"Are you sleeping?" Jiang Xiangyang pushed open the door of his sister's room without turning on the light.
Jiang Kexin didn't reply. Jiang Xiangyang looked at his sister's twitching shoulders and knew that she was not asleep.
Jiang Xiangyang took off his clothes and shoes, lay down next to his sister, put her into his arms, and asked pretending to be a joke: "Why are you crying at such an old age?"
"Sister, will dad really be with Aunt Wang?" In the darkness, Jiang Kexin burst into tears. She missed her mother.
"Don't you want to?" Jiang Xiangyang knew what his sister was thinking. Although his sister had already joined the workforce, she had grown up under the protection of her family. Apart from the death of her mother, she had never experienced anything. He still has the temperament of a child.
"I don't know, I just miss our mother." Jiang Kexin knew that after so many years of being alone, her father should find someone to accompany him.
"I've thought about it too." Jiang Xiangyang patted his sister's arm, "But people always have to look forward, right?"
Jiang Kexin didn't reply. She knew she couldn't be so selfish and leave her father alone forever.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with dad and Aunt Wang being together. At least we don't have to worry about dad being bored at home alone. When we're not at home, we can have someone to talk to him," Jiang Xiangyang said comfortingly.
"Sure, even if dad and Aunt Wang are together, dad is still our dad, nothing will change." Jiang Xiangyang closed his eyes and hugged his sister tightly.
Jiang Xiangyang remembered his father's previous injury. While collecting scraps, my father accidentally stepped on the ground and fell from the second floor. The owner sent his father to the hospital. After examination, it was found that his father had broken two ribs. He lay in the hospital for a month. go home.
During that time, Jiang Xiangyang often worked overtime due to work matters and did not go home on weekends. It was already a month and a half later when he returned home. In the middle of the journey, Jiang Xiangyang called his father several times, but he did not find out that his father was hospitalized.
Jiang Xiangyang still didn't find out that his father was injured until he returned home. He saw the X-rays from the hospital at home, and after questioning, he found out that his father was injured.
For this, Jiang Xiangyang blamed himself for a long time. In order to allow himself to work with peace of mind, his father kept this matter hidden from his sister. If his father could have a close person by his side, Jiang Xiangyang would feel more at ease. I hope my sister can understand her father's hard work and come out of it as soon as possible.
Jiang Xiangyang thought a lot that night and slowly fell asleep.
The next day, when Jiang Xiangyang woke up, he touched his side and found that his sister Jiang Kexin was no longer there. It seemed that her sister had already gotten up. Hearing the noisy noise outside, Jiang Xiangyang tidied up and got up.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Xiangyang looked at his father and sister who were busy working in the kitchen.
"Xiang Yang, you're up. Your sister said that she would call Aunt Wang to the house at noon so that we could have a meal together. No, we went to the vegetable market in the morning and bought a lot of things and came back." Jiang's father said He said cheerfully, without stopping what he was doing.
Jiang Kexin glanced at her sister with a smile, but said nothing.
The two sisters smiled knowingly. Jiang Xiangyang knew that his sister had figured it out last night. Jiang Xiangyang felt relieved and joined his father and sister in their activities.
After the three of them were busy working for a while, there was a knock on the door. Several people looked at each other and pushed their father to look at the door.
"Coming?" Father Jiang cleared his throat and pretended to cough.
"I'll come over early to see if there's anything I can do to help." Wang Fang tidied up before coming. Knowing that Jiang Wencheng's two daughters were at home, she felt a little nervous at the moment.
"Aunt Wang, you are here." Jiang Xiangyang took his sister out and greeted Wang Fang warmly, "Come in and sit down."
"Are you Xiangyang and Kexin? It's your first time here and I don't know what you like. I didn't bring any valuable gifts. The clothes and the two red envelopes are a little bit of your Aunt Wang's wishes." Wang Fang took out two red envelopes from the bag. , saying that he was going to put it into the hands of the two sisters.
"Aunt Wang, you can't do this. You're too polite." Jiang Xiangyang refused and did not accept the red envelope.
"It's a little thought from auntie. Take it, take it, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look." Wang Fang was afraid that her two daughters wouldn't accept it, so she stuffed the red envelope into Jiang Xiangyang's hand and turned and walked towards the kitchen.
"This..." Jiang Xiangyang glanced at his father, wondering whether he should accept the red envelope.
"Take it. You guys sit here, your Aunt Wang Fang and I are busy in the kitchen." After speaking, Father Jiang went into the kitchen.
Seeing his father and Aunt Wang Fang talking and laughing in the kitchen, Jiang Xiangyang felt that his father seemed to have returned to the time when his mother was there.
It was the same at that time. My father and mother were busy in the kitchen, while I and my sister sat outside watching TV and enjoying the results.
"Aunt Wang, why don't you come out and take a rest, and I'll do it?" Jiang Xiangyang felt that it was a bit embarrassing for Aunt Wang to come to visit her for the first time and ask her to work in the kitchen instead.
"Haha, it's okay. There is a lot of fumes in the kitchen. You girls need to take good care of yourself. Your dad and I will just be busy here." Wang Fang has no daughter, only one son. When her husband was still alive, she wanted to have a daughter. Now that she had two daughters for nothing, Wang Fang was very happy.
"Okay, it's time to start eating." Father Jiang brought the last dish to the table and the four of them sat down one after another.
"Come, today is the first time your Aunt Wang Fang has arrived home. Let's welcome you Aunt Wang Fang together. From now on, we will be a family." Father Jiang raised his wine glass excitedly. He had not been so happy for a long time.
"Aunt Wang, welcome."
"Aunt Wang, welcome."
Jiang Xiangyang and his sister Jiang Kexin raised their wine glasses together to celebrate the new member of the family.
Jiang Wencheng and Wang Fang had discussed before that since they were both very old, there was no need to hold a banquet. They could just choose a suitable day, collect the certificates, and then invite close relatives from both families to have a meal. .
Jiang Xiangyang also agrees with this idea. After all, they are too old and are not suitable for arrogant things anymore. Just keep everything simple and the two elders will be happy.
The two days of the weekend passed very quickly, because when Aunt Wang came to the house for dinner, and Wang Fang moved to the Jiang family, there was still a lot of room to clean up, and Jiang Xiangyang did not have a date with Shen Yunfei in the past two days.
The two just chatted through WeChat. Jiang Xiangyang was concerned about the physical condition of Shen Yunfei's father and wanted to visit him. But firstly, there was something going on at home, and secondly, Jiang Xiangyang was worried that Shen's mother would not be happy if he went there, so he just expressed his concern to Shen Yunfei.
"I miss you." Shen Yunfei glanced at his father lying on the hospital bed and sent a message to Jiang Xiangyang.
"I miss you too. We can meet next weekend." Jiang Xiangyang thought, maybe next time we meet...
