Chapter 343 See You Again After Seventeen Years
All happiness is by no means without worries and troubles, and all adversities are by no means without comfort and hope.
Bacon once said: Miracles often happen in times of adversity.
These two sentences have been well verified in Zhao Qishui.
The accidental injury of his godson was misfortune and trouble for Zhao Qishui.
But the sudden appearance of his biological son became the greatest miracle in his life.
"Godfather, my brother was in the same prison as me. His nickname was Little Wolf."
"At that time, he said he was from Dalang Mountain, but he didn't tell me about his background, so I never thought about it."
He Shu raised his hand, hooked Zhao Qishui's hand, and gently held it.
"Godfather, my brother has been transferred to the prison in this city. If you feel ready, let my uncle take you to see him."
Zhao Qishui's hands were shaking, his body was shaking, and his lips were shaking.
"He's in jail?"
"Well, my brother was kidnapped when he was a child. He wandered around with others and stole things. When he was less than 18 years old, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison for robbery and injury."
When Zhao Qishui heard about his own son's experience, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhu Yu was the most sentimental. She said, "Brother, as long as we can find her, as long as she is still alive, that's enough. The child doesn't want this to , and she didn't meet a good person."
Zhao Qishui shook his head and tears came out.
He wiped his face and said, "I don't think it's bad for him to be in prison. I just... I regret that I didn't take good care of my child... After all these years, my son... is still alive..."
At this point, Zhao Qishui burst into tears.
He covered his face with his hands, which were so rough from years of repairing cars that they could not be washed clean, and cried bitterly.
Tears also flowed from the corners of He Shu's eyes. He could feel his godfather's mood at the moment.
After calming down for a while, Zhao Qishui stood up and said to Qi Zhijun, "Brother, can I see my child now?"
Qi Zhijun nodded: "Yes, I will arrange it for you right away."
Zhao Qishui nodded repeatedly, so excited that he didn't know what to do.
Then he saw that He Shu's eyes were red on the hospital bed, and he calmed down again.
He sat back down and patted He Shu's head: "Godfather has found Zhao Yan, and you now have a brother. Godfather will still take care of you in the future."
He Shu smiled, but it was a little ugly: "My brother and I have a good relationship. It must be because of this fate. When I was in prison, he took good care of me."
Zhao Qishui felt relieved when he heard He Shu say this.
Although He Shu was only his godson, over the past few years, they had been as close as father and son, relying on each other, just like biological children.
He never felt that he helped He Shu. Instead, he felt that He Shu saved him and made up for the loss of his child.
Zhao Qishui was afraid that He Shu would feel disappointed and that he would feel that he no longer wanted him now that he had found his biological son.
He Shu certainly understood this, but he had never thought about this question.
No, I have thought about this before. If my godfather finds Zhao Yan, will he be able to go back to that home in the future?
He Shu asked himself this question, and the answer was that no matter whether his godfather would let him withdraw from his life in the future, he would help his godfather find his biological son back.
And now, although Xiaolang has become Zhao Yan, He Shu thinks carefully that with Xiaolang's personality, they will never do anything that will embarrass their godfather.
Qi Zhijun contacted the prison, arranged a time and told Zhao Qishui.
When Zhao Qishui heard that he could go now, he half lifted his butt and looked at He Shu again.
"Godfather, go ahead and see my brother, then come back and tell me what expression he has." He Shu said with a smile.
Zhao Qishui said yes softly, patted He Shu's hand, and followed Qi Zhijun out of the hospital.
Zhu Yu walked to the bedside and touched He Shu's head, but said nothing...
In the Metropolitan Prison, Xiaolang was brought out again and entered the small visiting room. He saw Zhao Qishui at first sight.
My eyes fell on his face and I couldn't move them away.
He stood still at the door, and only after the supervisor urged him a few words did he slowly move forward.
Zhao Qishui also stared at the little wolf closely. The first time he saw it, he was mentally prepared.
But he still couldn't believe that the was his once plump and muscular Zhao Yan.
The biological father and son met again after many years, and they looked at each other as strangers, which made Zhao Qishui extremely sad.
"You... do you remember me?" Zhao Qishui asked in a trembling voice.
Xiaolang nodded and was silent for a while before speaking: "He Shu showed me your photo, and I remembered it then."
After saying that, he added: "I didn't remember it before, but I remember it after seeing the photo."
Xiaolang spoke Mandarin with a Nanzhan accent, and there was no northern flavor in his speech at all.
Zhao Qishui felt upset: "I knew you forgot. If you remembered, you would definitely go home."
Compared with Zhao Qishui's excitement, the little wolf seemed exceptionally calm.
In fact, when He Shu showed him the photos in Nanzhan, he recalled some scattered fragments of memory.
But he was only four years old when he lost it, so he only has a vague impression of it.
Maybe it was because he really liked pandas when he was a child, or maybe it was because the man in front of him was really kind to him when he was a child.
It left a deep impression on him, so the little wolf could remember some things from that time.
Now, seventeen years have passed, and there is no trace of Zhao Yan in Xiaolang. He couldn't even speak Mandarin well before going to prison.
The sudden appearance of his biological father, whom he had been looking for for seventeen years, made the little wolf feel unreal.
Looking at the vaguely familiar face opposite him, it seemed much older than the impression he remembered.
The little wolf lowered his head, unwilling to continue looking at him.
He told He Shu that he couldn't remember, but in fact he didn't want to recognize Zhao Qishui, because he felt that after Zhao Qishui got to know him, he would definitely not come to recognize him again.
I remember that in his large homeless family, there was a boy named Brother Chen, who was two years older than him. He was kidnapped by a trafficker, had his hands and feet broken, and was left on the street to beg for money.
Later, I don't know how he was bought by his father, and he followed the little wolf and his friends to the streets every day to act pitiful.
Little Wolf's job at that time was to carry the skinny Brother Chen to the street every day and carry him back at night.
Brother Chen told the little wolf countless times that he hoped his biological parents could find him and save him.
His wish really came true one afternoon. Little Wolf saw Brother Chen desperately trying to hook a woman's trouser leg with his disabled hand.
He kept calling "Mom" and his face was full of surprise and excitement.
Xiaolang knew that the woman was really Chen Ge's mother, because when she saw Chen Ge, she showed an expression of shock and surprise, and hugged him all of a sudden.
The two people hugged each other and cried on the street. Little Wolf should have told their father at that time, but seeing the situation, he held back and did not move.
Just when Xiaolang thought that Brother Chen would escape from the suffering and be taken away by his biological mother, the woman became excited and let go of Brother Chen.
She looked at Brother Chen's disabled and twisted limbs with a complicated expression, then suddenly pushed him away and ran away.
The little wolf remembered that afternoon, Brother Chen crawled on the ground and chased for a long time, his limbs were worn out but he still couldn't catch up.
When it was getting dark, the little wolf went and carried him back.
Not long after that, one afternoon, the taciturn Chen was begging for money on the street when he deliberately rolled under the wheels of a speeding car...
