After Chang Desxiang came out, the first thing she did was to contact her boyfriend Picard. Where could she contact him? His phone number has been changed. When calling the original phone number, there is a "beep" sound, followed by a mechanical rejection: you are dialing an unavailable number.
Chang Dexiang was extremely frustrated, and inexplicably resented Picard. I thought to myself: I have been in jail for a year or two, but you, Picard, never said that you came to visit the prison, and you never made a phone call to express your condolences, as if I, Chang Dexiang, had nothing to do with you.
The reason why I am in this situation is because I and you went around and evaded taxes in the name of holding concerts. You really have your conscience eaten by dogs.
No matter how much Chang Dexiang complained, Picard couldn't hear her, but her mother, an old woman with gray hair now, heard her.
While she helped her daughter scold Picard, she even called him a white-eyed wolf who didn't want to die a good death. But what does that do? The most urgent thing right now is to treat her daughter's illness. Fortunately, although her mother Wei Li is an older generation singer and didn't make much money from singing popular songs, she still has money to treat her daughter's illness.
She asked Chang Dexiang to go to the hospital with the best medical technology in the provincial capital for treatment. She stayed in the hospital for half a year and took a lot of medicine and injections. However, her rheumatism could not be eradicated and it had no effect.
Wei Li also spent most of her six-digit savings, which almost made her lose confidence. Looking at her daughter's swollen thighs, she said, it seems that if you walk more and exercise more, the effect may be better than the treatment.
That day, Wei Li supported her daughter while walking in a park near the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Chang Dexiang suddenly asked, who is my father? Why have I never seen him.
When Wei Li heard this, she said very sadly, "Don't talk about this. Your father disappeared from the world just like your boyfriend Picard." Chang Dexiang stopped asking and walked slowly, while Wei Li slowly resolved her negative emotions in her heart:
When it comes to Chang Dexiang's father, she actually doesn't know. When she was young, there were several handsome men in the troupe who chased her, and almost all of them slept with her secretly, and quite frequently.
But when she became pregnant, almost all of those men became cowards. This also comes at a time when the theater troupe’s leaders have stressed at many meetings that style issues must be seriously investigated and dealt with.
In this way, they become even more cowardly. Of course, they don't know who sowed the seeds in Wei Li's belly, and they are even less willing to take responsibility.
There was no NDA technology at that time, so who would take this matter seriously? Even if it is more serious, it will not produce results. In this way, Wei Li swallowed the bitter water in her belly, hated all the men in the world, and stopped talking about marriage. After giving birth to the child, she lived a long life as a single parent.
This child is Chang Dexiang who is now being supported by her. Chang Dexiang asked now, Mom, since you named me Chang Dexiang, I should have a father, and my father’s surname is Chang.
Wei Li took a handful of her graying hair and said, "You take it for granted!" I named you Chang Dexiang, which has two meanings:
The first is to warn yourself to always maintain good moral character. She thought of the reasons for her failure in love and marriage, and when she got excited, she simply said, "My moral character is not good. If I had only chosen one man to be friends with when I was a girl, I would not have bothered to make friends with a man named Zhang today. The person surnamed Li, the day after tomorrow, the person surnamed Liu, and the day after tomorrow the person surnamed Ma, would not have ended up like this. They would not even know who the fetus in their belly was.
Second, I hope that you, my daughter, will not lose her virginity as hastily as I did in the future, but will always maintain good moral character.
Mom, I understand what you mean. Chang Dexiang walked slowly and chatted in detail. There was a piece of grass in front of them, and there was a stone bench on the ground, and the mother and daughter sat on it to rest.
Chang Dexiang continued, "Mom, there's another thing I don't understand. When you were pregnant with me, you didn't know which man's child it was, so why didn't you abort me?"
Chang Dexiang said "hum" and said that he planned to induce your labor at that time, but there were two reasons, no! There are three reasons that lead to retaining you.
The first reason is that I don’t have money to go to the hospital, so when I go to the men who have slept with me, they all try to shirk their responsibilities, and they are even less willing to give me money to go to the hospital. They think that whoever gives me money has admitted to having sex with me. I have connections. They avoid it like the plague;
The second reason is very simple. If I asked someone to borrow money to go to the hospital for this matter, I would be afraid of being ugly;
The third reason is the fundamental reason why I decided to give birth to you. At that time, your grandma knew about this and insisted on taking me to the hospital to induce labor. But on the way, when we were on the street, your grandma asked me to make a fortune and asked whether it would be better for me to have an abortion or not. .
The hexagram master looked at the hexagram and explained that this hexagram is good first and then bad. It seems that it is best for you not to have an abortion. Your grandma asked, why can’t we have an abortion? He said that if you have an abortion, the baby spirit will take revenge on you, and at worst it may kill you, at worst it may make you sick. Therefore, I decided not to have an abortion and gave birth to you.
Chang Dexiang stopped talking about this matter. She changed the topic and asked a fortune teller to give me a divination to see if my rheumatism could be cured.
Wei Li said that if you don't want to ask a fortune teller, there is a Bodhi Temple on the bank of the Yangtze River. You can go and ask the magician there. They ask pilgrims to pay as they please. If you don't force it, the fortune teller can't do it. You have to pay as much as they say. Chang Dexiang said, Mom, let’s go now!
There is an abbot in the Bodhisattva Temple, whose name is Juexin, who is known as Master Juexin. He is meditating at the moment. In a dreamlike Zen state, he suddenly saw a group of chicken spirits coming to him and chirping loudly.
What is the reason? He didn't know, and just as he was wondering, the temple god in the temple came over and smiled, saying, Master Juexin, you don't understand chicken language, let me translate for you.
Master Juexin said, OK, tell me, why are these chicken spirits squawking around me?
At this moment, the temple god chatted for a while with a larger chicken spirit, Chirgulu, who sometimes nodded and sometimes said yes. The other chicks stopped calling and became quiet for a while.
Master Juexin looked at the temple god and said, "What are you talking about?" I do not understand. The temple god said, these chicks told me that 50 years ago, when they were still incubating, they were eaten as eggs by a woman who dreamed of becoming a singer, and as a result, they are still unable to have children.
They turned into rheumatic lesions and parasitized on the legs of the reincarnated woman named Chang Dexiang to collect debts. They hoped that Master Juexin would mediate and ask Chang Dexiang to find a way to save them.
Master Juexin said, "You are making things difficult for me now. I don't even know the woman named Chang Dexiang. How can I ask her to transcend them?" The temple god didn't say much, he just cupped his hands and said goodbye.
At this moment, a group of chicks chirped again, which woke up Master Juexin who was meditating. He opened his eyes and saw that the young novice from the temple had brought two women, one old and one young, in front of him and said, Master, the two donors have been waiting at the door for a long time and they have something to ask.
The old woman came forward and said, excuse me. Pointing to a haggard-looking girl standing beside him, he said, "My daughter is suffering from rheumatism and has been treated in various hospitals, but with no results. I came here to see the old Bodhisattva to see if she has committed any evil deeds." If an evil obstacle is committed, can it be eliminated?
Master Juexin suddenly remembered that when he was meditating, the temple god told him that the chicken spirits had turned into rheumatic lesions and parasitized on the legs of a woman named Chang Dexiang in order to collect debts. Just now I heard the old woman mention rheumatism again, so I asked, what is your daughter's name?
The old woman rolled her eyes and gestured to the girl next to her to answer. When he heard that her name was Chang Dexiang, Master Juexin understood. He looked at the girl and said, Female donor, your legs and feet are suffering from rheumatism that is difficult to cure. It seems to be a physiological disease, but in fact it is an evil disease. The chicken spirit is looking for you to collect debts.
What, old Bodhisattva, how does my daughter’s disease have anything to do with chicks? The old woman asked in surprise.
Mom, I don’t believe it. I contracted this disease while serving my sentence in that dark and damp prison cell. It has nothing to do with the chicken spirit.
Chang Dexiang pulled her mother and said, "Let's go!" Nothing can be asked here. Wei Li glared at her and said, shut up and listen carefully to the old Bodhisattva's teachings.
