Chapter 61: The autumn clouds do not disperse, and the frost flies late

"Mom's mental condition is unstable...... Sometimes I don't feel very conscious......" Jin Junchi touched my cheek, "So, if mom can't figure out who you are for a while, don't blame her, and don't act too surprised." ”

"Oh, good. I nodded, "Is it because of this that Mom ...... Do you want to live here forever?" The Jin family's foundation is in Jincheng, but Jin Junchi and his father have stayed in France all the year round, so they must not be able to leave.

"Yes, my mother lived in this house until she was 16 years old, and this is the safest and most familiar place she feels, which is good for her condition. Jin Junchi kissed my forehead, "Why are you so smart?"

"Born to be good. I shrugged, "Is there anything taboo then, I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing." "In general, mental illness should avoid some stimuli, otherwise it is easy to get sick.

"No......" Jin Junchi suddenly hugged me into his arms very hard, "About 20 years ago, my mother went to a charity dinner in Jincheng with her friends, and was kidnapped by kidnappers on the way. Although she was eventually rescued, Aunt Yun's daughter was lost in that chaotic incident...... In short, this incident was a great stimulus to my mother, who was in a bad mental state for a time, but now she is much better. However, I still sometimes mess up time, and I feel that it is a day more than ten years or even decades ago......"

"Actually, it's good to live in her own world for a while, at least at that time, she is happy. I stretched out my hand and gently patted Jin Junchi's back.

"Hmm......" Jin Jun snorted sullenly. We embraced each other quietly, I don't know how long, and then I fell asleep.

When I woke up, the sky had completely darkened, and Jin Jun's face was a little difficult to see in the shadows. I only moved once, and then he opened his eyes and grabbed his hair: "I actually fell asleep too." ”

"After sitting on a plane for so long, I must be tired. I rubbed my eyes and got out of bed, and when I saw the snacks on the coffee table, I felt hungry, so I took a blueberry muffin and sat down to eat it slowly.

"Eat less dim sum and eat well for a while. "I really don't understand why Jin Junchi thinks that dim sum is not nutritious, it is obviously made with flour, milk, eggs and the like. Is it true that these things are nutritious when eaten separately, and they are not nutritious when mixed together to make snacks, what is the reason?

I ate two muffins before I followed Jin Junchi downstairs with satisfaction, and at this time the lights in the living room were on, and the warm golden light was like thick honey, making the whole space look very comfortable. I stood on the last step of the stairs and watched the heartwarming scene in front of the floor-to-ceiling windowsβ€”

A handsome middle-aged man sits upright on a high-backed chair, opposite him stands a solid wood easel, in front of which is a woman holding a paintbrush in one hand and a palette in the other. A handkerchief loosened her long, seaweed-like hair, and the shredded hair on her sideburns scattered haphazardly, making her delicate facial contours appear more feminine.

The people who were serious about painting didn't notice that we were coming downstairs, but the people who were models obviously did. He smiled at the man who looked at him for a moment, at the drawing board. The painter was dissatisfied with the model's unauthorized change of expression: "You didn't want to laugh at first, don't laugh now! When you move, the lines and proportions are wrong......

"Ningning, we need to stop for a moment. The man was complained but not angry at all, and his tone was still so gentle that it could drip water.

"Oh......" The woman pouted a little dissatisfied, turned her head to see the night outside the window and seemed taken aback, "Oh my God, why is it so late...... I'm sorry...... Sitting in a position that keeps you in a position for too long...... I didn't notice the time...... What a ......."

"It's okay for me, I just want to tell you that Xiao Chi is back......" The man gestured with his eyes in our direction.

The woman immediately turned her head to us, and her beautiful eyes shone brightly as she fixed her gaze. There is no doubt that Jin Junchi's eyes are very similar to his mother. When the two of them are happy, their eyes are equally scorching, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it. Jin Junchi's mother put down the painting tools in her hand, and by the way, took off the smock she was wearing when she was painting and threw it next to the easel, revealing the dark green silk dress that was ankle-length.

She walked towards us with a small but quick step, and in the blink of an eye she came to us. She opened her arms, I thought she was going to give Jin Junchi a big hug, but I didn't expect her to directly cross Jin Junchi and hug me with a full embrace, her excited tone was like a cheerful bird in the forest: "Xiaowan, why don't you tell me in advance." She sighed in annoyance, "I don't even have time to prepare your favorite snacks...... The chestnut cake is definitely too late, and if you prepare it now, you should be able to eat the blueberry muffin after dinner...... Oh......" She let go of me, but held my hand tightly, "Chen, what are you preparing for dinner?" I want to make a few dishes that Xiao Wan likes, I'll make osmanthus sweet and sour fish, Xiao Wan likes to eat this the most. ”

I don't know if Jin Junchi's mother is sober nowβ€”my name is right, and it's not wrong that I like chestnut cake and blueberry muffins, but what the hell is osmanthus sweet and sour fish? I haven't eaten it, how can I like it? The most suspicious thing is that it is obvious that her enthusiasm for me is not 'polite', but the kind of deep emotion that will only be precipitated for many years.

"Mom, I'm Xiao Chi, you ......" From Jin Junchi's reaction, I can almost guess that his mother should not be awake now, otherwise there is absolutely no need for Jin Junchi to tell her who he is.

"Xiao Chi ......" Jin Junchi's mother was obviously stunned, look at me and then look at Jin Junchi, the expression on her face was very confused.

"Ning Ning, don't you want to burn fish?" Jin Junchi's father walked over and gently stopped his wife's shoulder.

"Oh, yes!" she smiled at me, smiling at me, as her mind seemed to finally recover from her stutter, "I'll do it, right away." ”

"Oh, good. "I really don't know what to say.

Jin Junchi's mother walked into the kitchen with brisk steps, his father nodded at me, it is not difficult to see that Jin Junchi's turbulent aura comes from him, and his turbulence has become deeper and heavier after the tempering of time, but at this time his expression is very gentle: "Condense her...... You don't mind ......."

"It's okay, mom she...... Looks like he likes me. I smiled at him.

"Well, you...... looks very similar to her good friend, if it weren't for the wrong age, I would have confessed to the wrong ......" Jin Junchi's father explained a few words, and then asked, "I remember Xiao Chi told me that you are twenty years old?"

"Well, it's going to be my twenty-first birthday next week. I replied.

"Oh......" he nodded, "and I'll help you celebrate when the time comes." ”

"Xiaowan, do you want custard pudding with caramel sauce or strawberry jam?" Jin Junchi's mother shook the two jars in her hand at me.

"That...... Bar with caramel sauce...... "I walked over to her and saw a cook busy in the kitchen.

"Okay, I like caramel sauce too. She handed the chef one of the bottles of sauce, then returned to the counter, tested the temperature of the oil, and put the floured fish into the pan, and the flesh slowly swelled and colored. She poured hot oil on the fish with a spoon and said, "I found a particularly beautiful cornflower by the brook in the forest in the afternoon, and I will take you to see it tomorrow, and you will love it." ”

"Good. I nodded. Actually, I'm quite glad that Jin Junchi's mother recognized me as her good friend, what if it happened that I looked like someone she hated?

"We could go in the morning, take a picnic basket and stay in the forest at noon. She continued to plan her trip for tomorrow. I did want to visit the Forest of Fontainebleau, so I had no objection, but I was worried that she would wake up tomorrow and suddenly not remember what she had said today.

"What are you talking about?" Jin Junchi's father walked in.

"Chen, I told Xiaowan that I would go to the forest for a picnic tomorrow. She looked at him with a look of trust and dependence, "Can you still find the cornflower we saw that afternoon? ”

"Don't worry, I'll go with you tomorrow. "Jin Junchi's father is completely a good gentleman who loves his wife.

"That's good...... You help me get the osmanthus syrup. Jin Junchi's mother took out the fried fish and put it on a plate. Jin Junchi's father had already found the osmanthus syrup and opened the lid......

The two of them stood in front of the small cooking table, cooperating very tacitly, harmonious as if they were one person. At first, I thought that Jin Junchi said that his mother was mentally unstable, and I was worried that it was that crazy and stupid look. But it's not like that, she just forgot the scars left by the years, like a simple little girl who doesn't know the world. Because she was protected and well cared for.

"What are you doing standing at the door?" Jin Junchi followed my gaze and looked at my parents who were cooking.

"Dad is a good gentleman. I said quietly, "If I don't remember the past, I can be guarded by someone who never leaves me." No matter what you lose, you won't be afraid. ”

"Isn't that person right in front of you?" Jin Junchi raised his eyebrows at me on the ground, "Whether it is genetic inheritance or acquired by word and deed, it is absolutely not wrong." ”

"You?" I looked at Jin Junchi seriously, "It really doesn't look very reliable......

"How dare you not believe me!" Jin Junchi knocked on my head.

"It hurts!" I raised my head and glared at Jin Junchi.

Jin Junchi's mother happened to come over with the boiled fish, and immediately frowned and said to Jin Junchi, "How can you hit Xiaowan's head......!" I suspect that Jin Junchi has a fake mother.

I immediately nodded, "yes, it's too much, it really hurts......"
