Chapter 35
“Li Zhuiyuan, you really have become more disgusting.”
At this time, Li Weihan, Cui Guiying, a crowd of Li family brothers and sisters, as well as Zhang Auntie and several villagers who came to the small store to buy things in the evening, were all smiling with curiosity, staring at Li Zhuiyuan.
Everyone was very quiet, and everyone was also very eager.
A simple longing for beautiful things is human nature.
Nothing more than a mother and child far apart yet able to listen to each other’s heart’s voice, which can move and gratify the onlookers.
Li Zhuiyuan still gripped the microphone tightly with both hands. The shy expression on his face not only hadn’t faded but had become denser. He gently tilted his body a bit, seemingly wanting to avoid the crowd’s gaze, but in everyone’s eyes, it looked more like a child’s coyness.
Everyone felt this scene was very cute. Their smiles were brighter, and they all slightly opened their mouths, waiting for the following dialogue.
Although they couldn’t hear the voice from the other side of the microphone, they could imagine what the child’s mother was saying and asking through the child’s responses.
“Mom, I’m living very well at home, I’m very obedient.”
“You shouldn’t be angry with me, shouldn’t angrily throw away the microphone, shouldn’t cry or make a fuss about me, shouldn’t question me as a mother, right? Oh, right, you won’t. Hehe, they are surrounding you in a circle, watching you, right?”
“Mom, I don’t miss home very much, I’m very happy here.”
“Li Zhuiyuan, you’ve just met them for the first time, and they’ve also met you for the first time since you were born. So, do you feel it’s necessary to continue performing in front of them?”
“Grandfather and grandmother are very good to me. Panzi, Leizi, Yingzi, Shitou, Huzi, all the brothers and sisters are very good to me, they all take me to play.”
“Li Zhuiyuan, you can be really hypocritical. You clearly look down on them in your bones, thinking they are ignorant and stupid, yet you still have to create your image in front of them.”
“It’s very fun in the village. There are fields, there are irrigation channels, I can catch fish, catch frogs. Grandmother’s sauce is very delicious. Grandmother said Mom you also loved to eat it when you were young.”
“Don’t you feel tired, my son? How can you enjoy this game so much?”
“I also went to Xianghou Auntie’s home. Xianghou Auntie told me a lot about Mom’s past things. Many people still remember Mom you.”
“I’m truly amazing, to have given birth to such a son that makes me feel disgusted.”
“Mom, are you busy with work over there? Grandfather and grandmother hope you pay more attention to your health, eat on time, and don’t overwork yourself.”
Li Zhuiyuan said while looking at Li Weihan and Cui Guiying. The old couple nodded vigorously, indicating that Li Zhuiyuan should continue to speak.
“I originally thought I could control it, but your birth, like a mirror, reflected my most hated self. Li Zhuiyuan, do you know or not, these years every time I see you, I all restrain myself from the impulse to strangle you. Every time you call me ‘mom’, in my ears, it’s like the devil’s whisper.”
Li Zhuiyuan nodded as he listened. In the eyes of the crowd, it was like obeying a mother’s loving instructions. Everyone seemed to guess that his mother was definitely on the other end of the phone teaching him various things to pay attention to, to be good, to listen, and not to be naughty.
“I understand, Mom, I know, I understand.”
“I worked hard to mend this skin of mine. Every morning I wake up, I have to face the mirror and hint and confirm to myself over and over again. But you, yet always want to tear open my skin again and again. You are me, I am you. Li Zhuiyuan, we mother and child, are both monsters wearing human skin.”
“I understand, Mom, you can rest assured, I will listen.”
Li Zhuiyuan pressed his ear to the microphone, gently swaying his body, like a child being nagged by his parents, a little impatient, yet a little embarrassed, but also sweet.
“Your dad once helped me control my condition, and marriage also once gave me some help. I originally should have walked back to the right path, until I gave birth to you. Your birth destroyed all my efforts of so many years. In my eyes, Li Zhuiyuan, you are a mistake that should not have happened.”
“Mom, can you send some snacks over? That kind of cookies, we like to eat them very much. And some stationery, everyone likes my pencil case very much, I promised to give them some.”
Shitou, Huzi, and the others heard this and excitedly hugged each other.
“I shouldn’t have, after discovering your essence, still vainly tried to find a treatment method for you. The repeated failures of treatment on you seemed to make me witness my own repeated defeats. My life was originally dim, it is you who thoroughly blocked my last bit of light. Xiao Yuan, why don’t you go die?”
“Mom, you too.”
“If you had consciously died early, perhaps it would still have inspired my motherhood, wouldn’t it?”
“Um, I won’t.”
“I want to go participate in a secret project, that project has a very high danger coefficient, I don’t know if I can live and come back.”
“Mom, you yourself pay attention to your health, I will worry about you.”
“Telling you these is because I don’t want, after I die, these true words to hide in my heart and not have time to say to you. I feel that a confession like this is needed between us. Actually, you have always understood, I can see through you, and at the same time, you can also see through me, can’t you?”
“Um, I’m listening, I will remember, Mom.”
“This road is one you chose yourself. When I divorced your father, and he begged me for you, you firmly chose to follow me. Your father always thought I was sick, that I was tormenting him and you in various ways, bringing pain to you father and son. But he doesn’t know that his son is a more terrible devil than me, his every display of fatherly love, in the eyes of the son he deeply loves, is just a complete clown show. He is sad, he has already applied to go on a polar scientific expedition project. When I wanted to help you change back your surname, your grandfather didn’t agree, but you firmly wanted to change your surname. Your grandmother said if you followed me, you would never enter the home again later, yet you still grabbed my sleeve and followed me away. Li Zhuiyuan, do you think doing these things can move me and make me change my mind? In my heart, there is only a repeated irritable shout: Why, why do you still insist on entangling me and continue to torment me!”
“Okay, okay, I know all this, Mom, you don’t need to say this anymore, I know it all.”
“I’m going to join the project group tomorrow. I don’t know if I can come back safely. I only hope that if I can live and come back, you will also not be in my life. I’ve thought it through, and I’ve already made up my mind. Li Zhuiyuan, I want to shake off this sticky mess of you. I will transfer your guardianship to your father’s side. Although your father is not here, your grandfather and grandmother should be very willing to accept you. After all, you are a child who can enter the youth class, and you can be their family’s pride.”
“I don’t want to. Others don’t want to. Just send snacks and stationery. I want new styles, Mom.”
“I know you won’t want to. You will still try hard to grab anything related to me. So, I will just send you back to my old home, a place I will never return to in this life. I will transfer guardianship to my father there, your household registration, your school registration, all will be transferred over. I am very grateful for this project, which provides us with the convenience of fully arranging family relationships.”
“Mom, I am now living at great-uncle Li Sanjiang’s home. Great-uncle likes me, he called me over to live with him for a while, great-uncle is a very good person.”
“I know.”
“Um, that’s all, Mom, I want to give the microphone to Grandfather. Grandfather still wants to continue talking to you.”
Li Zhuiyuan held the microphone for a while, waiting for the sound of footsteps leaving and then approaching from the other side, then reluctantly handed the microphone to Li Weihan.
Li Weihan held the microphone: “Hello, Lan Hou, don’t worry, Xiao Yuan Hou is quite good here, we will take good care of him.”
Li Zhuiyuan didn’t want to continue staying here watching Grandfather and Xu Auntie chat.
“Grandfather, Grandmother, I want to go back to great-uncle’s place for dinner.”
Cui Guiying hurriedly said: “You quickly go back, don’t let your great-uncle wait. After a while, your grandfather and I will go ask your great-uncle and see when you can return to our normal home.”
“Okay, Grandmother. Goodbye Grandmother, goodbye Grandfather, goodbye everyone.”
Li Zhuiyuan waved goodbye to everyone, then turned and left.
Runsheng followed behind Li Zhuiyuan. He was very hungry, but now he didn’t dare to urge the boy to walk faster. He always felt the boy had two faces. Although the boy always called himself ‘Runsheng brother’, when there were many people and when it was just the two of them, the sound of ‘brother’ felt different. The former was an enthusiastic and respectful address to a brother, while the latter was just calling him ‘Runsheng brother’. But he also didn’t have any curiosity to understand. His grandpa said he was stupid, so he shouldn’t waste his mind trying to figure out what smart people were thinking. He felt the boy was in a low mood, and all he could do was accompany the boy to walk slowly.
In Li Zhuiyuan’s mind, his mother’s words on the phone echoed over and over again. He was very gratified that his mother hadn’t said so many words to him in one go for a long time. But he knew that his mother’s words were not really spoken to him, her son, but more like to the self at the bottom of her heart. And his mother regarded him, her son, as that ice-cold incarnation at the bottom of her heart. If it were him, if that expressionless self in the wardrobe mirror later became his child, he would also go crazy, also hysterical. Exhausting all efforts, exhausting all strength, trying to cover and suppress that ice-coldness, in the end, it became a child who stuck to him all day, shouting ‘Mom’. At this time, Li Zhuiyuan laughed. He felt it was very interesting, like a farcical, satirical black and white silent film.
He stopped, and squatted by the roadside small channel. The sky was already dark, and at this moment, all that could be reflected in the channel water was a black face. Li Zhuiyuan looked at this face, but didn’t know who it was. Runsheng also squatted down beside him, silently lighting an incense stick. Li Zhuiyuan picked up a stone nearby and threw it at his own reflection in the water.
“Plop…” After a ripple, it immediately restored to its original state.
He knew that his mother’s illness had entered a critical stage. The phone call tonight was a kind of self-abandonment to her herself. She was tired, she was despairing, she would thoroughly let go of the struggle, no longer resist, she would integrate. Thinking in a beautiful direction, this phone call was her last pouring out. Although full of unpleasantness, scolding and cursing. At the same time, it was indeed with a kind of hate, even jealousy. Her human skin was already completely broken, and she also wanted to tear off her son’s skin. So, Mom, are you trying to find a similar kind after you have thoroughly sunk?
Angry? Yes. But whether it was strong, Li Zhuiyuan didn’t know, because he could understand. Because this was absolute rationality. She proved with her own practice that any more struggle was useless and meaningless, so she wanted to save herself this process through this way. But Li Zhuiyuan was very confused, because she shouldn’t have sent him back, shouldn’t have sent him back to Nantong. Sometimes, it’s not about what others say, but what she did.
Continue to stay in Beijing, continue to go to the youth class, continue to learn step by step, graduate step by step, be assigned a work unit step by step… As long as he went down step by step, he could become the same person as her earlier, because he had an earlier onset than her at that time, and was also much more serious than her. But she still sent him back to his old home, she said she would never come back in this life. Is it because here is the last fantasy you always held in your heart? Is this your last protection and expectation for me? Do you think that life here is the reason why you had a later onset than your son, and could still get married, have children, and live a normal person’s life? Li Zhuiyuan hugged his head with both hands, his expression painful: Or maybe, all this is just my wishful thinking.
Runsheng saw the boy’s body start to sway back and forth, and he seemed about to fall into the channel. Li Zhuiyuan did want to fall in, to jump into the channel, and while splashing water, cry and make a fuss. He thought he should vent a bit at this time. But in the end, his figure still stopped, because he felt doing so was very childish. Li Zhuiyuan turned his face to the side and looked at Runsheng who was squatting beside him. Runsheng shivered a bit and immediately moved his gaze away. He didn’t dare to confront that pair of eyes.
Li Zhuiyuan looked at the incense in Runsheng’s hand. He stretched out his hand and gently gripped the burning tip of the incense stick. The burning pain came quickly, but there was no trace of expression on the boy’s face. Until, it reached a critical point. “Hiss…” The boy finally loosened his hand, and his face showed pain. “It hurts so much…” His voice also changed to that of an aggrieved child.
Runsheng turned his head back. He had just noticed the incense stick in his hand swaying, and then looked at the wound on Li Zhuiyuan’s palm. He immediately said anxiously and self-reproachfully: “Sorry Xiao Yuan, I didn’t mean to, I really didn’t mean to.” Runsheng thought that when he turned his head, he had accidentally let the burning incense stick in his hand burn the boy.
“It’s okay, Runsheng brother, I was just curious and grabbed it a bit.”
Runsheng’s tears almost flowed down. Xiao Yuan was still making up such a lame reason at this time so that he wouldn’t blame himself. He felt even more guilty, that he was actually still thinking about this and that, thinking that Xiao Yuan’s eyes were very terrifying just now.
Li Zhuiyuan then looked at the wound on his palm. Was his condition already worsening to the point of self-harm?
Li Zhuiyuan stood up and said: “Runsheng brother, let’s go back.”
“Your wound…”
“It’s okay, I’ll find Liu Auntie to get some ointment to apply.”
When they got home, the big guys on the dam were still eating. They must have deliberately slowed down to wait for him to come back.
“Xiao Yuan, was that Mom’s phone call?” “Um, yes, Great-uncle.”
Li Zhuiyuan sat down and started eating while narrating the dialogue between himself and his mother. He acted very happy and joyful. Just like all normal children, there will always be a period when their parents are their idols, and they will say “my dad” and “my mom” how and how.
Li Sanjiang listened happily, occasionally interjecting. Li Zhuiyuan answered him every time, which made Li Sanjiang even happier, and he kept tapping his bowl with his chopsticks, saying: “I knew it, I knew it, ha ha ha.”
Liu Auntie was also very happy, her character was originally cheerful, and she was very glad to see the atmosphere in the house become more relaxed. Even Liu Yumei asked Li Zhuiyuan a few sentences. She sighed in her heart, no matter how smart this little child was, he ultimately couldn’t change his child’s nature.
Runsheng ate his meal while chewing on the incense stick, looking at Li Zhuiyuan’s performance. He just subconsciously thought that the silence on the way home earlier was just the little child missing his mother. He didn’t have a dad or a mom, only a grandpa, so looking at Li Zhuiyuan narrating endlessly to the crowd, his face also gradually showed an expression of longing: So, having a mom is such a happy thing.
Only A Li silently put down her chopsticks. She liked to look at the boy’s expression, but the excited and happy boy in front of her had no light in his eyes.
After the meal, Li Zhuiyuan forcefully took Li Sanjiang to Zheng Datong’s place to get some medicine. Originally, an injection would have been more effective, but Li Sanjiang was dead set against it.
After coming back, everything was as usual. Runsheng sat in front of the TV, watching TV while drawing a cigarette. Liu Auntie cleaned up the kitchen stove and then was busy coloring paper offerings. A Li was coaxed by Li Zhuiyuan and went back to her room with Grandma Liu to sleep. Li Zhuiyuan seriously finished his horse stance at the back of the house. When he returned to the second floor, he saw Li Sanjiang just pouring washing powder into his hands. On the stone slab by the water tank, there was a basin of hot water and a towel hanging.
“Great-uncle…”
“Great-uncle, I have received good news again.”
“Congratulations.”
“Go away, go away, you skinny backhoe!”
“Hehe.”
Because his mother’s phone call was an interruption, Li Zhuiyuan just realized that his own body’s fortune problem had not yet been solved. Unfortunately, there was no way to ask his great-uncle directly, because his great-uncle himself didn’t understand. So, this transaction that consumed so much fortune, what exactly was traded?
Li Zhuiyuan walked back to his bedroom, turned on the desk lamp, and took out “Liu Clan Wang Qi Jue”. He opened it and frowned. He missed Wei Zhengdao’s writing. Of all the sets of books he took out from the basement, he read Wei Zhengdao’s writing most comfortably. He strongly endured the discomfort and read down one page after another seriously. He didn’t know if he was starting to gradually adapt to the charm of this sloppy writing style, or if the content of “Liu Clan Wang Qi Jue” was indeed profound and mysterious. Li Zhuiyuan read with more and more interest, gradually unable to stop.
This book talks about the feng shui of rivers, lakes, and seas. It is a very special category, because “feng shui” in the normal sense has a relatively broad scope, and water is only one part of it, while the main focus is still mountains and land. After all, whether living people reside or dead people rest, they are basically all on land. And this book mainly focuses on the water system, involving aspects such as water burial, water prison, and water calamity, while mountains and land become supplementary. From a practical perspective, it can be compared: Other feng shui books, if you really read and understand them, you can have an intuition when traveling in famous mountains and rivers: Here, there may be an ancient tomb. After reading this book, when you sit on a boat, standing at the bow, you might occasionally have an intuition and be able to point: Here, there may be a dead body.
Li Zhuiyuan was not in a hurry to finish reading the Liu family’s book, but picked up “Qin Clan Guan Jiao Fa” to look at it a bit. He discovered that the theme was consistent. It seems that the Liu family and the Qin family were big families on the river with the same status back then. The theme was consistent, but the route and method were different. This is extremely beneficial for the learner, as they can mutually verify and deepen their understanding. As long as both books are understood, his understanding of river and lake feng shui will become extremely profound. Looking at the time, it was time for him to sleep.
Li Zhuiyuan put away the book, turned off the desk lamp, took the water basin to take a bath, then returned to the bedroom, lay on the bed, folded the quilt, lay down, and slept. A quarter of an hour later, Li Zhuiyuan sat up. He couldn’t sleep. Even with strong behavioral logic inertia, it couldn’t suppress the inner impact of his mother’s phone call. He pushed open the door, walked to the balcony, sat down in the rattan chair, and Li Zhuiyuan stared blankly at the pitch-black night sky.
He didn’t know how long had passed when the door of the east room was opened by Liu Yumei. Looking at her granddaughter who wanted to go out, she could only timely drape a cloak over her body. Raising her head, she saw the boy sitting on the second-floor balcony. Liu Yumei’s heart was filled with mixed feelings. Was daytime not enough, and did they also want to play together in the evening? But looking at the boy’s indifferent expression, she was a little doubtful again: This child was fine at dinner time, how did he become like this now? Was he missing his mother at night? Although she said that it was a child’s nature returning, Liu Yumei felt that this little boy shouldn’t be so fragile. This posture was exactly like a copy of her own A Li sitting on the threshold before.
Soon, she saw her granddaughter’s figure appear on the second floor. The girl sat down in the rattan chair beside the boy. After a while, the girl actually took the initiative to divide the cloak on her body in half and cover the boy’s body. Liu Yumei’s eyes widened. Her own granddaughter would actually take the initiative to care for people? She had been living at Li Sanjiang’s home for a while, but A Li’s condition had only been controlled, not worsened. As for improving, there was no sign of it. Only after that boy also moved in with his great-uncle did A Li’s condition show signs of improvement, like a drop of water finally hanging on ice. But no matter how much it improved, it couldn’t compare to this day and night! First, she would nod and shake her head to express herself, and now she could even take this kind of initiative to care. Liu Yumei raised her head, not letting the tears urgently overflow her eye sockets. She truly saw the hope of her granddaughter’s recovery, and it seemed, it really wouldn’t take too long. She walked into the room and sat in front of the altar table, pointing at them: “A Li’s illness is also because of your irresponsibility. If you had kept a little bit of spirit to protect her according to tradition back then, A Li wouldn’t have become like that.” Picking up a handkerchief and wiping away her tears, Liu Yumei said with a crying voice: “If I had known that smashing your memorial tablets would be useful for A Li’s condition, I should have chopped you all up and burned you as firewood long ago.”
…
Li Zhuiyuan didn’t know when the girl came. She seemed to have been there for a long time. There was something covering his back, warm.
“You’re here?”
The girl looked at the boy. This time, she took the initiative to hold the boy’s hand. Then, she seemed to perceive something. While lowering her head, she pried open the boy’s palm. In the center of his palm, there was a wound. The girl’s fingertips stroked it. This was a rare warmth. The corner of Li Zhuiyuan’s mouth couldn’t help but show a smile, but this smile quickly stiffened. Because the girl’s five fingers were all pressed on the center of his palm. Five not long, not short nails directly stabbed into his flesh.
“Hiss…”
Li Zhuiyuan stood up in pain, his body almost twisted over. “A Li, I’m in pain, I’m in pain…”
They say ten fingers are connected to the heart, but the center of the palm is also soft and sensitive flesh. The girl’s five nails were deeply stabbed into the flesh and were still exerting force. This feeling was like plowing a hand with a rake. Earlier, when he was squatting by the channel side and took the initiative to reach out and grab the burning incense in Runsheng’s hand, he truly didn’t feel pain at that time, because he wasn’t normal at that time. But now, he was normal. Begging for mercy at this time also seemed to be ineffective. The girl, who always listened to his words the most, at this time, seemed to ignore him. Her eyelashes were trembling, her body was trembling, the light in her eyes disappeared, replaced by numbness. A dangerous aura emanated from her body. Before, every time she wanted to become violent, the boy only needed to hold her hand to soothe her, but now, it was the boy’s hand that was aggravating her violence.
Li Zhuiyuan withdrew his hand from the girl’s grasp. The girl’s body gradually calmed down, her eyelashes no longer trembled, and her eyelids hung low. She turned and walked towards the stairs. The cloak that had been covering them both fell down. Li Zhuiyuan picked it up and wanted to put it on the girl. But as he approached again, the girl stopped, and her back began to tremble. Li Zhuiyuan had to stop, and even stepped back a few steps. The girl returned to normal, continued walking forward, and her figure disappeared into the stairs. Soon, the girl appeared on the dam. The east room door was not closed, and she walked in.
Li Zhuiyuan stood on the second floor, still holding that piece of red cloak in his hand. Before, the girl always liked to collect everything related to them, but now, she not only refused contact with him, but also rejected things that touched him. Li Zhuiyuan lowered his head, looking at the five bleeding wounds in the center of his palm. It was still bleeding. He was in great pain, but not angry, instead, he felt very guilty. He used his left hand fingers to wipe away the blood, exposing the burn wound in the center area. He knew why the girl was suddenly angry. Because she discovered that the person she had originally entrusted with hope to help her climb out of the abyss was actually actively walking towards the abyss. The greatest torture in this world is to give you hope in despair, and then personally, with these hands, extinguish this spark of hope. She had originally, already gotten used to it.
Li Zhuiyuan rinsed the wound a bit, simply found a clean piece of cloth strip to bandage it, and then went back to his bedroom. He lay down on the bed. He didn’t know if sleepiness truly came, or if his subconscious craved a sleep that would restore everything after dawn. In any case, he slept. He slept very lightly, waking up many times from short sleeps due to inexplicable palpitations, but he didn’t open his eyes, forcing himself to continue sleeping. Finally, after he didn’t know how many times, through his eyelids, he felt the sense of bright light. The sky was bright. He turned over and opened his eyes. The chair by the door was empty.
Li Zhuiyuan took the washbasin and walked out of the bedroom. When he passed by his great-uncle’s room, he saw through the screen door that his great-uncle was not on the bed. After washing, he walked downstairs and couldn’t see Runsheng at the table on the first floor either. He didn’t sleep too late today, so why did everyone get up so early?
Li Zhuiyuan walked up to the dam. Liu Auntie walked out of the kitchen: “Xiao Yuan, good morning. Breakfast will be ready in a while.”
“Liu Auntie, where is my great-uncle?”
“The village chief came over before it was even light this morning and called your great-uncle to the town government, saying there was an urgent matter. Runsheng just carried your great-uncle there.”
Li Zhuiyuan nodded, then looked towards the east room. Behind the threshold of the east room, a girl in a black skirt sat there. Her feet were on the threshold, her gaze was straight, without any emotion.
“Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, come over quickly.”
In the morning, her granddaughter didn’t get up early as usual, and she just felt something was wrong. After getting up and dressing, she actually picked up a stool and sat behind the threshold. In an instant, Liu Yumei only felt the sky collapse! Now, the only hope she had was the boy.
Li Zhuiyuan walked towards the east room. As he approached a little, the girl’s body began to tremble, her hands unconsciously slowly clenched, and in the depths of her pupils, red appeared. Liu Yumei immediately reached out to stop Li Zhuiyuan from approaching, went forward and squatted beside her granddaughter, continuously soothing her with soft words. Her granddaughter’s reaction was more intense than when strangers approached before.
Li Zhuiyuan backed away some distance. After seeing the girl calm down under Liu Grandma’s soothing, he bit his lips and took a deep breath. Yes, it was the same as what he thought before going to sleep.
After a sleep, everything was restored.
…
“What, say it again, I didn’t hear clearly!” Li Sanjiang sat in the civil affairs bureau office, patting the table. He actually heard clearly, but he didn’t dare to believe it. The director of the civil affairs bureau and several staff members patiently repeated it to him. This was already the fourth time. They had also received a notice from their superiors, saying there was a matter that needed special handling and urgent approval, so they had come to the unit early to wait. Actually, after seeing the faxed documents, they also felt extremely confused. This year, is there still this kind of operation?
“Big grandpa, your name is Li Sanjiang, right?”
“I’ve brought my ID card and household registration, are you saying it’s correct?”
“Yes, yes, yes. Actually, the matter is already very clear. Now, it just depends on whether you are willing to sign. If you are not willing, we will just send these documents back.”
Li Sanjiang somewhat blankly picked up the pen, and asked: “If I sign this, will Xiao Yuan Hou just be registered in my household?”
