Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Past Seems to Be Nothing
The atmosphere at the dinner table was not serious, Mr. Hua and Shi Xiaonian's mother and son ate at the same table, for his grandson, Mr. Hua had a smile on his face, and he put vegetables in Jian Xiaoyang's bowl from time to time.
Looking at the big chicken thighs, sweet and sour pork ribs and shredded sweet potatoes in the bowl, these are all things that Jian Xiaoyang likes to eat. Jian Xiaoyang followed Mr. Hua's appearance and put vegetables into Mr. Hua's bowl.
Shi Xiaonian looked at Jian Xiaoyang's clumsy and cautious movements, and she couldn't help but be a little amused. This is a sincere heart of the little one, and she did not help him.
Mr. Hua was not in a hurry, he held the bowl and looked at Jian Xiaoyang with a smile, the wrinkles on his face stretched out, as if he was enjoying his grandson's filial piety.
This meal was so enjoyable that Shi Xiaonian never thought that when she first came, Mr. Hua's way of "asking" her and Jian Xiaoyang was too special, and she didn't dare to agree.
But none of that matter anymore, anyway, everything is fine now, nothing else matters.
They were eating when suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door.
Mr. Hua's brows frowned without a trace, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said lightly to the housekeeper, "What happened?"
"Master, it's my uncle. The butler who was standing outside the door came in and said. When Shi Xiaonian heard "uncle", he couldn't help muttering in his heart.
Could it be that Jian Hao is here?
"Let him in. Mr. Hua waved his hand and motioned to the butler not to sweep away the elegance of his meal.
"Yes. The housekeeper bent over and was about to leave, but was stopped by Mr. Hua.
"Ask someone to add more dishes and chopsticks. ”
"Yes. ”
The housekeeper had just left, and after a while, Jian Hao really walked in from the gate.
As soon as Jian Hao entered the door, he seemed to be relieved to see that Shi Xiaonian on the dinner table was safe and sound.
He paused, then turned his gaze to Mr. Hua on the throne, and his tone was with a hint of respect: "Father-in-law." ”
"Sit down. Mr. Hua casually pointed to his seat.
Jian Hao obeyed, and Mr. Hua sat down on the other side.
The maid saw Jian Hao sit down, and immediately put the dishes and chopsticks in front of Jian Hao.
"You are a busy man, why do you have time to come and see me today, an old man?" Mr. Hua had a joke in his eyes, he let go of the dishes and chopsticks, picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth.
"Father-in-law, I'm ......" Jian Hao's face was straight, and facing Mr. Hua, he looked like a junior.
"Forget it, just kidding, don't be nervous. Mr. Hua said, and he got up from his seat.
"Come with me. Mr. Hua turned around and walked towards the side door, Jian Hao did not hesitate, and he got up.
Shi Xiaonian and Jian Hao glanced at each other, Jian Hao handed her a reassuring look, and he followed behind Mr. Hua.
Jian Hao left, Shi Xiaonian retracted his gaze, Jian Xiaoyang thought she was worried about Jian Hao, he pulled Shi Xiaonian's sleeve, and whispered: "Mom, don't worry, grandpa is very good." ”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him puzzled.
"Dad is my grandfather's most optimistic person, he often tells me that I have a shrewd and capable father, and a gentle mother, but my mother is blessed ......" Speaking of this, Jian Xiaoyang realized that he had said something more, and his little face was full of distress.
He raised his head, looked at Shi Xiaonian, and asked sullenly, "Mom, I have a question, can I ask you?"
"You ask. Shi Xiaonian smiled and touched his head.
"Mom, I want to ask you, why do I have two mothers?" Jian Xiaoyang seemed to muster up great courage, and he looked at Shi Xiaonian fixedly.
Shi Xiaonian was stunned, she didn't expect Jian Xiaoyang to ask her such a question, because she couldn't answer this question now, and she didn't understand why.
And everything needs to be told by others, for example, Jian Hao is a good candidate......
Speaking from the heart, Shi Xiaonian was not sure if Jian Hao would tell her the truth. But she must know this truth, otherwise she can't explain it to herself, let alone Jian Xiaoyang.
Mr. Hua and Jian Hao stayed in the room for almost half an hour, and when they came out again, it was Jian Hao alone.
Shi Xiaonian watched Jian Hao walk from the flower path and the remnants of the leaves, she opened her mouth, and just wanted to ask Jian Hao the question that was bothering her. Jian Hao said to her, "If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later." ”
As he spoke, he was about to lead Shi Xiaonian home. As soon as he reached the gate, the butler suddenly hurried out.
"Uncle, wait. The housekeeper shouted to Jian Hao, Jian Hao stopped walking, he turned around, and looked at the housekeeper puzzled.
"Fu Bo, is there something wrong?" Jian Hao motioned for Shi Xiao Nian and Jian Xiaoyang to get into the car first, while he stood outside the car and talked to Fu Bo.
After a while, Fu Bo entered the house, Jian Hao got into the car, and suddenly there was a small square sandalwood box in his hand.
"For you. Jian Hao handed the square box to Shi Xiaonian, Shi Xiaonian looked at the square box, she didn't take it immediately.
"Who gave it?" Shi Xiaonian asked softly.
"Father-in-law. Jian Hao replied lightly, he handed the square box into Shi Xiaonian's hand, and then started the car.
Shi Xiaonian put the box in her hand, and she hesitated for a while before opening the box.
The moment she opened it, she saw a string of jade beads inside the box.
Jewelled.
This idiom suddenly floated in Shi Xiaonian's mind, which may be the best interpretation.
There were too many doubts in her heart, but Shi Xiaonian suppressed them, she knew that she shouldn't ask now.
When she returned home, she asked Jian Xiaoyang to take a bath and sleep, and she asked Jian Hao to go back to the bedroom with her.
in the room.
She put aside the box containing the jade beads and sat on the edge of the bed by herself, while Jian Hao sat on the chair and waited for Xiao Nian's next words.
"What's going on with this jade bead, and your father-in-law, aren't you going to tell me about these?" Shi Xiaonian's tone didn't have much waves, and she didn't need to be aggressive, she believed that Jian Hao wouldn't hide it from her.
Hearing her ask, Jian Hao smiled bitterly: "This jade bead used to be Xiaohui's favorite, since she married me, this bead has been placed in my father-in-law's place, he is now giving you this bead, can't you guess what he meant?"
Shi Xiaonian was silent for a moment, and then asked, "After the matter of the jade beads is over, what about Xiaohui? You didn't tell me that you were married before." ”
When Jian Hao heard this, he raised his eyebrows, Shi Xiaonian said before, did she remember anything?
He didn't get suspicious, he didn't answer immediately, he got up, walked to the window, and looked at the endless night sky in the sky, as if remembering, and seemed to be recalling: "Xiaohui and I didn't have a wedding, we got married on a trip, and we went to the Aegean Sea together to ...... back then."
Jian Hao talked about her love history, although Shi Xiaonian was inevitably jealous in her heart, she still listened to him quietly.
And Jian Hao said and spoke, but he revealed an amazing secret.
After Hua Xiaohui married Jian Hao, she never got pregnant for two years, and after being examined by the hospital, she learned that it was her own body problem.
Although she didn't say it on the surface, she desperately longed to have a child between herself and Jian Hao, but due to physical problems, she did not have the ability to have children.
She didn't tell Jian Hao about these things, but told Jian Hao's aunt, Jian Jie, about her hardships in detail. Jian Jie understood Hua Xiaohui's mood and tried her best to help her find a way.
Later, after further examination, it was found that Hua Xiaohui did not have the ability to have children, and the root cause was that her body was too weak, she did not ovulate, and there was a problem with her ovaries.
With the development of science and technology, artificial insemination technology has been very mature, but the problem is still severe, because Hua Xiaohui's body cannot produce egg cells at all, and in vitro fertilization cannot be done.
Later, Hua Xiaohui and Jian Jie came up with a plan, which was to find someone to buy eggs...... And Fang Xiong found Shi Xiaonian through this series of incidents, and it was by mistake that he caused today's result.
Shi Xiaonian listened to Jian Hao's words, she raised her eyes and looked at Jian Hao: "Where is Xiaohui now?"
The atmosphere around him seemed to be stagnant for a moment, Jian Hao's face was sad, and his voice was choked.
"She's dead. ”
Shi Xiaonian's heart was shocked, although she had expected such a result a long time ago, but when the words came out of Jian Hao's mouth, she still couldn't help but ask, "How could it be ......?"
"When I gave birth to Xiaoyang, I had a difficult birth. Jian Hao took a breath, he stood in front of the window and never said a word again.
Shi Xiaonian knew the truth, and the whole person did not relax because of this, but his mood became even heavier. At this time, her heart was like a ball of cotton, she couldn't go up and down, but it was uncomfortable, and sometimes it even made her heart ache and her breathing stagnant.
In front of her, Jian Hao had never mentioned the person "Xiaohui", if it wasn't for something like this happening today, would he plan to hide it from her for the rest of his life?
He doesn't seem to be a nostalgic person, but just listened to him trace the past between him and Xiaohui, bit by bit, bit by bit, clearly, as if he had just experienced it yesterday.
She thought she could not care about this, but when she heard it today, she sadly found that she actually cared very much.
She actually cared very much about whether there was still a woman named Xiaohui hidden in his heart. After all, they used to be husband and wife, and it can be seen from Xiaoyang's incident that that woman must be in love with Jian Hao deeply.
And Jian Hao, this is not the case.
If Jian Hao can't forget Xiaohui's words, then what about her, what is she?
A replacement for Xiaohui?
Because Jian Hao and Xiaohui got married in a traveling style, almost no one in the circle knew about Jian Hao's marriage, otherwise they would not have fallen in love with him so unscrupulously in the first place.
When you fall in love with someone, you have to be wholehearted, and if you treat him like this, she naturally hopes that Jian Hao will treat her like this.
Although selfish, after all, if it weren't for Xiaohui, she and Jian Hao wouldn't necessarily have known each other in this life.
But who is not selfish in love?
Shi Xiaonian thought, if she was given another chance to choose, what would she choose?
The answer sounded a little ridiculous, because she didn't know if it would or wouldn't.
