Grandma beckoned, and Lu Youyou hurriedly ran over: "Grandma, where are you going to take me?"

"You'll know when you get there. Grandma smiled at Lu Youyou mysteriously, and left on crutches, and Lu Youyou hurriedly followed.

Lu Youyou followed, just took two steps, and turned her head to look at Ling Zhaoting.

Ling Zhaoting gave her a "you can rest assured" look, and Lu Youyou followed her grandmother away.

Grandma took Lu Youyou out of the gate, turned left, and kept walking forward.

I walked for a long time, and I didn't mean to stop.

Lu Youyou looked around, they were all unfamiliar streets, strange people, and she didn't know any of them.

In the end, she couldn't help but ask, "Grandma, where are you going to take me?"

Grandma's footsteps did not stop at all, and said, "It's coming soon, you'll know in a while." ”

Lu Youyou suppressed the doubts in her heart and continued to follow her grandmother forward.

I don't know how long it took, but grandma finally stopped.

Grandma looks like she is eighty or ninety years old, but she didn't expect her physical strength to be so good, and she walked for so long, and her face was not red or panting.

Lu Youyou was a little gasped, she was a little embarrassed: "Grandma, where is this?"

"See for yourself. ”

Lu Youyou turned the corner of the street, looked up, and saw that there was a cemetery in front of her!

"Grandma, what are you bringing me here for?"

"Aren't you going to see your mother? Your mother's grave is there, you can go and see it. ”

"What?" Lu Youyou suspected she had misheard.

Didn't the reaction of my grandmother and uncle already show that my mother was not dead? Now what is my grandmother taking her to see her mother's grave?

Seeing the doubts on Lu Youyou's face, grandma said: "Your mother is there, you only have this one chance, if you miss it, you will never see each other again." ”

Lu Youyou nodded hurriedly and said, "I know grandma, I'll go and see it." ”

She came to the place that her grandmother was pointing to, and the picture of her mother on the tombstone was very young and her smile was very bright. Moreover, this tombstone has traces of being exposed to the wind and sun, and it looks a little old.

"Grandma, do you mean that my mother is here?"

"Yes, don't you want to see it? ”

Lu Youyou stared at the woman in the photo for a long time, and said, "No, grandma, are you lying to me, right? Mom, she's not dead yet, this tomb is just to hide people's eyes, right?"

I didn't expect her to say this, grandma was surprised for a moment, and said: "Lu Youyou, you haven't been back for so many years, and as soon as you come back, you will find your mother and bring you here, but you don't believe it, what do you want to do?"

"Grandma, I'm sorry, I haven't come back for so long because I'm really busy......"

You can't tell the old man that she's born again, can you?

Lu Youyou took a deep breath and continued: "I'm really sorry, I'll come back to see you as soon as I have time." I'm about to marry Ling Zhaoting, so I'll be even busier, but I'll still find time to come over to see you in the future. ”

"I'm an eighty or ninety-year-old woman, half-cut into the ground, and I don't care about that. ”

"However, you have to look at your mother, it's better to see it clearly, and the next time you come, you may not have this opportunity. ”

"Grandma, what do you mean by that?"

Lu Youyou always felt that her grandmother had something to say, but her grandmother refused to tell her, which made her very anxious.

Grandma didn't speak, Lu Youyou cleared her throat, and said, "Grandma, why is my uncle's statement different from yours?"

"What did he say?"

"My uncle said that my mother didn't want to see me and my father, as if it was because my father did something that made my mother unhappy, so she kept avoiding everything. ”

Grandma was stunned for a moment and fell into deep thought.

As soon as she saw that Grandma began to waver, Lu Youyou immediately came to her senses and continued: "Grandma, Dad has been busy with work all these years, and he hasn't looked for it again, if there is any misunderstanding that causes Mom to refuse to see me and Dad, wouldn't it be too wronged for so many years?"

"If your father had a conscience, wouldn't he come back to see us after so many years? I'm afraid he would have married a new love a long time ago, and you didn't know it. ”

"No, grandma, really not, my dad is alone. ”

Lu Youyou didn't dare to say anything about Chen Mengqing and Aunt Hui, before she met her mother, the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, otherwise it would only bring endless trouble.

"Lu Youyou, you are very filial, I know this, but there is one thing you must also be clear. Everyone has the right to choose their own life, and no one else has the right to interfere, understand? ”

After Grandma finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Lu Youyou looked at the photos on the tombstone again, and always felt that it was impossible for her mother to die.

However, she didn't say anything more, turned around and followed her grandmother away.

Grandma didn't go straight home, but went to an empty park nearby.

She sat on the bench and beckoned to Lu Youyou.

Lu Youyou walked over and said, "Grandma." ”

Grandma patted the position next to her and said, "Sit down." ”

Lu Youyou sat down obediently, and grandma said again: "You and Ling Zhaoting have already met relatives at home, right?

Except for my uncle, the other relatives insisted that my mother had died. But my uncle has a close relationship with the family, and if my mother really died, why did my uncle reveal so much information to me?"

"Child, you are still young, and there are many things that you don't understand. When you get married to Ling Zhaoting, let's live a good life, and don't come back. ”

"Grandma, what do you mean by that? You will always be my grandma, and as long as I live, I will definitely come to see you. ”

"You also understand your uncle's attitude, this time it was Ling Zhaoting with you, your uncle didn't go too far, next time if you come back alone, maybe it will be. ”

Lu Youyou thought about it and didn't understand: "Grandma, what does this mean?"

"Your uncle has the best relationship with your mother, and if your father did something like that, will your uncle let him go? If your father really comes back, it is not impossible for your uncle to beat him. ”

"Grandma, what are you talking about? My dad really isn't like that!"

She has explained so many times, why does grandma still not believe it?

Lu Youyou bit her lower lip, no, she can't get an answer to this matter from her grandmother, she must find a way.

It's better to start with my father, maybe my father will think about it carefully and come up with some clues.

Since grandma and the others don't plan to tell her the truth, and they have been hiding their mother's existence, let's put an end to this matter for the time being.

After she finishes the wedding, find a chance to ask what is going on.

"I know, grandma, next week's wedding, I want you to attend with your uncle, okay?"

"I'm not going to go with this old bone, Lu Youyou, I wish you and Ling Zhaoting a hundred years of happiness. ”

After Grandma finished speaking, she left on crutches, leaving nothing superfluous for her.

When she got home, Lu Youyou hung her head and entered the room.

Seeing this, Ling Zhaoting frowned, but he didn't ask too much.

After eating, Lu Youyou said: "Grandma, we came back this time to inform the wedding, since everyone already knows the news that we are going to get married, then we should also leave." ”

"Why don't you stay a few more days? Don't you come back and look around?"

"Grandma, there are a lot of things to prepare before getting married, so I won't waste time, and when the time comes, I hope you and your uncle can come. ”

Although grandma has refused, Lu Youyou still hopes that the relatives at home will witness that happy moment.

After Lu Youyou finished speaking, she left many gifts for her grandmother, and pulled Ling Zhaoting away.

After they left, Aunt Rong sighed and said, "Old lady, why are you doing this?"

"There are some things that they still don't know. The more you know, the more trouble you have. ”

After Grandma said this, she turned around and went back to the room, and Aunt Rong also went to work with a tangled face.

Back in the car, Ling Zhaoting was a little different: "Lu Youyou, didn't you say that you should be good and play for a few more days? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Lu Youyou lowered her eyes: "Grandma doesn't seem to want me to continue to ask about my mother again, no matter how much I stay, it's no good, it's better to go home early." ”

"So...... Won't this matter be investigated?"

"No, of course I have to check. Ling Zhaoting, when I finish everything I need to do and am free, I must find out about this matter. ”

"How are you going to check?"

"Grandma and Aunt Rong can't get any definite news, so Dad should always find out something. ”

Since grandma chose to hide it, and my father didn't find out about it for so many years, they must have concealed it very well.

Since none of them wanted her to know about it, she couldn't ask anything if she asked directly.

Lu Youyou is not very sure, but she still has to give it a try.

She twisted her face out of the window with some annoyance, Ling Zhaoting twisted the music play button in the car, and Lu Youyou's favorite song sounded in the stereo, and her mood was slightly better.

I don't know how long it took for the two to get home.

Lu Youyou took a shower exhausted, then fell asleep on the bed in the bedroom......

This sleep, it was not until the next night that Lu Youyou woke up.

She didn't know why she was so tired, she obviously didn't do any work!

Maybe it's because there's too much stuff in my mind.

She rubbed her hair irritably, quickly got up and washed her face and went downstairs.

The strange thing is that none of the servants in the house are there, only An An sits at the dining table with a resentful face.

"Why are you here alone?"

"Mommy, the maids and aunts were all transferred away by Dad. ”

"Transferred? Why?"

An An pointed to the kitchen: "Mommy, it looks like we're going to be hungry tonight." ”

Lu Youyou frowned, walked downstairs quickly, walked over to take a look, and found that Ling Zhaoting was busy in front of the stove.

She immediately understood, and her expression changed: "Ling Zhaoting, what are you doing here?"

"Seeing that you are so tired, I have learned a few new dishes to replenish your body. ”

Belch......

Ling Zhaoting's words were very intimate, with a look of "I'm all for your good, you can't help but appreciate it", so that Lu Youyou didn't even have room to refuse.

She can't discourage this man, can she?

Although those dishes are unpalatable, one of the "color and flavor" can be ignored, and I can barely swallow it.

"Mommy!" An An pursed her lips, looking at her with big black eyes, trying to ask her for help.

Lu Youyou whispered in his ear: "An An, this is your father's hard work, no matter how bad it is, you have to be polite, you can't be like last time, you know?"

An An nodded with a painful look on her face and said, "But Mommy, I'd rather be hungry than eat those dishes made by my father......"

Lu Youyou touched his head: "Good, you can bear with it for the time being." ”

"No, I don't want to eat, I'm not hungry!"

"What can a child do without eating? Ling Zhaoting's voice came from far and near in the kitchen, followed by the two small bowls in front of him.
