Chapter 44: To England
At London Heathrow, it's six o'clock in the morning and it's not yet dawn. The weather was gloomy, it should be raining soon, and the temperature was low.
Shen Ziyin, who was wearing a pink thin down jacket, pushed her suitcase and walked towards the taxi. A few minutes later, Shen Ziyin, who was sitting in a black taxi, chatted with the driver in English, and then looked out the window, she was really tired after more than ten hours on the plane, she only slept for two or three hours on the plane, she just couldn't sleep, she missed her father, and she also missed Ou Yunlang. She looked at the city, everything here was so familiar and friendly to her, if she and Ou settled here in the future, then this place would really become her second home. But what about her beloved father? Will she really give up?
Dozens of minutes later, Shen saw Big Ben, an iconic building in London, in the car window, and she was very excited, how many times she and Anne had come here on their bicycles, and there were their laughter and their footprints.
Fifteen minutes later, the taxi arrived at Anne's house. It is a semi-detached house, that is, a large row of houses, divided into one household, and the walls on both sides are shared with neighbors, which is equivalent to a Chinese townhouse. Although the two sides of the house cannot be ventilated, there are two gardens in front and back, and Shen Ziyin likes flowers and plants, and she plants tulips, roses, camellias and violets in the garden. Shen Ziyin took out the key and quickly opened the gate of the courtyard. After entering, he quickly opened the door of the house. Shen Ziyin lightly changed into slippers, because it was not yet dawn, and the maid and Anne had not yet gotten up, she was afraid that she would wake them up.
"Casey, is that you?" the yawning maid walked out of the bedroom on the first floor.
"It's me, Aunt Jing, I'm sorry to wake you up. Shen hurriedly responded, she was apologetic, but she didn't expect that she still woke her up. Aunt Jing is a distant sister of Anne's mother's family, who married an Englishman when she was young, and later did not remarry after the divorce. Although the Li family invited her to take care of Anne, Shen and Anne never treated her as a servant, and most of the time they did laundry, cooking, and housework by themselves, because Aunt Jing was usually very busy, and she also had a profession as a freelance writer.
"It's okay, anyway, I have to get up early to catch up today. Kathy, you're hungry, I'll make breakfast right away. You take a break. By the way, Anne's aunt came yesterday and has to stay in your room, so if you're sleepy, sleep in my room first. Aunt Jing whispered, as if she was afraid that others would hear her.
Shen immediately smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not sleepy, I'll just rest on the sofa." ”
"I actually prepared a room for her, but she ........." Aunt Jing shrugged her shoulders to Shen, with a helpless and opinionated expression.
"Aunt Jing, I don't mind, are you okay these days?" Shen changed the topic, in fact, she didn't mind that Anne's aunt lived in her room at all, Anne's aunt was also a very good person, although she looked graceful and luxurious, giving people a feeling of rejection, but it was very comfortable and kind to touch.
"Anne and I feel very lonely in your absence, is your mother's illness better, how long are you going to stay in the country?"
"My mother's illness has stabilized, and it's hard to say how long I'm going to stay. Actually, I miss you a lot, too. Shen took out two boxes of Biluochun from his travel bag and handed them to Aunt Jing. "Aunt Jing, I brought you your favorite tea." ”
"Thank you! You're still the best for me. You rest on the couch for a while, and I'll go change and make breakfast. Aunt Jing had a happy smile on her face, and then ran back to the bedroom to change her clothes.
Shen Ziyin sat on the sofa and looked at her mobile phone, when she first arrived at home, Ou sent her ten messages, and Aunt Jing was embarrassed to look at her mobile phone. Ou's hush, warmth, and worry made Shen very happy. Shen told Ou that she was sleepy and that she was going to sleep for a while. Shen then told Aunt Jing that she was going to sleep in the upstairs guest room, because Aunt Jing had just told her that the upstairs guest room was for Anne's aunt, but Anne's aunt had to stay in her room, so now she could go to the guest room.
Shen Ziyin fell asleep on the warm bed, she was really sleepy. She slept until eleven o'clock in the morning and did not wake up, and in her sleep she could always feel someone caressing her face, and her hands were warm and smooth. After a good night's sleep, she felt refreshed and finally opened her eyes. The moment she opened her eyes, she found a graceful lady staring at her. Shen hurriedly sat up from the bed, smiled awkwardly and said, "Hello aunt! ”
Anne's aunt hurriedly smiled and shook her head, "It's eleven o'clock in the morning, child, you should be hungry." ”
Shen Ziyin didn't expect that she had slept all morning, and she hadn't done what she had to do. "Auntie, I've been asleep for so long, I'm really a little hungry. Shen said as he got up. She slept in a low-necked satin dressing gown with a collar that reached just above her collarbone. She put on her slippers and looked up at her aunt, she found that her aunt was just staring at her neck, she realized it later, and suddenly smiled at her aunt very shyly, and then hurriedly turned around and picked up the silk scarf on the sofa and wrapped it around herself. Because she had several strawberry marks left on her neck.
When my aunt saw her so flustered, she didn't ask anything, she was from here, and of course she understood what was going on. "Casey, go wash up, I'll be waiting for you in the restaurant on the first floor." ”
"Oh, okay, I'll be right away. Shen was extremely embarrassed, and she was still embarrassed by what had just happened.
Then the aunt left the bedroom, and Shen went to the bathroom to wash.
In S City, it was seven o'clock in the evening, and Ou Yunlang was having dinner at Lan Yi's. Shen was not there, he felt that his heart was empty, and he couldn't be interested in anything.
"Brother, have you only been separated from her for two days? Are you like this? Do you only have love in your eyes? Is love really so great?" Lan Yi was a little angry with her brother, not that she was jealous, but that she felt that her brother should not take love as the whole of his life, and his brother was so deeply involved, in case ......... Alas, she didn't dare to think about it.
"You don't understand, you'll know when you're in love. Ou replied.
"Cut, there are many people in love, and I haven't seen you like this. Lan Yi looked unconvinced.
"Alas, you're not a party to the party, how would you know?I don't know if Yin Yin woke up?" Ou thought of Shen, and he looked worried again.
"Worry about it, maybe people are having fun right now. If you had known that, you should have gone with her. "Lan Yi really can't stand it, my brother may be the life of a wife slave in this life.
"Do you think I don't want to go? Ou is face is helpless.
At Anne's house in London, Shen quickly washed up and went downstairs, Aunt Jing was sitting on the sofa watching TV, she saw Shen coming downstairs, she hurriedly beckoned her to come over. Shen smiled and walked over to her and sat down.
"She's ready for lunch. It's quite hearty, and you say that such a beautiful and rich wife can still cook such a good dish, is it really going to make people jealous? She also made your favorite salt-and-pepper prawns? and made soup. Aunt Jing was jealous and envious, it seemed that she didn't like Anne's aunt very much.
"Oh, then she must be exhausted, I'll take a look. Anne said as she got up and walked to the kitchen.
"Auntie, you are so capable! These dishes are really delicious. Shen was surprised as soon as he entered the kitchen. The kitchen counter is full of dishes, and there are more than a dozen of them.
"Really, then you need to eat more at noon, you see that your weight is so painful that my aunt is distressed, come over to Casey, and help my aunt taste this chicken soup." My aunt put a spoonful of chicken soup in a spoon and fed it to Shen's mouth.
"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious. Shen Ziyin told the truth.
"Then you should drink a little more soup at noon to replenish your body. My aunt said with a smile.
Shen Ziyin nodded, at this time she was moved and grateful in her heart, she thought of maternal love, her mother had never cared about her like this. Alas, my aunt is really a good person, she will be so good to her even an outsider, so whoever is her child must be very, very happy.
