"Who are you looking for?"
A clear female voice.
Xiao Yue immediately became nervous.
Henry Zhang was a little nervous, because he didn't expect that a number he remembered many years ago would actually go through!
"I'm looking for...Zhao Fangmei."
This is the name of the old dean.
There was silence on the other side for a while, and then he said:
"My grandma? She has been dead for several years. I am her granddaughter Fang Guoru. If you have anything to tell me, this is my grandfather's phone number before he was alive. How did you know?"
"I...I am Henry Zhang."
Henry Zhang was very surprised. He didn’t expect that the old lady actually had a husband. This was so confusing.
But it’s normal to think about it. I was still a child at that time and didn’t understand the adult world.
The old woman and the old man have been separated all year round, and they occasionally quarrel on the phone. It must be because they are not on good terms, so it is normal for her to say that she is a loner.
Henry Zhang didn’t know how to introduce himself, so he simply said his name.
"Xiao Yang? Oh, I know, it's the orphan that grandma has been helping all year round. I'm quite surprised that you can still call me. I heard that grandma gave you a house at that time. My father and my aunt were both surprised. I don’t know where this house came from, but I found out later that it was the money from your biological mother. I don’t know anything about your biological mother. You called me because you probably wanted to inquire about this matter, right?”
clever!
There is no need to waste words when talking to smart people.
"Oh yes."
"Well, since we have the chance to talk, I can tell you something. My grandma and grandpa have been at odds since they were young. They fight every day and often quarrel. Grandpa is busy at work and grandma doesn't understand him, so he becomes irritable and mentally ill. Question, you may not know that grandma has irritability, which is why she left us to live alone. She is very good with children, so grandpa helped her find a job in an orphanage. As time went by, she He became the dean.”
"Is there such a thing?"
"Well, my father and aunt are not unfilial, but they can't touch grandma's spiritual world. Grandma has never wanted to see them because she hates grandpa, so she also hates her and grandpa's children. When grandma was young, she was a young lady from a wealthy family. , dignified and beautiful, but it was a pity that she married her grandfather later, and they lived happily for ten years. After the age of forty, my grandpa became a cadre of the army and became busy, neglecting my grandma. Her grudges became uncontrollable and she eventually became ill. ”
"But all I heard were unfilial versions."
"That was what grandma said to herself. It was the last face she left for herself."
"So were you out of town before? I mean not in the city where grandma is?"
"Yes, not in the same city, but in this province. We just came back to this city on the eve of the apocalypse. Not long after, my grandfather was transferred to work at the general headquarters here, and I joined as his assistant. Now that my grandfather has died, I still I'm at work. Let me introduce you formally. I am the section chief of the Information Section of this city's combat headquarters. Now the whole world is suffering from the apocalypse. It's so difficult..."
Xiao Yang could hear fatigue from Fang Guoru's words, and thought that this might be the reason why she was willing to take the initiative to tell herself these things. She should just want to find someone to talk to, otherwise why would she be talking to a stranger like herself?
“Henry Zhang, actually we have met before.”
"Seen?"
Henry Zhang was completely surprised.
"Yes, nineteen years ago, I went to the orphanage for two years, mainly to accompany my grandma, but then I left when I went to school. My name was Xiaoru at that time. Don't you have any impression of me?"
Henry Zhang’s head was buzzing.
Xiaoru!
That's the naughtiest girl in the orphanage.
She was one of the many children who bullied her back then. The most outrageous thing she ever did was to call a group of children and take off his pants. Henry Zhang cried miserably at that time.
Li Wenlong was also there and wanted to help, but Xiaoru's commander was also knocked down.
Mom!
He was so innocent that he never thought that the naughty girl Xiaoru was actually the granddaughter of the dean's grandma.
She stayed there for two years and then heard that she was adopted.
She also found Henry Zhang when she left.
"I'm telling you, you have to be aboveboard in your life. I have indeed bullied you in the past two years. I admit it, I just like bullying you. Are you angry?"
Of course Henry Zhang ignored her. Needless to say, Henry Zhang wanted to beat her to death at that time.
"It seems that you are angry. Okay, then don't run away. I will come to you again. I will continue to bully you until you grow up so that you can never get rid of me! Let's see what you do. ?”
"I'm not afraid of you! I'm going to fight you tooth and nail!"
This is what Henry Zhang shouted at that time.
He was very unconvinced. He thought that although Xiaoru was a little taller than him, Xiaoru would definitely not be his opponent if he fought alone.
It's a pity that Xiaoru's children are so lucky that all the boys listen to her.
She never fought with herself alone, she always led a group of children to fight in groups.
Xiaoru listened to Henry Zhang’s roar, smiled, and said:
"You kid is so boring. I'm about to leave, but you're still so mean to me. Tell me, when I first came here, if you hadn't been so mean to me, would I have been able to bully you?"
"When you first came here? Why was I so cruel to you?"
"Have you forgotten? I saw you had a runny nose, so I gave you my handkerchief. You didn't want it, so I knocked my handkerchief to the ground with your hand. You said that only little girls wipe their noses with handkerchiefs, and then I wiped my nose with it. Don't you know that I was so angry that I bullied you?"
Henry Zhang was a little confused at the time. He really didn’t remember this because he was too young at that time.
But Xiaoru, who was two years older than him, remembered it very clearly.
Just then someone came to pick up Xiaoru and asked her to leave quickly.
Xiaoru had no choice but to be held by someone and left, shouting back as she walked.
"Don't forget me!"
"I will never forget you, I will take care of you sooner or later!"
Henry Zhang inserted his waist and shouted to her.
Xiaoru bit her lip, as if she was crying.
Henry Zhang didn't see it clearly, and he was just happy at the time. Finally, there was one less person to bully him. Hehe, it's best if they are all adopted. Then the orphanage will be his own!
This was Henry Zhang’s idea at the time.
Many years in the past, when Henry Zhang grew up, one day, he dreamed of the scene of their separation that year.
After waking up, I started to wonder, Xiaoru seemed to be crying at that time. She raised her hand to wipe her eyes. Are there tears in her eyes?
He wasn't sure, he couldn't find a reason for Xiaoru to cry.
It wasn't until he was older that he finally understood that maybe the reason why Xiaoru always bullied him and made trouble for him back then was just to attract his attention.
Of course children don’t understand love, but human nature is to have feelings between men and women. This kind of thing starts to form from an early age. So Xiaoru was older than herself at that time, so maybe she actually liked her a little, but she couldn’t feel it at all. She I don’t understand it at all.
It wasn't until the moment of separation that she realized something, so she probably shed tears.
When Henry Zhang thought about these things, he felt speechless.
"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Qinghewan community is surrounded by zombies. My father, aunt, and family live there. Now the command headquarters can mobilize not many troops. The commander-in-chief is hesitating whether to send troops for rescue. Maybe I won’t go, after all, it’s not an important place. The task given to us by our superiors is to eliminate those extremely dangerous existences. I still want to go to the leader to fight and see if I can send some people to Qinghe Bay.”
"Qinghe Bay, I'm trapped here too. In which building and unit do your father and aunt live?"
Some people died, but not completely...
