"Well, that's good, thank you guys." Long Yejue patted Xiao Zheng on the shoulder.

Ye Xirong also felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier, and he took a deep breath before slowly exhaling it.

"What are you talking about? So many people?" Aunt Wei appeared behind everyone at some point and asked curiously.

Tang Mianmian was so frightened that she almost showed her stuffing, and hurriedly explained, "Mom, are you awake?" Hungry? I'll get you something to eat. ”

"Not hungry, what are you talking about?" Aunt Wei is still concerned about this matter.

Tang Mianmian looked at Li Xinnian for help, Li Xinnian stepped forward to help her and said, "Mom, the succulent seedlings you planted last time have sprouted, do you want to go and see, I think you should water something." ”

"Ah, did it sprout? Watering may not work, but spraying is still fine. ”

Aunt Wei was still diverted.

Tang Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Li Xinnian to take Aunt Wei to the back garden, for fear of adding pressure to Ye Xirong.

In the garden, some of the succulent leaves that were planted last time are really sprouting, small, fleshy, and very cute.

As soon as Aunt Wei sees these things, she will forget about herself, forget about the things around her, and concentrate on taking care of them.

Li Xinnian and Tang Mianmian have been silently accompanying her without disturbing.

It is a rare quiet afternoon, the end of spring, the weather is sunny, the spring breeze is warm, and it is also the most brilliant time for the flesh.

Tang Mianmian chatted with Long Chenyu on WeChat, and he sent some photos related to Long Yaxi to her from time to time.

[Hee Hee has grown taller, he must miss his mother very much, right? ] Mom was going to come back, but something happened here, so I have to come back later, and you have to listen to grandma at home, you know? 】

Long Chenyu had very few words, like Tang Mianmian told such a big string, he would reply at most with a word.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, he replied with such a word.

Tang Mianmian was embarrassed, and couldn't help but complain, [Chenchen, don't you have anything to tell your mother? For example, you miss me or something? 】

Long Chenyu replied with a full stop.

can't chat happily, she admits defeat and compromises, [That's still a photo of Xixi.] 】

[Send you an interesting one.] 】

Seeing this reply, Tang Mianmian was surprised, Chen Chen actually replied with so many words, it was really a memorable moment, she couldn't wait for his photo.

Just thinking about it, her mobile phone vibrates, and it still vibrates continuously.

This shows that Chen Chen sent her a lot of photos.

Tang Mianmian couldn't wait to open it and take a look, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and nine......

She was dumbfounded.

This...... What are they?

But Chen Chen still said confidently, [It's interesting, isn't it? 】

The corners of Tang Mianmian's lips twitched fiercely, she didn't want to pour cold water, so she had to reply hard, [Hmm. 】

[Don't you find it interesting?] Don't you think it's cute? Chen Chen was not satisfied that his mother had suddenly become so brief.

[It's funny, it's cute, I didn't know Ruohuan was so cute. Tang Mianmian has already begun to violate her heart, the nine photos are all Shen Ruohuan sleeping, in her opinion, there is no difference, but for Long Chenyu, it is cute and interesting, as a mother, she just turns a blind eye and forgets it.

Long Chenyu was satisfied, [Finally, I'll give you another one, don't drink water before you see it.] 】

What does this mean by high-energy warning?

Tang Mianmian immediately put down the teacup in his hand and waited for the photo of Long Chenyu.

Waiting for the mobile phone to vibrate, she quickly clicked on it, and this time, whether she drank water or not, she was about to spray.

Especially when you zoom in, it makes people laugh and cry.

Because it was a love letter, a love letter written by Long Yaxi to Fu Yebai.

Reading between the lines is a childish description, a little cute, and a little unbearable.

Li Xinnian looked at Tang Mianmian for a while and looked helpless for a while, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What do you look so interesting about?"

"This, a love letter written by Hee-hee." Tang Mianmian showed the picture to Li Xinnian and smiled very helplessly.

Li Xinnian took it and looked at it seriously, and then said with a smile, "Xixi is really eccentric, it's so good, you are so happy to have such a little princess." ”

Tang Mianmian's heart tightened, and she remembered Li Xinnian's loss of her child, and she was a little embarrassed, "Sister, I haven't told Xixi and Chenchen your identity yet, I think that after we all go back, everyone will get together, have a good time, and get to know each other formally, and the children may understand." ”

"Hmm." Li Xin thought that she had no opinion, and saw her caution again, and said with a smile, "You don't have to be so restrained, I have accepted it calmly." ”

"You're still young, you still have a chance, if you really can't...... Do you do it manually, right?" Tang Mianmian also really wanted to do something for her.

Li Xinnian didn't think about this plan, so when she mentioned it, she just smiled helplessly, "I told Jun Che, he didn't agree, he said that it was the same with or without children, and he didn't want to add pressure to me." ”

"That's why he loves you."

"Well, I know that too, but let's just let it be." Li Xinnian's eyes drooped slightly, and he drank water from a teacup to hide the sadness in his eyes.

Tang Mianmian was also silent and did not speak.

There are too many words of comfort, and they can't change the facts, at this time, silent companionship is the best comfort.

After Aunt Wei took care of the meat, she also sat down to drink tea with them.

She seems to be in a good mood and always has a smile on her face.

Tang Mianmian remembered Long Yejue's words, pursed his lips and asked, "Mom, I see that you really like these cute little plants, when did you like them?"

As soon as she said this, Aunt Wei became cheerful, "More than thirty years ago, succulents were not very popular, there were not so many varieties as they are now, and almost no one planted them, but I fell in love with this small fleshy plant at that time. ”

"Why?" Li Xinnian asked, extremely curious.

Aunt Wei's face became a little shy, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, "Because we met because of this fleshy plant." ”

Sure enough, it was related to Nanjian, Tang Mianmian put down the cup and asked curiously, "Dad also planted this kind of plant before?"

"He? Do you think it's possible?" Aunt Wei looked disgusted.

Tang Mianmian and Li Xinnian glanced at each other, then shook their heads, and kept denying, "Impossible." ”

"That's right, how can a man who is so cold and hard like such cute little things?"

But Li Xinnian remembered his discovery, and hurriedly said, "When my father brought me some time ago, I found a thing, outside his room, you can always see large succulents, whether it is in Jiangcheng's residence, or where I lived before, and now Fengyu Palace, it is the same, it seems that he likes it very much." ”

"He loves the house and Wu like this because I like it." Aunt Wei explained with a smile, sweet in her heart.

"Mom, is that how you describe yourself?" Tang Mianmian said funny.

Aunt Wei also laughed, "But ah, he is indeed because I like it, he will like it, the upper class of the year, are popular flower arrangement, especially the daughter of a wealthy family, you must have such skills, in order to be regarded as temperamental, educated, but I don't like those flowers and the like, and I am also allergic to roses, so I stay away from those flowers." ”

Tang Mianmian sighed and seconded, "I'm also allergic to roses, it turns out that I inherited my mother's physique?"

"Ah, then you have to be careful, don't touch the roses." Aunt Wei nervously advised.

Li Xinnian was puzzled, "Are you allergic to roses?" But once before, I saw that Long Yejue had prepared a lot of roses for you?"

"You said that, that is a fake rose, Long Yejue found someone to make it with a special material, it looks like the real thing, but that's not real." Tang Mianmian explained.

Li Xinnian was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "This is quite similar to the style of Long Yejue." ”

Tang Mianmian was a little embarrassed.

Li Xinnian hurriedly said, "Don't mind, I mean, he has always spoiled you, so it's a matter of course to do these things, it's not strange at all." ”

It's okay that she didn't explain, but when she explained, she became more and more embarrassed.

Aunt Wei said, "So I'm not interested in any flower arrangement class at all, every time I go to the flower arrangement class, I will run away, and then find a place to sleep for an afternoon, and when I get out of school, I let the driver pick me up, but again, I was in the park where I slept, and found this fleshy plant, which was still a very ordinary variety at that time, but it was very cute, and I was curious to dig some at that time, because this thing must be held carefully, so I wrapped it in a scarf, and it turned out to be hit by your father, and it was all broken." ”

Speaking of the past, the look on Aunt Wei's face was particularly vivid, as if the past was happening right in front of her.

"At that time, I was angry, because it was a plant that I had been digging for a long time, and I was trying to argue with him, only to see him fall in front of me with a wound, and his clothes were stained red with blood, I was frightened, and I ran away, in those days, the security was not as good as it is now, and there was chaos everywhere, and families like ours had to be even more cautious, for fear of getting into trouble, and I was timid by nature, so I was even more afraid."

***

Thirty-two years ago.

In a park somewhere on the outskirts of Italy.

The winter snow hasn't fallen yet, but it's still shivering.

The chaotic trees in the park, in Nian Yingrui's eyes at this moment, seem to have become her stumbling blocks.

What happened just now made her so scared that she was desperate to move forward, panicking.

But if one of them didn't pay attention, she fell.

It's heavy and it hurts.

The knee was so painful that she couldn't stand, so she could only sit on the ground, hug her knee and cry bitterly.

Why is this happening?

If she knew that this was the case, she shouldn't have skipped class, even if it was her least favorite flower arrangement class, she should have gotten it, otherwise she wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing today.

It was getting dark, and in those days there was no such communication tool as a mobile phone, and the driver would only pick her up at the right time and at the right place.

If she can't go back, the driver won't be able to find it.

Are you going to spend the night here?

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, and the more scared she became, the more she cried.

The crows flew by, making the approaching night even more terrifying.

"Father, father......" she murmured in fear.
