Chapter 70 Chapter 70
The top floor of Yimao was white, with a thick layer of snow; When the snow stopped, it was a clear day, and the afterglow of the setting sun overhead seemed to coat the snow with a warm gold.
"It's a lot of snow!" Tim cried out happily and looked at Yi Pei gratefully. It seems that this snow is a gift from Yi Pei.
"Thank you, Brother Yi." The wind from the tall building made Tim's cheeks red, and he politely asked, "Can I use them now?" β
"You're welcome." Yi Pei replied to Tim, and with Tim's words, he generously said, "Just use them, they are all yours." β
Shi Jian couldn't help laughing, in addition to being infected by Tim's joyful affection, there was also Yi Pei's words. She reached out and tied Tim's scarf tightly, and Tim was a little impatient. He stepped on the snow, "creaking", and urged her pitifully, "Baby, can you hurry up?" β
Shi Jian reassured: "OK."
Tim and Yi Pei started building a snowman, and then shouted at her, "Jane, we may need your help."
Shi Jian responded: "No problem." β
The mood is like snow shining in the sun, fluffy and soft, melting unconsciously. But the snow turned into water, and there was nothing left. Shi Jian thought about her feelings for Mr. Ye, whether there would be a day when it melted into water.
The three of them built a snowman together. Shi Jian suspected that Yi Pei had never played with the snow at all, but fortunately, his hands-on ability was good, and the three of them completed a fat snowman, but there was no nose, and there was nothing on the roof of Yi Mao's building that could be used as a snowman's nose.
"Is there a way?" Yi Pei asked her, in a negotiating tone.
Shi Jian shook his head, saying that he couldn't think of a way. In fact, there is a way, in the past, Ye Jiacheng and her built a snowman in a mountain villa in Hokkaido, when Ye Jiacheng directly ripped off the buttons of his coat and used it as the eyes and nose of a snowman. Too bad an idea, Shi Jian didn't say. The wind blew her a little cold, she shrunk her neck, looked at the snowman, and said, "I think...... It's not bad to have a nose. β
Yi Pei: "Really? β
Tim also comforted himself: "It's good that it won't freeze its nose at night." With that, Tim sniffed, his nose was almost frozen.
"Haha." Yi Pei smiled, took out a handkerchief and handed it to Tim, Tim took it, wiped his nose, was embarrassed to return it to Yi Pei, and discussed, "I'll pay you back next time." β
Yi Pei nodded gently, "It's okay." β
Finally, Tim and Fat Snowman pose for a photo, and they are about the same height. Yi Pei stood next to Tim, and Shi Jian took a picture of it. Yi Pei was dressed in a black suit, and her eyebrows and eyes were also red from the cold. Shi Jian thought that Yi Pei was afraid of cold, and Zhang Kai also said that Yi was afraid of cold, and immediately complained about his carelessness.
Tim returned to China, and Shi Jian took him back to Yang's house to live, not only to live more comfortably, but also to play with Nini during the day. On the other hand, she doesn't have to bring Tim to work. Yi Pei and Zhang Kai don't mind, it doesn't mean that there is no impact.
In the evening, Tim washed Yi Pei's handkerchief, dried it with a hair dryer, and then folded it to return it to Yi Pei. Tim's virtue of being serious and careful is really with Ms. Fang; In terms of life, her personality is more like Professor Shi.
In the small living room on the second floor of the Yang family, Shi Jian was half-lying on the sofa, her head tilted up, and Tim next to her suddenly asked seriously: "Jane, are you trapped in love?" β
Shi Jian smiled sharply, Tim's Chinese level is simply improving by leaps and bounds, and he can say the word "trapped by love". Shi Jian looked at Jane with a smile, she also wanted to find someone to talk to. It's a pity that no one can help her with her troubles, and Tim is so young. Yi Pei is so powerful, there is no way to give it to her. Time has changed a bit, and there is no way to set things right.
Shi Jian sighed quietly, there is a word in Chinese called "depression into disease". It's been almost a year, and Shi Jian sometimes thinks she's getting better, but in fact she's not getting better at all, it's just that all the depression has become a tumor in her heart, and it won't have obvious symptoms like a cold. As for whether the situation is good or bad, whether the tumor is benign or malignant, she does not know.
She looked so troubled, Tim looked at her, and had already said, "Are you choosing Brother Jiacheng or Brother Yi?" β
If that's the case, it's really troublesome. Tim thought he would hesitate between Abby and Cherry, but if he only chose one, the other would be sad, and he didn't want the other to be sad. If he chooses both, they will call him a big bastard.
Tim also thought about his worries and exchanged feelings with Shi Jian.
Ha ha! It's not the same situation at all. Shi Jian thought about it, and still asked Tim with a smile in a chatting tone: "Let me make an analogy, for example, one day my sister forgot about you and didn't love you anymore." I don't like you anymore with a new brother...... π₯ What would you do? Will you hate me? β
The tears of the children in the Shi family are really low, as if they are born with many sensitive cells. She just made an analogy, and Tim thought about it, and the tears were already coming out, and he asked her more seriously, "Why don't you want me?" β
"Because I forgot you, I can't remember you." Shi Jian explained, seeing Tim's red eyes, he hurriedly joked, "Tim, it's just a hypothesis." β
Tim wiped away his tears and turned his head, indicating that he didn't like her assumption at all.
Shi Jian was so sorry that she pushed Tim flatteringly, and after a while, Tim answered her question: "I don't think I should hate you, but I won't be nice to you." β
"Why?" Shi Jian asked, inexplicably, her tears were about to come out.
Tim lowered his head, sobbed twice, and said, "Because I don't want to see you have a new brother, I'll be sad, and if you have a new brother, I'll be sad, so I won't be okay with you." β
Shi Jian continued: "Tim, which do you think makes you sadder than when I have a new brother who doesn't want you, or who completely forgets that you don't want you?" β
Tim was reluctant to answer, came over for a long time, and replied to her in a muffled voice: "Forget me, I can accept that you have a new brother, but you can't forget me." β
Yes, what is more sad than losing is being forgotten.
Shi Jian burst into tears, and Tim also had red eyes, and did not forget to turn around and wipe her tears. It seems that in the next second, the two of them can hug their heads and cry freely. Shi Jian really thinks that she and Tim can go to act in a family film with deep sister-brother love, and they don't want the crew to provide eye drops.
Tim's personality has always been simple and simple, and the hypothetical question just now made him look melancholy, as if he was really worried that she would forget him, and she must promise not to forget him.
Shi Jian promised three times before Tim was satisfied.
It was embarrassing that the aunt and the sister-in-law knew that she and Tim cried because of this boring assumption, and they were very speechless, and the sister-in-law also said venomously: "Your sister and brother's love of crying must not have inherited your mother...... Tim, tell me about your dad, is he a crybaby too? β
Tim shook his head in denial: "No! β
Shi Jian went to work the next day, Yi Pei hadn't come over yet, she took the handkerchief that Tim confessed she brought to Yi Pei, sandwiched it in the folder of today's article, and put it in front of Yi Pei's desk.
Yi Pei came to work in the afternoon, passing by the office outside, and saw someone sleeping on a recliner from a distance, covered with a blanket, and the sun outside quietly enveloped her, illuminating her fair face clearly and beautifully.
Yi Pei returned to the office, and Shi Jian had already sorted out today's work and put it in front of his desk. The job of an assistant, she is getting better and better, and even because of her status as an assistant, she will maintain the relationship between him and her so that she will not cross the line, and she really won't give him a chance at all. If he were to take a step forward, he would not only lose the opportunity to love her, but also be a good assistant.
However, how can the greedy word of human nature make him lightly satisfied with his current situation, otherwise how can there be the word wishful thinking.
Yi Pei opened the Wen JiΓ n folder and saw that there was a well-folded handkerchief inside, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook. He leaned back and closed Wen JiΓ n back again. There is one thing that I don't know if I want to say or not.
Mayor Ye and Mrs. Ye have come to City A a while ago, and Mayor Ye has a health problem and has to undergo a brain tumor operation with a success rate of only 50%. Zhang Kai has already visited on behalf of him, and he also went there today to make sure that the operation has been arranged for next month, and wait for Ye Jiacheng to contact the most authoritative foreign brain doctor to come over.
In the past year, the development of Yimao Real Estate in Qinglin has been taken care of by Mayor Ye, on the contrary, Mayor Ye has ...... to his son should be dissatisfied with Ye Jiacheng's establishment of a real estate company.
There is anger in the heart. Mayor Ye is indeed a good father who has a clear distinction between public and private and is strict with his godson.
"Dad, I know you're mad at me." Ye Jiacheng sat beside the hospital bed and coaxed him good-naturedly, "But you will have surgery next month, can you cooperate with the doctor to adjust your mood." β
Father Ye retracted his breath, and said seriously: "Jiacheng, why don't you listen to my advice?" If you have to tinker with real estate, you have to know ......"
"Okay, these questions, I'll talk about them after your operation, I'll listen to you." Ye Jiacheng compromised every word, laughing and comforting.
Father Ye shook his head, he knew his son's character too well, and he had to cramp and pull out his bones to know what the pain was!
Ye Jiacheng was helpless, peeling an apple and playing, his skills were skillful, and his eyes didn't look at it much. Sure enough, as Mayor Ye praised in person before, peeling apples is a good advantage for Ye Jiacheng.
He has many advantages, but what has been praised since he was a child is the one that Ye Jiacheng himself dismisses the most. It seems that his father has always disagreed with many of his behaviors.
Ye Jiacheng feels that this is a father-son generation gap, but no matter how big the generation gap is, it becomes insignificant in front of his father's health. Father Ye is going to have such a risky operation, and it is naturally Ye Jiacheng who is worried. During this time, Ye Jia was really tired, and he was not without panic. It's just a family, the father who is like a big tree has fallen, and the mother is a silk flower wrapped around the tree, and his temperament has always been weak and has no ideas, and many things must be decided by him.
He tried his best, but the success rate of the operation was still too low, only 50% of the success rate. It's like tossing a coin in the air, either life or death. Ye Jiacheng didn't even dare to say this probability, he was more worried about his mother than his tough and principled father.
There is something bad and there is good, Mother Ye has lived for half her life, it is impossible not to understand this truth of life. The husband is sick, the son has become stronger, and he has taken on a role from beginning to end, and she really doesn't need to worry about it as a mother. During the time when Ye Jiacheng went abroad to ask for a brain doctor, Miss Yi always came to accompany her, but when her son was there, Miss Yi rarely came.
I have to say that Mother Ye is very satisfied with the Miss Yi family, who has a good family background and a good background, is beautiful and gentle, and is simply the best daughter-in-law. Mother Ye often wants to use this topic to have a good chat with her son.
Is it possible to wait for his father to have surgery and settle the matter between the two? It's a pity that every time she talks about this issue, her son is impatient and tries his best to perfunctory her. However, Ye's mother has been perfunctory by her son for many years and is used to it.
Originally, when Miss Shi, when Mother Ye was bored in the hospital with the bed, she would also gossip about her son's tone, what was going on? As a result, Jiacheng didn't seem to want to answer her question, as if he had no face, knowing his son Mo Ruomu, eighty percent didn't catch up.
Ye Jiacheng peeled the skin and handed it to himself, Ye's mother looked at her son with satisfaction, how handsome and filial she was, and she felt that Miss Shi might have bad eyes. But in terms of feelings, she, as a mother, must be biased towards her son.
Every time Ye's mother praised her son in front of Ye's father, Ye's father shook his head: "Can't you see his shortcomings, if he continues like this, he will regret it." β
"Then tell me, what's wrong with my son?" Ye Mu disagreed, "Don't you have shortcomings?" You said that your son has a bad temper, but I think you are not good. β
Father Ye didn't say anything more, and if he said one more thing, he could only lose one sentence, and his mother was so defeated.
Of course, Mother Ye knows where her son's shortcomings are, but will she not understand the son she gave birth to? It's just that from childhood to adulthood, my son is smart and polite, and he looks so good, and occasionally he makes people itch, but can't she protect her a little bit as a mother? It's not just her who is a mother, those uncles who follow his father to do things, which one doesn't hurt Jiacheng to the bones.
That's right, her Jiacheng is young and vigorous, and in the words of Father Ye, she thinks very highly of herself. What's wrong with having a high self-esteem? Mother Ye also complained about Father Ye, who made you the mayor?
In short, her success is already very good, and Mother Ye does not allow Father Ye to preach every day, and she is annoyed to death.
Okay, Father Ye won't talk about it.
Here, Shi Jian didn't expect that she would meet her Ye mother, her ex-mother-in-law, in City A. She came to the old street of City A alone to buy a soothing essential oil lamp, and Yi Pei was specially reminded by Emliy on her birthday. As an assistant, she can't afford to buy expensive ones, so she can only buy a heart.
Yi Pei has a habit of being a little fragrant, because he doesn't sleep well. She used to light an essential oil lamp when she didn't sleep well, and it worked well. After buying the essential oil lamp, Shi Jian came to an old essential oil store in City A again, selected the matching essential oil, and then looked up and saw Ye Mu.
has been the daughter-in-law of the Ye family for five years, even if Ye Jiacheng's relationship is gone, Shi Jian is also close to Ye's mother. After losing a little bit, no matter how sad Ye Mu was, she didn't blame her. Ms. Fang couldn't take care of her abroad, so Mother Ye specially brought her favorite snacks from Qinglin City, and stewed duck for her every day.
Just meeting again, it's such a scene. Shi Jian stood in front of Ye Mu, pursed her lips and smiled, Ye Mu also remembered her and called out: "Hour! β
"Aunt Ye, you smell this ......" At this moment, another voice came, Shi Jian looked at Yi Biya who came over, the weather outside was very good, Yi Biya was wearing a sweater with a strap skirt, and her dress and appearance were very quiet.
Yi Biya smiled at her, and Shi Jian also slowly smiled, somewhat understanding.
"Okay." Mother Ye took Yi Biya's recommendation, and also said to Shi Jian not far away, "Miss Shi, you also come over to help me smell this." β
Ye Mu greeted Shi Jian with a smile. To be honest, Mother Ye likes Shi Jian very much. The last time I saw it in Qinglin City, I liked it very much, and I hoped to be my daughter-in-law when I was young. However, there will be a certain bias in the relationship, these days when Ye Jiacheng is away, the person who accompanies her is Miss Yi, not to mention that Miss Yi is so good that she is in her heart.
Ye Mu selects essential oils, Shi Jian recommends two, and selects them according to Ye Mu's previous preferences. Mother Ye smelled it and liked it very much, it was rare to like it more than the one that Miss Yi chose for herself.
However, Mother Ye still chose Yi Biya for herself, and she couldn't make her son's girlfriend sad.
Shi Jian saw that Ye Mu put the essential oil she had chosen back and smiled easily. Yi Biya also smiled at her, as if comforting her: "Shi Jian, thank you." β
Shi Jian: "It's okay. β
The two sides said goodbye, and Ye Mu and Yi Biya left together, holding hands. Shi Jian put away the essential oil she had bought, she looked at the back of the two leaving, and quickly turned her head.
thought about it self-deprecatingly, in fact, it's okay, at least she won't make Ye's mother sad and make herself feel sorry. Mrs. Guo is so capable, Yi Biya should also have heredity. Haha, Shi Jian exhaled, deliberately thinking about things funny, and his mood was immediately relieved.
And she will not be rare. What if Guo's mother-in-law is rich, she is so stingy in doing things, and she is not as generous and intellectual as Ms. Fang. She wished Mr. Ye a stingy mother-in-law in the future and tortured him every day.
Well, it can't be. But it's better to comfort yourself than to humiliate yourself.
Shi Jian went to work the next day, but he still knew that Ye's father was going to have surgery, and inadvertently heard from Zhang Kai's mouth that Ye Jiacheng invited a British brain doctor to operate on Ye's father.
Father Ye had undergone a risky operation, and Shi Jian knew that before she married Ye Jiacheng. After brain tumor surgery, after Ye's father had surgery, he often wore a peaked cap in order to cover the scar on his head. The first time she saw Ye's father, she thought that Mayor Ye, who was wearing a peaked cap, was very handsome, and then Ye Jiacheng told her that her father had undergone major surgery.
Ye Jiacheng said that the operation almost cost him half his life back then, and he went to the UK to hire the most authoritative brain doctor, but unfortunately the brain doctor did not buy his account at that time, and he had no way to spend money. In the end, a very young surgeon in China was hired for the operation, and the operation was more risky.
But the operation was successful, and the young surgeon also became famous. After that, the Ye family had contact with the surgeon every year. So last time Ye Jiacheng went to the UK, in order to invite that authoritative brain doctor? If Mr. Ye couldn't afford to spend money before, the current Ye Jiacheng can definitely afford it.
However, if you use this young doctor in China, Shi Jian knows that the probability of success is 100%, and the British doctor who spent money to hire is only 50%.
Life is really full of multiple-choice questions.
Shi Jian rubbed her temples, she went to Yi Pei's office to explain her work, Yi Pei looked up at her, and asked her directly, "Do you want to visit?" β
Shi Jian quickly understood that it was Yi Pei who asked Zhang Kai to tell her that Ye's father was hospitalized in City A.
Yi Pei's intentions, Shi Jian didn't understand.
Indeed, Yi Pei instructed Zhang Kai to tell SΓΉ Shi Jian about this, and he would not regret that he couldn't help her decide some things, even if he was just a friend, he would sue SΓΉ her.
If she had no reason to visit, he would take her.
"It just so happens that I am going to visit Mayor Ye today and promise to play chess with him." Yi Pei focused his gaze on Shi Jian's eyes, feeling the softness, "You can go with me." β
Shi Jian raised his head: "Thank you, Mr. Yi." β
"Little things." Yi Pei smiled, "Compared to you helping me, do I want to say thank you too." β
Shi Jian's help, just doing things. She now goes over to chat with Mr. Yi every week and play the piano, which is not a difficult task, and Yi Pei pays her extra.
Shi Jian followed Yi Pei to Mayor Ye's ward, the senior cadre ward of the best public hospital in City A, the conditions are not as good as the private senior ward of Yi Mao Hospital, and it is also a small suite, which has everything.
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Jiacheng was not there, and in addition to Ye's mother and Ye's father, there was also a senior nurse invited by Ye Jiacheng in the ward. Shi Jian came to visit as Yi Pei's assistant, and didn't know what to buy, so he bought some fruits and two bags of nutritional products that Father Ye used to love. There is no shortage of these things in Ye's father's ward, and there are more piles than the last time she saw Mr. Yi. Shi Jian put his own and other people's together, there is no difference.
Mother Ye peeled a sweet orange for her, separated it in half and handed it to her, this is the habit of Mother Ye peeling oranges. Shi Jian took the orange and ate a petal, which was very sweet. Yi Pei played chess with Father Ye for a while, answered the phone, and left the ward first. Mother Ye took her to the lounge inside and continued to chat.
Shi Jian sat on the sofa, she was no longer a daughter-in-law, and she could only say a few pleasant words as an ordinary junior.
"Thank you, hour." Ye Mu took her hand and asked, "What about you...... Do you have someone you like? β
Mother Ye asked, it's not for nothing, the girl whose son can't catch up, there must be someone in her heart.
Shi Jian didn't answer, changed the topic, and his eyes also turned around, and he saw a sandalwood box not far away, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
Seeing her looking at the sandalwood box, Ye Mu took it and opened it. Shi Jian looked at the bracelet inside, looking slightly stunned.
This bracelet was originally hers. When Ye Jiacheng took her to meet her parents for the first time, Ye's mother gave it to her, and when she opened it to show her, she was also like now, excited and looking forward to it.
"Do you like it, Shi ......?"
The voices in his ears overlapped a little, and Shi Jian retracted his senses, only to hear what Ye Mu said: "I plan to give it to Xiaoya as a meeting gift, you can take a look at it when you are young, is it okay?" β
Yes, of course. Very good, Shi Jian nodded hurriedly. This bracelet with a whole body of turquoise is the best jewelry of Ye Mu. To be honest, when she saw this bracelet just now, she subconsciously thought it was her own.
Because she has owned it for many years, she occasionally takes it out and wears it. After knowing the value of the bracelet, she didn't dare to wear it casually, Ye Jiacheng smiled and asked her to keep the bottom of the box.
Mother Ye asked her to take a look, and Shi Jian carefully took it from Mother Ye's hand and held it in her hand. The bracelet was no different from the feeling she felt when she saw it for the first time, the heavy glass jade bracelet was full of water. Good jadeite has a priceless market,
"By the way, I'll pour you some water." Ye Mu stood up and went to pour water.
Ye Mu didn't know that the bottom of the boiling kettle had been loosened and was about to lift it.
Shi Jian looked up, only to see the bottom of the red boiling kettle falling and the bottle gall falling, she shouted to be careful, put down the bracelet and stood up.
"Bang", the gall of the kettle still fell and shattered, because she said be careful, Ye Mu reacted and did not burn.
But it was this bracelet that fell to the ground with the gall of the kettle. Accidentally, it was empty.
The bracelet that Ye Mu wanted to give Yi Biya fell to the ground and broke into two.
Stiffness all over the body.
For a moment, Shi Jian felt that the pot of boiling water was not spilled on the ground, as if it was all poured on her heart. She was speechless, like she was stupid.
This bracelet is too precious and has a different meaning. Shi Jian really couldn't even say the words of apology, the whole person was stunned, feeling isolated from the world, and just wanted to escape immediately. Because of this bracelet, she can't afford to pay it anyway.
I can't afford to lose this money, and I can't afford to lose this love.
How I wish I could just pour boiling water on myself, so that my heart would not be so uncomfortable and anxious to the extreme. After such an accident, Yi Pei finished the phone call and also came in.
All the words of apology in the back were said by Yi Pei for her.
Shi Jian only felt a buzz in her ears, she didn't dare to raise her head, and she didn't dare to look at Ye Mu's eyes, Ye Mu smiled dryly, but comforted her, it's okay.
It can't be okay.
Ye Jiacheng came from the company and brought a piece of rice noodles that his mother liked, he took off his coat, wore a black high collar and walked to the family rest room, watching his mother sit aside and wipe his tears, feeling helpless. Walking over slowly, Ye Jiacheng looked at Mother Ye with a smile in her eyes, and asked like a child, "Mrs. Ye, what's wrong with you?" β
