Chapter 126 Leaving the Tong Family
Chapter 126 Leaving the Tong Family
Tong Jia had no idea that Tao Junle appeared shortly after she left the RV.
Now she is concentrating on gathering her strength so that she can deal with the Tong family.
She was soundly asleep and had no idea that at this moment, her mother in this life, Qin Hanyi, and her father in this life, Tong Si, had made an unexpected discovery in their former "secret base".
Qin Hanyi originally lay down to rest after driving the car to the "secret base", but in the middle of the night, he suddenly wanted to go to the bathroom.
She had no choice but to use a flashlight and follow the route that Tong Sihe had taken her to before to find a place to solve the problem.
After she had solved her physiological problem and stood up, she found that the place where she had squatted had Tong Sihe's unique personal mark "和".
Tong Sihe told her that the word "和" was a secret code he and his father used together when they were children.
In fact, it is a typo. Others will think it is a child's graffiti, but in fact, there is an unreasonable rise at the end of each stroke, which makes the whole word look not so harmonious.
In addition, the height is not high, so even if someone sees it, they will not think it was left by an adult. No one will pay attention to children's graffiti, so it is safer.
Thinking that Tong Simin separated her from her husband Tong Sihe just for money, her daughter lost her father at a young age.
Qin Hanyi was no longer sleepy at this time, and even the fear of being alone in the woods late at night was lessened a little.
Although she was not sure whether this discovery was related to Tong Sihe's death, she always felt that if she followed the marks, she should be able to find something left behind by Tong Sihe.
Even some childhood toys are very memorable to her and her daughter Tongjia.
Because the markings were not located high, Qin Hanyi either bent down to look for them or simply squatted on the ground and slowly moved forward, for fear of missing any mark.
Finally, after two hours, we arrived at the foot of Guodi Mountain.
I don’t know if the trees here are too lush, blocking the trace of the “和” sign, or if the sign originally ended here.
Qin Hanyi searched within a radius of 100 meters where the mark disappeared, but in the end found nothing.
Exhausted, she dragged her almost broken legs back to where the last mark appeared, and sat down without caring about her image.
She wanted to take a rest and then go back, but the moment she sat down, she fell backwards.
Fortunately, her balance control was still good. She immediately stabilized her body, sat up straight, and quickly stood up.
However, after she stood up, she saw a stone wall slowly closing.
She sat down again and saw the stone wall open.
There is wind blowing from inside, there must be another world.
But when she stood up and wanted to go inside to check the situation, the stone wall slowly closed again.
After doing this several times, Qin Hanyi understood that the last mark should be a switch.
Someone needs to sit on it to open the stone wall door. Once the weight is lost, the door will close automatically.
Qin Hanyi looked around and found a round stone under a tree not far away. She rolled the stone over and placed it at the marked position.
But no matter how she arranged it, the stone wall door did not open again.
Qin Hanyi had no choice but to push the stone away and sit on it again, but this time it opened.
It seems that only people can sit on it, and other objects cannot.
Maybe it could be done with larger animals, but Qin Hanyi didn't have the ability to make animals of similar weight to himself obey him.
Although it is still uncertain what is on the other side of the stone wall, it is definitely related to Tong Sihe.
She planned to come here together with her daughter after picking up Tong Jia.
Of course, this was the choice she made after trying several methods and failing to open the stone wall door.
By this time, it was already dawn.
Qin Hanyi followed the signs back to the parking spot, took some snacks from the car, and then lay down to rest.
If possible, she really wanted to go to Tong's house right now, but she promised Tong Jia that she would go after lunch.
I just happened to have spent the whole night looking for a mark, so I could use the morning time to catch up on some sleep.
Not long after she fell asleep, Tong Jia, who was in the Tong family's old house, woke up.
At the same time, Tao Junle, who had been waiting in the RV all night, had to leave the RV, but before leaving, he left a note for Tong Jia.
The note read: "Sister, my current name is also Tao Junle. My father is from Beijing and my mother is an overseas Chinese from Xingcheng. We met when we were studying in the United States.
In this life, I was also born in the United States, and returned to Star City with my parents at the beginning of this year.
Sister, let me tell you a good news first. I can speak now and I am very healthy in this life.
I have a lot more things I want to say to my sister, but because I have to go to school, I can only come in at night.
Fortunately, there is no time difference between Xingcheng and China.
If my sister wants to see me, I'll usually be in the RV after 9pm.
Looking forward to meeting my sister???"
To express his excitement, he drew three little hearts at the end of the note.
Then I left the RV reluctantly.
In fact, the two of them had the opportunity to meet this morning, because Tong Jia's first reaction after waking up was to go into the RV to wash up.
The person has entered the space, but then he thought, he has been in a coma for several days and just took a quick shower last night. If he cleans himself too much, he will not look like a patient who has been in a coma for many days.
Tong Jia left almost immediately after she came in.
Tao Junle could only enter the RV, but could not enter the bun shop, nor could he see what was going on inside the bun shop.
So, the two people passed each other and left the space one after the other.
As soon as Tong Jia left the space and returned to her room, she heard bursts of shouting coming from other courtyards.
"Ah~ There's a thief! Someone come quickly! The bed—the bed is gone..."
"Ah! Why am I lying on the floor? Where is my bed? Where is my dressing table?"
"Oh, why has my bed become so small? Who stole my bed?"
The waves of wailing made Tong Jia very happy.
After secretly laughing for a while, Tong Jia lay down and pretended to sleep again.
Just as I was about to lie down, I found that my pants were covered in mud.
Changing clothes was unrealistic, so after thinking for a while, Tong Jia walked directly to the banyan tree in the yard and lay down in the largest hole.
Although it is said to be the largest pit, it is actually only half the depth of Tong Jia's current height.
Tong Jia put her legs in and lay back.
The posture wasn't very comfortable, but it wasn't uncomfortable either.
After lying like this for half an hour, someone finally remembered her, an orphan with no one to rely on.
The one who brought people here was the old lady of the Tong family, who was Tong Jia’s grandmother in this life.
After seeing Tong Jia half buried in the ground, she concluded almost the moment she saw it that the lost things in the house and Tong Jia's current situation were all related to her eldest son Tong Simin, who could not be found in the house.
Although she favors her son, Tong Jia is still her youngest son's Tong Si and only blood relative. As long as she can be saved, she can't just watch her die like that.
He quickly ordered someone to carry Tong Jia out of the pit and also ordered someone to call a doctor.
But the maid who had supported her all the way here began to look embarrassed when she heard the order to find a doctor.
Only then did she realize that her little treasury was hidden in the nanmu bed.
Now that the bed is gone, the small treasury is naturally gone too.
The eldest son has disappeared, the eldest daughter-in-law has lost something, and the public treasury has long been in deficit and is really stretched to the limit.
The old lady sighed and said, "Take the child back to the house first.
Until her mother comes, I will stay in her yard to take care of her. Just in case... I don't want to leave the child alone."
At this time, another servant came to report the news, saying, "Madam, the eldest young mistress said that after she finished counting, she found a lot of things missing and she must report it to the authorities.
Now I still can’t find the young master, look at this…”
Old Madam Tong sighed again and said, "Tell her to come over here to the yard. I have something to say to her."
Tong Simin’s wife actually had no idea what was in her home, as Tong Simin was the one who managed all these things.
But she saw many pits in the yard, and judging from the depth and traces, it was obvious that something had been buried there.
That's why she wanted to report to the police, hoping that her mother-in-law, who was eager to keep the peace, would give her more subsidies.
But when she arrived at the yard where Tong Jia was, she saw that the yard had been dug up everywhere. She also heard that Tong Jia was also found in a pit. Suddenly, the face of her man Tong Simin appeared in her mind.
If you want to know who knows best how jealous and resentful Tong Simin is towards Tong Sihe, it must be Tong Simin’s wife.
After seeing this, when she met Mrs. Tong again, she never mentioned reporting to the police again.
He just said, "Mom, this is a family disgrace that shouldn't be made public, but...where did our head of the family go? We have to look for him, right?"
Mrs. Tong said, "I've already asked them to look for him, and I've also told everyone in the clan about it.
Just wait calmly for a few days.
This kid Simin, he... he must have some plans, otherwise he wouldn't do this without discussing it with us.
You have to trust your own man, the father of your child, and I have to trust my own son too, right?
All the things in your house are gone, so you can take your child and sleep in my yard for a few days.
I will stay here to look after Xiaojia until her mother comes to pick her up. Then you can move the child to this yard.
Although the things in this yard are not made of top-quality wood, they are all solid wood after all."
"Then...then just follow mother's arrangements. Xue'er was frightened by what happened last night and is still crying.
If you don't have anything else to do, I'll go back and accompany Xue'er." Tong Simin's wife is now eager to leave here, she wants to find Tong Simin.
Old Mrs. Tong waved her hand and let her go.
She passed by the dusty Qin Hanyi.
The moment she saw Qin Hanyi, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up.
Her background was actually not bad, but her family favored boys over girls, and the dowry she received was no match for Qin Hanyi's.
Especially since Qin Hanyi was still a college student, and he had only attended the private school at home for a few days and knew only a few words.
There was originally no conflict between the two people, but because of this, she always disliked Qin Hanyi.
Now that Qin Hanyi's man is gone and her daughter will soon die, she will have nothing to do with the Tong family anymore.
Looking around at the huge Tong family house, which would soon belong to her and her man, she felt indescribably happy.
Now when I see Qin Hanyi again, the inferiority complex and resentment are gone, replaced by a kind of condescending pity.
She stopped and wanted to talk to Qin Hanyi, whether it was sincere or not, to comfort Qin Hanyi.
But he didn't even want to pay attention to her. He just walked quickly, no, ran past her without even giving her a glance.
Qin Hanyi was really worried about Tong Jia's situation and couldn't bear to wait until after lunch to come over.
After taking a short nap in the car, I went straight to Tong's house.
Qin Hanyi, who had almost not slept all night because of looking for the mark, had dark circles under her eyes that clearly showed her concern for her daughter.
Therefore, no one, including Old Mrs. Tong, doubted that she had arrived earlier.
Seeing her exhausted appearance, Old Lady Tong felt a rare pity for her and wanted to let the mother and daughter stay at home for a few more days.
But Qin Hanyi didn't want to. She was anxious to find Tong Simin to ask about the cause of her husband's death, and she was also anxious to take her daughter to her husband's "secret base" to explore what her husband Tong Sihe had left behind.
Faced with Mrs. Tong's cordial invitation, Qin Hanyi directly refused and said, "Mother, I still don't know why Jia Jia has been in a coma.
The most important thing for us now is to race against time with King Yama.
I have to take her back to the capital as soon as possible and take her to a big hospital in the capital for treatment. I really can't let her stay.
Mother, I appreciate your kindness, but time waits for no one. I will take Jiajia away first and come back to see you next time I have time."
After saying that, she picked up Tong Jia and walked out.
A voice in Mrs. Tong's head told her that she should stop the two people, but Qin Hanyi's words were reasonable. No matter what her reason was, she should not stop the child from seeing a doctor.
She raised her arms and shook them twice, then put them down helplessly.
Watched the mother and daughter leave Tong's house.
After the mother and daughter had been gone for about ten minutes, Mrs. Tong suddenly told the people around her to go after Qin Hanyi, not knowing what she had thought of.
She said: "To treat Xiaojia, our Tong family must go with us.
Otherwise, if anything happens to the child, her mother will definitely not inform us."
In fact, she was not worried that something might happen to Tong Jia, but that Qin Hanyi would not inform her.
She was worried that if Tong Simin really took away the valuables in the house, her eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter would just cry, and she would have no one to rely on for the rest of her life, and would have to rely on her youngest daughter-in-law and granddaughter to survive.
So, at this time, she cannot cut off contact with Qin Hanyi and her mother.
Now, she hopes Tong Jia can be alive more than anyone else.
With her granddaughter, she still has a connection with Qin Hanyi.
If he lost his granddaughter Tong Jia, and Qin Hanyi remarried, he would be finished.
