Time pays off
Work related
Packed with several booklets, it looks like it has seen better days.Cheng Qinglan knew that it was Master's treasure at the bottom of the box, it was priceless.As a master, Wu Zheng said some words of encouragement, and even gave her the small character "Mao"
As soon as the big sister Meng Jing sent a seal, she asked her master early to find out the characters for the little junior sister, and carved the seal herself.
Aunt Cheng gave a gold bracelet and told Cheng Qinglan that it was passed down from her grandmother, so that she could pass it on to her daughter in the future. Auntie has two daughters, and it is difficult to separate a bracelet, and now it is passed on to Cheng Qinglan. Right, back to the old Cheng's house.
There are too many gifts received later, one by one according to seniority, the elders kneel down to pay respects, say a few forced words, and send a well-prepared small gift.These are far more meaningful than blowing out candles and eating cake.Shen Nian thinks that Jiangcheng's coming-of-age ceremony customs are very good.
Uncle Cheng sent a bag of documents and reports, saying it was the income from the property managed on behalf of her sister. Aunt Cheng gave a large box of assorted jewelry. She said, "Now that I am a big girl, I can dress up properly. The rest will be done by my aunt in the future." I will add more to you slowly."
Qin Yi sent a full set of Apple electronic products. In fact, she and her sister planned to meet Uncle Cheng, and the three of them jointly bought a car to send Cheng Qinglan, but Uncle Cheng told her what kind of car and color the niece liked, and he would go there the next day. Settle the car payment.That's what he told them, the car must be the most suitable gift from uncle, so you can give it whatever you want.Qin Yi was so angry.
The coming-of-age ceremony here is over, and Qin Yiding's birthday cake is also delivered. It is shaped like a little princess wearing a crown, it is more than one meter high, and the layers are very beautiful.
At around 6 o'clock in the evening, the birthday banquet officially started. It was just dark, and the Cheng family turned on all the lights in the house, including the door lights outside.The lights were bright, and three tables were bustlingly seated. Cheng Qinglan and her grandma brought her grandmother's family and the eldest aunt's family to sit at one table. There were still two vacant seats on the table. Cheng Qinglan liked Jiang Yutang very much, so she ran to ask her if she wanted to sit. Jiang Yutang was very happy to come here, she pulled Shen Nian and sat down.
Another gift prepared by Grandma Cheng was given to all the neighbors in the village.In the evening, the film reservations continued, and the banquet continued. Before the banquet at noon, Grandma Cheng asked the person who contracted the banquet to find out what the contracting process was.The movie continued to play, and the dinner in the evening was according to the noon standard.
Grandma Xi Cheng came at noon, and this grandma should do it in the evening.
There are banquets to eat and movies to watch, and the neighbors in the village are not unhappy.
Learning from the lesson of noon, Cheng Qinglan refused to drink any more Coke at night. The red wine she poured into her glass, Shen Nian gave her two pills in the afternoon, one was for digestion, and she was given it right then. It is really effective, and the stomach is not so uncomfortable after eating.
There is also Shen Nian who asked her to put it away first, saying that it can protect the stomach and relieve the hangover.The black pills are the size of quail eggs, and they smell pretty good.Cheng Qinglan took it and put it in her pocket. At that time, she was still curious, did this sister bring the pills with her?Are all doctors like this, or is it just her?
Cheng Qinglan still started to salute from the ones on the main table, and everyone saluted once, with only one sip at a time.That's it, after drinking at their table, they also drank two glasses of red wine.She felt a little dizzy when she sat down, and the voices of others sounded a little far away.
"What's the matter? I'm dizzy!" Sitting beside her, Qin Yi first saw that something was wrong with the little girl, and she was a little slow in picking vegetables, so she leaned over and asked softly.
"It's okay! Maybe I drank a little too fast." Cheng Qinglan leaned her head on the shoulder of her little aunt and whispered to her.
"Small sample! Who told you to drink so much? There are still two tables of people. You little birthday star, you are going to get drunk and perform under the table." Qin Yi pampered the little girl's face, her cheeks turned red, and said she didn't drink many.Qin Yi withdrew his hand and said, "Take a rest first, and you will follow me later, do you understand?"
Cheng Qinglan groaned, sat upright, drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and seemed not so dizzy.
Sitting across from them, Shen Nian saw the interaction between the two of them very clearly, she couldn't tell what she felt, she was a little envious of Qin Yi, it seemed that Cheng Qinglan was very dependent on her little aunt, she was more like a child in front of her.
And she, after all, is a strange sister, and Cheng Qinglan's attitude towards her is always polite.
Shen Nian saw her relying on Qin Yi so unguardedly, and remembered that many years ago, she was the one who took care of the little girl for one night, and the little girl was also very dependent on her. After Qin Yi arrived, he took her away logically, and Cheng Qinglan also Then forget about her.When they met again, they were still strangers.
Shen Nian didn't know why she cared about these things, this kind of emotion was very strange, she rarely paid attention to others before, Cheng Qinglan seemed to be the exception all the time.
"Let's go, take the cup, you are not allowed to drink later, do you hear?" Qin Yi stood up, greeted the people at the table first, and led Cheng Qinglan to toast.
They went to Wu Zheng's table first, and Qin Yi generously introduced herself, telling everyone that she was Cheng Qinglan's aunt, and that the children couldn't drink well, so she offered a toast to all the teachers on behalf of the children.Cheng Qinglan also cooperated with her very much, came to say a few words of thanks, and the teachers smiled and wished her a happy birthday.
Qin Yi drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, refilled the glass, and said, "This glass is my respect to all the teachers, and thank you for taking care of Qing Lan in study and life." After speaking, he was the first to kill it.
The teachers joked, "I always thought you were Qing Lan's sister, but I didn't expect you to be my aunt."
Cheng Qinglan was dumbfounded when she saw how her little aunt was drinking. Why is my little aunt drinking so well, one drink at a time. My aunt had already drank a lot at the main table just now.After thinking about it, she was still worried, took out the pills in her pocket, and whispered something in Qin Yi's ear.
Qin Yi usually has to drink at work, and this little red wine is nothing, but seeing his little niece nervous, it is very useful.
Qin Yi shook his head at her, indicating that he was fine.After Qin Yi greeted the people at the table, he took her hand and went to the next table.
Cheng Qinglan thought to herself, I really don't worry at all, drunks always say that I am not drunk, thinking about it, I said it honestly
"What did you say? Say I'm not worrying, I think you are in a terrible situation, dare to talk to aunt like that!" Qin Yi deliberately pretended to be angry, and laughed and scolded.
Cheng Qinglan was not afraid of her, broke open the pill, took the opportunity to stand on tiptoe, and stuffed the pill into Qin Yi's mouth.
"Well..." Qin Yi was talking, when he was given a pill by surprise, and subconsciously swallowed it.He glared at Cheng Qinglan, didn't bother with her, and then went to the next table.
The toast ended quickly, Qin Yi drank four glasses of red wine, and the two returned to the table to eat in peace.
Most of the dinner table is like this, eating and drinking in the first half, and chatting in the second half.
"Grandma, I just heard that your name is Qinglan, Mao Mao, is that Qinglan's nickname?" Jiang Yutang compared Cheng Qinglan, calling Grandma Cheng Grandma, which is more friendly.
"Oh! That's right. She's been called Mao Mao and Mao Mao all the time. Now that the child is older, she is not allowed to bark. Occasionally, I call her Shun Zui, but I still call her Mao Mao out of habit!" Grandma Cheng laughed when she said this, her granddaughter is like this, When she was five or six years old, she refused to be called by her nickname. Every time she corrected her like an adult, saying that she was called by her first name. Why should she be called by her nickname? Besides, I will go to school soon.You still call me by my nickname, it's too embarrassing to be heard by my classmates.
"Haha, that's how it is, it's so cute, she looks cute, and her nickname is cute too." Jiang Yutang said with a smile, she really likes this little girl.
"Oh! She was born two months prematurely, and she was born like a kitten. I didn't even dare to hug her, fearing that it would be difficult to feed her, so I took a cat's voice and called her Mao Mao" Speaking of this , Grandma Cheng glanced at her granddaughter with a smile.
Everyone at the table laughed, even the teachers at the next table heard it and asked them what's the matter?She laughed so happily, and she also laughed after hearing it, saying that Qinglan's nickname is so cute and suits her very well.
Cheng Qinglan has heard such words too many times. When she was a child, her grandmother always liked to mention what she was like when she was born. Today, there are so many teachers and teachers around, which makes her feel very embarrassed, and she said angrily, "Grandma, you promised me before." I, don’t say these anymore.” However, the momentum was not enough, the little tiger didn’t pretend to be, and fell into the voice of a little sheep.
"Oh, okay, okay, grandma knows she's wrong." Grandma Cheng couldn't help but assure her
"Grandma, speaking of it, my parents have also lived in Jiangcheng for several years. I wonder if you recognize them?" Jiang Yutang looked at Grandma Cheng and said.
Grandma Cheng didn't think much about it. When she heard about Jiangcheng, the population of Jiangcheng was so large that it was difficult for everyone in the same town to know each other. She casually asked her parents' names and said that she might have heard of them.
"My father was a teacher before retiring, named Jiang Zhengming, and my mother was a doctor before retiring, named Yang Chengying." Jiang Yutang didn't take it too seriously, and her parents were not celebrities, they just wanted to get close, and maybe they really knew each other.
"What did you say your mother's name was Yang just now? Did I hear you right, did you mean Yang Chengying?!" Grandma Cheng didn't listen carefully before, thinking about Jiang Zhengming, why did the name sound so familiar.When Jiang Yutang talked about Yang Chengying, it was familiar. The old man of her friend for many years was called Jiang Zhengming. Every time I chatted with Chengying in the past, it was always Lao Jiang. Lao Jiang was used to it. It reflects who Jiang Zhengming is.
"Oh! That's such a coincidence. Your mother and I have been friends for many years. Before we got married, our family was close to each other. We have always had a good relationship." Grandma Cheng suddenly saw her friend's daughter, and she was a little emotional.Speaking of dating for so many years, it was the first time she saw Chengying's daughter.I didn't think about it before, but looking at it carefully now, Jiang Yutang looks very similar to her mother when she was young.
The original casual conversation suddenly turned into a scene of confession, and everyone was more excited, too surprised, and the others were also dumbfounded. Is Jiangcheng so small?
"You are Aunt Qiu! I often heard my mother mention you before, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence!" Jiang Yutang stood up excitedly. She did know that her mother met a good friend many years ago in Jiangcheng. After many times, Jiang Yutang didn't take it to heart, she only knew that her mother had a very good friend, and later she said that she had gone to the capital.Who would have thought that meeting Qinglan's grandma here would be such a surprise.
"Hey, wait, you said that, I see that this little girl is very familiar, have you been to our house?" Seeing Shen Nian sitting next to Jiang Yutang, Grandma Cheng suddenly reflected, Cheng Ying's granddaughter, I have never heard that Chengying has two daughters, the granddaughter back then is the girl in front of her, what is her name Shen, she seems to be called Shen Nian.
Grandma Cheng recalled that on the day Mao Mao was born, Chengying brought a little girl, who she said was her granddaughter, who was young and quite mature. When Mao Mao was born, she was too scared to cut the umbilical cord. Without changing his color, he cut the umbilical cord and gave Mao Mao a bath.Thinking about it this way, Grandma Cheng felt that the little girl's appearance hadn't changed much.
Shen Nian knew that there would be such a moment when her mother opened her mouth to talk to Grandma Cheng. Before that, Shen Nian didn't intend to hide from Grandma Cheng. Today, the grandparents and grandchildren are too busy, and Shen Nian didn't have the chance to meet Grandma Cheng.Shen Nian stood up, and said gently to Grandma Cheng: "Grandma, I did come to your house with grandma when I was young."
Listening to their conversation, Jiang Yutang couldn't figure it out for a while, she didn't know there was such a thing at all, she didn't hear her daughter talk about it, and even her mother didn't mention it.
Now Jiang Yutang suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Shen Nian found the Cheng's compound in the morning. He had been here since he was a child, and this little boring gourd didn't know how to speak up.
13. Dependence
Grandma Cheng said to her granddaughter, "Maomao, you have to give a respectful toe to your sister Shen later, your sister Shen helped you a lot when you were born, and she and Grandma Yang are benefactors of our family."
Cheng Qinglan was confused when she heard it, first she was surprised that Aunt Jiang's mother and grandma were friends, and suddenly jumped to Shen Nian who had been to their house when she was a child, she was fascinated by what she was listening to, when she was suddenly called by her grandma, she stood up inexplicably .I'm still thinking, what?I was born when Shen Nian was there?
Cheng Qinglan asked grandma in surprise, what did you just say?
Grandma Cheng spoke with a sense of substitution, and everyone seemed to be listening to a story.Grandma Cheng said, "18 years ago today, when your mother was pregnant with you, she accidentally fell down and the amniotic fluid broke. The family was not prepared at all, and they were all frightened. The whole family was in a hurry, and your father cried in a hurry. I'm going to run to the hospital with your mother in my arms."
"It was also a coincidence that day. It happened that my friend brought his granddaughter to play at home, that is, your sister Shen and her grandmother. They were also the ones who picked up the baby later."
"You were born more than two months prematurely, and you were born too small. Seeing you so small being held in Grandma Yang's hands, crying like a kitten, and looking very weak, I dare not Your father didn't dare to cut your umbilical cord. Later, it was your sister Shen who cut the umbilical cord. After cutting it, she took a bath and changed your clothes. At that time, your sister Shen was also young, so it was just right to hug you. "
"Wrap you up, and your sister Shen will bring you over and prepare to hand you over to me. I remember clearly that you raised your lower eyelids weakly, and your small eyes narrowed, as if smiling at your sister Shen." , made us very happy at the time.”
"Everyone present said that you are very lucky and you will be fine. When the ambulance arrives, they will take you mother and daughter to the hospital. You, you have been in the hospital for more than two months before you come home... .”
At this time, the living room was very quiet, everyone was listening to Grandma Cheng carefully, including Cheng Qinglan, who didn't expect such things at all, she was a little confused, Shen Nian even cut her umbilical cord?Did you give her a bath?Think about that image. . .I thought to myself that this is some kind of strange fate, the key point is that they sat at the same table to eat again today.
"Speaking of which, if you could have seen it at that time, the first person you saw when you opened your eyes after birth was your elder sister Shen. She was also the one who hugged you first. Do you think you should toast her?" Grandma Cheng smiled added.
Everyone present felt that they were really destined. Who would have thought that 18 years later, they would sit at the same table for dinner again.Shen Nian was the calmest person at the table, she was the only one who knew about it, so she wasn't surprised at all.
Jiang Yutang was probably the most surprised one, so shocked!What kind of fate is this? I don't know what to say at all. In the afternoon, she really thought about recognizing Cheng Qinglan as her daughter.I was reminiscing about the old days with Grandma Cheng, just to lay the groundwork and get acquainted first, and then mention it later when I have a chance, so it won't be too abrupt.I didn't expect to narrate it casually, too many surprises.
The ice cube daughter of their family even cut the umbilical cord for the child, oh my god!Jiang Yutang thought to herself, my mother is too daring to take a child of a few years old to deliver to a pregnant woman.In the past, she always felt that her daughter was too calm, like a robot with no emotions. Apart from studying, she saw a doctor and used medical books and herbs as toys every day.
When Shen Nian was a child, she was brought back to Jiangcheng several times by her grandmother during the summer vacation. Jiang Yutang always thought that her daughter was rescued and went to enjoy the joy of childhood. She never thought that she was also a child laborer studying medicine at her mother's place.
Cheng Qinglan thought about the recent times when she got along with Shen Nian. She didn't know where Shen Nian's familiarity and inexplicable attention to herself came from. It turned out that Shen Nian had known me since she was a child.Then why didn't you mention it when we met?But thinking about it, there's nothing to recognize, you can't say "Hey, I cut your umbilical cord before." With Shen Nian's personality, it's really not very good at talking about these things.
"Sister, I'll toast you again, thank you!" Cheng Qinglan obediently offered another glass of wine.I don't know if it's because I know such a relationship, or because the lights at night are too gentle, Shen Nian just sat there quietly, seeing her now, I feel very kind, and I want to know more about her.
Shen Nian followed and stood up, and after their cups touched, Shen Nian said peacefully, "Happy birthday!"
"Grandma Yang didn't come today, so give Auntie Jiang a drink." Grandma Cheng said to her granddaughter with a smile, she didn't let her granddaughter call her Grandma Yang anymore, she called her according to Shen Nian's relationship.Because the two families had such a relationship, the old lady spoke very cordially with Jiang Yutang's mother and daughter.
Cheng Qinglan poured another glass of red wine, and this time walked up to Jiang Yutang respectfully, toasting her to thank her.Jiang Yutang was very happy and didn't let her drink it all, fearing that the little girl would get drunk, so they both drank half a glass.
Even so, Cheng Qinglan drank a lot tonight, and felt a little dizzy when she got back to her seat. Qin Yi stretched out his hand to put her back in his arms, and handed her a glass of boiled water.
Jiang Yutang and Grandma Cheng talked about their mother's recent situation, and agreed to bring her to play for two days next time.After Grandma Cheng came home, she also called her old friend, and she also agreed to come back to see her soon, but she got closer in the future.
As the senior sister, Meng Jingyi, after listening to the story, came to look for the junior sister with a glass of wine. First, she rubbed her face affectionately, and whispered to the junior sister, and the two laughed together.
Meng Jingyi said, "Junior Sister, Senior Sister knows too many things today. You didn't tell me a word before, which hurt Senior Sister's heart too much. It turns out that your nickname is Mao Mao, haha, you are so cute. In the future, Senior Sister Also call you Mao Mao?"
Cheng Qinglan said "Sister, you are so boring"
"Hey? I remembered, Master gave you the small character "Mao", so you will be called Mao Mao from now on! Ah, Mao Mao, Mao Mao, it's so interesting! Meng Jingyi was planning to go back to her seat, but suddenly Thinking of the character that the master gave to the little junior sister, this is really a coincidence. The more I read it, the more fluent it becomes, I wonder if the master knew that her breast name was Mao Mao, so he took the character Mao.
Then he yelled, "Master! You chose the word Mao, which is very suitable for my junior sister!"
Meng Jing always had a loud voice, and with this voice, the living room fell silent, and followed her to look at Wu Zheng.Even Cheng Qinglan looked at the teacher, wanting to verify if it was what the senior sister said.
"Ah, I didn't know that Qing Lan's nickname was Mao Mao before, but now I hear you say it, and I think it's good, Mao Mao, and it's easy to call." Wu Zheng smiled and looked at the two disciples, one big and one small.
She was chatting with her senior brother next to her, and she was startled by Meng Jing's yowling voice, and she also had a headache when she saw the disciple who was older next year, who always liked to bluff.It's not as calm as a teenage boy. I thought your parents named you Jingyi, and they probably hoped that you could be quiet.
Cheng Qinglan pouted, and said childishly, "Maomao is Maomao, the teacher took it, what can I do!" After speaking, she made a face at her senior sister.
Maybe it's because she's happy today, or maybe it's because of the alcohol that makes it easier to open her heart, and everyone who knows her can feel the change in Cheng Qinglan.Shen Nian sat opposite her, pursed his lips, and was also amused by her cuteness.She thought it was great, she should be like this, at this age, she should live a more flamboyant life.
Hahaha, everyone here laughed along, and Grandma Cheng also felt that the word "granddaughter teacher" was good, "Mao", which means "luxury".Grandma Cheng exchanged views with Grandma Cheng who was beside her, and Grandma Cheng was also cheerful. The old in-laws and the family would get along well.
After the meal, the chef came to collect the table and put on the birthday cake.Qin Yi took out a platinum crown and put it on the little niece, which was exactly the same style as the crown worn by the princess on the cake. This was her birthday present for Cheng Qinglan.
The girl was wearing a red dress, her white and tender cheeks were flushed from drinking, full of youthful beauty, her eyes were crooked when she smiled, her long hair was fluttering, and she was wearing a crown on her head. A princess is more like a princess.
After being dragged by the elders to take a group photo, lighting candles and singing birthday songs, Cheng Qinglan closed her eyes when making a wish, sincerely wishing grandma and grandma good health.
This is probably her most memorable birthday, enough to make up for the vacant ten years, but the biggest regret is that her parents and grandpa are not by her side. This is a vacancy that cannot be filled in this life.
After blowing out the candles, we distributed a small piece of cake to each of us, to taste and express ourselves.
At this time, fireworks started to be set off outside the yard. In the afternoon, under the command of Grandma Cheng, Uncle Cheng drove to Jiangcheng to order a small truck of fireworks, and moved them down to pile them up like a hill. The fireworks seller sent two people to take charge of the fireworks. You don't have to do it yourself.
Rows of fireworks are arranged one by one. The front row is completed, and the rear row is perfectly connected. The dazzling fireworks light up the night sky of the small village. Such a big battle attracted the whole village to come out to watch.
Cheng Qinglan snuggled up to her grandma and grandma, holding the two most important elderly people in her life respectively. They just expressed their love in different ways, and they all cared about her in the same way.They were the ones who protected her in the past, and she should protect them in the future.
The grandparents and grandchildren looked at the sky silently, not knowing what they were thinking, and there was a faint glint in their eyes.
Shen Nian stood with her mother at the farthest corner, looking up at the fireworks, more often she was looking at Cheng Qinglan, Shen Nian silently blessed her in her heart, hoping that she would be safe and successful from now on.Only in this way can he feel at ease and worry less about her.
The fireworks were set off for more than an hour, and the continuous flow was so spectacular that even people in the town came all the way to see it, to find out who made such a big deal and set off so many fireworks.People in the village told them that it was the grandmother who celebrated her granddaughter's 18th birthday.After hearing about it, I feel that this school is another person's tongue-in-cheek.I have to let go of tens of thousands tonight.The villagers thought to themselves, that is the big gold plaque and a large tray of gold bars that you haven't seen brought up.
During the summer vacation, many children came to the hospital to join in the fun. Grandma Cheng asked people to take out the cake and share it, and it was a waste if they couldn't finish it.In this way, the courtyard became more lively.The children were also very polite, spontaneously forming a long queue, and did not forget to say happy birthday to Cheng Qinglan after receiving the cake.
Cheng Qinglan heard many happy birthday words that day.When she looked up at the fireworks, she forced back her tears. She missed her mother, missed her mother's embrace, and missed her calling her baby with a soft Jiangnan accent.In such a day, how could it be possible to forget the mother who gave birth to her.
After the fireworks cleared, the guests left, and the remaining relatives said good night to each other, and went back to their rooms to tidy up and wash up.This special birthday party has come to a successful conclusion.
Back upstairs, Cheng Qinglan was drunk, Qin Yi coaxed her to take a bath first, and ran to the bathroom downstairs to have a quick shower. She knew the little girl too well, and she was not in the right mood at night, Qin Yi thought about finding an opportunity to coax her more at night Little girl, she's going back to the capital tomorrow, so I'm a little worried about leaving like this.
14. Coax her
In the guest room on the second floor, Shen Nian went to take a shower. Jiang Yutang planned to go to the balcony to blow some air. Just as he opened the door, a person fell into his arms. Even Jiang Yutang was so courageous, he was startled and almost cried out. Come.
Still in shock, she lowered her head to look, only to realize that it was this little girl, her little face was red, maybe she was drunk.Cheng Qinglan ran out with her eyes closed, still muttering, little aunt.Thinking that this is recognizing her as Qin Yi?
The short-sleeved pajamas that the little girl was wearing had Hello Kitty printed on them in light pink, her hair was loose, half covering her small face.Nested in her arms, she looked so cute.This should be just after taking a shower, this little drunk, didn't even wipe his hair, holding her for a while, got his clothes wet.
Jiang Yutang thought that there was no reason to talk to a drunk person, so she held him in her arms and took her to the room, intending to take her back to wipe her hair first.As soon as she moved, the little girl in her arms became restless and called, "Little aunt, don't move, it makes me dizzy." Jiang Yutang was annoyed and funny.
He half hugged him and led him to the bed. The little girl was small, so it didn't take much effort.Jiang Yutang grabbed a towel, sat down on the bed and resigned herself to wiping the hair of the little drunk in her arms, so as not to get water everywhere.
Probably feeling uncomfortable after rubbing, the little girl shook her head and burrowed into her arms.Jiang Yutang sighed, thinking that the old lady hadn't taken care of the child for many years, and she was born.
She said that she seemed to have taken care of the children. Back then when Shen Nian was only a few months old, she went back to school and went to work. At that time, it was not like now, there was not such a long maternity leave.
The little girl changed her position, lying in her arms and being honest, her hair was half-dried without moving, Jiang Yutang tried to move her out, ready to put her on the bed to lie down, it was not easy to hold her like this all the time.
"Oh, little aunt, I miss my mother, I miss my mother so much"
Just as Jiang Yutang moved, the little girl in her arms became restless again, rubbing against her neck and muttering softly, her voice sounding muffled.
Jiang Yutang was startled when he heard that, feeling sad and sore, the child was missing his mother, Jiang Yutang took her back into his arms with pity, and stroked her back.
well!On such an important day, how could she miss her mother? At her age, she was still talking about her mother, let alone such a young child.After hearing many stories about the Cheng family's past today, Jiang Yutang sighed in his heart how difficult it was for the grandparents and grandsons of the Cheng family, and once again thought about not recognizing the little girl as a daughter.
"I want mommy, mommy..."
The little girl suddenly started to struggle, whining and crying for her mother, which made Jiang Yutang momentarily at a loss. Shen Nian was too obedient when she was a child, she never used her to coax her. She is really inexperienced and doesn't know how to coax children.
Seeing the little girl with her eyes closed, muttering about wanting her mother, tears slowly rolling down, Jiang Yutang hated this scene the most, felt pity, and felt distressed.I thought, there is nothing else to do!Try coaxing it.
"Be good, don't cry, mom is here, look, mom is here!" Jiang Yutang hypnotized herself, softly coaxing the little girl in her arms.Anyway, it's not a loss for the little girl to call her mother, and it's not a loss for her.Think of it as an early call, anyway, she also intends to recognize this goddaughter.
Cheng Qinglan was so drunk, as if she heard someone talking in her ear, she let out her emotions and cried, "Mom, I miss you so much, Mom..."
Seeing her like this, Jiang Yutang's heart was so soft that she couldn't bear to let her go. The little girl who was still smiling during the day showed her true feelings when she was drunk. She thought to herself, cry, it's good if you can cry.Jiang Yutang patted the little girl's back with her hands to calm her down.
He continued, "Good boy, mom is here."
Xu's embrace was too warm, Cheng Qinglan thought that she really hugged her mother in her dream, and hugged Jiang Yutang's neck tightly with both hands.
Jiang Yutang was taken aback by her embrace, then softened her body, trying to make the little girl as comfortable as possible.I thought to myself, it feels pretty good, the little arms are tightly hugged, the body is fragrant and soft, and it feels good to hold it. Jiang Yutang is feeling beautiful in her heart, so she heard the little girl in her arms say:
"No, you're not my mother! No, that's not what my mother called me..."
Jiang Yutang was startled, wondering if she was drunk or not, and she could tell if it wasn't her mother.The point is, I don't know what your mother called you?well!It's hard to coax a child, but it's even harder to coax a drunk child
Thinking this way in my heart, I continued coaxing, "Then why did mother call you before?"
The little girl in her arms closed her eyes, choked up, rubbed her neck and said, "Mom, mom called me baby"
have to!This is also a little custom-made, and he can still talk when he is drunk, this kid is also a god.Jiang Yutang resigned to her fate, and it was not easy to recognize a goddaughter.What can we do? Let's cooperate!Just take it as a practice in advance, and I will always coax the little girl to call her mother in the future.
"Baby is good, mom is here." Jiang Yutang tried her best to be a robot to coax the children, doing her duty.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,She kept soothing her softly, "Good baby, good baby, mom is here, don't cry."
Shen Nian came back from the bathroom after drying her hair, pushed open the door and saw her mother was holding someone in her arms, and was stunned at the door.
Jiang Yutang explained to Shen Nian in a low voice, "The little girl was drunk and came to our room, she might have regarded me as her little aunt. She's been crying for her mother all the time, what a poor little girl, alas!"
"Come on, mom, go take a shower." Shen Nian understood what was going on, and walked to the bed very calmly.
Jiang Yutang was a little surprised, when did her own daughter become so humane, and she even asked for someone to take care of her, but when she thought about it, everyone had cut the umbilical cord for the little girl, so what would she do if she coaxed her.
Thinking of cutting the umbilical cord, Jiang Yutang wanted to laugh, and told her husband when she got home that your daughter had cut the umbilical cord when she was young, haha, it's interesting to think about it.Jiang Yutang was so imaginative that she almost burst into laughter, but she carefully handed over the little girl in her arms to Shen Nian, fearing that the little girl would be difficult to coax if she continued to make trouble.
With a calm expression, Shen Nian took Cheng Qinglan and hugged her in her arms, signaling to her mother to take a bath quickly.
Jiang Yutang took her clothes and left, and the room became quiet again.
Shen Nian slightly lowered his head to look at the little girl in his arms, his cheeks were a little red, tears were still hanging on his long eyelashes, he slept peacefully in her arms.The last time I hugged her like this was ten years ago, I never thought I could see her so closely again.
Today, I participated in her school entrance banquet and witnessed her coming-of-age ceremony.In the future, they should not have any more intersections, and in fact, there is no regret about it.Seeing that she was growing up well and living happily, Shen Nian was very relieved and felt that this time was not in vain.
The little girl in my memory has grown up, her eyebrows and eyes are opened, she is more delicate and beautiful, her eyes are closed, her long hair looks like a doll, very much like the pencil case her father bought for her when she was a child, there is a small one on the lid Twinkle doll that automatically closes its eyes.
The girl in "Mom" said "Mom" again, and rubbed Shen Nian's neck with her clean forehead.Shen Nian didn't make a sound, hugged her tightly with one hand, and imitated her mother's movement just now, patting her on the back lightly.
She could smell the fragrance of the shower gel emanating from the girl's body, mixed with a faint smell of alcohol. Make her happy.
After taking a shower downstairs, Qin Yi was called by his mother to have a conversation, and this delay made him come back a bit late.
When she came back, she saw that the door of the room was open, and she looked around for no one in the room, and the door of the bathroom was also open, but there was no one in it.
Qin Yi wondered where he was going. It was so late, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried.Called Maomao several times in the room, but no one answered.He didn't take his mobile phone by the bed, thinking whether he would go to talk to her teacher, but he was still worried. Qin Yi first found Wu Zheng's room, knocked on the door and asked, but no one came.He went to another room to ask, and soon found Shen Nian's mother and daughter's room.
When Shen Nian heard the knock on the door, she softly said "Please come in". She already guessed who it was.
Sure enough, it was Qin Yi who came to find him.
Qin Yi pushed open the door, saw the little niece half-held in Shen Nian's arms, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was going on.
"She's drunk, she must have touched the wrong door when she came out to look for you." Shen Nian looked at Qin Yi, it was useless for her to ask, so she took the initiative to tell her.
She knew that Cheng Qinglan was very close to the little aunt in front of her and depended on her very much.Qin Yi couldn't come to look for him anymore, Shen Nian also planned to send him back.
"Oh, excuse me, I'll take her back to the room." Qin Yi guessed the same, the two rooms are closest to each other, so it's normal to be confused and touch the wrong one.As he said that, he was about to come and hug Cheng Qinglan.
"Let me do it." Shen Nian didn't let her hug her, adjusted the posture of the little girl in her arms, and easily hugged her in her arms, which was lighter than she expected.
Qin Yi stared blankly, thinking that this girl looks very thin, but she has a lot of strength.Nodding slightly, he turned around and opened the door for them to come out, and walked ahead to lead the way.
Shen Nian followed her to the room, carefully put Cheng Qinglan back on the bed, covered her with the quilt, and slept so deeply that she didn't wake up.
Shen Nian glanced at her again, then turned around and walked towards the door. Qin Yi followed her and sent her outside.
"I'll go back and get the medicine. If she wakes up at night, let her take it, otherwise she will have a headache when she wakes up tomorrow." Standing at the door, Shen Nian said to Qin Yi calmly.The voice is soft, less cold and alienated during the day.
Qin Yi looked at the young girl in front of her. Today, my aunt only talked about the intersection with Mao Mao when she was born, and didn't mention the funeral ten years ago.Qin Yi remembered very clearly that the girl in front of him was also there ten years ago, and she was taking care of Mao Mao.It can be seen that her attitude towards Mao Mao is different from that of ordinary people.
No matter what kind of person the other party is, the character
As soon as the big sister Meng Jing sent a seal, she asked her master early to find out the characters for the little junior sister, and carved the seal herself.
Aunt Cheng gave a gold bracelet and told Cheng Qinglan that it was passed down from her grandmother, so that she could pass it on to her daughter in the future. Auntie has two daughters, and it is difficult to separate a bracelet, and now it is passed on to Cheng Qinglan. Right, back to the old Cheng's house.
There are too many gifts received later, one by one according to seniority, the elders kneel down to pay respects, say a few forced words, and send a well-prepared small gift.These are far more meaningful than blowing out candles and eating cake.Shen Nian thinks that Jiangcheng's coming-of-age ceremony customs are very good.
Uncle Cheng sent a bag of documents and reports, saying it was the income from the property managed on behalf of her sister. Aunt Cheng gave a large box of assorted jewelry. She said, "Now that I am a big girl, I can dress up properly. The rest will be done by my aunt in the future." I will add more to you slowly."
Qin Yi sent a full set of Apple electronic products. In fact, she and her sister planned to meet Uncle Cheng, and the three of them jointly bought a car to send Cheng Qinglan, but Uncle Cheng told her what kind of car and color the niece liked, and he would go there the next day. Settle the car payment.That's what he told them, the car must be the most suitable gift from uncle, so you can give it whatever you want.Qin Yi was so angry.
The coming-of-age ceremony here is over, and Qin Yiding's birthday cake is also delivered. It is shaped like a little princess wearing a crown, it is more than one meter high, and the layers are very beautiful.
At around 6 o'clock in the evening, the birthday banquet officially started. It was just dark, and the Cheng family turned on all the lights in the house, including the door lights outside.The lights were bright, and three tables were bustlingly seated. Cheng Qinglan and her grandma brought her grandmother's family and the eldest aunt's family to sit at one table. There were still two vacant seats on the table. Cheng Qinglan liked Jiang Yutang very much, so she ran to ask her if she wanted to sit. Jiang Yutang was very happy to come here, she pulled Shen Nian and sat down.
Another gift prepared by Grandma Cheng was given to all the neighbors in the village.In the evening, the film reservations continued, and the banquet continued. Before the banquet at noon, Grandma Cheng asked the person who contracted the banquet to find out what the contracting process was.The movie continued to play, and the dinner in the evening was according to the noon standard.
Grandma Xi Cheng came at noon, and this grandma should do it in the evening.
There are banquets to eat and movies to watch, and the neighbors in the village are not unhappy.
Learning from the lesson of noon, Cheng Qinglan refused to drink any more Coke at night. The red wine she poured into her glass, Shen Nian gave her two pills in the afternoon, one was for digestion, and she was given it right then. It is really effective, and the stomach is not so uncomfortable after eating.
There is also Shen Nian who asked her to put it away first, saying that it can protect the stomach and relieve the hangover.The black pills are the size of quail eggs, and they smell pretty good.Cheng Qinglan took it and put it in her pocket. At that time, she was still curious, did this sister bring the pills with her?Are all doctors like this, or is it just her?
Cheng Qinglan still started to salute from the ones on the main table, and everyone saluted once, with only one sip at a time.That's it, after drinking at their table, they also drank two glasses of red wine.She felt a little dizzy when she sat down, and the voices of others sounded a little far away.
"What's the matter? I'm dizzy!" Sitting beside her, Qin Yi first saw that something was wrong with the little girl, and she was a little slow in picking vegetables, so she leaned over and asked softly.
"It's okay! Maybe I drank a little too fast." Cheng Qinglan leaned her head on the shoulder of her little aunt and whispered to her.
"Small sample! Who told you to drink so much? There are still two tables of people. You little birthday star, you are going to get drunk and perform under the table." Qin Yi pampered the little girl's face, her cheeks turned red, and said she didn't drink many.Qin Yi withdrew his hand and said, "Take a rest first, and you will follow me later, do you understand?"
Cheng Qinglan groaned, sat upright, drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and seemed not so dizzy.
Sitting across from them, Shen Nian saw the interaction between the two of them very clearly, she couldn't tell what she felt, she was a little envious of Qin Yi, it seemed that Cheng Qinglan was very dependent on her little aunt, she was more like a child in front of her.
And she, after all, is a strange sister, and Cheng Qinglan's attitude towards her is always polite.
Shen Nian saw her relying on Qin Yi so unguardedly, and remembered that many years ago, she was the one who took care of the little girl for one night, and the little girl was also very dependent on her. After Qin Yi arrived, he took her away logically, and Cheng Qinglan also Then forget about her.When they met again, they were still strangers.
Shen Nian didn't know why she cared about these things, this kind of emotion was very strange, she rarely paid attention to others before, Cheng Qinglan seemed to be the exception all the time.
"Let's go, take the cup, you are not allowed to drink later, do you hear?" Qin Yi stood up, greeted the people at the table first, and led Cheng Qinglan to toast.
They went to Wu Zheng's table first, and Qin Yi generously introduced herself, telling everyone that she was Cheng Qinglan's aunt, and that the children couldn't drink well, so she offered a toast to all the teachers on behalf of the children.Cheng Qinglan also cooperated with her very much, came to say a few words of thanks, and the teachers smiled and wished her a happy birthday.
Qin Yi drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, refilled the glass, and said, "This glass is my respect to all the teachers, and thank you for taking care of Qing Lan in study and life." After speaking, he was the first to kill it.
The teachers joked, "I always thought you were Qing Lan's sister, but I didn't expect you to be my aunt."
Cheng Qinglan was dumbfounded when she saw how her little aunt was drinking. Why is my little aunt drinking so well, one drink at a time. My aunt had already drank a lot at the main table just now.After thinking about it, she was still worried, took out the pills in her pocket, and whispered something in Qin Yi's ear.
Qin Yi usually has to drink at work, and this little red wine is nothing, but seeing his little niece nervous, it is very useful.
Qin Yi shook his head at her, indicating that he was fine.After Qin Yi greeted the people at the table, he took her hand and went to the next table.
Cheng Qinglan thought to herself, I really don't worry at all, drunks always say that I am not drunk, thinking about it, I said it honestly
"What did you say? Say I'm not worrying, I think you are in a terrible situation, dare to talk to aunt like that!" Qin Yi deliberately pretended to be angry, and laughed and scolded.
Cheng Qinglan was not afraid of her, broke open the pill, took the opportunity to stand on tiptoe, and stuffed the pill into Qin Yi's mouth.
"Well..." Qin Yi was talking, when he was given a pill by surprise, and subconsciously swallowed it.He glared at Cheng Qinglan, didn't bother with her, and then went to the next table.
The toast ended quickly, Qin Yi drank four glasses of red wine, and the two returned to the table to eat in peace.
Most of the dinner table is like this, eating and drinking in the first half, and chatting in the second half.
"Grandma, I just heard that your name is Qinglan, Mao Mao, is that Qinglan's nickname?" Jiang Yutang compared Cheng Qinglan, calling Grandma Cheng Grandma, which is more friendly.
"Oh! That's right. She's been called Mao Mao and Mao Mao all the time. Now that the child is older, she is not allowed to bark. Occasionally, I call her Shun Zui, but I still call her Mao Mao out of habit!" Grandma Cheng laughed when she said this, her granddaughter is like this, When she was five or six years old, she refused to be called by her nickname. Every time she corrected her like an adult, saying that she was called by her first name. Why should she be called by her nickname? Besides, I will go to school soon.You still call me by my nickname, it's too embarrassing to be heard by my classmates.
"Haha, that's how it is, it's so cute, she looks cute, and her nickname is cute too." Jiang Yutang said with a smile, she really likes this little girl.
"Oh! She was born two months prematurely, and she was born like a kitten. I didn't even dare to hug her, fearing that it would be difficult to feed her, so I took a cat's voice and called her Mao Mao" Speaking of this , Grandma Cheng glanced at her granddaughter with a smile.
Everyone at the table laughed, even the teachers at the next table heard it and asked them what's the matter?She laughed so happily, and she also laughed after hearing it, saying that Qinglan's nickname is so cute and suits her very well.
Cheng Qinglan has heard such words too many times. When she was a child, her grandmother always liked to mention what she was like when she was born. Today, there are so many teachers and teachers around, which makes her feel very embarrassed, and she said angrily, "Grandma, you promised me before." I, don’t say these anymore.” However, the momentum was not enough, the little tiger didn’t pretend to be, and fell into the voice of a little sheep.
"Oh, okay, okay, grandma knows she's wrong." Grandma Cheng couldn't help but assure her
"Grandma, speaking of it, my parents have also lived in Jiangcheng for several years. I wonder if you recognize them?" Jiang Yutang looked at Grandma Cheng and said.
Grandma Cheng didn't think much about it. When she heard about Jiangcheng, the population of Jiangcheng was so large that it was difficult for everyone in the same town to know each other. She casually asked her parents' names and said that she might have heard of them.
"My father was a teacher before retiring, named Jiang Zhengming, and my mother was a doctor before retiring, named Yang Chengying." Jiang Yutang didn't take it too seriously, and her parents were not celebrities, they just wanted to get close, and maybe they really knew each other.
"What did you say your mother's name was Yang just now? Did I hear you right, did you mean Yang Chengying?!" Grandma Cheng didn't listen carefully before, thinking about Jiang Zhengming, why did the name sound so familiar.When Jiang Yutang talked about Yang Chengying, it was familiar. The old man of her friend for many years was called Jiang Zhengming. Every time I chatted with Chengying in the past, it was always Lao Jiang. Lao Jiang was used to it. It reflects who Jiang Zhengming is.
"Oh! That's such a coincidence. Your mother and I have been friends for many years. Before we got married, our family was close to each other. We have always had a good relationship." Grandma Cheng suddenly saw her friend's daughter, and she was a little emotional.Speaking of dating for so many years, it was the first time she saw Chengying's daughter.I didn't think about it before, but looking at it carefully now, Jiang Yutang looks very similar to her mother when she was young.
The original casual conversation suddenly turned into a scene of confession, and everyone was more excited, too surprised, and the others were also dumbfounded. Is Jiangcheng so small?
"You are Aunt Qiu! I often heard my mother mention you before, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence!" Jiang Yutang stood up excitedly. She did know that her mother met a good friend many years ago in Jiangcheng. After many times, Jiang Yutang didn't take it to heart, she only knew that her mother had a very good friend, and later she said that she had gone to the capital.Who would have thought that meeting Qinglan's grandma here would be such a surprise.
"Hey, wait, you said that, I see that this little girl is very familiar, have you been to our house?" Seeing Shen Nian sitting next to Jiang Yutang, Grandma Cheng suddenly reflected, Cheng Ying's granddaughter, I have never heard that Chengying has two daughters, the granddaughter back then is the girl in front of her, what is her name Shen, she seems to be called Shen Nian.
Grandma Cheng recalled that on the day Mao Mao was born, Chengying brought a little girl, who she said was her granddaughter, who was young and quite mature. When Mao Mao was born, she was too scared to cut the umbilical cord. Without changing his color, he cut the umbilical cord and gave Mao Mao a bath.Thinking about it this way, Grandma Cheng felt that the little girl's appearance hadn't changed much.
Shen Nian knew that there would be such a moment when her mother opened her mouth to talk to Grandma Cheng. Before that, Shen Nian didn't intend to hide from Grandma Cheng. Today, the grandparents and grandchildren are too busy, and Shen Nian didn't have the chance to meet Grandma Cheng.Shen Nian stood up, and said gently to Grandma Cheng: "Grandma, I did come to your house with grandma when I was young."
Listening to their conversation, Jiang Yutang couldn't figure it out for a while, she didn't know there was such a thing at all, she didn't hear her daughter talk about it, and even her mother didn't mention it.
Now Jiang Yutang suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Shen Nian found the Cheng's compound in the morning. He had been here since he was a child, and this little boring gourd didn't know how to speak up.
13. Dependence
Grandma Cheng said to her granddaughter, "Maomao, you have to give a respectful toe to your sister Shen later, your sister Shen helped you a lot when you were born, and she and Grandma Yang are benefactors of our family."
Cheng Qinglan was confused when she heard it, first she was surprised that Aunt Jiang's mother and grandma were friends, and suddenly jumped to Shen Nian who had been to their house when she was a child, she was fascinated by what she was listening to, when she was suddenly called by her grandma, she stood up inexplicably .I'm still thinking, what?I was born when Shen Nian was there?
Cheng Qinglan asked grandma in surprise, what did you just say?
Grandma Cheng spoke with a sense of substitution, and everyone seemed to be listening to a story.Grandma Cheng said, "18 years ago today, when your mother was pregnant with you, she accidentally fell down and the amniotic fluid broke. The family was not prepared at all, and they were all frightened. The whole family was in a hurry, and your father cried in a hurry. I'm going to run to the hospital with your mother in my arms."
"It was also a coincidence that day. It happened that my friend brought his granddaughter to play at home, that is, your sister Shen and her grandmother. They were also the ones who picked up the baby later."
"You were born more than two months prematurely, and you were born too small. Seeing you so small being held in Grandma Yang's hands, crying like a kitten, and looking very weak, I dare not Your father didn't dare to cut your umbilical cord. Later, it was your sister Shen who cut the umbilical cord. After cutting it, she took a bath and changed your clothes. At that time, your sister Shen was also young, so it was just right to hug you. "
"Wrap you up, and your sister Shen will bring you over and prepare to hand you over to me. I remember clearly that you raised your lower eyelids weakly, and your small eyes narrowed, as if smiling at your sister Shen." , made us very happy at the time.”
"Everyone present said that you are very lucky and you will be fine. When the ambulance arrives, they will take you mother and daughter to the hospital. You, you have been in the hospital for more than two months before you come home... .”
At this time, the living room was very quiet, everyone was listening to Grandma Cheng carefully, including Cheng Qinglan, who didn't expect such things at all, she was a little confused, Shen Nian even cut her umbilical cord?Did you give her a bath?Think about that image. . .I thought to myself that this is some kind of strange fate, the key point is that they sat at the same table to eat again today.
"Speaking of which, if you could have seen it at that time, the first person you saw when you opened your eyes after birth was your elder sister Shen. She was also the one who hugged you first. Do you think you should toast her?" Grandma Cheng smiled added.
Everyone present felt that they were really destined. Who would have thought that 18 years later, they would sit at the same table for dinner again.Shen Nian was the calmest person at the table, she was the only one who knew about it, so she wasn't surprised at all.
Jiang Yutang was probably the most surprised one, so shocked!What kind of fate is this? I don't know what to say at all. In the afternoon, she really thought about recognizing Cheng Qinglan as her daughter.I was reminiscing about the old days with Grandma Cheng, just to lay the groundwork and get acquainted first, and then mention it later when I have a chance, so it won't be too abrupt.I didn't expect to narrate it casually, too many surprises.
The ice cube daughter of their family even cut the umbilical cord for the child, oh my god!Jiang Yutang thought to herself, my mother is too daring to take a child of a few years old to deliver to a pregnant woman.In the past, she always felt that her daughter was too calm, like a robot with no emotions. Apart from studying, she saw a doctor and used medical books and herbs as toys every day.
When Shen Nian was a child, she was brought back to Jiangcheng several times by her grandmother during the summer vacation. Jiang Yutang always thought that her daughter was rescued and went to enjoy the joy of childhood. She never thought that she was also a child laborer studying medicine at her mother's place.
Cheng Qinglan thought about the recent times when she got along with Shen Nian. She didn't know where Shen Nian's familiarity and inexplicable attention to herself came from. It turned out that Shen Nian had known me since she was a child.Then why didn't you mention it when we met?But thinking about it, there's nothing to recognize, you can't say "Hey, I cut your umbilical cord before." With Shen Nian's personality, it's really not very good at talking about these things.
"Sister, I'll toast you again, thank you!" Cheng Qinglan obediently offered another glass of wine.I don't know if it's because I know such a relationship, or because the lights at night are too gentle, Shen Nian just sat there quietly, seeing her now, I feel very kind, and I want to know more about her.
Shen Nian followed and stood up, and after their cups touched, Shen Nian said peacefully, "Happy birthday!"
"Grandma Yang didn't come today, so give Auntie Jiang a drink." Grandma Cheng said to her granddaughter with a smile, she didn't let her granddaughter call her Grandma Yang anymore, she called her according to Shen Nian's relationship.Because the two families had such a relationship, the old lady spoke very cordially with Jiang Yutang's mother and daughter.
Cheng Qinglan poured another glass of red wine, and this time walked up to Jiang Yutang respectfully, toasting her to thank her.Jiang Yutang was very happy and didn't let her drink it all, fearing that the little girl would get drunk, so they both drank half a glass.
Even so, Cheng Qinglan drank a lot tonight, and felt a little dizzy when she got back to her seat. Qin Yi stretched out his hand to put her back in his arms, and handed her a glass of boiled water.
Jiang Yutang and Grandma Cheng talked about their mother's recent situation, and agreed to bring her to play for two days next time.After Grandma Cheng came home, she also called her old friend, and she also agreed to come back to see her soon, but she got closer in the future.
As the senior sister, Meng Jingyi, after listening to the story, came to look for the junior sister with a glass of wine. First, she rubbed her face affectionately, and whispered to the junior sister, and the two laughed together.
Meng Jingyi said, "Junior Sister, Senior Sister knows too many things today. You didn't tell me a word before, which hurt Senior Sister's heart too much. It turns out that your nickname is Mao Mao, haha, you are so cute. In the future, Senior Sister Also call you Mao Mao?"
Cheng Qinglan said "Sister, you are so boring"
"Hey? I remembered, Master gave you the small character "Mao", so you will be called Mao Mao from now on! Ah, Mao Mao, Mao Mao, it's so interesting! Meng Jingyi was planning to go back to her seat, but suddenly Thinking of the character that the master gave to the little junior sister, this is really a coincidence. The more I read it, the more fluent it becomes, I wonder if the master knew that her breast name was Mao Mao, so he took the character Mao.
Then he yelled, "Master! You chose the word Mao, which is very suitable for my junior sister!"
Meng Jing always had a loud voice, and with this voice, the living room fell silent, and followed her to look at Wu Zheng.Even Cheng Qinglan looked at the teacher, wanting to verify if it was what the senior sister said.
"Ah, I didn't know that Qing Lan's nickname was Mao Mao before, but now I hear you say it, and I think it's good, Mao Mao, and it's easy to call." Wu Zheng smiled and looked at the two disciples, one big and one small.
She was chatting with her senior brother next to her, and she was startled by Meng Jing's yowling voice, and she also had a headache when she saw the disciple who was older next year, who always liked to bluff.It's not as calm as a teenage boy. I thought your parents named you Jingyi, and they probably hoped that you could be quiet.
Cheng Qinglan pouted, and said childishly, "Maomao is Maomao, the teacher took it, what can I do!" After speaking, she made a face at her senior sister.
Maybe it's because she's happy today, or maybe it's because of the alcohol that makes it easier to open her heart, and everyone who knows her can feel the change in Cheng Qinglan.Shen Nian sat opposite her, pursed his lips, and was also amused by her cuteness.She thought it was great, she should be like this, at this age, she should live a more flamboyant life.
Hahaha, everyone here laughed along, and Grandma Cheng also felt that the word "granddaughter teacher" was good, "Mao", which means "luxury".Grandma Cheng exchanged views with Grandma Cheng who was beside her, and Grandma Cheng was also cheerful. The old in-laws and the family would get along well.
After the meal, the chef came to collect the table and put on the birthday cake.Qin Yi took out a platinum crown and put it on the little niece, which was exactly the same style as the crown worn by the princess on the cake. This was her birthday present for Cheng Qinglan.
The girl was wearing a red dress, her white and tender cheeks were flushed from drinking, full of youthful beauty, her eyes were crooked when she smiled, her long hair was fluttering, and she was wearing a crown on her head. A princess is more like a princess.
After being dragged by the elders to take a group photo, lighting candles and singing birthday songs, Cheng Qinglan closed her eyes when making a wish, sincerely wishing grandma and grandma good health.
This is probably her most memorable birthday, enough to make up for the vacant ten years, but the biggest regret is that her parents and grandpa are not by her side. This is a vacancy that cannot be filled in this life.
After blowing out the candles, we distributed a small piece of cake to each of us, to taste and express ourselves.
At this time, fireworks started to be set off outside the yard. In the afternoon, under the command of Grandma Cheng, Uncle Cheng drove to Jiangcheng to order a small truck of fireworks, and moved them down to pile them up like a hill. The fireworks seller sent two people to take charge of the fireworks. You don't have to do it yourself.
Rows of fireworks are arranged one by one. The front row is completed, and the rear row is perfectly connected. The dazzling fireworks light up the night sky of the small village. Such a big battle attracted the whole village to come out to watch.
Cheng Qinglan snuggled up to her grandma and grandma, holding the two most important elderly people in her life respectively. They just expressed their love in different ways, and they all cared about her in the same way.They were the ones who protected her in the past, and she should protect them in the future.
The grandparents and grandchildren looked at the sky silently, not knowing what they were thinking, and there was a faint glint in their eyes.
Shen Nian stood with her mother at the farthest corner, looking up at the fireworks, more often she was looking at Cheng Qinglan, Shen Nian silently blessed her in her heart, hoping that she would be safe and successful from now on.Only in this way can he feel at ease and worry less about her.
The fireworks were set off for more than an hour, and the continuous flow was so spectacular that even people in the town came all the way to see it, to find out who made such a big deal and set off so many fireworks.People in the village told them that it was the grandmother who celebrated her granddaughter's 18th birthday.After hearing about it, I feel that this school is another person's tongue-in-cheek.I have to let go of tens of thousands tonight.The villagers thought to themselves, that is the big gold plaque and a large tray of gold bars that you haven't seen brought up.
During the summer vacation, many children came to the hospital to join in the fun. Grandma Cheng asked people to take out the cake and share it, and it was a waste if they couldn't finish it.In this way, the courtyard became more lively.The children were also very polite, spontaneously forming a long queue, and did not forget to say happy birthday to Cheng Qinglan after receiving the cake.
Cheng Qinglan heard many happy birthday words that day.When she looked up at the fireworks, she forced back her tears. She missed her mother, missed her mother's embrace, and missed her calling her baby with a soft Jiangnan accent.In such a day, how could it be possible to forget the mother who gave birth to her.
After the fireworks cleared, the guests left, and the remaining relatives said good night to each other, and went back to their rooms to tidy up and wash up.This special birthday party has come to a successful conclusion.
Back upstairs, Cheng Qinglan was drunk, Qin Yi coaxed her to take a bath first, and ran to the bathroom downstairs to have a quick shower. She knew the little girl too well, and she was not in the right mood at night, Qin Yi thought about finding an opportunity to coax her more at night Little girl, she's going back to the capital tomorrow, so I'm a little worried about leaving like this.
14. Coax her
In the guest room on the second floor, Shen Nian went to take a shower. Jiang Yutang planned to go to the balcony to blow some air. Just as he opened the door, a person fell into his arms. Even Jiang Yutang was so courageous, he was startled and almost cried out. Come.
Still in shock, she lowered her head to look, only to realize that it was this little girl, her little face was red, maybe she was drunk.Cheng Qinglan ran out with her eyes closed, still muttering, little aunt.Thinking that this is recognizing her as Qin Yi?
The short-sleeved pajamas that the little girl was wearing had Hello Kitty printed on them in light pink, her hair was loose, half covering her small face.Nested in her arms, she looked so cute.This should be just after taking a shower, this little drunk, didn't even wipe his hair, holding her for a while, got his clothes wet.
Jiang Yutang thought that there was no reason to talk to a drunk person, so she held him in her arms and took her to the room, intending to take her back to wipe her hair first.As soon as she moved, the little girl in her arms became restless and called, "Little aunt, don't move, it makes me dizzy." Jiang Yutang was annoyed and funny.
He half hugged him and led him to the bed. The little girl was small, so it didn't take much effort.Jiang Yutang grabbed a towel, sat down on the bed and resigned herself to wiping the hair of the little drunk in her arms, so as not to get water everywhere.
Probably feeling uncomfortable after rubbing, the little girl shook her head and burrowed into her arms.Jiang Yutang sighed, thinking that the old lady hadn't taken care of the child for many years, and she was born.
She said that she seemed to have taken care of the children. Back then when Shen Nian was only a few months old, she went back to school and went to work. At that time, it was not like now, there was not such a long maternity leave.
The little girl changed her position, lying in her arms and being honest, her hair was half-dried without moving, Jiang Yutang tried to move her out, ready to put her on the bed to lie down, it was not easy to hold her like this all the time.
"Oh, little aunt, I miss my mother, I miss my mother so much"
Just as Jiang Yutang moved, the little girl in her arms became restless again, rubbing against her neck and muttering softly, her voice sounding muffled.
Jiang Yutang was startled when he heard that, feeling sad and sore, the child was missing his mother, Jiang Yutang took her back into his arms with pity, and stroked her back.
well!On such an important day, how could she miss her mother? At her age, she was still talking about her mother, let alone such a young child.After hearing many stories about the Cheng family's past today, Jiang Yutang sighed in his heart how difficult it was for the grandparents and grandsons of the Cheng family, and once again thought about not recognizing the little girl as a daughter.
"I want mommy, mommy..."
The little girl suddenly started to struggle, whining and crying for her mother, which made Jiang Yutang momentarily at a loss. Shen Nian was too obedient when she was a child, she never used her to coax her. She is really inexperienced and doesn't know how to coax children.
Seeing the little girl with her eyes closed, muttering about wanting her mother, tears slowly rolling down, Jiang Yutang hated this scene the most, felt pity, and felt distressed.I thought, there is nothing else to do!Try coaxing it.
"Be good, don't cry, mom is here, look, mom is here!" Jiang Yutang hypnotized herself, softly coaxing the little girl in her arms.Anyway, it's not a loss for the little girl to call her mother, and it's not a loss for her.Think of it as an early call, anyway, she also intends to recognize this goddaughter.
Cheng Qinglan was so drunk, as if she heard someone talking in her ear, she let out her emotions and cried, "Mom, I miss you so much, Mom..."
Seeing her like this, Jiang Yutang's heart was so soft that she couldn't bear to let her go. The little girl who was still smiling during the day showed her true feelings when she was drunk. She thought to herself, cry, it's good if you can cry.Jiang Yutang patted the little girl's back with her hands to calm her down.
He continued, "Good boy, mom is here."
Xu's embrace was too warm, Cheng Qinglan thought that she really hugged her mother in her dream, and hugged Jiang Yutang's neck tightly with both hands.
Jiang Yutang was taken aback by her embrace, then softened her body, trying to make the little girl as comfortable as possible.I thought to myself, it feels pretty good, the little arms are tightly hugged, the body is fragrant and soft, and it feels good to hold it. Jiang Yutang is feeling beautiful in her heart, so she heard the little girl in her arms say:
"No, you're not my mother! No, that's not what my mother called me..."
Jiang Yutang was startled, wondering if she was drunk or not, and she could tell if it wasn't her mother.The point is, I don't know what your mother called you?well!It's hard to coax a child, but it's even harder to coax a drunk child
Thinking this way in my heart, I continued coaxing, "Then why did mother call you before?"
The little girl in her arms closed her eyes, choked up, rubbed her neck and said, "Mom, mom called me baby"
have to!This is also a little custom-made, and he can still talk when he is drunk, this kid is also a god.Jiang Yutang resigned to her fate, and it was not easy to recognize a goddaughter.What can we do? Let's cooperate!Just take it as a practice in advance, and I will always coax the little girl to call her mother in the future.
"Baby is good, mom is here." Jiang Yutang tried her best to be a robot to coax the children, doing her duty.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,She kept soothing her softly, "Good baby, good baby, mom is here, don't cry."
Shen Nian came back from the bathroom after drying her hair, pushed open the door and saw her mother was holding someone in her arms, and was stunned at the door.
Jiang Yutang explained to Shen Nian in a low voice, "The little girl was drunk and came to our room, she might have regarded me as her little aunt. She's been crying for her mother all the time, what a poor little girl, alas!"
"Come on, mom, go take a shower." Shen Nian understood what was going on, and walked to the bed very calmly.
Jiang Yutang was a little surprised, when did her own daughter become so humane, and she even asked for someone to take care of her, but when she thought about it, everyone had cut the umbilical cord for the little girl, so what would she do if she coaxed her.
Thinking of cutting the umbilical cord, Jiang Yutang wanted to laugh, and told her husband when she got home that your daughter had cut the umbilical cord when she was young, haha, it's interesting to think about it.Jiang Yutang was so imaginative that she almost burst into laughter, but she carefully handed over the little girl in her arms to Shen Nian, fearing that the little girl would be difficult to coax if she continued to make trouble.
With a calm expression, Shen Nian took Cheng Qinglan and hugged her in her arms, signaling to her mother to take a bath quickly.
Jiang Yutang took her clothes and left, and the room became quiet again.
Shen Nian slightly lowered his head to look at the little girl in his arms, his cheeks were a little red, tears were still hanging on his long eyelashes, he slept peacefully in her arms.The last time I hugged her like this was ten years ago, I never thought I could see her so closely again.
Today, I participated in her school entrance banquet and witnessed her coming-of-age ceremony.In the future, they should not have any more intersections, and in fact, there is no regret about it.Seeing that she was growing up well and living happily, Shen Nian was very relieved and felt that this time was not in vain.
The little girl in my memory has grown up, her eyebrows and eyes are opened, she is more delicate and beautiful, her eyes are closed, her long hair looks like a doll, very much like the pencil case her father bought for her when she was a child, there is a small one on the lid Twinkle doll that automatically closes its eyes.
The girl in "Mom" said "Mom" again, and rubbed Shen Nian's neck with her clean forehead.Shen Nian didn't make a sound, hugged her tightly with one hand, and imitated her mother's movement just now, patting her on the back lightly.
She could smell the fragrance of the shower gel emanating from the girl's body, mixed with a faint smell of alcohol. Make her happy.
After taking a shower downstairs, Qin Yi was called by his mother to have a conversation, and this delay made him come back a bit late.
When she came back, she saw that the door of the room was open, and she looked around for no one in the room, and the door of the bathroom was also open, but there was no one in it.
Qin Yi wondered where he was going. It was so late, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried.Called Maomao several times in the room, but no one answered.He didn't take his mobile phone by the bed, thinking whether he would go to talk to her teacher, but he was still worried. Qin Yi first found Wu Zheng's room, knocked on the door and asked, but no one came.He went to another room to ask, and soon found Shen Nian's mother and daughter's room.
When Shen Nian heard the knock on the door, she softly said "Please come in". She already guessed who it was.
Sure enough, it was Qin Yi who came to find him.
Qin Yi pushed open the door, saw the little niece half-held in Shen Nian's arms, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was going on.
"She's drunk, she must have touched the wrong door when she came out to look for you." Shen Nian looked at Qin Yi, it was useless for her to ask, so she took the initiative to tell her.
She knew that Cheng Qinglan was very close to the little aunt in front of her and depended on her very much.Qin Yi couldn't come to look for him anymore, Shen Nian also planned to send him back.
"Oh, excuse me, I'll take her back to the room." Qin Yi guessed the same, the two rooms are closest to each other, so it's normal to be confused and touch the wrong one.As he said that, he was about to come and hug Cheng Qinglan.
"Let me do it." Shen Nian didn't let her hug her, adjusted the posture of the little girl in her arms, and easily hugged her in her arms, which was lighter than she expected.
Qin Yi stared blankly, thinking that this girl looks very thin, but she has a lot of strength.Nodding slightly, he turned around and opened the door for them to come out, and walked ahead to lead the way.
Shen Nian followed her to the room, carefully put Cheng Qinglan back on the bed, covered her with the quilt, and slept so deeply that she didn't wake up.
Shen Nian glanced at her again, then turned around and walked towards the door. Qin Yi followed her and sent her outside.
"I'll go back and get the medicine. If she wakes up at night, let her take it, otherwise she will have a headache when she wakes up tomorrow." Standing at the door, Shen Nian said to Qin Yi calmly.The voice is soft, less cold and alienated during the day.
Qin Yi looked at the young girl in front of her. Today, my aunt only talked about the intersection with Mao Mao when she was born, and didn't mention the funeral ten years ago.Qin Yi remembered very clearly that the girl in front of him was also there ten years ago, and she was taking care of Mao Mao.It can be seen that her attitude towards Mao Mao is different from that of ordinary people.
