Before New Year's Day, Bai Lian received a message from Meng Xin, saying that he was going to participate in school activities and couldn't go home.

The father and daughter were looking forward to the New Year, but when they waited for the New Year, they still didn't wait for Meng Xin, but turned around, asked someone to send his salary, and gave Bai Lian a stack of poems that are said to be the most popular poetry books nowadays.

"Girl, do you think Meng Xin doesn't want to come back?" Old man Meng said bitterly, their house is surrounded by four walls, where can they compare to the world of flowers outside.

"No, Abba, Meng Xin is not that kind of person." Bai Lian shook her head, she didn't believe it.

Meng Xin never went home, and if it weren't for the regular arrival of letters and money, everyone would think that he must have forgotten this small mountain village.

Old man Meng's health deteriorated, and he spent most of his time lying on the bed muttering to himself, and when he got closer, he realized that he had been shouting Meng Xin's name.

Bai Lian had no choice but to write a letter to Meng Xin, informing him that Abba was seriously ill and hoped that he would take the time to come back.

Her heart is heavy, Old Man Meng's body is deteriorating too quickly, and the provincial capital is far away, I don't know if I can wait until Meng Xin comes back, even if it is delivered, is he willing to come back?

It's been about two days.

The doctor gave them a deadline.

"Girl, after I leave, you live a good life, if Meng Xin doesn't come back, don't wait for him, find a good person to love you again, my daughter is so good, so good..."

In the bleak night, only the flickering oil lamp is accompanied by kindness.

"Knock knock...", there was a sharp knock on the door.

"Here," Bai Lian hurriedly ran to open the door, "Who..." The hand holding the wooden bolt suddenly froze, "Meng Xin, are you back?" ”

"I'm back," Meng Xin's voice was hoarse, "How's Abba?" ”

"It's good if you're back, it's good when you're back..."Bai Lian cried with joy and led him to see Old Man Meng.

Old man Meng saw his son-in-law on his deathbed, and in the early morning of the same day, he left with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

is different from the ignorance before he went out, after coming back, Meng Xinneng did a lot of things, and handled the affairs of Old Man Meng in an orderly manner, and even the elders in the village praised him for being able to do things.

When everything was taken care of, the couple had time to sit down and talk.

"Bai Lian, if you want, come with me into the provincial capital this time." Meng Xin hesitated to speak, there was an old man Meng before, she would definitely not go with him, now that the only concern is gone, she should be willing.

"I do." Bai Lian nodded quickly, his thin shoulders trembled slightly, there was no blood relative, Meng Xin was her new support, he took the initiative to let her rely on, how could she not want to.

"I... One more thing to tell you. Meng Xin took a sip to moisten his dry lips, "My family has found me." ”

"Really?" Bai Lian was happy for him, "Congratulations." ”

However, Meng Xin didn't seem to be happy?

"I'm just partially remembered," he said.

"If you can think about it, it means that you are slowly getting better, so you should be patient." Bai Lian comforted him.

You haven't officially read a book, but you've always been so open-minded and optimistic.

Meng Xin appreciated, and at the same time, he hated what he was going to say next, "Back to the provincial capital, you can only be my sister, and we will no longer be... Husband and wife... up..."

"Why?" Bai Lian almost gritted her teeth before she spit out three words, she thought that she had come to the end of her hardship.

"I'm already married." Even if you can have three wives and four concubines in this era, I can't wronged you to be a child, Meng Xin thought bitterly, and said that they hated to see each other late, they were too late for too long.

"Married..."Bai Lian's face turned pale, "Why didn't you tell me earlier." ”

Perhaps, I once felt that I could have another home with you, but I thought in my selfish heart, but reason did not allow it, so I procrastinated and delayed you all these years.

He didn't explain.

"I'm sorry." When I got to my mouth, I only said sorry.

***

Bai Lian locked himself in the room for a night, and figured it out, life will go on after all, although Meng Xin is not kind to her, but he has never lied to her and coaxed her, probably because of her wishful thinking.

"Brother," she said, opening the door, and the first thing she said said, "from now on, you will be my brother." ”

In the early morning sun, her face was so gentle, and the warm light was just like her character, energetic.

No wonder Meng Xin came so quickly, it turned out that he came by car, a classic car that Bai Lian was familiar with.

It's really a rich kid......

I thought that thousands of mountains and rivers were separated by thousands of mountains, but it took only a few hours to get there.

Meng Xin briefly introduced her current identity on the way.

Meng Xin's real name is Zhao Rongxin, the Zhao family is a scholarly family in the provincial capital, and the main industry is pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., of course, there are also some grain textiles.

Meng Xin, she is still not used to changing her words, and she didn't talk to her about Mrs. Zhao, who only said a few words.

It was an elegant and beautiful young lady, and three lovely children.

Bai Lian almost stumbled, she thought that she could accept the marriage that Meng Xin said, but there were still so many unknowables waiting to hit her.

She just threw herself into the plot for the "Bai Lian" who was so uncomfortable, so the real "Bai Lian" is here, is it painful.

"This is the sister I told you on the phone, she will go to the school to study after a few days of rest at home, you can arrange it." Meng Xin and Mrs. Zhao spoke in a calm tone, and they didn't see their relatives, did they show her?

Bai Lian couldn't help but think, no, she can't be a woman surrounded by jealousy like that, she should be looking forward to her new life, she will enter the school, she will meet a lot of like-minded friends, she can have her own achievements.

Mrs. Zhao was polite and polite to her, and naturally she would not be overly enthusiastic, unless Meng Xin went home to eat together, and the rest was for her subordinates to take care of.

"I've found a school, it's in the colleague school where I teach, it's more convenient for you to come here for the first time." Meng Xin personally came to tell her the news.

"Are you still in the academy?" I thought you were back in the family business.

"Well, I love this job, it's simple, and there's a sense of accomplishment in being able to spread knowledge to people who want it." Meng Xin smiled, "When I just came back from abroad, I couldn't think about what to do, I wasn't interested in business, and I didn't want to be idle at home, so I went to play in the mountains and rivers, but as a result, I ran into trouble and almost drowned in the river." ”

He spoke lightly, Bai Lian listened to the horror, the trouble he encountered was caused by the melee of various warlords, and a ship full of ordinary people was bombarded by cannonballs, which shows that the world is uneasy.
