The next day, Ye Zhiran was reviewing documents in the office when Ma Yanli's phone suddenly called.

"Ah Ran, I'm Ma Yanli, where are you?"

"I'm in the office, what's wrong?"

Ma Yanli's voice sounded a little anxious, and she said, "Ah Ran, can you come to Changjia once?" ”

Ye Zhiran put the documents in his hand on the desk and asked in surprise, "Are you in Changjia?" What's going on? ”

Ma Yanli had been accompanying Huang Yuwen in the UK before, and after the epidemic, she did not return to HK, but chose to stay with Huang Yuwen to take care of her and her newborn son.

"My mom is gone, can you come and see him?"

After Ma Yanli divorced ten years ago, her mother has been whispering in her ears, hoping that she will get married soon. As a mother, she is naturally worried about Ma Yanli's future life. In a small town like Changjia, a traditional woman like her mother has a deep-rooted belief that a woman can only be at peace if she marries. Later, Ma Yanli suddenly transferred from the township government to the garment factory as the factory director, because it was just in time for the reform and opening up, Ma Shi garment factory was J University as a pilot enterprise for economic reform to carry out the joint-stock reform pilot, and with the help of Professor Lin and Liu Shiqing, it was successfully listed, which put a booster on the development of the garment factory. Subsequently, Ma Shi Garment Factory took advantage of the favorable factors of time, place and people, coupled with Ma Yanli's business talent to give full play, the garment factory developed rapidly and became the first brand of private enterprises in Jianan. Her mother was still worried about her marriage until Ma Yanli announced that she was married to an Englishman, and then settled in HK and gave birth to a son.

Jiajia grew up slowly. Ma Yanli's mother always felt that something was wrong.

Especially Ye Zhihui's parents show unusual concern for Jiajia, as long as Jiajia returns to Changjia, the old couple is like being attracted by a magnet and can't wait to be by Jiajia's side every day. For this matter, she repeatedly tried to find the truth by circumstantial evidence.

There are too many doubts!

Her mother is not a fool, and under the cold watch, many details have been unearthed by her.

First of all, from marriage to childbirth, to divorce, Ma Yanli has never met her son-in-law. It also made her full of questions. It's not normal, it's not normal.

Secondly, not only did Ye Zhihui's parents show excessive concern for Jiajia, but Ma Yanli also showed filial piety to Ye Zhihui's parents like a daughter. Although she has a good relationship with Ye Zhihui, it shouldn't come to this point.

Afterward. I also heard that Ye Zhihui's parents went to live in HK for a while. Pick up and drop off Jiajia to school......

She just felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Helplessly, Ma Yanli was tight-lipped. He refused to tell her the truth.

…… Ye Zhiran was taken aback and asked, "Yanli, what's wrong with my aunt?" What went wrong? ”

Ma Yanli sobbed: "My mother was diagnosed with liver cancer a year ago. She has been receiving treatment in the provincial capital, and this time the hospital in the provincial capital said that she was no longer good, and in the past two days, the family had automatically discharged her, and wanted her to leave at home...... Mom has been haunted by something, she wants to see the father of the child, can you come over once? Fulfill the wishes of the elderly? I'll arrange a time, call me before you arrive, okay? ”

Ma Yanli begged softly, Ye Zhiran knew that there was a great risk in going, so he had to go.

Not to mention that Ma Yanli has always regarded him as her man, and she has spent more time with his parents than Nian Yue, even in Jiajia's face, she can't bear to refuse his grandmother's last request before she died.

"Okay, I'll come out immediately and call you before Chang Jia."

"You let Zhang Dabin drive, be careful on the road."

Ye Zhiran called Zhang Huimin in and said, "Xiao Zhang, I have something urgent to go to Changjia once, if there is nothing special, you can help me block it." If you're in a hurry, you call my other phone. ”

After speaking, he handed over a commonly used mobile phone to Zhang Huimin.

Zhang Huimin understood that this was to ask him to stay in the office and not follow the municipal party committee secretary ~ Ji to act together. As a secretary, Zhang Huimin would never ask why, and said, "Do you want to inform Liu Dacheng to prepare the car?" ”

"No, I'll let Zhang Dabin drive."

Hurriedly went downstairs, Zhang Dabin had already started the car after receiving the call, and when he drove to the door of the municipal party committee office building, Ye Zhiran happened to get down. After getting in the car, Ye Zhiran said: "Dabin, go to Changjia." ”

The Audi quickly slid out.

Waiting for the car to drive up the highway, Ye Zhiran asked: "Dabin, do you know that Ma Yanli's mother is sick?" ”

Zhang Dabin said: "I know, but my cousin won't let me tell you, for fear that you will be distracted." ”

Zhang Dabin's wife is Ma Yanli's cousin, after Ma Yanli's business became bigger, she asked her to be in charge of clothing sales in East China, Zhang Dabin knew about the matter between Ye Zhiran and Ma Yanli, but he was tight-lipped and didn't even tell his wife.

Ye Zhiran sighed and said, "When you arrive at Changjia, you park the car in a safe place, and we will walk over." ”

"Understood."

Zhang Dabin drove fast and steadily, and in less than an hour, the car had already driven to the territory of Changjia, and Ye Zhiran called Ma Yanli.

Ma Yanli said anxiously: "Ah Ran, come over quickly, wear a pair of sunglasses, and I'll ask my cousin to take Jiajia away." ”

Although she was flustered, she thought very thoughtfully for Ye Zhiran. Jiajia's facial features and demeanor are very similar to him, if the father and son stand together, anyone can understand the relationship between them at a glance, so the two must be separated. In this way, the average person will not think about this relationship. Wearing sunglasses and using Zhang Dabin as a cover, people who are not familiar with him will not be able to guess his identity, and most of them will think that this is Zhang Dabin's friend or driver.

"Got it, I'll come with Dabin."

"Well, let Dabin cover for you."

Ma Yanli calculated the time and invited all the relatives waiting in the room out, saying that she wanted to let her mother be quiet for a while.

After a while, Zhang Dabin walked in front, and Ye Zhiran, who was wearing sunglasses, bowed his head slightly and followed behind, and came to Ma Yanli's house. After entering the house, Zhang Dabin deliberately did not greet the relatives in the house, and walked in with a cold face.

Seeing them arrive, Ma Yanli opened the door, invited the two of them in, and then asked Zhang Dabin to guard the door.

Inside the house. Ye Zhiran silently took off his sunglasses and glanced at Ma Yanli, who was haggard with a smile. Ma Yanli reached out and took his hand and walked to the bed.

The old man on the bed was already skinny, and he didn't have the appearance that Ye Zhiran had in his impression at all.

However, when the old man saw Ye Zhi, his originally dull eyes suddenly lit up. When Ma Yanli gave birth in HK, she once saw Ye Zhiran. At that time, Ye Zhiran claimed to be Ma Yanli's uncle, and the old man had a deep memory because he had only seen such a member of his son-in-law's family.

At this time, she somewhat understood that this person should be Jiajia's biological father, and looked at Ye Zhiran without blinking.

Ma Yanli whispered sadly: "Mom, he is Jiajia's father." ”

The old man had actually reached the point where the lamp oil was about to run out, and when she heard Ma Yanli's introduction, she had not spoken for a long time, and a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye, and she suddenly spoke, and said intermittently: "We have met......"

Ye Zhiran nodded and said in a low voice: "Yes, when Yanli gave birth, I went to the hospital to see her and saw my aunt. ”

The old man's face twitched, and he wanted to show a smile, but because of his emaciation, only skin and bones remained, and his muscles had all atrophied, and his smiling face could no longer be displayed. She said with difficulty: "Yanli's life is not good, don't look at her now that she is rich, in fact, she is very weak in her heart and is easy to be bullied, you have to take care of her more in the future." ”

Ma Yanli reached out to hold her mother's hand and opened her mouth, but she desperately held back her crying and didn't dare to ......

"Can you tell me, are you really British?" The old man has always had these questions in his heart, and if he doesn't ask them clearly at this time, he will probably have no chance in this life.

"No, I was born in Guangbei City, and I met Yanli in Changjia."

"Huh? That's right. So it's fake to say that Yanli married an Englishman? ”

Ye Zhiran nodded and said, "Fake." ”

When he returned to the light, the old man's thinking became extremely clear, but he was already struggling to speak, and asked intermittently: "So, you have another wife?" ”

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the reason for Ma Yanli's fake marriage.

Ye Zhiran naturally wouldn't deceive the old man at this time, nodded, and said, "Yes, my lover, Yanli also knows you." ”

The old man suddenly realized and said, "...... I know, you are the youngest son of Ye Ruiguan who is a big official, your name is Ye Zhiran, right? ”

Ma Yanli held her mother's hand, but she didn't dare to let go, looking at her mother who was running out of lamp oil more and more, lest she let go as soon as she let go.

"Yes, I'm Ye Zhiran."

"In this way, I am also relieved. I should have thought a long time ago, how could Yanli have such great ability and make so much money? With you behind her, you can all explain. In this way, I am also relieved...... When I was a child, when I told Yanli's fortune, the fortune teller said that Yanli's marriage was not going well, and if she got married, she would divorce after no more than five years in each marriage. It's okay for you to be like this, with Jiajia, it will be a long time if you don't get married......"

Ma Yanli burst into tears, but she didn't dare to make a sound, and covered her mouth tightly with her other hand.

After a few breaths, the old man said again, "...... Can you call me Mommy? ”

Ye Zhiran's throat was stiff, and he shouted in a low voice: "Mom, don't worry, I won't leave Yanli and Jiajia alone, I will take care of her." ”

The old man's eyes lit up again, and then gradually faded away, and he muttered: "Yanli, mom is tired, she wants to sleep, you send your son-in-law out." ”

…… Close your eyes slowly.

The moment the old man closed his eyes, Ma Yanli finally couldn't help but fall on her bed, and suddenly cried out, but it was a miserable and miserable cry: "Mom-".

The people outside the house heard this, realized that something was wrong, and pushed the doors in one by one. Zhang Dabin hurriedly walked in front of Ye Zhiran and blocked his sight.

Ye Zhiran put on sunglasses because of the redness of his eyes.

Fortunately, the people who came in outside were so focused on the old man that they couldn't care about who the stranger in the house was. (To be continued......)
