402 left you behind
Gu Nianbin laughed all of a sudden, and said to Du Xiaoxian: "You are so stupid, you believe such nonsense." ”
Du Xiaoxian was not as optimistic as him, and took out the small note to show him: "This is what your father wrote, right?" ”
Gu Nianbin's smile froze on his face, he recognized the handwriting, it was his father's.
He was a little stunned: "This is ......"
"This is what your father left for my grandma." Du Xiaoxian told Gu Nianbin what he heard from Du Huaishan. In the end, she said: "Although my father is not a good person, he never tells lies, and he will not break the rules of the mountains, so he ......"
"So you think it's true?" Gu Nianbin frowned: "Even if this is really written by my father, it doesn't mean anything, there must be some misunderstanding in the middle." ”
Du Xiaoxian said: "It's better to do a paternity test, that one is the most authoritative." ”
Hearing her proposal, for some reason, Gu Nianbin's heart jumped, and after a while, he said, "I'll ask my dad first." He carefully folded the little note and put it in his wallet.
Both of them were silent, as if suddenly they didn't know what to say.
The sun jumps on the windowsill, the breeze blows the curtains, the light and shadow on the ground flicker, and there are tiny dust floating in the narrow patch of sunlight, endlessly......
After a long time, Gu Nianbin said, "Don't think about it, it'll be fine, I'll go cook." ”
"Brother......" Du Xiaoxian wanted to speak and stopped.
"Don't call me brother in the future, just call me by name." Gu Nianbin said in a joking tone: "It's your brother who made a fuss out of shouting." ”
Du Xiaoxian smiled and didn't make a sound, she knew that Gu Nianbin was suspicious, no matter what the result was, she and the Gu family always had a relationship.
Gu Nianbin casually cooked two or three dishes, and the two of them ate the most tasteless meal ever. Gu Nianbin probably felt that he hadn't figured anything out, and he was messing around here, which was really not his style, so he cheered up and chatted with Du Xiaoxian, and said something about her recent work, saying that Mencius praised her for her strong receptivity and quick learning, and asked her not to be proud and make persistent efforts.
What he said, Du Xiaoxian nodded and said yes, she has actually passed the most uncomfortable time, because it is simple, it is easy to settle down, although she doesn't talk much, she seems calmer than Gu Nianbin.
Seeing Gu Nianbin talking to herself, she gently put her hand on the back of the man's hand: "Don't think too much, we have gone through so many difficulties to come together, and it will be fine." ”
"I know." Gu Nianbin finally quieted down, pulled out his hand and covered the back of the woman's hand, the back of her hand was very delicate, much better than when she first came back, but the thin callus in her palm was still there, and it could be clearly felt when it was covered on the back of his hand.
"In the afternoon, you have a good rest at home, and I will go to the ancestral house to ask things clearly." He looked at her with a soft gaze: "Trust me, it's okay." ”
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home." Du Xiaoxian nodded.
Gu Nianbin had something in his heart, and he didn't want to delay for a moment, so he went out after eating and drinking a cup of tea, the car turned around under the tree, and he stretched out his head to look at Du Xiaoxian: "Don't go anywhere, wait for me at home." ”
"I will, don't worry, I'm not going anywhere." Du Xiaoxian seemed to promise: "No matter what happens, I will be with you." ”
Gu Nianbin glanced at her deeply, the throttle was tapped, and he slowly drove towards the gate, he looked at her in the right mirror, the thin figure was getting farther and farther away, gradually turning into a small black dot, the moment he turned out of the gate, he almost had a hunch that when he came back again, she would be gone again!
This thought made him extremely uneasy, even if they were really brother and sister, he didn't want her to leave, and with a U-turn, he drove through the door again.
Du Xiaoxian was still standing there motionless, and when he saw him coming back, he asked from afar, "Did you drop something?" ”
Gu Nianbin smiled and said, "I left you behind." ”
Du Xiaoxian was stunned, I don't know what he meant?
Gu Nianbin's chin raised: "Get in the car, you go with me." ”
"Shall I go with me?" Du Xiaoxian stood still, if it was true, she would no longer be able to escape from it, she had to face all the embarrassment, as well as the man who gave her life but abandoned her and her grandma!
"Yes, let's go together," Gu Nianbin looked at her and smiled, "You just said that no matter what happens, you will be with me." Heaven and hell, we advance and retreat together! ”
Du Xiaoxian looked at the man's dark eyes, no longer hesitated, bypassed the front of the car and sat in the car, fastening his seat belt.
All the way, the car went out of the city and got on the highway, Gu Nianbin played music, it is a classic English old song "Hotel California", the melody is very good, especially the guitar in the prelude is very good, but Gu Nianbin knows that the content of this song is not very good, and there is a sentence "This may be heaven or hell". He felt that he was like this, and that this could be heaven or hell, but no matter what, the truth of the matter had to be clarified.
More than two hours later, they arrived at the ancestral house, and Gu Niannian was naturally overjoyed when she saw her parents coming. stuck to Du Xiaoxian's side and refused to leave, pestering her to talk about things.
Fang Yaru is also strange, isn't it a weekend, how can the two of them come over together, don't they have to go to work?
Gu Nianbin coped with two sentences, saying that because Du Xiaoxian suddenly missed it, he came back to take a look temporarily, and asked where Gu Guangxian was?
Fang Yaru said that Xiao Bonian was basking in the sun in the back mountain, Gu Nianbin didn't say anything, just lifted his feet and left, Du Xiaoxian looked at his hurried back, and his face couldn't help but darken.
Fang Yaru looked at her carefully and said, "Xiaoxian, you guys are fine, right?" ”
"No," Du Xiaoxian hugged Gu Niannian in his arms: "I really miss it, so come back and take a look." ”
"It's good if you don't have it," Fang Yaru said, "It's time for the wedding to be held, don't make any mistakes." ”
Gu Nianbin turned around to the backyard, then left the courtyard door, walked up the steps, and saw Gu Guangxian and Xiao Bonian in the pavilion halfway up the mountain, it turned out that the two were playing chess.
When Xiao Bonian saw him, he hurriedly got up and said hello, "The young master is back." ”
Gu Nianbin bowed slightly, "Uncle Xiao, play chess with my father." ”
"I'm not good at chess, and my master doesn't like to play with me, young master, come on." Xiao Bonian is the most observant of words, and when he saw Gu Nianbin coming over in a hurry, he knew that he had something to look for Gu Guangxian, so he made an excuse and retreated.
Gu Guangxian shook his head with a smile: "This old Xiao, if you lose, you want to run." He picked out the chess pieces one by one, "Nian Bin, is this point here to find me something?" ”
Gu Nianbin sat down and also helped pick up the chess pieces, the glazed chess pieces were shining in the sun, a little dazzling. He picked up all the pieces into the chess box, rearranged the pieces, and then said, "Yes, there is something." ”
Gu Guangxian looked at him: "What's going on in the company?" ”
Gu Nianbin raised his head and looked at him, Gu Guangxian was only a little over fifty this year, because he had been sick, so he looked much older than his actual age, the corners of his eyes were full of wrinkles, his hair was gray, and his eyes were not very energetic, but if he looked closely, he could still see that he must have been a handsome man when he was young.
One is a rich young master who is full of luxury, and the other is a mountain girl in a remote mountain, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible for these two to intersect.
Gu Nianbin took a deep breath and got straight to the point: "Dad, besides Mom, have you ever loved other women?" ”
Gu Guangxian glanced at him strangely, "Why did you suddenly ask this." ”
"Isn't it?" Gu Nianbin asked stubbornly. "Tell me the truth."
Gu Guangxian was silent for a moment and nodded, "Your mother told you?" ”
"You don't care who told me," Gu Nianbin asked again, "You have an illegitimate child, don't you?" ”
Gu Guangxian was shocked, and almost rushed out: "How do you know?" ”
is almost close to the truth, Gu Nianbin's heart is like someone has inserted a needle, dense, and the needle is to the point. He thought his father would deny it, but he asked two questions in the affirmative. He hesitated, but what else did he want to ask? Will the answer really be like that? Are he and Du Xiaoxian really brother and sister?
"Nianbin, where did you hear that?" Gu Guangxian's face turned a little pale: "Who told you what?" ”
Gu Nianbin wanted to speak, but his throat was dry and astringent, so he took Gu Guangxian's water and drank it, the water was soaked in ginseng, so it was bitter in his mouth, and the whole mouth was filled with a bitter taste, but it was far less bitter than his heart.
He pulled out the note: "You wrote it, right?" ”
Gu Guangxian took it over, squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully, he was a little old, so he picked up the magnifying glass on the table and looked at the words on the paper slowly, it was just three words, but he looked at it for a long time, and finally he said, "It seems to be." ”
"Like?" Gu Nianbin frowned: "Don't you remember what you wrote?" ”
Gu Guangxian picked up the magnifying glass again and recognized, and said, "No, I didn't write it." ”
Gu Nianbin didn't catch his breath, choked at once, coughed a few times, but his voice was full of surprise: "Isn't it?" Dad, you can see clearly, really, isn't it? ”
Gu Guangxian then looked at it again, and finally said with certainty: "No, this is imitated by others." ”
Gu Nianbin was afraid that because of too much time, his father would forget some things, so he reminded him: "More than 20 years ago, didn't you write such a small note to give away?" ”
"No, absolutely not." Gu Guangxian said with certainty.
Gu Nianbin's tense nerves loosened suddenly, and he put down a big stone in his heart, feeling that even breathing was much smoother. He laughed, "It's good if you don't have it." Scared the hell out of me! ”
But Gu Guangxian was confused: "Nian Bin, what do you want to say?" What twenty years ago, and where did this note come from? ”
"Dad, have you ever been to Daliang Mountain?" Gu Nianbin smiled and walked a chess piece, "This note was left by a man to Xiaoxian's aunt." I thought it had something to do with you! ”
"Daliang Mountain!" Gu Guangxian's face changed again, "You said that Xiaoxian is from Daliang Mountain?" What's her grandma's name? Is it surnamed Yu? ”
Gu Nianbin saw that his father suddenly became excited, his heart sank, and the strings that had just been relaxed tightened again, could it be that his father really knew Xiaoxian's aunt? Is what he is looking for really a bad fate?
