Chapter 5: First call

Views:

Following some vague memories to find his home, Yu Shulin stood at the door with a heavy heart, took out the spare key from under an old flowerpot in the corner, opened the door and walked in.

Everything is no different from what he remembered. From his last life to this life, he hasn't returned for more than ten years. A thin layer of gray floats on the furniture, and the curtains are tightly drawn, making the living room look a little dark. He turned and walked to the door of his mother's room, took a deep breath, pushed the door slowly and walked in.

The light-colored floral bed sheets are the mother's preference, and there is a photo frame on the bedside table. The beautiful woman in the photo holds a two or three-year-old child and smiles happily. Although there is no father, his life with his mother has always been peaceful and happy.

Holding the photo frame in his arms, he sat down on the bed, smelling the familiar faint fragrance on the sheets, and looking at the faint floating dust in the air, he was startled. The closet was half open, revealing some of the clothes that mother usually wears, and there is a pair of warm yellow slippers beside the bed, which are the most common style, but the color that mother likes.

Putting his arms in front of his eyes, he exhaled deeply, his chest rising and falling, and a little inaudible choking was revealed in his breath.

He really came back, so good.

It took a few hours to clean the inside and out of the house. He wiped off his sweat, packed his clothes and got ready to take a shower.

The phone rang suddenly, and he was stunned for a while before he realized that the landline at home was ringing—he was locked up not long after the college entrance examination, and was later pushed out by his uncle to commit the crime for Yu Bo, and he was squandered in prison for nothing. After a few years, such a pale and oppressive life made him almost forget what the phone ringing was like.

He walked to the phone, hesitated for a while, then gently picked up the phone to his ear, and said softly: "Hey..."

"Sulin, it's me, why did you go there? Didn't you say that you won't go back there in the future? Uncle is very worried about you, have you eaten dinner? Do you want your uncle to come and pick you up?"

A disgusting voice came from the earpiece. He frowned, his eyes full of impatience, and he said hardly: "No, I will come back to pack up my things. Let's meet at the law firm at ten o'clock tomorrow morning." Yu Xiu was suspicious, softened his tone and said, "I know that uncle loves me, thank you."

In the afternoon, Yu Xiu was tossed up by Lawyer Zhou. Although he was puzzled that Yu Shulin's attitude had disappeared from his previous closeness and dependence, but thinking of his bad attitude towards his father, his worries were put aside, and after a few words of concern, he hung up. telephone.

The phone call made Yu Shulin's mood not long after he calmed down again. He stared at the phone with heavy eyes for a long time, clenched his fists, took a deep breath, picked up a change of clothes and went to the bathroom.

Seeing Yu Xiu hung up, Zhou Mei hurriedly approached cautiously and asked, "How about it, Shulin boy... Didn't you doubt anything?"

"No, that kid trusts me very much now." Yu Xiu replied, frowning and staring at her, still a little angry: "How do you usually teach Xiaobo, now is an important time, you should pay more attention to him! If it weren't for him , I signed all the documents today, so I need to go there tomorrow, Ye Changmeng, do you know! I don’t know what's going on with his father... Also, Shulin is emotionally unstable now, you let Xiaobo Recruit him less."

"What are you talking about? It was obviously the broom star who was picking up the matter today... You shouldn't talk to him about someone grabbing custody..." Seeing her husband's expression became more ugly, Zhou Mei stopped talking, remembering Yu Shulin's irritability in the afternoon. , I still can't help but worry: "You said that the kid had such a bad attitude towards our Xiaobo, would you just give the guardianship over there?"

Speaking of this, Yu Xiu showed a trace of complacency on his face and waved his hand to believe in himself: "No, no, you haven't seen Shu Lin's viciousness when he mentioned his dad, thanks to what I said in his ear. Also. With you, these few days, I’m keeping an eye on Xiaobo, let him talk about desserts, think about the legacy of my short-lived sister, don’t go wrong.” In fact, he was a little annoyed that he would talk about someone grabbing guardianship. Originally, I just wanted to show my concern and thoughtfulness, but I didn't expect to accidentally irritate Yu Shulin, but fortunately, the child's impression of his father was so bad, and his heart was still toward him.

Zhou Mei was annoyed by what he said, and changed the subject, "Okay, I see, Xiaobo is so good, and there will be no problems, then I will turn to Chenghan..."

"When the money is in my hands, I will take care of it. There should be no problem." Yu Xiu replied in a good mood.

Zhou Mei was satisfied when he heard this, and took him again to discuss how to spend the inheritance.

Over there, Yu Xiu and his wife are happily planning how to use the more than 600,000 inheritance. Here, Yu Shulin is holding instant noodles, staring at the constantly ringing phone irritably, considering whether to unplug the phone line. Up. What's the matter with Yu Xiu? Didn't I say goodbye tomorrow? Why do you keep calling now

The phone ringing finally stopped after ringing for a while, his brows relaxed, and he continued to eat instant noodles-half a month has passed since the mother’s funeral ended, and the things in the refrigerator have long been unavailable. I bought it with the last little money upstairs, so I can't waste it.

Just after clearing the bowl of instant noodles, the telephone ringing that had been quiet for less than a quarter of an hour suddenly rang again, shocking Yu Shulin who was about to return to the room.

There is no end!

He frowned, walked a few steps over, raised the phone and said impatiently: "Hey, what's the matter, uncle, hasn't it been an appointment to see you tomorrow?"

The background on the phone was a little noisy, but no one was speaking. Yu Shulin was stunned, with some doubts: "Hello?"

"Yu... Shulin, hello, this is Liang Zhou."

The voice on the phone was low and hoarse, with a hint of exhaustion, and the tone was flat, unable to hear the emotions of the person speaking. Yu Shulin frowned, and the doubts in his heart were even worse. He didn't know this person.

"Hello, are you..." Is it mother's friend

There was another silence, as if they were considering how to introduce themselves. For a long time, a low voice sounded, and the exhaustion disappeared: "I am your brother. To be precise, I am the son of your father Liang Chi, Liang Zhou. ."

Yu Shulin was stupid. It wasn't that he wasn't mentally prepared to face his father's relatives, but he really didn't expect that the first person to contact him would be his... brother

Brother... What a strange vocabulary.

No, if his father already has a son, he is older than himself... Is it true that his mother, as the neighbors said, is a junior in other people's families? So because of this, the mother never mentioned her father in front of her? Can…

He was a little confused for a while, and the people on his father's side had never directly contacted him in his previous life. What's going on in this life? After he came back from his rebirth, he obviously didn't have time to do anything, so why did the butterfly wings start to flap

"Liang...Mr." He suppressed the mess of thoughts and hesitated, "Then my father..."

There was a pause on the phone, and then faintly replied, "Father has been dead for three years."
