Lin Qingyin nodded to the grandfather and grandson, and took a careful look at Jiang Zhengning’s face: “You left more than 50 years ago? When you left your hometown, you were only six years old, right?”
The second sentence made the old man’s eyes light up, and he nodded again and again: “Yes, yes, the year I left was just after my sixth birthday.” Recalling the past, the old man was very emotional: “I remember when I left that year, we were in a hurry. I was taken into the car before I even finished the steamed pastry my mother gave me, so I cried a lot because of this.”
Lin Qingyin continued: “You have an older brother and an older sister who left together, but the younger brother has been separated for many years? Are you looking for your hometown or your younger brother?”
Jiang Zhengning looked at Lin Qingyin in shock. He only told Jiang Wei about the search for relatives. He didn’t have time to go into details. He heard from his grandson that there was a girl in the fortune telling club in school, who was very good at fortune telling and might help him to find relatives. He thought it was just predicting the direction he should look for. He didn’t expect that the little girl could see things. He couldn’t help but be surprised.
Since this young master can even figure out this matter, it must be no problem to find someone. Jiang Zhengning was so excited that he quickly said: “I know the approximate location of my hometown, I only want to find my long-lost brother.”
Seeing that the old man was a little excited, Jiang Wei put the freshly ordered juice in front of him: “Grandpa, speak slowly, don’t worry.”
After drinking a sip of juice, Jiang Zhengning calmed down and slowly told the events of the year: “Actually, I was young at that time, so I can’t remember many things. I only remember that day was just after my birthday. After 2 days, I was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night. My mother hurriedly called me up and put on my clothes and put me in the car. My eldest sister and eldest brother were already in the car. My father was packing luggage in the trunk, then I asked him where we were going. He said we were going to a distant place. At that time, my sister became anxious when she heard that and said that my younger brother was still at our nanny’s house and haven’t come back. We should go there and take my brother with us. My mother covered her mouth and cried. When we got to the pier, my sister asked again, but our nanny’s house is too far away, and we didn’t have time to pick him up.”
Jiang Zhengning sighed and continued: “I didn’t know what happened when I was young, but my sister and brother’s expressions were heavy. It was not until we went to Hong Kong that I realized I hadn’t seen my brother for a long time. I asked my mother where my brother was. My mother cried, and my elder sister took me away and said that I should not mention my brother in front of my mother in the future, or else my mother would be sad, so I never dared to ask again. ”
After wiping the tears on the corners of his eyes with a tissue, Jiang Zhengning said: “It wasn’t until I became an adult and I went out for a walk with my eldest sister, that she mentioned this matter to me again.”
