Chapter 19 Tai Mo Shan Country Park (1) The Fate of Abandoned Mothers

The section of Tai Mo Shan Country Park near Chuan Lung, when a driver passes by in the evening, if he sees an old woman waiting alone in the gazebo, he will have an impulse to stop the car and ask the old woman for help. If you don't use a car, you can give her a ride along the way, but the old lady always shakes her head and refuses, saying: Thank you, my son will come to pick me up. The tone was sad and helpless, and he looked at the road, watching every passing car, especially the white RV. Some careful drivers, hearing the old woman's words are not natural, they will approach the gazebo to ask more questions, but as soon as they step into the gazebo, the old woman has sat on the stone wall beside the road without knowing when, her gaze is still the same. Watch for passing vehicles.The driver approached Shi Po, but the old woman turned back to the gazebo again!The driver knew something was wrong here, so he didn't dare to pester him anymore, hurried back to the car, and drove away.

Drivers of white RVs, please do not stop near the gazebo, otherwise, when leaving, there may be an old woman in the car, and she may mistake it for her son’s white RV, thinking that his son is coming to pick her up and go home. A heinous crime, a sad ethical tragedy, was exposed on the day after the Double Ninth Festival in 1982! Zeng Qun, a 65-year-old woman, died in a gazebo near Chuanlong in Tai Mo Shan Country Park. There were no superficial injuries, and no cause of death was found in the autopsy report. According to Zeng Qun's eyes and face, the medical officer From the tear marks on her face, it can be deduced that she died of excessive grief!

The police's subsequent investigation also indirectly confirmed the medical officer's inference.However, there are many witnesses who can prove that Zeng Qun was deliberately abandoned in Tai Mao Shan Country Park by her only son Lu Decheng. Lu Decheng, in his thirties, is a bank branch manager.When he was five years old, his father died in an industrial accident, and he was brought up by his mother, Zeng Qun, who also worked as a father and taught books.Since Decheng was the only son, Zeng Qun doted on him deeply.Decheng is quite intelligent and has good academic performance. During high school, he was able to work part time and study part time.After graduating from middle school, he worked in a bank. Because he wanted to win the favor of his superiors, he often accompanied his superiors to socialize, and could barely make ends meet, so Zeng Qun still had to work.

After a stroke, Zeng Qun's movement and memory were impaired, and he was unable to continue working due to geriatric syndrome. Decheng regarded this mother who worked so hard to raise him as a burden, especially after marriage, and his wife also hated this hindrance Lu’s aunt kept instigating her husband to send Zeng Qun to a government nursing home, but after investigation by the nursing home, she believed that Lu’s family was capable of supporting Zeng Qun, and Zeng Qun’s physical and mental state could still cope with daily life, so she Refusing to let her apply for a date, and the high-end private nursing home is expensive, and Decheng's wife thinks it is too expensive. In this way, Zeng Qun finally lived a few years of enjoying his grandchildren.

Fate does not want Zeng Qun to have long-term happiness.The 1997 crisis in Hong Kong emerged in 1982, and the future of Hong Kong was unclear. Lu Decheng and his wife had planned early and applied for immigration, but investment immigration failed due to insufficient capital. Professional immigration, but the banking industry is not a popular industry. The only feasible way is to rely on his wife Parental relationship in Canada, that is, relative immigration.However, Zeng Qun became an obstacle, because Canada will not accept immigrants over the age of 60 (except for investment immigrants), so Lu Decheng went through the immigration procedures without telling his mother. After confirmation, he arranged to resign and sell his property for cash. Zeng Qun was kept in the dark about everything!

A few days before leaving Hong Kong, it happened to be the Double Ninth Festival. Lu Decheng lied that his family was going to Tai Mao Shan Country Park for fun, and came to the vicinity of Chuanlong in the white car that had been sold to a colleague but had not yet been delivered.That day, there were a lot of tourists, many of them came here for an outing, so there were also many elderly people. Zeng Qun was very happy to watch his grandson walking up and down on the grass, but he found that his son and his wife were arranging a picnic At that time, his expression was sneaky, and his son didn't dare to face him squarely.How could Zeng Qun have thought that her son was still at war in his heart at this time, if she called him a few times at this time, it might change everything in the future.

The picnic went on in silence, and from the beginning to the end, Lu De dared not look directly at his mother.When the wife was cleaning up, she stared at her husband fiercely, as if sending a signal of urging. In the afternoon, Lu Decheng bit the bullet and said to his mother: Mom's car tire was punctured by someone, we will go down the mountain to find someone to fix it, and we will come back to pick you up later.Talking hesitantly is obviously lying.Lu Decheng didn't wait for his mother to respond, turned around and ran to the white car with his head bowed. The car quickly disappeared from Zeng Qun's sight.

In Zeng Qun's mind, she no longer has the ability to distinguish what her son said. She only remembers his son's last sentence: I will come back to pick you up later!He sat in the gazebo blankly, looking at the road. At dusk and sunset, the tourists gradually dispersed. At the beginning, no one paid attention to this lonely old woman, thinking that she was a relative of other tourists.The last person to leave the gazebo lawn found that the old lady had been sitting in the gazebo for a long time, and no one paid attention to her.A girl approached her concerned and asked, Zeng Qun replied:

Don't worry, my son will pick me up later, thank you! When everyone saw what the old woman said, they stopped meddling in their own business. Zeng Qun sat in the gazebo for a while, and sat on the stone wall at the side of the road for a while, but never took his eyes off the road. There were several times when passing bus drivers, truck drivers, taxi drivers, etc. came to ask and wanted to take her. Back to the city, but was rejected by Zeng Qun, she still insisted on that belief: my son will pick me up later! On the night of the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, there was no moonlight, and the countryside was even darker. Unless you were very careful, you would notice that there was a figure in the gazebo. An old woman looked at the road with tears on her face. She couldn't believe it, she couldn't believe it, and she couldn't believe it. I don't want to believe that my own son, who has been worn out with his fingers, will abandon her in the field!

The thicker the night, the more broken the heart!The sky is getting whiter, people are getting colder! The morning traveler saw Zeng Qun's body in the gazebo, his face was covered with tears, and he died with regret! The police couldn't find any documents from the deceased to prove the identity of the old woman, so they took a photo and published it in the newspaper calling for anyone who knew her to contact the police. Ten days later, it was not Lu Decheng who came to claim Zeng Qun, but a fellow villager of Zeng Qun.This fellow villager read the newspaper and found out that Zeng Qun had died in the countryside. He was very strange. He had called Lu Decheng, but he could not be contacted.After a few days of delay, seeing the police appealing on TV again, I couldn't help but stand up.

According to the information, the police found Lu Decheng and his wife after several twists and turns. They are still in Hong Kong and have not immigrated to Canada because they were blocked by a series of emergencies. According to Lu Decheng's calculations, the mother should be found in the country park and taken care of by relevant institutions. Since the mother is elderly and has no documents, the police have to check the files of the missing elderly, and there are official documents, etc., at least It took five or six days before he could find him. At that time, he had already packed his home and reported to Canada, and he entrusted a lawyer to handle everything in Hong Kong.If the mother is not claimed, she will be sent to a nursing home so that she will not starve to death. However, the morning news of the next day reported the death of an old woman in Tai Mo Shan Country Park. Judging from the pictures broadcast on TV, the old woman was his mother! Lu Decheng was very guilty and wanted to go to identify the body, but his wife told him that immigration was important and the plan could not be delayed. Two days later, the important furniture and electrical appliances of the residence were packed and shipped to Canada. The couple handed over the residence to the new owner and stayed in the hotel temporarily.In another two days, after the stocks in hand are put in gloves and returned to cash, and then remitted to Canada, they can set off with ease. All the stocks in his hands were frozen, because they were all Carrian Group stocks. Lu Decheng's bank had contacts with Chen Songqing, and it was said that he had a lot of inside information, so he refunded the proceeds from the sale of the property and the provident fund of his resignation. The funds are all bet on the stocks of Carrian Group, and they want to make another sum before emigrating.Unexpectedly, the authorities suspected Carrian Group of fraudulent accounting and bribery, and suspended trading in its stocks first, so most of Lu Decheng's property was immediately frozen! To make matters worse, Lu Decheng had contacted the top management of Carrian Group, and was also summoned by Lian Kee, and he was temporarily not allowed to leave the country. Later, although Lu Decheng was cleared of suspicion, his bad behavior of abandoning his mother was despised by his relatives and friends. He could no longer survive in the banking industry, and his family wealth was almost exhausted. Rolling his eyes, his wife begged to go to court, he had no one to rely on in Canada, and he was very poor when he returned to Hong Kong.In the depths of his heart, it is unknown whether he regrets the evil deeds that day? I just feel sorry for Zeng Qun, who is still looking forward to it, waiting for her son to take her home in a white RV!
