Chapter Forty-Nine: Not Because Things Are Valuable
Huang Juan took Hongguo's hand, tears crackled down, and said for a long time, child, you also know the past between me and your father, I am not as good as your mother, compared with your mother, she is happy, although she is a little early.
Although I am alive, my heart is completely hollowed out, I don't treat you as an outsider, since the day I met you, I have treated you as my biological daughter.
That day, I said at the grave of your parents to reassure them that I will definitely take care of you, and today I came over to fulfill my promise.
If a girl wants to get married, her mother's family will deliver it, and I will prepare something for you instead of your mother, I don't know if you like it or not.
Huang Juan said and took out three boxes from her bag, all of which were very delicate wooden boxes with gold-painted decorations. It's so beautiful, and I guess this box alone is worth a lot of money.
Huang Juan opened one of the boxes, and inside was the padding of the yellow duan, and a bead the size of a pigeon's egg emitted a soft glow.
Mao 18 couldn't tell the material of the beads, but it felt like it should be a good thing.
The beads are inlaid with gold, and it is a peony flower, and there is no gap in the beads that are tightly attached.
There is a flower stalk at the end of the golden peony flower, a small hole is drilled into it, and a red silk thread passes through the middle, and a bow is tied very casually.
Although the big fat man is well-informed, he doesn't know what it is.
Huang Juan said. This thing is said to be a night pearl in the Tang Dynasty.
This pearl of the night is not one, but eighteen, it turned out to be something inlaid on the princess's tiara, this one is the largest one, I don't know what year, the ancient tomb was stolen, the thing was damaged, this bead fell off, so that a skilled craftsman made such a thing.
I also asked for a lot of money from someone else, and I will give it to you today as a dowry. I hope you will be happy like a princess for the rest of your life.
After Huang Juan finished speaking, Hongguo actually felt a little moist in her eyes, not because of how valuable this thing was, but because she felt a kind of mother's feelings from Huang Juan.
Huang Juan opened the other two boxes, she didn't pay attention to what Hongguo said, she looked at Huang Juan blankly, as if she threw herself into his arms and cried, she couldn't tell why she was crying, she just couldn't help it.
He hasn't seen his mother since he was a child, and for many years he has fantasized about how good it would be to have such a woman who loves him like his mother, and now there is such a woman standing in front of him, and Hongguo actually called her Mom.
Everyone was surprised, even the big fat man didn't expect Huang Juan to give such a valuable gift as Hongguo.
Huang Juan herself knew that she not only liked the child in front of her, but also because she was Wang Mo's daughter, she did it herself, and Wang Mo was able to close her eyes under Jiuquan.
Hongguo came out of the chaos of thoughts, his hot mind began to become sober, looked at the thing on the table and said, I'm sorry, I can't ask for this thing.
Huang Juan was surprised, this is something that others dream of, but this child doesn't want it.
Huang Juan asked why.
Hongguo said, I don't like to ask for other people's things, although I don't have money, but I have the dignity of a human being. After so many years with my father, I didn't learn anything else, but this is something he inherited to me, and I can't change it.
Huang Juan was a little frustrated, and said, I am your mother's family, and now that your father is gone, these are the things I can do instead of him, I think, your father doesn't want his daughter to marry without any dowry.
The big fat man came out to play a round and said, Hongguo, you should keep this thing, Huang Juan is not an outsider, let them solve the grievances of the previous generation, why do you have to worry at such a young age.
Hongguo shook his head and said, if I want it, it means that I have given in, and I believe that one day I will have these things myself.
Huang Juan nodded and said, child, good, I like you.
The big fat man saw that Huang Juan no longer insisted, so he said, the wine and food are almost cold, hurry up and eat.
Hongguo is quite able to drink on weekdays, but today I don't know if it's nothing, and I got drunk without drinking much.
When she was sent home, it was Mao Eighteen who picked up the red fruit.
Mao Eighteen was just about to get into the car, but Huang Juan stopped him and said, Eighteen, you wait a minute.
Mao 18 said, you have something.
Huang Juan handed the few things and a bank card to Mao Shiba.
Mao 18 said, no, I can't ask for it, Hongguo will be unhappy when he wakes up.
Huang Juan said, you also know everything here, I hope you can understand my feelings.
Mao Eighteen was very embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
Huang Juan said that if I waited until I died, went to another world, and saw Wang Mo, he asked me how his daughter was, and I couldn't explain it to him.
Mao 18 nodded and said, Okay, I took the things, thank you.
Huang Juan burst into tears and drove away.
The next morning, Mao Shibai didn't call anyone and got on the train directly with Hongguo.
Mao 18 doesn't like to say goodbye, that kind of scene will make people feel very worried.
After Chang Wanlin raised for a few days, he felt that the injuries on his body were no longer serious, so he got up in the morning and said goodbye to Lao Wangtou, saying, I'm leaving, I'll put this thing here for you, you take it away for me, unless I come over, the rest of the people won't give it.
The old king saw that Chang Wanlin was leaving, and he was a little reluctant, and he was a little tearful.
Chang Wanlin has been making a lot of noise here these days, and he doesn't feel lonely anymore, he is used to it, if he leaves and there is only himself left, I don't know if Mrs. Li can come over.
Chang Wanlin hugged the old man and said, I will come back, and when I come back, I will recognize you as my godfather and let you follow me to enjoy happiness.
The old man stood at the door, and the big yellow dog rubbed against Chang Wanlin's legs, which made Chang Wanlin's heart feel sour for a while.
In the end, he walked out ruthlessly.
The sun was shining, the sky was cloudless and the weather was very nice.
Because he didn't have a car, Chang Wanlin walked several miles before hiring a taxi and told the driver that he was in the market.
The driver is none other than Tang Mengmeng, with long eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a ponytail.
saw Chang Wanlin chatting with Chang Wanlin as soon as he got in the car.
Ask Chang Wanlin what he does.
Chang Wanlin said, driving.
Tang Mengmeng said, yo, the two of us are still walking together, where did you come back from, or is your home here.
Chang Wanlin didn't speak.
Tang Mengmeng said again, if you have encountered any grievances, just say it. I'm also aggrieved all day long, fucking grass, Jin Wanda robbed all the taxis in our house, and this one is left, and I fucking come to find fault for three days and two ends, but don't you have to live.
Chang Wanlin heard that she knew Jin Wanda, so he asked if Jin Wanda had anything to do recently.
