The weather in Lincheng is excellent, with blue sky and white clouds, clear skies, and bright sunshine shining on the earth.

Flights departing from Y arrive at Lincheng Sunshine Airport at 3 p.m.

Yan Xi held Xia Junying in his left hand, and Ling Xingyu who was pushing the suitcase in his right hand, and when they got out of the airport, they hailed a taxi to Baisha County, and two hours later they arrived at Shaxi Town in Baisha County.

Shaxi Town is an ancient town that is being renovated into a tourist area, with white walls and tiles, small bridges and flowing water, and a strong atmosphere of Chinese ink painting.

Xia Junying took the two of them to stand in front of a famous hotel, and after a phone call, the wooden door of the famous house gradually opened, and a plainly dressed woman walked out.

Xia Junying stepped forward with a smile and shook the woman's hand, "Aunt Jiao, Happy New Year, I'll take a look at Xibao." ”

"Jun Ying come in and sit, come in and sit." The woman had a gentle and kind smile on her face.

The red and purple triangles in the courtyard are blooming, and the quaint houses are carved and painted, like the landlord's residence in the TV series.

Ling Xingyu placed a carton of milk and two boxes of supplements on the table.

From the conversation between Xia Junying and the woman's aunt, Yan Xi heard a rough idea that Aunt Jiao was Xia Junying's previous mother-in-law and Wang Xibao's grandmother.

She told Xia Junying that last year the ancient town began to be renovated to develop into a tourist area, and the family was also ready to open an inn, so she began to decorate the room, but she didn't think that the old man Wang fell off the ladder when he was repairing the roof tiles, fell unconscious, and was sent to the hospital to be diagnosed with a stroke.

Aunt Jiao left them for dinner, Xia Junying shook her head, and after inquiring about Wang Yishen's number and address, she was going to leave with them, and before leaving, Xia Junying stuffed 2,000 yuan to Aunt Jiao.

In the restaurant in the ancient town, Xia Junying ordered several local specialties to entertain them.

Yan Xi became interested in a fried crispy fish scale, she never knew that fish scales could be eaten!

After dinner, they got into a taxi and headed to the county seat, Hyatt Riverside, next to the sports facilities in the park.

Xia Junying looked at a series of numbers on her phone, she hadn't seen that man for ten years, she didn't know what it would be like to meet again, would that man be calm or tense?

Pressing the dial and listening to the beep, Xia Junying swallowed her throat.

Yan Xi held Xia Junying's cold hand that was so nervous that she had nowhere to put it, and gave her spiritual support.

"Hey, hello, who's that?"

The phone was connected, and a man's polite voice came from the mobile phone, which was very different from the gangster Wang Yishen in Xia Junying's memory.

In the past, no matter who Wang Yishen answered, as soon as he picked it up, he would say, 'What are you doing?' If you have something to say, let it go quickly, the master is busy! ’

Thinking that Aunt Jiao had already explained to him over the phone, the man asked in a deep voice, "Is it Xia Junying?" ”

"Well, it's me." Xia Junying retracted her thoughts, "I'm downstairs in your community, I want to meet Xibao." ”

"Xibao is asleep, you can come back tomorrow!"

The sound of a child crying could be faintly heard on the phone.

"So early?"

"Yes, you can come back tomorrow!" Wang Yishen hung up the phone in a hurry.

Xia Junying's eyelids jumped twice, and she was panicked, always feeling that the crying sound just now was made by Wang Xibao.

The sound of flower pots clashing against each other came out, and everyone followed the sound to see a girl on the fifth balcony of Building 3, who was standing by the glass fence and looking at them fixedly.

"Xibao~~" It was dark and I couldn't see the child's face clearly, but my intuition told Xia Junying that it was Wang Xibao.

Before Xia Junying could get close to Building No. 5, a man appeared on the balcony and brought the child into the house, and then there was a faint muffled sound of glass breaking.

Xia Junying dialed Wang Yishen's mobile phone number again.

No one answered.

Xia Junying looked at the balcony and sighed: "I have a bad premonition. ”

"It's okay, Sister Ying." Yan Xi gently patted her hand and comforted, "Let's come back tomorrow!" He won't let us see Xibao! ”

Xia Junying shook her head, "Wait, wait......"

Yan Xi nodded and looked at Building No. 3, where Sister Ying's closest relatives lived.

Suddenly, a man ran out of Building 3 with a child in his arms, and the man's figure was the same as the man on the balcony before.

"Sister Ying......" Yan Xi called out to Xia Junying, who was staring at the balcony intently.

The man ran outside the community, "It's Wang Yishen." Xia Junying chased after her, and Yan Xi and Ling Xingyu also chased after her.

Wang Yishen got into a private car parked on the side of the road with the child in his arms, Xia Junying stopped a taxi and followed, and the car stopped at the county hospital a few minutes later.

Wang Yishen...... Wang Yishen ......"

Wang Yishen ignored Xia Junying's shouting behind him, and ran straight into the emergency area of the hospital with the child in his arms.

In the surgical emergency room, Xia Junying finally saw clearly the child in his arms, it was Wang Xibao, and Wang Xibao's face and hands were covered with blood.

Wang Xibao looked at Xia Junying, and her two tears slipped down and washed the blood stains on her face.

"Xibao ......" Xia Junying breathed sluggishly, and yelled at Wang Yishen: "What's the matter?" What's going on? ”

"Quiet," the doctor reminded with an expressionless face, "This is the hospital, if there is anything to do when you go home, make noise, put the child on the hospital bed, and hold down the limbs." ”

Wang Yishen put Wang Xibao on the hospital bed, Xia Junying pressed her shoulders and arms with red eyes, and Yan Xi and Ling Xingyu also stepped forward to help hold down the child's calves.

The doctor cleaned the wound on Wang Xibao's forehead, and a hideous wound was deep into the bone.

Xia Junying's tears rolled down, glaring at Wang Yishen, full of resentment.

"Stare at what." Wang Yishen snorted coldly, "You are not qualified to stare at me." ”

Not eligible? Xia Junying looked at Xibao's immature little face, there was forbearance in her eyes that did not match her age, this little face was similar to her when she was a child, and the encounter was also similar, I thought that she was living well with her grandparents, but I didn't think that she was living the same life as when she was a child.

If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.

Xia Junying had an idea.

After the suturing and bandaging, Wang Yishen went to pay the fee, and Xia Junying cautiously asked Wang Xibao who was lying on the hospital bed, "Xibao, can I hug you?" ”

Wang Xibao nodded, Xia Junying picked her up and sat on the chair, "Xibao, do you know who I am?" ”

In the past ten years, after seeing each other in a hurry several times, Xia Junying was not sure that Xibao would be able to remember her.

Wang Xibao nodded in her arms, and Xia Junying was overjoyed and burst into tears.

'Can you call me Mom?' When the words came to her mouth, she swallowed it again, Wang Yishen was right, she was not qualified.

"Can you tell me what's going on?"

Wang Xibao glanced up at her, retracted into her arms, and shook his head.

"Are they good to you?"

Wang Xibao was silent for a while and nodded.

Xia Junying was sad, don't do to others what you don't want, why did she choose to be a shrinking turtle for fear of not being able to fight for the custody of her children over the years.

"Xibao," Xia Junying hugged her tightly, leaned close to her ear and asked, "Would you like to live with your mother?" ”

Wang Xibao bowed his head and was silent.

"Xibao, go home." Wang Yishen stood in the hospital corridor and shouted at the emergency room.

Wang Xibao left Xia Junying's arms.

"Wang Yishen." Out of the hospital, Xia Junying stopped him, "Let's talk?" ”

Xia Junying's face does not have the traces left by too many years, but Wang Yishen is different, he looks like he is in his forties at the beginning of his thirties, and he may not have had a good time these years.

When Xia Junying sent the child back, Wang Yishen thought that there was a chance to reunite with the broken mirror, and he looked for her everywhere, and went to Xia Junying's mother's house several times to no avail.

Time is not medicine, but it has the ability to make people forget, and over time, Wang Yishen has forgotten that there is also Xia Junying.

Those gangsters who don't do their jobs properly are interested in roadblocks and robberies. Rape two girls, and was imprisoned, fortunately Aunt Jiao went to visit relatives that day, Wang Yishen was forced to stay at home with the children and escaped.

The growth of age made him see how ridiculous he was once himself, he began to change his mind and work hard, run his own business, from the beginning of the commissary gradually to a small supermarket, and then introduced, he began to reorganize the family, time smoothed out all his water chestnuts, he learned to cherish the people in front of him, and pampered his newlywed wife, resulting in his wife being pampered and arrogant, holding the power of the family, and after giving birth to a son, it became even worse, and he endured it again and again with the belief of a happy family.

Wang Yishen stopped and turned to look at her, "What do we have to talk about?" ”

"Let's talk about Xibao!"

"There's nothing to talk about, it's up to the kids, and we'll see it tomorrow." After finishing speaking, Wang Yishen took Wang Xibao and left.

Inside the hotel in the county seat.

Xia Junying opened the suitcase, and in addition to clothes, there were also Barbie dolls she bought for Wang Xibao, a story reader and a student tablet.

'I'm sorry Xibao, but Mom always thought that you could enjoy happiness with them, and it was better than following Mom to endure hardships. Xia Junying's heart was sour, why did she choose to escape and stay away instead of staying in the Wang family for the sake of Xibao.

If you are born and not raised, why should you be born.

Today, Wang Xibao is still her closest relatives, but to Wang Xibao, she is just a stranger with a blood relationship.

"Sister Ying~~" Yan Xi knocked on the door.

Xia Junying wiped away the tears on her face, covered her suitcase and calmed down and went to open the door.

"Sister Ying, do you need special services?" Yan Xi shook the goblet and red wine in her hand, and Ling Xingyu behind her was holding two bags of takeaways.

"Come on in!" For Yan Xi, a kind-hearted and caring little sister, Xia Junying is very grateful.

Yan Xi and Ling Xingyu walked in one after the other, putting the takeaway on the coffee table, Ling Xingyu was responsible for opening the wine, and Yan Xi was responsible for opening the food.

"Sister Ying, come here, it's all your favorite food." Yan Xi opened the lid and said, "Salt and pepper pig's trotters, boiled okra, fried shrimp with broccoli and a big box of skewers." ”

"Here we are." A smile bloomed at the corner of Xia Junying's mouth.

Xia Junying knew that Yan Xi was afraid that she would grieve alone, so she came over to accompany her.
