Concubine [Slow Wear] - Chapter 372
While the two children were going to school for the exam, Xu’s mother hung up the phone with Xu’s father. Originally this year, she wanted to invite Xiao Qu to go home for this winter vacation, but after knowing the young man’s thoughts about her daughter, she hesitated. , I always feel that bringing people into the house like this has the feeling of introducing a wolf into the room.
But don’t ask the child to go, and I think it’s pitiful for the child to celebrate the New Year alone.
When she was undecided, Xu Ma wanted to catch someone to talk about it, but her aunt was obviously not a suitable person. To be more precise, no one was a suitable person except Xu Dad. Before it was successful, it was well known to everyone who was not good at making things happen.
Dad Xu was on the phone, and after listening to Mama Xu’s words, ‘Tell me about this young man now, how to talk about a person like a family, split and closed, no guarantee. ‘ ‘But Xiao Qu is a good child, and thinks much more than our daughter. ‘ ‘Hey, I’m too lazy to care about their affairs! ‘, and understood Xu Ma’s entanglement again. After pondering for a while, after digesting the news, he said, “I remember that Xiao Qu also has a house in G City? The former child also entrusted our daughter to take care of it. Let’s go…” Speaking of which, Dad Xu was silent, so when Xiao Qu expressed his feelings to his daughter is not the point, the point should be, when did the two get together again, and to what extent? …
Thinking that for more than a year, the daughter has always been running to Beijing, Dad Xu had a bad feeling in his heart.
But this is still not good, so I told the old lady on the other end of the phone, otherwise no one would stop her. With the temperament of my own old lady, I had to blow it up, and I was afraid it would make the scene ugly. After thinking about it, Dad Xu decided to wait until they all came back from Beijing.
“Hey, hey, Lao Xu, why didn’t you speak? Did you drop the line?” Xu’s mother was on the other end of the phone, took off the receiver and looked at it, and said a little to herself.
“Ah.” Papa Xu replied while distracted from the state of thinking, “Maybe the signal is not good, I just said, if Xiaoqu returns to G City during the winter vacation, you can call him home during the New Year. already.”
After listening to Dad Xu’s idea, Mother Xu thought, ‘Hey, why didn’t she think about it, she really got into a dead end. ’, Anyway, it’s only a few days for the New Year. At other times, let Xiao Qu go back to his own house.
After this matter was settled, Mother Xu cared about the trivial situation of Dad Xu at home alone, and ended the call. Contrary to the relaxed mood after Mommy Xu hung up, Dad Xu was This is a bit of a headache.
After the final exam, the students with no special circumstances all started to go home for the New Year.
Beijing Medical University’s final exam started earlier this year. When Lin Xianxian finished the last subject, Xu Erge had two more exams to take, while Qu Tianlei would not start the final exam in two days.
Therefore, although Qu Tianlei will also go back to G City during the winter vacation, he does not go with the Xu family. Of course, the late holiday is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that he has been helping him all these years ago. The uncle’s house is a good visit.
After all, the ten years of turmoil is over, and he doesn’t need to worry about whether his ingredients will implicate anyone. It’s also time, it’s time to thank them.
As a result, when he visited the uncle named Li En, Uncle Li took out a letter from the study and gave it to him.
This letter was entrusted by Father Qu to Uncle Li to pass on to him. It was written before Father Qu and Mother Qu were handed over to him. When Father Qu entrusted this letter to Li En, he explained that if the state would rehabilitate their family in the future If that is the case, then give this letter to the child. If there is no such day, then it will be fine.
When Qu Tianlei listened to Uncle Li repeating his father’s words, the hand holding the envelope was trembling slightly.
He forcedly thanked him calmly, and opened the letter in a deserted alley after he came out of Li’s house.
Dad Qu didn’t write anything special in the letter, except for some words of concern for his son, it was to explain to Qu Tianlei not to forget the family motto of their Qu family and be a good person.
But Qu Tianlei understood what Dad Qu meant. He remembered that when he was a child, his grandfather once held him, pointed to the tree in the yard, the shadow reflected in the house, and played with him repeatedly, starting from the tip of the tree shadow. , How to get to a certain position of the game, there must be something important hidden there.
Although there is already a rough guess about what is buried in the soil, for Qu Tianlei, those are not as precious as the letter in his hand. This letter is actually equivalent to what his father left to him. His last words.
Who would have thought that on such an ordinary day, the happy family was broken overnight, the dearest parents were separated from then on, and there was not even a goodbye, and they disappeared into his life so unexpectedly, and never came back. coming.
Although this letter is only a few words from Father Qu before his death, to Qu Tianlei, it seems like a little fire in the cold night. Although it has a slightly scorching power, it can also bring him a little warmth and comfort. .
After returning to his home in G City, Qu Tianlei found the treasures of the Qu family according to the method he remembered. These were hidden by his grandfather Qu for future generations. Grandfather Qu had experienced the most chaotic period in China’s life, so The old man always likes to keep some backhands, and what is hidden in this underground secret room is actually most of the wealth of the Qu family, including gold bars and antiques, and some silver dollars, but obviously, these things should not be seen again now.
However, when he saw some jeweled jewelry, Qu Tianlei had an urge to use it to decorate his little girl, but this urge is obviously out of date at present.
Speaking of Lin Xianxian, she was really not prepared for Xu’s father and mother, and she had no idea that she was on the verge of being exposed.
Xu’s mother didn’t tell her about Qu Tianlei, but thought that the young man would solve it by himself. She was afraid that she would be blindly involved, but instead, she would not be able to fix the matter.
Dad Xu didn’t explain his guesses to Mom Xu. First, he was afraid of irritating his wife. Second, he hadn’t verified the matter at his daughter’s place. After all, there was a possibility that he thought too much. He was a little bit unable to open this mouth with his daughter.
In short, this family of three is hiding something from each other.
When Qu Tianlei came to visit with gifts, Xu’s mother left him for dinner. Xu’s father just had something to ask him. After the meal, he brought people into the study.
“Sit down.” Dad Xu pointed to the chair in front of the desk and said, walking to the thermos, turning over two enamel cups, and pouring some hot water on them.
A cup was placed in front of Qu Tianlei. Seeing that he was still standing, Dad Xu said “sit down” again.
When he walked around the desk and walked to his position, Dad Xu’s expression was a moment of shyness. When he turned around again, this shyness had disappeared from his face, and it all turned into a face. Moderate enthusiasm in junior years. “Your aunt has already told me your thoughts. Can you tell your uncle what made you change your mind?”
Hearing this question, Qu Tianlei paused when he was drinking, then tilted the enamel cup casually, and continued to drink the water. After that, he put down the cup slowly, looked up at Xu Dad’s eyes and said , “Because, Madoka is already mine.”
Although he already had this speculation in his heart, Dad Xu did not expect that this kid would dare to admit it so bluntly and boldly in front of him.
Dad Xu squinted his eyes, “You’re quite a brave boy!” Dad Xu’s voice was still smiling, but his eyes were so cold that his bones were chilled, and the water cup in his hand suddenly went to the table. The last meal, water splashed out from the mouth of the cup, and said in a loud and coercive voice, “Do you really think that I can’t do anything to you when you say this in front of Laozi?!”
Faced with such a sudden power, Qu Tianlei did not blink, but leaned back slightly on the back of the chair. With this uncle-like posture, he looked at Dad Xu who stood up, and the corners of his brows and eyes even squinted. With some leisurely smiles, “Uncle Xu misunderstood, the younger generation just doesn’t want to use rhetoric to deceive the elders. You are Miao Yuan’s father, and I respect you.” Qu Tianlei said with reason and reason, neither humble nor arrogant. Speaking of respect, but in terms of momentum, it was because of Dad Xu’s urgency and his stability that he seemed to have the upper hand.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Dad Xu knew that this kid is not a vegetarian, so frightening is impossible to scare him, after narrowing his eyes, he suddenly put on a smile, “What you said is nice, But your uncle and I are also men, don’t tell me, because of this kind of thing, you have a relationship with my family Miao Yuan. If that’s the case, it’s hard for me to trust my daughter to you!”
“Uncle Xu, please rest assured on this point.” Qu Tianlei stood up from the chair, stood up straight, tidied up his clothes and said, “Xiao Yuan is my woman, and I will not let her suffer any grievance. Uncle Xu is here,” Qu Tianlei looked up at Dad Xu, then raised his head and said to him jokingly, “I also ask Uncle Xu not to embarrass Xiaoyuan for this, otherwise, I will have a good talk with Aunt Xu, Xu How did Uncle know, this man knows everything.” He said it was a joke, but the power on his body seemed to radiate naturally.
After Qu Tianlei finished speaking, he bowed slightly to Dad Xu, who was neither humble nor arrogant.
Dad Xu watched his back disappear at the door, and sneered for a while, “Hey, stinky boy, you are still taking care of my daughter!” Although his tone was impatient, there was implicit appreciation in his eyes, and he didn’t know if his daughter knew. What kind of wolf cub was she provoked back.
Thinking of his own little girl, and thinking about her remarks that she used to suffer, Dad Xu has a headache and hates iron.
Dad Xu sighed, looking at the mess on the table at the moment, he could only resignedly roll up his sleeves, and tidy up the table by himself.
