"Boss, I found it." Zhou Yao has excellent work ability and found the information Su Li wanted in just a few days.
"Ding Sha... is indeed your mother." Zhou Yao had already read the information in advance and was reluctant to say it out loud.
Su Li took the information and what caught her eyes was a photo, which was a bit old and yellowed. She didn't know who took the photo of her. She was leaning against a yellow poplar tree, wearing a goose yellow skirt, with a bulging belly and a very gentle smile.
It's that face.
Su Li's eyes suddenly filled with tears.
It was that face, for sure.
That's mom.
Su Li stroked the photo again and again, but couldn't help but smile a little.
He had also seen his mother, had been with her, and had acted like a spoiled child in her arms.
Zhou Yao, standing nearby, felt a little reluctant to read out the information he had found.
"Have you found anything else?" Su Li asked.
"Auntie loves you very much. I found Dr. Liu who was in charge of her at the time. Dr. Liu said that she was very obedient every time and asked a lot of questions carefully on how to raise a baby. She looked very happy."
"She really does love me very much." Su Li said without hesitation.
"In addition, I also found out your father's identity following my aunt's clues." Zhou Yao turned a page and handed him another photo.
The boy had a scar on his brow bone, was very skinny, and stared at the camera fiercely and wildly. He was wearing prison clothes and handcuffs.
"I got this from Nanjiang City Prison. Your father's name was Xiao Jun. He was imprisoned for being involved in organized crime and died in a fight in prison not long after." Zhou Yao closed his eyes.
"Check." Su Li said without hesitation.
My father couldn't be that kind of person. He was obviously content to keep my mother safe and sound in a small yard. He would never do such a thing.
"We have checked," Zhou Yao said. "I contacted the police officer who arrested Mr. Xiao. The officer said there were too many suspicious points in this case. He had always suspected that Mr. Xiao was taking the blame for someone else, but he didn't have time to investigate before the fight happened."
"Investigate further, from the reason why he went in to the truth of the fight, find out everything." Su Li said.
Zhou Yao is gone.
Su Li put the two photos together.
A rebellious boy and a beautiful and gentle girl.
This is his only family photo.
The new house is located not far from the skate park and has a small yard, which is nice.
Zhou Yao invited a very good carpenter, who was said to be a disciple of an old carpenter. He was a simple and honest person and was very meticulous in his carpentry work.
The carpenter's surname was Li, and he had thick eyebrows and big eyes. Su Li showed him the picture she had drawn, and explained it in detail as he looked at it, trying hard to restore the appearance in his memory.
Although Carpenter Li was a little naive in socializing, he was very talented in carpentry. After listening for a while, he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely make it for you. These are not difficult. The main thing is that it takes a lot of thought to make it in this style."
Su Li smiled and said, "I will transfer the money to your account. I am not afraid of spending money and time. As long as you can achieve this effect, it will be fine."
"No problem. Have you chosen the decoration team? I can look at their plan and decide what to do first."
Su Li shook her head, "Still watching."
"If you don't mind, I'd like to introduce you to someone who does a meticulous job. To be honest, your house needs to be renovated as the wood is rotten in many places," said Carpenter Li.
"Please bring their person in charge to see me some other day." Su Li nodded slightly.
"No problem, then I'll go back, boss." Carpenter Li left happily.
Su Li sat in a rocking chair in the yard and looked at the sky. He remembered that his mother liked this very much. His father also said that the rocking chair in the house had been moved to three places.
Zhou Yao was a little worried when he came back.
He called his boss' only good friend, "Hello? Wenyu? When are you coming back? My boss is scaring me to death."
It was midnight over there at Zhou Wenyu's place. He was still half asleep, but he woke up halfway when he heard Zhou Yao's words. "What's wrong?"
Zhou Yao told him about Su Li's recent situation. "The main thing is that he is not sad at all. He even sits there with a nostalgic smile and says some strange things, as if he had been with his parents before."
Zhou Yao showed a horrified expression, "But his mother died of complications during childbirth, and his father died before he was born.
"I suspect he has some mental problems."
"I'll book the nearest flight back home right away." Zhou Wenyu said only this and hung up the phone.
Zhou Yao came back to report the situation.
"Boss, we found out that your father was in prison for money. He wanted to change his mind, but his younger brother in prison found out and tipped him off. The purpose of the fight was to kill him without any evidence."
Su Li was not surprised, he had guessed it from the beginning.
Su Li held the small wooden sculpture that Carpenter Li had just given him, loosening and tightening his hands, "Where is the body?"
"In the cemetery."
"I want to buy a piece of land for their cemetery and arrange their funeral arrangements again."
"good."
... ...
Su Li chose a sunny day and went to the cemetery to retrieve her parents' ashes.
They were even in a cemetery, one on the left, one on the right, with a sea of people between them.
Su Li looked at the tombstone, which only had a simple name and the year of birth and death.
He knelt down respectfully and kowtowed three times, then walked to his father's tombstone holding his mother's urn and kowtowed three times. The two urns were not big, so he held them tightly.
"I am an unfilial son. It has taken me so long to come back home to take my parents home. I hope you will be stricter with me in your next life."
Su Li said, and found a small slope leaning against a tree full of flowers, holding two boxes, "Zhou Yao, take a picture for me."
"Ah?" Zhou Yao was stunned.
"Take a picture for me." Su Li said patiently.
He smiled at the camera.
It's a family portrait.
Zhou Yao couldn't bear to watch it anymore, he lowered his head and wiped his tears, "Boss, let's go, don't miss this good opportunity."
Su Li nodded and slowly walked down the mountain.
The newly purchased cemetery was very spacious, surrounded by flowers, plants and trees. Su Li put down the urn while reciting silently in her heart.
"This place was built the way Mom likes it. Dad, you love Mom so much, so she must like it, right? If there's anything you're not satisfied with, just tell me in your dreams. I'm... looking forward to it."
"When I was little, I was very resentful and wondered why I didn't have a father and a mother. But now I don't think so anymore. I know you love me very much."
"I'm fine now, and I've lived well over the years. Don't worry about me. Wouldn't it be nice for you to still be my father and mother in the next life?"
"I miss you guys so much."
Zhou Yao cried even harder than Su Li.
Su Li kept smiling and didn't shed any tears.
"Why are you crying?" He looked at Zhou Yao with some amusement.
"I... I'm sad, boss. If you're sad, just cry it out. Don't hold it in your heart." Zhou Yao felt for tissues all over his body.
"I'm not sad," Su Li said. "I used to feel sad because I thought they didn't take good care of me and abandoned me, but now I know they didn't let me down and they loved me very much."
Su Li sat next to the tombstone, leaning on the side with Ding Sha's name, "The empty space in my heart has been filled."
"Boss!" Zhou Yao was even more devastated. Su Li looked like she had no regrets at all, as if she was about to die.
At this time, Su Li's phone rang. He picked it up and looked at it. "Wen Yu? Why are you calling suddenly?"
"I'm getting on the plane soon, remember to pick me up!" said Zhou Wenyu.
Su Li glanced at Zhou Yao helplessly, "Zhou Yao called you? Don't worry, I'm fine."
Zhou Wenyu didn't believe him and insisted on coming back.
Su Li had no choice but to say, "Why don't you go to Nanjiang Airport instead? I'll pick you up."
Two days later, Zhou Wenyu landed.
"Come with me to see a psychiatrist."
