Because of the arrival of my grandmother, it was the dead of night, but the villa was very lively.

Aunt Li had already packed out a guest room for the elderly to live in in the afternoon.

Bai Xiao felt that the old man was old and weak, and a thin quilt was not enough, so he went to Aunt Li again and wanted a blanket to press on the quilt.

Yu Jingxi pulled the little cotton drags and followed behind Bai Xiao, and when she heard her talking to Aunt Li, she immediately turned around and ran into her small bedroom.

When I came out again, I hugged a ball in my little arm, and it was a children's blanket with a joyful pattern.

But when he diligently brought the small blanket to the guest room, Aunt Li and Bai Xiao had already taken a big blanket and covered it with the quilt!

Bai Xiao saw him: "Don't sleep yet?" ”

The little guy is dressed in a set of coral velvet cartoon pajamas with a crumpled blanket in his hand.

Bai Xiao glanced at the blanket on the bed, and immediately understood the little guy's kindness, and went over and touched his head: "Is this for grandma?" ”

Yu Jingxi snorted, glanced at Bai Xiao, and said disappreciably: "I accidentally spilled water just now and took it out to dry." ”

Bai Xiao pinched his cheek: "Is it the moon?" ”

"......" Yu Jingxi couldn't say Bai Xiao, holding the blanket and turning around to shake back to his bedroom.

Bai Xiao hugged him, kissed his face heavily, and the little guy wiped it with shame: "I just washed my face, and now I have to wash it again!" ”

"Xie Lu, thank you Jingxi." Bai Xiao looked at the little guy solemnly.

Yu Jingxi listened to her sweet words, the disappointment in her heart turned into pride, she snorted tuggingly, and then swaggered back to the bedroom with the blanket.

Bai Xiao stood up and looked at the back of the little guy leaving with a smile, and Aunt Li said on the side: "The little master has really changed a lot. ”

"Really?" Bai Xiao gave the pillow core and pillowcase.

Aunt Li smiled with satisfaction: "Of course, Mr. Bai, you don't know what to do, in the past, the little young master would never lend his things to others, if anyone used his things privately without his consent, he would definitely make a big fuss, even if the third young master was no exception." ”

The temper of this Yu family man seems to be big, Yu Zhanming, Yu Shaoting, Yu Jingxi, except for Yu Zhongxiao, he is quite gentle.

"When I was in Las Vegas, one day a neighbor child came to play, and the little young master's airplane model was taken to leave, and the little young master turned his face on the spot, and pushed the family down and knocked his head swollen.

"And then?" Bai Xiao missed Jingxi's childhood, and he is not without regrets about it.

Later, the third young master dragged the little young master out of the door, saying that he would stay outside if he didn't go to apologize, and after saying that, the third young man closed the door and went upstairs, but an hour passed, the little young master was stunned and didn't knock on the door, how cold it was at that time, how could a four-year-old child stand it? When I secretly opened the door, the little young master sat on the steps and held the model plane, his body was frozen, I didn't listen to him when he entered the house, and the third young man personally dragged him into the house. ”

Aunt Li sighed and watched Bai Xiao's gaze soften: "Teacher Bai, I have taken care of Jing Xi for so many years, and I have never seen him so affectionate to women other than the old lady, I think that although he hasn't called you mom yet, in this heart, I'm afraid he has already recognized you." ”

Bai Xiao's nose was sour when he heard this, and he smiled faintly, his voice a little low: "I know the way." ”

——————————

Passing by Mrs. Yu's room, the door was open, and her grandmother was inside, Bai Xiao couldn't really hear what they were saying, but the atmosphere inside was not bad.

Bai Xiao went to the study, the door was open, the light was not turned on, Yu Shaoting was not there, she turned back to the master bedroom.

As soon as he walked to the door, Bai Xiao heard Yu Jingxi's voice from the master bedroom: "Dad, why is your quilt so soft?" ”

“……”

"The bed too, much more comfortable than mine."

The door was not closed, and Bai Xiao saw the little guy rolling around on the bed, wrapped in a quilt, with a small mouth and a pair of bare feet.

Yu Shaoting sat at the head of the bed, took a shower, wore a dark blue mercerized nightgown, and put a notebook on the leg of the quilt, he moved the office from the study to the bedroom today, he lit a cigarette and bit it to his mouth, and he was still holding a few pieces of paper in his hand to read, and he didn't shake off Yu Jingxi, who was making noise around him.

Bai Xiao occasionally couldn't figure out Yu Shaoting, he would hide from her and go to Liyang to pick up his grandmother to surprise her, but after taking it, he behaved very calmly, taking care of himself going upstairs to take a shower and work, instead of surrounding his grandmother to courte, and if he was someone else, he would think that he looked down on her relatives.

At noon today, he called himself, did he want to take her to see his grandmother who had just come from Liyang?

Yu Jingxi was tired of rolling on the bed, leaned over to Yu Shaoting's notebook, stretched out his little finger to press the keyboard, but was reprimanded: "What are you touching?" “

"I'm going to play a game."

Yu Shaoting pushed away his little head: "What time is it, go back to the room and sleep." ”

Yu Jingxi's dark eyes rolled around, curled up in the quilt, and sat side by side with Yu Shaoting: "I want to sleep here tonight." ”

Yu Shaoting took the cigarette from his mouth, raised his eyes and noticed Bai Xiao at the door, the hand that was originally going to lift the quilt on Yu Jingxi's body was changed to caress Yu Jingxi's head, his eyes fell on the computer screen again, and he said: "This quilt is not enough for three people to cover ......"

"Then I'll go and bring my quilt." Yu Jingxi got out of bed as he spoke, put on a cotton slip and ran out excitedly.

As soon as the door was opened, Bai Xiao stood at the door, and the little guy ignored her and went directly into his small room.

There was a faint smell of smoke in the master bedroom, and it was not pleasant to smell it alone.

Bai Xiao walked in, just in time to see him extinguishing a cigarette butt, the bedside and bed were full of messy papers, plus Yu Jingxi's tumbling just now, it was even more messy, and he walked over to help him tidy up, but heard him say, "Don't move, I won't find it later." ”

"How do you sleep like this?" Bai Xiao half-knelt beside the bed and looked at the clock on the wall: "What time is it?" ”

Yu Shaoting took out another cigarette and lit it, Bai Xiao directly grabbed the lighter, and didn't let him, he looked up at her, as if he was not satisfied with her move.

"No more smoking after dinner from now on." Shirahiro noticed that there were more than one or two cigarette butts in the ashtray.

"What do you want me to do if I don't smoke?"

Bai Xiao thought of the way to quit smoking that he had heard in the company: "You can chew gum or eat other snacks." ”

Yu Shaoting let out a soft belly smile.

Bai Xiao felt that he was laughing at his "childishness", so he pretended to be angry and glared at him, got up from the bed, took a change of pajamas and went to the bathroom.

After a simple wash, I came out to find that the person on the bed was no longer there, and the papers that had been piled up haphazardly were gone.

Yu Shaoting was sitting on the sofa looking at the laptop screen, the papers were all spread on the coffee table, and occasionally he picked up one and looked at it, and then put it down.

Bai Xiao stood at the door of the bathroom, quietly looking at his focused appearance, the glass window behind him opened a crack, the smell of smoke in the room had dissipated a lot, her eyes fell on him, the fabric of the nightgown was very close, the muscles of the chest and arms were relaxed, thin and full of strength.

Caught off guard, the man suddenly raised his head, Bai Xiao's gaze couldn't dodge, and he happened to be caught by him.

Her cheeks flushed, she rolled her eyes, walked out stupidly, and muttered, "Where did the lotion go in the travel pack?" Why didn't you see it. ”

The man behind him was silent, and Bai Xiao found his skin care products next to the TV.

She turned around as she poured the toner into her palm and said, "I want to sleep with my grandmother tonight." ”

Yu Shaoting looked over, his eyes were very straight, but he didn't talk.

"I have a lot to say to my grandmother." Bai Xiao was a little twisted, and the situation was like a primary school student taking leave with a strict homeroom teacher.

Yu Shaoting bowed his head and continued to work: "There is time to say during the day. ”

Bai Xiao twisted his eyebrows: "That's different." ”

"What's the difference?" He looked up at her again.

"The atmosphere, the atmosphere is different."

“……”

——————————

Bai Xiao lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep with his eyes closed, and had to sigh secretly that he was terrible to get used to.

Grandma, who was originally breathing carefully and asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, turned her head to look at Bai Xiao who was moving next to her, and smiled: "If you really can't sleep, go back." ”

Seeing through his mind by the old man, Bai Xiao folded the quilt in embarrassment, refusing to admit it: "I drank a cup of coffee at night, refreshing." ”

Grandma's cheeks turned red when she saw her lying: "I can't sleep if you move around like this, I'm old, but I can't stand your toss like this." ”

"I said I would sleep with you tonight and not go back." Bai Xiao hugged the old man, just like when he was a child.

Grandma patted her arm: "It's all the mothers of the children, why are they still the same as if they haven't grown up." ”

"By the way, Shaoting sleeps with Jingxi at night, the child sleeps differently, he is a big man, I don't know if he will wake up at night to cover the child with a quilt."

Bai Xiao said that Yu Jingxi slept alone when he was very young, and the old man was relieved.

After a while, Bai Xiao asked his grandmother why she didn't call herself before she came, and the old man smiled and said with emotion: "I was also startled, a young man drove to the door of the house, saying that Mr. Yu asked him to pick up people, and he was in too much of a hurry, so he forgot to notify you." ”

"Why, didn't Shaoting tell you that I was coming?" Grandma was surprised.

Bai Xiao shook his head, his mouth was tight, and no matter how much she inquired about what she didn't want to say, it was in vain.

Grandma smiled: "That may be that he wants to surprise you." ”

The grandfather and grandson chatted for a while, and the grandmother suddenly said, "Shaoting and his mother told me a lot just now. After Qi You's incident, I have been thinking for a while that the words handed down by my ancestors are really right, the door is not right, and no matter how much Lang has a concubine, it will not last long. ”

"Before Shaoting took you away, he promised me that he would not let you be wronged one day."

Bai Xiao couldn't imagine Yu Shaoting saying such emotional words, and his face was slightly hot: "You trusted him so much at that time?" ”

"Hehe, this looks at people, it's not that they won't look away after a long time, it's mainly the eyes of people, when he said this to me at the time, his eyes were very positive, just at that glance, I am sure, no matter what happens in the future, he can at least protect you."

Bai Xiao's eyes were red, and he didn't know what to say.

"Shaoting's mother is a very good person, in such a family, but she doesn't look at people with her nostrils, which is already commendable." Grandma sighed, inevitably thought of the Pei family's affairs, and shook Bai Xiao's hand: "Your mother's business, grandma doesn't know where to start." ”

"Your mother went to college in another place, and she only goes home for a few days a year, and I don't know a lot of things with your grandfather. Listening to what Shaoting's mother said just now, I thought of something. Your mother just came home on her first Chinese New Year's Eve in college, and she mentioned to me that she had found a military partner. ”

Grandma paused, and then said faintly: "If my guess is correct, that person should be Shao Ting's brother." ”

Bai Xiao heard it in a fog, if Su Manrong and Yu Zhengdong were first lovers, then what happened to her?

"Later, your mother suddenly went home when she was in school, locked herself in the house and cried, and didn't say what happened, stayed for a few days and then went north to go back to school, after more than half a year, she suddenly wrote that she wanted to get married, she was still in college at that time, of course I didn't agree with your grandfather."

"Who knew that your mother hadn't heard from her for more than half a year, and you were thinking about whether to go to school to find her, so she came back with you......"

Speaking of the past, bitterness also came to my heart one after another.

At that time, it was not as open as it is now, and having children out of wedlock could drown you with a single spittle.

Bai Xiao knew a few things, his grandfather was originally a cadre in the village, but he lost his job because of his mother's affairs, and the family's reputation was also ruined.

This is also the reason why Bai Qiuhua and Wu Xiumei hate her so much.

When she was a child, she still vaguely remembered that Wu Xiumei scolded her, if it weren't for her and her mother, when her grandfather was old, Bai Qiuhua would probably take her grandfather's place, and if she was lucky, she could rise step by step, although Bai Xiao felt that Bai Qiuhua didn't have this ability, but it was a hope after all.

But because of Su Manrong's unmarried child, Bai Qiuhua didn't even touch the edge of this hope, and he had already missed it.

Bai Xiao hugged her grandmother tightly, and her voice was a little hoarse: "She hasn't come back all these years, have you ever blamed her?" ”

"She has things she doesn't want to face, and maybe seeing us will touch on those bad memories." The old man's wrinkled hand like an old tree bark touched Bai Xiao's face and sighed: "Pity you, if you know that she is still alive and well, grandma will definitely find a way to send you to her." ”

Then you won't have to suffer so many sins......

Bai Xiao shook his head: "I never felt that I had a hard life, if I changed my growth environment, maybe, it would not be Bai Xiao." ”

The old man glared at her and feigned displeasure: "That's better than suffering with us." ”

"Zifei knows the joy of fish." Bai Xiao's head rested on her grandmother's shoulder: "At least, grandpa and you have always loved me, you have to think about it, if you really sent me to her, would you still have such a cute and smart great-grandson?" ”

Grandma laughed and scolded: "At this time, you are still playing tricks with me!" ”

The grandparents and grandchildren talked and laughed a few more words, and then turned off the lights and rested, Bai Xiao nested in the quilt, thinking about his grandmother's words, but he couldn't figure out a clue.

Her father......

——————————

The next morning, Bai Xiao woke up, and her grandmother had already gotten up.

When I came out of the guest room, I met Yu Jingxi who came out of the master bedroom, holding her quilt and pillow, her little face stinky.

As he walked, he turned his head and hummed into the bedroom: "I'm too lazy to sleep with you, it's not uncommon, I don't like it!" ”

The little guy looked angry, and he didn't even see Bai Xiao, and the corner of the quilt fell from his little arm, and dragged all the way back to the small bedroom.

Bai Xiao didn't know what happened to the father and son, and entered the master bedroom with curiosity, but there was no one on the bed.

Yu Shaoting came out of the locker room and wore a formal suit, but his complexion was not very good, and he coughed twice, and his voice was a little hoarse.

Bai Xiao was surprised: "You have a cold?" ”

Yu Shaoting glanced at her at the end of his eyes, then passed her, took the notebook and documents, and went straight out.

I don't know if it's a hallucination, Bai Xiao seems to see resentment in his eyes......

——————————

Bai Xiao changed her clothes and went downstairs, Yu Shaoting sat in the dining room with her back to her, and Yu Jingxi was also there, sitting far away from Yu Shaoting, as if angry.

Breakfast was made by my grandmother, Aunt Li started to fight, and Mrs. Yu watched with great interest.

Grandma made Liyang's characteristic breakfast.

Mrs. Yu sat down and said, "How embarrassing, my grandmother asked you to cook on the first day she came......

"I'm used to this, if you don't let me do it, I'm uncomfortable." Grandma smiled and said that the atmosphere in the restaurant was very harmonious.

Yu Jingxi asked Driver Liang to send him to school after breakfast, but it was rare that he didn't have to let Yu Shaoting and Bai Xiao send it, and Mrs. Yu followed without worry.

Aunt Li packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Grandma suddenly said to Bai Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, my stomach is a little uncomfortable, you go buy me some diet tablets." ”

Bai Xiao nodded, there was a big pharmacy next to the Qinyuan community.

Yu Shaoting sat in the restaurant and didn't leave, glanced at Bai Xiao, and didn't say anything until she took the money and disappeared at the door of the villa.

The old man made sure that Bai Xiao had gone away, so he said to Yu Shaoting with a smile: "It's hard for you to wait all the time." ”

With Yu Shaoting's life experience, how could he not see that his grandmother had something to say to himself, he got up and went to the kitchen to make a pot of tea, took a clean teacup and put it in front of his grandmother, poured a cup of hot tea, poured himself a cup, and then sat back in his original position.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?" When Yu Shaoting went downstairs, she noticed that his voice was wrong, and it was estimated that he had a cold.

Yu Shaoting didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Grandma sighed and looked at him kindly: "My granddaughter is sometimes willful, I'm afraid you will have to take care of it more in the future." ”

Something similar, the old man also said it to him, but at that time, he was a fake Pei Qiyou.

Listening to this now, the mood is naturally different.

The old man took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket, wrapped it tightly, and put it on the dining table and slowly opened it.

"This is the dowry that her grandfather prepared for Xiaoxiao when he was alive, and there were originally a few things that were seen and stolen by her uncle, and these two things were discovered by me in time and quietly hidden." In the handkerchief, there are two pieces of jewelry, which can be regarded as antiques when you look at them.

Yu Shaoting drank tea for a while, and his eyes stayed on the jewelry.

Grandma: "You also know the conditions of our family, and you can't get the dowry of millions from those big families." I don't hide some things from you, and I guess I can't hide them from you, these two things, I wanted to give them when Xiaoxiao and Qi You first got married, but I never had the chance. ”

Yu Shaoting didn't answer.

"Some things may be predestined, and I only know now, it's not that I can't find an opportunity at that time, but it's not suitable."

The old man sighed and said, "These two pieces of jewelry are not worth much money if you keep them, they should be regarded as a formality." ”

Yu Shaoting's hand clenched the teacup, stared at the jewelry with his eyes down, and said slowly in a very calm tone: "You can put these away." ”

The old man gently pushed the jewelry to him: "If you don't accept it, I'm afraid I won't feel at ease even if I die." ”

"I can't live for a few years, my only wish is to see my hard-working granddaughter can have a good home, you can see her, it is her blessing, the two are not easy to live together, there is an old saying that a hundred years can be repaired to cross the same boat, and a thousand years to sleep together. She is still young and still doesn't understand a lot of things, and if she does something wrong, I hope you can teach her well......"

Bai Xiao stood at the door of the villa, listening to the serious voice of his grandmother inside, and warm water droplets dripped on the medicine box in his hand.

Last time, when she heard her grandmother pleading Yu Shaoting as Pei Qiyou outside the ward, she was sad; This time, it was a different emotion.

She heard Yu Shaoting answer, it was very simple, there was only one word: "Okay." ”
