Chapter 110: Those Past Years
In the evening, Gu Yankai left after dinner, and Xin Manqing and his grandmother sat on the balcony watching the stars and chatting.
"Qing'er, in fact, grandma feels really satisfied to be able to sit and chat with you now." Old Lady Xin's face was very calm, and she looked contented and loving.
"Grandma, can you tell me more about the past?" Xin Manqing wanted to know what he had forgotten.
In the past, she heard Ai Yilun say that if people with amnesia can recover in their original environment, they should listen to the people around them talk about what happened in the past.
It is very helpful for memory recovery, and Xin Manqing wants to see if this method is useful.
"Okay." Old Lady Xin began to think about the past.
"When you were a child, you were very naughty, laughing, and noisy."
"Your father Xin Shanming, he is actually very introverted, but he is full of doting on you, and his feelings for your mother are also very sincere. I'm thinking about how to give you two the best life. ”
"Your mother, Liu, has a gentle personality and keeps the house in good order. Every day when we go home, her meals are the biggest hope for coming home after a day away. ”
"At that time, my grandmother felt that she had really found a very good daughter-in-law."
"And then, bring you to me."
"When you were born, you were very small, and your wrinkled features were put together. Grandma was still wondering if she was holding the wrong one, how could my granddaughter grow up like this. ”
"Poof." Xin Manqing couldn't help but be amused by her grandmother.
"So you used to dislike me so much." Xin Manqing leaned her head on her grandmother's shoulder and was coquettish, this feeling was very familiar.
Maybe when I was a child, I used to lean on my grandmother's arms and snort.
"Not really, but now look at my baby grandchildren and granddaughters, the bigger and more beautiful, the collection of your parents' various advantages, grandma is really a baby, you can't have time." Mrs. Xin touched Xin Manqing's head, full of doting.
After a slight pause, Old Lady Xin continued: "At that time, because Shan Ming was the personal guard of the second master of the Gu family, he often left home with a summons, and it took several days to return. ”
The days of gathering less and leaving more make him cherish the time he spent together as a family. Every time I come back from outside, I will bring you a gift. ”
"He is soft-hearted and always feels that he has little time to spend with you, so he naturally wants to create the best material conditions for the family."
"Originally, our Xin family didn't necessarily need him to do this job, but at first, it was because of the sense of mission of the soldiers after retiring from the army that he chose to stay in the Gu family, and originally he and Second Master Bo were also comrades-in-arms in the army."
"Later, his brotherhood with the second master of the Bo family gradually accumulated deeper in the bitter battle in the shopping mall, so that he could no longer let go of his love for the second master of the Bo family."
"He is always worried that in such a sinister business war, if he does not have his own personal protection, Bo Erye will inevitably fall into a dangerous situation."
"But what he didn't expect was that because he didn't protect his family, he was finally forced to let Bo Erye and his wife be murdered......"
Grandma's face showed a look of pity, she felt sorry for her son, she had always been wronged by the Gu family, thinking that he had betrayed the Gu family, but in fact, he was more loyal to the Gu family than anyone else.
"I knew Dad wasn't that kind of perfidy!"
Xin Manqing was also infected by her grandmother's emotions, and she felt that her personality was somewhat following her father, if her father was that kind of person, she would not be much better.
"Grandma, do you have any pictures from the past?" Xin Manqing wanted to see what her grandmother described herself and her family looked like, and only a small part of her memory came back.
If you can see the photos, you might be able to remember more.
"Yes, you wait, I'll look for it." After speaking, Mrs. Xin got up and walked into the house.
Grandma's generation is particularly obsessed with photos, and those black, white and yellowed memory pieces are very well preserved by them, each of which is placed on a page album, or a few small sheets to make up a page.
Whenever they miss some old people or reminisce about the past, they will open the photo album alone, wear their reading glasses, and sit in a rocking chair to browse the pictures left by each moment one by one.
Mrs. Xin took out a well-protected photo album from the cabinet, a very ordinary black cardboard shell, she touched it again and again, and opened it for Xin Manqing to see.
"Qing'er, this is when your father was a child." Mrs. Xin pointed to a photo of a young boy who was smiling shyly with his lips pursed.
"Dad looked so shy when he was a kid, hahaha." Xin Manqing couldn't help laughing.
This is the same feeling as the father I saw later, but he doesn't have the stability of being a father, and his feelings are really restrained.
remembered the meal she recognized with him, and he silently served himself vegetables, braised pork, piece after piece.
It was as if he wished he had eaten all the good things, but he ate very little.
He didn't express or use words to say his suffering over the years, or how much he missed his daughter, but silently covered up the love in his heart with his actions.
"This is a young grandmother holding her father, right?" Xin Manqing asked, pointing to the young woman behind the boy.
"Hmm." Grandma nodded, her eyes doting on her son. Although he can't see it anymore.
"Grandma was really a beauty when she was young." Xin Manqing paused, "No, it's still beautiful." ”
"Haha, huh? I think so too! "Mrs. Xin has always been an open-minded and humorous fashionable old lady, who does not hide her inner thoughts.
And among her peers, she is indeed a beautiful old lady.
Xin Manqing and grandma laughed together, and their hearts became closer and closer.
"Is he a grandfather?" Xin Manqing pointed to a young man who was standing with his young grandmother and was nervously standing straight.
"yes, this is our first group photo. At that time, it was already time to talk about marriage, and he had to go on a long trip to run the last business before marriage. ”
"At that time, he said that he wanted to take a photo, and he couldn't see me for half a month, so he could take it out and take a look when he wanted me." When grandma said it, she still had a watery smile on her face, which showed that grandpa was really good to her.
"But, when he was taking pictures, he was very nervous."
"The photographer asked him, who is this girl to you?"
"He just smiled stupidly, and said it was my fiancée, pretty, right?"
At that time, the photographer opened his mouth and said, "What are you nervous about, fiancée!" Hands on shoulders! I thought you liked people and didn't catch up! Silly boy! ”
"He was even more nervous, and in the end, he didn't dare to put his hand on my shoulder, so he took this picture of standing upright."
Xin Manqing listened to her grandmother's description, and was particularly envious of the pure feelings between the two people in that era.
In fact, it is love, without distractions, and has nothing to do with desires.
If you like someone, you treat her stupidly, work hard, go home on time, and even buy a cake on the way and cover it in the inner pocket of your coat for fear that she will have a cold stomach.
