C421 She Would Sweep the Grave and Meet the Old Woman
Xiaobao puffed up his cheeks and tilted his face awkwardly. "Oh, welcome back. "
"Yo, you're so cold. You wasted my time working these days just to squeeze a few more days to accompany you. " Baili Yun's tone was lonely and desolate. He was like a resentful woman who was despised by others.
Xiaobao could not help but turn his head to look at him. At such a close distance, he found that his eyelids were slightly green and his eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that he had not slept well for a long time.
Xiaobao had a very complicated feeling in his heart. When he wasn't around, he would miss him, but when he really appeared in front of him, he felt helpless and didn't know how to face it.
In short, Xiaobao accepted the fact that Baili Yun was his father, but he wasn't used to being with him.
His little eyes sparkled, his lips moved, and he said dryly, "You, don't work so hard in the future. "
Because of his seemingly caring words, Baili Yun was overjoyed and carried him up with a beaming smile. "Son, I will take it that you are concerned about me, hahaha. . . "
Xiaobao's pink little ears turned slightly red.
While the father and son were communicating, Yi had already held Xiaoguai's hand and quietly retreated into the car.
"Son, when I was not around, did you miss me?" Baili Yun placed Xiaobao in the Rolls Royce and sat beside him. He said with a smile, "I miss you very much. "
Xiaobao said in a muffled voice, "It's alright. I don't really want to. "
Baili Yun acted like he was holding his son's hand and said with melancholy, "Son, you hurt my heart too much. "
Xiaobao seemed to have gotten used to having such a thick-skinned father. He actually did not feel ashamed anymore. Instead, he felt a little happy. Baili Yun could stay in the country for three days this time. He planned to take Xiaobao out to play during the Qingming vacation to improve the relationship between father and son.
On the day of the Qingming Festival, Xia Dong and Baili Han brought Yi and Xiaoguai to their mother's grave to sweep.
As if to contrast this festival, the sky was drizzling. The rain was very small and did not need umbrellas. When it touched people's bodies, it would at most be a little moist.
Yi and Xiaoguai both carried a bouquet of lily flowers in their arms. The family of four walked on the shady road.
There were many people who were like them, sweeping graves. They were in twos and threes, their expressions solemn and sad.
Xia Dong did not expect to meet Su Yunqian's parents here.
Su Bolin held Mrs. Su's waist and the two of them walked together. Their expressions were sad and Mrs. Su's eyes were still red.
"Uncle, Auntie. " Baili Han greeted politely.
Su Bolin and his wife were stunned for a moment, then they nodded. "You also came to sweep the tomb?"
Baili Han turned his head to look at Xia Dong. "We are here to see our mother-in-law. "
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Ever since Su Yunqian's matter was exposed, the two families had completely fallen out. It had been a long time since they had interacted.
Su Bolin coughed and said, "Then you guys should hurry up and go. Don't delay any longer. "
Baili Han nodded politely.
The four of them were about to leave when Su Bolin's lips tensed up. He suddenly said, "Han. . . "
Baili Han turned around. "Uncle, is there something else?"
A guilty look appeared in Su Bolin's eyes. After hesitating for a while, he slowly said, "I never had the chance to apologize to you and Xia Dong. Today, I want to apologize to you on behalf of Yunqian. I also do not hope that you can forgive her. I just hope that you do not hate her. "
Baili Han said faintly, "Uncle, what happened in the past will pass. Don't mention it again. "
Hating a person was actually a very difficult thing. Because of hatred, he had always remembered the reason for his hatred. He remembered how others hurt him. Every time he recalled it, it would be his own Ling Chi.
In front of Xia Ling's tombstone, there were flowers that the children had gifted her.0
Xia Dong went forward and squatted in front of the tomb. Staring at the small picture on the tombstone, she gently said, "Mother, Xiaoguai's illness has been cured. Han and I have added another little grandson to you. Are you happy?"
"Mom, Han is very good to me. We have a very happy life. You can rest assured that you are in the sky. . . "
Every time Xia Dong came to visit her mother, her heart would not feel good. She felt that it was not worth it for her mother. She felt very regretful that her mother did not have a good day.
Her nose was sour and her eyes were moist.
Baili Han helped her up from the ground and looked at Xia Ling's photo. His expression was serious and solemn, "Mom, don't worry. I will take good care of Xia and the children. "
They were reminiscing about Xia Ling. They did not know that behind the tombstone behind them, there was a thin and weak figure hiding. All the words they said fell into her ears. Her thin shoulders trembled slightly as if she was suppressing something.
"Wife, let's go. " Baili Han held Xia Dong's waist and called the two children to follow.
The figure could not help but stand up. His gaze passed the tombstone and greedily wanted to look at them a few more times.
However, she had squatted for too long, and her legs were already numb. In addition, her right leg was not agile to begin with. As her body leaned forward, she staggered a little and crashed into the disk in front of the tombstone where the fruit was placed. The disk was knocked over with a bang, and the apple inside rolled out.
"Eh, there seems to be a sound. . . "
Xiaoguai and Yi held hands as they walked behind. Their little ears were sharp and suddenly stopped and looked around. However, they did not find anything because the figure quickly hid behind the tombstone.
An apple rolled to her feet.
Xiaoguai stared at the red and big apple by her feet and shouted loudly, "Mommy, there is an apple! So strange, where did the apple come from?"
"It might be the apple of the sacrifice. Who accidentally dropped it?" Xia Dong also looked around and finally found that there were a few apples scattered in front of the tombstone at the back of the left. She pointed over there and said, "It should have rolled over from there. "
"Then I will send this apple back. " Xiaoguai bent down and picked up the apple and ran towards the tombstone at the back of the left.
The person hiding behind did not have time to dodge and was hit directly by her.
Xiaoguai looked at the figure in surprise and revealed a sweet smile, "Granny, you are here too. "
The old woman could only stand up with her back facing Xia Dong and the others. She said in a low voice, " Yes, Xiaoguai, hurry up and go over. Your daddy and mommy are still waiting for you. "
Xia Dong and Baili Han saw the old woman's back and were a little surprised. Xia Dong asked Yi, "Yi, does Xiaoguai know that old lady?"
Yi recognized the old lady's back and nodded. "She is the old lady we met during the spring trip in the mountain village. "
"I see. Then we have to go and greet her. Thank you for taking care of you. Hubby, what do you say?"
Baili Han had no objections.
