Bidding farewell to the reluctant red child, it was already dawn when Tao Bao returned to the real world. Glancing at the mobile phone on the bedside table, it was half past eight in the morning on the second day of the lunar calendar.

Her father only has a distant cousin, who has not been in touch for two or three years, and there should be no guests in her house today.

But her mother, since her father died, in order not to let others say anything unpleasant such as taking advantage of her mother's family, she basically rarely moves, and she doesn't know if she wants to go back this year.

She was thinking about it when Wu Yulan, who had already prepared breakfast, knocked on her door.

"Tao Tao, are you up? I fried fried fritters today, do you want to get up and eat some first? It won't taste good if you leave it for a long time. ”

Tao Bao smiled, got up and opened the door directly, which startled Wu Yulan a lot.

When eating breakfast, seeing her thoughtful appearance, Tao Bao smiled and said, "Mom, just say what you want to say, what else is not easy to talk about between us?"

The king of Hades on the side seemed to know something for a long time, so he hurriedly ate the fritters, drank a large mouthful of soy milk and escaped.

Now there is no one else, so it's better to say. Wu Yulan was a little embarrassed: "I thought that the fourth store was only open, we can go to your uncle's house for the past two days, we haven't moved around for so many years, we have to go and have a look, what do you say?"

Wu Yulan also has an eldest brother named Wu Yusheng, ten years older than Wu Yulan, who was an educated youth in the northwest when he was young, and later looked at his current wife Liu Lanxiang, so he stayed there.

Wu Yusheng works as a clerk in a state-owned enterprise over there, with a good salary, and many children, two sons and two daughters, who got married very early, and the youngest daughter is one year older than Tao Bao, and her baby can play soy sauce.

Now that the couple is old and retired at home, the two sons are a soldier and the other is inheriting their father's business, and even the two girls are married there.

The two places are far apart, which is also the reason why Wu Yulan has not often passed for so many years, Tao Bao was still young in the past, and the two elders of her foreign family are still there, and she can still go back to her parents' house, but now that the two elders have died, she basically has not returned to her parents' home.

My brother is Wu Yulan's only relative, and now that she has the time and energy, she still wants to go back, not to say what to do, just to take a look, after all, the age is here, maybe she can't see it when she wants to.

Tao Bao understood her mother's thoughts, she knew that her mother was worried about her uncle's old age, afraid that she would not see her in the future, and she was anxious.

He nodded and said, "Yes, Mom, have you booked a plane ticket?" It's quite far, let's take a plane." Of course, if you're not afraid of strangeness, we'll fly over by ourselves!"

"You girl~" Wu Yulan knew that her daughter was joking in the second half of the sentence, so she glared at her angrily, and then nodded: "I asked Xiaoshan to help me book online, and now you young people can still play with these high-tech." ”

"Mom, why don't I know when you were early Cui Xiaoshan?" Tao Bao frowned, she and Cui Xiaoshan are just friends now, it's not good for my mother to be like this, right?

Wu Yulan knew that she was unhappy when she saw her daughter frowning, so she coughed twice and defended:

"That, isn't it like you weren't there last night, besides, I think Xiaoshanren is very good, Tao Tao, you're 29, are you in a hurry?"

"You're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry, what do you say I should say when I see your aunt? Say you're 29 years old now and don't even have a boyfriend? What do people think of you? My daughter is said that I'm not distressed? Look at that Aunt Xu downstairs, the look in her eyes is old and proud when she looks at me, I ......."

"Stop, stop!"

As soon as he saw his mother talking about this matter again, Tao Bao buried his head in admitting defeat and raised his hand to surrender:

"Mom, please don't mention this in the future, okay? I'm sorry for you, it's my fault that I didn't give you a grandson with a long face! But, Mom, can you not care so much about the eyes of those old ladies? What do people say to make people say it, we are no longer the same, don't you understand?"

Tao Bao raised his head and looked at Wu Yulan, and said seriously: "Mom, it's not the same anymore, I can't graduate, get married, and have children like ordinary girls! This is not what my life should be! Do you understand?"

Wu Yulan was stunned, there was panic in her eyes, but also helplessness and sadness, she hoped that her daughter would be like ordinary children, but this was impossible.

She knows that her daughter likes this job, and even her own changes are due to this job, and she understands them all.

With such a blessing in her hands, what reason could she have to expect something that she shouldn't?

Isn't it good for Tao Tao to be like this now? Actually, she thinks it's good, she hopes that she can live longer, at least so that Tao Tao can have a home when she comes back.

Lao Yan said that she has been in the plane where Tao Tao has stayed for the longest for more than 80 years, which is almost the life of an ordinary person, even longer than her life.

If she gets married, her husband can see her all the time, but what about her? If she stays in one place for decades, she should come back with no enthusiasm, right? Such a marriage cannot be happy.

She wants her Tao Tao to be happy.

Tao Tao is right, she just cares too much about the eyes of others, how many more years can she look at the eyes of those people?

Insignificant compared to this long life.

There was silence at the dinner table, Tao Bao ate breakfast unhurriedly, but he regretted that the tone of his words just now was too heavy.

Unconsciously, she has walked in front of her mother, whether it is experience or mentality, and now her mother has become a child in front of her, which is very helpless, but this is the case.

"Mom, I'm sorry!"

"Tao Tao, I'm sorry!"

The two spoke at the same time, but they didn't expect the other party to apologize to themselves, stunned for half a second, Wu Yulan couldn't help laughing at first, looked at the wall clock on the wall, got up and waved his hand and said:

"Hurry up and eat, it's almost time, the ticket at eleven o'clock, and you won't be able to catch it any later." ”

Tao Bao nodded with a smile, dried up the soy milk in one bite, stuffed the last half of the fritters into his mouth in three or two times, and said vaguely while cleaning up:

"With your daughter's driving skills, you're still afraid that you won't be able to catch up?"

Thinking of her daughter's drag racing skills, Wu Yulan shook her head and smiled, and the mother and daughter packed up together, changed their shoes and bags, and drove directly to the airport.

Thinking of his uncle's house, Tao Bao is still looking forward to it.

In her memory, the last time she saw them was when her father was still there, and the family stopped by to see them while traveling. She still remembered that her aunt had given her a red envelope of twenty yuan, but it was returned by her mother.

Overall, she has a good impression of her uncle's house. Uncle is a bit old-fashioned, but he doesn't interfere with the children's choices. My aunt has a bit of a temper and speaks very straight, but she is generous to people, and the other cousins and cousins are not very impressed.

After all, she was still young at that time, and she was not as cheerful as she is now, she was quite bored when she was a child, and her cousin went out to play and called her together, but she didn't go, and she didn't know what she would look like when she grew up now.
