At this time, there was a very sad atmosphere in the house. And the two of us are not suitable to disturb this atmosphere here.

Gu Chengzi's face was pressed against the door, and he gave me a wink. I was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and decided to follow his thoughts.

He said to me, let's get out of here quickly, don't disturb Qinqin and Aunt Xue to catch up.

But just as we quietly turned around and were about to leave, the diligence in the house suddenly shouted loudly.

"You two, you're here, don't go quietly again. ”

The two of us froze, looked at each other in embarrassment, and then slowly turned around and put one hand on the door. None of us thought that diligence had already discovered that we were coming.

Gu Chengzi took a deep breath, and after plucking up his courage, he pushed the door open.

The inside of Aunt Xue's house is like heaven and hell compared to the outside of the house. As soon as I stepped inside, I felt very relaxed and less nervous and hesitant.

"Chengzi?!Xiaoqiong?!" Aunt Xue covered her mouth for a while, revealing a very shocked look.

"Aunt Xue!" Gu Chengzi and I shouted in unison and very excitedly.

"It's a surprise. Aunt Xue's hands trembled, and at the same time another tear fell.

Diligently and wittily took a step back, leaving room for the two of us to huddle together. Sure enough, I couldn't control my body and rushed to Aunt Xue's side, opened my arms, and hugged her.

"Aunt Xue...... I want to...... I miss you so much......"

"Xiao Qiong, I miss you too! Come, let Aunt Xue see you!"

The nanomatter on my head quickly flowed back, revealing my true self. When Aunt Xue saw me, she quickly raised her hand, put her hands on my cheeks, and looked left and right.

In an instant, the atmosphere was sad again. It's just that it's the result of extreme happiness.

Aunt Xue smiled contentedly and looked at us over and over until she was sure that we were all right, then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sat down in her chair.

Just as she sat down, she saw the baby pod that Gu Chengzi was carrying behind her. She quickly stood up again and walked behind him. Through the glass on the cabin, Aunt Xue looked at Xiao Nuo with tears in her eyes, and then gently put one hand on the cabin.

"Chengzi, whose child is this?" Aunt Xue asked in surprise.

"This ......" Gu Chengzi looked at me with a pleading gaze.

It is estimated that at this time, he doesn't know how to explain it. After all, the last time I left, it was only a few months ago. But this time I came back, with a child who looked to be a full year old.

Aunt Xue followed Gu Chengzi's gaze and also fixed her gaze on me. Her expression gradually changed from surprise to doubt.

"Xiao Qiong, is this kid you...... and ......" She looked back at Gu Chengzi again.

"No, no, no, Aunt Xue, you misunderstood. I quickly waved my hand and denied, "This child was not actually born by us. ”

"You didn't give birth to it, so this child...... Who are the parents?"

"This ...... His parents were us. ”

"What?" Aunt Xue frowned slightly, shook her head in confusion, and continued, "You adopted it?"

"This ...... It's not ......"

"And how did this kid come from?"

Gu Chengzi and I looked at each other, and we didn't have the courage to tell the truth for a while. Because of that truth, it also has something to do with Aunt Xue.

At this time, Diligent walked between me and Aunt Xue,

He gently patted me on the shoulder with one hand. Then the corners of his mouth went up and he smiled at me.

"Joan, it's okay to be straight. ”

"Is it really possible?" I asked worriedly.

"Yes. He nodded and said in the affirmative.

Aunt Xue saw us so secretive, and the look on her face was even more puzzled. And we were afraid that Aunt Xue would react too violently after hearing the truth, so we let her sit back in the chair safely first.

I opened the baby compartment and pulled Arnold out of it. I watched him sleep and couldn't help but reach out and touch his little face. Then he took a deep breath and spoke again.

"That day, under the guidance of the snow fox, we found the 'Spring of Desire' in the depths of the Tianshan Mountains. Xiaonuo is what it gives us after we make a wish. ”

"Snow Fox?'Fountain of Desire'? you...... You've seen that too?"

As soon as Aunt Xue heard that we had seen what she had seen, she was so excited that her whole body trembled, and she couldn't hold back her expression anymore and began to cry. Diligent hurriedly walked up to her, hugged her, and whispered in her ear.

"Mother, that's all true! That's all true!"

"I've been blaming myself all my life, blaming myself for killing my father! He has always believed in me, but until the moment he died, he had to bear everyone's cold words! I couldn't, and I couldn't give him shame! It's all my fault!"

"Mother, that's not your fault! No! It's all the people at the time who didn't distinguish right from wrong! It's all their fault!" Aunt Xue's emotions had already collapsed, and she quietly shed tears while trying her best to comfort her.

Seeing them like this, my heart is also very uncomfortable. couldn't help but hug Xiaonuo in his arms even more.

I never thought that this belated truth would have such a big impact on Aunt Xue.

It's just that that's only part of the truth, and that's the other part...... I don't know whether to say it or not.

I glanced at Gu Chengzi with great sadness and sympathy, hoping that he would give me the courage to tell me about the giant snow fox. But he frowned slightly, his eyes were slightly hollow, and when he saw my eyes, he immediately understood what I meant.

But instead of giving me courage, he shook his head slightly, motioning for me to say no more. I thought about it and decided that I really shouldn't have said it.

"It's a pity on me. Aunt Xue sobbed and said, "There's no way to make up for it, regret." ”

"Aunt Xue, in fact, you don't have to blame yourself. Your father's spirit in heaven must want you to be happy, to be happy. Gu Chengzi interjected, "If you feel grief and self-blame for him all your life. I don't think that's what he wants to see. ”

I turned my head suddenly, extremely doubting whether the person in front of me was really Gu Chengzi. How could he say such a "beautiful" and comforting sentence without thinking as if he were a different person?

Hearing him say this, everyone present was stunned. Aunt Xue stared at him with her eyelids beating for a long time, the tears in her eyes gradually dried up, and she regained her soft starlight. Immediately after, the corners of her mouth quivered, and a smile reluctantly appeared.

"Mother's ......"

"It's okay, Fen'er, mother is fine. She looked at me and Gu Chengzi and continued, "Thank you, Chengzi, Xiao Qiong. ”

"Aunt Xue, this is what we should do, no need to thank you. I said weakly.

"Why don't you use it? You told me about it, and it kind of helped me undo a knot in my heart. This thank you is still as it should be. ”

"We ......"

I just wanted to speak, but I was interrupted by Gu Chengzi on the side. He stepped in front of me,

Said in a very sincere tone.

"Aunt Xue, then we will be cheeky enough to accept this thank you. In the future, if you need help with anything, Aunt Xue, we will definitely do our best to help. ”

"Okay, the city is so good. Aunt Xue's face suddenly returned to the sun.

I was frightened by his words again, and rubbed my eyes to look at it, but no matter how I doubted it, he was the Gu Chengzi I knew. How could all of a sudden, his art of speaking grow by leaps and bounds?

Could it be that he is only so good at speaking in front of his elders?

"You're all hungry, I've got a lot to eat here. If you're not in a hurry, eat a little and then go. ”

With the diligent support, Aunt Xue barely stood up. All of a sudden, her body seemed to have aged by dozens of years. On the surface, she seemed to be recovering. However, it is estimated that it will take a long time for the wounds in the heart or body to heal.

Seeing that she was walking unsteadily, I hurriedly ran to her side and wanted to help her. But I already have Xiaonuo in my hand, and I don't have any extra hands to do this thing.

At this moment, Gu Chengzi rushed in front of me and took my place. And quickly raised his hand and held Aunt Xue's elbow. After Aunt Xue happily praised him, the three of them slowly walked to the kitchen, leaving me alone in the cold wind.

It wasn't until diligence called out to me that I came to my senses and hurried to the kitchen. At this time, the kitchen table is already filled with all kinds of snacks, as well as all kinds of meat and vegetables.

I've seen almost all the snacks and ingredients here, and some of them have even been eaten and used. In a trance, I thought I was back in front of Lao Xu's small warehouse, back to the days of leisurely cooking in the desert.

"Joan?" called Diligent Diligence.

"Huh?" I blinked, and realized I was standing in the middle of the kitchen.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you always distracted? What are you thinking?"

"I didn't ...... It's okay......" I smiled wryly.

Aunt Xue picked out a few snacks, put them on the palm of my hand, and said gently and elegantly.

"Xiao Qiong, if you like to eat, take more. ”

"No, Aunt Xue, you better keep it for yourself. ”

"Thank you, Aunt Xue!"

Gu Chengzi rushed to my side, picked up the snacks that Aunt Xue gave me, opened the package without saying a word, and ate it like a jujube. Then he gave a thumbs up and said with a very intoxicated look.

"Wow, it's delicious! It's delicious! Joan, don't you thank Aunt Xue soon!" he pushed me with his elbow.

"Thank you...... Aunt Xue......"

After eating this bite, Gu Chengzi leaned into my ear and said very quietly.

"What Aunt Xue says, what you give, you just follow. You seem to be very humble like this, but in fact, Aunt Xue is very unhappy. ”

"Ah, that's right!"

Only then did I realize that there was something wrong with my approach, but fortunately, he came forward for me in time, so as not to make Aunt Xue unhappy.

But I didn't take a bite in the end, so I put back the snacks in my hand and said to Aunt Xue embarrassedly.

"Mother, we won't eat here. We still have important things to do. ”

"Okay, then you guys go get busy. Aunt Xue pursed her lips in frustration, but said nothing more.

"Chengzi, Joan, put Arnold back in the cabin. ”

"Okay. ”

When I was about to do this, Aunt Xue frowned and said excitedly.

"No, no, you can hand over the child to me!"
