Chapter 753 Take a sip from your hometown bar!(2/2)
"No," said Su Dai, a middle-aged man next to him, "I was only seven years old when I first went there. I was so scared by the wolf howling at night that I didn't dare to leave my sleeping bag and pee."
"Old man, do you know what happened on Mine No. 52 back then?" Wei Ran asked tentatively.
"This matter started from a long time ago. Of course, these were all told by Selsey and Uncle Paulid to me."
Old Master Su Wu paused, told the story of what had happened in Mine No. 52, and by the way, he overturned the false truth originally constructed by the confession.
Lola looked down at the bullet shell pendant hanging around her neck, muttering to herself, "I didn't expect my grandfather and the others had already obtained those gems."
"About 66 years, I remember that it was the New Year soon, and Uncle Polid took Selsey to my house."
Su Wu sighed and stared at the white wine in the cup and recalled, "That was the first time I saw them. Before that, I only heard them in my mother's description.
At that time, they told my mother that Uncle Mikita died at Mine No. 52, and they also sent a lot of gems. But thanks to those small stones, my mother sold those gems, our family drove a car and used a TV. Later, we moved into a big house, and finally the whole family didn't have to squeeze into a tube building less than 30 square meters.
But even so, we had a lot of gems left in our hands, and of course, we also saved a lot of money. At that time, our family went to Yujino to visit Selsey and his mother almost every year.
Later, my mother suddenly wanted to go back to Boli in the last few years, and the connection between us became less and less. Later, Selsey and his family moved to Harkoff. My second child was also born, and everyone was busy with their own families, and the connection became less and less."
Speaking of this, Su Wu drank the last sip of white wine from the cup, and the perming aunt also took away the small wine glass from his hand. Obviously, the old man's daily necessity today's liquor balance was insufficient.
Mr. Su Wu smiled apologetically at Wei Ran and others, picked up the dish and put it into his mouth, and continued to say slowly, "Later the Soviet Union collapsed, and Kharkov became Kharkov of another country, and Selsey and I completely lost contact.
But even so, the gems he polished for us at the beginning helped a lot. If it weren't for those beautiful little gems, our family would probably go hungry again in the years after the disintegration."
After telling the story, Mr. Su Wu first pointed to Su Lie who was sitting closest to the door, then glanced at Wei Ran meaningfully and continued to say slowly, "There is the last stone left by us in the pendant. Speaking of which, it was the wedding gift given to me by Uncle Mikita.
Now that Su Lie has a girlfriend, I will give him the pendant. But I didn’t expect that I could meet you in less than half a year after I gave it away.”
"Maybe this is what we say about the old saying goes, come to meet thousands of miles away."
Wei Ran picked up the cup while speaking and greeted the old man sitting opposite him from afar. Just now, he knew that the old man must have guessed something.
The topic about Mine No. 52 came to an end, and a large table of people began to talk about various topics from all over the world. Even the old man Su Wu pulled Lola and chatted for a while, he actually called Wei Ran in front of him.
It was also through the chat with the old man that Wei Ran also learned indirectly that the name of Mr. Su Wu had nothing to do with the sheep's Su Wu. It was just because his father, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces soldier who died in the 1945 years, brought a "Wu" or "Five" in the name of his father.
And Nurse Pontiac, no, maybe it should be said that the mother named Su Shengnan, according to the Slavs' tradition, allowed their son to inherit his father's name.
Of course, in Su Wu's memories, his mother allowed him to inherit more than just his name, but also his and his father's hometown, a city famous for barbecue and low housing prices in China today - Hegang.
But at the same time, Wei Ran also knew that in the memory of head nurse Su Shengnan, when she went to China in 1945 and rushed to Hegang, she only found a mass pit washed out by the rain in her husband's hometown.
Now Su Shengnan's head nurse has long passed away, but her son Su Wu has never given up looking for a way back home.
This mixed-race child with blue eyes and high nose bridge by chance married a Chinese woman as his wife in the 1960s and gave him two very classic Chinese names to his sons.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, he finally had the opportunity to go to China and found the small city he had heard of countless times but had never been to. Since then, he has visited and searched again and again.
"What do you want to find from there?" Wei Ran couldn't help but interrupt Su Wu's memories and asked.
"I don't know either"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Su Wu, who was in his seventies, spread his hands, "My mother said that if it weren't for war, I might have been born and raised there, I would have had many relatives there, and I would have become a Chinese. I always thought so before I went there."
"What?" asked Sui Sui, who was listening to the story.
"And then..."
Su Wu smiled bitterly, "But when I went there again and again, I realized that I, a Russian with blue eyes and high nose, would never seem to be a Chinese. In that city, the most likely person to be my relatives was just one or a few of those countless corpses in the mass grave of Dongshan."
Speaking of this, Su Wu pointed to his second son again and said with a smile, "Although I didn't find my relatives in Hegang, this kid found his relatives. His wife is the one there, and today the big table of dishes was arranged by his wife."
"No wonder your barbecue is so delicious." As Sui Sui spoke, she took a small beef skewer handed over by Anfisa.
"If you like to eat, stay for two more days"
Su Wu said and pointed at his eldest son Su Qin, "His wife is also from Chinese and Manchuria. Su Lie's child is following his mother's household registration. Tell me, I am a member of my ancestors, right?"
"Calculate!"
Wei Ran nodded vigorously. There was nothing to say about this old man who could do this. The head nurse Su Sheng could not let him forget his roots and be called a qualified mother.
"My biggest regret in my life is that I have cut off contact with Selsey." Su Wu said this and lowered his voice slightly, "Young man, thank you for bringing her over to let me meet you."
"Do you know?" Wei Ran asked in surprise.
“I watch the news every day”
Su Wu said with a smile, "When you finished introducing yourself and when Lola said that you helped her find Mine No. 52, I guessed that you must have happened to be here. There is no such coincidence in this world."
