Chapter 297: The Warmth of Home
"As long as I can be with Brother Mosheng, even if it's only for a year or a month, I'm willing. β
Lian Qin's little eyes were full of determination.
It was an irresistible beauty, which made Lu Mosheng can't help but bend the corners of his mouth.
......
"Mom, I'm back." Gu Lan unloaded his tiredness and returned to his home.
As soon as he opened the door, he smelled the aroma of dishes all over the room, Gu Lan sneaked into the kitchen like a little girl, hugged Zhou Xiuzhen from behind, and greedily pouted behind Zhou Xiuzhen's back with his nose.
Zhou Xiuzhen was tickled by her, she hadn't been so intimate with her daughter for a long time, and she was reluctant to let go.
"Mom, what's delicious to cook?" Gu Lan stood up for a while and greedily lifted the lid of the pot.
In the pot is bright braised pork, Gu Lan's favorite dish since he was a child.
Mom's braised pork.
"Yichen didn't come back with you, don't steal your mouth!" Zhou Xiuzhen smiled and patted Gu Lan's chopsticks that secretly stretched out to the meat: "Eat together when I'm all cooked." β
Gu Lan flattened his mouth and looked at Zhou Xiuzhen pitifully: "Mom is the best, just eat a piece, a piece." β
A slender finger shook reluctantly in front of Zhou Xiuzhen, Zhou Xiuzhen had been teased by Gu Lan, where could she stand her coquettishness, so she could only nod helplessly.
Gu Lan quickly picked up a small piece of braised pork from the pot and threw it into his mouth with lightning speed.
"Hiss" Gu Lan sucked his mouth.
"Gluttonous cat, it's hot, go out and clean up the table, and eat later."
Zhou Xiuzhen lovingly pushed Gu Lan out, locked the kitchen door, and concentrated on stir-frying.
"Daddy is still reading the newspaper." Gu Lan rubbed to Gu Mingcheng's side like a kitten, the father in his memory always looked serious, but his father was her solid backer, and now Gu Mingcheng is a little old, but he is much kinder than when he was a child.
Gu Mingcheng took off his reading glasses and put the newspaper on the coffee table to look at the grown daughter carefully.
"Lan Lan, something is wrong with you today, is there something wrong?"
Gu Lan has always been more independent. Standing independently, she rarely sticks to her side like a little girl and is coquettish.
Gu Lan sniffed, stood behind Gu Mingcheng, stretched out a pair of hands on his shoulders, and squeezed them seriously for a while.
Not to mention, it was really very comfortable for his shoulders to be massaged like this, and Gu Mingcheng couldn't help but lean on the sofa relaxedly.
"Dad, are you comfortable, I haven't massaged your shoulders since I grew up."
"Yes, when you were a child, you liked to pinch your father's shoulders and legs like you did on TV, and now you're married in the blink of an eye." Gu Mingcheng sighed a little, how could that little girl become a mother all of a sudden.
Where has all the time gone?
"I'll come back every week to pinch your shoulder." Gu Lan's voice was a little choked.
She was very sad, and it wasn't until Lian Chuyu left that she understood what it meant to have a son who wanted to raise her and not be a parent, so she now cherished the time she spent with her adoptive parents, and once these times passed, she would never come back.
"Lanlan, come and sit down." Gu Mingcheng noticed that something was wrong with her, and took her hand and let her sit on the sofa.
"Lanlan, Dad knows that you are unhappy, and we are also very sorry about Mrs. Su's affairs, we finally found your biological parents, but I didn't expect it to become like this."
Gu Mingcheng sighed faintly, no one would have thought that even Chuyu's visit that day would be the last.
"Dad, I'm fine, isn't the most important thing right now about us who are alive? In the future, I will honor you and my mother well, and we will always be together. Gu Lan's tears couldn't be hidden, she immediately came to Gu Mingcheng's side and grabbed his wrist and buried her face in his arms.
It's so warm, different from Shen Yichen's stability, and his father is the taste of home.
"Not only us, but also Mayor Su, he is left alone, Lan Lan, you have to accompany him more." Gu Mingcheng became serious again in vain, Su Yang lost his beloved wife, and was paralyzed in bed unable to speak or act, and he must have felt more uncomfortable in his heart than anyone else.
Gu Lan nodded silently, how could she not know?
The original plan was to push Su Yang to visit Lian Chuyu at the Beicheng Cemetery in the afternoon, Su's father should have a lot of things to say to his mother, the regret of being separated forever.
Thinking of this, Gu Lan suddenly missed Shen Yichen a little, she should cherish the current time.
"What about Yichen? Why didn't I come back with you? β
"I'm here Dad..."Shen Yichen's dusty voice came from outside the door.
There are a lot of things in the company, but he promised Gu Lan that he would go home to eat with his parents, how could he break his promise.
Gu Lan heard his voice and ran to him as fast as a fawn and pecked him lightly on the forehead.
Shen Yichen smiled gently, what's wrong with this girl today, it's rare to be so active.
"I just came, Lan Lan was still thinking about you just now, there have been a lot of things recently, and our family hasn't eaten together for a long time." Gu Mingcheng stood up, patted his pants, and set up the tablecloth with a smile.
Gu Lan ran into the kitchen like a gust of wind, took out a few pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and placed them neatly on the table: "Dad, don't make fun of me, I didn't think about him." β
The crimson on her face betrayed her.
"Come on, come on, I'll cook all the dishes you all love to eat, one person is the same, I'm going to eat them all today." Zhou Xiuzhen took off her apron and walked to the table, and Shen Yichen was not idle, helping Gu Lan put a few dishes on the table.
"Mom is eccentric, where can I eat such a big pot of braised pork, you obviously treat me as a little pig..."Gu Lan salivated at the braised pork stacked like a hill in front of him.
"Your mother is obviously partial to you, okay, look at your father, know that I love to eat vegetables, so he fried me such a pot, and I didn't even see a shadow of meat." Gu Mingcheng pretended to be disgusted and picked up a green vegetable and threw it down.
Zhou Xiuzhen took a sip of him and handed the bowl of rice to Shen Yichen: "Yes, yes, yes, I'm biased, you old man, the doctor said that you have high blood pressure and forgot it, so you should eat less meat!" β
Gu Lan listened to his parents, you and I joked with each other, biting his chopsticks and laughing stupidly.
The most ordinary life in the world is nothing more than that, but this is the happiest life.
"Mom and Dad, I'm full!" Gu Lan threw away the chopsticks, and Shen Yichen shook his head helplessly to help her put away the dishes and chopsticks.
Zhou Xiuzhen hurriedly grabbed it and put it in the pool: "My hands are injured, what are you doing so politely, Yichen, you have to learn more from Lanlan, you are lazy to do it." β
Shen Yichen raised his bandaged right hand.
Fortunately, he is a very fast learner, and he can eat with his left hand in just a few days.
"Mom, how do I think Yichen is your son." Gu Lan looked at Zhou Xiuzhen dissatisfied, his mouth pursed high.
"Well, I'm still jealous after being a mother, and I don't know how to take care of the patient."
Gu Lan stuck out his tongue at Shen Yichen, turned his head to Zhou Xiuzhen and laughed stupidly: "It's good, Mom, you don't seem to mind some things at all." β
"What do I have to mind, you silly boy. I've figured it out a long time ago, it doesn't matter if it's biological or not, but now I hope you go to Su's house more often, and my mother feels better. β
Zhou Xiuzhen's nose became sour as she spoke, and in order not to cry in front of Shen Yichen, she immediately turned her back and faced the kitchen to wipe her tears.
Gu Lan knew that her mother had always been soft-hearted, and she could cry a lot when she watched a TV series on weekdays, not to mention such a big change in the Su family.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, mom is the best, we will all be with Meimei like this in the future." Gu Lan walked over and hugged Zhou Xiuzhen and comforted him softly.
"Look at you, and you still say that I, you cry in front of your daughter and son-in-law, isn't it embarrassing for me." Although Gu Mingcheng said this, he honestly pulled out a few sheets of tissue paper from the coffee table.
"Dead old man, I don't know who said every night that he couldn't sleep and felt restless."
Gu Lan watched his parents start to lift each other's bottoms again, and spread his hands to Shen Yichen and made a helpless movement.
After coming out of his adoptive parents' house, Gu Lan took a deep breath and took Shen Yichen's hand and walked around the road a few times.
Behind was a row of four or five black Infiniti cars following slowly, and passers-by were speechless at the discordant picture.
"Lanlan, what's wrong?" Shen Yichen's gentle voice came from above Gu Lan's head.
Gu Lan rubbed his little nose and grinned: "It's okay, I just really think that life is very good now!" β
She nodded vigorously, as if to reinforce her words.
"Fool, cry if you want to." Shen Yichen rubbed her hair and rubbed her directly into his arms.
Bumping into the man's warm and solid chest, Gu Lan couldn't hold back the sore nose anymore, and tears soon wet Shen Yichen's shirt.
"Yichen, why is this happening? I finally found my biological mother, and before I could have a meal with her and do something for her, she was gone. β
Gu Lan cried lowly, and his little shoulders shrugged to make Shen Yichen full of pity.
"And Lu Mosheng, when I was a child, I really longed to marry him, he was so gentle, he rushed in front of me at any time, and never let me be wronged."
When Shen Yichen heard this, he twitched the corners of his mouth.
This stupid woman, so wantonly praising another man in front of him, I don't know if he will be jealous?
"Now I have always regarded him as my own brother, but God is so cruel, my mother is gone, and one day Lu Mosheng will also leave."
Well, if Gu Lan hadn't added this sentence again, Shen Yichen would probably have thrown her into the car and occupied her for a while, so that she could understand who her husband was.
"Lan Lan, I won't leave you."
My wife, I will be with you for the rest of your life.
"Really?" Gu Lan wiped away a handful of tears, raised his head and looked at him pitifully.
Shen Yichen was killed by her red rabbit eyes in seconds, and the soft piece in her heart was about to melt away.
"Retractor hook." Gu Lan stretched out his little finger almost in a rogue tone.
Cut, so naΓ―ve ...
Although he thought so in his heart, Shen Yichen immediately stretched out his unbandaged hand as a reflex, and pressed his two thumbs tightly together.
Gu Lan looked at the hook and smiled contentedly like a child.
