In the afternoon, before Aunt Thirteen got off work and took Guoguo home, Yang Fan had already arrived home.
Although there are children at home, Aunt Thirteen still keeps the house tidy and clean.
Unlike some women, who dress neatly and look glamorous on the outside, but actually have a messy and disheveled home.
When Yang Fan returned home, Dasheng and Gungun were very happy. They kept asking for hugs and their tails were wagging like high-power windshield wipers.
Even Sanbao, who was usually rather aloof, ran over and hugged his calves, reluctant to leave.
Although spring has arrived, Aunt Thirteen doesn't have enough free time to take the three treasures out for a stroll every day.
Yang Fan did, at least the three treasures thought so.
So it is necessary to please him.
After checking the refrigerator and finding no food, Yang Fan went downstairs and bought a few bags of food from the community supermarket.
After cooking the rice and preparing the dishes, Yang Fan looked at the time and did not stay in the kitchen any longer. He went out to the balcony.
He will come back when the two pots of flowers on the balcony that he told Guoguo about bloom.
But now what he saw were two pots of dying flowers.
Guoguo, who was scalded when watering the flowers with hot water, did not take the initiative to tell Aunt Thirteen and Yang Fan.
Yang Fan and Aunt Thirteen didn't think in this direction, so this matter became an eternal mystery.
Even as time goes by, Guoguo will forget.
Yang Fan took out the flowers he bought on the way back today and took out two of them.
On Goddess Day, he was not in the mountain city and was unable to celebrate the festival with Aunt Thirteen.
Now that I’m back, I can only buy a bouquet of flowers as compensation.
After digging out the dying flower in the pot, Yang Fan put the two blooming flowers in his hand into the pot and watered them.
When Guoguo comes back and sees it, she will definitely be very happy and say that her brother did not lie to her.
When the flowers bloomed, he came back.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, Yang Fan, who was sitting on the balcony with Monkey King, watching the warm spring river and listening to the sound of wind and smoke in the city, heard the sound of the door opening.
After Guoguo was scalded by water, he didn't go to kindergarten for three days and was taken to the nursery at his workplace by Aunt Thirteen.
Even if the little girl goes to kindergarten as usual, before getting off work, Aunt Thirteen will ask the driver and assistant to pick her up to the office and then go home together.
The kindergarten’s school dismissal time is earlier than Aunt Thirteen’s get off work from nine to five.
"Mom, when will my brother come back?" The door opened and Guoguo's voice came.
"Soon, maybe tomorrow." Aunt Thirteen's voice came.
Today she was wearing a white long-sleeved T-shirt, a light yellow thin jacket, a baseball cap, and loose casual pants.
She is fashionable but not frivolous, pretty but not seductive.
Some women are good-looking, but they look a little coquettish and seductive, which good guys don’t like very much, like a bad woman.
Thirteenth Aunt is probably still in the public eye. She is dignified and has the temperament of a noble lady. She can be admired from afar but not touched.
Even with loose casual pants, you can still see that her legs are very long, the kind of long legs that countless girls dream of.
When Yang Fan heard Shisan's voice, his mind involuntarily flashed back to a scene he had seen during the investigation.
The two snow-capped peaks were full and round, and the scenery on the top of the mountain was so tempting that he couldn't help but linger.
On the top of the mountain, you can see the girl Pink, who is the dream of countless men.
"Why doesn't my brother come home?" At the door, Guoguo, with gauze still tied on his hands, was carrying a small schoolbag.
There's actually nothing in the backpack, but she just likes to carry it.
It’s like carrying an entire childhood on my back.
In childhood, there is nothing, yet there is everything.
"He has a daughter outside, so he doesn't like you and doesn't want to go home." Aunt Thirteen said to her daughter.
Yang Fan, who wanted to step into the inner room from the balcony, stopped speechlessly.
"Is that so? Is my brother's daughter as pretty and cute as me?" Guoguo asked her mother while changing her shoes.
She was not worried that her brother would no longer want her. In order to make her brother love only her, she was willing to give up the idea of burying herself in the snow.
Otherwise, when I went to the north to visit my great-grandmother during the Chinese New Year, she would have buried herself long ago. Now that spring is here, she should be able to grow many more of herself.
"I don't know. I haven't seen him." Aunt Thirteen was also changing her shoes: "When he comes back, you can ask him. Ask him if he still wants you, and if he still wants his mother."
"Well, I'll wait for my brother to come back and ask him when we go to bed at night." Guoguo said.
"What do you want to ask?" Aunt Thirteen asked the little girl.
"Ask him if he still wants me," the little girl replied.
"What about me?" asked Aunt Thirteen.
"Just ask yourself." Guoguo said as a matter of course.
"Please ask for mom." Aunt Thirteen said.
"Okay, I'll ask your brother for you and ask him to agree that you can sleep with him, and then we can sleep together." Guoguo said.
"I don't want it. I'll sleep alone." Aunt Thirteen changed her shoes and went into the house. After she was about to put down her bag, she found a bouquet of flowers on the coffee table.
A hint of surprise flashed across her face, and she quickly ran to Yang Fan's territory, and saw a pair of shoes at his door that she hadn't seen for more than ten days.
The slippers that had been lying there for more than ten days without moving were gone.
Turning around, she saw Yang Fan walking towards her with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
Guoguo had already shouted "Brother", dropped his schoolbag and rushed towards him.
Yang Fan held the flowers in one hand and picked up the little girl with the other.
After not seeing her for more than ten days, she seemed to have grown taller and looked more lively.
After entering Yang Fan's arms, the little girl wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and rubbed her cheeks and ears continuously.
Aunt Thirteen's eyes were moist.
I can't sleep well when he's not at home.
His daughter couldn't live without him, and she seemed to be unable to live without him either.
He was like a sky, accommodating all the shortcomings, willfulness and unreasonableness of her and her daughter.
Yang Fan handed the flowers to Aunt Thirteen with a smile. He said that he would spend Goddess Day with her again after he came back, and this was just the beginning.
In her mind, she had replayed countless times “Why did you come back just now?”, “You finally knew to come back?”, “Why did you come back?” Now, Aunt Thirteen couldn’t say a word and only felt happy in her heart.
The world becomes complete and life becomes more promising.
After taking a look at Guoguo's gauze-wrapped hand, Yang Fan pulled Aunt Thirteen, who was usually dignified and elegant but now looked no different from a young wife, over and hugged her in his arms.
"When I was little, adults told me, 'Child, don't be a so-called hero.' Those were just words of encouragement, really just words of encouragement. Now I want to tell them that I can be a superhero to my parents, because they have protected me from the wind and rain. I can be a hero to my children, because I may be their role model in the future. I don't have to be a superhero who saves the world. I just need to do what I can, accompany them as they grow up, and not miss any of their growth stages. So, it's nice to meet you."
Thirteenth Aunt didn't know whether Yang Fan was talking to her or to Guoguo.
But no matter who she told it to, she was very happy and felt the meaning of her life.
