, acquire and reorganize assets, and at the same time introduce a large amount of overseas investment funds, and implement a series of reform measures internally...
So far, Zeqiao Real Estate has become the leading company with the highest price-earnings ratio among the Xue Group with a total market capitalization of more than [-] billion.Not only that, six years ago, Zeqiao Real Estate even entered the list of the world's top [-] companies in one fell swoop, officially becoming the second largest company in the city after "Joe"'s family.
Now Xue Zeqiao has entered the age of "knowing the destiny", and besides his commercial success, his reputation in this city is unbelievably good.
As the behind-the-scenes director of a huge listed company, he has been able to stay away from cheating, cheating, and love his wife for decades, and has long occupied the top spot on the "man who wants to marry" list. The wives of other families that I envy the most."
In addition, Xue Zeqiao's academic qualifications are even more frighteningly high.Others may just have the position of general manager, and they are busy becoming Dayu who "passes the house three times and never enters". Qiao Lihong, who has a higher position, spends more than half of a year as a "trapeze", but Xue Zeqiao is better. At the same time, he is also the chairman of Zeqiao Real Estate, the chairman of Xuexi Industrial Group, and the director of Guanhai Charity... In addition to many positions, he has won eight master's degrees and two doctorates.Moreover, it is said that this person is now attacking the art field. He only started to pick up a brush to learn oil painting when he was about to retire, and he was able to win the praise of international famous painting masters in a year... Newspapers and magazines no longer say that he is "enviable" Jealous and hate", but directly called him "knee reaper".
To sum up, if Xue Yi gets involved with such a terrifying guy, then in my opinion, let's not talk about revenge or not, I'd better call an ambulance directly.

"Did I guess right?" I asked him cautiously.
"You really like to joke." "My brother" couldn't help laughing bitterly, "After the car accident, I can't remember anything at all, but people can't always call me 'Hi', so I just casually call me in the hospital. Take the easiest one."
I became curious: "Then what's your name now?"
"'One'" he drew a horizontal bar in the air with his finger, "my name is Xue Yi. How about it? Simple enough!" He squinted his eyes and smiled, "I thought it was a random name anyway. , then simply choose the one with the fewest strokes, and call it 'one', hehe, it will save trouble for signing in the future."
He smiled open-mindedly, but I seemed to hear the desolation behind the laughter, and couldn't help but feel even more uncomfortable.
"The name will follow you for a lifetime, how can you be so casual...hey..." I really wanted to give him a warm hug, "Brother, how have you lived these years?"
"Hey...don't mention it." He looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's late at night, alone, even if I want to miss it, I don't even have a name, and I will always spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone. I know who my mother is, and I don’t even know where I come from.”
"I feel as if I jumped out of a crack in the rock. There is no destination in life, and death..." He smiled mockingly, "I'm afraid no one will shed tears for me."
As he spoke, he seemed to be unable to restrain the sadness that gushed out of his heart in an instant, and suddenly his eyes turned red, and his eyes suddenly became moist.
"Who said no one will shed tears! Have you forgotten me?!"
I was angry and sad, and immediately choked up.
I never imagined that one day I would see such a fragile side of my brother.
Presumably, he has been alone for so many years, so he must be very lonely.
"Brother...you and me...it doesn't matter if you can't remember, we are still the same family."
I got up and went over to comfort him, but "my brother" lowered his head suddenly while concealing it, and at the same time quickly and firmly raised his right hand to prevent me from approaching.
The boy does not cry easily.
Even if the love is deep, he will never show his embarrassing side in front of others.
Even if this other person is his own brother, there is no exception.
He is the most face-saving person. He never shed tears in front of me. I never expected to see such an unbelievable scene when we meet again after so many years. I immediately lost any doubts about him.
Looking at "my brother" like this, I was in a trance, and I felt like I was back in the past.
Even though at the moment I am facing a ladyboy in high heels dressed in dark punk, but I know that deep down in my heart, he is still my brother who is the toughest guy.
"Brother, don't be sad, I can't help it if you look like this..." Tears rolled in my eyes, and my voice was choked, "Brother! You! Don't cry!"
Although he said so in his mouth, his body's reaction was completely opposite.
My eyes always flood at the slightest disagreement.
"My brother" was so scared that he didn't dare to be sad any more, he quickly raised his head to stop me.
"Okay, okay! Don't cry, don't cry! You hurry up and stop!"
Although his eyes were still red, there was no trace of crying on his face.
Heck!
Obviously he was sad, I was just infected by his sad emotions.
But who will tell me!
Why was it me who cried the saddest in the end? !
"It's rare for our brothers to meet again. Let's stop talking about these sad things. Let's talk about some happy things. For example, we can talk about our mother. How is she now? Is she dead... Look at me, the scourge has been around for thousands of years, of course she is still alive. Then how is her health, does she suffer from any particularly painful cancer, does her hair fall out and she needs to undergo chemotherapy every day, is she in the advanced stage... How can you Are you crying? God! Didn’t you promise not to be sad?”
"Why do you shed tears so easily." He stretched out his hand in confusion, and wiped my face indiscriminately, "Hurry up and wipe it off. Look at you, don't you look like a man?"
"Brother..." I pressed his hand and said almost in tears, "Why did you even forget your mother? She was already dead. Did you forget that we went to the police station together?" Autopsy?!"
My brother felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body froze.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" I was puzzled by his strange reaction.
"Sorry, I just found out that my mother is dead... Is that woman really dead?" He was silent for a moment, "Where is she buried? My dear brother Jiang~ you can tell brother, she alone People are alone in the ground, and they must be very happy to have someone visit the grave."
I was puzzled by the strange expression of cynicism on his face, but I told him the address without thinking too much.
He repeated the address cautiously, and then confirmed to me: "Is this the place?"
I nodded.
Exactly word for word!
So angry!
Why is my brother's memory still so good? !
He asked, "Do you know how she died?"
"Ah..." I looked at him with a complicated expression, "That's a long story."

*********Memories·three-year-old drowning+mother's death********
How did my mother die?
This matter starts with my drowning when I was three years old.
My brother said that my mother suddenly became interested in going on an outing for some reason, so she secretly carried me out of the crib while my brother was in school.
The bus turned to a minibus and then to a tractor. Before the sun set, the mother and son finally arrived at a remote lake area hundreds of kilometers away from the city.
Then, out of nowhere, I accidentally fell into the water.
And I don't know why, when I fell into the water, my mother was not nearby, so I didn't find it in time.
I don't have any memory of the whole thing, but my brother said it was actually a particularly dangerous day because my heart stopped at one point.
In other words, I was actually someone who had already died once—albeit only for a few seconds.
And the reason why I didn't confess my life in that bottomless cold pool was because when I fell into the water, there happened to be a dumb uncle with a scar on his face nearby. After hearing my help from a distance, he quickly Came here.
Although when he arrived, the lake was completely calm and there were no people to be seen, but he still bravely jumped into the water regardless of the cold temperature of more than ten degrees below zero.
And, after several dives and resurfacing, he finally managed to snatch me back from death at the last moment.
After that, the kind dumb uncle took me to the hospital and paid all the medical expenses for me. After seeing that I woke up and made sure that I was still alive, he left silently without leaving a name.
After that, less than a month later, my mother died.
car accident.
The driver who caused the accident said that she hit it on her own initiative.
But since the driver failed the alcohol test, the responsibility fell on the beer belly with bad breath.
I don't know where my mother got the money to buy life insurance in advance.
So shortly after we went to the police station, we met the insurance company who came to investigate and got a small sum of money. Finally, we escaped the tragic fate of being kicked out to sleep on the bridge because of rent arrears.
【182】
All of the above was told to me by my brother.
I think I'm probably born with a poor memory.
However, the first girl I dated in my life, and also the one with the longest time, sent me a four-word comment when we broke up.
Heartless.
Of course, her original words were much longer than these four words, and the content was even more unpleasant, second only to Qiao Tingting in terms of harshness.And, by a very coincidence, on the day she broke up with me, just like Qiao Tingting, she also put her arms around the waist of the cheating partner.
Drunk, crying, cursing, tearing, and the lovelorn incident in my sophomore year, I have let go of it.
The reason why she suddenly brought up this matter again is mainly because her comment on me was correct to a certain extent.
Therefore, in terms of cause and effect, I probably have a poor memory because I have been drowned, which makes me particularly heartless.
Or... is it the other way around?
In short, although the dumb uncle saved me that day, logically speaking, I should keep his image in my heart and be grateful for the rest of my life.
But I didn't.
Not only not, I even forgot the other party's voice and appearance.
What was even more extreme than forgetting my savior was that I even forgot my own mother.
The process of forgetting is easy.I don't need it at all like I can't pull it out when I am constipated, so I hold back all my strength to exert myself.
I never remembered it, so I forgot it again.
When she was alive, I don't remember much.
But after she died, I miraculously remembered the funeral with only three people.
I remember that the sun was eerily bright that day—the day that should have been snowing, suddenly returned to scorching heat.Even the host of the TV weather station couldn't help expressing that "it's so hot that it's unscientific".
I still remember that I was wearing a particularly festive red cashmere sweater that day, with the white "Merry Christmas" on the top of the dress, and a lot of cartoon reindeer with wings underneath, each grinning happily.
Of course, what impressed me the most was my brother holding my little hand, staring at my adoptive father with a cold expression, watching him take the urn from the staff of the funeral home, and then he took the urn from my adoptive father .
Then, the moment my brother hugged the heavy urn, all the muscles in his face twitched wildly.
That expression was so ferocious that I was taken aback by him.
My brother turned to look at me.
His expression has returned to calm.
So calm...as if the loss of control before was all just my illusion.
He said to me in the tone of a news network host relaying the minutes of the latest meeting of the National Development, Reform and Development Commission today:
"Xu Yan, from now on, there are only two of us left in our family."
I was only a few days away from turning four, and my brother was six and a half years older than me, so my actual age at the time was only ten.
However, when he looked at me, I had the illusion that I was eye-to-eye with an adult.
"But don't be afraid." My brother looked at me and said calmly and indifferently, "I will let you live."
He looked up at the sky.
"I will definitely let you live."
Because his tone was no different from reading a newspaper, I believed it without hesitation, and then laughed carefree.
The weather was really nice that day.
The sun is shining brightly, and the winter sun is warm on the body.
My brother's smile is also warm.
Only the adoptive father who was standing at the side suddenly cried loudly for no reason.
