Chapter 166 The Name of Attachment

The day was over, when Chen Xi just got the phone, the assistant Xiao Zhang said hesitantly: "Sister Xi, someone who claims to be your brother-in-law sent you a private message today..."

"My what?"

"Brother-in-law!"

There are countless people who call themselves Chen Xi's "husband" and "father", but it is rare to see those who have a hobby of being "brother-in-law".Chen Xi's habit of browsing private messages every day is due to the missing person notice published on the public platform five years ago.In the beginning, she received countless messages about Wei Le, all of them were liars.As time goes on, even the liars are less.

"Let me see what my good brother-in-law said?" Chen Xi jokingly opened a private message, and a photo of a strange woman came into view.She smiled and said, "It seems that this is my sister!"

Xiao Zhang also laughed together.Smiling and laughing, she noticed that Chen Xi was staring at the photo, and her expression gradually changed.

This woman has big eyes, and a familiar outline can be vaguely seen on her fleshy face.Sister... Lele!This is Wei Le, a 33-year-old Wei Le that Chen Xi has never seen before!

The message from the "brother-in-law" said that his wife's name is "Li Xin", who has been married to him for two years, has a lack of IQ, can't tell where he is from, and doesn't remember any other relatives in the family.A few days ago, she accidentally saw the latest hot news, pointing at Chen Xi and calling her sister-in-law.She often talks nonsense, and no one takes it to heart. "Brother-in-law" jokingly showed her another video of "sister-in-law" before going to bed, but she shed tears staring at the picture of Chen Xi and her rumored boyfriend walking the dog, and she didn't know anything anymore. "Brother-in-law" kept an eye out, looked at Chen Xi's Weibo, and found a missing person information with a huge reward. Isn't the photo on it exactly what "Li Xin" used to look like?

The private message of "brother-in-law" was followed by the contact information and address, and Chen Xi followed the phone number above to call. After a brief exchange with the strange man, Wei Le's timid voice came from the other end of the phone.

No one expected that the person who had been looking for five years would appear in this way.Wei Jia was silent for a long time when he received the news, but Chen Xi could hear his unusual breathing.She was worried and had to ask for leave from the film crew to accompany him to pick up Wei Le.

It was a small town in the southeast near the sea, the humid air was filled with the smell of the sea, the locals spoke a tongue-twisting dialect, and their footsteps were slow.On the old street in the center of the town, the sun just went down, and just in time for meals, the small restaurant that can accommodate a dozen tables was full of diners. The little boss who was supposed to be busy with business was restless, so he picked seafood for customers a few times. Wrong two catties.At this time, a man and a woman came in a hurry. Both of them were tall and straight. The woman was wearing a mask, and the man was in his early thirties.He knew that the person he was waiting for had finally come.

Wei Jia looked up at the signboard of "Youxin Restaurant", and Chen Xi waved to the small boss who came up to him: "Are you Ma Xiaoyou?"

"Everyone calls me Xiaoyou." The little boss had a confused smile on his round face, and he didn't know where to put his hands, so he called out in a panic, "Chen...no, sister-in-law...brother! "

Chen Xi turned his head to look at Wei Jia, with no expression on his face, he spoke very little this way, as if he was still drifting in the gap between the past and reality.She glared at Ma Xiaoyou: "What are you calling me! Your name is Ma Xiaoyou, and you will probably be gone soon. Where's Wei Le?"

"She's upstairs, and I'll take you up there right now."

Ma Xiaoyou didn't dare to pant, and led them a few steps, only to find that the net bag for fishing was still in his hand, he hurriedly turned around and handed it to the waiter, and sipped at the waiter who couldn't control his eyes: "What are you looking at, go to work!"

Climbing up the wooden stairs at the back of the store, Ma Xiaoyou opened the beaded curtain and walked into the room first: "Xin, your brother and sister-in-law are here!"

The stairs were narrow and steep, Wei Jia lagged behind, but he could already hear soft humming from inside the house.For many people, this song is just the chorus part of Sun Jianchuan's popular song "When She Laughs", but Wei Jia's eyes turned red instantly.

His arm ached suddenly like being bitten by an ant, and Chen Xi almost pulled a hair off his hand.She said to the timid people close to her hometown: "It's right to be in pain, it's not a dream!"

The lighting in the room was soft, and as soon as Chen Xi entered, she could smell diapers and milk.Wei Le sat on the edge of the bed, tilted his head to look at the visitor, and held a baby in his arms.

"Where did the child come from? Lele gave birth to you?" Chen Xi was taken aback, and glanced at Ma Xiaoyou.

"Yes, yes! The child is three months old, and it's a girl... Didn't I tell you?" Ma Xiaoyou was a little afraid of the new in-laws, whether it was the taciturn elder brother or the coercive sister-in-law.He thought that one day he might be able to find his wife's natal family, but he never expected that it would be someone who had appeared in the news.

What Chen Xi was thinking about was that Lele would marry Feng Cheng for two years, and there would be a lot of trouble because she couldn't have a child—who was the problem?Under Wei Le's probing eyes, she took off her mask and forced a smile: "Lele, it's me! Do you remember me? I'm your sister-in-law, and your brother is here too!"

Wei Le stared blankly at the person beside Chen Xi, and said for a long time, "It's not brother...it's Jiajia."

Wei Jia stepped forward hastily, but Wei Le looked at the child in his arms with a confused expression: "Jia Jia?"

"Oh, Jiajia is our daughter. This is brother, call me brother!" Ma Xiaoyou pulled Wei Le's clothes, and smiled at Chen Xi and Wei Jia apologetically, "She sometimes gets confused, my girl's nickname is It's called Jiajia."

Wei Le looked at his arms for a while, and in front of him for a while, muttering repeatedly: "Jiajia, Jiajia..."

Chen Xi coughed lightly, and called the anxious Ma Xiaoyou aside to make room for the siblings.

Wei Jia sat on the small stool beside the bed and asked with a vibrato, "Where did you go? Tell me! Where did you go that morning?"

Ke Weile hugged her daughter tightly and said, "I didn't go anywhere, wasn't I here?" She was at least thirty to forty catties heavier than before she lost her body, she was wearing a large floral pajamas, and she was still breastfeeding The unique fatigue of a woman, the delicate and small facial features are all squeezed into the flesh, and it is completely different from the charming appearance in the yacht photo, except that the eyes are still ignorant.The years of separation, pain, and unbearableness are like the wind passing by the bird's feathers, leaving no trace in her eyes.

"Xiaoyou, I've been breastfed. I want to check my phone!"

"Hey!" Ma Xiaoyou came up to pick up the child, handed the phone to Wei Le, and smiled dryly at the brother-in-law next to the bed, "She will watch TV dramas at this point, and she will make trouble if she doesn't watch, there is no way."

Chen Xi asked Ma Xiaoyou and Wei Le how they met.Ma Xiaoyou entered a cooking school after graduating from junior high school, and later worked as a helper in a seafood restaurant in Beijing.Because of his dexterity and willingness to endure hardships, the chef of the restaurant accepted him as an apprentice, and took him away two years ago when he changed jobs.His master cooks authentic Cantonese cuisine, and his new job is to be a full-time cook for a well-known person's private house. Ma Xiaoyou is in charge of helping him, and he often goes in and out of that small building, so he met "Li Xin" who lives there.

The male owner of the small building only needs a chef to come to cook when he returns home. Usually, only one nanny is left to take care of the up and down, and take care of the canaries in the building by the way.Ma Xiaoyou will deliver fresh ingredients every other day.In his eyes, Xinxin is a silly girl with a good heart.After getting acquainted, she praised his noodles better than the seafood of the master chef, told him the plot of the TV series, boiled water and poured tea for him, and clumsily wrapped gauze on his hands when he cut vegetables and hurt his hands.This is the rare warmth felt by Ma Xiaoyou, who lost her parents when she was young, and has no brothers, sisters or family.And what about Xinxin?The male master is quite gentle to her, but he may not show up several times a month... She is probably lonely too.

Ma Xiaoyou has absolutely no intention of coveting Xinxin, nor does he have the courage.A year and a half ago, the male owner of the small building disappeared out of thin air.Master hasn't received the notice to start work for a long time, Ma Xiaoyou came to deliver food, and found that the nanny had disappeared, and the public officials came to the small building to take stock of property.He didn't dare to ask any more questions, he just cared about his heart, and finally found her in the utility room at the attic.She shivered and shivered, and her trousers were wet, and it seemed that she hadn't got a drop of water for at least a day and a night.

The public officials did not expect that there was a big living person hiding in this house, and he was still mentally retarded.They couldn't find any clues from the girl, and they planned to send her home, but she didn't have an ID card, and they couldn't even tell where she came from.Ma Xiaoyou gave Xinxin a bowl of noodles, watched her sucking hard, and even raised his head to smile at him, his heart was moved, and he asked Xinxin if he would go back to his hometown with him, and he would take care of her from now on!Not sure if Xinxin understood the meaning of this, she nodded with a noodle in her mouth.

So Ma Xiaoyou resigned from his master, quietly took his new wife back to his birthplace, and opened this small restaurant with years of savings.He has good cooking skills, a lively mind, a kind face, and a prosperous business. He likes this place very much, and he can usually pour tea and serve dishes to guests.Not long after, Xinxin became pregnant.She didn't understand anything, and Ma Xiaoyou went to the hospital for an examination after noticing the change in her body shape.This child was not easy to come by. She had severe reactions during pregnancy, crying all day long, and even saw red a few times.Apart from taking care of the restaurant, Ma Xiaoyou devoted all his attention to her.No, the child was born smoothly, and she also gained a lot of weight.

It's only been five years, Xinxin—why did Wei Le completely forget the past, even the names of his family members?Faced with Chen Xi's questioning, Ma Xiaoyou lifted Wei Le's clothes, revealing the white and greasy skin on her back, intertwined with shallow old scars, as if she had been repeatedly whipped.Wei Le curled up instinctively under his action.What has she been through?Perhaps forgetting is also a kind of compassion.

Wei Jiaquan heard their conversation, and when he saw the scar on Wei Le's back, he turned his face away and closed his eyes.Soft fingertips rubbed the corners of his eyes, at first he thought it was Chen Xi, but when he opened his eyes it was Wei Le.She wiped off the wet marks on her hands and said with a smile: "It's not raining outside, are you crying? A man can't cry, shame on his face!"

"Go, I'll take you home." Wei Jia took Wei Le's hand and said.

Wei Le followed him to stand up in a daze, looking at Ma Xiaoyou.Ma Xiaoyou was in a hurry, rubbing his hands and following up: "Brother, you want to take her away? What about the doll? What about me!"

"Don't call me brother. Thank you for taking care of her these days. Don't worry, I will give you the reward on the missing person notice...You can keep your child, let her take it away, that's okay too!"

"I don't mean that. Brother, brother! Listen to me, Xinxin and I... Oh, it's Lele! We must live a good life. I have no family since I was a child, and she doesn't dislike me, nor do I dislike her. Call you The call is not for money, I want her to find her family. I can make up for the dowry money you should have... You believe me, brother! You can't take her away!"

Ma Xiaoyou didn't dare to drag Wei Le back by force, his words were full of pleading.His anxiety woke up the child in his arms, and the baby cried loudly.Seeing this, Wei Le also struggled, and slapped Wei Jia with one hand, crying and cursing: "Bastard, you are a big villain! I won't go with you!"

Wei Jia didn't make a sound, and let her be slapped as if he lost his soul.Wei Le didn't care about the severity of his attack, and once he swung Wei Jia's face, red marks appeared on his cheeks.Unexpectedly, those small hands that he had seen big since he was a child would hurt so much.

How could Chen Xi see this, she took Wei Le's hand and scolded, "You're not polite! Please think about who he is for me!"

Wei Le was stunned, and slowly lowered his hand: "I can't be rude..."

But she didn't want to leave either, as soon as she got rid of Wei Jia, she shrank behind Ma Xiaoyou and cried.Ma Xiaoyou wiped away tears, the small room was filled with the cries of a family of three, like a human tragedy.Chen Xi could hear the buzzing in his head, and smelled a faint smell of urine from the tip of his nose.

They all knew what happened, Wei Le peed his pants!Ma Xiao said awkwardly: "Brother, sister-in-law, why don't you sit downstairs and drink some hot tea. I'll change her pants for her."

"She really doesn't recognize me anymore." Wei Jia muttered to herself.

Chen Xi gently stroked his arm: "Let's go out first!"

Wei Jia let Chen Xi lead him out of the room, and suddenly heard Wei Le shout: "Jia Jia, I want Jia Jia!" He turned his head suddenly, wanting to say: "I'm here!" The child in Ma Xiaoyou's hand - she called another "Jia Jia".

Ma Xiaoyou said that Wei Le gave her daughter the nickname "Jiajia", and she embraced the word "Whispering" when the child was born.

She doesn't remember him anymore, but she is still used to calling the person she is most attached to by his name.
