"Are you Xiao Yuanbao?"
Cheng Mei asked, holding back tears.
Xiao Fu looked at Cheng Mei with her big round eyes, and felt strange. Cheng Mei clearly knew who she was, so why did she continue to ask her if she was Xiao Yuan Bao?
"I am Xiao Yuanbao." Although she was confused, Xiao Fuyuan still answered clearly.
This Aunt Cheng Mei is so mysterious. She wears a curtain hat in the room, so her face cannot be seen clearly.
But Xiao Fuyuan felt that she was very kind to her inexplicably, as if she had seen her before somewhere.
Cheng Mei finally reached out and touched Xiao Fuyuan's head.
Her jet black hair was twisted into a bun with two delicate velvet flowers by Qiuniang's skillful hands.
Big watery eyes, snow-white skin, and a gold collar around his neck.
The whole person looks more and more cute.
She was full of gratitude to the Bai family, even though she knew from the beginning that the Bai family and his wife were kind people and would never treat her daughter badly.
She really saw with her own eyes that her daughter was raised better by the Bai family than she imagined.
"That's good, that's good." Cheng Mei rubbed Xiao Fuyuan's head and murmured to himself.
Xiao Fuyuan was even more confused.
Aunt Cheng seemed to be crying. She didn't understand why Hao Hao was crying.
"I read the letter you wrote to me last time, and I also read your paintings. I like them very much." Cheng Mei said.
At the same time, I was once again grateful to the Bai family for their upbringing of their daughter. Let alone ordinary farm families, even wealthy families rarely let their daughters study and read.
But the Bai family asked Xiao Fuyuan to study and read like boys. She heard that Xiao Fuyuan went to a private school every day.
It can be seen that the Bai family pays great attention to the upbringing of their daughter.
She noticed from the moment she entered the yard that everyone in the Bai family, from the octogenarian grandmother to the blond child, doted on little Fuyuan.
"I like the little porcelain and the music box you gave me the most." Xiao Fuyuan pointed at the table behind him and said with his big eyes flashing.
Cheng Mei's eyes fell on the table. There were small porcelain and music boxes on it. It seemed that her daughter often played with them.
"From now on, whatever you like, I'll get it for you." Cheng Mei was quite excited.
"Thank you, you have already given me a lot of gifts, so there is no need for them." Xiao Fuyuan said.
"Can I give you a hug?" Cheng Mei suddenly stretched out her hands towards Xiao Fuyuan.
Xiao Fuyuan turned to look at Zhen, who smiled and nodded gently.
"Okay, hug."
Before Cheng Mei could react, a delicate, soft and fragrant little body had already fallen into her arms.
So familiar, yet so strange.
Cheng Mei paused and hugged the small and delicate body tightly in her arms.
Everything is real like a dream.
Little Fuyuan has been hugged by people outside the Bai family, He Shun, Mrs. Zhongjing Houfu, Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Zhifu, Grandma Du... But no embrace has ever been as warm as Cheng Mei's, and it is not unfamiliar at all. .
Like, like mother's arms.
Old Mrs. Bai and Ms. Zhen, who was sitting beside her, did not stop Cheng Mei from hugging Xiao Fuyuan.
After a long, long time, Cheng Mei let go.
Xiao Fuyuan raised her head from Cheng Mei's arms, and Cheng Mei touched her face seriously, as gently as if she wanted to caress her.
"Thank you." Cheng Mei turned to look at Zhen, his voice thick with sobs.
Mrs. Zhen smiled and said nothing.
"Aunt Cheng, can I see you?" Xiao Fuyuan stroked the hanging veil of the curtain hat. She was very curious about Cheng's eyebrows.
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Zhen was shocked and quickly tried to stop him.
Cheng Mei waved her hand and asked gently: "Does Little Yuan Bao know that I look very scary?"
Although she was worried about scaring Xiao Fuyuan, she couldn't help but hope that her daughter could see her clearly, instead of giving her a blurry shadow like now.
Xiao Fuyuan thought for a while and said, "Aunt Cheng is a good person. Third brother said, you can't judge people by their appearance."
Cheng Mei nodded, feeling grateful again for the Bai family's upbringing of little Fuyuan.
Xiao Fuyuan tilted her head and looked at Cheng Mei, her eyes full of longing.
Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Zhen of Baiban also turned their heads to look at Cheng Mei. They were also curious about Cheng Mei's current appearance.
Especially Zhen, she concluded from the moment Cheng Mei got off the carriage that she was Xiao Fuyuan's biological mother and the gentle eldest lady of the Shen family.
It's just that I don't know what her appearance has become, which makes her say very scary things.
Cheng Mei stretched out her hand and gently lifted off her curtain, revealing a face that had been distorted by fire.
Even though Mrs. Bai and Mr. and Mrs. Zhen of Baiban were mentally prepared, they couldn't help but gasp when they saw them suddenly.
Zhen's eyes were not only shocked but also distressed. What had happened to Mrs. Shen? Her face was completely ruined.
"Are you scared?"
If others saw her twisted face, she wouldn't care at all.
But in front of her daughter, she was afraid of scaring her.
Cheng Mei held the curtain hat in her hand and wanted to cover it.
"Not afraid." Xiao Fuyuan raised her head and looked steadily at Cheng Mei's burned and terrifying face. She didn't feel scared at all.
Cheng Mei's hands dropped weakly, and her whole face was exposed.
"Does it hurt?"
Suddenly, Xiao Fuyuan leaned on her toes and stretched out her hand, gently covering Cheng Mei's face and stroking the raised scar bit by bit.
Aunt Cheng's face was ruined like this, how painful it was!
Little Fuyuan almost cried in distress.
She didn't find Cheng Mei's face ugly at all, she only felt distressed.
When her daughter's gentle hands touched the wound on her face, Cheng Mei could feel the heartache of mother and daughter. She was at a loss for a moment and tears suddenly rolled down her face.
Her face was stabbed with a knife and burned by fire. She did not cry even through such severe pain.
Faced with her daughter's concern, she couldn't stop crying.
Her daughter was so considerate, she couldn't help but hugged little Fuyuan again and rubbed her hard.
Xiao Fuyuan stood on tiptoe and touched Cheng Mei's face again and said, "I'll give you a whir. It doesn't hurt. It doesn't hurt."
Cheng Mei's tears rolled down again.
Mrs. Zhen was sitting aside, her eyes were red, this was truly a mother-daughter bond, they couldn't stop the fight!
"Here you go." Xiao Fuyuan took out his favorite pine nut candy from his pocket and stuffed it into Cheng Mei's hand, saying, "I feel better after eating the candy."
Cheng Mei took the candy and held it in her hand.
Her little girl is really like a little sun.
Cheng Mei calmed down and asked Xiao Fuyuan about his daily life. Xiao Fuyuan answered one by one. Cheng Mei thanked the Bai family for taking good care of Xiao Fuyuan.
After a long time of recovery, Mrs. Zhen saw that the fire was almost done. She reached out to wave Xiao Fuyuan and said to her: "You go outside to play for a while. Mom has something to talk to your Aunt Cheng."
Xiao Fuyuan nodded, smiled, and walked out of the upper room.
Cheng Mei's eyes were glued to Xiao Fuyuan, and she didn't look away until she walked into the yard.
"Madam." Zhen's calm voice drew Cheng Mei's eyes back.
Cheng Mei thought to herself that she was afraid that Mrs. Zhen already knew her true identity. Even so, she was still willing to let her see Xiao Fuyuan. She was very grateful in her heart.
"I have so many words of gratitude to my sister that I don't know where to start..." Cheng Mei choked up.
"There is no need to say thank you, but since you gave Xiao Yuanbao to my family, she is my granddaughter." Mrs. Bai spoke first.
"No one can take her away!"
