Chapter 24: The Sail That Drifts Away (9)

When she went downstairs, she walked very steadily, but for some reason she still stumbled under her feet, and she almost fell. She clung to the railing and sat down on the stairs, and Zhang's mother hurriedly asked her how she was. She rose silently. This time she lifted her skirt and ran down the stairs...... She ran fast. The car outside the courtyard gate was already waiting for her. These days, the whole house is always so well prepared, for fear that there will be a chance that it will not be in time. But she got into the car and asked Uncle Zhang to hurry up and faster, but there was a thought in her heart, it should be too late to catch up no matter what. Her eyes blurred, and she held back her tears.

Still, she was a little confused when she got out of the car. There were several cars parked in front of the door, and it seemed that they had arrived temporarily, and there were people getting out of the cars, and she didn't care to see who it was. It seemed that someone was calling her, and some chaotic voices echoed in her ears, and she lowered her head and hurried away.

After walking two steps, he stopped, and the servant at the gate of the courtyard was calling Grandma Qi.

She glanced at them, and suddenly it was black—the black-clad servant was already dressed in a white blouse, and there were white lanterns piled up in front of him, and a huge plaque of white chrysanthemums was about to be erected—and she ran in without saying a word. Along the way, there were people flashing constantly, all in a hurry. The plaque of the main house has been put on the white silk. As she stood down, someone passed by her and almost knocked her down, but he ignored her, but ran up the steps faster than her, crying and calling for his father as he ran...... She didn't seem to recognize such a young woman, and she couldn't imagine who it would be. But she also wanted to run faster, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead, and she couldn't go fast. She walked up the steps, and when she looked up again, she saw a tall man standing directly in front of her—he was still wearing a dark gray military uniform, and even in the miserable white figures that came and went, his seemingly calm countenance gave her a little hope in her heart, which was just another false alarm that had happened several times these days...... She didn't take a single step, and fell down the stone steps, her hands pressed against the cold ground and her head looked up at him.

He came over and pulled her up.

She looked him in the eye and he nodded.

Only then did she hear the cry. The louder and louder cries made her understand that what was echoing in her ears was crying, but she didn't hear it clearly...... She was helped into the house by him, and saw the woman on her knees crying bitterly...... That's Tao Eryi.

Her heart hurt so much that she wanted to cry like that, but she couldn't...... Only then did she know that the grief in her heart for the old man who had passed away was no less than that of any of his children.

A housekeeper came over to remind her that Grandma Qishao, please go over and change her clothes.

She quietly got up and went to the wing room to change her mourning clothes.

Dressed in black with a white shirt and linen, she looked in the mirror at her own white face...... She heard a noise, and Tao Xiang came in.

She looked out the door, and almost instantly, it was raining heavily.

Tao Xiang took off his military uniform.

Jing Yi stood silently behind him, watching him put on his filial piety clothes. The black robe made him look like a thick ink at this time, and his grief was hidden in the ink.

He stood there for a long time without moving.

She walked over and saw that the buttons under his chin were not fastened.

She raised her hand to tie it, and then she tied his white shirt and linen cloth to him. Mourning clothes were neatly tied to him layer by layer...... She looked at him, but before she could see his face, tears welled up in her eyes.

He hesitated for a moment before he raised his hand and gently stroked her cheek and said, "Don't cry." My father left peacefully, and he had no regrets. ”

She was still holding the hemp rope around his waist in her hand, trying to tie it into a strong buckle, but her hand was trembling non-stop, and she couldn't tie it. Tao Xiang shook her hand and calmed her down.

Someone is knocking on the door, calling the Seventh Young Master, the eldest young master, the second young master, and the eldest aunt are waiting for you.

She let go, knowing that there was a lot of work for him to do.

I tidied up his clothes again before letting him out.

When Tao Xiang walked to the door, his footsteps stopped, as if he wanted to turn back, but he didn't.

When I opened the door of room 61, in the courtyard outside, it was pouring rain, and the people who were still kneeling on the ground were still kneeling......

……

Tao Shengchuan's death shocked all parties. Although the funeral was simple in accordance with his will, the funeral was still unprecedented, with his status and reputation during his lifetime.

Cheng Jingyi saw her father Cheng Shiyun again, and she was actually on top of her father-in-law's mourning hall.

Cheng Shiyun arrived with Kong Zhixiao and others. He saw that Jingyi, the daughter of the Tao family relatives who returned the gift, was not able to meet alone. There are many people from all walks of life who come to Taofu to mourn, and even among them, many dignitaries who live in seclusion have come to the northwest thousands of miles away. There are countless people who cannot go to the scene in person and send commissioners to come to mourn. The Tao brothers ushered in the send-off, and they were a little lacking in skills. Kong Zhixiao sighed when he left the Tao family to go to the place where he stayed, and it was rare for the king of the northwest to mourn behind him. This shows the prestige and status of the Tao family today. Kong Zhixiao, Kim Changji, and others have all experienced the difficult mediation not long ago, and their respect for the Tao family's father and son is heartfelt.

"Look at the brother of the herd, in the future, it will inevitably be 'the young phoenix is clear from the old phoenix'." Kong Zhixiao said.

Cheng Shiyun did not praise or disparage.

They waited until Tao Shengchuan for the funeral before leaving the northwest and returning to Nanjing.

Cheng Shiyun finally met Tao Xiang and Jingyi before leaving. Although in a hurry, I also visited my infant granddaughter. Jingyi originally didn't have any hope of seeing her father again. When I saw my father and daughter together, I couldn't help but feel a little strange in my heart. This is completely different from the feeling of seeing the third brother.

The next day, Tao Xiang was going to come to the airport to bid farewell to the VIPs. An envoy came with his wife, and Tao Xiang asked Jingyi to accompany him to see him off. When Jingyi saw her father, Uncle Kong and the others, she knew the reason why Tao Xiang insisted on her coming. It's not just because she wants to send off the British and French envoys, I'm afraid I also want her to see off her father. She looked at her father from afar. Lin Zhixi, who was standing behind her father, saw her first and reminded her father. At such a distance, her father's gaze seemed to have weight when he looked at her.

But Jingyi didn't say a few words to her father, but Tao Xiang thoughtfully and decently sent Cheng Shiyun and others to the plane in person. Jingyi stood farther away, and Tao Xiang and his father, who was the last to board the plane, talked for a long time under the gangway. She didn't know what they were talking about, and they didn't look at her. Tao Xiang waited for Cheng Shiyun to enter the cabin before waving his hand. His arms were wrapped in black veil, which was extremely eye-catching......

Jingyi accompanied Tao Xiang to send off the last plane, and asked him in the car if the VIP had almost sent it.

Tao Xiang thought about it and said that I don't need to send it in person.

Jing Yi looked at the gray sky from the car window, and the last plane had just taken off...... When she turned her head to look at Tao Xiang again, she found that he was already asleep.

Because he can't shave and get a haircut these days, Tao Xiang looks particularly haggard. In the long hair, the silver threads are even more eye-catching. He was still in the throes of losing his father, ignoring everything and no one would force him, but he hardly had a moment of rest.

She originally wanted to say something to him at this time, but seeing his appearance, she didn't bother him anymore, but asked the driver to drive the car more slowly.

It's a long way home from the airport, so today is a bit more time-consuming.

When she got home, she parked the car at the gate of Langyuan. Neither the driver nor Li Dalong made a sound. Tao Xiang didn't wake up right away.

Jingyi sat in the car, looking at the gray alleys outside in the gloomy weather...... The door of Langyuan was open, and the white lanterns were still hung. There is no wind, everything is still. Until the white lion rushed out of the yard and was about to pounce and bang on the car door...... Jing Yi came down and drank the white lion. Li Dalong followed. None of them slammed the car door shut, but Tao Xiang still woke up.

He sat in the car for a while and told her to go ahead.

Jingyi understood that he was not worried about his grandmother, but she was more worried about her daughter at this time, so she went in first......

It was too late for Tao Xiang to come back.

Zhang's mother came out first and asked him if he had dinner.

He said no, turned around and went into the restaurant, first went to the wine cabinet and got a bottle of whiskey.

Mother Zhang said behind him that the young grandmother also said that she had no appetite, so she prepared some porridge and side dishes, and asked the young master and the young grandmother to use it later.

He nodded.

In fact, you shouldn't drink on an empty stomach, but no one has an appetite at such a time. His father died, the whole family grieved, and his grandmother, who lost her son in old age, was stronger than he expected. But today, when her father is in the ground, she seems to have been supported to the limit and seen weakness. Seeing him visiting, he was still telling him to rest for a few days, and someone else would take care of those trivial matters. Coming out of Xuanrui Hall, he went to Yanxi Hall and Luo Rui Hall. In the past, when his father was there, every time he stepped into Yanxi Hall, he had to slow down a little while he was still outside the gate. To this day, he still landed on his feet, and at that moment he realized that even if he shouted loudly, he could not hear his father's low and serious response...... He stood in front of the hall for a long time. Looking at the still lit window of his father's study, he was stunned for a long time.

It seems that his father attacked him, and he stood outside the door waiting for his father to dissipate his anger before leaving.

Hearing the eldest sister call him, he looked back.

The eldest sister in filial piety clothes has lost a lot of weight

Getting closer, the eldest sister first told him that Er Yi had arrived in Nanning. The journey was safe, everything was fine at home, and Wen Mo was able to eat, saying that they were all relieved...... He was shocked to realize that when the little sister came back this time, their brother and sister didn't have time to say a few more words.

There are many people in Yanxi Hall, the mother is accompanied by the eldest sister, and the eldest brother and son. Mother asked about Jingyi, and he said he would go back first. His mother looked at him for a while, and said that your father is the most relieved of you, and you are the most relieved...... He understood what his mother meant.

My father spent most of his last days alone with him. He only remembered that he had promised his father a lot of things, but suddenly he couldn't remember any of them......

There is a second brother's family in Luo Ruitang. Everyone else is fine, but the second sister-in-law looks very sad and in good spirits. He asked, but it turned out that the uncle of the Xu family was also seriously ill, and the second sister-in-law was worried. He discussed things with his second brother, and his second sister-in-law sat next to him. He found that even the sneering was wilting...... As soon as my father left, everyone was haggard.

He hadn't eaten much at all these days, and he still didn't feel hungry.

At this point, I want to drink. After he had taken a drink, he poured a second cup when he heard the soft cry of a baby. The movement of his hands froze, and the wine spilled a little outside.

It was a cry, but only that one. He seemed to hear someone coaxing her...... He drank three glasses of wine before he stopped.

Seeing Zhang's mother setting the table, he asked, "How are you doing these days?" ”

"It's good, young master." Zhang's mother said, looking at him, as if she was a little worried. "The young master and the young grandmother have worked hard these days. It's better to take care. Young master, use some, right? ”

Tao Xiang put the wine glass down. The table was full of food, but he didn't have the slightest appetite.

He said, "No." I'll go up and take a look. ”

Zhang Mayuan was a little worried that he was drinking in a hurry, afraid that he would be drunk, and saw that he was walking as usual, so she didn't say anything.

Tao Xiang went upstairs.

The white lion swayed out of the house first, and then the figure flashed, Yue'er said "Is Zhang's mother's porridge okay" appeared at the door, and it was Tao Xiang who came up clearly, she saluted and called out to the seventh young master, turned around and said inward: "Young grandma, the young master is back." ”

There was no response inside.

Tao Xiang waved his hand, and Yue'er went down.

He stepped into the room, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Jing Yi holding his daughter and walking around the room - Nannan's little hands were dancing, she lowered her head, oh, and muttered and touched Nannan's small hands...... It took her a moment to stop and look at him.

She had changed her clothes, but she was still in a black silk shirt, her body was very plain, and her hair was only tied by a hairpin, which looked somewhat familiar, and he came closer, and saw that it was a pair of gardenias...... The girl she was holding was wearing a small jade-colored robe, and she was swinging her chubby hands.

Jingyi just glanced at him, still gently shaking her body and coaxing her daughter.

Tao Xiang walked over, and Jingyi hesitated for a moment before handing over the girl to him. The two of them touched their arms together, and Tao Xiao immediately noticed the tremor on Jing Yi's body.

He turned his face to look at her.

Jing Yi whispered, "She's going to sleep then." ”

Tao Xiao looked down at his daughter leaning on his arms - the little black curly hair had grown and was still soft. He lowered his head again, his chin resting on the top of her hair...... He was still pacing around the room, very slowly. Nan Nan was still very energetic, and he walked silently, waiting for her to get sleepy...... He sat down until he felt tired, his knees aching. Nan Nan was already asleep in his arms, and he gently lifted Nan Nan up......

When Jingyi came back, he saw Tao Xiang leaning on the edge of the bed and falling asleep - Nan Nan was lying on his chest, her small body half slid down, and her little hands were still clutching his shirt...... She walked over and wanted to carry her back to her little bed, thinking about it, but she dismissed the idea.

She still let the girl sleep next to Tao Xiang, and then covered them with a thin blanket before turning around and closing the window.

She quietly turned off the lights one by one, and the bedroom was darkened, so that Nannan and him could sleep more peacefully—although Nannan was small, she had the same habits as him. Sleep doesn't like to have bright lights. She looked at the father and daughter for a moment as she put down the bed net—there may be many more peaceful and warm moments like this. I hope there will be many more, and I will remember it when the time comes......

Jingyi quietly closed the bedroom door and sat down to open the German dictionary.

She has a word to look up...... She never intended to waste what she had learned, and it wasn't too difficult to pick it up again.

When her father came to see her, she thought that when her father saw her alone, he must have something to say to her. Sure enough, my father said Xiao Shi, Nan Nan is still young, I don't agree with your divorce from Mu Zhi. This was the attitude she expected. She didn't force her father's consent, because it seemed impossible. And she didn't want to budge.

She seemed to understand her father's feelings. The more she knew Tao Xiang, the more she understood her father. She thinks that people like her father should appreciate Tao Xiang. So what the father didn't want to lose was a son-in-law like Tao Xiang...... As for whether her father had other considerations, since her father didn't mention it, she didn't want to think about it at all. She didn't know what her father and Tao Xiang talked about when they met, and she didn't plan to ask Tao Xiang about it.

Her father asked her what she planned to do after the divorce.

She told her father that she was going to reapply to study abroad. She didn't elaborate. Time did not allow, and his father's silence meant that he might not have wanted to know more at all.

Her father looked at her and told her that if this was the case, she would not get any help from him.

Fortunately, she didn't expect anything more from her father. The result did not disappoint her or make her particularly sad.

She will raise her daughter and will continue her education. What she hadn't been able to achieve before, she would slowly do the same. Life must be a world away from what it is now, but no matter how difficult it is, she will persevere...... At the end of the day, she had to live for herself.

Time passed quickly, and the first snow of winter fell on May 7.

After returning from the memorial, Jingyi hung a body of snow particles. She took her to the balcony and stood up to see the snow.

It wasn't too cold, and the snow melted quickly when it fell to the ground, despite the heavy fall.

"Oh, this is the first snow you've seen, you know?" Jingyi said softly.

Yue'er said softly: "No, young grandmother, there was a heavy snowfall on that day." When the Seventh Young Master came back that day, he was in a hurry on the road, and he fell in the yard. The young master didn't count if he fell, but he also brought down Adjutant Li, the adjutant of the horse who went to pull him, and fell to the ground with a lot of boxes...... was counted down by the old lady and his wife. ”

Jingyi listened and snorted.

It seems that there is such a thing. The grandmother said that they did not know how to be careful, and that they were carrying a lot of valuables in the box. That's all for her. According to the rules, when a child is born, the mother will receive some gifts to show the respect and reward for the hard work of childbirth. On that day, Nan Nan was dressed up beautifully and carried by Tao Xiang to the ancestral hall to offer incense. Even though she was a girl, everything was solemn...... I don't know where the gifts were, and she didn't care.

"But you didn't see it, did you?" Jingyi smiled, "Isn't it, Nan?" ”

Nan Nan blinked at her, and her little hand stretched out.

Nan Nan is half a year old, and her round little body is getting heavier and heavier. Holding her like this and watching the snow for a while will make her arms sore.

"Sister Qiu Wei is not here today?" Yue'er took an umbrella to hold it and asked.

"That's right. It's snowing today, and it's hard to walk on the road, you go and shake the electricity 61 chapter, or don't let her come. Jingyi instructed Yue'er.

Yue'er agreed to go in, and came out after a while, saying, "Young grandma, Sister Qiuwei didn't know what kind of illness she had, so she got up early and fainted at home and was sent to the hospital." ”

"In which hospital?" Jingyi was stunned and hurriedly hugged Nannan back to the house.

Yue'er said that the lady who passed the message only said that she was in the provincial hospital, and did not say anything.

Jingyi shook the electricity again and passed 61 words. The person who answered the call 61 was still Qiu Wei's neighbor Mrs. Ye. Mrs. Ye only knew that Qiu Wei was sent to the hospital this morning, and she didn't know what was going on at the moment. Jingyi put aside the 61 words and said, "I have to go over and have a look." Atul is not at home, and this girl must not want me to worry and refuse to let anyone tell me. ”

Jingyi asked Zhang's mother to take a good look at Nannan, and asked Uncle Zhang to pick her up.

Before going out, she specially went to Mrs. Tao to say goodbye, after all, she was in the midst of filial piety. Mrs. Tao was listening to Ha Deguang and several big housekeepers report on affairs, and Er An was accompanying her. Mrs. Tao was a little lazy, and after listening to what Jingyi said, she only nodded to indicate that she knew and allowed her to go out. However, Er'an was a little worried, saying that the weather outside was not good and asked her to pay more attention. As soon as Jingyi left, Mrs. Tao asked Manager Ha and the others to retreat, and they were silent for a while.

Seeing Mrs. Tao looking out intently, Er An asked, "Mother, it's snowing outside, go out to see the snow?" ”

Mrs. Tao frowned and said, "What's so nice about that...... It's just that I'm always uneasy these days, and I don't know what will happen. ”

Er'an comforted her and said, "You're just too tired. ”

Mrs. Tao looked at her and said, "The father of the second young grandmother is not in good health, so I have to let Ah Si accompany her back to visit." She is sensible, she is not easy to mention, and she is in a hurry. ”

Er'an nodded.

Mrs. Tao looked out the window and said, "But your father is in the sun, rain and snow, even if he is not idle, he will watch it for a while...... When the old ladies went out, it was very cold. The person who delivered the letter hasn't come yet? ”

Er An said softly: "It's snowing, and it's a mountain road, so it's not easy to walk." Grandma may not be willing to let people come back in the snow to deliver the letter. ”

Mrs. Tao still looked at the falling snow and said, "Fortunately, everything is well prepared in Shichuan...... Grandma Qishao just said which hospital to go to? ”

Er'an thought for a moment and said, "I didn't say it." She took a closer look at her mother.

Mrs. Tao didn't seem to bother to speak again, closing her eyes and resting. Er An told her about preparing to go back to Taiyuan, but she only nodded and did not respond......

Jingyi went out and quickly arrived at the provincial hospital. When she was inquiring in the emergency department, she happened to meet Zhao Shimin. Zhao Shimin asked to understand the situation and found the ward where Qiu Wei was staying for her.

Jingyi rushed to the ordinary ward where Qiu Wei lived, and when she entered the door, she saw her curled up on the bed by the door, and called Qiu Wei. Seeing Jingyi, Qiu Wei was stunned.

Jing Yi looked at her stupid appearance, and was so anxious to slap her twice, but she couldn't help but feel distressed, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of disease is it?" How are the kids? ”

"I didn't ...... It's okay...... The doctor said I just ate something bad. Qiu Wei wanted to cry when she saw her, but when she saw that she was in a hurry, she stammered and was aggrieved, so she really cried.

Jingyi poked her forehead and said, "I'm such an adult, I don't know how to watch out." Atul isn't at home, what if something happens to you! ”

Qiu Wei hugged Jingyi's body and cried and choked, saying that she had eaten a bowl of cheese left over from the night before, "Aren't I afraid of trampling things." It's still made by Zhang's mother. ”

Jingyi is angry and funny. I heard a knock on the door, and someone called Mrs. Tao. When Jingyi looked up, it was Ren Xiufang who came. When she came in, she said that Zhao Shimin told her and asked if there was anything she could help with.

Jingyi looked at the situation in the ward, and proposed to change Qiu Wei to a single room. Qiu Wei said that as long as she observed for a day or two, she didn't have to be so troublesome.

Jingyi said: "I can't take you home immediately, and I can't stay to take care of you, so it's more reassuring to change the ward for you." ”

The ward was changed quickly, and Qiu Wei urged Jingyi to leave quickly.

Jingyi couldn't come out for too long, and told Qiu Wei to rest well, and before leaving, she was still not at ease, so she went to talk to Qiu Wei's attending doctor.

Ren Xiufang couldn't help but smile Jingyi and said, "I will take care of Qiu Wei...... You may have become a mother and you have become so nervous. In the past, you were just careful, and you didn't panic so easily. ”

"She's too young to understand anything." Jingyi said softly.

Ren Xiufang smiled: "Are you much older than her?" ”

The two walked out as they talked, and met a lady in gorgeous clothes. Jing Yi recognized it as the second young grandmother of the Shui family, and stood still to greet each other.

When the second young grandmother of the Shui family heard the reason why Ming Jingyi came to the hospital, she couldn't help but say, "The seventh young grandmother has a really good heart. ”

Jing Yi glanced at herself intentionally when she saw her say this, but she didn't take it to heart at first. The second young grandmother of the Shui family has a very bad complexion, and her face is even more ugly in a gorgeous dress. She said that she came to visit her husband who was hospitalized, and Jingyi asked about the cause of Shui Erye's illness, but she was a little stumbling. Jing Yi saw that she didn't want to talk more, so she didn't ask in detail. Saying goodbye to the second young grandmother of the Shui family, he walked out of the hospital building, waiting for the car to come, and wondered again.

Ren Xiufang, who was accompanying her, said in a low voice when she saw this: "I'm afraid she's upset." Second Master Shui raised a family outside, and she was recently discovered. Where is she the one who can swallow this breath, and let people smash it over there. Second Master Shui happened to be there, and the people who led the way didn't recognize him, and he was hospitalized for several days after being beaten in a fit of anger, and he was still unconscious. Now the Shui family wants to blame her for making a fuss and not knowing how to tolerate it. ”

Jingyi nodded. I thought it was no wonder that the second young grandmother of the Shui family was strong and face-loving, and her temperament was also very strong.

"It's been published in the tabloids, and the name is withheld, and if I don't know something inside the hospital, it's hard to believe. It is said that that party used to be a little dan, and he stopped singing because of the second master of Shui. Ren Xiufang said.

Jingyi didn't care about any of this. Ren Xiufang saw the Tao family's car coming over and asked her to get in the car.

……

Jingyi returned home and told her about the situation, and Zhang's mother couldn't help laughing. She asked Zhang's mother to prepare some food, and planned to go to see Qiu Wei tomorrow morning.

She asked if there was anything going on when she went out, and Zhang's mother said that the old lady sent someone back and asked her to take a look.

Jingyi nodded and said, "The road outside is a little slippery, tell them to be careful and don't fall." ”

Mrs. Tao was in poor spirits for several days. A few days ago, I was accompanied by the Tao Inze sisters to Shichuan. The old lady did not say how many days she would stay, but every day someone brought back and forth letters, and the letters would ask about the girl, and she was very worried. The old people in the family were not there, and it was already early winter, and the already empty house suddenly seemed even more empty.

Jingyi asked people to light the fireplace.

The room was warm, Jingyi looked at her sweet daughter who was sleeping in the cradle with her little buttocks, patted her little buttocks, bent down and kissed it, and for a moment, she couldn't help but bite it gently...... It was still snowing outside, and the firewood was burning and beeping in the fireplace. Yue'er brought her a cup of hot tea and said that the young master was back.

Jingyi held the teacup, looked at the snow in front of the window, heard the shouting, and when she looked down, she saw the white lion spreading joy in the snow. I didn't see Tao Xiang's figure, but only Tao Xiang in this courtyard could let the white lion do this game...... The white lion was nowhere to be seen, and the yard was quiet, and soon she heard movement in the house. Just after a cup of tea, she returned to the house and saw Tao Xiang coming in.

Her books and notes were all spread out by the cradle of Nannan, and she did not collect them. Tao Xiang should have noticed it when he went to see Nannan, because he looked at her before leaving, and said, "It's better to wait for next spring or autumn to enroll, or winter, it's more calm." ”

"I want to leave as soon as possible." She said.

Tao Xiang said, "I will arrange it for you." All expenses will be borne by me. ”

"Not necessarily. I have a little money of my own and will also apply for scholarships. Jingyi said.

Tao Xiang was silent for a moment and said, "I have a proposal, maybe you can postpone your studies for a while, and wait for you to grow up again." ”

"If it weren't for the death of my father, I would have taken Nannan out of the Tao family at this time." Jing Yi whispered.

Tao Xiang said, "You think about my suggestion. During this period, you can bring you here and No. 7, or wherever you like. ”

"I'm not going to change my mind." Jingyi said and looked at him. "I know you promised my mother to take good care of me. It's just that I don't need it anymore...... If she had known about it, she wouldn't have blamed you for not keeping your promises. So, no matter who you have promised, you don't have to take it to heart. ”

Tao Xiang listened and did not express his opinion. He looked at her for a moment before leaving.

Jingyi looked at her sleeping daughter, but her mood was a little chaotic.
