In our vast life stories, there are some episodes that are so shocking that they not only rewrite a person's fate, but also touch the hearts of everyone who touches the story. Imagine a 12-year-old boy who mysteriously disappeared in 1991, and exactly 18 years later, he found his birthplace with a vague memory. This is not the plot of the TV series, but the story that really happened to Zhou Peng. How does the experience of a man being sold by his own mother affect his life, and how does he uncover the truth step by step to find his long-lost family? Follow my pen to explore this almost unbelievable experience.
In faraway Guizhou, there is a carpenter named Jin Kailiang, whose life changed dramatically in 1991. That year, his wife and six children suddenly disappeared, leaving him alone. Despite his disability, Jin Kailiang never gave up hope of finding them.
18 years later, in 2009, a 30-year-old man named Zhou Peng suddenly appeared in front of Jin Kailiang. Zhou Peng saw a missing person notice on the Internet, which not only evoked his memories, but also directly pointed to his long-lost family. It turned out that Zhou Peng was Jin Dajiang, the missing eldest son of the Jin family.
The story begins with that stormy night, 12-year-old Jin Dajiang was woken up by his mother and hurriedly followed his mother out of the house. The group of them walked quickly in the night, and finally came to a strange place - Henan. There, Kim Dajiang watched as his mother handed him and his younger siblings over to someone else in exchange for some money. In this way, he was forced to say goodbye to his biological mother and start a new life.
In a farming family in Henan, Jin Dajiang's name was changed to Zhou Peng. Despite having a new family, Zhou Peng's heart has never been calm. Although his adoptive parents had the grace of nurturing him, they were more out of their own need for a son to inherit the family business. Zhou Peng's childhood was spent slowly in this complex emotion. He often recalled the night he was forced to leave home, and the vague faces and voices in his memory.
As he grew older, Zhou Peng became more and more curious and confused about his life experience. He began to search the Internet for all kinds of missing person information, hoping to find his real family. It wasn't until 2009 that a coincidence of fate brought him to that post about Kim Kai-liang looking for his family. The details mentioned in the post surprisingly matched his memories, which made that hope in his heart burn even more.
Zhou Peng resolutely went to Guizhou, and when he stood in front of Jin Kailiang, although Jin Kailiang could not speak because of his physical defects, the eye contact between the two was enough to prove the fact that they were connected by blood. Zhou Peng told Jin Kailiang about his experience of being sold, which shocked and painfully Jin Kailiang, but also solved his doubts for many years.
After a profound conversation and recognition, Zhou Peng and Jin Kailiang began to try to repair the complicated family relationship of those years. Zhou Peng also tried to find the whereabouts of his other siblings, but it was not easy. Over the years, people's lives have changed dramatically, some have moved to other countries, and some have not been heard from at all.
Zhou Peng's life is also gradually on the right track. While he can't forget the pain of his past, he learns to accept and face it. He knows that although his experience is full of ups and downs and misfortunes, every detail has shaped him today. Zhou Peng is looking for his place in society, but he is also constantly trying to help those children who have suffered misfortune, hoping that they can have a better future.
Zhou Peng's story is not only a journey of searching for roots across time and space, but also a profound reflection on identity, family and belonging. In this story, we see the complexity of human nature and the power of family affection.
