186 Stuffy Gourd White Night (2)

"Is it true that the child said that his father would marry you?"
"......" This time, Xia Xingchen was silent. Just when she didn't know how to answer, the mobile phone in her pocket rang at this moment. She pulled out her phone and froze when she saw the number flashing on the screen.
Shen Min saw through her expression and asked, "The child is his father?" ”
“…… Well. ”
"Then what are you doing in a daze, let's go outside and pick it up."
"Oh." Xia Xingchen took the mobile phone and went out with a heavy heart. walked to the bedroom where he lived before to take a look, and found that Xia Dabai was still asleep, but the mobile phone in his hand kept ringing.
Eventually, she picked it up and put it to her ear.
The two of them didn't seem to know what to say, and the moment the phone was answered, they were very silent.
Xia Xingchen stood in the courtyard blowing a cool breeze, and in her ears, the sound of men's breathing made her feel suffocated in her chest.
"Why, you're going to just keep talking?" The first to speak was Bai Yeqing, who opened his mouth and spoke in a bad tone. Appear impatient.
Xia Xingchen's tone was also not good, "Xia Dabai is still sleeping, you hang up first, and call later." ”
Her tone, lukewarm, annoyed him. Moreover, what does it mean to hang first?! Was she ordering him? Moreover, he took the initiative to call her, and she dared to let him hang up?
He was patient, "You called me last night, and I just remembered, so I called to ask if something was wrong?" ”
The implication is that if she doesn't call him, he can't remember her at all, and he won't take the initiative to call her.
"You misunderstood, I didn't call." Compared to his annoyance, Xia Xingchen was quite calm, and his voice was cool, "It's Dabai, it has nothing to do with me." Later, when he wakes up, I'll tell him that you've called. ”
On the "......" side, Bai Yeqing didn't answer, but his breathing was obviously much heavier than just now.
So, last night's phone call ...... Is he self-inflicted?
"Are you okay? If it's okay, I'll hang up first. My side is very ......."
Before Xia Xingchen could say the word 'busy', over there, the phone was hung up directly with a 'snap'. The sound of the man's breathing disappeared into her ears, leaving only a single 'beep' sound in the mobile phone......
She was stunned for a moment, silently put the phone back in her pocket, and sighed.
His temper is really bad sometimes. I really don't know if I can bear it with Song's only temper if I marry Song only in the future.
When I think of this, I feel really funny. She is an outsider, and she still cares about these? Whether she can bear it or not, it's all a matter between their husband and wife, why do she need to this hollow?
took a long breath, but the depression in my heart still did not dissipate. She looked up at the morning sun and welcomed a new start to the day. What I was thinking in my mind was: the only day he and Song got married, and it was closer......
……………………
The day after that, Xia Xingchen didn't talk to Bai Yeqing on the phone again. At night, the child would call him with her mobile phone, and Xia Dabai would sit on the tatami mat while picking his feet while telling him about the environment and the amiable grandmother.
Sometimes, Xia Dabai would drag her to talk on the phone. Xia Xingchen was not happy, but when he raised his little hand and directly put the phone to her ear, she had no other way. However, at this time, before she could speak, Bai Yeqing had already hung up the phone directly.
Decisive and ruthless.
Tonight......
But it's a little different.
Xia Dabai was talking to Bai Yeqing on the phone in the room, and Xia Xingchen stood in the courtyard with a cloak, looking up at the moon. The air in the town is very good, even the moon is brighter and rounder than the city.
It's just that......
On such a night, it seems particularly bleak and cold.
Tomorrow...... It's his wedding......
Xia Xingchen wrapped the cloak on his body and looked back at the child who was still on the phone. Probably because he hasn't been with his Xiaobai for the past two days, the child seems to miss and cherish him more. The more this is the case, the more Xia Xingchen feels more and more unspeakable.
How can I tell my child that his Xiaobai is going to marry someone else tomorrow?
"Why are you still standing here and not sleeping?" Shen Min came out of the room, afraid that she would freeze, so he took a coat and draped it over her shoulders.
"I'll go to bed right away and wait for the kid to finish the call." Xia Xingchen suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Mom, I forgot to give you a gift." ”
"What kind of gift?"
"Go back to your room and wait, it's cold outside. I'll go get it and go over. ”
After Xia Xingchen finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the house, and took out the brocade box that she had carefully put away from his bag. Xia Dabai was still on the phone, glanced up at her, and rolled his small body into the quilt. Xia Xingchen smiled at him, pointed to the opposite room, signaled and went out.
Shen Min was sitting on the sofa next to the bed reading a book at this moment. She has been doing botanical research all these years, but she has recently retired. Living in such a small town, the pension plus her savings over the years is quite good.
"Mom."
"Come and sit." Shen Min put down the book, took off his glasses, and patted the position on his side. Xia Xingchen took the small brocade box over, sat down, and handed her the things.
"...... this?"
"The kid's dad said, it's a gift for you. He listened to me, you are about to turn 50. ”
"It seems that he is still a man with a heart." Shen Min sighed, did not refuse, and took a while to open the brocade box. opened, stunned for a moment, and looked at Xia Xingchen.
Looking at the hosta lying in the brocade box, Xia Xingchen was also stunned.
"This look is not a simple jade ......," Shen Min said.
Xia Xingchen came back to his senses and nodded. Isn't it simple? It's priceless at all!
She knew the hosta and had seen it in the brochure of the last charity auction. Later, she heard that this hosta flower fell into the hands of Minister Bai, but she didn't expect it...... He actually gave it to his mother......
"You told him that I like hairpins?" Shen Min asked.
Xia Xingchen shook his head, "No." I never mentioned it to him. But...... He had seen a picture of you when you were younger, and you had a hairpin on your head, probably ...... He wrote it down there. ”
She looked at the hosta, and there was a complicated and indescribable feeling surging in her heart......
Shen Min smiled, "It seems that this kid is not an ordinary heart. He was able to give me such a valuable gift, and he also kept such a small thing in mind for you, and I can see that he is very attentive to you. If he can really marry you back, I'm relieved of my mother's heart. ”
Xia Xingchen's heart was pantothenic, full of indescribable bitterness. She opened her lips to say something, but her chest tightened terribly. Looking at the hosta, in the end, he just muttered: "He is really a person with a very heart......"
