Chapter 13: Parting
On the day Xie Xuan left, it was raining in the sky.
Like Lin Qingyue's tears, she was also sad about his parting.
Lin Baosheng was the last person to know the news.
Originally, Lin Qingyue listened to Lin Zhenzhen's words and wanted to hide it from him, but the maid who served him accidentally leaked her mouth. When he found out, he cried and smashed everything in the house, shouting that he wanted to go with his father.
Since he was a child, he had the best relationship with his father, and he couldn't accept his father's departure.
The maids had no way to take him at all, Lin Qingyue and Lin Yunchang were both outside the gate to see Xie Xuan, they could only go to the Zangjiao Pavilion to find Lin Zhenzhen, after all, their brother and sister relationship has always been good, I hope Lin Zhenzhen can help persuade him a few words.
When Lin Zhenzhen arrived at the Treasure Pavilion, Lin Baosheng was throwing a vase outside the door.
The Ru kiln vase containing colchicum fell to the ground suddenly, only to hear a "bang", the vase shattered to the ground, and the broken porcelain pieces splashed everywhere, and a few pieces flew right onto Lin Zhenzhen's skirt.
"Little Miss, are you alright?" Seeing this, the maids were frightened and stepped forward to check on Lin Zhenzhen's situation.
Lin Zhenzhen waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, then looked down at the broken porcelain piece that fell in front of him, and asked the maid, "Brother has such a big temper, don't you stop it?" ”
The maids hurriedly said: "The little young master knew that his uncle was going to the capital, his eyes were red with anger, and he shouted that he wanted to go with his uncle." The slaves and maids desperately stopped and didn't let it, so the little master had to smash things in the house to protest, Qiu Yue's face was swollen by the tea cup, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to stop anymore when they saw this, so they could only retreat. ”
As they spoke, they hurriedly pushed Qiu Yue in front of Lin Zhenzhen, for fear that Lin Zhenzhen would sue them for being disadvantageous like an elder.
Lin Zhenzhen looked at Qiu Yue's swollen cheeks and sighed softly.
This brother of hers is really worry-free!
"I'll go in and persuade my brother." As she spoke, she kicked away the broken porcelain in front of her and walked into the room.
"Get out, you all get out!" Lin Baosheng heard the movement of someone entering the house, picked up a piece of jade pillow in his hand and wanted to smash it out of the door, but when he saw that the person who walked in outside the door was Lin Zhenzhen, he immediately paused, and his face still had time to restrain the sadness and anger.
"Why did my brother lose his temper so much?" Lin Zhenzhen looked at the mess in the room, and knew that Lin Baosheng was really sad and angry to the extreme.
It's not that she doesn't feel guilty in her heart, but she knows very well that the capital is the tiger's den in Longtan, and it is the same for her, Lin Qingyue, and Lin Baosheng.
"Gillian! You didn't lie to me that day, did you? You already knew Daddy was leaving, didn't you? Lin Baosheng said, tears falling "crackling".
Lin Zhenzhen stepped forward in a mess, she took out the ginger butterfly embroidered handkerchief in her sleeve, stood on tiptoe to wipe Lin Baosheng's tears, and then said: "My brother is so old and crying, it's really useless." ”
Lin Baosheng choked in his throat, and he couldn't cry anymore.
"What if Daddy is gone? He'll be back! Lin Zhenzhen withdrew his hand and said casually.
Lin Baosheng's eyes lit up, he sniffled and asked, "Really?" ”
"Hmm." Lin Zhenzhen nodded affirmatively, and analyzed with him: "If you want to talk about who is most reluctant to father, it must be my mother's parents, I heard Qiu Xiang say that my mother thought that my father was leaving, and she almost hit the wall sadly, but you see your mother now, her expression is as usual, and she didn't cry when she sent her father away today, what does my brother think is the reason?" ”
Lin Baosheng is a very smart child, and he immediately answered: "It must be because Daddy is only leaving temporarily, and he will come back!" ”
"Brother is so smart." Lin Zhenzhen gave him a thumbs up, "So, brother, what are you sad about?" It's not like Daddy won't come back for the rest of his life, he will come back. Instead of being sad and sad, let Daddy follow him, it is better to study hard and wait for Daddy to come back one day, so that he can be impressed! ”
After Lin Baosheng heard her say these words, he immediately felt less sad.
That's right! Daddy will come back, just like he used to go out to do business, and every time he comes back, he will bring him gifts, so what is there for him to be sad?
"If my brother is not sad, why don't I go out to see off my father, otherwise my father will not see us, and I am afraid that he will be sad!" Lin Zhenzhen proposed again.
She originally didn't want Lin Baosheng to know that Xie Xuan was leaving, but now that he already knew, it was better to go out and send Xie Xuan off, and it would be more sober to face it in person than hearsay.
Because of course Xie Xuan will come back, but who knows how many years it will take?
Maybe it's three years and five years, or maybe it's ten years or eight years, or maybe like Xie Chen, let Lin Baosheng wait for half his life.
Therefore, she had to let Lin Baosheng say goodbye to Xie Xuan in person, she didn't want Lin Baosheng to have the same obsession as Xie Xuan in the future.
When Lin Baosheng and Lin Zhenzhen walked outside the gate, Xie Xuan was just about to get into the carriage and leave.
"Daddy!" Lin Baosheng hurriedly let go of Lin Zhenzhen's hand and ran towards Xie Xuan.
"Bao Sheng?" Xie Xuan was very surprised when he saw him, because he knew that he was leaving, and Lin Qingyue had been hiding it from Lin Baosheng.
Lin Qingyue was also taken aback, she hurriedly lowered her head to look at Lin Zhenzhen, and listened to Lin Zhenzhen: "I brought my brother here, I think my brother hopes to send my father away in person." ”
Looking at her daughter's indifferent face, Lin Qingyue felt incredible.
She always felt that there was something different about Gillian.
"Daddy, are you going to the capital? Will you ever come back? Here, Lin Baosheng hugged Xie Xuan's thigh tightly and raised his head to look at him pitifully.
Seeing that Lin Baosheng was not as sad and sad as he imagined, Xie Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, then bent down to pick him up, nodded and said, "Yes, Daddy will come back again, Baosheng must be obedient at home, and he can't cause trouble to his mother and grandfather." ”
"Bao Sheng knows that Bao Sheng will study hard and wait for his father to come back and recite the "Three Character Classic" to his father!" Lin Baosheng nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and his eyes turned red.
Xie Xuan's heart ached, and when he thought that he would not see a pair of children for three years, he felt that he was a father in vain.
He couldn't help but secretly swear in his heart that when he arrived in the capital, he would redouble his efforts and strive to come back as soon as possible to pick up his wife and children to live a good life.
Xie Xuan finally put down Lin Baosheng in pain, and then got into the carriage and waved goodbye to everyone.
Lin Qingyue held back her tears and stepped forward to pick up Lin Baosheng, and whispered to Xie Xuan who was sitting in the carriage: "I will wait for you, don't forget to go home!" ”
Xie Xuan's eyes were hot, and he almost burst into tears, he didn't answer Lin Qingyue's words, he just nodded vigorously, and then dropped the car curtain, choked up and said to the coachman: "Let's go!" ”
The carriage started slowly.
After a while, they drifted away, and then disappeared into the alley.
"Daddy!" Lin Baosheng suddenly realized that his father had really left, not that no one was joking with him, and it was not as simple as he imagined.
Daddy is really gone, he won't see his father for a long time in the future, no one will teach him to read anymore, and no one will take him to eat delicious food anymore.
"Daddy! I don't want Daddy to go! Lin Baosheng cried loudly, desperately struggling to jump from Lin Qingyue's arms.
Lin Qingyue hugged him and didn't let him move, but she couldn't help crying bitterly: "Baosheng, he will come back, Daddy will come back, let's wait together, let's wait for him to come back." ”
Lin Zhenzhen looked at the empty intersection in front of him and sighed softly.
I hope it will never change.
