The steamer has gradually drifted away, and the wharf of Jiangcheng has gradually become blurred, where the quaint attics, the high-rise streets, and the bustling dock shops have all gradually disappeared from sight.

Mo Xiaoxiao held the child in her hand and stood outside the cabin, quietly staring at the already hazy distance, her eyes glazed and thoughtful.

Xiao Er slowly walked out of the cabin, and saw Mo Xiaoxiao standing alone in the railing, looking into the distance in a daze, Xiao Er stood beside her and asked her gently: "Miss, the road is far away, come in and eat some snacks, I specially bought some mung bean cakes on the street this morning, I remember that you like to eat them very much." ”

Mo Xiaoxiao didn't even look back, but still looked into the distance, the quiet and vague scenery, "Xiao'er, you eat, I don't have an appetite yet." ”

"Miss, what are you thinking? How to look at the way you are preoccupied. Are you reluctant to leave Bizhou?" Xiao Er asked tentatively.

"No, I just feel a little stuffy in the cabin." Mo Xiaoxiao shook her head and said lightly.

Xiao Er also walked to his side, lying on the railing, her eyes looked at the place where she looked, and said casually: "Miss, Mr. He has not heard from him for a long time, do you think he has forgotten about you?" ”

Mo Xiaoxiao paused suddenly, her heartbeat seemed to be half a beat slower, the light in her eyes suddenly dimmed, her face changed slightly, she became a little cold, she was silent and stopped talking.

Xiao Er reacted suddenly, only then did she realize that she had said something she shouldn't have said, and suddenly turned her head and carefully looked at her expression.

"Miss, I'm sorry, I... I didn't mean it, I ......" Xiao Er saw Mo Xiaoxiao's sullen and unhappy appearance, and hurriedly played a round.

Mo Xiaoxiao was silent for a long time, then suddenly turned around and said lightly: "I believe in his person, he will definitely not be the kind of ruthless and unrighteous person, if he really forgets me, then he just complains that we are fated." ”

After Mo Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she walked towards the cabin with the child in her arms without looking back, Xiao Er took a long time to react, and she regretted mentioning He Yuwen a little.

"Look at my brain, what is not good, but what to mention at this time!" Xiao Er patted her head lightly, said with self-pity, and hurriedly followed into the cabin.

Rushing around, at dusk on the second day, the boat finally stopped at the dock in Yangzhou, and Mo Xiaoxiao and Xiao Er slowly got off the boat.

As soon as the two got off the boat, an old man greeted them, the dock was still bustling with people, Xiao Er was carrying a large box in his hand, and it was very difficult to walk in the dense crowd.

"Miss, Miss Xiao'er, you have finally arrived, and I have been waiting for you here for a long time." When the old man saw the two of them, he surrounded him, followed by a young man.

"It turned out to be Steward Liu, Uncle Liu, why are you here?" Xiao Er originally looked tired, but immediately became frowning and smiling, and said excitedly to the man.

"Miss Xiao'er, give me something, the old lady called me, let me come to the dock to meet you!" The man who was called Uncle Liu said to her with a smile, and at the same time took the box that Xiao Er handed over casually, and handed it to the young man behind him.

"So that's the case, it's hard Uncle Liu." Xiao Er smiled, only then did she notice Mo Xiaoxiao, and said to Mo Xiaoxiao again: "Miss, this is Steward Liu, Uncle Liu, it was Mrs. who asked him to come here to pick us up!" ”

Mo Xiaoxiao originally looked dazed, she just felt that this person was familiar, but she couldn't remember it after a long time, Xiao Er thought about it when she said this, smiled at him awkwardly and said: "It turned out to be Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu has worked hard for you, I'm sorry, I've made you wait for a long time!" ”

Uncle Liu shook his head, and said respectfully: "It's okay, it's okay, the eldest lady is polite to me, don't say anything about it, let's go home quickly, so as not to make the old lady wait for a long time." ”

After that, the few people continued to walk in the direction of the Yang Mansion.

After a while, a few people arrived at the door of the house, the door of the Yang Mansion was still brightly lit, and there were two big red lanterns hanging outside the vermilion lacquer gate, and the two stone lions at the door of the house were more and more beautiful.

"Miss." As soon as Mo Xiaoxiao walked to the door, the two family guards at the door saluted her.

The gate was wide open, and the spacious courtyard was still familiar, and the lights illuminated the courtyard like a hundred days.

"Xiao'er, you put your things in my room first, and then you go down to freshen up, rest early, you have worked hard all the way, settle it early, I'll go see my mother." Mo Xiaoxiao entered the door and turned back to Xiao Er.

After saying that, Xiao Er picked up those salutes and wanted to walk in the direction of the backyard, but Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered something, and turned her head to stop Xiao Er.

"That's right, Xiao Er wait!" , When Xiao Er turned her head, Mo Xiaoxiao slowly walked towards her, Xiao Er saw this, and hurriedly handed over the luggage in her hand to the family on the side, and Mo Xiaoxiao carefully handed over the child in her hand to Xiao Er!

"Xiao'er, you can also take the child over, it's so late today, tell your mother tomorrow." Mo Xiaoxiao handed over the child to her before he said.

Xiao Er nodded, hugged the child and went to the backyard, and Mo Xiaoxiao continued to walk towards the front yard hall.

When I arrived outside the hall, I saw that the door of the hall was wide open, and the lights were bright, and from time to time the voice of the mother and the voice of the child could be heard.

The corners of Mo Xiaoxiao's mouth rose slightly, and after thinking of wanting to see her mother, her heart became more and more excited, and she couldn't wait to say as soon as she stepped into the door: "Mother, I'm back." ”

As soon as I saw the door, I saw Lin Yushu sitting on a lacquered wooden chair in the living room, holding a rattle to coax the child in her hand, she was half-bent over, smiling and teasing the child in Song Xiwan's hand.

Lin Yushu suddenly heard Mo Xiaoxiao's voice, and hurriedly raised her head, and saw Mo Xiaoxiao standing in front of her with a smile, looking at herself with a smile, she quickly stood up, first for a while, and then immediately reacted, leaned over towards Mo Xiaoxiao, holding Mo Xiaoxiao's hands with both hands, her eyes were full of her, and she was so excited that she couldn't speak for a while.

"Xiao Yu, you are finally back, my child, how have you lost weight, are you not usually eating well, the last time I heard your father write a letter to say that you were seriously ill, and it happened to coincide with your sister-in-law giving birth to Nanhua, and my mother couldn't take a break to look at you, I was worried about you to death, I was worried about you all day long, and when I saw that you were still safe and sound, my mother's heart was put down."

Looking at the mother in front of her who said affectionately word by word, Mo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be moved, and forced her to comfort her with her emotions: "Mother, I know that it's me who doesn't make you worry, but don't you see that I'm coming back safe and sound?" You see I'm doing well! ”

Mo Xiaoxiao said lightly, while looking at her with a hippie smile, pinching her face, and her playful appearance proved that she was fine.

"That's good, that's good, mother doesn't want to worry about you in pairs, each on one side." Lin Yushu finally smiled and said again.

"Hey, sister-in-law Wan'er, you haven't rested yet, it's already late." Only then did Mo Xiaoxiao see Song Xiwan who was on the side, holding the child and looking at her mother and daughter with a smile on her face, and the touching scene of reuniting after a long absence.

"Your sister-in-law is with me and waiting for you to come back." Lin Yushu smiled and said hurriedly.

"Xiao Yu, you're back, I'm actually fine, it's still early, I slept too early at night, I have a lot of dreams at night, and I still can't sleep peacefully, so I have to wait for you to come back here, I want to talk to you!" Song Xiwan said softly like water.

Song Xiwan was wearing a pale yellow dress, the gentle color lined her snow-white skin as white as snow, her long black hair was tied behind her head with a hairpin, and her face was slightly powdered.

"It's rare that my sister-in-law has a heart, my brother is busy with work and doesn't often accompany him at home, so it's hard for your sister-in-law." Mo Xiaoxiao smiled slightly and said again.

Song Xiwan shook her head slightly, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and said gently: "It's okay, he is busy with his career and my uncle and my aunt at home, he can rest assured that he is working hard, I can't do anything for him except to look at the child and chat with my uncle, he is hard!" ”
