When Qi Shunjun heard that his wife used the last paragraph of a letter from the Count of Monte Cristo to enlighten his second sister, he just changed his title, and he couldn't help but feel excited, and his eyes moistened to look at his sister-in-law who had lost the courage to survive.

Mrs. Qi naturally didn't understand the source of her daughter-in-law's words, and she didn't understand anything about it, but she could only echo: "Xiaomin, how good your sister-in-law is." And you're a teacher, don't look away. ”

Liu Yongmei's persuasion also made Qi Shunmin's cooled blood boil. She knew that if she sank like this, she would probably never see Chen Xuewu again, she would not hear him sincerely confess to herself, and she would never be able to enjoy his favor again, so she nodded sadly: "Well..."

When Zhang Pengfei brought the freshly boiled porridge, Mrs. Qi asked her second daughter to lie down on the bed and feed it herself.

Qi Shunmin was a little reluctant, so he said, "Mom, I can do it myself..."

Zhang Pengfei, who was on the side, also wanted to reach out to feed his ex-wife, but was rejected by Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi asked her second daughter at this time: "Girl, this is the first bite of food you have eaten since you were rescued, right?" ”

Qi Shunmin didn't know what his mother meant, so he had to nod.

Mrs. Qi sighed: "Child, when you first came to this world, it was also me, the mother, who fed you your first milk. Now that you've got a new lease of life, I'm supposed to feed the first bite of food. ”

When Qi Shunmin heard this, he couldn't help but have mixed feelings, closed his teary eyes, but opened his mouth.

Qi Shunmin after eating some gruel. The body suddenly recovered a little, and he was able to sit up from the bed.

Juanzi came back from grocery shopping, and Zhang Pengfei was busy in the kitchen. He knew the importance of Qi Shunmin's family members to restore the relationship between himself and his ex-wife. Naturally, we have to treat them with all our sincerity.

At this time, Mrs. Qi continued to work as her second daughter: "Xiaomin, Juanzi has delayed going to school for you, she is currently in high school, and she will take the college entrance examination next year, her homework cannot be delayed, and she must go back to school tonight afternoon." And you look like this. I can't let you live alone at home anymore, but I know you're so strong that I won't go back to my parents' house. So. Just let Juanzi's father take care of you for a while, right? ”

"No!" Qi Shunmin shook his head, "I don't need him." ”

"Xiaomin, don't be willful anymore!" Old Lady Qi blamed, "Since you have no one by your side, how can we rest assured of you?" I think Zhang Pengfei has indeed changed. If there is no him. We may not see you again. You're for Juanzi. I'm going to give him another chance. ”

When Qi Shunmin heard this, he immediately remembered what Zhang Pengfei said last time in that 'farmhouse'. Yes, if my family is still broken, how can my daughter study in school with peace of mind. Did he delay his daughter's future for his own selfish interests? ”

"Mom, but I can't let him go..." Qi Shunmin suddenly threw himself into his mother's arms and sobbed.

Liu Yongmei saw that her mother-in-law insisted on matching Qi Shunmin and her ex-husband, so she had no choice but to say: "Xiaomin, don't worry, we will definitely help you find Xuewu and ask him clearly." I believe he is a man who understands. As long as the misunderstanding is clearly explained, there must be a proper solution. Now you will be taken care of by Juanzi's father for the time being. ”

"But he... can't be contacted anymore, and there is no place to go in Shuxi... Where are you looking for him, since he has done something wrong, why should he avoid it..."

Liu Yongmei saw that she still remembered Chen Xuewu. I was quite emotional, and immediately said: "According to common sense, even if he does something foolish after drinking, it is impossible to escape." I have a feeling that there must be something strange in it, so I must find out what it is. ”

Old Mrs. Qi didn't like to listen to it anymore: "Why is Yongmei still talking to him?" I knew that he was a man who wanted to save face, and he felt that if he did this, he would have no face to see people again, so he left Shuxi in a wolf. ”

"Mom!" Qi Shunjun didn't like to listen to it anymore, so he couldn't help but interject: "I think Xiao Chen must have a hard time, so he cut off contact with us." I agree with Yongmei's opinion, or try my best to find him and ask for clarification. ”

Old Mrs. Qi's face changed slightly, and she gave her son and daughter-in-law a fierce look: "You two don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by 'suffering'?" Could it be that he was forced to bully Juanzi when he was drunk? Since he doesn't want to contact us anymore, are we still catching up with him? Don't look at him once contributed to our Qi family, but when I thought that Xiao Min almost didn't leave for him, I was so angry with him that my gums hurt. ”

Seeing this, Qi Shunjun and Liu Yongmei couldn't say anything more.

Qi Shunmin said abruptly at this time: "He left here, he has no home, how should he live in the future..."

Mrs. Qi was so angry that she reprimanded her second daughter: "Why are your bones so soft? Could it be that he has caused such a catastrophe and wants to invite him back to this home again? Does he have such a great deal of magic over you? ”

"Mom, haven't you heard of 'One Day Husband and Wife One Day Hundred Days'?"

"Hmph, that Zhang Pengfei has been with you for almost twenty years, isn't it as good as him and you for less than a year? As the saying goes, couples can only be relied on since childhood, and halfway couples can't do it at all. Even if you and Zhang Pengfei are for Juanzi, you have to live for a while and give it a try. ”

As soon as Qi Shunmin heard his mother say this, he didn't have a temper. However, she is a very dependent woman and can't be independent at all, and now that Zhang Pengfei is back, she can somewhat make up for the emptiness in her heart.

"Mom, eldest brother, sister-in-law, will you come out for dinner?" Zhang Pengfei finished lunch in the kitchen, and he didn't have time to take off his apron, so he lay at the door of the bedroom and persuaded everyone with a smile.

Mrs. Qi, her son and daughter-in-law have been comforting Qi Shunmin for a long time, and before they knew it, they immediately said to their second daughter: "You take care of yourself in bed, and I will go out to eat with your brother and sister-in-law." Wait a while and let Juanzi's dad come in and feed you. ”

At the same time, because of the hints in his sister-in-law Liu Yongmei's words, Qi Shunmin had the mentality of reuniting with Chen Xuewu in his heart. Only then did he regain the courage to survive. But her mother wanted to reconcile her with her ex-husband, which cast a shadow on her heart. After her mother's family left the bedroom one after another, she couldn't help but lie on the bed and cry.

In the restaurant. Zhang Pengfei seemed to be very courteous to entertain Mrs. Qi and others for dinner.

Old Madam Qi inevitably gave him some advice or warning: "Pengfei, you listen to me." I'm leaving Min in your care again now. You must treat her well and not make her angry again. If you still treat Xiao Min like before, then our Qi family will never agree to you! ”

Zhang Pengfei was full of gratitude to the old lady Qi at this time, even if the other party said cruel words, it would make him grateful, so he stood up and bowed deeply to the old mother-in-law: "Thank you, Mom, for fulfilling me and Xiaomin." Don't worry. Our family has been shattered for once. Now that I've been punished and taught a lesson, I already know how to be a husband..."

He glanced at his daughter beside him again, and continued: "And how should I be a father." I will definitely give Xiaomin and Juanzi a happy and warm home! ”

Old Lady Qi nodded with satisfaction: "That's good." We'll see what you do. ”

Zhang Pengfei couldn't take care of eating anymore at this time, so he instructed his daughter: "Juanzi, you accompany your grandmother, uncle and aunt to eat for your father." I'll go into the back room and take care of your mother's food. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the empty plate that he had prepared. picked up some of the dishes that Qi Shunmin usually likes to eat at the dinner table. Then he brought a little rice and brought it into Qi Shunmin's bedroom.

Qi Shunmin drank a bowl of gruel in the morning, although it alleviated her situation, but it aroused her hunger even more, and in the face of her ex-husband's food, she naturally couldn't refuse, but she was reluctant to let her ex-husband feed her in one bite, and insisted on grabbing the chopsticks. Eat it yourself.

Zhang Pengfei simply held the plate for her, watching his ex-wife gobble up the remnants of the clouds...

"Min'er, slow down. Don't choke. Zhang Pengfei persuaded softly.

Qi Shunmin couldn't help but be stunned when he heard him call him the long-lost 'Min'er', and then remembered the scene twenty years ago, when Zhang Pengfei, who had passed the age of establishment, coaxed himself as a girl. At that time, she used to be intoxicated by the man in front of her. However, although she heard the title of 'Min'er' again, she couldn't resonate with it back then. In her voice now, 'Min'er' is far less intimate than Chen Xuewu calling her 'baby'.

While Juanzi was eating, Mrs. Qi said to her granddaughter: "Now that your mother is back to normal, your father has also come home." You can go to school now, right? ”

Juanzi's heart is still heavy, and she is quite surprised that her grandmother didn't ask herself too much, but she is also unhappy with her stepfather in her heart. But is there room for her to maneuver on the cusp?

Faced with her grandmother's inquiry, she said lightly: "Don't worry." I'll go to school after lunch in a while. ”

Qi Shunjun immediately said: "Your father is now with your mother." I'll drive you to school later, shall I? ”

Juanzi shook her head: "No need. It's hard for you to come here, so stay at my house more often and spend time with my mother. I'll take the bus to school in a moment. ”

Mrs. Qi said uneasily: "Your school is more than twenty miles away from home, right?" You should be safe on the road. ”

Juanzi smiled indifferently: "I'm already an adult, go to school in broad daylight, it'll be fine." ”

Old Lady Qi nodded: "That's good." Since you choose to take the bus to school, let's go quickly. Finally, don't miss the afternoon class. ”

Juanzi smiled: "I've eaten now, I'll listen to you and go to school immediately." ”

Juanzi then returned to her room, briefly sorted out her belongings, and left the house with her schoolbag on her back.

After Qi Shunjun waited for his wife to send his niece out, he couldn't help but ask his mother in a low voice: "Why don't you let me send her to school?" ”

Old Mrs. Qi glanced at her son and questioned in a low voice: "Do you want to continue to make things difficult for her on the way to send her?" ”

"This..." Qi Shunjun frowned, "I always feel that something is wrong with this matter." What kind of person Xiao Chen is, don't you know..."

"Enough!" Old Lady Qi interrupted angrily, "Juanzi is difficult enough at the moment, do you, the uncle, really want to rub salt on her wounds?" ”

Qi Shunjun just wanted to defend himself, but found that Zhang Pengfei had waited for Qi Shunmin to finish eating and Liu Yongmei had sent Juanzi downstairs to come back, so he had to remain silent.

Besides, after Juanzi left home, she didn't rush to take the bus to school, and since she had already missed class in the morning, she didn't care about skipping school for another afternoon. She shuttled along the streets of Shuxi City, and her eyes were also looking left and right, hoping to find Chen Xuewu's shadow.

It turned out that after her analysis, even if this stepfather couldn't react in his mind because he was drunk that night, then with his wisdom, he should have understood his trap afterwards. Since the stepfather loves his mother so much, why doesn't he come back and explain? And even the phone has been deprecated, what is wrong with this? Could it be that he saw his own heart and sacrificed his love to fulfill his family? Will he... be that noble?

At the beginning, the scene of Chen Xuewu leaving home with his bags and struggling made her vividly remember, which made her full of remorse and worry about her stepfather's uncertain whereabouts. She tried her best to find him, even if she didn't know what she should say to him after meeting, but at least she knew that the other party was alive and well, which could also make her conscience more steady.

But until the evening, her feet hurt and her legs were sore, and she almost walked all over the streets and alleys of Shuxi City, but where was Chen Xuewu?

Seeing that it was getting dark, she had to take the bus back to school. In the car, she couldn't help but shed tears of remorse... )
