"Anyway, it's enough for grandpa to come. On that day, it's probably not just Qi Kai and the Han family who came over. Also, can grandpa persuade mother to come with her?"
Xi Xiaye did this only in the hope that Shen Wenna would show the toughness that she should have. Now that Deng Wenwen dared to go to her, I am afraid it would not be so easy to let go. She wanted to tell Deng Wenwen and the others with a firm attitude that in this matter , she will never compromise.
"Your mother?"
After Xi Xiaye's words fell, Shen Yue's heart sank, and a wave of vigilance arose immediately, and he looked at Xi Xiaye.
"Um."
Xia Ye sighed, nodded solemnly, and took a sip of tea.
"Let's let this matter go, you know that your mother has never been willing to get involved in these things, alas, your young people's thoughts, grandpa also understands, let her live a peaceful life for a few days, don't disturb her, insist on this It was not easy for her in 2009. If something happened to her again, grandpa would not be able to explain to your dead grandma. "
Shen Yue put down the chess piece in his hand, his face suddenly looked a little sad, and his eyes were quite heavy, "She has a knot in her heart that cannot be solved, and you know the crux, let her forget all the unpleasant things. There's nothing wrong with being simple and comfortable."
"But… "
Xi Xiaye wanted to say something, but Mu Yuchen, who had been silent at the side, had already reached out to stop her, "Okay, Xia Ye, listen to grandpa, grandpa, it's your turn."
This time, Shen Yue calmed down and picked up the chess piece again...
At this time, there was also a sound of footsteps outside, and Mama Xu's voice—
"Miss, have you taken all these things to the kitchen?"
"Well, you wash the vegetables first, and I'll deal with the fish later."
Shen Wenna's voice fell, and her thin figure also came into Xi Xiaye's sight...
After receiving a call from Mu Yuchen this morning, knowing that her daughter and son-in-law were coming back, Shen Wenna went out after a simple breakfast. In addition to buying some delicious dishes, she also prepared some New Year's goods.
In the kitchen, Xi Xiaye was still the same as before, helping Shen Wenna. Seeing that Shen Wenna's face was as cold as before, and there was unspeakable gloom hidden between her brows, she didn't ask Xi Xinyi and the others about their past visits to her.
The atmosphere between mother and daughter was a little stiff, and no one spoke.
After a long time, after making several dishes in a row, Xi Xiaye, who was lowering her head to make the seasoning, finally couldn't help but look up at Shen Wenna who was busy, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "Mother, father asked me to bring you something Come here, there's one more file..."
After saying this, Shen Wenna paused for a moment, then quickly realized, and continued her actions, "What document?"
"I didn't read it. He told me to hand it over to you in person, otherwise he would come to you in person. Yesterday... was the engagement day between Han Yifeng and Xi Xinyi... He came to see me in Shengshi, and I went with him. He didn't know that Xi Xinyi came to look for you Regarding your matter, Amo said that he left City Z after the banquet and came back after a year..."
Xi Xiaye said in a daze, staring at her lightly.
Seeing that her expression was indifferent and still showed no emotion, she thought for a while and continued, "If you are not happy, I will send the things back to him."
"Forget it, take it to my study later."
"Um."
Xi Xiaye responded, and the conversation between mother and daughter ended like this.
A dinner was ready, it was very rich, there were only five people in Shen's house, sitting around a big table, it was obviously much more lively than the deserted one in the past.
Opened a few bottles of champagne, Xi Xiaye also drank several glasses, Shen Yue on the opposite side said this to Mu Yuchen from time to time, from chess to geography, and from geography to astronomy, even Shen Wenna often interjected. After a few words, the few people seemed to be chatting happily.
After the meal was over, Xi Xiaye didn't say a few words, but listened to their chatting, and the man next to him would occasionally pick up food for her bowl, and she would take everything as ordered, so she put down her chopsticks When eating, I unconsciously found that I was a little full, but the man himself didn't eat much.
After dinner, the family sat in the living room drinking some tea and watching TV. Shen Yue only read a piece of news before going back to his room, Xi Xiaye asked Mu Yuchen to go upstairs to wash up, and he himself sent all the things Xi Mushan brought over to Shen Wenna's study.
When she knocked on the door of Shen Wenna's room, Shen Wenna had just finished her bath and was sitting on the sofa in the side hall reading a book with her beautiful long hair loose...
"You don't have to take too much care of me about the past between me and your father. I just hope you can live more calmly than me."
Shen Wenna took the document from Xi Xiaye's hand, looked at Xi Xiaye with calm eyes, and her tone sounded a little gentle.
Xi Xiaye listened, and suddenly raised her eyes to meet her pupils, a trace of struggle flashed in the depths of her star pupils, and the words lingering in her throat finally asked uncontrollably, "Mother, in your heart, is it right? Always... always... thinking about father? Otherwise, you... "
She never took the initiative to ask about the things between Shen Wenna and Xi Mushan, because she knew that these things would always be a thorn in Shen Wenna's heart, as long as she touched it lightly, it would hurt...
Hearing her question, Shen Wenna's eyes also fell silent for an instant, as if the twinkling stars disappeared into the dark clouds in an instant.
After waiting for a long time, but finally still did not get Shen Wenna's answer, Xi Xiaye's heart felt a little suffocated, and after a long silence, she could only get up slowly like many times before when mother and daughter talked to the end—
"It's getting late, you should go to bed early."
After saying this, he walked towards the door.
"There are only so many feelings in my life. I gave them to your father. Now it doesn't matter whether I care about them or not. When you grow up, you don't have to worry about my affairs all the time. You should think about yourself more. After you get married, your life really begins. Xia Ye, mother hopes that you can treat yourself well, so that's good."
Shen Wenna got up from the sofa and walked to the study, "Close the door for me when you go out."
…
Xi Xiaye was in a daze for a moment, then finally nodded and retreated silently.
When she returned to her room, Mu Yuchen had already finished washing, and she was leisurely wearing a nightgown and standing in front of the small bookshelf in the side hall, flipping through a stack of yellowed papers.
Xi Xiaye realized something was wrong, frowned, walked over to have a look—
He was actually flipping through her junior high school exam papers!
Where did it come from
She remembered that she seemed to be stuffed on the top shelf of the bookshelf, but she didn't expect his eyes to be so sharp. Thinking of those poor marks on the test paper, the temperature of her little face suddenly soared, and she rushed up immediately——
"Don't look, I won't let you look!"
