After I Lost My Job, I Went Home To Farm - Chapter 89
The breeze is gentle, and the fragrance of pears is overflowing.
The woman looked at the luxuriant pear tree, carefully looked at this unique courtyard, and then set her eyes on Gu Yinan, “Is this the Gu family?”
Gu Yinan hummed and asked politely, “What’s the matter with you?”
The woman took a closer look at Gu Yinan’s face, and was not too afraid to confirm it. Just when she was about to confirm it again, Grandma Gu’s voice came from the room, “Nannan, have you got the courier? Come in quickly!”
Gu Yinan replied in the courtyard, “It’s not a courier.”
Grandma Gu asked loudly, “Who is that?”
“I don’t know.” Gu Yinan didn’t notice the woman’s changing face after he finished speaking.
Grandma Gu came out and looked at the woman outside the yard, feeling a little familiar, but she couldn’t remember who it was, “If you don’t know him, just close the door and come in for dinner.”
Seeing the door that was about to close, the woman hurriedly said, “Mom, I’m Xu Ying.”
Grandma Gu was stunned for a moment, looking at the woman suspiciously, no wonder she felt familiar just now, it was her. But Grandma Gu didn’t want to pay attention to this woman at all, pretended not to hear, and closed the door directly.
The woman reached out her hand to block the door and called out Mom again.
Grandma Gu’s face was ashen, “I don’t know you, so don’t recognize people randomly.”
The woman who claimed to be Xu Ying held the door, “Mom, don’t close the door yet, I want to have a good talk with you and Niuniu.”
Gu Yinan glanced at the woman suspiciously, what the **** was going on?
“Nannan, come in.” Grandma Gu walked out of the yard and closed the door with her backhand.
Gu Yinan looked at the closed courtyard door and felt a little confused. Was that what she guessed it meant?
Song Huai looked at her worriedly, “Are you alright?”
Gu Yinan shook his head, “It’s okay, let’s go in.”
Song Huai didn’t expose Gu Yinan’s lies, and looked back at the closed courtyard door, intending to go back and ask Assistant An to check.
Grandma Gu dragged Xu Ying to a place far away from the yard. Xu Ying was wearing high heels and was dragged by Grandma Gu to stumble forward, “Mom…”
Grandma Gu looked at Xu Ying resentfully, “Don’t call me mom!”
“Who is your mother? Stop recognizing relatives. I have only one son in my life, but I have never given birth to a daughter!”
Before Xu Ying came, she knew that Grandma Gu would be angry, so she lowered her stance and spoke in a low voice, not showing the momentum of a usual strong woman, “Mom, I really had a last resort.”
Grandma Gu was so angry that her face turned blue and purple, “Hemin passed away less than two months ago, and you left your daughter who was less than three years old and ran away with others. Do you have any difficulties?”
“Let me tell you Xu Ying, I don’t care whether you have real hardships or some shameful deeds, how far you go to me, I feel disgusted when I look at you!”
Xu Ying didn’t reply, “Mom, I really have difficulties.”
“Don’t act in front of me! I won’t eat your way!” As soon as Grandma Gu saw Xu Ying, she thought of the scene of Nannan crying and looking for her mother. Sent to the clinic, injections and infusions, and tossed for almost a month.
Every time she thinks of her granddaughter’s sickness, her heart throbs. She always says that the child is a piece of meat that fell from the mother’s body, but Xu Ying was fine. Years, if she came back to see Nannan once during this period, she would not be so angry.
Xu Ying raised her hand and wiped her red eyes, “Mom, although I haven’t come back all these years, I’ve always been thinking about you and Niuniu in my heart, thinking about you all the time. Come back to pick you up and have fun.”
“After so many years, my conditions are finally better, and I finally have the face to come back to see you.”
Grandma Gu has hatred in her heart, how could Xu Ying be able to coax her with a few words, “I can’t afford your blessings.”
When Nannan missed her mother, she went to Xu’s house and asked her grandfather to tell her grandmother to let the Xu family help contact Xu Ying, and wanted Xu Ying to call Nannan and ask Nannan to listen to her mother’s voice, but the call was answered, Xu Ying Ying directly hung up.
The Xu family said that they should stop pestering Xu Ying. Xu Ying is still young and worth pursuing a better life.
She was never a bad mother-in-law, and she never said that Xu Ying would not remarry. The attitude of Xu Ying and Xu’s family directly stabbed her heart. Since then, she never took Nannan to Xu’s house. Of course, Xu’s family also Haven’t seen Nannan once.
So now Xu Ying came to say that she was thinking about her and Nannan, she didn’t believe a word, “You were able to run away with people back then, but now you come back and pretend to be a loving mother, get out of here!”
Xu Ying’s face turned blue and purple after being scolded, “Mom, I was wrong in the past, but this time I came back to really want to apologize to you. I came here to ask you to forgive me sincerely.”
“If you were sincere, you wouldn’t come here in the evening? This is because you are afraid that people will see you ashamed!” Grandma Gu’s attitude was very firm: “I won’t forgive you, you can go.”
Xu Ying looked very hurt and sniffed, “Mom, it’s okay if you don’t want to forgive me, but what about Niuniu? I’m Niuniu’s mother, should I have the right to recognize her?”
Grandma Gu snorted angrily: “What Niuniu, we don’t have Niuniu at home, you can go to recognize it somewhere else if you want.”
Gu Yinan’s baby name was Niuniu when she was a child. Later, her father died and her mother ran away with others. Grandma Gu felt that the name was not good, so she asked someone to choose this new name. Nannan has been called this name for more than 20 years. , I’m not used to hearing Niuniu’s rustic name for a while.
Xu Ying looked at the stubborn Grandma Gu and closed her eyes in pain, “Mom, I know you’re mad at me, but I’m Niuniu’s mother after all, don’t be so strong.”
Grandma Gu glared at Xu Ying fiercely, wishing to peel her off with her eyes: “I’m strong? It’s already a good temper if I don’t beat you out.”
Xu Ying took a deep breath. She hadn’t been scolded like this for years, “Mom, I want to talk to Niuniu in person.”
“The person just now was Niuniu, right? She doesn’t look like us at all, and I didn’t recognize her at all.” Xu Ying didn’t expect her daughter to be so outstanding, and she didn’t dare to confirm it when she saw it just now.
Grandma Gu raised her voice subconsciously: “You are not allowed to go.”
Gu Yinan listened to the suddenly rising voice outside the yard, worried that her grandmother would be bullied, she opened the door and ran out. Seeing her angrily staring at the woman, she could not help frowning, “Grandma, the food is cold, come in. .”
Xu Ying’s eyes were flushed with water, and she shouted with excitement, “Niuniu.”
Xu Ying wiped her red eyes, “Niuniu, I’m mother, I’ve been thinking about you all these years, are you okay?”
Gu Yinan looked at the hated and angry grandma, and then said coldly to Xu Ying, “Ma’am, I’m not called Niuniu.”
As soon as Xu Ying heard Gu Yinan’s tone so cold, tears rolled down her eyes, “Niuniu, my mother is wrong, please forgive my mother?
Gu Yinan is not a three-year-old child who will run away with a few words of sugar. She has also heard about the Xu family over the years. If she really regrets it, she should come to pick her up when she is in her teens. .
Grandma Gu laughed angrily at Xu Ying’s words, “You keep thinking about her? Then do you know what day is today?”
Xu Ying didn’t know why, “What day?”
Grandma Gu sneered, “Today is her birthday.”
Xu Ying was stunned. She didn’t expect that the day she picked at random was actually Gu Yinan’s birthday, and she hurriedly apologized, “Niuniu, I’m sorry, mom came in a hurry and forgot to bring you a birthday present, so mom will go to town. Buy you a birthday cake.”
After Xu Ying finished speaking, she thought that it was already evening, and the cake shop in the town might also be closed, “Mom will buy one tomorrow and give you another birthday, okay?”
Gu Yinan smiled indifferently, “Grandma, let’s go in.”
“Let’s go.” Grandma Gu led Gu Yinan and walked far into the courtyard, closing the courtyard door heavily and shutting Xu Ying outside the door.
Xu Ying stood outside for a while, staring at the leafy big pear tree for a while, then took a deep breath, then took out her sunglasses and put them on, covering her slightly red eyes, and then turned towards her. Waiting for the car on the side of the road to go.
After Grandma Gu was admitted to the hospital, she lost her appetite. She forced herself to eat a few mouthfuls of food and then went back to the house to rest.
Gu Yinan was not in a good mood, but she still took out the cake as if nothing had happened, smiled and picked up the knife and started dividing the cake, “Eat the cake.”
Gu Yinan looked at the big cream cake, and his nose was a little sour, “Let’s have one piece each, okay?”
Song Huai grabbed Gu Yinan’s knife holding hand, “I haven’t lit the candle yet.”
“Yes.” Gu Yinan remembered with hindsight that before eating the birthday cake, she lit candles and sang the birthday song, she smiled lightly, and said lightly, “I forgot.”
“I’ll light it.” Song Huai inserted the candle and lit it. The dim light of the fire reflected on Gu Yinan’s face, “Make a wish.”
Gu Yinan looked at the firelight, and the smile in his eyes became much more real, “Shouldn’t you sing a birthday song before making a wish?”
Song Huai also hadn’t had a birthday for many years, and he wasn’t quite sure after thinking about it, “Is there any?”
“Yes.” Gu Yinan looked at Song Huai, feeling very uncomfortable, “Isn’t it your birthday?”
Song Huai snorted. In the past, every birthday meant that he was one step closer to death. He didn’t want to celebrate his birthday, and Aunt Jiang and the others didn’t dare to celebrate his birthday.
Gu Yinan’s heart suffocated, “I will accompany you on your birthday from now on.”
Song Huai nodded with a smile, “I’m with you too.”
Gu Yinan nodded with a smile and said yes, but with a little more tears in her eyes, she pursed her lips, folded her hands, closed her eyes, and pretended to be relaxed, “Then I made a wish.”
Gu Yinan made the wish seriously, and then opened his eyes, his eyes had regained clarity, “Then cut the cake, we each have one piece.”
Song Huai doesn’t like to eat sweets, but he thinks he can eat a little today, “Okay.”
The sky was getting darker and the moon was shining brightly.
The two of them sat under the pear tree holding a small piece of cake, watching the fluttering fireflies, twinkling like stars.
Gu Yinan ate the sweet and greasy cake and asked Song Huai, “Is it delicious?”
Song Huai took a small sip and put it into his mouth, “Sweet.”
After a pause, “Do you like to eat?”
“I like it.” In fact, Gu Yinan found that he didn’t like eating cakes that much. Why did he always look forward to eating a big cake on his birthday in those years?
Song Huai looked at Gu Yinan’s low tone, sighed in his heart, put the cake in his hand aside, raised his hand and gently rubbed her head, comforting her softly: “Don’t be sad.”
The author has something to say: Is there a little fairy daughter who rarely celebrates her birthday?
