Chapter 14: A Favor

Li Xiu'e said nervously: "Xiaoyuan, don't be impulsive. ”

Lu Yuan: "Mom, where do you want to go?" I'll go to Liu Changhe and talk about it. ”

Li Xiu'e: "But I can't see Liu Changhe at all now." I can't even get through the phone, only a manager's phone, your father has called, Liu Changhe doesn't see us at all. Uncle Niu next door said that he had seen him exercise in Binjiang Park some time ago, but we can't go to Binjiang Park to guard. ”

I didn't have time to share the joy of selling the painting and selling it for a sky-high price.

Lu Yuan returned to the room and thought about how to find Liu Changhe.

The phone call really didn't work.

Call the manager, and people will come directly to the court.

It was a stupid idea to go to Riverside Park and wait for the rabbit, but now it seems that this is the only way to do it.

Lu Yuan arrived at Binjiang Park at five o'clock the next day.

It was just dawn, and there were few people.

An old lady sat on a bench by the river in a daze.

Didn't guard Liu Changhe.

The next day, I went back.

For three days, the old lady was there.

Five o'clock in the morning had arrived, and I sat on the same bench, staring at the river in a daze, and left at six o'clock in the morning.

On the fourth day, at half past five, Lu Yuan suddenly heard a cry.

Very depressed, try not to make a sound, so as not to disturb others, although there are very few people in this part of the park.

The cry was full of sadness and regret......

The old lady stood up tremblingly and walked towards the river.

Is this unthinkable, planning to commit suicide?

Lu Yuan hurriedly rushed over and grabbed the old lady.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you? The water is too deep and dangerous. ”

The old lady was dazzled by crying, and threw herself on Lu Yuan's shoulder and cried for a while.

After half a ring, calm was restored.

The two sat on the bench, and the old lady wiped away her tears, showed a smile, and said, "Young man, let you see a smile." ”

Lu Yuan decided to comfort her.

can force an old lady of this age to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, there are only a few reasons.

He sighed and said, "Auntie, now that the social system is so good, what kind of difficult country is there to support us, even if we don't have children, we can still dance square dance with a group of uncles and aunts......

The old lady was stunned for a moment: "I have children." Both sons and daughters. ”

Both children?

It must be because the children are not filial or poor.

Lu Yuan: "Auntie, who in this world doesn't have a trouble? You have your troubles, and your children have your children's troubles." So when getting along, there will inevitably be friction. My dad and I are. I'm almost in my twenties, and my dad was upset and beat me up with a broom. I didn't even dare to go home, sometimes I didn't go home once a month for half a month. I'm afraid of being beaten, and I'm even more afraid that he will see me upset. Children are working hard for life outside, and parents are also heartbroken. But after all, it's not a generation, and the generation gap is too big. The way of life, the way of thinking, everything, is different. It's a little troublesome, I didn't come back to accompany you or something, you have to understand more, right?"

The old lady looked at him with a smile and said kindly: "Auntie's child, working in the provincial capital. The girl is an executive of a foreign company, her son is more capable, and her daughter-in-law is beautiful, generous and filial. The little grandson and granddaughter are well-behaved and obedient. Every once in a while, they would come back with their children to see me. The provincial capital is not far away, and it takes more than an hour to drive. My daughter-in-law was still not at ease, so I found two nannies to take care of me......"

Lu Yuan's head was full of black lines: "Auntie, it's your fault to show off like this." You live such a happy life, you just ......"

Old lady: "Young man, Auntie didn't want to kill herself. ”

Lu Yuan: "Then you just now?"

The old lady looked at the river, and there was a mist in her eyes, and after a long time, she said, "Young man, you have told me so many great truths, and my aunt will tell you some of them." ”

She said to Lu Yuan: Child, when you reach the age of your aunt, sitting in the back garden, basking in the sun in the afternoon sunset, making tea and setting fruits on the table next to you, when you look through a book called "Life", you will find that there are too many happy or unhappy in this life, and too much pride or humility in this life...... What kind of money, what kind of fame, is something outside the body. And these are the only treasures you can take away. So there are some things that you have to do boldly and let go. Because after you read the whole book, you will find that what makes you regret it is never that you did something, but that you did not do something.

She said to Lu Yuan: For example, love, in your life, at least once, forget yourself for someone, don't ask for results, don't ask for peers, don't ask for what you once had, and don't even ask the other party to love you too, your idea is very simple, you just hope that you meet that person in the most beautiful years.

She said to Lu Yuan: Young man, my aunt told you that when you meet a girl you like in the future, don't tell anyone to break up, not for the time being. Don't dare to look up at the swan just because you're temporarily down, and don't think that you can one day become a prince and give her happiness. You're so young that you don't even know how long it will be, long enough for you to forget her, long enough for you to like someone again, just like you liked her in the first place.

She said to Lu Yuan: A farewell, it turned out to be a lifetime. So, each has his own life, each loves someone else, once loved each other, but now it has nothing to do with each other.

She talked a lot to Lu Yuan.

But Lu Yuan knew that she was talking to herself.

So he didn't answer, and he's actually quite embarrassed right now.

What kind of love, love......

He felt that he must have been abandoned by Cupid, and that the arrow of love had never shot him.

But now the old lady is in good spirits, and it seems that it is not polite to leave at this time.

After chattering for more than ten minutes, the old lady finally let out a long sigh, as if she had spit out all the anger that had been suppressed in her heart for a lifetime.

She said, "Young man, you really know how to chat, and Auntie is very happy." ”

Lu Yuan shouted in his heart: Hey, hey, hey...... Auntie, it's been more than ten minutes, I haven't said anything, it's okay for you to talk alone.

However, in the past ten minutes, Lu Yuan has understood it.

The old lady has lived a very happy life in this life, with both children and grandchildren, grandchildren around her knees, her daughter-in-law is sensible and filial, worry-free about food and clothing, and good health.

Ask yourself, Lu Yuan feels that if his life is like this, this life will be satisfied.

So he felt that the old lady regretted because of an unforgettable first love before marriage, and she was purely idle.

Lu Yuan: "Auntie, I have a straight temperament, and what I say may not be very good." I don't think about it. Uncle Jiuquan will be unhappy. Your son and daughter are not happy if they know. ”

Old lady: "Auntie knows what you mean." Auntie, in her life, she has never done anything to be sorry for your uncle. When your aunt married your uncle, she was also innocent. But the obsession in my heart......"

She smiled bitterly: "When you are older, when you experience more, you will understand." I want to forget, too. But where is it so easy? It's like when he and I released a white turtle here, and the Huansha Creek went down the river, connected to the big river, and then went down to the sea. That white turtle carries a lot of things to me, and even if it is alive, it should be in the sea. Where can I see it?"

The road is far more serious.

Anyway, I thought that if my daughter-in-law always had another person in her heart, regardless of whether she was sorry for herself, there must be a pimple in her heart.

He made an excuse to leave.

Alone in a secluded place, he took out the magic pen from his arms.

From the moment I discovered the magic of this pen, I have always carried it with me, lest I lose it.

There was no ink, it was fine, I drew a white turtle on a stone by the river with water.

Down, if there is divine help, three or two times lifelike.

The moment the pen was closed, the white turtle on the stone quickly became real.

Lu Yuan turned around again and shouted, "Auntie, come and see, white turtle!"

The old lady smiled: "You kid, don't make fun of me." The white turtle is a rare species, and it was called a divine turtle in ancient times, how can it be so coincidental?"

Lu Yuan: "Auntie, really, don't believe me, I'll take you to see it." ”

The old lady half-convinced and followed the road away.

On the edge of Huansha Creek, on the reef, a palm-sized white turtle was lying lazily on it. The turtle body is white and crystal clear.

Sticking out his head and looking around, he slowly jumped into the water with his paws, and after a while, disappeared without a trace.

The old lady covered her mouth with tears in her eyes, looked at the water where the white turtle disappeared, looked shocked and silent.

Lu Yuan: "Auntie, look, this is the will of heaven." You just said that forgetting the past is as difficult as seeing this white turtle. In the blink of an eye, I met the white turtle. This is God in the dark to make you want to open a little, so that you can enjoy your old age in peace. So, let the past pass. Enjoy the filial piety of your children, and your children and grandchildren are around your knees, how good. ”

The old lady was still in a daze.

Lu Yuan wanted to say a few more words, but suddenly saw a person passing by in the distance.

Liu Changhe!

No way!

Finally caught by him.

Lu Yuan hurriedly said: "Auntie, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." ”

As soon as he walked on his front foot, two Mercedes Benz off-road cars stopped at the entrance of the park.

The door of the car in front opened, and four people came down.

Black tunic with sunglasses and well-trained.

It's clearly a bodyguard.

The bodyguard came to the car behind him and bowed down respectfully to open the door.

A middle-aged man in his forties in the car had an expressionless face and a cold aura.

The bodyguard said in a low voice: "Xiangye, the old lady is chatting with a young man in the park, and Jiang Ming is staring at them nearby." ”

The middle-aged man nodded slightly and got out of the car.

The bodyguard reached out against the roof of the car, afraid that he would hit his head.

Middle-aged man: "Don't go in, go back first." ”

The bodyguard said nervously: "Xiangye, you are ...... alone"

"Back!"

The middle-aged man strode towards the park, leaving a word without looking back, undoubtedly, loudly.

Several bodyguards were silent, standing neatly, bowing their heads in unison, and waiting for the middle-aged man to walk into the park before driving away.

The middle-aged man came to the riverside.

Looking at the old lady who had sat back on the bench, the coldness on her face disappeared, she took off the sunglasses she was wearing, bowed down straight, and even smiled heaped.

The words just now are like gold, and the sound is long gone, and the voice is very gentle.

He squatted beside the old lady, one knee almost to the ground, took the old lady's hand, and said softly, "Mom, why are you crying?"

The old lady hurriedly wiped away her tears: "Xiangguo, why are you back?"

Ding Xiangguo: "The little nanny called and said that you always come out before dawn in the morning these days, and you don't let you follow, I'm a little worried." ”

Old lady: "You kid, you're making a fuss, mom is fine." ”

Ding Xiangguo: "Your eyes are about to cry and swollen." Who bullied you? I'll settle accounts with him. That kid just now?"

The old lady glared at him: "What nonsense, Mom hasn't seen such a pleasing young man for a long time." ”

Ding Xiangguo: "Mom, let's go back." ”

The old lady nodded: "Okay, go back." Mom figured it out, and went to the provincial capital with you to enjoy the blessings, and stopped guarding here. ”

Ding Xiangguo's eyes lit up, and his face was full of surprise: "Mom, really, it's been two years, and I said I would pick you up two years ago." You've been reluctant. How did you figure it out?"

The old lady looked around.

Ding Xiangguo: "Mom, what are you looking for?" ”

The old lady sighed: "Xiangguo, look for that young man, and thank them well." Mom owes him a favor!"
