Fu Qingyu was about to move his legs, but he reluctantly pulled them back: "I'm going back to the room to wash up first."
"Okay." Sister Ting took the empty bowl.
Fu Qingyu had just left, and Chao Feng followed him in. When he saw Fu Qingyu walking towards the bedroom, he raised his eyebrows in confusion: "What's going on? Didn't I say I would stay with Sister Xiao Xiao? How to go there? Gone to my room!"
Sister Ting looked at him in surprise: "What's wrong? Mr. Fu just came back and asked Xiao Xiao. When you came in, you said he should go to Xiao Xiao's room. What happened to Xiao Xiao?"
Chao Feng shrugged: "I don't know either, but it seems that Sister Xiao Xiao is in a bad mood. I said Master Fu should go to accompany her, but he refused to go."
at this time.
Xiao Xiao was sitting on the bed in the room, and Uncle Chen was sitting on the sofa. She tried her best to control the situation, handed Uncle Chen a cup of tea, and asked with concern: "Uncle Chen, have you been in a better mood these two days? I didn't have time to visit you yesterday. .”
"It's okay, I'm okay." Uncle Chen smiled and shook his head. He held the tea but didn't drink it. He just looked at her distressedly.
The worry and heartache in those eyes were as scorching as a torch, making Xiao Xiao's nose ache and her eyes turn red.
Uncle Chen patted the sofa next to him: "Come on, Xiao Xiao, sit here. If you have anything to do, tell Uncle Chen slowly."
In his heart, after experiencing so many things, Xiao Xiao was almost like her biological daughter. He didn't want Xiao Xiao to be unhappy at all.
Having already lost one granddaughter, he loves the remaining granddaughter even more.
Xiao Xiao didn't want to say more, but this kind of concern from her elders made it difficult for her to refuse.
She took a deep breath, sat down next to Uncle Chen obediently, and sipped the hot tea to herself.
"What happened?" Uncle Chen asked softly.
When Xiao Xiao came back just now, he just came out of the room and saw that Xiao Xiao's face was pale and something was particularly wrong. He was worried and followed him in.
He is an elder again, Xiao Xiao will not let him go.
But now that everyone was sitting down, Xiao Xiao didn't want to hide anything from him, so she told him the whole story.
She didn't mention a word about how much pressure the huge surgery fee put on her when she found out Yang Min was sick, and how she was faced with the gap between selling the house she had just paid the down payment for and subletting it to a messy apartment.
And how she felt later when she found out that Yang Min didn't want her for money, she tried to speak calmly, but her trembling voice still betrayed her.
"Xiao Xiao, what do you think when you see her again?" Uncle Chen asked the key point.
Xiao Xiao's heart was in a mess, and it was like two villains were born in her head. One of them was saying: She no longer wants you for money. You two have already cleared up and have no relationship.
One is saying: Everyone has their own obsessions sometimes, and she is indeed kind to you in giving birth. When you were sick and had a fever when you were a child, she took care of you while going to work. You didn't know how hard it was without personal help.
Xiao Xiao remembered that when she was a child, she secretly vowed to take good care of her mother.
But she doesn't seem to be able to do it...
In fact, to a certain extent, she is also incapable.
Uncle Chen saw that she was looking at the tea in a daze, and the sadness in her brows was almost overflowing. He quickly waved his hand in front of her and said softly: "Xiao Xiao, are you blaming yourself?"
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao raised her eyes in shock, her eyes filled with tears: "How do you know?"
"Silly child." Uncle Chen patted her distressedly: "I've known for a long time what kind of person you are. You are a very kind and soft-hearted person. No matter what happens, you are always subconsciously harsh on yourself. But this time, it's really not you. 's fault."
After all, he was an old man, and his words seemed to have a certain warmth, which could silently comfort Xiao Xiao's depressed mood.
"I know how harsh society is to a single mother today, but since she decided to give birth to you, it means that she should take responsibility for it. No matter what kind of suffering she suffers, it is her own choice. As a A child has no right to choose. You can feel sorry for her and try to help her, but if she doesn't want you first, you don't have to blame yourself."
As he said that, Uncle Chen turned to hold her hand and said earnestly: "At your age, you have tried your best and are much more sensible than other children. Your mother is a blessing in disguise. No matter what kind of retribution you are getting now, it is all She deserves it."
Xiao Xiao's eyes were hot, firstly because of Uncle Chen's attitude of thinking about her, and secondly because of his entanglement with his mother.
No matter what, Yang Min is her biological mother, so she can let go of it all at once.
Seeing her delay in speaking, Uncle Chen sighed almost inaudibly. As if he guessed what she was thinking, he said calmly: "But, then again, the human heart is made of flesh. You can't let go of your mother." It's human nature, if you really feel uneasy and decide to help her, that's fine, but you have so much money, can you help her pay off her gambling debt?"
Xiao Xiao shook his head: "I didn't, so I didn't want to help her."
As she said that, she took a deep breath, her eyes were red, but her tone was cold: "Don't worry, I can carry it clearly, but I can't get out for a while. What happens to her has nothing to do with me, and I won't refute my original intention." if."
If she is really bad and something happens to her, Xiao Xiao will only help her collect her body.
"Okay." Uncle Chen nodded: "You have the guts, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out."
"Thank you." Xiao Xiao stood up and rubbed his hot eyes: "I feel much better after telling you. Thank you for listening to my heart-to-heart talk."
"You're welcome. Call me if you need anything. I won't disturb your rest." Uncle Chen stood up and patted her shoulder: "Don't keep it in your heart if you have anything. There are many people in this family who care about you."
Xiao Xiao nodded and was about to close the door after seeing Uncle Chen off.
Suddenly, a big hand came out and was caught between the cracks in the door.
"Wait a moment."
It was Fu Qingyu's voice.
Xiao Xiao quickly let go of his hand, fearing that the door would pinch Fu Qingyu's hand. Fu Qingyu's big hand opened the door with force, turned sideways and walked in.
"Why haven't you rested yet?" Xiao Xiao took two steps inside, picked up the tissue on the bedside table, and wiped the corners of his eyes.
Fu Qingyu stood behind her, not too presumptuously asking: "Did you just take a shower?"
"No, I'm just bringing tea to Uncle Chen." Xiao Xiao pointed to the tea on the coffee table, walked out again, and poured her a cup: "Do you want a drink?"
Fu Qingyu came over and reached out to take her tea cup: "No need to work, I just came over to see if you are feeling better."
Originally, he planned to go back to his room to rest, but he never felt sleepy. He came out specially to wait for Uncle Chen to come out before he came to see her.
Xiao Xiao slowly raised his eyes, just in time to meet his lowered dark eyes. The dark light under his eyes flickered faintly, like a poisonous gem, exuding a gentle aura.
