It was expected that the chatting between the adults would be over for a long time, so Lin Manshu and the four of them found a café to sit and chat. The atmosphere of the café is good, and the dim lighting creates a nighttime atmosphere.

The cappuccino was steaming on the table, and the dark brown coffee was covered with a layer of white steamy frothy milk, and the two colors blended together, like a church monk wrapped in a white turban over a dark brown tunic.

It is said that in the 16th century there was a famous church called the Church of St. Francis (Capuchin), the monks in the church wore brown robes and a pointed hat on their heads, when the Church of St. Franciscan came to Italy, the locals thought that the monks' clothing was very special, so they gave them the name Cappuccino, the Italian word refers to the loose robes and small pointed hats worn by monks, derived from the Italian "turban" that is, Cappuccino.

After that, people mixed espresso, milk and milk foam to make coffee, and found that it was similar in color to the dark brown robes worn by monks, so they had an idea to give milk and coffee and a drink with spiky milk foam, which was named Cappuccino.

This is also the origin of the name cappuccino, cappuccino is divided into dry and wet, wet cappuccino has less milk foam, more milk, the thick milky aroma covers the bitterness of the coffee, and the taste is slightly sweet.

Cappuccino is said to be a good coffee to drink when you are in love, probably because of its sweet taste. Isn't that what love is, although you also have to face the hardships of life, but the sweet taste of love can resist all bitterness.

Lin Manshu and the four of them each ordered a cappuccino, and compared to the couples at the other tables, the two couples sat together very conspicuously.

is still the position by the window, which is Lin Manshu's favorite, and others have also adapted to her habits.

Why do you like to sit by the window? Lin Manshu once said that she likes to sit by the window and observe the passing crowd, and she will have a special feeling.

Hearing this, Shen Lingshan said: "That special feeling is proof of your loneliness. Admit it, you're lonely when you're alone. ”

At that time, Lin Manshu still didn't admit it, she said: "I have never felt lonely. ”

Shen Lingshan smiled and said, "That's because you're used to being lonely." ”

Later, Lin Manshu thought about her words and felt that there was some truth. How can anyone not be afraid of loneliness? It's just that the situation forces me to adapt. People have to survive before they can do anything else.

On the table in the café, delicate potted plants are placed to purify the air and keep the surrounding environment from monotonous. Above the window, there are tassel ornaments, which is more emotional.

Lin Manshu elegantly picked up the coffee on the table and drank it, the white milk bubble was imprinted on the side of her mouth. Xiao Mubai smiled and picked up a tissue and helped her wipe her mouth clean.

Now that he has nothing to do, Xiao Hanyu finally found a chance to see the proof of family relationship given to him by Xiao Mubai.

"What is this?" Shen Lingshan leaned over and asked.

"Proof of family relationship. ”

Xiao Hanyu said that he had opened the paper, but when he saw the contents inside, he was stunned.

"Is this all?" asked Xiao Hanyu as he looked at him in surprise.

Xiao Mubai nodded and said that it was already all.

"How is it possible? Isn't the proof of family relationship at the time of birth supposed to state the parents? How can it not be written on it? Xiao Hanyu said.

Shen Lingshan leaned over and looked at it and said, "Yes." ”

"Could it be because my aunt is a single mother?" Lin Manshu guessed.

"No, even so, I will still ask my father's identity when I get a household registration. Xiao Mubai said.

The only explanation is that someone deliberately hid the identity of Xiaohanyu's father, and it is also suspicious to recall that her mother has not mentioned a word about her father over the years.

"Mu Bai, your parents know my mother, you can help me ask them to see if they know. Xiao Hanyu said.

"Okay, I'll ask you when you get back. Xiao Mubai agreed.

On the way back, Xiao Mubai asked about this in a roundabout way, and he first asked, "Mom, are you very familiar with Aunt Liu?"

"Of course, we used to be very good friends. Xiao's mother replied.

"Really, why didn't you contact you later?" Xiao Mubai continued to ask.

He asked while observing his mother's expression in the car mirror, and found that she looked fine, so he asked with confidence.

Later, she took her children to other cities, and her contact information was changed, so there was no contact. Xiao's mother replied.

Then she looked at Gu Mingsheng on the side and asked, "It should have been more than 20 years ago." ”

"Not really. The years are not forgiving, and everyone is getting old in a blink of an eye. Gu Mingsheng said.

Both of them are immersed in memories of the past at the same time.

"I heard that my aunt raised Han Yu alone, did she divorce Han Yu's father?" Xiao Mubai asked in a tentative tone.

"Really? I don't know. Xiao's mother replied vaguely.

"Then have you seen Han Yu's father? Isn't it said that Aunt Yu is a very good friend, you should have seen it. Xiao Mubai asked.

It was Gu Mingsheng who answered him, he said: "It was all so many years ago, who remembers." ”

"How could you not remember?" Xiao Mubai asked rhetorically.

Mother Xiao sighed and said in a sad tone: "Old and old, we are all old and useless." ”

Xiao Mubai is most afraid of his parents like this, and the old man seems to have forgotten many things because of his old age, so he cares about it very much. It means that it is not far from death.

"Mom, don't say that, I'm wrong, don't ask. Xiao Mubai hurriedly admitted his mistake.

After getting Xiao Mubai's promise, Ding Lan and Gu Mingsheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Are these children going to get involved in that incident in the end?

A text message was received on her dilapidated mobile phone, which read: The person has been moved to a safe location.

"Mom, I'm in. Xiao Hanyu knocked on Xiao Rong's door.

After hearing this, Xiao Rong looked panicked and stuffed the broken phone under the pillow and said, "Well, come in." ”

Xiao Hanyu walked in with a plate of fruits, and said with a smile: "Manshu asked me to bring you some fruits." ”

Xiao Rong smiled: "This kid, why is he so polite." ”

"That's because she likes you, that's why she cares so hard. Xiao Rong said.

"I wish she had put that heart into her parents. Xiao Rong said.

Xiao Hanyu smiled helplessly and said, "Who said it wasn't, it's just that she loves to drill the horns too much, I'm afraid it's not easy to change." ”

As he spoke, he put the fruit bowl on the table next to him and sat down on the edge of his mother's bed. In fact, he came over, not under the entrustment of Lin Manshu, but to test his mother's tone.

"How can a child have a worldly enmity with his parents. In the blink of an eye, her parents are not young anymore. Be there for her and persuade her more. Xiao Rong said softly.

"I will. Xiao Hanyu said.

Xiao Rong saw that Xiao Hanyu had not left, and saw that he seemed to have something to say, so she asked, "Do you have anything to say?"

Xiao Hanyu was just about to say what he wanted to say, but his eyes skimmed over the old mobile phone that Xiao Rong pressed under the pillow. Although the phone was only exposed a little, the keen Xiao Hanyu still saw it.

He felt that his mother seemed to have some secrets, he hadn't paid attention to it before, but he didn't think it before, but now he deliberately observed, and always felt that her behavior was suspicious.

So, Xiao Hanyu didn't say what was already on his lips, he smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll go first, you have a good rest." ”

With suspicion, Xiao Hanyu has been observing his mother's behavior for the past few days, but there is nothing abnormal. I can't help but feel that I am not overly worried.

This suspicion completely disappeared when the mother was ready to go home.

Before Liao Rong left, she talked to Lin Manshu, and the two sat in the courtyard of the villa, blowing the breeze of the autumn night. Lin Manshu was afraid that Xiaorong would catch a cold, so she specially prepared a thick blanket for her.

"Auntie, put a blanket over you, so you don't catch a cold. Lin Manshu said.

"Good. ”

Xiao Rong did as Lin Manshu said, she looked at the surrounding scenery and said, "The four seasons are reincarnated, and the year goes by so fast." ”

"yes. Lin Manshu replied kindly, her expression was as calm as water, without the slightest wave.

Fortunately, Xiaorong has known Lin Manshu for a long time, and she has long been accustomed to her attitude of being empty-eyed and calm as water, so she doesn't feel unfamiliar.

"I remember the first time I met you, you were only in your teens, and in the blink of an eye, you were also at the age of marriage. ”

Xiao Rong chatted with Lin Manshu casually, and if there seemed to be no problem, she was actually leading Lin Manshu in one direction.

"Get married?" Lin Manshu said with a smile, "I haven't thought about this." ”

"How can you not want to, no matter how powerful a girl is, she must find a good home. I think Mu Bai is good, you have to get along well. ”

Xiao Rong said these kind words like a mother, which made Lin Manshu feel emotional. Unconsciously thought of her parents, but she soon stifled her feelings for her parents.

"Well, we'll get along. Lin Manshu said.

In order to make it easier to observe Lin Manshu's expression, Xiao Rong kept looking at her, but in order not to cause Lin Manshu's discomfort with her gaze, she would occasionally look elsewhere. Just like now, her eyes were fixed on the streetlights outside.

Once upon a time, she stood in the dim light and waited for a return, but never waited.

"Mu Bai's parents are also very easy to get along with, and it will not be unpleasant for you to meet your parents in the future. ”

When she said this, Xiao Rong obviously saw Lin Manshu's hand holding the cup shook, she didn't expect her to say this.

Lin Manshu remembered the way her parents fought, and suddenly became upset. They must not meet with Mu Bai's parents, yes, no, in case their parents quarrel again when the two families meet, then ......

Lin Manshu didn't dare to think about that scene, just thinking about her was worried enough, if that kind of scene really appeared in reality, what should it be? She knew her parents, although they were not ignorant people, but temper is not something that can be easily changed. They also promised Lin Manshu to repent, but what happened later? They still quarreled, and they still looked embarrassed.
