"I'm fine, I just feel a little uncomfortable. You go about your business first. When you're done, you have to go to Sister Yingqiao's place. She will also need you there." Xia Taozhi said half-jokingly.

After chatting with her friend for a few more words, she hung up the phone.

"I told you, just wait for Coke to tell me." Her eyes were bright.

She was so happy that she could use this excuse to sleep all day at home tomorrow.

Seeing her so happy, Han Xiao's eyebrows couldn't help softening.

At this time, Xia Mingcheng came down from upstairs: "Taotao."

Seeing her father's expression, Xia Taozhi's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly thought of something: "Dad... tomorrow is mom's birthday."

"Yes." Xia Mingcheng nodded happily, "I want to go visit your mother's grave and see her."

Xia Taozhi: "We are together. I haven't seen my mother for a long time."

The atmosphere between father and daughter became a little sad.

Han Xiao: "Dad, can I go?"

This time it was Xia Taozhi's turn to be stunned.

Her eyes widened with a look of disbelief. Before her father could answer, she refused: "That's not good... I mean you are so busy at work, you still have to focus on the company's affairs."

Are you kidding? How could an outsider visit her mother's grave on her mother's birthday...

Her marriage to Han Xiao was originally fake.

Lying to her father already made her uneasy. If she then tried to lie to her deceased mother, Xia Taozhi could not feel at ease and she was always worried.

Xia Mingcheng said: "It's hard for Ah Xiao to have such a heart and let your mother see your husband. You haven't taken him to visit his grave since you two got married, right? We just took advantage of this opportunity. If you are okay tomorrow, we will Just go together.”

"Thank you, dad." Han Xiao agreed.

Xia Taozhi was speechless.

When things have reached this point, nothing she says can change the facts.

Back in the room, she muttered: "Why do you want to go with us? You obviously don't have to go."

"I want to go, can't I?"

Han Xiao took care of himself and untied his tie, "As I said last time, we are now in the stage of careful consideration. There are some things that should be done and should not be avoided. After all, I am also your husband. Go see your mother. It’s only natural.”

Xia Taozhi:......

Early the next morning, Han Xiao had already asked people to prepare a car and things for sweeping the grave.

I hold a large bouquet of snow-white flowers in my hand. There are carnations, daisies, and my mother’s favorite lilies, tied into an elegant and beautiful bouquet, fragrant and fresh.

Xia Taozhi's eyebrows moved.

Xia Mingcheng was even more excited: "I'm serious. If Taotao's mother sees it, she will definitely like it."

Han Xiao: "Taotao told me last night that my mother liked Lily. This was done temporarily and was a bit hasty."

This was said in a decent and gentle manner, but it made Xia Taozhi, his own daughter, look inferior.

She glanced at Han Xiao again and again.

The man seemed not to notice anything and gave her a smile as warm as the sun.

Xia Taozhi:......

My mother's tomb is on a lonely hill on the outskirts of the city.

A lonely tomb is located on the top of a hill, and a corner of Sichuan City can be seen below the top of the hill.

Xia Taozhi stood in front of the tomb and looked into the distance, feeling heavy.

She cleaned her mother's tombstone, offered flowers and water, and sang the lullaby her mother had given her.The girl's voice, as soft as the wind, echoed in his ears, passing through the treetops in the forest, adding a bit of purity and agility, and even Han Xiao couldn't help but settle down.

After humming the song, she knelt down and said to her mother's tombstone: "Mom, besides me and dad, there is someone you haven't seen today. I want to introduce you to you. This... is Han Xiao. Yes, it's me. husband."

After she said the last sentence, her ears were already burning.

I don't know whether he was embarrassed or panicked.

She kept thinking silently in her mind that they had obtained the certificate, and in a sense they were a legal couple. From this perspective, it should not be considered cheating on her mother.

Han Xiao stepped forward and followed Xia Taozhi's example in saluting and bowing to the tombstone.

"Hello, Mom, I'm Han Xiao."

"I am Taotao's husband. Don't worry, I will take good care of her."

Xia Taozhi's face turned redder and she didn't dare to look at the man beside her.

Xia Mingcheng behind him was filled with relief and nodded slightly.

After talking in front of the tomb for a while, Xia Taozhi took Han Xiao and walked down the mountain.

"Don't we need to stay with your father?" He was puzzled.

"No, at this time in the past he always wanted to stay alone with his mother for a while, and this year is no exception." Xia Taozhi walked along a path, "I'll show you something good."

The girl's figure quickly disappeared into the mottled shadows of the trees.

Han Xiao hurriedly followed.

In front of us is a trail covered with green shades, going all the way through layers of woods, and in the open area in front is a green hillside.

It is already early autumn, and the spring scenery here seems to be unaffected.

Xia Taozhi pointed down the hillside: "Look."

Han Xiao's eyes were shocked: "You can actually see our home from here."

Wait... we can still see the Xia family.

This hillside is condescending. Standing here, you can have a bird's eye view of most of Sichuan City.

The breeze blew against his face, and the magnificent city scroll slowly unfolded before his eyes. Han Xiao couldn't help but sigh: "Is this the purpose of burying your mother here? So that she can see everything in Sichuan City with her own eyes."

"No."

She sat on the soft grass. "It was my mother's decision. She was already very ill at that time, and she specifically told my father that she wanted to be buried here after she left."

Han Xiao sat down next to her.

At this moment, they looked like a young couple having nothing to do and going on an outing together.

"It's beautiful, the scenery is great." He murmured.

Xia Taozhi narrowed her eyes: "I think so too."

"What about the cemetery?" Han Xiao asked.

"That's the tomb. My dad loved my mom very much and always felt that it would be too lonely for her to be buried here alone, so he set up a tombstone in the cemetery to give her multiple places to stay. He will also follow suit in the future. Her ashes are buried here, and a cenotaph is set up in the cemetery."

Xia Taozhi chuckled, "Are the people in our family weird?"

"No, I just feel a little happy that I know you better."

His thin lips curled up slightly, and he seemed to be in a really good mood.

Xia Taozhi glanced sideways: "But I don't even know you very well..."

"That's good, you will accompany me to visit the grave later, and I will take you to meet my mother." Han Xiao opened his mouth and asked, "Do you dare to come?"

"Who doesn't dare?" she retorted subconsciously.

He smiled: "Well, you can't lie in front of your mother, lest she feel uneasy underground."

Xia Taozhi:......

Knowing that Han Xiao was going to take her to another cemetery, Xia Mingcheng agreed: "It's time to go. Go early and come back early. Let's have dinner together in the evening."

"Okay, I'll order another cake." Han Xiao said.
