play house

The soft and fragrant milk smell wafted out of the microwave, and Chu Lingze brought the cup to Chu Xian in a desperate manner, and after thinking about it, he simply slipped into Chu Xian's arms,

"Daddy, why don't we go see grandma tomorrow?"

"Aren't you terrified of going to a nursing home?"

"But last time I made an appointment with my grandma. I will visit her at least once a month. If I don't go to Ozawa, I will release my grandma's pigeons."

Chu Lingze leaned back against Chu Xian, said softly,

"Grandma must miss daddy too. Ozawa likes grandma, but doesn't like grandpa. If grandpa doesn't go to see grandma, then Ozawa will go to accompany grandma."

Hearing the sound, Chu Xian tapped Chu Lingze's little head, and said with a light smile,

"I don't like your grandpa either."

"Grandpa is too scary!"

Chu Lingze pouted, "Did Daddy agree to go to grandma's place tomorrow?"

"Use my mobile phone to order a bouquet of flowers and bring them with you when you visit your grandma tomorrow."

Chu Xian unlocked the phone and handed it to Chu Lingze. Chu Lingze's grandmother Chen Rushuang, who is also Chu Xian's mother, is currently living alone in the nursing home in Oxygen Villa. It's not that Chu Xian doesn't want to take her to live with her, it's just that many Years ago, Chen Rushuang had been in a bad mental state due to an accident, and had no way to return to a normal life.

Chu Xian's father was rigid and strict, and could not accept a wife who was suffering from a mental illness. Divorcing Chen Rushuang was the best of humanity, so naturally there was no need to expect him to accompany and take care of her.

"But there are many flower shops in front of the nursing home? Why do you need to book in advance?"

"Your grandma likes golden sunflowers, and most flower shops don't have them in stock."

"Oh! I remembered, grandma still likes ping pong chrysanthemum!"

Chu Xian smiled. He came back with Chu Lingze after disappearing from the world for a period of time. The whole family was full of hostility and contempt for this unidentified child who was picked up. Only his mother treated Chu Lingze like a relative. As kind and gentle as his grandson, Chu Lingze has always been like a mirror in his heart. Chen Rushuang treats him well, so he also likes Chen Rushuang.

"Remark to the merchant to choose a few plants with good quality, your grandma can choose."

Chu Xian warned that his mother was considered a noble lady before the accident that year, and Chu Xian's picky personality is mostly inherited from her.

"no problem!"

Chu Lingze picked up Chu Xian's mobile phone carefully, and the next day, she received a particularly fresh and beautiful bouquet.

When he bouncing into Chen Rushuang's apartment with a bouquet of golden flowers in his hands, the old lady had just woken up and was picking on the custom-made breakfast brought by the nurse.

"How can the elderly eat such sticky things? It's hard to digest! And who in the world thought of wrapping shrimp in rice dumplings? He should go to jail."

The nurse stood aside with her head bowed in embarrassment, listening to her complaints with a good temper, and explained in a low voice,

"These zongzi were made by the children who came to volunteer a few days ago. It's also a good intention... The uncle Li next door said it was delicious, so I thought I would cook two for you to try."

"Oh, old Li's iron stomach can compare with mine?"

Chen Rushuang clicked his tongue twice, and turned his head to notice Chu Xian and his son, "Xian Zhi, you come to judge, I didn't wrong them, did I?"

"Who said you are an old man, you don't have a single white hair, and it has nothing to do with the word 'old'."

Chu Xian's complexion was soft and his tone was gentle. He signaled the nurse to go out first, and sat down himself to coax Chen Rushuang to have breakfast.

"Grandma, grandma, Ozawa likes to eat shrimp. If you don't like it, you can give it to Ozawa! The teacher said that food should not be wasted."

After Chu Lingze put the bouquet on the window sill sensiblely, she cated to Chen Rushuang like a little rabbit, and kissed her with a bright smile.

"Hey, darling, let grandma see if you've grown taller again?"

Chen Rushuang picked up Chu Lingze, "The prawns in the rice are not tasty, but the sesame paste is pretty good. Grandma will give you a bite."

"Yeah."

Chu Lingze opened his mouth wide with a whimper, and Chu Xian looked at the two of them enjoying themselves happily, with a rare relaxed smile on his face, but this smile suddenly disappeared when he saw the picture in the frame on the window sill next to him. And stop.

The photo shows a young Chen Rushuang and Chu Xian who is still wearing a high school uniform, but Chen Rushuang is holding a little girl who looks like five or six years old in the other hand.

The girl was wearing a light yellow pettiskirt, her eyebrows and eyes were very clear, she looked like a little beauty.

With a "snap", Chu Xian buckled down the photo frame calmly, but the sound of the collision between the wooden photo frame and the marble window sill was not too small. Chen Rushuang and Chu Lingze, who were dividing up the pumpkin pie, raised their heads together.

"Limited, what's wrong?"

Chen Rushuang glanced at Chu Xian, then at the photo in his hand that had been turned upside down, and suddenly smiled,

"By the way, haven't we, Ozawa, met Yiyi? This is your sister-in-law."

"mom……"

Chen Rushuang pushed away Chu Xian's hand, grabbed the photo frame stubbornly and handed it to Chu Lingze,

"Yiyi, Yiyi has a good personality, so she must be very kind to you, right? You just said that you like shrimp, right? Yiyi also likes to eat shrimp. Has she ever taken you to eat shrimp?"

"me,"

Chu Lingze was a little at a loss. Parents said that when grandma chanted "Yiyi", her mental state was unstable. Facing Chen Rushuang's kind and paranoid questioning, Chu Lingze faltered,

"I haven't seen... Sister Yiyi."

"how could be?"

Chen Rushuang raised her head and blinked in distress. She looked at the bewildered Chu Lingze, and the memories that had been deliberately dusted up were awakened one by one.

"Yiyi... Yiyi is dead, I remembered, my Yiyi is dead, she will never grow up again..."

Chen Rushuang suddenly widened her eyes in pain, grabbed Chu Lingze's shoulders and said sharply,

"My Yiyi was the same age as you when he died... No, you are Yiyi, right? You are reluctant to part with your mother, right? You died so badly! Blood flowed all over the floor, you were alive, alive..."

"mom!"

Chu Xian grabbed Chen Rushuang's wrist, "Stop thinking about Yiyi, the person in front of you is Ozawa."

"No...no, my Yiyi..."

Chen Rushuang was overwhelmed by the complicated emotions in Chu Xian's eyes, like fireworks dancing in the cold iceberg, resolute but pitiful.

Yes, poor, her children are so poor...

Chen Rushuang let go of Chu Lingze, and sat down on the soft chair as if her soul had been emptied. The doctors and nurses who were called by the emergency bell also rushed over, and Chu Xian and Chu Lingze were politely invited out immediately. Room.

"Daddy... will grandma be okay?"

Chu Lingze grasped Chu Xian's trouser legs tightly. It seemed that he was quite frightened, but Chu Xian was already used to it. He patted Chu Lingze's head,

"Don't worry, grandma just misses you, Auntie Yiyi."

"Don't daddy want to?"

Although Chu Lingze has never seen this little sister Yiyi, she will never forget that one day every year, Chu Xian will take him to the cemetery to put a bouquet of white chrysanthemums. girl.

"think,"

Chu Xian sighed, "But it's useless."

Chu Yi is his biological sister, even if he only lived to be five years old, she is still Chu Xian's biological sister whose blood is thicker than water.

"Ozawa doesn't understand."

Chu Lingze shook his head, "Grandma said Aunt Yiyi was the same age as Ozawa when she passed away, how old were dad and me at that time?"

"17 is old."

Chu Xian blurted out.

At the age of 17, a sophomore in high school, he was far less calm and steady than he is now, but he lost his sister, mother, and Shen Yichi almost at the same time at that age when he was supposed to be the most lively.

"Daddy is so strong."

Chu Lingze gave Chu Xian a big hug, "Go home, Ozawa will beat Daddy's back!"

"Don't break Daddy's waist."

"Ozawa will pay attention!"

Chu Lingze swears, but he couldn't help falling asleep on the sofa as soon as he got home, and it was dark when he woke up.

"Your little stomach has been growling for a long time before you wake up from starvation."

Chu Xian sat aside and looked at Chu Lingze with a big smile on his face, "I made you a bowl of green onion noodles, try it, it must be better than Shen Yichi's."

"Okay, Ozawa believes that Daddy is the best..."

Chu Lingze sat up and looked at the bowl of sour, dark onion noodles on the coffee table, with scallions as long as little fingers, and his brain froze for a moment.

At that moment, he missed Shen Yichi very much.

"Ah chirp-"

Shen Yichi, who had just bought shampoo from the convenience store and was waiting for the elevator downstairs, sneezed. He was in the middle of taking a shower and found that the shampoo at home had run out, so he had to go downstairs with wet hair, and the evening breeze still felt a bit cool.

The weather turned cold, and I don't know if Chu Xian's fever has recovered.

Shen Yi was thinking wildly, when the elevator approached the first floor, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him,

"Yichi,"

A familiar but disgusting voice sounded, Shen Yichi frowned, turned his head coldly, and saw a middle-aged man wearing a jacket, shaved his head, and his eyebrows were a little white, walking towards him with a hypocritical smile,

"Why haven't you contacted your family recently? I heard that you got a bonus this month. Why don't you tell your father about such a good thing, so that your father will be happy too?"

This man is none other than Shen Yichi's father, Shen Su.

"I wired you money last week."

Shen Yichi turned his head away not wanting to look at him again, but Shen Su said slowly,

"But you have a bonus, how can it still be the same as last month? Your brother is discussing marriage with his girlfriend, and your mother, she..."

"That woman is not my mother."

Shen Yichi turned around, he was so imposing, even Shen Su was inevitably pressed by him and had to take two steps back, but Shen Su was his father after all, and soon he grinned and said,

"How could it not be your mother? Look at what you said, like a child who hasn't grown up yet."

"My mother fell to her death from the 22nd floor a long time ago. That woman can only be called your mistress."

Shen Yichi and Shen Su had already broken faces, and the father and son were not polite when speaking.

"Shen Yichi, don't think that your wings are hard. If it wasn't for you, would your mother have jumped off the building? If your mother hadn't jumped off the building, would she have killed the young daughter of the Chu family? Do you know that you have two lives on your back? Do you know? If I hadn’t protected you, you would have been in trouble long ago!”

Shen Su sneered harshly, Shen Yichi's facial features follow him, although his face is covered with years of pain, but he is still handsome, but this face has never been used in a proper way, and he has never vomited to Shen Yichi. Words that don't hurt.

"My mother didn't jump off the building by herself, she was pushed down by you!"

Shen Yichi pushed Shen Su against the wall, like a trapped beast, powerful but helpless.

A moment of shock flashed across Shen Su's face, but it immediately turned into a mocking laugh,

"But you have no evidence. Even the police said she committed suicide, and everyone firmly believes that your mother jumped off the building because of your anger."

"Shen Su, are you really not afraid that I will kill you?"

"Afraid,"

Shen Su smiled distortedly, "So before I came to you, I told you...the stepmother, as long as you are disobedient, she will immediately report to Viana's President Chu what happened back then. You said that the famous Boss Chu If he found out that you were the culprit who indirectly killed his own sister, would he let you go?"

"What do you want?"

Shen Yichi exerted force with his hands, pinching Shen Su's face to turn blue,

"[-]...cough cough cough, remit to my card before tomorrow...!"

Shen Su's eyes turned white after being pinched, Shen Yichi finally let go of his hand, and pushed him out as if he thought it was dirty.

"Don't let me see you again."

"Ha ha, alright,"

Shen Su fell to the ground panting heavily,

"As long as you don't forget to send money. If you dare to be late next month, I'm afraid it's not me who comes to you, but Boss Chu who wants to avenge my sister!"

After the harsh words, Shen Su clutched his neck and left cursingly. He thought that what Shen Yichi was afraid of was Chu Xian's revenge, and that he had completely grasped Shen Yichi's handle.

He will never know that Shen Yichi is not afraid of being retaliated at all, the only thing he fears is being hated by Chu Xian.

Whether it is 17 years old, or now.
