Villa in the middle of Xiangjiang.
Tang Jinglin put on his suit and tie, combed his hair in front of the mirror, and prepared to go downstairs for breakfast. He would have to meet a big client later and couldn't be late.
"Xiulian, do you have a headache again?"
Tang Jinglin saw his wife pressing her temples again, and walked to the bed with concern to massage her.
Mu Xiulian didn't get out of bed. She was wearing pajamas and looking at a photo album.
She was well-maintained. She was in her forties and looked to be in her early thirties, but her complexion was not very good. When she came across the sea seventeen years ago, she was still in confinement and suffered from cold and migraine. confinement disease.
There are photos of a little baby in the album. It looks like he was just born, maybe one month old at most. He is a white and tender little dumpling. He is wearing silk clothes. At first glance, he looks like a child from a wealthy family.
Tang Jinglin sighed lightly, knowing that his wife was missing their little daughter.
"Next month is Nian Nian's birthday. It's been seventeen years, Jing Lin. I don't know what Nian Nian looks like anymore?" Mu Xiulian murmured to herself, with tears in her eyes.
When her daughter was separated from her, she was so young that it was as if a piece of flesh had been cut out of her heart. Over the past seventeen years, she has missed her daughter all the time, and she was also her daughter in her dreams.
But the daughter in the dream still looks like a child, and sometimes she grows up, but her face is blurry and she can't see clearly what she looks like.
"Jing Lin, I dreamed about Nian Nian yesterday. She has grown up, but I still can't see her face clearly and she doesn't call me. She must be complaining about me!"
Mu Xiulian shed tears. She missed her daughter so much that she went crazy.
"No, if you want to blame, you blame me. I was the one who sent Nian Nian away!"
Tang Jinglin held his wife in his arms and patted her gently to comfort her, with tears in his eyes.
In fact, he also misses his daughter, but he is the head of the family and cannot show the tenderness in his heart. Only in the dead of night will he shed tears looking at the photo of his daughter in his study.
"I don't blame you. In that situation, sending Nian Nian away was the only way. I just blame being born at the wrong time. I just hope that our family can be reunited in my lifetime. I heard Nian Nian call me mom and your dad. !”
"This day will come. I heard people say that there is a lot of looseness in the inland area. It should be soon!"
"Really? I'm afraid it'll be in vain again!"
"No, it's true this time. If the inland economy is to develop now, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait will definitely be connected to each other, and our family will definitely be reunited!"
The couple comforted each other. They had been doing this for the past seventeen years.
"I am trying to find a quota for the Canton Fair. Although it is held in Yangcheng, companies from Shanghai and Zhejiang Province will participate. Maybe I will meet acquaintances and ask about the situation in Tangcun."
Tang Jinglin has already thought of a way. He has applied for the Canton Fair before, but failed every year. He hopes to pass this year.
Mu Xiulian nodded and felt much better.
"Dad, Mom, there is a gentleman named Du Yilun, who said he came from Shanghai and has an important message for you!"
Tang Jinglin's eldest son Tang Changchuan knocked on the door and came in. He is 22 years old, tall and tall, looks like his father, and has a very similar personality. He is very stable. He has graduated from college and works in a company.
"Du Yilun from Shanghai? This name is very unfamiliar."
Tang Jinglin frowned, not wanting to see him too much.
Many people in Xiangjiang knew that his daughter was staying in the interior and that he was inquiring about her daughter, so many people from the interior would use this reason to approach him.
In the past, he went to meet with great joy, but in the end his joy was in vain. These people didn't know the news about Nian Nian at all, they just wanted to get benefits from him.
Tang Jinglin thought that Du Yilun was also such a person. He was not sad about money, but he really didn't want to be happy anymore. It hurt more than a knife in his heart.
"Ask him to wait a moment, I'll get down right away."
Tang Jinglin decided to meet him anyway. What if there was really news about his daughter?
I would rather be stabbed countless times than miss the news about my daughter.
Tang Changchuan went downstairs, and Du Yilun was sitting in the living room, with his back straight and his hands on his knees, a little embarrassed.
He just arrived in Xiangjiang yesterday. Thanks to Ma San, who was introduced by Shen Xiao, although he received a lot of money, there were no dangers along the way and he arrived in Xiangjiang safely. He also encountered a marine policeman on the way. Du Yilun saw with his own eyes that there were Several people crossing the sea were arrested by the marine police.
He also saw another boat. In order to avoid being pursued by the marine police, he threw all the people on the boat into the sea and ran for his life.
Du Yilun was still scared until he reached the shore of Xiangjiang River, and he was even more grateful that he had met a noble person, otherwise he might have died in the sea.
He had already found his uncle in Xiangjiang yesterday, and he also knew that the uncle had not stopped the remittance. He guessed that if he didn't get it, someone should have intercepted it, and the purpose was to force him to death.
Du Yilun settled down at his uncle's house and had the most peaceful sleep in years. He couldn't wait to come to Tang's house at dawn.
Miss Tang was so kind to him that he had to bring the message to Tang Jinglin and his wife in person without any mistakes.
Tang Changchuan and Du Yilun chatted for a while, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Fortunately, Tang Jinglin came downstairs. Behind him was Mu Xiulian, who was very beautiful in a dark green cheongsam with light makeup.
Du Yilun looked up and saw Mu Xiulian at first sight, and couldn't help blurting out: "You mother and daughter look so alike."
In fact, Tang Niannian and Mu Xiulian are not particularly similar. She is more like a grandma, but the biological mother and daughter are somewhat similar after all. However, Mu Xiulian has a gentle temperament, but Tang Niannian is cold and cold. At first glance, I think they are very similar. After a closer look, Finally, it’s not too similar.
Tang Jinglin was still on the stairs. He almost fell down when he heard this. Mu Xiulian couldn't stand anymore and asked urgently: "Have you seen my daughter?"
"Yes, I am here to carry a message for Miss Tang Niannian."
Du Yilun nodded, now even Tang Changchuan was not calm anymore.
Seventeen years ago, he was five years old and already sensible. He even hugged his little sister.
"Mr. Du, have you really seen my sister? How is she now?" Tang Changchuan was anxious and grabbed Du Yilun's hand, his voice was much higher than usual.
"Little sister has been found? Where is she?"
Tang Changfeng, who was standing on the second floor, was so happy that he slipped down the stairs. He was Tang Niannian's second brother. He was 20 years old and still in college.
Unlike the stability of his elder brother, he is lively and likes to sing. He also formed a band in school. The dream is to become a rock superstar, but he dare not say it, fearing that he was beaten by Tang Jinglin.
The whole family gathered around Du Yilun, staring at him with fiery eyes.
Du Yilun swallowed nervously and said: "I arrived yesterday. Tang Niannian was my savior. She bought my house and introduced reliable people to help me cross the sea. Thanks to Miss Tang and her partner Shen Sir, only then can I come here safely.”
"Nian Nian has a partner? She is only seventeen years old!"
Mu Xiulian's voice was shrill. Her daughter was only seventeen years old, how could she fall in love?
Seventeen years old should go to school!
