Zhao Yi raised his head and looked at her silently: "What's wrong, what?" ”

"Wait, I'll fetch it."

With that, Mo Xiaoxiao turned around and went to the table on the side, opened a drawer at the front, and took out something from it.

"This is ......" Zhao Yi watched Mo Xiaoxiao take out something from the drawer, Mo Xiaoxiao didn't speak, just handed it to him.

Suddenly, Zhao Yi's expression became heavy, his brows were furrowed, and there was a heavy look in his eyes, as if he had seen something very serious.

"You should be most familiar with this thing, right?" Mo Xiaoxiao put the thing in his hand, and carefully hugged the child from his hand.

I saw Zhao Yi squeeze the thing tightly in his hand, his expression was heavy, and his eyes were solemn: "This ...... How do I not recognize this, this is my mother before she died, she gave my sister with her own hands, and it is also the last thing my mother left to my sister, although this thing is not valuable, it is not a treasure, but my sister sees it more important than her life, and she has always carried it with her all these years. ”

Mo Xiaoxiao nodded, gently put the child on the crib on the side, and then said slowly: "Well, I can understand your feelings, this is also Mrs. Gu personally handed over to me before entrusting the child to me, she said that if anyone doesn't believe that I personally entrusted the child to you, let me hand over this thing, and you will believe it, but now it seems that there is no need to wait until that time, and thank you for your trust in me, since this thing is the only thing left by your mother and sister, Then I'll give it back to you. ”

Zhao Yi held the gourd-shaped pendant in his hand, and the water chestnut of the pendant made his hand hurt, but he still held it quietly and refused to let go, he looked at the pendant, his eyes were already red, and the sound seemed to come from the valley.

"Seeing this thing is like seeing people, but I didn't expect that what my sister used to regard as a treasure has now become her relic." Zhao Yi said bitterly.

"I can understand the feeling that things are wrong, but from ancient times to the present, there has never been anything that we have been spared if we don't want it to happen, Brother Zhao's festival is smooth." Mo Xiaoxiao looked at him so uncomfortable that it seemed that even breathing would follow her heartache, which also aroused her pain for the sudden loss of Song Xiwan.

Zhao Yi was immersed in grief, I don't know how long it has been? , He put the pendant into the pocket of his clothes, raised his head to look at Miss Mo, saluted her, and said: "Thank you Miss Mo, your kindness is unforgettable to my Zhao Yi, the child will be entrusted to you to take care of, I also have to do my own thing, I used to feel that everything was too late, but now it seems that everything is imminent, otherwise it will become a lifelong regret." Leave! ”

"Well, Brother Zhao, I understand."

After speaking, Zhao Yi turned around and left without looking back, and Miss Mo watched Zhao Yi's tall figure pass out of the afterglow of the sunset and gradually disappear.

There were only two sleeping children left in the house, and Miss Mo was alone, looking at the empty house, I don't know why, and an indescribable sense of loss slipped through her heart.

It seems that everything is still in time, but it seems that everything has already been done and there is nothing that can be done.

Time flickered, and it was time to shuttle from a cold autumn day to another spring day.

The Yang family has returned to its previous peace, but it seems to be a lot less joyful and joyful than before, even in the spring season, the warm sun shines on the corners of the Yang Mansion, but the inexplicable dead silence in the air is lingering.

Yang Huaiping brothers, since the funeral of Song Xiwan, went to Bizhou in a hurry, the Yang family's business is becoming more and more prosperous, and the current Yang family can be said to have an unshakable position in Yangzhou.

It is said that officials and businessmen seem to have an indescribable close relationship since ancient times, the Yang family is rapidly increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, Yangzhou's largest official family, the Zhao family, Zhao Wanggu is already a person in the age of the sixtieth year, so he has announced his retirement a few years ago, and now he is just at home for a long time, but he is in good health, the only son he now admits is the current commander-in-chief of the Yangzhou Military Government, Zhao Tancen is talented and intelligent, although he is not a literati and inkman, and does not have some literature, but he is a good hand at leading troops, Although he is still slightly lacking in this regard, with Zhao Wanggu's guidance, he is becoming more and more famous in Yangzhou.

Zhao Tancen has Zhao Wanggu's old scheming, and he also keeps a close eye on the personnel around him, he will hardly let go of any opportunity to make himself stronger, at present, Yangzhou is outstanding in the business world of the Yang family, so he has been paying attention to these days early on, Zhao Tancen began to secretly win over the relationship with the Yang family, running to the Yang family from time to time, and secretly helping the Yang family in business, but he will not do loss-making business, the reason why he does this is just to win each other, There is also the need to keep the Yang family under his control, lest the Yang family's wings harden in the future, and it will not be.

In the past few months, except for Zhao Tancen who often comes to Yang's house to walk around, He Yuhua comes the most, he always says that he has talked to Yang Zhe in Bizhou before, he thinks that Xiaobao is his godson, Mo Xiaoxiao doesn't know if it's true or not, he has never heard Yang Zhe talk about it, even if he doesn't believe him, but He Yuhua still runs to Yang's house several times a month, under the pretext of coming to visit his godson, every time he comes to Mo Xiaoxiao, he doesn't have a good face with him, knowing that he is not a drunkard, but it seems that his enthusiasm and carefulness have moved Lin Yushu, Lin Yushu was full of joy for this young man.

In the early morning, the sun is slightly drunk, the peach blossoms in the yard have come, and you can smell a fragrance of flowers when the breeze blows around, which makes people feel refreshed, and it seems that the cold winter has completely disappeared.

In the courtyard of the Yang family, Mo Xiaoxiao and Lin Yushu had morning tea leisurely under a pear blossom tree in their yard.

"Xiao Yu, it's been almost half a year since your sister-in-law died, Xiaobao and Xi'er have been taking care of me these days, I'm getting older and older, this family is still supporting you, but this girl's family can't be closed for a lifetime, you're not young, my mother plans to find a good family for you, what do you think?"

While she was eating, Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly heard Lin Yushu's voice, and when she talked about it, she seemed to be looking at her heart calmly.

Mo Xiaoxiao was holding a teacup in her hand, and suddenly she paused, slightly silent and did not speak, obviously a little caught off guard, she had never thought about such a question since she said goodbye to him, and now when she suddenly talked about this problem, it made her in a trance.

"What's wrong? What do you think, little gardenia?" Lin Yushu saw that Mo Xiaoxiao was silent, so she put down the cup in her hand and asked her again.

Mo Xiaoxiao reacted at this time, she hurriedly put down the cup in her hand, smiled at Lin Yushu embarrassedly, scratched her head again, and said casually: "Mother, why did you suddenly talk about this, I don't have that plan yet." ”

Lin Yushu looked at her squirming appearance, and continued: "How is this sudden, you are not young anymore, where is there a woman who has been staying in the boudoir, in fact, I wanted to talk about this issue before, but the things at home are big and small, and they are really cumbersome, so this is delayed, and now that the family has calmed down, when should I plan for your affairs." ”

"Mother, in fact, I'm not in a hurry, if I get married in a hurry now, then you will have to worry about everything in the family, my daughter is really unbearable, besides, my brother didn't come back, and the letter I sent him was not heard from, he probably didn't know that such a big thing happened at home, and besides......" Mo Xiaoxiao didn't even dare to look at Lin Yushu, she began to look around for reasons and tried to sift over.

"That's enough." Unexpectedly, before the words were finished, Lin Yushu directly interrupted the words, Lin Yushu became serious, her face was a little ugly, and she seemed to be a little angry: "Don't keep talking about family affairs, your mother and I are not old enough to even manage the trivial matters at home, you say these are all excuses, don't think I don't know, don't you still think about He Yuwen in your heart?"

Mo Xiaoxiao lowered her head and stopped talking, Lin Yushu was right, she was still thinking of him in her heart.

"If my mother knows, why did she deliberately come to ask me!" Mo Xiaoxiao didn't look at her, just looked down at the corner of her clothes slightly, and said casually.
