Chapter 278 Liu Gaiwa's Past
Gu Mingyue didn't know that the flood had washed away the Dragon King Temple, and was still feeling smug about having tricked someone.
Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. Liang Shaoling privately teased Bai Feng that this guy was the one who wanted the world to be in chaos...
The village affairs are almost done, and she likes to go play with Da Mao and the others when she has nothing to do.
Unexpectedly, I was harassed by Liu Gaiwa recently, and I was blocked as soon as I reached the foot of the mountain.
Gu Mingyue said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you it's not possible? Why don't you give up?"
Liu Gaiwa said pitifully, "I'll just take a look, and I promise I won't get close. Please, Secretary."
Ever since he learned that it was a mountain cat that saved him, this man has been thinking about it.
Gu Mingyue strongly refused. "I can make concessions for you on other matters, but when it comes to Da Mao and the others, no matter how good-looking you are, I can't make concessions."
Liu Gaiwa pleaded again, "I heard that they like to drink milk and eat meat. Look, I brought malted milk and milk powder, oh, and this beef jerky. They are all my thank you gifts. After all, they are my lifesavers. I can't thank you enough. I really like bobcats. Please, Secretary, didn't you suggest that I go see a doctor? As long as you agree, I will honestly go to see Doctor Shi when I come back, okay?"
Gu Mingyue's expression suddenly became serious. "Your body is your own. Whether it's good or bad has nothing to do with me. Besides, not everything can be exchanged equally. If you use yourself as a threat to talk to me again in the future, don't blame me for not showing you mercy."
Liu Gaiwa lowered his head and apologized, "I'm sorry. But I've been used to this way of doing things since I was a child. Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, but when I was a child, I was often called a bastard. Because I don't look like my parents at all, outsiders said that my mother was not serious, and she and my father almost divorced because of this. If the two families were not so deeply involved with each other, they would have divorced long ago. Regardless of whether the two of them separated or not, their attitude towards me was consistently disgusted. My mother even hated me particularly. In her opinion, it was my appearance that made her a laughing stock in the mouths of others. And my father thought I was his shame. I lived with a nanny since I was a child, and being beaten and scolded was commonplace, but no one cared whether I lived or died. No, maybe they wished I would disappear completely."
Gu Mingyue sighed, "I've heard of your situation. It seems to be called skipped-generation inheritance, or atavism. It means that the child's appearance is not inherited from his parents, but from his grandparents or grandparents. Many people don't know this and often suspect the woman first. Don't worry about it. Maybe when technology is advanced in the future, there will be similar tests, and then you can clear your name."
Liu Gaiwa was surprised at first, then she smiled bitterly. "My grandmother did say that I looked a lot like my great-grandfather, but there were very few photos in that era, and she was a close relative, so many people thought she was making excuses for her daughter. My grandmother had no choice but to take me home, but was rejected by my grandfather because he was afraid of being embarrassed. Helplessly, he could only secretly watch me in private. This kind of life continued until I was six years old. I couldn't speak yet, and my grandmother insisted on taking me for a check-up. I was told that it was due to lack of companionship and guidance, poor language function development, and more psychological problems. After learning the results of the examination, my family became even more disgusted with me, thinking that I was a born evil ghost who came to collect debts. My grandmother ignored them and took me to see many doctors, but there was no way, until I met a person who changed the trajectory of my life..."
At this point, he suddenly changed the subject and said, "Secretary Gu, do you know why I don't want to see a doctor?"
"Why?"
Liu Gaiwa looked puzzled and said, "Once when my grandmother took me to see a doctor, we accidentally met a leader. He was the deputy mayor of Jing City, and his family was even more prominent than the Shen family. I can still remember the way he looked at me. The feeling of being looked at made me feel cold all over. At that time, I didn't understand why, I just felt scared and cried out loud unconsciously. But my grandmother thought that I was able to speak because I met a noble person, so she was very respectful to the deputy mayor. When both families heard that I was appreciated by a noble person, their attitudes changed drastically. Not only did my parents take me back, but even my grandparents who had never met me showed closeness to me. Afterwards, the deputy mayor said that he got along well with me. , and he adopted me as his godson. He asked my parents to send me to live with him when he had nothing to do. Others thought that I couldn't speak and was slow to react to the outside world, but they didn't know that I could remember a lot of things at that time, and my mind was very clear. It was just that I didn't like to talk. The deputy mayor liked to hug me intimately, talk to me, and secretly feed me medicine, and then look at me strangely. Many times, I could feel the condescending scrutiny even when I was sleeping. I don't know if anyone found it unusual, or maybe they did, but no one cared about me. I knew that I could only rely on myself. In order to survive, I gradually learned to observe people's words and expressions and show my weakness..."
Noticing that his expression was uglier than crying, Gu Mingyue interrupted him and asked, "How is the deputy mayor now?"
Liu Gaiwa asked back, "I thought you would be curious about what happened to me later."
"Everyone has past events that they don't want to talk about. You said this just to soften my heart. Well, congratulations, you won the bet. I agree to take you to see Ermao. You don't have to force yourself to recall the past. The fact that you are living well now means that you have escaped death, and there is only light waiting for you in the future."
Liu Gaiwa stared at Gu Mingyue blankly, and subconsciously asked, "Can someone like me still have hope?"
"Why not? The sun shines on everything in the world. As long as you are alive, even if there are many rainy days, there will be a sunny day one day. Do you think human power can overcome the laws of nature?"
Liu Gaiwa shook his head hesitantly.
"So, who has the power to deprive you of your light?"
At this moment, Liu Gaiwa's traumatized heart seemed to be injected with energy, making those festering wounds seem to be redeemed.
He hesitated, but still tried to probe, "The deputy mayor thought I couldn't speak, so he was defenseless against me, and let me know a lot of unknown things. Not long after the movement started, I wrote a letter to report him. Now he should have been executed, and his family was also implicated and expelled from Beijing. The Liu family was affected and is no longer as good as before, and the same is true for my maternal family. And I have become the one that everyone hates. I'm not sure if my parents really don't know anything, but I don't want to believe them anymore, so I quickly signed up to go to the countryside. Except for my grandmother who asked the Wu brothers and sisters to take care of me, no one cares whether I stay or go, which is exactly what I want, because I have already cleared out the money hidden by the deputy mayor. Even if no one cares, I can live well on my own. Secretary Gu, do you want it? I can give you half as a thank you for your care in the village."
Gu Mingyue couldn't help but gossip, "How much?"
Liu Gaiwa's expectant expression dimmed, but he still told the truth, "About 100,000 yuan in cash, ten gold bars, and some jewelry."
Gu Mingyue was surprised and asked, "Is that all?"
