Chapter 15: The Swing Rack
In the evening of the countryside, there is a rare tranquility and comfort in the city, it is the turn of summer and autumn, the cinnamon has bloomed, the air is condensed with sweet fragrance, walking in the meantime, can always make people inexplicably let go of their troubles, it seems that this is the true taste of life.
Holding a bouquet of wildflowers picked on the side of the road, Qianyi walked along a grassy path through the laurel trees on both sides to a two-story villa not far away.
As soon as she was discharged from the hospital yesterday, Qianyi was summoned to the police station, and Xu Disheng was a little heartfelt, although she went abroad, she still sent a lawyer surnamed Zhao to go to the police station with her for investigation.
In fact, the so-called investigation is just that Qianyi re-answered the questions that the police had asked before, and there was no progress, Qianyi still insisted that she did not deliberately push, and this time, probably because of the presence of a lawyer, the police did not bite her to death like last time, however, Qianyi was still notified to be released on bail pending trial and restricted from leaving the country.
Before leaving, Qianyi couldn't help but ask the policeman who went back to the hospital to interrogate her, had he seen the video on Qianxue's hand, since he didn't do it himself, Qianyi felt that he could definitely find clues from the video.
The police replied in a surprising way, saying that Qianxue admitted that he had indeed recorded the scene of the incident, but later accidentally erased the video due to a mistake.
This time made Qianyi incomprehensible, with Qianxue's attitude of wanting to put her to death, since she believed that the video was her own incriminating evidence, how could she be willing to erase it easily? Of course, the police were also a little puzzled, and they didn't understand why she didn't take the initiative to say that she had the video in her hand when she asked Qianxue on the day of the incident.
In line with the idea of self-purification, Qianyi calmed down, at least he didn't do anything that was sorry for his conscience.
Outside the gate of the police station, Zhang's mother and the driver were waiting for Qianyi, ready to send her back to the apartment to recuperate.
It's just that when she was about to get on the bus, Qianyi suddenly changed her mind, turned around and asked Lawyer Zhao, who was standing behind her: "Excuse me, I am restricted from leaving the country, am I also restricted from leaving City A?"
"Miss Qian, please," Lawyer Zhao held his glasses with his hand: "Anywhere in the country, you are free." ”
Qianyi's eyes lit up, and she turned to Zhang's mother and said, "Zhang's mother, I won't go back to the apartment, this place is too boring, I want to go to the countryside to live for a few days." ”
So there is this scene at this moment, Qianyi standing outside Grandma Xu's country house.
"Grandma!" Through the iron fence, Qianyi found that in the courtyard of the villa, the flowers she planted with Grandma Xu had begun to bloom in twos and threes, full of vitality.
The log swing frame at the east end of the yard is swaying slightly with the wind, which is after knowing Qianyi, Grandma Xu specially asked people to install it, just because Qianyi once said that her dream when she was a child was that there was a yard at home, which could hold a swing frame, and when she was unhappy, she could swing on it and be happy.
"It's Qianyi girl here!" The door of the villa opened, and an old voice came.
Qianyi smiled, she really hadn't laughed like this in a long time, just because she saw her relatives again.
"Grandma, I miss you so much!" Chii couldn't wait to open the fence gate, almost rushing over, and then hugged the old man who was walking towards her.
Grandma Xu didn't seem to be much surprised by her arrival, she only hugged Qianyi gently in her arms and said softly: "Good boy, grandma misses you too!"
After a long time, Qianyi let go of Grandma Xu, wiped the tears that flowed out of the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and held the wild flowers in her hand in front of her: "For you, is this flower beautiful?"
Grandma Xu smiled and took the wildflowers: "It's beautiful, grandma likes it very much!"
On the sofa in the living room, Qian Yi rested her head on Grandma Xu's lap, already falling asleep.
The maid Wu's mother wanted to come forward to wake up Qianyi, and was about to let her go back to the house to sleep, but was stopped by Grandma Xu with her eyes, so Wu's mother had to bring a thin blanket, gently cover Qianyi's body, and then retreat by herself.
The room was very quiet, only a thin snort could be heard, probably Qian Yi hadn't slept so peacefully for a long time, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised on his tear-stained face.
Grandma Xu wanted to wipe away her tears, but her hand was halfway raised, but she put it down gently, and then sighed deeply.
Grandma Xu suddenly couldn't hold her mind, she so simply and rudely brought Xu Disheng and Qianyi together, for these two children, especially for Qianyi, is it a fulfillment or another kind of harm?
That day, she was walking on the path outside the villa and happened to meet Qianyi who was picking wildflowers, and for a moment, Grandma Xu was almost shocked by the sadness in the girl's eyes that could not be concealed, even though Qianyi was smiling softly at herself at that time.
Grandma Xu, who has been bumpy for most of her life, pulled Xu Disheng alone after her son and daughter-in-law passed away one after another, and the hardships can be imagined.
Grandma Xu couldn't understand what kind of pain would make a girl who should have enjoyed the joy of youth so withered, and the results of her investigation were really staggering, Qianbai, who was known for her kindness and good speech in the shopping mall, would put her hatred for her ex-wife on her own daughter, and even stood by and watched her current wife beat Qianyi.
However, now it seems that Grandma Xu's well-intentioned arrangement did not achieve her original intention, because when Qianyi appeared in front of her again, the sadness in her eyes still lingered, which should not be the expression that a newlywed woman should have.
Grandma Xu couldn't understand that her grandson Xu Disheng, who was raised by herself, was recognized by everyone as wise and quick-witted, upright, and resolute, and took over the business in his early twenties, and in just a few years, he took the Xu family's career to the next level.
"Grandma......" Chii muttered, as if to wake up.
"Let's sleep a little longer!" Grandma Xu persuaded softly, and Qianyi let out a soft "um", turned around, and fell asleep again.
Everything that happened in City A in the past few days, Qianyi's grievances and Xu Disheng's bad behavior, Grandma Xu knows it clearly, there was a time, Grandma Xu was ready to leave for City A, how kind Qianyi was, Grandma Xu had already seen it in her eyes, she didn't believe that Qianyi would harm anyone, since this child entered the Xu family, she must be a grandmother to make decisions for her.
However, a phone call from Zhang's mother later made Grandma Xu hesitate.
Zhang's mother told her that on the first night of hospitalization, Qianyi was very emotional, crying and screaming, and finally fainted, and the doctor examined her, and the result was that Qianyi already had a tendency to be mildly depressed.
As a result, Grandma Xu finally gave up the idea of revealing her identity to Qianyi, just because she was worried that Qianyi, who knew the truth, would blame her as a grandmother, and should not arbitrarily push her to Xu Disheng, but instead put her in another unbearable situation.
In the morning, Zhang's mother called to inform Grandma Xu that Qianyi had left for the countryside, and Grandma Xu had been looking forward to seeing Qianyi, but after seeing her, all Grandma Xu could do was to patiently listen to Qianyi tell her unhappy marriage, and finally understood how bad Xu Disheng behaved to his wife.
Mother Wu ran into the house at this time, pointed to the phone in her hand, and made a gesture: "It's the young master." ”
Grandma Xu frowned, signaled that she didn't want to answer the phone, and waved her hand to tell Mother Wu to hang up, don't make noise about Qianyi, who is still sleeping.
Wu's mother had no choice but to retreat to the corridor outside the house, hesitated for a moment, and still connected the phone.
"Grandma, I'm Di Sheng. On the other side was Xu Disheng's voice.
"Uh...... Young master," Mama Wu looked at the door of the living room and explained with a smile: "The old lady is not convenient to answer the phone now, why don't you call later?"
On the other end of the phone, Xu Disheng rubbed his eyebrows.
In the past two days, he was talking about an important project in the UK, and he was busy from day to night, and he almost fell down tired.
However, grandma's serial life-threatening call didn't mean to let him go at all, and when he thought of something, his grandmother called over, in fact, to inquire about Qianyi's condition, or to ask him how the case of deliberately hurting people was handled, Xu Disheng was tired of coping, but he could only deal with it carefully, and vaguely said that he would deal with it when he returned to China.
It's just that today, Xu Disheng finally had a day of leisure, and he was ready to talk to his grandmother, wanting her to understand his difficulties, although he didn't have a little vision for this marriage, but he would definitely go through the half year with restraint, so please don't force him anymore.
Although Xu Disheng felt that he had thought very thoughtfully, he didn't expect that this whole day, he couldn't wait for the left and right, and couldn't wait for his grandmother's call, so Xu Disheng was a little panicked, although he and his grandmother had big differences on many things, but the relationship between their grandparents and grandchildren has always been very deep, and any slightest disturbance on the grandmother's side will hook Xu Disheng's nerves.
"My grandma is fine, right?" Xu Disheng was a little worried, grandma never missed his call, this situation had not happened before today, and Xu Disheng couldn't afford not to think about it.
Mother Wu laughed and comforted: "Young master, don't worry, it's the young lady who came over and has been talking to the old lady in the living room, and now the young lady is asleep in the old lady's arms, and the old lady feels sorry for her granddaughter-in-law, so she won't answer your call." ”
Xu Disheng snorted, from that time he was forced to go to the hospital to see Qianyi, he went abroad directly, and then he left this woman behind, neither called Zhang's mother nor called Qianyi's phone, of course, this is also because he didn't know Qianyi's phone number at all.
As for the so-called negotiation between the family at the same time, Xu Disheng has been perfunctory, he doesn't understand, why doesn't grandma be biased towards Qianyi with a little reason, the video taken by Qianxue is already very clear, it is this woman who made a mistake, so she naturally wants to take responsibility, if you have to suppress the Shi family in the name of the Xu family, it will affect the reputation of the Xu family.
