farmer's wife

Chapter 127 Missing
Xiao Lie remembered that a long time ago, when his grandparents were still alive.

Every New Year's Eve when my aunt returns to her mother's house with big bags and small bags, she always watches quietly.

Even though mother was accompanied by father and him, Xiao Lie also felt that sometimes mother was lonely and empty, and she would watch the bright moon in the night from the window for a long time.

Occasionally, when I think too much, my mother will suffer from a headache, and the pain is unbearable.Therefore, Dad always advised her not to think too much, just let nature take its course.

When he was young, he saw Xiao Dabao being brought back to his grandfather's house to play, and when he came back he brought a lot of candies to show off to him, Xiao Lie also once asked his mother where his own grandfather's house was.

At that time, Mother touched the little Xiao Lie's head, and told him tenderly: "They are far away, and Mother cannot take A Lie there."

The little Xiao Lie frowned and said disappointedly: "Then A Lie won't see anyone from his grandparent's family? Mother doesn't want to go back either? Dabao said his grandmother loves him so much."

Li Jin was silent for a while, and only said: "Mother thinks that if grandma sees Ariel, she will love Ariel very much."

Being gently coaxed by his mother, Xiao Lie was also satisfied.

His maternal ancestral family will love him just like Dabao's ancestral family.

It's just that they are too far away to see them.

Xiao Lie felt a little regretful, but he didn't bother to ask.

Xiao Lie at that time did not see the bewilderment and sadness hidden in Li Jin's gentle eyes.

Later, Mother's health became worse and worse, and Xiao Lie gradually became sensible.

In order to avoid Li Jin's headache caused by mentioning the past, Xiao Shu, Xiao Lie and his son no longer mentioned Li Jin's past.

**
Xiao Lie's eyes were red when he was buried under the quilt, but he suppressed his emotions.

When he raised his head, he had returned to his usual composure.

Xiao Lie hugged Nuo Nuo in his arms, and said to Fu Yan: "You are right, since they came to the door, at least we need to know what happened back then."

He thought, his mother should also miss his family for the rest of his life.

Even if this is the belated truth, he still wants to know it before going to her grave and telling her.

Xiao Lie hugged Nunuo tightly, as for other things...he only wanted their little home to be safe and sound.

Hearing this, Fu Yan gently held his hand: "What's the matter, let's talk about it after checking the token in two days."

Xiao Lie nodded: "Don't tell Ah Jian about this beforehand."

Fu Yan understood.

Ah Jian is still young, these pasts have nothing to do with him, he just needs to study happily every day and grow up.

Seeing that Xiao Lie's mood calmed down and he was still able to play with Nuo Nuo, Fu Yan smiled and got up: "Brother Alie, please watch Nuo Nuo, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

"Okay, go ahead, I'm watching Nuo Nuo."

Life has to go on.

As soon as Xiao Jian came home, she ran to Nuo Nuo's little bed.

Unfortunately, the baby fell asleep after playing tired.

Xiao Jian puffed up her face and said in frustration: "I came back early today, why is Nuo Nuo still sleeping?"

He gently held Nunuuo's little hand in the palm of his hand, and the big hand held the small hand, both of which were white and tender.

Xiao Jian moved Nuo Nuo's small bed to the big study and put it in the big study. She will have dinner later, so she will know in time when Nuo Nuo wakes up.

The family had bought a lot of books one after another before, but Xiao Lie had just flipped through them in order to name them.

Now that he has time, he took out a military book and read it slowly from the beginning.

Xiao Lie sat in front of the desk without even raising his head: "Okay, let her sleep for a while. Come here and practice your calligraphy first. You can play with her after she wakes up."

Xiao Jian thought about it, and felt that what her brother said made sense, so she sat on another desk and copied the copybook seriously.

Xiao Jian was a patient child when he was studying, and he would not be easily disturbed by the outside world when he was indulging in books.

After dinner was ready, Granny Shi and Shi Man came in and out to set the dishes, Xiao Lie and Xiao Jian finally came back to clean up the desk.

Xiao Lie walked to the left, Nunuuo was still sleeping soundly.

Xiao Lie looked at his daughter and suddenly asked: "Ah Jian, if we have more than one grandparent's family, do you want to meet?"

Xiao Jian looked at her brother suspiciously: "Do we have any grandparents?"

Don't they only have that naughty uncle's family?

Xiao Lie: "Nothing, just ask casually. Let's go, it's time for dinner."

Xiao Jian scratched her head, didn't think much, just said: "Ah Jian is very happy to have a brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Nuonuo."

"There is also Granny Shi... Uncle Changming, Aunt Zhang..." Xiao Jian counted the people close to her one by one.

Xiao Lie couldn't help laughing and said: "Okay, come over for dinner."

Xiao Jian came over and looked at Nuonuo: "Nuonuo is still sleeping, isn't she hungry?"

"Wait until she wakes up by herself, she will cry when she wakes up now."

"Then let's not call her." Xiao Jian shook her head again and again, the little niece cried too loudly, and he also felt lingering fear.

The doors of the main room and the study room are open, they just need to pay attention to Nuo Nuo's movements in the main room.

Sure enough, after eating, Nuo Nuo woke up.

Xiao Jian happily put down the bowls and chopsticks and played with Shi Man together with Xiao Nuo Nuo.

……

Silent night.

In the east wing, Fu Yan found the jade pendant wrapped in a handkerchief from the exquisite little box, and returned to the bed.

Fu Yan opened the veil and put the jade pendant in Xiao Lie's hand.

Fu Yan: "Brother Alie, you asked me to keep this before, so you can keep it."

The texture of the jade is warm and moist, Xiao Lie lowered his head and rubbed it.

Fu Yan was curious: "I don't think there is anything special about this jade pendant."

Xiao Lie also turned it back and forth, this jade pendant had been kept in his hand for a long time, the style had long been engraved in his mind.

The blue and white jade pendant is in the shape of a safety buckle, and the word "Jin" is engraved on the back.Whether it is texture or shape, it can be said to be mediocre.

Xiao Lie: "It's nothing special. That's why my mother thought it was just an accessory she carried with her back then, and it was just a thought."

Fu Yan used her imagination: "Then can this be faked? They can prove the relationship by taking out another jade pendant?"

You know, it is impossible to accurately identify blood relatives even if there is a drop of blood.

Xiao Lie was amused by her question: "Fakes shouldn't be too much, and the quality of jade can't even be said to be top-grade. We are just ordinary people. After all these years, what can they want us to do?"

"Yes." Fu Yan nodded.

Xiao Lie looked at the jade pendant with deep eyes, and seemed to look at others through the jade pendant: "I just want to know what mother has gone through to end up here."

"And this is what mother once wanted to know."

Fu Yan shook her loose hair: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and you will know in two days. It's getting late, Brother Alie, lie down and rest."

"it is good."

Xiao Lie rewrapped the jade pendant with a handkerchief and put it away in the dark compartment at the head of the bed.

He got up and covered Nunuuo's little quilt again before returning to Fu Yan's side, hugging his wife to relax.

In the dream, Xiao Lie saw the figure of his mother leaning on the window and looking at the moon alone...
