Chapter 84 Past Events.
Jiangnan failed in the end, and was dragged half-dragged by Han Wenfang to the rest area, plopped on the bench, and limply leaned against Jiang Bei, showing with actions that my cabinet door had floated to the Pacific Ocean, you guys It is impossible for me to go back and inherit the family business.
Unexpectedly, Han Wenfang on the opposite side didn't notice the ambiguous behavior of the two at all, and his eyes were still glued to Jiangnan's face.
The outdoor lighting was dim, softening the wrinkles and sagging skin around her eyes. She was crying again, and the tip of her nose was also red. At first glance, she had a coquettish attitude similar to that of Jiangnan.
She asked, "Where's your mother?"
Jiang Nan blurted out: "Dead."
This is the rhythm of chatting to death.
Jiang Bei held his hand under the table, exerted strength, and signaled him to speak properly.
Jiangnan understood the leader's intentions, and immediately changed his words: "Oh, I committed suicide."
Jiang Bei: "..."
You might as well be dead.
Jiang Nan's tone of voice was calm, as if it was someone else's mother who died, and it had nothing to do with him.
Han Wenfang didn't show any surprise when he heard the words, and lowered his head in a daze: "When did it happen?"
"About ten...one, two, three, four years ago." Jiang Nan didn't answer well.
Only then did Han Wenfang raise her head and leaned slightly: "Ten years ago, how old were you? Who did you date?"
"Brother," Jiang Nan grabbed Jiang Bei's hand and shook it showing off, "Brother said he raised me."
Han Wenfang glanced at Jiang Bei, then asked, "What about your brother?"
Jiang Nan: "It's cold too."
Jiangnan answered every question, she opened her mouth to talk nonsense anyway, the old and the young were not on the same channel at all, but Han Wenfang didn't care, maybe because her son died and her father died just now, she didn't have time to think about anything else, and she didn't receive it. The urgency to go to the south of the Yangtze River.Looking at the eldest nephew who had just been found, he carefully asked about the past, and finally said:
"My elder brother is sorry for you."
"No way," Jiang Nan wrinkled his nose, "Didn't you make it up to me? Tsk, it's a pity my mother didn't wait until this day, otherwise she would never want to die... Aww!"
On the side of Jiangnan's head, Jiang Bei's undulating and icy side face met his eyes, but it didn't extinguish his anger: "What are you stepping on me for?"
Jiang Bei ignored him, and forcibly drew Han Wenfang's attention away from Jiangnan, asking, "What happened 20 years ago, and how did Han Wenzhou die?"
"As you heard, a car accident." Han Wenfang smiled bitterly, "The land where the villa was built was originally our family's ancestral home, and later the old house was demolished and a new one was built. My father is very traditional...you can even say it is A pedantic person, he wants to guard the land of the ancestral house, and my elder brother lives with him in the villa. One night, my dad wanted to find my elder brother, but found that he was missing. Wen Jing and I were married at that time, so we didn’t live with them , my dad came to my house in the middle of the night to look for my elder brother, but he couldn't find anyone after searching all night."
"You know that there was an accident in early 2000 and the family members could not be contacted in time. It was not until the third day that someone came to inform us that my elder brother had a car accident on the border of Ning'an City. The car fell off a cliff and he died on the spot."
Jiang Bei listened, subconsciously clenched Jiang Nan's hand, but Jiang Nan was much more solid than he imagined, neither making trouble nor trying to coax, his chin resting on the table, eyelids drooping, drowsy, as if he had a shield No matter what outsiders say, it has nothing to do with him. They only want to talk about ideals with Zhou Gong, and they are indifferent to the secular ethics.
Jiang Bei then asked: "How did you deal with the car accident in the end?"
"Traffic accident." Han Wenfang wiped the corners of his eyes and looked at Jiangnan's face. "My elder brother drove out in the middle of the night and said it was caused by fatigue driving, but my father didn't think so. He asked the Ning'an City Police to open a case for investigation. , and in the ravine again, what can be found? In the end, nothing happened."
Although Jiang Bei had already heard this version among the many speculations about the cause of Han Wenzhou's death, but hearing Han Wenfang's account with his own ears gave him a different state of mind, because it was none other than Jiangnan's father who died. Alive, Jiangnan should grow up happily.
Jiang Bei's tongue had an inexplicable bitter taste, which slid down his throat and stuck in his throat for a long time.He looked at Jiangnan's eyelashes, which were gently and slowly fanning, and felt that it was actually quite good now. After all, Jiangnan was already muddy enough. If he was soaked in money, it might be even muddier. Maybe what was waiting for him were bars and sewing machines. They won't meet again.
"Han Wenzhou should have a driver. Why did he drive to Ning'an City alone in the middle of the night?" When asked the key question, he didn't know whether his hands or Jiang Nan's were sweating a little. Jiang Bei clearly felt that the place where his palms touched was extremely hot and humid .
"This matter started earlier," Han Wenfang glanced timidly at Jiangnan, saw the young man tilted his head as if he had fallen asleep, and then whispered, "My elder brother married a wife before he went abroad, it was him My high school classmate, also known as a wife by outsiders. At that time, my elder brother was young and energetic, and he didn’t think too much about it. He just wanted to get married, but my dad worked hard to provide for him for more than ten years, and even Wen Jing and I didn’t care much about it. He refused to let his son get married early, thinking that his life would be over if he got married, so he refused to agree to this marriage and asked my elder brother to go abroad. My elder brother is also stubborn and negotiated terms with my father."
Jiang Bei guessed a bit, and took the words: "Han Wenzhou told the old man that as long as he gets married, he will go abroad?"
Han Wenfang nodded: "Yes, my elder brother patted his chest and promised that his studies will not be affected by marriage."
Jiang Bei: "The old man agrees?"
"He can't disagree," Han Wenfang pulled out a forced smile, "My elder brother is very stubborn, and he's arguing with my dad. My dad won't see his son who worked so hard to give up halfway, so he can only agree, but wait. As soon as my elder brother went abroad, my father changed again, and he drove my sister-in-law away."
Although Han Cheng is dead, it is logical that he shouldn't talk about the dead behind his back, but Jiang Bei doesn't understand the old man's arbitrariness.
Han Wenfang was still smiling, with a bitter taste in every pore: "I believe you can tell that my dad is an old-school person who loves his son and has high hopes for my elder brother. Congress brought the whole family up, so he thought my sister-in-law had low education and was not good enough for my elder brother or our family, so he drove her away. I tried to persuade my dad, but he didn't listen, and the relationship between me and his old man was also because of this. It's very noisy."
At the beginning of 2000, a returnee was indeed worth more than 100 million yuan. Not to mention before, even now, the contempt for academic qualifications still exists, and it is important to be of a good family.
Jiang Bei knew that Han Wenfang was only talking about "appetizers", so he asked, "What happened next?"
"later……"
With a sound of "bang dong", Jiang Nan's head fell on the table, as if he was asleep, but Jiang Bei knew that he just didn't know how to express his opinion on this matter, and was just escaping. He couldn't receive Han Wenfang when he closed his eyes. Love the sorry look.
Han Wenfang stared at his sleeping face for a while, wanted to reach out to touch him but didn't dare, twisted the corner of his clothes awkwardly: "Later, my elder brother returned to China, probably he followed my father, and because he was busy with work, he found that his wife was missing. Didn't ask too much."
Jiang Bei said: "Perhaps Han Wenzhou guessed that the old man would drive people away, so he didn't ask."
"No," Han Wenfang denied, and glanced at Jiangnan again, "My elder brother... how should I put it, from a woman's point of view, he is indeed not a good man worth entrusting for life. Pretty woman back."
Just as Jiang Bei was about to say something, Jiang Nan suddenly opened his eyes and said, "No wonder some people say that Han Wenzhou likes to collect beautiful things."
Han Wenfang wanted to explain, but Jiang Nan closed his eyes and tilted his head, and fell asleep, as if he had just dreamed about it, and it was so creepy in the middle of the night.
After a long silence, Han Wenfang said: "...Yes, that woman is the mother of this brat. My elder brother likes her very much, and even brought her home to live with."
Jiang Bei thought to himself: "The old man probably didn't agree either."
No matter how beautiful a woman is, she is not good enough for Han Cheng's returnee son, let alone a beautiful woman of unknown origin, who knows how many people have coveted her outside.
Han Wenfang let out a long breath, looked at the night that was dyed red by neon lights, and her thoughts drifted back to decades ago.
"My dad didn't agree, but my elder brother was getting older at the time, and my dad wanted to have a grandson, and the woman happened to be pregnant. After my elder brother brought the woman home, he didn't let her go out and kept her at home, so the child was My dad looked at the conceived one and was sure it was from the Han family, so he didn't say anything."
At this time, Jiangnan lied to the corpse again: "Han Cheng only wants grandchildren. Also, I said how my mother likes to lock people in the house. I learned it from Han Wenzhou."
This man was talking tonight with a gun belt. Great, his tone was quite dissatisfied.
Han Wenfang didn't wait for him to close his eyes, and quickly explained: "No, at least your mother is doing well in my house."
"Of course Canary had a good life, so good that she couldn't figure it out and committed suicide later."
"I..." Han Wenfang opened his mouth, unable to utter a weak explanation, "My elder brother is sorry for you."
Jiang Bei interrupted them and asked Jiang Nan to continue, probably causing Han Wenfang a heart attack.
"According to what you said, his mother had a good life in the Han family, but Jiang Nan told me that his mother was alone as long as he could remember, and she left the Han family with her child in the end, right? Why?"
"Because..." Han Wenfang shuddered violently, as if she had thought of something terrible, "Because my elder brother's wife has returned. After more than ten years, she brought her son back."
The night in the hospital was very quiet, the wind was blowing and the leaves were rustling, and even the slight breathing of the three of them added a sense of paradox to the boundless night.
"My sister-in-law is back..." Han Wenfang murmured softly, "She said she wanted her son to recognize his ancestors, but that's not the case. She was sick and desperate to find my elder brother. When my father chased my sister-in-law away, I didn't know she was pregnant at all, and somehow brought a boy back and said it was from the Han family. My dad didn't recognize it, thinking that my sister-in-law was trying to blackmail our family. But at that time, my elder brother was already famous, and it would definitely have an impact on him if it got out. , He sent someone to do a paternity test to confirm that the boy was his own, but my dad still didn't believe it, it just so happened that the kid's mother gave birth to a pair of twins, also boys."
Jiang Bei could probably guess Han Cheng's mood at that time. Seeing the grandchildren he was pregnant with were born into the world, and they were twins. He was delighted to have two grandchildren at once. A child of unknown origin.
Jiang Bei asked: "The old man drove the mother and son away again?"
"No," Han Wenfang shook her head, "At that time, my father was very happy, and he was busy looking for a master in Beijing to name his grandson, and he even started preparing for the [-]-day banquet not long after the child was born. Yes. Under pressure, my elder brother took the opportunity to arrange my sister-in-law and the others into the villa, in order to stop my sister-in-law from talking nonsense."
Jiang Nan couldn't listen anymore, straightened up and dusted off his clothes, and sat like needles: "The main wife and my concubine live under the same roof. If you don't know it, you think your family came from the Qing Dynasty. Why, the main wife was pissed off by my mother in the end." gone?"
"No, my sister-in-law was very ill and died shortly after moving into the villa, leaving only one son. Although she is in her teens, it is more likely that she will not be able to support a family, but my elder brother also took a paternity test. It’s my own, so I’ll raise it.” Han Wenfang was very afraid of Jiangnan, she buried her head and didn’t dare to look at him, and she didn’t care, no matter how Jiangnan swore at people, no matter how big or small, Han Wenfang could only bear it.
The story has developed to this point, according to the normal routine, the wife is dead, the concubine should be in charge, and the mother is more expensive than the child, so it is right to reach the pinnacle of life.
However, things are impermanent.
Han Wenfang's voice became smaller and smaller: "After my sister-in-law died, for some reason, your mother became very afraid of the child brought by my sister-in-law. At first, she reasoned with him, saying that your two brothers are his half-brothers. Mother’s younger brother, he is still young, so he needs to be taken care of carefully, and he has to support each other when he grows up. Later, your mother may have postpartum depression, and the situation became more and more serious. She didn’t allow the child to touch the two of you until one day the child wanted to hug you, Your mother broke out completely, and took the two of you away without leaving a word, when you left, you two hadn't reached [-] days, and you didn't have time to get your name."
Jiang Nan finally became interested: "So you guys gave me a nickname, Little Ghost?"
"That's not counting nicknames," Han Wenfang said. "Your grandfather thinks that you two are playing a little naughty. The left and right names haven't been decided. Everyone calls you like ghosts."
Jiang Nan muttered in a low voice: "It's better to be called naughty."
As expected, he got kicked again.
Han Wenfang was immersed in her own world, didn't hear what Jiangnan said, and said to herself: "Because of this, my father doesn't want to see that child even more. His old man and my elder brother have been looking for you for a long time. Suddenly one day, the person sent out said I replied that you seem to be in Ning'an City, my elder brother didn't even take a breath, and drove there in a hurry in the middle of the night, and got into a car accident."
"When my elder brother died, my father and grandson didn't get anything. He took all his anger on that child. The child said whether he was old or young, and finally ran away."
A good family fell apart. The pedantic and stubborn Han Cheng was responsible, and the promiscuous Han Wenzhou was also responsible. In addition, Han Cheng put all his energy on the eldest son. When Han Wenzhou died, there was no one in the entire Han family. Being able to take over the industry, Ziweixing, who had just ascended to the sky, crashed and left behind a large amount of inheritance, which made the family look good and separated for 20 years, and finally led to tragedy again.
"After my elder brother died, my dad was devastated, but I know he couldn't let go of the twin grandsons in his heart." Han Wenfang suddenly came alive, leaning over and grabbing Jiang Bei's sleeve, "Although my dad didn't look for the grandson with any fanfare, but I I understand that he can't let it go, my elder brother's inheritance should be inherited by his son, I understand, and I often tell Tang Zhiyu, let him not think about it, no matter how difficult it is to pay the IOU."
When Han Wenfang talked about Tang Zhiyu, tears streamed down his face: "Officer Jiang, I'm going to reveal the mess of our family in front of you. I want to let little...Jiangnan know my life experience, and I also want to tell you, It is impossible for my son to murder my father because of property disputes. He is dead, but I can't let him bear the charge of a murderer. I know the son I raised best, and I have to give my father an explanation."
Jiang Bei was in a dilemma. The kidnapping happened in Ning'an City, but the arson was in Dongyang City, and the body was also found in Dongyang City. With his pissing nature, as long as no one is watching from above, he will definitely be able to write a script and write the closing report, unless there is a twist.
Jiang Bei comforted: "I will try my best."
It may be because he ran up and down about this matter before, and after finding Tang Zhiyu's body, he was not in a hurry to make a conclusion, and insisted on investigating, so that Tang Zhiyu temporarily avoided becoming a suspect, or the title "elder nephew's brother" gave him the title After putting on a thick filter, Han Wenfang trusted him, relieved slightly, and then turned his attention back to Jiangnan, blushingly said:
"Your grandfather has been looking for you for the rest of your life, and now your brother is gone. I know it's difficult for you, but for the sake of his being an old man, can you..."
What should come will always come.
"If you think too much, I'm not in trouble," Jiangnan propped his head, his eyes reflected the confused night, "Han Cheng only wants a grandson with a handle, not 'Jiangnan', if I leave, what will my brother do? Woolen cloth?"
He turned his head and stared at Jiang Bei: "Do you want 'Jiangnan'? If so, take me home now, I'm sleepy brother."
Jiang Bei also looked back at him.
A few seconds later, Jiang Bei let out a sigh of relief and nodded towards Han Wenfang: "I will do my best for your son's matter, and please cooperate with the police well before the investigation results come out. In addition, my condolences will change."
After speaking, he got up and pulled Jiang Nan, and left under Han Wenfang's astonished gaze.
