After breakfast, the group went out.

Zhao Quan drove, and Ji Beichuan and Xu Lifeng sent Nian'an out of Beijing together.

Since it was still early and the sky outside was still dark, before leaving, Nian An still asked Zhao Quan to drive the car to the entrance of Yongning Lane.

Nian An sat by the window and looked at the ancient alley in the dark, and there were occasionally one or two figures entering and leaving the alley.

"Do you want to go down and have a look?" Ji Beichuan on the side asked.

Nian An shook his head, turned his head to them, and said, "Let's go, it's almost dawn." ”

What's more, grandpa is no longer in Beijing now. It's okay, it's not there.

Ji Beichuan nodded, and Zhao Quan started the car.

The car drove slowly on the main road of the capital, at this point in time, there were not many people in the car, Nian'an looked at the sky that was gradually brightening, surrounded by familiar buildings and streets.

She has lived in the capital for more than 20 years, and she will be a little reluctant to leave here for the first time.

In the past, every time she went to the airport or station, she was in a hurry, but at that time she knew that no matter how far she went, her home would always be here, and she would eventually return here, but now, ......

She didn't know when she would come back. And here, it seems that there is no real home for her.

"I'm going out of Beijing, do you want to sleep for a while?" Ji Beichuan looked up at the highway toll station in front of him and asked.

Nian An watched the car gradually slow down, waiting to pass the toll booth, and at this time the sky was also bright.

"Sleep for a while, it'll be at least a few hours away." Xu Lifeng, who was on the side, also spoke up and said.

Nian An nodded, leaned on Ji Beichuan, and closed his eyes.

I didn't sleep well all night last night, and I was indeed a little sleepy.

Nian An closed her eyes, and after a while, she felt the car leave the toll booth, and then drove onto the highway at a faster speed. All the way to the north, it is getting farther and farther away from the capital.

……

At this time, the capital Li family.

Li Youjia received Nian'an's email.

She just got up, originally to see if An An had sent her a message, but in the past few days, she has burst her phone, and she has sent a bunch of WeChat and text messages.

But there was no news.

She didn't believe that An would be so fragile, because Gu Junyan and Yang Yuwei were stimulated to be like this!

There must be something else she didn't know.

And she also believes that Ann will definitely give news, and she will not be worried all the time.

Therefore, when she woke up this morning and received Nian'an's email, she was angry and excited!

She was so angry that she didn't believe her and didn't tell her where she went! But when she was excited, she finally had news of Nian'an!

Youjia got up, changed her clothes casually, and drove to Biqi Garden!

She had to ask Gu Junyan what was going on!

Why was Nian An so angry that he left Beijing, just because Gu Junyan and Yang Yuwei were entangled in an unclear way?

But Nian'an didn't know that there was a leg between Gu Junyan and Yang Yuwei on the first day!

"Gu Junyan - Gu Junyan - open the door!"

Li Youjia's car flew quickly to Biqi Garden.

However, now it's almost April, it's only ninety o'clock, and the sun is already so hot that people can't stop being irritable!

When Li Youjia came to the menacing door of Gu Mansion, Gu Junyan had not yet risen.

He drank some wine last night, but he didn't sleep well all night, and he didn't know why. I always feel empty in my heart.

When it was almost dawn, I finally fell asleep, and I didn't sleep long before I was woken up by Li Youjia.

"Li Youjia, are you a little girly, making a lot of noise at the door of someone else's house early in the morning, what do you want!"

Gu Junyan came down from upstairs and said impatiently while buttoning his shirt.

Aunt Chen had already opened the door for Li Youjia, and the woman rushed in after changing her shoes, if he hadn't come down quickly, she would probably have rushed to the upstairs bedroom!

"Gu Junyan, are you hiding something from me? An An ran away from home in a good manner, and now it's still ...... didn't even care about Jing Mei, and left the capital directly! You...... What the hell is going on with you and Nian'an? You have to make it clear to me today! ”

Gu Junyan listened to Li Youjia's words, and the hand that buttoned his shirt paused, and he raised his eyes to look at her, "Nian'an has left the capital?" ”

"What? You don't know? Also, how can you have the time to care about An An now, An An has been away from home for so many days, and I haven't seen you in a hurry to find it, and you stay at home all day, but you are leisurely! ”

When Li Youjia heard Gu Junyan's words, she glanced at him and said angrily.

But Gu Junyan frowned, "Have you seen her?" ”

It stands to reason that it won't, I've seen it, I won't know that Nian'an is pregnant, and now Nian'an's stomach shouldn't be able to hide!

"No, An An sent me an email, saying that she is gone, let me not worry about her." Li Youjia said that her nose was sour.

My heart is always empty, and I just feel that Nian'an is inexplicable!

It's just so different from her personality.

Isn't it Yang Yuwei's cheap woman, when did she care so much about that woman!

Gu Junyan was stunned for a while when he heard those words, and then came back to his senses.

Gone?

Did you go to Japan with Ki Kitagawa?

"Gu Junyan ......"

"Youjia, I'll follow Nian'an...... That's it. Gu Junyan smiled self-deprecatingly, turned around and prepared to go upstairs.

It was only when he turned around that he turned around and said, "Youjia, at the beginning, didn't you also say that if Nian'an wants to leave one day, you want me to let go." Now she's gone, and I'm ...... And as she wished. ”

After speaking, Gu Junyan strode upstairs.

Li Youjia stood there, watching Gu Junyan's figure disappear at the top of the stairs, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a while.

……

Next to the national highway outside the capital.

The willow tree had already pulled out its green and tender branches, and the woman under the willow tree held on to the trunk of the tree, bending over and vomiting uncomfortably.

"Are you alright?" Ji Beichuan stood behind Nian'an, patted her back gently, looking at her uncomfortable appearance, Ji Beichuan panicked in his heart.

"It's fine." Nian An took the water handed by Ji Beichuan and rinsed his mouth, maybe he had been in the car for too long, and he suddenly panicked with chest tightness just now, and he just wanted to vomit in his stomach.

"An An, are you okay? Do you want to find a hospital? Actually, I've already arranged for a couple of doctors to go there yesterday and stay there. Xu Lifeng was also a little worried.

felt that he shouldn't have proposed to let Nian'an go to Beihe Village in the first place.

"It's okay, it should be normal morning sickness." Nian'an is almost four months pregnant, and she has a certain understanding of her body.

In addition to the body reaction that was stimulated by Yang Yuwei last time, it is actually normal to have occasional morning sickness after that.

The group got back into the car, Xu Lifeng opened the window over there a little gap, because he had gotten off the highway, the road on this side of the national highway was not very easy to walk, so the car drove slowly.

It wasn't until almost two o'clock in the afternoon that Nian'an and the others arrived at Beihe Village.

This is where her mother used to stay and work, and it is also the place where she was born.

"This village and town is not big, but it has also developed a little over the years, but it is naturally not comparable to the capital."

After getting out of the car, the group went to the village, because the road was not easy to walk, the car could not drive in, so they had to walk in.

Xu Lifeng introduced Beihe Village to Nian'an.

Nian An looked at the countryside full of fresh air, but felt that it was more peaceful and peaceful than the noise of the city.

"I had a new house built here, and everything in it is complete." If it weren't for this, Xu Lifeng wouldn't be at ease that Nian'an would live here alone.

"Is the house for you?" Nian'an heard Xu Lifeng say that he had a house here, but it was quiet and would not disturb anything, at that time, she wondered if he was keeping it for himself to support his old age.

That day in the Beijing suburb villa, after she and Xu Lifeng calmed down their state of mind, they were a little distressed and didn't know where to go.

It is obviously not suitable to go to Japan with Ji Beichuan, and now that she is like this, how can she go with Achuan, and she really doesn't want to stay in the capital.

Elsewhere, she was both strange and had no place to belong.

At that time, Nian An was really confused, she only felt that the world was big, but she couldn't find a place where she wanted to go or could hide and be quiet.

Fortunately, Xu Lifeng told her that he had a house here.

In Beihe Village, the first time she heard it was from her grandfather's mouth.

Grandpa said that she was carried to Gu's house by a woman from Beihe Village to find her grandfather.

At that time, as soon as she was born, her mother went not long after, if it wasn't for the fact that there happened to be a mother in the village who gave birth, and her mother gave the person some money to help feed her, maybe she would have starved to death!

"Originally, I wanted to fund the repair of this road, but ...... I'm afraid that Luo Minxia will find out and make a big fuss and make the whole village uneasy, so I just think about it later. ”

The road was a little difficult to walk, Ji Beichuan caressed her, and Xu Lifeng walked in front.

Nian An's stomach is strong, and he is a little panting after walking for a long time.

What's more, the weather is also a little hot now, especially at noon, when the sun is very hot.

The group walked and stopped, and walked for nearly half an hour before arriving at Xu Lifeng's newly built house.

Not far from the door of the house, Nian An saw a very tall and thick tree from a distance, and there was a small pond next to the tree.

There's a flock of ducks swimming somewhere.

"An An, let's rest for a while." When he arrived at the house, Xu Lifeng asked Nian An to sit down and rest for a while.

After Nian'an decided to come and live, Xu Lifeng asked people to clean up in advance.

Nian An looked at the decoration and equipment in the house, and it was really complete.

Although it is in the village, there are air conditioners, water heaters, and TVs.

"There's internet here, right?" Ji Beichuan asked.

"Yes, it's the model, sometimes it's not as good as the city." Xu Lifeng said and connected them to the net.

"It's good." Nian An looked at the neat room, and the decoration was also a simple but warm style that she liked.

Nian Anchai, this house Xu Lifeng must have been decorated and arranged according to his mother's washing.

So, it's not like the tone of a man's room, so gray. Instead, it's warmer.

"I'll go see what's in the kitchen first. I have already asked people next door to say hello in advance, and I will come over every day to cook for Nian'an, sit and clean, and pay my salary every month. Xu Lifeng also arranged it very properly.

"I think it's better to have someone cook. The food next door is not to your liking......"

"I'm not so picky." Nian An smiled when he heard that, but he felt that Ji Beichuan was too careful.

"I think you're pregnant now."

If he wasn't pregnant, he wouldn't be so worried.

"What about pregnant women? My mother was here with me at the time, and maybe she was still doing farm work every day. Nian An subconsciously spoke, but as soon as the words came out, he saw Xu Lifeng's face slightly stunned, a little strange.

Nian An knew what she said, which made Xu Lifeng feel uncomfortable again.

Xu Lifeng didn't say anything and went to the kitchen in the courtyard.

Nian An watched Xu Lifeng go to the kitchen, sighed and said, "After so many years, he has never put it down." ”

Otherwise, I wouldn't have dragged my body into that shape because I didn't get divorced before.

"It is understandable that Mr. Xu will let go, after all, back then, they did miss too much."

I don't know that my beloved woman is pregnant with her own child, and when I know, my beloved is gone. How can I let go, how can I not feel guilty.

"An An, you and I have also missed, although five years have passed, although time has passed, but fortunately...... The good thing is that we are all still there, and we still have ...... There's still a chance to make up for those, huh? ”

Ji Beichuan looked at Nian An, and the last sentence seemed to have some uncertainties.

Between them, there is still a chance to make amends, right?

"Achuan, I'm sorry, although I know you don't want to hear this at all, but I really ...... I'm so sorry. ”

They did miss a lot, but so much Achuan never changed, but her heart was ...... But there was another man.

"An An, it's not your fault." He didn't blame her.

If you want to blame, you can only blame himself, blame why he didn't make the heart to take Nian An away with him in the first place.

"An An, don't talk about this, I said, I will wait for you, I will definitely wait for you." Ji Beichuan looked at Nian An and smiled.

Nian An nodded.

But the throat is blocked and uncomfortable. Can't say a word.

Ah Chuan said that he would wait for her, but she didn't know when she would be able to get out of the pain Gu Junyan gave her.

After a simple lunch, in the afternoon, when the sky was getting dark, Nian An urged them.

"It's not too early, and the road will be difficult for a while."

Since he decided to be here alone and take care of his thoughts, Nian An didn't want to procrastinate any longer.

If Ji Beichuan accompanies her here for one more day, she will feel more guilty and pressured.

"Okay, if there is anything, remember to find Aunt Li next door, and I also said hello to the village chief, and the doctor also lives in the village, and will come to you regularly to do some examinations." Xu Lifeng once again gave Nian An instructions.

Nian An listened to the words and said impatiently: "I know, I've said it many times, I'm just pregnant, and I'm not a child who can't take care of himself because of my IQ regression!" ”

In fact, at this time, with Ah Chuan and Xu Lifeng by his side, Nian An still felt a little warm and comforted in his heart.

Especially Xu Lifeng, he found a place for her to hide with peace of mind, this place, just like the circle she had encircled herself in Gu Mansion at the beginning, made her feel that she could hide and recuperate.

It turned out that there was my father's care and care by my side, which was like this.

This is the first time Nian An feels the presence of his father, what is reassuring and comforting.

Standing under the old locust tree in front of the courtyard, Nian An watched Xu Lifeng and Ji Beichuan's figures gradually drift away.

They turned around, and Nian An just smiled and waved at them.

Signal them to be reassured.

It wasn't until their figures gradually disappeared on the path in front of them that Nian An sighed, and the corners of his mouth smiled lightly.

Finally, she was the only one left.

In this strange place where no one until she is.

No, it's not a person, and there's a little thing in the stomach.

Nian An lowered his head and touched his belly, as if it was a little bigger.

……

Two months later.

In the courtyard of Bac Ha Village.

A group of children were chattering in the yard.

"Teacher Shen said that you should paint as you like, don't look at the things in front of you."

"However, I think sometimes it's better to follow the drawing."

"Can you two stop arguing, Teacher Shen is taking a lunch break."

The older little boy, as soon as those words came out, the children chattering in the yard instantly booed and quieted down with each other.

When Nian An came out of the house, he saw that the group of children in the courtyard had already drawn a picture in front of them.

"Xiaobei, are you painting me?" Nian An looked at one of the paintings, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

Although the painting didn't look like her, her belly bulged slightly, and her clothes were the color of the dress she wore yesterday.

"Painted ...... Isn't it bad? Xiaobei scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.

Nian An looked at the thin little boy, and said with a particularly gentle look: "No, the painting is very good." ”

"Really?" When Xiaobei heard Nian An say yes, his black eyes lit up instantly.

"Of course."

"Teacher An An, what about me? Am I good at drawing? Another little girl pulled An An and anxiously asked An An to see what she had drawn.

Nian An saw that she was painting the sea.

The appearance of the sea is very similar to the pictures she showed them of the sea, but there are fish and frogs in her own imagination.

Although frogs are usually found by the ditch and in the field, she can draw like this, which is quite an idea.

"Xiaohui also draws very well." Nian An touched the little girl's somewhat thinning hair and said with a smile.

After a few paintings, Nian An commented on them one by one, and this group of children were satisfied one by one, and went to eat fruit with a happy face.

"Teacher An An, this ...... Dragon fruit, it's delicious. Xiaohui said with a smile while eating.

"If you like to eat, just eat more, but eating too much may cause diarrhea." Nian An cut some more fruit and served it to them.

Most of these children are left-behind children in the village.

My parents went out to work, and I stayed at home with my grandfather or grandmother. Usually I occasionally help the family do some farm work, and some of them play in the fields idlely.

The reason why she taught them to draw was that once she was painting in the yard and was seen by Xiaobei.

The boy looked very clever, but he was dressed in dirty clothes, not tall, and miserable thin.

Seeing her paint, his eyes were full of envy that he couldn't hide, staring at her brushes, and he couldn't take his eyes off it for a while.

Nian'an saw that the child liked it, so he gave him a paintbrush and paper, and let him draw at will.

Who knows, he often came over after that, and he still took Nian'an's picture album and picture book to read, and occasionally he didn't understand, and he would ask Nian'an.

Later, Nian'an gradually began to ask him to paint.

But who knows, after teaching Xiaobei, he was heard by other children in the village.

This made everyone come over, although Ji Beichuan prepared a lot of brushes and paper for her, but there were so many children at once, it was inevitable that everyone would not be able to share it.

Until the whole thing, the village chief made a special trip to talk to Nian'an and told him about the situation in the village.

It is said that these are some left-behind children, some are not yet in primary school, and some are poor and have no money to study, so they are all idle at home, and it is a pity to look at them.

Ask Nian'an if she can teach them how to draw or read or write.

Nian An was also a little hesitant at first, after all, she was pregnant with a child now, and she didn't know if she had the energy to bring so many children.

However, later, I couldn't bear to look at the children at the age of reading or interested, but they could only watch with their eyes because of practical problems.

Thinking of the look in Xiaobei's eyes when he first came to the courtyard to look at her, Nian An couldn't help but be a little moved.

So, later Nian An told Ji Beichuan about it, and asked him to mail some colored pens, children's books and picture albums or something.

When Ji Beichuan heard this, he was still very hesitant, but after thinking about it, he also knew that he couldn't persuade her, not to mention that it was good to have something to do.

So she sent her a large box of books, brushes, paper, and albums.

Thinking that when I first came here, I felt cold and lonely for the first half month, but after that, with these chirping children every day, Nian'an felt that life was more colorful.

"Teacher Shen, is it true that you said yesterday that you would call me arithmetic and English?" After Xiaobei ate a little fruit, he leaned over and blinked his eyes and asked Nian Dao.

Nian An saw that he was not active in eating, but read the new lesson she said yesterday to call him new.

"yes, do you want to learn?" Nian An asked with a smile.

Xiaobei is six years old, but he hasn't gone to school yet, I heard that his parents are divorced, his father is working outside and won't come back, and his mother has also taken the family's money and ran away, and he doesn't know where to go, and now he follows his grandmother, who is almost eighty years old, doing some farm work every day, it is difficult for both of them to make ends meet, let alone go to school.

Nian'an also knew about Xiaobei's situation, and felt a little sad.

Since childhood, there has not been a sound family, not to mention, but also ...... I can't even afford to read a book.

But Xiaobei loves to read very much, and Nian'an taught him to read and write, and he remembers ancient poems very quickly.

"Can I learn?" Xiaobei's eyes lit up, and he looked at Nian An expectantly.

"Teacher An An, I can help you clean the house, and I can also help you wash the vegetables and get the courier." Xiaobei didn't wait for Nian'an to speak, and said in a hurry.

"Okay, you help the teacher so much, it's okay for the teacher to teach you more." Nian An said with a smile. There was a slight sourness in my heart.

It's really the children of poor families who are in charge of the family early.

Nian An got up and was about to go back to the house to get some books, but before she moved, she felt the child in her stomach kick her.
