223 Lost gained
Shen Mo stood on the cusp of the storm, but he didn't even reveal a photo of being interviewed, others thought he was scared and hid himself. In fact, I know that Shen Mo still has strength at this time, their Shen family has been operating in the imperial capital for so many years, not counting the connections left by his father, just Shen Mo's own connections over the years are enough for him to escape everything.
Still, I'm worried, worried about him.
When I went to pick up my children from school with Hua Yuanshu, I drove past the alley of Shen Mo's house, and I couldn't help but take a second look, and seemed to see a familiar figure, but when I blinked again, the figure was gone. I smiled bitterly in my heart, how could he come out and hang out at this time.
Hua Yuanshu had a day's meeting during the day, and was sitting in the co-pilot with his eyes closed, my sudden braking made him open his eyes, and then he saw the car parked at the mouth of the alley, and he asked, "Ah Zi, what's wrong?" I haven't reached kindergarten yet. ”
His tone was still gentle, but there was an unmistakable toughness in it.
I fixed my mind and said, "It's okay, I seem to have seen an acquaintance." ”
"Shen Mo?" He asked.
I nodded and said, "Yes, but it can't be him, he won't be walking around the area." ”
"Do you want to see him? If you want to go with me, there shouldn't be anyone gossiping, or I deliberately arrange it. Hua Yuanshu asked tentatively.
I took a deep breath and said, "No. ”
The car roared forward, Hua Yuanshu was hit by inertia and hit the back of the chair, but he was still laughing.
Xiaoru and Yueyue are now more and more cheerful, and they are much less hostile to me. When they saw that the two of us had come together today, they laughed as soon as they left the kindergarten gate, and flew like birds.
I stood aside and watched as the two children threw themselves into Hua Yuanshu's arms.
In fact, after this period of contact, I can also see that Hua Yuanshu is a conscientious father, although many times some of his practices are too arbitrary, but his heart is good. He is usually very busy at work, and men's personalities are not as delicate as women, so he can't find out the needs of his children at the first time, but in terms of action, he has worked hard to be a good father.
During this time, because of my mediating role in the middle, his relationship with his two children was also well eased.
"Aunt Zi." Xiao Ru lifted his head off Hua Yuanshu's shoulder, looked at me and called out with a smile, "Where are you going to play later?" ”
She has almost developed a habit, as long as I come with Hua Yuanshu to pick them up, I will take them to find a place to have a good time, and today should be no exception, so I asked this question.
I glanced at Hua Yuanshu, in the past few days, I have been a little poor in donkey skills, there are many places suitable for children in the imperial capital, but I can't afford to go out two or three times a week, and I can't go to heavy places in a short time.
Hua Yuanshu smiled and touched Xiaoru's head and said, "Dad arranged it today." ”
Xiaoru's eyes were shining, tilting her head and kissing Hua Yuanshu's face, Yueyue looked at Hua Yuanshu a little shyly, lowered her head and smiled silently.
I looked at the look on their faces as a child, and I felt relieved that the effort was worth it.
"I'll drive, you can rest." Hua Yuanshu carried the two children to the car, fastened their seat belts, and stuffed me into the passenger seat.
He drove along the Second Ring Road for most of the circle, suddenly turned into a small alley, and then walked along the tall red wall for more than ten minutes before the car entered a small parking lot.
I haven't been here, so I can't help but ask, "What is this?" ”
Hua Yuanshu smiled and said, "This is the only private dish I have hidden, you haven't been here, and the children haven't been here." You'll love it, just go in and find out. ”
I'm looking forward to it.
Hua Yuanshu's living environment since he was a child determines that the restaurant he chooses will definitely be very good in all aspects, whether it is the environment or the dishes.
When my family walked in, I found that it was a small courtyard-style restaurant, with an antique building and a variety of flowers and trees in the courtyard.
"How?" Hua Yuanshu looked at me and asked.
The two children jumped and ran in, along the cobblestone path lined with lilac trees.
"It's good." I say.
In fact, this is a polite remark, as long as I go to the Chinese courtyard to eat, I will think of Shen Mo's nameless residence. I don't know if it's preconceived, or because Shen Mo made the nameless house too classic, when people mention the Chinese courtyard, they will first think of the nameless house.
Hua Yuanshu saw my coping, didn't say anything, took my hand and walked all the way forward.
Turning through a moon gate, the sight in front of you suddenly opened, there are lakes and mountains in front of you, take a closer look, on the hill is actually the white tower of the North Sea.
"This is part of Beihai Park, separated from the White Pagoda across the sea, but the area is small and cannot receive many guests." Hua Yuanshu said, "But it tastes good, and it's Western food." ”
I looked up at him, and he continued, "It's an Italian restaurant, you must like to eat." I remember this is your favorite food. ”
Hua Yuanshu said small, I really saw it, it is true that it can only receive five or six tables of guests, but the environment is really good. Moving back into the dining area, I found that the courtyard was very quiet except for a single guest of us. But it was tastefully furnished, with a band behind a wall of champagne roses, and closest to us was a handsome blonde man with a violin in his hand.
From the moment we entered the restaurant, soothing music played.
Hua Yuanshu saw Xiaoru and Yueyue running to the side to play, and didn't say anything, pulled out a chair for me to sit down, and whispered, "Let them go crazy for a while, let's order food." ”
Hua Yuanshu opened the menu and discussed with me in a soft voice: "I remember that you like to eat this, right, and his little dessert is also very prevaricated, try it, this one or this one?" ”
His voice was low, ringing in my ears.
I nodded in agreement with his proposal, and then the dishes were finalized. When he was still asking, I reached out and stopped: "Too many, enough for now." ”
"Oh, okay then." Hua Yuanshu said.
There are few people in the restaurant, the food is served quickly, and the children also come back to eat together, and when everyone has eaten about the same, Hua Yuanshu glanced at Xiao Ru with a smile and asked, "Xiao Ru, do you want Aunt Ah Zi to play with you every day?" ”
I was about to say something, but Xiaoru nodded immediately, ran to me, hugged my leg and said, "Aunt Azi, live with us, every night when I say goodbye to you, I can be sad." ”
Her sweet voice and tone made my heart melt, and I couldn't help but bend my eyes to look at her, touched her little face and said, "Then you can also go to live with your aunt in the future, there are a lot of fun things in your aunt's house." ”
Hua Yuanshu was still laughing, but he was a little embarrassed.
I looked at him puzzled, Yueyue couldn't stand it anymore, and said in a disgusted tone: "You just said that you want your aunt to be your stepmother, why do you make so many turns?" After speaking, he looked at Hua Yuanshu again, "Dad, a man must be responsible, if you want Aunt Azi to marry you, just say it, what do you want your sister to do." ”
Hua Yuanshu couldn't help but smile to hide his embarrassment and patted Yueyue: "You kid is a big ghost." ”
Yue Yue shook her head and broke free of Hua Yuanshu's hand, and said to me, "Okay, my dad doesn't have the courage, I'll ask for him." Aunt Zi, would you like to live with us? ”
The child can take the initiative to invite me, which makes me feel so warm that I can't look up, and I look up at Hua Yuanshu. But just such a small action, in Yueyue's eyes, as if I was asking Hua Yuanshu's opinion, and immediately said: "You don't have to look at him, he has already asked us if we are willing, and now Xiaoru and I can be sure that we are willing, as long as you don't change in the future." ”
Yueyue didn't have such a character before, and today I was surprised and surprised by Qingda who dared to be so brave today.
Seeing that I hadn't answered positively, Hua Yuanshu couldn't help frowning and said, "Ah Zi, do you still have concerns?" I'd like to talk to you about the wedding, when are we going to get married? ”
I immediately became confused.
I've been looking forward to this for a long time, but I'm a little hesitant to actually see it. If Shen Mo didn't have anything to do and was still with Gu Xin, I would respond to Hua Yuanshu's request, but he is now a person who is suspected by everyone, how can I hold my own wedding at this time.
"Ah Zi." Hua Yuanshu called me again.
"Aunt Zi, don't you agree?" He looked at me with a blank eye.
In fact, there is nothing to disagree with, Hua Yuanshu has prepared everything, and I can't let me disagree.
"You can arrange it, I think this matter should be discussed with my parents." I say.
Hua Yuanshu and the two children's faces burst into laughter, and he said, "Okay, I know your opinion and I know what to do next." ”
I could only nod my head, but my heart was filled with indescribable bitterness at this time.
Shen Mo and I are destined to have nothing to do with each other.
If this happened earlier, the engagement ceremony between me and Hua Yuanshu had not yet been held, and maybe everything could have turned back. Now, I have the illusion that I am the farthest away from Shen Mo when he needs help the most.
Hua Yuanshu saw me nodding, and the joy in his eyes made me swallow back what I wanted to say.
The next day, Hua Yuanshu specially came to discuss the marriage date with Cheng Siyan and Guan Yunzhu, and the two sides actually hit it off, and after soliciting my opinion, they quickly set a wedding date. Hua Yuanshu said that autumn is the most beautiful season, and he is preparing to hold a grand wedding in the autumn of the imperial capital.
When the dust settled, I felt a deep sense of loss in my heart, and I always felt as if I wanted to regret it, but when I saw the smiling faces of the children, I felt that it was good for everything to go on like this.
