"What did your dad say?" asked Xiao Zhengke.

"My dad didn't say anything, he didn't want to say it. Xiao Xiao replied.

"It's okay, I'll keep an eye on Liu Danan and ask. Xiao Zhengke paused and continued, "Wife, I'll sleep for a while, and call me at three o'clock." ”

"Got it. Xiao Xiao nodded.

Father Xiao put the book on the table, leaned back in the chair and sighed, he thought back to his past with Liu Yu, and his face was melancholy.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Zhengke stood on the balcony and dialed Liu Danan's phone, "Da Nan, your mother should know Xiao Xiao's father, have you contacted your mother?"

"I talked to her on the phone this morning, and she didn't say a few words, but what she said was resentment towards Xiao Xiao's family. ”

"Resentment? What is the festivity between them?"

"My mom didn't say it, so I don't know. ”

"Okay, I got it. ”

Xiao Zhengke hung up the phone and stood on the balcony and pondered for a long time......

Half a month later, Liu Yu returned to Shanghai, and Xiao Zhengke came to Liu Danan's house. As soon as he entered the door, Liu Danan stepped forward to greet him warmly, "Zhengke, you are here, sit down." ”

Xiao Zhengke put the fruit in his hand on the coffee table, "Is your mother here?"

"My mom isn't here. Liu Danan replied.

"When will she come back?" asked Xiao Zhengke.

"She's not coming back. Liu Danan smiled slightly.

"What? Your mother doesn't live here. Xiao Zhengke was dumbfounded.

"Of course you don't live here, have you seen her when you came here before?" Liu Danan sat on the sofa and opened the bag, "What kind of fruit did you buy, I'll take a look." ”

"Where does your mother live?" Xiao Zhengke asked again.

"She lives in COSCO Liangwan City. Liu Danan replied.

"Big brother, why didn't you tell me earlier, I came to visit your mother, not to see you. Xiao Zhengke snatched the fruit bag from the coffee table and put it behind him.

"You didn't tell me you wanted to see my mom before you came. Liu Danan looked aggrieved.

"You are forceful, I don't come to see your mother, so I can't come to see you. Xiao Zhengke's eyes widened with anger.

"Hey, why don't you let me eat a fruit, I'm hungry when I look at so many fruits. Liu Danan tried to bring the fruit, but was stopped by Xiao Zhengke.

"You still want to eat fruit, no way, take me to your mother. Xiao Zhengke's words revealed impersonal indifference.

"My mom will come over in the afternoon, and she'll stay here with me in the evening. The curvature of Liu Danan's mouth was slightly raised, and his lips opened slightly.

Xiao Zhengke looked at his watch and took a deep breath, "Big brother, it's ten o'clock in the morning, and I'm going to wait here for a day." ”

"Who told you to come so early?"

"Big brother, can you let your own mother come over early?"

Liu Danan saw that he was impatient, so he reluctantly agreed. He dialed his mother's number, "Mom, what are you doing?"

"I'm packing up my things and I'll bring them to you in the afternoon. ”

"Mom, I have a friend here who wants to stay at home for dinner, but I don't know how to do it, can you come and help me cook something delicious?"

"Okay, but I guess it's going to be late, and I haven't finished packing my things yet. ”

"It's okay, you're busy first, we'll wait for you as late as you want. ”

Liu Danan hung up the phone and smiled at Xiao Zhengke, "It's done, now I can eat fruit." ”

Xiao Zhengke's slender and straight legs were folded on the sofa, "Thank you, you can eat any fruit." ”

At half past twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Yu came to Liu Danan's house, "Son, I'm here, I brought you a lot of northern specialties from Shijiazhuang." ”

"Hello, Aunt Liu. Xiao Zhengke greeted Liu Yu very politely.

"Hello, who are you?" Liu Yu was dressed plainly and very kindly.

"I'm a friend of the big man, you can just call me Xiao Ke. ”

"Ah, Xiao Ke, hello. ”

Liu Danan came out of the bathroom, "Mom, you're finally here, I'm dying of hunger." ”

"Son, wait a little longer, Mom will make you food right away. Liu Yu carried the bag in his hand into the kitchen.

An hour later, the table was full of stir-fried dishes, Xiao Zhengke smelled the fragrance and walked over, "Auntie, your cooking skills are so good, you actually fried five dishes at once." ”

"You must be hungry, so I've made a few more dishes, and I don't know if they will suit your appetite. The corners of Liu Yu's mouth raised slightly.

Liu Danan walked over and sat down, "It's finally time to eat." ”

The three of them talked and laughed, and everyone had a great appetite and ate a lot. After lunch, Xiao Zhengke offered to help Liu Yu wash the dishes, but she politely refused.

Xiao Zhengke sat next to Liu Danan and said softly, "Da Nan, when your mother comes out of the kitchen, you can ask her about Uncle Xiao." ”

"Okay, I got it. Liu Danan nodded.

After a while, Liu Yu came out of the kitchen, "Big man, I put some food in the refrigerator, and when I am not there in the future, you can eat it hot by yourself." ”

"Got it, Mom, come and sit down, let's talk. ”

"Okay. Liu Yu sat on the sofa.

"Mom, I called you a few days ago to ask about something, do you remember? Liu Danan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Remember, why did you suddenly remember to ask about this?" Liu Yu's expression was obviously a little embarrassed.

"Mom, I asked you to prove your innocence. Li Danan looked at his mother fixedly.

"How do you explain this? What innocence?" Liu Yu Erzhang was puzzled.

Xiao Zhengke interjected, "Auntie, what is the relationship between Xiao Lisheng and you?"

"Do you know Xiao Lisheng?" Liu Yu was very surprised.

"Yes, Uncle Xiao is the chairman of the Shaw Group, and we have a working relationship. Xiao Zhengke replied.

Liu Yu sighed, "I didn't want to mention this, I wanted to hide it for the rest of my life." ”

"Mom, what the hell are your secrets? Liu Danan's brows frowned slightly.

Liu Yu looked at the anxious Liu Danan, his eyes were full of tears, and he was very embarrassed, "Son, didn't you always ask me about your father before? In fact, he is not dead, he is Xiao Lisheng." ”

"What?" Liu Danan poked there in amazement like half a piece of wood.

Xiao Zhengke's face turned blue, he was shocked, his hair stood up coldly like a demon, and his dazed brain was like a blank piece of paper.

"Mom, since my father is alive, why don't you let me recognize him?" Liu Danan's voice was a little low, and he could hear the sadness in his heart from his voice.

"It's not that I won't let you admit it, it's your grandfather who won't let you admit it. Liu Yu gritted his teeth with hatred when he mentioned this.

"Why didn't my grandfather let me recognize my father?" asked Liu Danan again.

"I was born in a poor mountain village, and my mother was very weak, so she gave birth to only one child. I didn't have enough to eat since I was a child, and when I was seventeen years old, I went to work in the city. I've worked as a hotel waiter, as a nanny, and as a cleaner. Liu Yu's pale face was not bloody.

"After I stayed in Shijiazhuang for two years, I received the news that my father was seriously ill, but the money I earned was only enough for my own food and clothing, and I had no money to treat my father's illness. Liu Yu's eyes changed for a few seconds, and some memories were surging like a flood, hitting people's minds quickly, and the wind and clouds were like a meeting.

"One day, I received a guest, and this guest was Xiao Lisheng, who was sitting in a private room smoking with a sad face. When I washed his feet and pressed the important acupuncture points, he didn't react, it was clearly absent-minded, I asked more, 'Sir, do you have anything on your mind?', he didn't answer, threw down 500 yuan, and left. Liu Yu was very sad, tears flowed out of his eyes, and his heart was like a pearl with a broken thread spilled on the ground.

Liu Danan took a tissue and wiped the tears from the corners of his mother's eyes.

After that, he came back a few more times, and every time he came and didn't talk to me, he was always frowning and worried. One day he drank too much and pressed me to the bed, I struggled, picked up the cup next to me and smashed it directly on his head, he was taken to the hospital, and I was fired for this incident. Liu Yu sobbed a few times and took a deep breath.

Xiao Zhengke poured a cup of hot water and put it in front of Liu Yu, "Auntie, drink some water." ”

"I was worried about Xiao Lisheng's safety, so I went to visit him in the hospital, but I didn't expect him to not only blame me, but also apologize to me. When he found out that I had been fired, he took pity on me and gave me a thousand dollars, and in return, I took care of him in the hospital for two days. Liu Yu took a sip of water and moistened his throat.

"Later, Xiao Lisheng's grandfather fell ill and there was no one to take care of him at home, so he hired me as a nanny. I had a long-term relationship with Xiao Lisheng on his birthday, and I made a private lifelong agreement, and then I became pregnant with a big man, and Xiao Lisheng wanted to marry me after he knew it, but everyone in the Xiao family was resolutely against it, because they disliked my birth, especially the fact that I had done a foot washing girl, which made them feel ashamed. In particular, Xiao Lisheng's mother forced me to have an abortion. ”

"In order to protect the child, I left the Xiao family, I thought that Xiao Lisheng would come to me, but I didn't expect him to be engaged to someone else two months later. At that time, my heart was like ashes, and I took the big boy down alone. I once went to Xiao's house, and Mr. Xiao kicked me out, saying that no matter what, he would not recognize the child born to me, a foot-washing girl. Liu Yu's heart was as distressed as a knife, and tears kept flowing down.

"I can't be angry, why do they look down on me? Why do they think that the child I gave birth to is not good? I want to prove to them that my son is the best, so I have been urging the eldest man to study hard, but fortunately, the eldest man has become a doctor. My son is so good, even if they want to admit it from the Xiao family, I don't agree. Liu Yu shouted loudly, as if venting his inner dissatisfaction and grievances.

"Mom, you've suffered all these years. Liu Danan felt very sorry for his mother.

"Son, for your sake, it's worth it for mom to suffer. Liu Yu gently stroked Liu Danan's cheek.
