In an instant, Shu Chi understood.

- Why did Dong Po jump on her feet and scold her as soon as she came up, what little prostitute asked her to come,

And why did Mao Qing keep asking where she was?

Shu Chi looked at Mao Qing deeply, and said lightly while bending down to tie his shoes, "Mao Qing, I didn't contact you in those years, not for anything else, I just didn't want to trouble my friends, let alone affect them......"

Mao Qing was a little sneering, and his tone was pleading, "Shu Chi, I know who you are...... It's just that these years ......"

Shu Chi got up slowly, looked at the tip of Mao Qing's nose that was slightly sweating, and his eyes were firm, "Mao Qing, I know everything, otherwise, you wouldn't have let me in so politely...... Don't worry, if you find Aunt Xiang, I will definitely ask for an understanding......"

Mao Qing was moved and chatted for a while.

Outside the door, there was the sound of crutches landing and the voice of the old woman, "Shu Chi, since you are here, you will stay for a few days......"

Shu Chi's heart was hot, knowing that this Dong Po had changed her mind.

Walking over, I took Dong Po's hand, thinking of this kind neighbor who was blind due to family changes, and felt sad for a while, "Mother-in-law, I'm not living...... I came just to see you and Mao Qing, I didn't expect there to be so many things......"

Dong Po sighed heavily and groped for Shu Chi's hand, "Life, it's all fate!" ”

In the godless eyes, two lines of turbid tears slowly came out, "Shu Chi, you don't know your mother-in-law's heart, these days, open your eyes to my poor granddaughter-in-law and unborn great-grandson, close your eyes are my short-lived son and daughter-in-law...... You say, what kind of sin has my Mao family created? You say, if it weren't for your stepmother who killed that day, how could our family send white-haired people to black-haired people? ……”

In the end, Dong Po fell to the ground weakly, clapped her hands on the ground, and shouted bitterly, "Qi Xiang, you damned dead woman, even if I die as a ghost, I have to find you and make you pay for your blood debt......

Shu Chi stood in place in a daze, bursting into tears.

Compared with his own family changes, Mao Qing's family can be said to have caused trouble, good and decent, and four lives returned to heaven overnight, all because of Aunt Xiang.

After Shu Chi accompanied Dong Po to shed tears for a long time, he felt that it was time for him to leave.

Dong Po insisted that Shu Chi should not be allowed to go, and that they must have a meal together.

Sitting at the dinner table, the Dong Po was obviously in a better mood, chattering with Shu Chi about the past and Shu Chi's current affairs.

Hearing Shu Chi say that he had to take care of his sick brother when he was wandering outside, and talked about his father's suicide in prison and the abuse his younger brother was subjected to in the welfare home, Dong Po and Mao Qing sighed.

"In this world, there is no taste...... "Dong Po sighed.

When Mao Qing sent Shu Chi to the edge of the village to wait for the passing bus, he said with some regret, "Shu Chi, I won't be far away for the time being, grandma is like this, I can't leave ...... I'll go look for you when she's better......"

Shu Chi shook his head, "No need to send it...... Is it true that the mother-in-law's eyes are not legal? ”

Mao Qing looked up into the distance, "I took her to see a lot of doctors, and at first she said that she was in a hurry, took a lot of medicine, and then slowly disappeared...... When I went to a big hospital, the doctor said that the cost of surgery would be high...... Maybe it's because grandma herself doesn't want to treat it, right? ”

Speaking of these, Mao Qing was also full of melancholy. Now, in order to take care of his grandmother, he can't go anywhere, and the lofty ideals of the past are slowly worn away in such a battered day.

Shu Chi nodded, when she came, although she saw that the house where Mao Qing lived was renovated and built, it must have been built when Mao Qing got married.

A long time ago, she knew from Mao Qing's letter to her that Mao Qing had made a lot of money in the south during that time.

"Shu Chi, you know what? I made money to renovate my house and then marry a beautiful daughter-in-law...... Shu Chi, are you considering marrying me? ”

During a phone call, Mao Qing asked Shu Chi with a smile.

Shu Chi laughed and said, "Mao Qing, you have to go to my house and tell my dad to see if he recognizes you......"

……

Although I knew that it was a joke at that time, and that we both had boyfriends and girlfriends, I still laughed for a while when I think about it.

However, within a year of saying this, the respective families were torn apart.

Shu Chi sat on the bus, shaking his hand at Mao Qing, and looking at the luggage bag that Mao Qing handed to him with teary eyes.

When she wanted to find a cup to drink, she found that inside, a neatly folded paper bag, was the 20,000 yuan she put at the head of Mao Qing's bed before she left, and it was also a little bit of her heart to Dong Po.

However, Mao Qing didn't ask for it.

——

At the head of the village, the grandmother sighed, "It's not easy for Shuchi's child...... I didn't have a mother since I was a child, and I was brought up by my adoptive father who was not related by blood...... Now I still know Nian'en, I don't forget my father in prison, and I don't forget my bloodless brother......"

Mao Qing was stunned, "Grandma, Shu Chi, she's really not Uncle Qingming's biological daughter?" ”

"Of course not!" Dong Po affirmed, "According to your Uncle Qingming, she was picked up by your Uncle Qingming outside the door, but over the years, he didn't marry this child he picked up, and until Shu Chi became an adult, he didn't marry Qi Xiang, who had been waiting for him for almost twenty years...... Your Uncle Qingming has no father or mother since he was a child, and it is not easy for a person to get to such an official position......"

Dong Po was immersed in the past, "I didn't understand, he is a man's family, and he is so interested in Shu Chi, the child he picked up, I think it's just his own daughter......"

Mao Qing's eyebrows frowned, "Grandma, Shu Chi won't be Uncle Qingming's biological daughter, right?" ”

Dong Po slammed her crutch on the ground and was more sure, "No." ”

"Why?"

"Grandma's age doesn't look at this yet. Your Uncle Qingming is not only attentive to Shu Chi, but also cautious......" Dong Po fell into deep thought, "Do you remember what Qi Xiang said when he left?" ”

"What?" Mao Qing shook his head blankly, "I only cared about the child's mother at the time......"

"Her voice was not loud, I still heard it clearly, she said to blame Shu Chi, it was her arrival that ruined this family......"

"......" Mao Qing was excited and got up, "Grandma, isn't this nonsense?" It was her—"

Dong Po nodded, "Qi Xiang's account is indispensable to be calculated!" However, it will not be for nothing that she says this Shu Chi......"

"Then grandma, why didn't you say it just now?"

"Silly boy, what kind of child is Shu Chi? What else do I not know? As long as she is not with Qi Xiang, I am relieved......"

After being silent for a while, Dong Po's tone was meaningful, "Mao Qing, if grandma says something serious to Shu Chi, will you still be unhappy?" ”
