All day, the whole sky seemed to be covered by a large gray cloth, and it was very gloomy and damp.

In the evening, snowflakes finally fluttered in the air.

The snowflakes are not big, far less light and free than when the goose feathers fall, but in a short time, the ground has been covered with a thin layer of snow white.

Sang Zhi sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his room, looking out the window at the fluttering snow.

It's been the fifth day since Men Shaoting went to the earthquake area, and there is still no news back.

Sang Zhi's heart also slowly sank and sank little by little as time passed.

couldn't wait for the news of Men Shaoting, and she couldn't sleep comfortably for a few days.

Whether it is Men Shaoting's mobile phone number or whose it is, as long as she knows, she will work hard to call all the contact information that can come to the earthquake area and go to the earthquake area every day.

However, every time I dial out with hope, I am full of disappointment and sad to listen to the temporarily unreachable voice from my mobile phone.

Men Shaoting, where are you and what is the situation?

You said that you would report your safety to your family when you arrived, why did you not hear from you for five days?

Men Shaoting, you promised me that I would come back alive, don't leave me and the baby, don't let the baby be born without a father, okay?

Her cheeks pressed against the cold glass, and the heat exhaled from her mouth and nose condensed into a circle of mist on the cold glass, obscuring her eyes.

But Sang Zhi himself couldn't tell whether it was tears that blurred his vision or the mist, he only felt that his eyes were white and misty, and he couldn't see anything really.

Lin Yaran gently pushed the door in from outside, looking at the stunned mulberry branch sitting helplessly on the floor, and couldn't help but feel distressed and uncomfortable.

Gently walked up to her, reached out and gently put it on her obviously emaciated shoulder, and whispered, "Zhizhi, get up, go downstairs with Mom for dinner." ”

Shaking his head slightly, his eyes were still looking at the snowflakes fluttering outside the window, and he said weakly: "Mom, I'm not hungry, I can't eat, you go and eat." ”

Sighing, Lin Yaran stretched out her hand and dragged her up from the ground.

"Don't sit on the floor, be careful of catching a cold."

Sang Zhi was passively dragged by Lin Yaran to the bed and sat down, looking at her mother-in-law with a pair of teary eyes, her lips squirmed for a long time before she made a sound, "Mom, it's the fifth day, and there is no news from Shaoting yet...... He ......, "Could it have been sacrificed?"

In the second half of the sentence, Sang Zhi didn't dare to say it, and he couldn't say it.

But even if I didn't say it, I couldn't hide the anxiety and fear in my heart.

This kind of frightened days were so torturous that she even began to regret why she didn't go with him in the first place!

Lin Yaran patted her on the back and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't think about it, you must know that the situation in the earthquake area is very complicated now, and it is normal for communication to be poor." Actually, we all have to think on the bright side, at this time, no news is the best news, isn't it? ”

"No news is the best news." Sang Zhi muttered and repeated her mother-in-law's words, raised her head, and looked at Lin Yaran with a puzzled expression.

Lin Yaran nodded and explained: "You think, the number of casualties and missing people in the earthquake area is reported on TV every day, and the identity of Shaoting is not ordinary, if there is really an accident, it will definitely be reported." But we don't hear anything like this every day when we stay in front of the TV, do we? ”

Sang Zhi nodded blankly.

That means that he is fine, there must be nothing, and he is devoting himself to the busy and heavy rescue and disaster relief work. So, don't worry so much all day long, trust him, you won't let yourself be in trouble. ”

Lin Yaran's words undoubtedly gave Sang Zhi a heart booster, making her helpless and floating heart suddenly settle down a lot.

nodded thoughtfully, what her mother-in-law said made sense, she should believe that Men Shaoting would definitely not let her have anything to do, and she would definitely come back well.

"Mom, you're right, I'm wrong, I shouldn't let myself be in anxiety and fear every day, scare myself, we should have confidence in Shaoting."

"That's right," Lin Yaran smiled, "Mom knows that you are a strong and optimistic child, and she will figure it out." You're still pregnant, and you can't think about it all day long for the sake of your child, you know? ”

Sang Zhi nodded, "Mom, I'm sorry, I made you worry." ”

"Okay, let's go, let's go downstairs and eat together."

The two got up and walked towards the door.

Downstairs, there was a sudden exclamation from Men Yuewei, "Mom, Sister Zhizhi, come and see, my brother, my brother!" ”

"Shaoting? Shaoting is back? ”

Sang Zhi's heart was shocked, stunned for a moment, and then ran downstairs with his hands on his stomach, and couldn't help shouting as he ran, "Shaoting, Shaoting......"

Behind her, Lin Yaran followed her closely in fear, reaching out and grabbing her several times, telling her to slow down, and then slow down.

"Xiaowei, where is your brother?"

hurriedly rushed downstairs, but saw that the living room was empty except for Men Yuewei, and there was no one else.

Sang Zhi stretched out his hand and grabbed Men Yuewei's arm tightly, and asked anxiously, "Where is your brother?" ”

Men Yuewei gritted her teeth and inhaled to look at Sang Zhi, pulled the corners of her mouth, and said aggrievedly: "Sister Zhizhi, you scratched me." ”

Sang Zhi realized that his hand was clutching Men Yuewei's arm at the moment, and he blushed slightly in embarrassment for his gaffe, quickly let go of his hand, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm too anxious." ”

Men Yuewei smiled understandingly, pouted and pouted into the TV, "Oh, where is my brother!" ”

Sang Zhi looked into the TV and saw that in a decaying ruin, Men Shaoting was being interviewed by reporters in dust.

He wore a steel helmet on his head, and his military uniform was covered with dust and mud. The originally handsome face was almost covered with mud, but the inky black eyes were still sharp and firm, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't even tell that it was him.

Due to the preciousness of time, Men Shaoting did not say much, but simply answered a few questions from reporters, disappeared in front of the camera, and devoted himself to rescue and disaster relief work.

"Shaoting, Mom, it's Shaoting, he's fine, he's fine!"

Although it was just a hurried glance at him on TV, it was enough to make Sang Zhi want to jump up excitedly.

He smiled happily, but tears of joy kept welling up in his eyes.

Lin Yaran also had a flash of crystal light in her excited eyes, and nodded, "He's fine, Mom knows he'll be fine." ”

Since the earthquake in Liucheng, Mr. Men has not stayed at home for a day.

Every day, I go to the army early and come back very late.

He is still busy with the company's affairs, but I heard that he has also donated bad money and materials to the disaster area in the name of the company.

This gave Sang Zhi a new understanding of Menzheng.

For a long time, Sang Zhi thought that Menzheng was a very pure businessman who was mercenary.

And pure businessmen, in Sang Zhi's view, are often only interested in profits, but lack a sense of social responsibility.

But in this matter, Sang Zhi's opinion of Menzheng has changed.

This father-in-law, although he also values interests, is also very socially responsible.

But why is Men Shaoting always indifferent to this father?

Waking up thirsty in the middle of the night, Sang Zhi yawned and went downstairs with a glass of water to fetch water.

When he came out of the kitchen, he heard movement in the living room, and walked over with water, only to see the door walking in from outside with a bag, and a few snowflakes falling on the collar of his coat, which melted and disappeared the moment he entered the door.

"Dad, you're back so late?" Sang Zhi held a glass of water and looked at the door with some surprise.

Menzheng didn't seem to expect to meet someone in the living room so late, he was stunned for a moment, saw that it was a mulberry branch, nodded, and said, "Well, I'm a little busy today, and I'm late to come back." ”

"Oh, did you have dinner then? Would you like to make you some late-night snacks? ”

Looking at Menzheng's tired expression, Sang Zhi couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart.

"No, I've eaten outside. It's so late, why haven't you slept yet? ”

Although talking to Sang Zhi alone, Menzheng still inevitably felt a little awkward, but it was much more natural than Sang Zhi had just married into the Men family.

"I'm thirsty, come down and get a glass of water to drink."

Sang Zhi said, and raised the water glass in his hand with some embarrassment.

The door was nodding and was about to say something, but the phone rang.

glanced at Sang Zhi, picked up his mobile phone, and walked to the side to answer.

"What? Can't deliver the items donated by the company to the disaster area now? Okay, I see. You are like this, since the special delivery vehicle can't be delivered, then our company will send it by itself. Okay, you can arrange it, and be sure to find the driver with the best driving skills to be responsible for the transportation and ensure the safety of the personnel. ”

Listening to Menzheng's words, Sang Zhi couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration for this father-in-law.

At a time of national crisis, it is really commendable to be an entrepreneur like my father-in-law.

hung up the phone, and was stunned to find that Sang Zhi was still standing in place and did not go upstairs, and the door was stunned, "Why don't you go up to rest?" ”

"Oh, I'm going up, dad should rest early." Mulberry said, turned around, and slowly walked up the stairs.

"The ......," the door said hesitantly.

Sang Zhi stopped, turned around, and looked at him with a puzzled expression, "Dad, is there anything else you have to do?" ”

The door was a little embarrassed and pulled the corners of his mouth, and said quite unnaturally: "I've been so busy these days that I haven't bothered to ask, is there any news from the Shaoting?" ”

From his concerned gaze, Sang Zhi could see a father's worry and concern for his son.

What kind of misunderstanding or conflict has occurred between this father and son, so that a pair of father-son relationships, which should be harmonious and harmonious, are as stiff and difficult to resolve as they are now?

"Oh, Shaoting is fine. We saw him on TV today, and he was interviewed by Remember. He looked tired, but he was in good spirits. It's just that I feel like I've lost a lot of weight. ”

"Oh, it's fine."

The door was muttering to himself, carrying his bag and going upstairs.

When passing by, Sang Zhi suddenly couldn't help but speak, "Dad......"

Door was stunned, turned around, and looked at her, "What else is going on?" ”

Sang Zhi opened his mouth, and when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized that this time and place was really not a good time to talk about that topic. So he changed the subject and said, "It's nothing, I just want to say goodnight to you." ”

Menzheng was slightly stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Good night." ”

Then he crossed the mulberry branch and walked upstairs.

Sang Zhi shrugged his shoulders with the water glass, drank the glass of water, turned around and went to the kitchen to pour a glass, and then went upstairs.

When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn.

Maybe it was because she learned that Men Shaoting was safe and sound, and finally let her relax. This is the night that Sang Zhi slept most soundly after Men Shaoting left.

At the breakfast table, there were only two people, Lin Yaran and Sang Zhi, who seemed much more deserted compared to usual.

Thinking of the scene of meeting the door in the living room last night, Sang Zhi couldn't help but ask: "Mom, did Shaoting and Dad have any misunderstandings?" Why do you feel that Shaoting's attitude towards his father has always been very indifferent? ”
