When Shi Ning heard Shi Guoqiang sneeze, he asked worriedly, "Dad, are you okay?"
"It's okay, maybe Shi Guogang was scolding me." Shi Guoqiang said, and sneezed twice more.
Shi Ning chuckled, "Maybe someone is thinking about Dad."
Shi Ning's soft tone made Shi Guoqiang's fatherly love overflow, "It must be your mother who is thinking about me and talking about this idiot like me."
Speaking of his mother, Shi Ning was very curious about her.
"Mom, what kind of person is she?"
Shi Ning was deeply impressed by his mother, but not by her appearance.
Because when she was a child, she often heard Tao Bichun say bad things about her mother, saying that her father had cheated on her, and that her father didn't like her mother, so he didn't like her either.
She is not allowed to mention her mother, and if she does, she will say that she doesn't like her mother and react very strongly.
Over time, Shi Guoqiang rarely mentioned his mother in front of her, and even put away the photos.
Thinking about this, Shi Ning felt sad. He didn't know how much he had missed with his father over the years.
Speaking of his wife, Shi Guoqiang softened. "Your mother is very beautiful, very gentle, very smart, and very..."
When praising his wife, Shi Guoqiang never repeated a single word.
Shi Ning didn't interrupt and just listened quietly.
From the lines of Shi Guoqiang's writing, one seems to see a smart, beautiful, gentle, kind, healthy and positive woman.
Just like the women in New Year pictures of that era.
Shi Ning was a little sad, "My mother died because she gave birth to me."
Shi Guoqiang was afraid that she would feel guilty, "Don't think like that, your mother loves you very much, she risked her life to give birth to you."
"You are the fruit of our love, you are the continuation of her life. Otherwise, if she is gone, there will be no one but me who cares about her."
Shi Ning suddenly remembered, "Doesn't my mother have a family? I don't even have uncles, grandparents."
I haven't heard of this since I was a kid.
Shi Guoqiang sighed, "A fire a few years ago killed everyone in the family except your mother."
Shi Ning felt a little sad.
He chatted with Shi Guoqiang about his mother for a while, and then repeatedly reminded him not to be soft-hearted towards Old Lady Shi.
Only then did Shi Ning hang up the phone.
After a while.
Shi Guoqiang sent Shi Ning a photo of his mother.
The photo is in black and white, and being able to take photos was a great thing in that era.
The woman in the photo is wearing the unique outfit of that era and has a sunny and particularly contagious smile.
Beautiful, kind, strong woman.
"I look quite similar to my mother." Shi Ning saved the photo in a good mood.
Then share the photos in Mu Tiantian and Tang Ruozhu’s small group.
【Ning: This is my mother.】
Mu Tiantian started a group video.
As soon as the video was connected, Mu Tiantian looked at Shi Ning on the screen and said, "Your mother is so beautiful. You look a lot like her."
Tang Ruozhu was slow to answer the call and first called Shi Ning, "Benefactor."
Then he praised the photo, "The benefactor's mother is beautiful, and the benefactor is even more beautiful."
Finally, she called out to Mu Tiantian, "Sister Tiantian."
Mu Tiantian looked at Tang Ruozhu's dazed yet serious expression and snorted twice, "Calling me at the end makes me seem redundant."
Tang Ruozhu blinked, "Oh."
Mu Tiantian: ...
This stupid goose, how can it be so stupid.
Shi Ning laughed. It was really interesting to have these two friends.
Mu Tiantian: "Ningning baby, Dai'e, let's go shopping together. We have a new bag."
Shi Ning also felt that it was okay, so he nodded and agreed, "Okay, let's go to the mall we often go to."
Tang Ruozhu was puzzled. "I'm not even in China. How can I go shopping with you guys? Am I out of my mind?"
She was silent for a moment, then said seriously, "Although it can be done, it's a bit difficult, especially since we're traveling across borders. I might not be able to get to you this afternoon."
She thought seriously about whether she could teleport to her benefactor by leaving her body.
I am really considering the possibility of out-of-body experience.
Shi Ning and Mu Tiantian looked at Tang Ruozhu, who had a thoughtful look on his face, and even looked ready for what to do next.
They were completely stunned.
Out-of-body experience?
What a niche word.
Mu Tiantian quickly said, "It's cloud shopping, not soul shopping."
Tang Ruozhu felt that there was no difference. "Can I ask a little ghost to go shopping with you guys instead of me?"
Astral travel is too dangerous and not very feasible.
Shi Ning and Mu Tiantian were suddenly horrified, and then they looked at their own room and felt even more horrified.
It felt like there was really a ghost floating around me.
Mu Tiantian rubbed her arms and said, "Okay, stop talking."
Shi Ning: "Withdraw, pretend you didn't see it."
Tang Ruozhu:...
She comforted them seriously, "Don't be afraid, I'm inviting cowards who are not only afraid of people but also afraid of ghosts. I really want to accompany you on a cloud shopping trip."
Tang Ruozhu, "If my benefactor needs me, I will go through fire and water to make it happen!"
Shi Ning raised his hand and crossed it out with a serious expression, "I refuse, and I refuse to invite Xiaogui even more."
Mu Tiantian was amused by Tang Ruozhu's serious words and laughed so hard that tears came out.
"Hahaha, Ningning, where did you rescue this little clown? He's so adorable! I want to rescue one too, hahaha..."
Tang Ruozhu opened her eyes wide and stared at Mu Tiantian blankly, "...please stop laughing a little, or you might choke on your own saliva."
"Haha, no... cough cough." Mu Tiantian started coughing violently.
Tang Ruozhu looked like she was saying, "See, you didn't listen to me and you choked."
Looks very cute and adorable.
Shi Ning saw that Mu Tiantian was choking and tears were coming out, and he smiled gently.
Tang Ruozhu looked at Shi Ning's white and tender neck and frowned, "My benefactor doesn't like the jade pendant I gave him."
"No." Shi Ning said quickly.
Tang Ruozhu curled her lips, "But my benefactor has never worn it once. My benefactor must wear it on his body and wear it all the time."
Shi Ning, "You gave it to me. I was afraid of losing it, so I kept it."
"Please wear it, your benefactor. It will bring you good luck and protect you at critical moments."
That was given to her by her master.
Tang Ruozhu insisted, "If my benefactor doesn't wear it, I'll ask the little ghost..."
When Shi Ning heard this, he quickly said, "I'll wear it. I'll put it on right away. Don't ask for help."
She turned around and quickly went to the safe to take out the jade pendant and hung it around her neck.
The jade quality is not particularly high-quality, but the design is very unique. It is only half a piece, with half an eight-pointed star in the middle.
The uniquely designed jade pendant looks particularly beautiful when worn around Shi Ning's neck.
After seeing this, Tang Ruozhu was finally satisfied. "Good benefactor, I still want to go shopping with you. If you don't like cowards, then crybabies..."
