Chapter 97

As soon as this question came out, a look of pain flashed quickly in Chu Lin's eyes.After a long time, he said: "It's a long story. It was more than ten years ago, and the family's conditions were not good. I would chop firewood and go to the city to sell it every day. That day, as usual, I picked firewood in the middle of the night. I went out with firewood, and when I arrived in the city, it was already noon the next day. Because I often sell firewood, I have a few regular customers."

"That day, I sold the firewood to one of the houses. After selling the firewood, I was about to go home. Passing by a yard, I saw a man coming out with a little girl on his back. He put the girl on the side of the road, and then ran into the yard."

"Watching him throw the little girl outside, I thought he didn't want the child at first. Later, when I heard the little girl crying, I realized that the yard was on fire. I wanted to help, but the fire suddenly started. I can only watch helplessly as the man went in and never came out again."

"Later, I stayed by the little girl's side and waited with her. I waited until she stopped crying, was tired, and the house was burned to ruins. Then I took the little girl away."

"I brought the child home. After she woke up, she kept crying, looking for her father, looking for her mother. It was useless for me and your sister-in-law to coax her. Until she was tired from crying and fell asleep, this It's better."

"She just cried to sleep, and cried in sleep, and it lasted for half a month. Then one day, she suddenly stopped crying and didn't look for her parents. We thought she had figured it out, but later we found out that she had forgotten Forget what happened before, even her parents have forgotten."

"Since then, she started calling me and your sister-in-law's parents, and we raised her as our own daughter. We didn't realize that we remembered the past until you found her."

Jing Che was taken aback for a moment, speechless for a long time.He didn't expect it to be like this, but he forgot what happened before.

But that day when he went to find her and told her that he was her uncle, he didn't notice any difference.When did her memory come back?
But right now is not the time to get to the bottom of it.What's more, even if he asked Chu Lin, he didn't know.For this reason, after recovering, Jing Che asked, "Brother Chu, apart from bringing Ranran back that day, did you find anything else?"

"Found?" Chu Lin frowned, thought hard for a while, and finally shook his head.At that time, his mind was all on his little daughter, so he had no time to care about anything else.

Jing Che was a little disappointed, but still didn't want to give up, and said, "Brother Chu, think about it carefully and see if there is anything unusual."

Chu Lin is not a fool either, he just didn't hear it at first.When Jing Che mentioned it again, he immediately understood the meaning behind his words, and couldn't help being a little surprised, and asked, "Her uncle, what do you mean?"

"Brother Chu, I won't hide it from you. I suspect that the fire in Ranran's house was deliberately set on fire." Jing Che directly expressed his doubts, and Chu Lin's expression became serious.

"Her uncle, to tell you the truth, after I brought Ranran back, I went to the city several times and inquired about the fire. But the comrades at the police station told me that it was an accident."

"Accidents, many accidents in this world are man-made."

"This?" Chu Lin was speechless.The comrades at the police station said it was an accident, so he really believed it was an accident.

But if it was not an accident, then how cruel is the person behind it to do such a thing of burning a living person to death.

"Brother Chu, please think about it again when you have time. Even if you can think of a little abnormality, it is a clue for me and Ranran."

"Okay, I have time to think about it." Chu Lin agreed.In any case, Chu Anran is also his daughter now, and she should do her best.

When the two walked around the village and went back, they changed from two to three.They went to a food processing factory and called Chu Han to go home together.

Back home, Chu Anran and her mother Liu Jia had already prepared the meals and were preparing to set the table.However, Grandpa Chu and Elder Zheng were still chatting. Seeing Grandma Chu come out with dishes, the two old people stopped talking.

"Brother Zheng, it's time to eat. Let's go wash our hands and eat." Grandpa Chu stood up first and called Mr. Zheng to wash his hands in the yard.

Elder Zheng followed and went out, Yang Zhi had already fetched water for them.Because he was afraid that the two old people would be cold, he deliberately mixed hot water in the basin.

The two had just finished washing their hands. When they saw Chu Lin bring Jing Che and his son back, Grandma Chu said with a smile, "It's time to come back. Wash your hands and eat."

After the big men finished washing, the women had already put the food on the table.

Today's dishes are quite rich, including chicken, meat, fish, and soup.Of course, vegetables are essential.

Speaking of it, it is better to be a farmer, even in winter, there are vegetables to eat.Just like now, there are several vegetables on the table, shredded cabbage, shredded pork with celery, eggs with leeks, spinach with garlic, and a radish rib soup.

In addition to green vegetables, there are also a lot of hard vegetables, there are six, braised pork, boiled fish fillets, stewed chicken with mushrooms, pickled pork with preserved vegetables, fried bacon with green peppers, and diced chicken with spicy peppers.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Jing Che couldn't help but praised: "Sister-in-law's cooking is really good. The dishes on the table are full of flavors and flavors. Just smelling it will whet your appetite."

"Her uncle, don't praise me. These dishes are all fried by Ranran. Her cooking skills are much better than mine. You should try more later."

"Is this dish cooked by Ranran?" Elder Zheng was surprised when he heard the words, he didn't expect that this dish, which is comparable to that made by a hotel chef, was made by a little girl named Chu Anran.

"Yes, uncle, you can eat more later. The boiled fish fillet is smooth and tender, the stewed chicken with mushrooms is rich in flavor, and the braised pork is soft and glutinous, and the preserved vegetables are also rotten. It is suitable for the elderly." .”

"Okay, I will definitely taste it." Mr. Zheng laughed, and took the lead in lowering his chopsticks towards the braised pork.

Yang Zhi watched and wanted to stop him, but in the end he didn't say anything.Forget it, Mr. Zheng is rarely happy today, so let him have a bite.

After Mr. Zheng paid for it, the dish was really good. Compared with those big restaurants in Beijing, this braised pork is more authentic.If he hadn't considered his body, he would definitely eat a few more pieces.

Jing Che didn't have Mr. Zheng's worries, he kept chopping his chopsticks, eating so happily.

As for Yang Zhi eating silently, he also kept chopsticks.More than a dozen dishes, after a meal, I ate cleanly.All of them ate until their waists rolled, and they were all full.
