"Daughter, stop drinking." Li Fengyin advised distressedly.
Chengzi held back tears and defended: "Dad, I'm fine... I just feel a little thirsty."
Both husband and wife have been through this, so how could they not see the pain in their daughter's eyes, but...if He Xi was not married, they could still encourage him.
Now, all we can do is persuade her to give up.
Looking at the well-matched man and woman in the crowd, Orange's fingers holding the wine glass turned white, and he poured the wine down his throat again with a bitter smile.
Both of them are her friends. She should bless her for her hair...
But, she was really in pain.
If...she had not chosen to study abroad and pursue her dream that year, would the outcome have been different?
Even though she knew it was impossible, she couldn't help but imagine it.
………
Among the people watching outside the villa, there was a woman about fifty years old, looking at this festive house with tears in her eyes.
Her daughter! She finally got married today. She was supposed to be sitting in the high hall, but now she is not even qualified to step here.
When did her original intention change?
Her husband died in the line of duty, and in order to take good care of her children, she remarried her first boyfriend before she died.
I haven’t seen him for many years. The young man who used to call me poor but ambitious has become philistine, selfish and indifferent.
She regretted it, but so what...
There is no turning back. Fortunately, her daughter is happy after all, and that is enough.
And all she can do is to stop dragging her down in this life.

"Hello." The voice from crying was a little hoarse and unpleasant.
"Madam! Why did it take you so long to go out to buy groceries? The young master is crying. Come back quickly! Otherwise, if the young master and madam know, you won't be able to eat tonight."
The woman has long been accustomed to the servants' disrespectful complaints.
"On the way."
In the second half of her life, she took care of her stepchildren and brought up her stepson and son, but she failed to take good care of her biological daughter.
…………
There was a fat boy outside the door. He smiled and handed a congratulatory gift to the middle-aged uncle in front of him, asking him to help deliver the congratulations.
There was also a letter inside, which was handed over to Yun Fei.
He Mingliang:
Hello Uncle He, do you still remember that you once sponsored a boy who was abused by his adoptive parents?
I'm sorry that it took me so many years to have the opportunity to say thank you, because the dean said that the sponsor was unwilling to disclose information, so I respect you and have never asked about you.
Until some time ago, the detective uncle who helped me call the police recognized me.
He said, I don’t know what luck I had that made the great actor fall in love with me.
Only then did Mingliang realize that the person who helped me was actually you! Thank you for giving me a new life. You are the benefactor of a bright life.
After Mingliang finishes his graduate studies, he will return to your studio to repay his kindness.
I wish brother He Xi a happy wedding and a happy marriage for a hundred years.
The accompanying gifts are a pair of small red dates, a pair of small peanuts, a pair of longans, and a pair of gold ornaments in the shape of lotus seeds.
The things are not too expensive, but they are unique and thoughtful.
On the back of the envelope was his personal number.
Yunfei laughed and entered the number to dial.
"Hello, who is this?" A young boy's voice came from the phone.
"Your brother is getting married today, would you like Xiao Liang to come in and have a wedding drink?"
"You...are you Uncle He? Okay, okay, I'm at the door...I haven't left yet."
The boy's voice was filled with suppressed excitement and a sense of incoherence.
………
Yunfei walked outside the door to pick him up.
A fat boy with a round face and glasses in the crowd walked up to him nervously.
He knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed three times to Yun Fei.
"Good boy, what are you doing? Get up!"
He Mingliang took off his glasses, wiped the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and choked with sobs: "I'm sorry, it's my first time meeting Uncle He. I'm so embarrassed."
"It's not shameful. Over the years, the dean has sent me all the awards you have won. You are great! Really."
"Thanks to you! Without you, I would have dropped out of school long ago.
The warmth every winter is given by you, the food and clothing for three meals a year are also given by you, and all the study equipment, expenses, and medical expenses for illness... are all given by you.
It can be said that without you! There is no such thing as a bright day! Not to mention three beeps, you can afford even three beeps every day. "He Mingliang choked with sobs.
In his heart, this uncle he had never met before was like a father.
The reporters nearby pressed the shutter to take pictures! Unexpectedly, I came to watch the wedding and got something unexpected.
"Haha, Uncle He doesn't care about that. Just live a good life. Let's go! It's your brother's big day today. Let's go have a drink."
"Um."
Before entering the door, Yunfei turned around and glanced at a certain figure from behind.
Why does that person look a bit like my daughter-in-law’s mother?
Let’s go in and talk to Tongtong later.
…………
After the wedding, the young couple went on their honeymoon.
Yunfei was left alone, taking his dog out for a walk every day, planting flowers and plants in the yard, and tidying up the study.
He looked as if he was ready to retire and start caring for his old age.
All the investment company's shares and studio were transferred to He Xi's name.
very nice! My son was soon promoted to be a father, and it was time for him to roll up.
When he is free, he would go to the forum to accompany his fans of the same age, discuss ways to maintain health, and then study and compose some fashionable and simple square dances.
Occasionally, we would talk about which artist in the entertainment industry has good works, and let’s chase stars together.
They would even get into fights because the stars they were chasing were not the same person.
Beihai Youmeng: "Brother, you are so childish! You are already in your early fifties, please calm down."
Hailanlan: "He Haisheng, where is your reputation as the best actor? Are you still chasing stars? When people see you, they have to respectfully call you senior, right?"
Neptune's woman: "Hahaha, that was before. Now that this man has given away all his assets, people may not necessarily take him seriously!!"
The sea water cannot be measured: "Brother Haisheng, my niece will be one year old next month, come and have a wedding drink!!"
Yunfei is disdainful, hum! Don’t you just want to show off your niece?
He Haisheng: "I don't have time. My daughter-in-law called yesterday and said she was one month pregnant. I have to prepare the children's room."
"...He actor? Deep Sea Fan Group? You all should change your names to old boys."
"Hahaha... I have too much pension money and I don't even know how to spend it. Why don't Brother Haisheng come back to earn our pension money?"
He Haisheng: "Thank you for the invitation, I'm done with it too."
…………
Yunfei lived to be 93 years old in this life, which can be said to be a very long-lived old man.
He had always been in good health and was able to go out for a walk with his dog the day before his death.
But that night, it rained heavily outside, and he fell asleep quietly on that thunderstorm night.
When the grandson forced his way into his room the next day, he only saw his former kind grandfather leaving with a smile on his face.
He took care of himself neatly. If it weren't for the cold temperature and stiff body, everyone would think that he was just asleep.
He Xi, Tongtong, and He Mingliang calmly carried the coffin to the cemetery and buried Yunfei's ashes next to He Xiaomei.
It wasn't until he turned around that people saw the red and swollen eyes.
Dad/adopted father said that when an elderly man dies, it is a sign of joy and mourning, and he should not cry in mourning...
Thank you all for your votes. There will be a new location tomorrow. I will add more to you next week. Thank you! ▄██●
