Chapter 294: Heirloom
The thing was behind the couch, with only one corner exposed, and it looked like a book and a notebook.
"What is this? Why didn't you find it before? Fei Yue walked over in confusion, picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was indeed a notebook.
"The diary you wrote when you were a kid?" Li Shaoqing walked over and asked.
Fei Yue shook her head: "I've never written a diary, maybe it's my mother's." ”
As she spoke, she opened the notebook and saw that the date and format specially marked on it were really a diary.
"You're right." Fei Yue was slightly surprised, sat down on the sofa with Li Shaoqing, and looked at the diary seriously.
Only then did I find out that it was not Fei Yue's mother's diary, but an old man's, to be precise, it was dictated by an old man and recorded by someone else.
"In order to prevent Alzheimer's disease, my grandmother took the initiative to write a diary every day, which she dictated, and I helped her record it, so that she could recall the events of the day every night before going to bed, and organize the language to describe it and exercise her thinking.
——A certain year and a certain month, Fei Zhengxin. ”
This is a passage written on the title page.
Fei Yue couldn't help but be surprised when she saw it, and said, "Fei Zhengxin? This is my aunt, Fei Zhenglu's own sister. ”
"Oh? It's kind of interesting. Li Shaoqing raised his eyebrows.
"My aunt's grandmother, my great-grandmother, this turned out to be her diary." Fei Yue muttered, "I heard my mother say that my great-grandmother died not long after she and Fei Zhenglu got married, but I didn't expect to see her diary here. ”
"Did your mother-in-law leave it?" Li Shaoqing asked.
Fei Yue shook her head: "If you want to leave the diary to future generations, it should also be left to Fei Zhenglu or my aunt, it is impossible to give it to my mother, even if it is given to my mother, it is already divorced, and it is impossible for my mother to keep it." ”
"Yes." Li Shaoqing nodded.
"And, most importantly, after my mom died, I sorted through everything in the house and didn't find this diary." Fei Yue's eyes flashed, and her tone was meaningful.
Li Shaoqing said thoughtfully: "You mean that your diary was brought here by Fei Zhenglu?" ”
"Quite possibly." Fei Yue nodded and said, "I just don't know, what his purpose is." ”
"Look down and maybe you'll find some clues." Li Shaoqing said.
Fei Yue hummed, opened the first page of the diary, and looked at it with Li Shaoqing.
There is nothing special about the records in the diary, as the title page says, the daily life of Feiyue's great-grandmother is recorded, until when you turn to the middle part of the diary, Feiyue's mother appears in it, recording the scene of Feiyue's mother and Feizhenglu's marriage.
Since then, almost everything recorded in the diary has been related to Fei Yue's mother and Fei Zhenglu, and it is clear that the great-grandmother is very fond of the newlyweds and spends a day with them.
And at the very back of the diary, another thing is recorded that Feiyue's great-grandmother had a family heirloom jade bracelet.
When my great-grandmother's mother got married, my great-grandmother's maternal grandmother gave the bracelet to my great-grandmother's mother, and later when my great-grandmother got married, my great-grandmother's mother gave her the bracelet.
But the great-grandmother has no daughters, and the only granddaughter, that is, Feiyue's aunt, is still a staunch Dink and has never been married in her life, so the great-grandmother gave this bracelet to Feiyue's mother.
But for this bracelet, Fei Zhenglu's mother, that is, Feiyue's grandmother, has always wanted it, but because the relationship between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not very good, the great-grandmother has never wanted to give it to her, but she is afraid that she will hate and envy Feiyue's mother after knowing that the bracelet is in the hands of Feiyue's mother, so she only told Feiyue's aunt about the bracelet and asked her to keep it secret.
Other than that, no one knows.
And Fei Yue's mother actually didn't know that the bracelet was a family heirloom, she only thought it was an ordinary table and chair, because her great-grandmother was old at the time, and her brain was not very clear, and she didn't clearly tell Fei Yue's mother that it was an heirloom when she gave the bracelet.
Regarding these internal information, they were all recorded and supplemented by Fei Yue's aunt, and looking at the handwriting on the diary, it should have been written in two parts.
After the bracelet was recorded, and some daily life was written, the diary came to an abrupt end, and Feiyue's aunt wrote the news of her great-grandmother's death on the last page.
Closing the diary, Fei Yue thought for a moment and said: "Mom mentioned to me before, saying that my great-grandmother gave her a bracelet, and after she divorced Fei Zhenglu, she wanted to return the bracelet, but at that time, my great-grandmother had passed away, and my mother didn't know who to return the bracelet to, and thought that it was a part of my great-grandmother's heart, so she kept it herself. ”
"Does your aunt know about this?" Li Shaoqing asked.
Fei Yue shook her head and said, "My aunt died young, and when my parents were not divorced, she died of cancer, and I didn't know what happened later. ”
"I see." Li Shaoqing nodded and said, "In other words, no one knows about the fact that the bracelet is a family heirloom." ”
"Yes, looking at what is written in this diary, although my grandmother knew that my great-grandmother had a family heirloom bracelet, she didn't know exactly what that bracelet looked like, she had never seen it."
After a pause, he added, "So, she won't know that the bracelet my mother brought is a family heirloom given to her by my great-grandmother." ”
"It seems that this diary was brought by Fei Zhenglu, he didn't know where he got this diary, and when he saw the record about the bracelet, he thought of coming here to find the bracelet." Li Shaoqing suddenly realized.
Fei Yue nodded and said, "This is really something he can do, but the bracelet is indeed their family's thing, and I am not rare." ”
Fei Yue stood up and entered the bedroom: "I'll go look for the bracelet, it's in my mother's jewelry box." ”
Li Shaoqing said "yes" and sat on the sofa waiting for her.
After a while, Fei Yue came out with a box, she opened the box and showed it to Li Shaoqing, and said, "This is that bracelet, I saw my mother wear it when I was a child." ”
"Are you going to give it back?" Li Shaoqing asked.
Fei Yue nodded and said, "Yes, other people's family heirlooms, we don't need to take them." ”
Li Shaoqing picked up the bracelet, looked at the light and said, "It's worth tens of millions." ”
"Then you have to pay it back." Fei Yue said, "However, such an expensive thing, no wonder Fei Zhenglu has to run so far to come back to find it, and he doesn't tell me what he is looking for, maybe he is afraid that I will not give it to her." ”
When Li Shaoqing heard this, he sneered and said, "You are Mrs. Li, what do you want?" ”
"That's right, he has the heart of a villain and the belly of a gentleman." Fei Yue grinned and buried her head in Li Shaoqing's arms.
Li Shaoqing touched her hair and said, "Then I'll make an appointment for you to meet him." ”
"Okay." Fei Yue nodded.
Li Shaoqing took out his mobile phone to make arrangements.
Since Fei Yue and Fei Zhenglu completely tore their faces and fell out, they deleted each other's contact information, Fei Yue couldn't contact Fei Zhenglu, but Li Shaoqing could, he had his own methods.
"What do you want to do now?" After the arrangement, Li Shaoqing put down his mobile phone and asked Fei Yuedao.
Fei Yue yawned and said, "I'm a little tired, take a break for a while, and then go to eat, okay?" ”
"Okay." Li Shaoqing took off her coat and covered her with it, asking her to rest her head on her lap.
"You can rest for a while, too." Fei Yue said to Li Shaoqing.
Li Shaoqing shook his head: "I'm not tired, you can sleep." ”
Fei Yue knew that he was in good physical condition, so she didn't say anything more and closed her eyes.
Her head rested on Li Shaoqing's lap, Li Shaoqing didn't move the whole time, staring at her quietly, her eyes were gentle, and the corners of her mouth were smiling, as if she was looking at her like this, and she was already the ultimate happiness.
Time passed slowly, and after half an hour, Fei Yue woke up, sat up, rubbed her eyes, and said, "I'm awakened from hunger, let's go eat." ”
"Book a hotel and ask Aunt Liu's family to go with you." Li Shaoqing said.
"Okay, you're so thoughtful." Fei Yue praised him.
Li Shaoqing laughed, kissed her on the face, and accepted her praise.
The two of them laughed and got up from the sofa, left the house, locked the door, and knocked on the door of Aunt Liu's house next door.
It was Xiao Ming who opened the door, and when he saw Li Shaoqing and Fei Yue, he immediately happily welcomed the two of them in, and said, "Sister and brother-in-law, you came just in time, my mother just asked me to go next door and ask you what you want to eat at night, and she went to buy vegetables." ”
"Don't bother, I booked a hotel, let's go together." Li Shaoqing said lightly.
While speaking, they had already walked to the living room, and this sentence was heard by Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu took the lead in retorting and said, "Don't be so polite, Auntie will make you whatever you want to eat." ”
"Aunt Liu, you're polite, it's rare for us to come back, and we haven't seen each other for so many years, what's wrong with you inviting you to have a meal with Uncle Liu and Xiao Ming?" Fei Yue pursed her lips and said to Aunt Liu coquettishly.
Aunt Liu suddenly didn't know what to say, in this case, if she insisted on it, it seemed a little unreasonable.
"Okay, since the hotel has been decided, let's go, it's all your own family, don't worry so much." Uncle Liu Liu opened the board and made a decision for Aunt Liu.
"So be it." Aunt Liu nodded and asked again, "Shall we go now, or will we wait a while?" ”
Li Shaoqing glanced at Fei Yue and said, "Now, Yueyue is hungry." ”
When Fei Yue heard this, she covered her face embarrassedly.
Aunt Liu laughed and said, "Okay, change your clothes, pack up, and we'll go." ”
With that, the family of three entered the bedroom.
Li Shaoqing hummed and sat on the sofa with Fei Yue to wait for them.
