Chapter 777 Ou Luoxi Officially Took over Qingmen
Xiao Xuyan's eyes quickly turned red, and she held Xia Xiaofu's hand in grievance, "Mommy, why doesn't grandma come back? I will miss grandma."
Xia Xiaofu kissed Xiao Xuyan's cheek, "Xiao Xuyan, grandma went out to travel. It was very hard for grandma to take care of Xiao Xuyan during this period, so grandma went to a place with mountains and rivers to relax alone. When our Xiao Xuyan grows up and can honor grandma, grandma will come back then."
"Oh, okay," Xiao Xuyan nodded reluctantly, "But mommy, what should I do if I miss grandma? ? "
"If Xiao Xuyan misses grandma, come here to see her. If you have anything to say or any gifts you have prepared for her, send them here and she will know."
Xiao Xuyan burst into laughter quickly. She walked to the tombstone and kissed the photo of Xia's mother. She said in a baby voice, "Grandma, you must be happy when you travel outside. I will also listen to my mother. I will grow up soon and bring grandma back when the time comes."
Xia Xiaofu stood up. She looked at the two tombstones and whispered in her heart, Dad, Mom, rest in peace.
"Xiao Xuyan, it's raining heavily, let's go home." Xia Xiaofu took Xiao Xuyan's hand.
"Yes." Xiao Xuyan nodded.
The two walked forward, and after taking a step, the umbrella in Xia Xiaofu's right hand was blown away by a gust of autumn wind.
Her right wrist was injured and she couldn't use force, so she could only watch the umbrella being blown far away.
The raindrops were cold and big now, and they immediately hit the two of them. Xia Xiaofu stepped away to pick up the umbrella.
At this time, Ou Luoxi was standing in a remote corner. He was wearing a black suit and holding a black umbrella in his hand, looking at the mother and daughter. Seeing them bathing in the rain, he was anxious and wanted to run over.
But at this time, a handsome figure appeared, and a black umbrella was held over the heads of Xia Xiaofu and Xiao Xuyan.
Xia Xiaofu looked up and smiled quickly, "Senior, why are you here?"
It was Chen Jingyu.
Chen Jingyu looked at Xia Xiaofu's increasingly small and delicate face and smiled gently, "I have been working in other places for the past two months. As soon as I came back, I heard about you. I came to see my aunt off."
Chen Jingyu handed a white flower in his hand to the tombstone and bowed.
"Senior, thank you for coming."
"Xiao Fu, birth, aging, illness and death are the norm in the world. I believe that as long as you and Xiao Xuyan can live happily and happily, your aunt will be relieved."
"Yes," Xia Xiaofu nodded, "I understand."
Chen Jingyu lowered his eyes and looked at Xiao Xuyan, "Xiao Xuyan, it's raining heavily, there is water on the ground, and your crystal shoes will be wet. I wonder if uncle has the honor to hug our little princess?"
Xiao Xuyan glanced at Xia Xiaofu, then opened her little hands to Chen Jingyu, "Thank you uncle."
Chen Jingyu bent down and hugged Xiao Xuyan in his arms. He held Xiao Xuyan steadily with one arm and held an umbrella with the other hand, "Xiao Fu, let's go back."
"Yes." The three left the cemetery together.
Ou Luoxi looked at the three people who were walking away. Chen Jingyu whispered something. Xia Xiaofu smiled lightly. Xiao Xuyan nestled in his arms. The backs of the three people were so harmonious and beautiful, just like a family...
Ou Luoxi's umbrella fell to the ground weakly. The cold rain soaked his head and feet.
…
Xia Xiaofu recuperated in the hospital for a whole month. Her health was getting better. Xiao Xuyan stayed with her mother all day. Chen Jingyu also came every day.
Ou Luoxi could see the scene inside by standing by the small window. The sunlight outside poured into the ward through the window. The room was warm. Xia Xiaofu was sitting on the bed. Chen Jingyu was peeling an apple with a fruit knife. Xiao Xuyan was holding a comic book and asked Chen Jingyu in confusion---
"Uncle, this electric pole is in the rain. It's so pitiful. Will it cry?"
"Xiao Xuyan, electric poles won't cry. It's not a human being, but a thing built by humans with soil and sand. Things have no emotions and no tear glands."
"Tear gland?"
"Yes, there is a tear gland under the human eye. When we are stimulated reflexively or emotionally, the tear gland produces fluid and we cry."
"Then why do we cry?"
"Because we have emotions, just like..." Chen Jingyu handed a small piece of apple to Xia Xiaofu's mouth, "Uncle will smile when he sees your mommy."
Xia Xiaofu didn't ask him to feed her. She took the bamboo stick and took a small bite of the apple, "Xiao Xuyan, don't keep pestering uncle, uncle is very busy at work."
Xia Xiaofu looked at Chen Jingyu, "Senior, you can't spoil her too much, otherwise she will be very attached to you in the future."
Chen Jingyu put the apple pieces on the fruit plate, then bent down to pick up Xiao Xuyan. He held her and turned her around on the plateau for several circles, "Uncle and Xiao Xuyan are good friends. If Xiao Xuyan likes uncle, just come and stick to uncle."
It was the first time that Xiao Xuyan flew so high. She opened her little hands and clapped twice in the air, "Oh, flying, flying..."
Xia Xiaofu looked at them and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
…
A month later, Xia Xiaofu was discharged from the hospital. Chen Jingyu carried her bag in one hand and held Xiao Xuyan's hand with the other. "Xiaofu, the discharge procedures have been completed. We can go home."
"Yes, OK." Xia Xiaofu nodded.
After leaving the hospital lobby, Chen Jingyu carried Xiao Xuyan into the back seat of the Land Rover. He looked back and saw Xia Xiaofu was left behind alone. She was looking back at the hospital behind her.
Chen Jingyu stood up and called softly, "Xiao Fu..."
Xia Xiaofu turned around and saw Chen Jingyu smiling at her gently. She also slowly raised the corners of her lips.
The Land Rover started to move. Xiao Xuyan was lying on her mother's lap and had fallen asleep. Xia Xiaofu lowered her eyes and stroked her soft black hair. Chen Jingyu looked back through the rearview mirror and then said, "Xiao Fu, I heard that the fourth uncle officially retired a week ago. Qingmen was officially taken over by Ou Luoxi. He became the thirteenth generation head of Qingmen."
Xia Xiaofu's hand paused, and then returned to normal, "Yeah." She snorted.
"Xiao Fu, I saw Ou Luoxi in the hospital. He has been standing outside the door and didn't come in..."
Xia Xiaofu didn't speak.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk more about this topic, Chen Jingyu also remained silent. He sent the mother and daughter home.
...
Xia Xiaofu still lives in the old apartment. Now that her mother is gone, there are only two people left in the apartment, which makes it a lot quieter. Fortunately, Xiao Xuyan likes to chatter behind her mother, adding a lot of joy and warmth to this quiet apartment.
On this day, Xia Xiaofu took Xiao Xuyan to the playground. She hadn't taken Xiao Xuyan out for a long time, so Chen Jingyu acted as the driver.
