After returning to the summer dormitory arranged by the school, Gardenia never worked in the pastry shop again, and she handed over her resignation letter to the pastry shop on the grounds that there was something at home that required her to go back.

When she heard the news from the shop owner and went to call Gardenia's, the reply she received was "The user you are calling is busy and can't be reached for the time being." Later, she sent a text message to Gardenia, which probably meant that she didn't say anything in advance when she went home, and she was careful on the road, and then Gardenia replied with a few words: "Got it, thank you." ”

When Xianzhi just came back from sending Jin Yu'er, in order not to arouse Xinxinya's suspicion in time, he deliberately stopped at the foot of the mountain for a while before going to the pastry shop to pick up Xinxinya from work, "Just act as if nothing happened!" It's better that way! In the future, just keep a good distance from Gardenia! Kenzhi couldn't help but think of this when he saw Shin Shin Ah smiling sweetly at him in the pastry shop that night.

The day after Xianzhi sent Gardenia back to school, he excused Xinxinya and said that the car repair shop was busy, so he didn't set foot in the pastry shop.

Xianzhi is not only escaping from the emotions that make him scratch his head, but he is also hesitant about whether to make Xinxinya know, in the concept of Xianzhi - sometimes it is better to be safe than to stir up a thousand waves with one stone!

When Xin Xinya returned to Xianzhi from work, she informed him that Gardenia had resigned, and there seemed to be a tight string in Xianzhi's heart that suddenly relaxed, and he thought, "It's okay to leave!" It's better if it never happened", and in this way, Kenyuki once again convinced himself that he didn't need to make the events of last night known. When Xin Xinya muttered in front of her and speculated about what was going on at Gardenia's house, so that she was in such a hurry to go home, Xianzhi at first silently took care of the things in the store and didn't talk much, and then directly diverted the topic to avoid Xinxinya from talking about all kinds of things about Gardenia.

After resigning, Gardenia packed up her clothes a little and got on the train home.

The train shuttled rapidly, and the clouds in the pale orange sky were left behind by the speeding train one after another. Gardenia's misty eyes looked at the sky, she really wanted to be like this train, to be able to forget the past without nostalgia behind her.

Nearly 2 hours after the train was transferred to the city suspension car, Gardenia was already standing silently downstairs in her own community, just as Qingluer came back from being a "volunteer for community activities".

Qing Lu'er greeted her sister in surprise when she saw her sister's figure: "Yo! Isn't this my sister? Why did this point come back, and I didn't say hello. As he spoke, he grabbed his sister's arm and said, "Xu misses me, let's go, old friends, don't shirk, please come to my house for a cup of tea." Gardenia was greeted by her sister's enthusiasm, and she couldn't help but feel a long-lost cordiality and steadfastness and a hidden sense of trust that would not be abandoned. She wanted to hug her sister and cry happily, but for the sake of her pride and dignity, she was willing to hide the humiliation and painful feelings of being rejected.

The love of the chief, the protection of the father, and the company of the younger sister made the gardenia gradually fade away the pain of a moment of frustration, and the gardenia had just returned home for a few days due to physical discomfort, and had been recuperating at home.

After Gardenia's body gradually recovered, Xiying had intended to ask her and Qingluer to participate in "community volunteer activities" together. She refused on the grounds that she was concentrating on writing her thesis, but her father not only did not express dissatisfaction with her decision, but also accepted it happily. This caused Qinglu'er to complain for a while, and after venting her resentment, she was scolded by her father: "If you can write professional papers as well as your sister, you can not participate in volunteers." Make the best use of things, make the best use of people. Your sister is suitable for writing professional papers, you are suitable for practicing the meaning of life, and your sister also participated in the 'work-study' for half a month? If you want to practice, she can be regarded as practice. Qinglu'er was speechless by her father, so she had to obediently finish the practical activities.

The reason why Xiying has no objection to the eldest daughter's decision to write a thesis is because the eldest daughter's academic performance has always been very good compared to the younger daughter, and when she first entered the university, she wrote a very famous academic article, and won a very authoritative "National Academic Article Competition" Silver Award. The second is because Xiying was ashamed that he didn't take good care of his frail and sick eldest daughter when he was young, and even didn't give her care and companionship during the most difficult year when his daughter dropped out of school due to illness, and now he really can't bear to force his eldest daughter to do what she doesn't want to do because of his own values.

Gardenia was originally more than a year older than Qingluer, Gardenia was relatively delicate when she was born, and she would inevitably suffer a crime when the weather was cold or the flu was prevalent, Sixiang sometimes inadvertently smiled and quipped: "Gardenia's body bones are the same as when I was a child, they are all the same weak and can't help the wind, and they often catch a cold and suffer from illness." Qinglu'er's body and bones are like her father, she is not afraid of wind and rain, she can swim in the water and run in the fire!"

What Gardenia said was not unreasonable, when Gardenia was in junior school, the dust and cold air of the cold season was very heavy that year, and Gardenia almost often had inflammation or fever and needed to take leave.

When Gardenia was about to survive the semester, the cold season of that year was full of goose feather snowflakes, and the spread of influenza caused by extreme weather changes made Gardenia unable to escape the epidemic.

When the season warmed up, after the school started a new curriculum, Gardenia's condition still did not improve at all, and the condition continued to deteriorate and developed into pneumonia, so Gardenia was dragged by the illness and did not set foot on campus in March.

Sixiang was also busy with her daughter's illness, and at that time, she was already physically and mentally exhausted, whether in marriage or raising two children.

Sixiang couldn't understand why, when she was the weakest and most in need of help, her lover was not there, and even during the Spring Festival family reunion, she stayed on the hospital bed in the hospital, accompanying her daughter to hang the bottle, but she couldn't find Qinglu'er's father at all.

Sixiang mentioned many times on the phone that if life continued like this, she would really choose to divorce.

Xiying is also worried about his marital conflicts, and every time he calls, he always tries his best to appease his wife who is close to collapse.

Xiying asked for help from the clan of the clan affairs department, hoping to send someone to appease his wife's mood, but for Sixiang, who had only seen her husband briefly three times in five years, the most essential problem was that she felt that her love and youth had died in the days, but she was not a person who could get by with food and clothing like Ma Daha. Although she is not having an affair to eliminate the loneliness in her daily life, but in the future, her life and her youth also need a love, if another person appears, can give her love ......, she dare not go down to imagine if that is the case, what kind of test she and Xiying will face.

The two children who are entangled at the fork in the road of their parents' marriage, after one of them sensitively perceives the exhaustion of maternal love, not only does his condition not improve, but his condition also deteriorates in the depression of grief.

Although Gardenia was young at that time, she still clearly knew that she had two contradictory feelings in her heart: one was to hope that her condition would get better and make Mu Chang happy; One is to drag this condition, so that Mu Chang hugs her more and cares about her more, because she is afraid that she will not see Mu Chang suddenly if she doesn't know that day. Whenever she lay on the hospital bed, saw Mu Chang carrying her back and silently wiped away her tears, or accidentally bumped into the helplessness and despair of Mu Chang who was talking to her father on the phone, she would feel an incomparable loneliness and fear, she was afraid that things would be worse and she could not do anything to change it.

After all, Qinglu'er is two years younger than Gardenia, an ignorant age, although her studies are not the best, but fortunately, she is still healthy, honest and obedient, and she spent her time at the elderly mother-in-law's house when her sister's illness was most serious.

Putting aside the emotional resentment, Sixiang is indeed a good mother who knows how to love her children, she knows that her children's hearts are fragile, and she is not willing to have any bad impact on her two daughters' childhood, so when she can restrain her negative emotions, Sixiang will try her best to restrain herself. In this way, the impact of the parents' emotional crisis on Qinglu'er, who has nothing to do, is not too deep, but it can't be said that there is no, at that time, what she was most afraid of was that after a happy day of campus life, she pushed open the door and saw only the empty room left by Mu Chang because he took his sister to see the doctor, or when she came home and saw her sister vomiting on the ground, Mu Chang was busy with a depressed face, and she could only sit quietly in the chair and watch all this that she didn't want to see.

Gardenia and Qinglu'er should be glad that their father and elder Mu Chang were in love when they were together; Thankfully, no one else has appeared to take his father's place in his heart; Fortunately, their material needs are quite sufficient, the family is not desperate because of financial hardship, and in their opinion, the most fortunate thing is that the father's application for transfer was approved in the warm season after Gardenia's serious illness, although the father is still very busy, but it is always his new place of work, close to home, and the usual vacation is much more than before.

Xiying was going to postpone the transfer application letter for another two years to give others more opportunities for transfer, but when she had to take a year off school because of pneumonia and frequent physical discomfort in Gardenia, and she felt ashamed of her wife for so many years, he began to have the idea of applying for transfer in advance.

When he returned home, looking at his haggard wife, his frail eldest daughter, and his younger daughter, who looked at him curiously and strangely, looked at him with vicissitudes and guilt.

Xiying said to Sixiang apologetically: "Over the years, you have worked hard, I am sorry for you." After he finished speaking, he walked over and hugged Sixiang, Sixiang did not avoid his hug, and all the years of suffering and grievances were silently presented with tears in this embrace.

Waiting for Xiying to calm his wife's emotions and looked back at the two children, he squatted down and hugged the children tightly, and kissed everyone on the cheek with love and guilt...... Your beard is prickly. ”

On the evening of the day Xiying came back, the family had just had dinner, Gardenia began to feel unwell again, and started a high fever, Xiying hurriedly took her eldest daughter and dragged her family to the hospital.

Qinglu'er lay in her father's arms and fell asleep deeply, Xiying hugged her little daughter, looking at his wife who was a little haggard under the light and felt uncomfortable, he helped his wife to lean on his arms, thinking about their love when they were young, recalling how much youth his wife had wasted over the years and suffered a lot with him, he just wanted to protect their mother and daughter at this time.

Qinglu'er fell asleep next to Gardenia's quilt by her parents after her sister's infusion, and in the morning her parents gently woke her up so as not to disturb her sister, and when she heard that she was going to send her to school, she seemed a little reluctant, and then her elderly mother-in-law came into the ward early.

"Mu Chang......" When Xiying shouted these words, she was a little dumbfounded.

"Mother-in-law" Qinglu'er also shouted.

Be quiet, your sister is still sleeping, be careful to scare her. After the old lady said this, she walked up to her son, hugged him, patted his arm resolutely, and said, "You guys eat this breakfast, Qinglu'er, I'll take her to school." Then he looked at Sixiang next to him and told his son: "You don't have many days to meet, you have to stay together more!" Qinglu'er will have a weekend holiday tomorrow, just waiting for Gardenia to be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and it's not too late for you to come and see me again. ”

Not long after the old mother took Qinglu'er to school, Gardenia woke up, when Mu Chang was feeding her breakfast, she didn't have much appetite, and later Gardenia said that she wanted to eat hot milk and longan hot bread that used to be eaten next to the hospital, Sixiang immediately put on a coat and went to buy breakfast for her daughter.

After Mu Chang went out to buy breakfast, Gardenia raised her eyes and looked at her father for a while, looking at her daughter's clean eyes looking at her, Xiying smiled at her daughter and said, "Gardenia, what's wrong?" ”

"Father, you're not going to go again, are you?"

"Hmm...... I...... I'm going back...... Don't cry!" Xiying wiped the tears from the corners of her daughter's eyes and said with pity: "When my father goes back this time, I will write an application for transfer, and I can transfer it in half a year at the earliest, and you can see your father often at that time." ”

"Father, you must love Mu Chang, don't leave us, I'm afraid I'll never see you and Mu Chang together again."

"Don't worry! Gardenia...... I'm going to love you and my sister. ”

"Father, my academic performance is very good, it's just that I fell behind because of illness, I will definitely keep up next year, I will study hard, I will take care of myself, I won't let myself get sick again, father, don't dislike us, don't leave us!"

"Good boy! Good boy! How could your father dislike you? You don't know how much your father loves you! Whether you are good or not, your father loves you the same. ”

The helplessness of his wife, the tearful retention of his daughter, and the persuasion of Mu Chang to his marriage all made Xiying make up her mind to be transferred. Half a year later, the transfer order also came as scheduled, and when the summer vacation was coming to an end, Sixiang took his two children to transfer to the S612 city network where Xiying was transferred. Xiying will go back to her hometown with the children to visit Mu Chang when they are on vacation, and of course they will also visit together:

A few years later, he moved to the uncle of the "W" city network;

a successful and busy uncle;

and an aunt who is married.

After taking a year off school due to illness when she was a child, she slowly recuperated much better at home, and she went to junior high school and women's high school with her sister, and was later admitted to a university in the same city, but these are all later words.
