Chapter 218: Referrals
Squatting in front of the tombstone, An Yunuo cried like a tearful person, Gan Yunting did not stop her, but squatted beside her and accompanied her silently.
He helped her wipe away her tears from time to time, and also helped her wipe the tombstone clean by the way, so that the words on it were clearer.
Li Qingge. ”
It wasn't the first time he had looked at the tombstone so closely.
After following An Yunuo once before, he would often come here to see, and for some reason, he always felt that he felt extremely relieved to be here.
At that time, the government workers knew that he was an orphan without a father and mother, and only relied on the lonely old people in the village to support him, and thought that they wanted to send him to an orphanage.
Life there was much better than he had at that time, and if he was lucky, he could find someone willing to adopt him, and it would not be better than him living in that half-ruined house now.
But he just didn't want to go.
Every time he saw someone around his house from afar, he ran away, and every time, when he couldn't find a place to go, he would come to the tombstone and stay until dark.
Maybe it's because this is her mother's tombstone, as long as she looks at her name on it, Gan Yunting feels very relieved.
It was precisely because of this tombstone and An Yunuo that he said that he was unwilling to go to the orphanage for anything.
Later, the government people had no choice but to send him some daily necessities from time to time to care about his life.
Because a child like him who does not want to go to the orphanage, even if he is forcibly sent in, he will escape one day, and at that time, his life will not necessarily be much better than it is now.
He is living again now, and there are still people watching him, if he really slips away from the orphanage, then he will really become a street child.
The government personnel were also unwilling to do such immoral things, so they could only come to see him every once in a while and bring him some food and donated goods with love, so as not to let him starve to death and freeze to death.
They even helped him find a decent house and let him move in, but he was willing to stay in this half-room dilapidated house, let the wind and rain blow, and never leave.
In the end, they had no choice but to buy bricks and help him repair the house so that he would not be frozen every day in the winter.
Relying on the support of these people, he barely survived elementary school and entered junior high school.
An Yunuo cried while whispering about his situation over the years.
She picked up the good ones and said that she didn't say a word about the things that her uncle's family had done to her.
Gan Yunting knew that she didn't want her mother to be sad, so she pretended not to know and let her talk slowly.
An Yunuo said, accompanied by Gan Yunting.
After she reported all her life over the years, the sky began to darken.
This village is almost uninhabited, and although Qingyi came to take a look in advance, Gan Yunting is still worried that it will not be safe after nightfall.
Seeing An Yunuo sobbing and snorting, he didn't talk much anymore, he handed her another tissue and dragged her up from the ground.
"Well, that's all that's to be said, it's not getting early, we have to leave, or we won't be able to leave when it gets dark. ”
This winter night could come at any time.
It's just a little dark now, and who can guarantee that it won't be completely dark in half an hour.
Although An Yunuo didn't want to leave yet, she also knew that it might not be safe to stay here for a long time.
She wiped her tears, sniffed, and dragged Gan Yunting to the tombstone.
Gan Yunting didn't know what she was going to do, so he stood by her side fixedly.
"Mom, this is Gan Yunting, he is the person his daughter wants to spend her life with, and I will show him to you today, I just hope you can like him. ”
Gan Yunting never expected that An Yunuo would have this reason.
He always thought that she wanted to come home to see, just thinking about her mother, but he didn't expect that she actually wanted to officially introduce herself to her mother.
Although there was only a cold tombstone in front of him, Gan Yunting was still at a loss.
He didn't know how to speak, he never thought An Yunuo would do such a thing.
He looked at the tombstone, which was barely visible in the shade of the tree, and was dumbfounded for a moment, not knowing what to say.
His body also tensed, and An Yunuo sensed his nervousness, broke into a smile, and quietly pushed him.
"Don't worry, Mommy will like you. ”
"Really?"
Gan Yunting looked at her with some disbelief, and his instinctive questioning made An Yunuo feel heartwarming.
"Of course, because I like you. ”
Holding his arm and resting his head on his shoulder, An Yunuo felt that everything had been explained to his mother.
Her reliance made Gan Yunting feel a lot more at ease.
Seeing her head so close to him, his heart didn't seem to beat so hard.
He turned his head again, looked at the tombstone that he couldn't see clearly, and straightened his throat.
"Mom, please rest assured, I will definitely take care of her, and I will never fail her in this life. ”
This is his promise, to his mother-in-law, who he has never met, and to himself.
On the way back, the two were speechless all the way.
Today's events have brought the distance between the two one step closer.
Sitting in yesterday's restaurant, the two of them came to another set according to yesterday's dishes.
The same dish, the same skewers, and the same talkative shopkeeper, the two of them look much warmer today than yesterday.
Listening to the shopkeeper talk about the old past between him and the proprietress of the shop, Gan Yunting quietly squeezed An Yunuo's hand under the table.
An Yunuo turned her head and smiled at him.
In this life, he won't fail her, how can she fail him?
Otherwise, she would not have introduced him to her mother so solemnly in front of her mother's tombstone.
She no longer has any relatives, but she still wants to let Gan Yunting know that he is important in her heart.
Even if it's just a tombstone, she has to solemnly introduce him.
This was the only thing she could do for him.
Gan Yunting was very grateful that she could think of herself so much, and the more she thought about him so much, the more he didn't dare to let go.
I am afraid that I will fail her, live up to her efforts, and live up to her deep affection.
At night, the two returned to their respective rooms to rest.
And tonight, An Yunuo slept very peacefully.
Maybe it was because she cried a lot during the day, or maybe because of a matter on her mind, she went to bed early.
But Gan Yunting lay on the bed and couldn't sleep for a long time.
An Yunuo has introduced herself to her family, which is an official recognition of herself as her future husband.
And what about him?
And when would he introduce her to his only relative?
