"Who are you...?" Jiupo glanced flatly and asked lightly.
The woman's face was full of sadness, and she excitedly testified:
"Daughter, I am your mother! I am your mother."
"I gave birth to you in the ninth month of my pregnancy."
"It was a snowy day that year, and it was sunny and thunderous when I gave birth to you. I remember very clearly that you had nine weird birthmarks on your body, just like the one on your face."
"You are the flesh that fell from my body."
Jiu Po tilted his head and thought about the word: "Mother?".
He turned around and asked Wu Xin again: "Mother...who is she?".
Wu Xin covers his face, feeling like he has no face to see others:
"Mother is the mother I told you about. Mother, when a man and a woman combine to give birth to an heir, the woman becomes his wife, and the heirs call him mother."
"oh".
The man wiped his dark face with his sleeve and said sincerely and regretfully: "Son, she is your mother and I am your father."
"You should have no impression of us. After all, you left us when you were so young."
"But that was not what we wanted. When you were born that day, you were so angry that you felt cold all over. The midwife said you wouldn't survive like this. She knew there was a doctor who could cure you, so we handed you over to the midwife."
"But the midwife turned around and told us that you died on the way, and she buried you on the spot."
"Your mother fainted when she heard the tragic news. I was so sad that I didn't expect that the midwife had lied to us."
"Later we went to the place where the midwife buried you, and there was no body there at all. We thought you were not dead yet, so we kept looking for you."
"Child, we have been looking for you for many years."
"We have endured cold and hunger all these years, searching hard for you, and finally... finally we found you here."
"How could we not remember the birthmark on your face?"
Jiu Po said dryly: "...Oh."
"My child, you must have suffered a lot in these years. Please let your mother take a good look at you." The woman excitedly stepped forward and wanted to hold Jiupo's hand.
Jiu Po stared at her like the tip of a cold knife, staring at her movements, causing her to tremble and stop.
"Child... child...".
Jiu Po's aura made people reluctant to get close to him, so the man turned around and faced Wu Xin enthusiastically.
He cupped his hands and said gratefully: "My children are following the young master. It must be the young master and his father-in-law who have taken in my poor daughter in these years."
"There is no way to repay a great kindness. This small amount of gratitude from me is far less than the kindness of my father-in-law."
"But I would also like to ask the young master to let me see my daughter-in-law so that I can express my gratitude in person to show that the young master's family has raised my daughter over the years. Otherwise, how could my husband and I have the nerve to take my daughter away?"
"Want to take her away?" Wuxin said with a smile.
"My wife and I have been looking for her for many years...My bitch wife can't eat or sleep well all day long, so I ask a kind-hearted young master to reunite our family."
"My husband and I have only one daughter. This is really our daughter. I clearly remember where the birthmarks on my daughter's body are." The man talked to Wu Xin with an eager look on his face.
As he spoke, the man's eyes glanced at Jiu Po's unique skirt, and then his eyes rested on the hosta on Jiu Po's head.
"Well...yes...the child is lost and the parents are looking for it. It's time to reunite."
"Okay, I'll leave her to you."
Wu Xin happily patted the man's shoulder a few times, and then he rubbed Jiu Po's head.
Jiu Po raised her eyes, her eyes were like sharp blades or ice cubes, and she just stared at Wu Xin silently.
"The sky is high and the road is far away, we can always meet each other. It's time for your family to be reunited."
"After all, you and I are not the same person. If we are destined to meet each other, we will meet each other. If not, we can only miss each other." Wuxin covered half of his face, feeling sad, and his voice was lonely and low.
"Go, go where you belong."
He held Jiu Po's shoulders with both hands, unable to bear to look at her, and turned her body around so that Jiu Po faced the couple.
And Wu Xin's back left alone, Jiu Po turned his head again and looked at him,
Gaze at his lonely back under the setting sun.
Wu Xin's pace seemed to speed up a bit, after he was some distance away.
He suddenly started running extremely fast and soon turned into a black dot.
I twitched at the corner of my mouth, unintentionally leaving Jiu Po behind again.
He really never misses any opportunity and runs away when he gets the chance.
Don’t know when Wuxin will come back this time?
Jiu Po looked at the direction he left unintentionally for a long time without looking back.
She didn't chase him. She knew that if Wu Xin allowed her to catch up, she wouldn't run away.
As soon as Wu Xin left, the couple even more enthusiastically gathered around Jiu Po, complaining and showing off their affection.
As he spoke, he burst into tears.
She asked Jiu Po to follow them back, and also asked Jiu Po to take them to meet the person who adopted her, saying that he wanted to thank her properly.
Jiu Po's only answer was: "Gone...".
She withdrew her gaze, turned around and asked the couple: "Name...mine."
The couple was obviously stunned for a moment. They quickly exchanged glances and blurted out the next moment:
"Little Flower".
"Little Red".
The two of them each said a name. When they heard it wrong, they immediately changed their words:
"Little Red".
"Little Flower".
.......
The change of mouth was only an exchange of the names in their mouths, and there was no unification.
On the contrary, Jiu Po answered on their behalf, tapping the tip of his nose with his finger:
"Name....mine".
"Nine Po".
The couple seemed to notice that Jiupo's attitude and personality were not quite right, and they started playing the emotional card again:
"Hey...Jiu Po is good...Jiu Po is a good name. No matter it's Xiaohong, Xiaohua, or Jiu Po, you are our daughter."
"Daughter, we have had a hard time looking for you. You can't deny us."
"Jiupo, you can't deny your biological father and mother."
"You were born to us, and the young master just now agreed to let you go back with us."
"Jiupo... my daughter," the woman cried with a hint of tears.
Suddenly Jiu Po made a strange reaction. She put a finger in front of her lips and whispered:
"Jiu Po... you say... you don't like it."
The two people were confused for a moment, and something was wrong.
The main reason is that Jiu Po's intermittent speaking style, which only bounces a few words at a time, probably no one except Wu Xin can adapt to it.
The woman asked: "Daughter...what do you mean by this?"
Jiu Po: "Daughter... you... shut up."
As soon as these words came out, the couple immediately became angry and showed their authority as elders.
Boom...a drumbeat sounded at an inappropriate time.
Dong-dong...dong-dong...the sound of drums became intensive.
The couple looked for the drum sound in confusion, and after listening carefully, they found that the drum sound came from Jiu Po and themselves.
It's like there is a big drum hidden in the body. Every time the drum sounds, my heart will tremble, and my eyes will suddenly become blurry.
