Chapter 53 Gu Linjiang’s Past

"When I was a child, I often didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. In fact, my biggest wish at that time was to have enough to eat and warm clothes with my mother."

When talking about his mother, Gu Linjiang rarely showed a trace of tenderness.

Lu Yan nodded in agreement, because she had the same dream when she was a child. She was an orphan, and people often came to snatch her food in the orphanage, so it was common for her to be beaten and beaten. She often went hungry, which later led to gastrointestinal problems.

"What happened next? You don't look like someone who is short of money. Your mother must be very happy, right?" Lu Yan was a little curious.

Mentioning this, Gu Linjiang's fists clenched and unclenched unnoticeably. He felt a little weak, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes. "My mother is gone. She died of hunger when I was sixteen."

"ah?"

"When I was sixteen, we were kicked out by our landlord on a snowy day. My mother took me to live under an overpass. I didn't eat for five days. My mother gave me the pancakes she got from begging. She starved to death.

Already."

Gu Linjiang said it in an understatement, but in fact, that woman had people kill the mother and son, and the mother wanted to take him to hide in XZ, while at the same time she wanted to make money to support them.

He clearly remembered that the woman at that time issued a ban in the industry, prohibiting any company from hiring his mother.

In order to support the family, the mother had to work part-time, and even then the woman would not let them go.

She kept people coming to her mother's workplace to cause trouble, and finally the boss had no choice but to fire her.

In the worst year, when he had just turned sixteen, all sources of income for the family were cut off. The woman became more and more persistent in following them, and the two of them were kicked out by their landlord in the middle of winter.

On a snowy day, thousands of houses were brightly lit, and his mother was helpless and took him alone, and the two of them crowded under the overpass with beggars.

The smell of the sewage under the overpass made him dizzy, and rats and unknown insects crawled past them.

Occasionally, he would see a few dirty cats, probably out of hunger, chasing those fat mice.

Even though the mother and son were in such misery, the woman still refused to let them go, and even secretly contacted the killer secretly.

He had not eaten for five days and was so hungry that he lost all strength. He lay under the overpass and stared at the bottom of the cement bridge, which was dark gray and lifeless. He wanted to die.

That was Gu Linjiang's only wish when he was sixteen.

At that time, his mother was begging on the street and someone hit her on the head with half a hard and cold pancake. She was not angry, but grateful and picked it up quickly and kowtowed to the person as if she had seen a treasure.

Life has smoothed away all her edges and corners, and her originally bright and charming face is now weathered, and it is no longer possible to see how gorgeous she was when she was young.

The woman's men found his mother, and then she dragged her broken body and gave him the half piece of hard pancake...

His mother was not starved to death, but beaten to death by that woman. At that time, he understood everything when he saw the wounds on his mother's body.

Lu Yan felt a little heavy. She didn't know that she had touched Gu Linjiang's sadness.

She understood what Gu Linjiang said, and she was close to starving to death at that time.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Lu Yan took out two napkins and carefully handed them to Gu Linjiang.

"It's okay, it's all in the past anyway, people have to move on." Gu Linjiang didn't know why he would say this to someone he had just met, but there were some things that he didn't feel comfortable saying, so it felt better to say them.

I hope everyone will take care of their valuables when going out, especially mobile phones and other items, and do not put them in shallow pockets.
