"What do you say?" Jiang Yichen took the cup and took a sip, looking at Ling Han puzzled.

"She knows that babies are my weakness. Ling Han looked at Jiang Yichen, "You tell her, I agreed." Just taking advantage of this opportunity, the two of us went on a trip. ”

"You're not kidding, are you?"

"Do you think I'm joking?"

Jiang Yichen stared at Ling Han's eyes, trying to see a hint in her eyes. Ling Han's eyes were clear, and he didn't see any emotion at all.

"You...... Baby?"

"Don't worry! At most, in half a month, your mother will take the initiative to send the baby back. Ling Han smiled softly, with a look of certainty on his face.

Jiang Yichen will be skeptical.

"It's only half a month, are you reluctant?" Seeing this, Ling Han couldn't help but poke Jiang Yichen's head, "What a daughter slave!"

"Of course I can't bear it! The baby is so small, and she has never left us. Jiang Yichen muttered quietly, "What if...... My mom won't send her back?"

"Then you can go back to your hometown with them~" Ling Han pouted, "I'll go out on a trip by myself, take a wedding photo by the way, and end up idle!"

"Are you really?" Jiang Yichen couldn't sit still, he got up from the sofa and looked down at Ling Han condescendingly, "I thought you were just joking...... Anyway, I don't agree. ”

"Then you'd rather see your mother make things difficult for me everywhere?" Ling Han glared at him with squinted eyes, "Yes, you don't care about my feelings." You're the family!"

"You're secretly exchanging thoughts. ”

Ling Han slapped her thigh and stood up, although she was much shorter than Jiang Yichen, she couldn't lose in momentum.

"What kind of person your mother is, I think you know better than me! If I don't go along with her wishes this time and return to my hometown, she may say something about me in front of others! Just say me, and even scold my parents together. Have you thought about this? If you say 'disagree,' she will only settle the account on my head and sprinkle her anger on me! You are her son, even if she is angry, she will not do anything to you. I'm different...... I'm an outsider! Don't deny it! At least...... In her mind, I was an outsider at all. ”

Hearing Ling Han's words, Jiang Yichen silently closed his mouth - he had nothing to say - because everything Ling Han said was the truth, and he had no way to refute it. He knew better than anyone what kind of person his mother was.

He knew everything, but he still wanted to struggle.

"I'm going to talk to her! I'm not going to let her take the baby, and I'm not going to let her slander you anymore. Jiang Yichen said and was about to leave. was stopped by Ling Han.

"What are you talking to her about?" Ling Han shook his head, "It's useless! Even if she comes forward, she will only think that I am provoking you behind your back and provoking the relationship between you." You're only going to make my relationship with her more and more stiff. ”

Jiang Yichen was stunned suddenly-Ling Han completely guessed what Old Lady Jiang was thinking.

"That'...... I'm going to talk to my dad. Jiang Yichen was still unwilling.

"Your father?" Ling Han frowned, "His health is not good, you better not disturb his old man...... What's more, he can't be the master. ”

Compared with Mrs. Jiang, Ling Han's impression of Old Man Jiang is not bad. First, Old Man Jiang has always been polite to her and her family, and has never said anything excessive. Second, the reason why Old Man Jiang is sick is somewhat due to her, and it is inevitable that there will be feelings of guilt mixed with it.

"Yes...... Are you really going to let them take the baby away?" Jiang Yichen sighed, suddenly feeling that he was very useless, even if he was in the mall, when he got home, he was still the angry bag caught in the middle, and he was in a dilemma.

"It's decided, you should call your mother quickly!" Ling Han raised his hand to look at the time, "The baby should wake up, I'll go make food for her." ”

During the Spring Festival, Ling Han gave the nanny and aunt a long vacation. Fortunately, Tong Tong is getting older, and she is still as well-behaved as ever, and she can cope with it alone.

Jiang Yichen took out his mobile phone and flipped out Mrs. Jiang's number, but he hesitated and didn't dial. He didn't understand why his mother was doing this, why she insisted on targeting Ling Han. It's been so long, Tong Tong is already a year old, and she still can't accept Ling Han.

Just as he was hesitating, Mrs. Jiang's phone called.

"Oh...... Mother. ”

"Help us book a ticket another day. Old Lady Jiang's voice came, "How did you think about that?"

The "......" replied to her with a moment of silence.

"Ling Han doesn't agree, isn't it!" Old Lady Jiang's voice suddenly raised an octave, "I know......!

"She agreed!" Jiang Yichen didn't want to listen to Old Lady Jiang count Ling Han and Ling Han's family anymore, so he quickly interrupted her, "The one who disagrees is me! Don't blame her for all the problems, compared to her, you are the one who is unreasonable." ”

"You're ......!"

"Are you sure you want to take Tong Tong back to his hometown?" Jiang Yichen ignored Old Lady Jiang's anger and asked lightly.

"I'm my own granddaughter, and I can't be the master anymore?"

"Can you take care of her?" Jiang Yichen asked again.

The old lady Jiang on the other end of the phone couldn't help laughing: "Son! I pulled you so big, is there anything I haven't done enough? I haven't taken good care of you? You have what others have, and you still have what others don't! Tong Tong is your child, my own granddaughter, is it possible that I will still treat her badly?"

"Naturally, you won't just take her. It's just ......" Jiang Yichen paused, "We'...... Ling Han and I are worried that your body will not be able to bear it. The baby is one year old, and it takes some physical strength to take care of her. Won't you have too much work?"

"Ho ho!" Old Lady Jiang knew her son no matter how she didn't know, Jiang Yichen's words were full of politeness, all for Ling Han, "When did you learn to be so oily and smooth? These words don't seem to come out of your mouth, my son." Did that stinky girl from Ling Han teach you that?"

"It's not. Jiang Yichen raised his eyes and looked not far away, hugging Tong Tongzheng

Ling Han, who walked towards him, immediately lowered his voice, "You and your father are getting older, and it is inevitable that I will be worried. ”

"Okay!" Old Lady Jiang interrupted Jiang Yichen, "Since Ling Han agreed, when you go to book tickets another day, you can send the baby over by the way." I look at the baby as if he has lost weight, where do you young people know how to take care of children. I told you, don't wean your child too early, you don't listen! You drank until you were two years old when you were a child, you see how strong your body is now! Girls nowadays only care about their good ...... figure."

"Got it, Mom!" If you go further, it is estimated that you will have to start counting Ling Han again, Jiang Yichen thought so, and hurriedly opened his mouth to take over Mrs. Jiang's words, "Catch up with Ming'er...... I'll send you the baby. I'm afraid I'm going to have to work hard for you for a while, I know that you feel sorry for me and Ling Han!"

"I'm distressed baby!"

"Yes! I know. ”

……

Hanging up the phone, Jiang Yichen raised his eyes and found that Ling Han was staring. Himself, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.

was stared at by her and her face was feverish, Jiang Yichen had no choice but to step forward and take Tong Tong from her arms.

"What are you laughing at?"

"If you think it's funny, laugh!" Ling Han shrugged, "What? you want to see me cry?"

"You know I didn't mean that. Jiang Yichen shook his head gently, "That's it! A woman's mind, it's best not to guess." ”

"Look, you like to guess women's minds, don't you?"

"Stop there. ”

"Cut ......" Ling Han pursed his lips, and then, changing into a serious demeanor, looked at Jiang Yichen's eyes, "Hey, you family...... Have you always gotten along like that?"

"What is it?" Jiang Yichen was a little puzzled.

"It's just ......," Ling Han pondered for a few seconds, "I can't say it either! It's not like getting along with each other, it's like ...... I don't know how to describe it. The words are also polite, giving a sense of distance. ”

"Is there one?"

"I want to ...... I now finally understand why your temperament is so bland, even a little cold. Ling Han pursed his lips, "Personality is partly the reason, and on the other hand, it is the influence from the family!"

Jiang Yichen looked at Ling Han with a puzzled expression.

"Growing up in a family like that, no one can be a warm person. Ling Han sighed, and then touched Tong Tong's little face, "Baby, when you grow up, don't be as annoying as your father~"

Jiang Yichen looked down at Ling Han, and after a long time, he saw her smile knowingly-only when facing Tong Tong would she be so gentle. The word popped into his head - "the brilliance of motherhood".

Ling Han as a "mother" and Ling Han as a "wife" are two completely different people.

"Ling Han. Jiang Yichen held Tong Tong with one hand, and stretched out one hand, wanting to touch Ling Han's head, but after hesitating for a long time, he still put it on her shoulder.

"Huh?" Ling Han looked up at him.

"You ......" Jiang Yichenyi

Word by word, as if it was a little difficult, "Really...... Until now...... Still is...... Very...... Do you hate me?"

Ling Han's breathing paused for a few seconds, then he took a deep breath and bit his lip.

"Is it okay not to talk about feelings between us?" her voice was very soft and her expression was very calm, "Isn't it good to live in peace? Why bother with so many unnecessary problems? Do I hate you, is it that important? You are Tong Tong's father, I am Tong Tong's mother, that's all." ”

"Dad...... Father. Hearing Ling Han's words, Tong Tong, who was lying on Jiang Yichen's shoulder, suddenly smiled and patted his mouth, and let out a "giggle" laugh, "Mom...... Mother...... Mommy ......"

Tong Tong's pronunciation became clearer and clearer, and occasionally he would make sounds such as "grandma" and "grandpa", and even learn to "meow" the flower cat downstairs.

"That's all...... In stark contrast to Tong Tong's happiness, Jiang Yichen's loss was Jiang Yichen's loss, and he opened his mouth, "Between us, don't you have any feelings?"

"It's better not to. Ling Han's answer was ambiguous, "Feelings are the most useless and confusing thing in the world. Whether it is love or family affection, in the end it will only become our shackles, pushing us to the unknown. Family affection cannot be discarded, as for love......"

She smiled bitterly, "Is there such an ethereal thing as love in this world? At least, I haven't seen it." ”

Neither of them spoke again, and only the voice of Tong Tong "babbling" and calling "Mom and Dad" could be heard in the room.

The next day, according to the agreement, Jiang Yichen really sent Tong Tong to his parents' house. Then he began to pack his luggage, planning to travel abroad with Ling Han.

It's just that after being separated from Tong Tong all morning, Ling Han felt a little uneasy, and always felt empty in his heart. Occasionally, auditory hallucinations can be heard – the sound of laughter, crying, and calling her "Mommy" can be heard.

Jiang Yichen's reaction was not much different from hers. When he saw Tong Tong's bottle, he also had to be sad for a while.

Sure enough, even if you experience this kind of thing "separation" thousands of times, you still can't learn to face it calmly.
