"I'll have to think about it."

This is the answer given by Park Xiang.

"Okay! Spinning"

Jin Changning left a number and asked her to think clearly about the number to him.

On the way home, Pu Xiang looked at the familiar number blankly, with a gloomy expression.

In fact, she wanted to get the job.

However, she was afraid that that environment would make her feel attached and that she would not be able to leave ruthlessly.

But how could she drag him down?

In the past, although she came from a bad background and was an orphan, she at least had a beautiful face, a healthy body, and a painting skill that she could be proud of, as well as those ingenious ideas in her head.

All of this can give her self-confidence and make her live every day with energy.

But what about her now?

Her face is broken, her body is broken, she can barely paint, but one day, she will be blind, and she will have nothing.

The point is that she also has such a bad background.

Think about it, she is Xiao Zhiyue's daughter, how can cousins get married? How can you have children? How do you want to live a lifetime?

To this end, she also looked up a lot of information.

The Bible's book of Genesis, however, records a number of consanguineous marriages.

For example, Abram and Sarah were half-siblings, Isaac and Rebekah were cousins, Esau was cousins to Mahalah, and Jacob was cousins to Leah and Rachel.

She has also checked the marital status of some celebrities.

Charles Darwin, for example, married his cousin Emma Wedgwood and had ten children, three of whom died young, but among his surviving sons were a famous astronomer, a botanist, a civil engineer, a banker, an education extension specialist, and a politician and biologist. Both of his daughters are writers.

For example, Einstein's second wife, Elsa, is his cousin, and she is a second-generation cousin.

For example, Franklin D. Roosevelt, the only president in the history of the United States, and his wife Eleanor are cousins. They had a total of six children, each of whom was very successful.

Another example: Zhuang Mingyue, the wife of Li Ka-shing, the richest man in Hong Kong, is the daughter of Li Ka-shing's mother's brother. The crystallization of this marriage is "Little Superman" Li Zekai. And families like the Li family are not uncommon in Hong Kong. (Note: The above reference materials are all from the Internet.) ）

These historical cases, both Chinese and foreign, prove that the marriage of cousins does not necessarily cause mental retardation or other defects in the offspring.

The problem is in contemporary China. China's Marriage Law clearly prohibits intermarriage within three generations.

Moreover, in China, there has been such a marriage tradition since ancient times: cousins can be married, but cousins and sisters with the same surname are not allowed to intermarry.

Jin Hengyuan is also a celebrity, if someone who is a good person digs up such a secret matter, what a big storm it will be.

Whether it is for the Xiao family or the Jin family, it will definitely cause such a situation as reputational damage.

She thought about it carefully: Xiao Jin and the two families really don't need to face such a stigma for a person who has one foot in the coffin.

She didn't want to drag them down, she just wanted the rest of her life to spend quietly, just hoping that she could see him more before closing her eyes.

Because, she is a person with no future.

What else is there to be greedy for?

But if she could really let it go, she wouldn't come back here, and she wouldn't think about going to his house again, hoping that he would smile at herself.

But at the same time, I thought about it, but I was afraid.

Afraid that he would be impulsive, afraid that he would find out, afraid of ruining his peaceful present and bright future prospects......

That kind of contradiction was entangled in her heart, so that she couldn't make up her mind.

She hated herself for being so indecisive, but she just couldn't overcome herself and become decisive.

Alas!

She could only sigh.

*

Greater Shanghai is a bustling metropolis, full of lights and opportunities.

How many young, ambitious and aspiring young people have joined here one after another, wanting to seek a bright future for their future.

But its high consumption has also made many people love and hate.

I love its prosperity, but I hate the pressure it brings.

Park Xiang calculated the money in his account, and the pitiful three-digit amount was not enough to pay next month's rent.

She needs to earn money, and even if the design draft in her hand is given out, she won't get the money for a while.

The part-time job was good, but it was ...... She has countless concerns, and for a while, it is difficult for her to make a decision.

On Sunday, she went to the street park again, set up a stall, and sketched people.

Twenty dollars a piece, enough to be cheap.

Generally speaking, when selling paintings on the street, one painting is between thirty and fifty.

She is a first-time business, aiming at small profits and quick turnover,

Because it's cheap, and because she paints well, business is pretty good.

"Auntie, can you draw one for me?"

A tender voice crept in.

Pu Xiang raised his head, and a beautiful little girl stood in front of her, with long hair, quiet and a sweet smile.

Her hand grasping the pen tightened; The throat is tightened; In his heart, he was even tighter, staring straight at it, and couldn't answer for a while.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with me? ”

The little girl looked down at herself suspiciously.

"Okay."

Pu Xiang nodded hurriedly:

"You put on a simple pose!"

"Hmm!"

The little girl sat cross-legged on the blanket in front of her, took the book, and read it quietly.

This gesture is not contrived at all, it is very natural.

Pu Xiang looked at it, smiled slightly, and drew it openly.

drew a beautiful girl like an elf, reading seriously, everyone is full of style.

"That's it! It's time to get up. ”

Park Xiang walked over with the painting and asked her to look at it.

The little girl was very satisfied, and smiled brightly:

"Trouble auntie to draw my name, I want to take it back and frame it......"

"Your name is ......"

"Xiao Xiaoran!"

Pu Xiang painted this name as a jar of blooming flowers, which is very artistic.

When Xiao Xiaoran got it in her hand, she whispered with a smile: "It's so beautiful, thank you, Auntie." ”

She gave money, a hundred dollars.

Park Xiang retrieved her eighty yuan.

Xiao Xiaoran was stunned: "It's only twenty yuan, Auntie, is your fee too low?" ”

Pu Xiang smiled, a faint affection seeped into her eyes, and rubbed her little head: "Go ahead...... Find your family! ”

Xiao Xiaoran was stunned again and said, "Auntie, the paintings you painted are too few for a hundred." You can raise the price. I know how to draw, you really draw well......"

The little girl has been wronged for her!

It's really hard to find a soulmate!

"Thank you, Xiao Xiao, for your appreciation."

"Goodbye, Auntie!"

Xiao Xiaoran rushed over somewhere.

Not far away, her father Jin Hengyuan was sitting on the edge of a clear pond, looking at a book in his hand, and the little girl went up and hooked her father's neck and let him read it as if offering a treasure. The two men were talking excitedly.

The relationship between father and daughter is really good.

At this moment, she suddenly envied Xiao Xiaoran, she could snuggle in his arms, she could be pampered by him, and she could talk to him......

Well, what was she thinking?

She scratched her scalp.

"Excuse me, do you still paint?"

A little boy asked there.

"The ...... of the painting"

Pu Xiang turned his head and hurriedly answered.

She continued to paint, one painting after another...... From time to time, I would take a look over there, and suddenly I felt that I had a very interesting day.

Because she was in the same place as him, because she was finally so close to him.

Towards evening, Pu Xiang painted a dozen paintings in total, earning three or four hundred yuan

。 Some people gave a little more of a tip.

Among them, she barely stopped, she was very tired from drawing, and her hands were sore.

She hadn't painted like this in a long time, and she was a little out of breath, but she was in a good mood.

"Auntie, have you called it a day?"

Looking at the sky in a daze, Xiao Xiaoran appeared in front of her again, with a sweet smile on her face.

That smile made her feel very comfortable looking at it.

"Hmm!"

"My dad wants to say a few words to you, can you come over with me?"

Xiao Xiaoran pointed to the man in the distance who had been reading a book.

Pu Xiang's heart skipped a beat, but he still nodded:

"Good ......"

The sunset, golden, spread on the man's grim face, shining brightly.

Park Xiang really wanted to stop and quietly draw this beautiful scene.

But no.

There was also Xiao Xiaoran looking at the side, it was impossible for her to set up an easel in front of this child and secretly draw people's ......

Alas!

It's a shame.

However, she was excited to finally be able to talk to him again.

At this moment, she felt that her face was inexplicably hot:

Oh, it's almost a person who starts with three words, how can there be such a ridiculous psychological change of falling in love for the first time and having a red face and hot ears? --- digression--- see you tomorrow.
