The moment she saw Xue Chenglin, Sun Yuqi smiled, but when she looked at the people sitting around her, she didn't recognize them, nor did she see her grandfather.
"My cousin is here, but where's grandpa? Hasn't he come back yet?"
When Sun Yuqi came in, Xue Chenglin glanced at a middle-aged woman sitting next to him. When he heard Sun Yuqi asking about Grandpa Chen, he smiled.
"Your grandfather has something to do and can't come back for the time being."
Sun Yuqi was a little disappointed after hearing this, but she thought that the holiday was coming soon. At worst, she could take the children to Shenzhen to visit her grandfather. After parking her bicycle, Sun Yuqi walked over to her grandfather and sat down.
"Grandpa, isn't Jingran off work yet?"
Grandpa Mu's face was not very good. When he heard what Sun Yuqi said, he chuckled twice.
"He hasn't come back yet. I guess he has something going on at work. I asked your sister-in-law to go get the two kids. I think they'll be home soon."
What a coincidence! As soon as Grandpa Mu finished speaking, Qin Xiuzhi came back with the two brothers Mu Qingzhuo and Mu Qingzhou.
Shen Qingrou looked at her daughter with complicated eyes. She was eight years old when she left and gave her to a good friend to raise. At that time, she had no choice but to give up the child and go abroad. During these years abroad, she thought about her daughter all the time. She really regretted why she obeyed her parents' arrangements and why she didn't insist on keeping the child with her.
She had been back to China for some time. She first went back to Guangdong Province to visit her uncle and cousin. After some hesitation, she asked her cousin to take her back to Beijing to see the child. With the help of her cousin, they finally arrived at her son-in-law's grandfather's house. It turned out that they had lived in her grandfather's house after they got married.
Sun Yuqi did not fail to notice that the woman had been looking at her and seemed to be hesitant to speak. She had some guesses in her mind at this time. After observing after entering the yard, she also saw a sense of familiarity on that person's face. However, she was very calm in her heart. She had nothing to do with them anymore. Her surname was Sun.
Seeing the children come back, Sun Yuqi no longer paid attention to them, but took Mu Qingzhuo and pulled him into the house. She was not in the mood to entertain them, so she could only apologize to her uncle.
Xue Chenglin watched Sun Yuqi and the child enter the house, looked at his cousin Shen Qingrou helplessly, and sighed softly.
"See? I told you before, what you did back then hurt the child deeply. Now she doesn't want to acknowledge you, and you have no choice but to accept it. Originally, your uncle wouldn't let me bring you to Beijing, and he was almost killed because of it."
Shen Qingrou's eyes were also red. It had been twenty years since they last met. When she left, her child was only eight years old. In order to prevent the child from clamoring to follow her, she pretended nothing had happened and pretended to be finally relieved and left the child with her friend. But now, she looked at herself as if she didn't see her. She must have guessed who she was, but she just didn't intend to recognize her.
Grandpa Mu, Qin Xiuzhi and Grandma Mu just sat there without saying anything, but Mu Qingzhou ran into Sun Yuqi's room to play with his brother.
Sun Yuqi changed Mu Qingzhuo's dirty clothes that he had been wearing all day in the house and put on clean clothes for him. Then she sent the two brothers to play aside and took Mu Qingzhuo's dirty clothes to the well to wash them.
Sun Yuqi expressed her unwelcome towards them with her attitude. Shen Qingrou wanted to go up and talk to Sun Yuqi several times, but was stopped by Xue Chenglin. He really regretted it now. He really shouldn't have brought her to Beijing to find Yuqi. Look at Yuqi's attitude now. Even her cousin, with whom she had finally established a good relationship, seemed to dislike her.
In the end, Shen Qingrou was unable to say a word to Sun Yuqi. Sun Yuqi actually looked down on Shen Qingrou's innocent appearance. In addition to what she had experienced when she was young, she had no good feelings towards the Shen family. Anyway, she had no intention of recognizing the Shen family in her life.
Sun Yuqi remained silent until Xue Chenglin and Shen Qingrou left. Mu Qingzhuo also noticed that something was wrong with his mother. However, he was still young and never understood what was going on. He completely forgot about it while playing with Mu Qingzhou.
Lying on the bed after dinner in the evening, Mu Jingran hugged Sun Yuqi and whispered softly.
"Your attitude is that you don't want to recognize each other, just live your own lives and not bother each other?"
"Well, she was so cruel to abandon me back then, and now she's expressing her deep motherly love. Doesn't that sound fake? And that expression on her face, as if I've done something unforgivable and wronged her, makes me sick to my stomach. She's been so indecisive her whole life. Now that I think about it, from the time she married Gu Tingkai, to their divorce, to her final departure for overseas, she's always been listening to her parents. When has she ever made her own decisions? I really can't accept someone like that."
Mu Jingran laughed after hearing what Sun Yuqi said.
"Wife, you should know that your mother's personality is probably like this. Women of that era were almost all like this. They obeyed their parents or husbands in everything. Although there are exceptions, most people are still like this. Fortunately, you are not like her. You are a real man, capable of fighting on the battlefield. It is inseparable from the education you received since childhood."
When Sun Yuqi heard Mu Jingran say this, she smiled bitterly in her heart. She was so similar to Shen Qingrou in her first life. Or was it the experience in her second life that completely changed her temperament? Yes, if she had not changed in her second life, she probably would not have waited for the arrival of the retired veteran, and there would be no decisive and murderous self in this life. You have to know that once a person's temperament is formed, if you want to change it, it can only change after a huge change.
In the following few days, Shen Qingrou came three times. Every time, Sun Yuqi found an excuse to take the children to Grandpa Chen's house. In fact, she and Mu Jingran originally wanted to move to the Public Security Bureau's staff quarters, but then they thought that the hot summer was coming soon, so they decided to move to Grandpa Chen's yard, which was cooler there after all.
After two or three days of packing, he finally cleaned out the rooms he wanted to live in. Mu Qingzhuo was being taken care of by Qin Xiuzhi and his grandparents these days. When he returned home, Sun Yuqi told them about her plan.
Grandpa Mu and Grandma Mu also knew Sun Yuqi's plan at this time. After all, that person came every day, and Sun Yuqi was probably tired of it. She wanted to go out and hide for a while, so they agreed without saying anything.
That night, Mu Jingran and Sun Yuqi rode their bicycles, took some clothes and moved to Grandpa Chen's yard.
