In order to stimulate her willpower, Xiao Guo said a lot and revealed a lot of information unconsciously, which made Yu Ling, who followed secretly, feel as if she had lost her soul. She was in a trance and subconsciously wanted to stand up and ask for clarification.
But reason held her back and told her not to be so impulsive.
How should she accept the news that her mother is dying?
At this moment, she covered her mouth, not daring to make any sound to startle the two of them. Then she hurried ahead of them, stumbling out.
For some reason, she didn't want to face this problem directly, nor did she want to break the smile on her mother's face. So before her brain could give a response, her body gave the answer first.
She should have thought of it earlier, she should have thought of it earlier...
Abnormal expression, terrible cough, pale cheeks, and gradually thinner figure...
She really should have noticed earlier.
Yu Ling fanned herself in self-blame, crying as she fanned herself. The more she cried, the more she fanned herself, until she heard a sound from outside, and then she reluctantly stopped.
Knowing that she was not in the right mental state to appear in front of her mother at the moment, Yu Ling forced herself to hold on to the last bit of her rationality and sneaked out of the window.
After Zhao Yuyan separated from Xiaoguo, she quietly put down the shovel, then went into the house as if nothing had happened, calling Yuling with a smile on her face, but she couldn't find her after searching around. She couldn't help but wonder, did she go to fetch water again?
On the other side, Yu Ling ran out and wanted to find Xiao Guo to find out what was going on, but when she was about to catch up with her, she suddenly stopped.
Didn't mom not tell her because she didn't want her to know? Did she have to point it out to her?
But if I don’t ask clearly, what if I heard it wrong?
Thinking of this, Yu Ling was a little hesitant. She was torn between whether or not to ask for clarification. Finally, she decided to ask for clarification. If things had become a fact that could not be changed, then she could not just hide away in confusion.
"lady!"
Yuling wiped her tears firmly, ran forward, calling Xiaoguo as she ran.
Xiao Guo stopped walking when she heard Yu Ling's voice, turned around and saw that it was really him, "Yu Ling?"
Yu Ling ran over panting, with her wet hair sticking to her forehead.
When Xiaoguo saw her like this, he subconsciously thought that she was out looking for Zhao Yuyan, and was anxious because she didn't find her, so he quickly said, "Your mother has already gone home."
In order to make it sound more satisfactory, Xiao Guo also made up a reason, "I just ran into her on the way. Your manager asked her to go to work. But don't worry, I have asked your mother to go back. You should go back as well."
When Yu Ling heard this, tears welled up in her eyes again.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Ma'am, tell me the truth. I know everything."
"What do you know?"
Xiaoguo's heart skipped a beat, but he pretended not to understand what she said.
"I followed you to the back hill and heard everything..."
Xiao Guo frowned when she heard this, and thought carefully about what she had said, "You know everything?"
Yu Ling nodded tearfully, "I know, I know everything."
After saying this, he burst into tears.
Xiao Guo patted her helplessly and consoled her, "Yuling, your mother is really great. I admire her very much in my heart."
Yu Ling nodded while crying, sobbing and acknowledging, "Yes, my mother is also a great person in my heart!"
"But...but I don't want her to leave me. Why would she leave me? It would be so nice if she could stay with me forever and be together forever!"
"Yuling, in this world, no one will stay with you forever. Everyone will reach the end of their lives one day. Moreover, death is not a true farewell, but forgetfulness. As long as your mother is still in your heart, she will always be by your side. It doesn't matter if you don't meet her."
Yu Ling slowly wiped away her tears as she heard her voice, and looked at her with tearful eyes, "Is it true?"
"Of course!" Xiao Guo nodded heavily, wiped her tears, and continued, "Your mother just went to the next world a step ahead of time to set up a new home for you."
"Then in the next life, can I still be your mother's child?"
"Of course!!"
Death is not the loss of life, it is just the departure from time. The living are just passers-by, and the dead are the deceased.
If birth into this world is a definite journey, then death is merely the departure for another.
So, don’t be afraid, don’t be sad, your deceased relatives and friends, they have not left, they have just changed into a super cool stealth skill and are guarding you.
After hearing this, Yu Ling stopped struggling and wiped the tears from her face vigorously, saying firmly, "Madam, thank you!"
Xiao Guo rubbed her head and said softly, "It's okay, go back and spend more time with your mother. If the manager asks you to do something again, just ignore him. I'll take care of it."
"Also, have a good rest. In a few days, you and your daughter will leave this island with me and start a new life outside."
"Uh-huh!"
Yu Ling smiled and nodded, waved goodbye to the other party, but suddenly ran back, "Madam, please don't tell my mother about what I know. I don't want her to worry."
Xiao Guo was stunned after hearing this, then smiled and nodded, "Got it, I won't tell!"
As he said this, he made a gesture of covering his mouth.
When Yu Ling saw this, she blushed and smiled. After giving the instructions, she ran home with peace of mind. What the lady said was right, she should cherish the present.
Xiaoguo was frightened by her running so fast that one step was too deep and the other was too shallow. Finally, after seeing her run away safely, he began to laugh.
The daughter and her mother are indeed cut from the same cloth.
Zhao Yuyan asked her not to tell Yuling about her illness, and Yuling also asked her not to tell Zhao Yuyan that she already knew about it. They kept secrets from each other, but in fact their love was deeper than the other.
–
Xiaoguo felt relieved because she had finally gotten over the heavy burden on her shoulders. Seeing her like this, Jiang Shanhe was happy for her, but he had to remind someone.
Jiang Shanhe turned over, lying on his side and looked at Xiaoguo, "Very happy?"
“I’m so happy!”
Xiaoguo put her hands behind her head, and the apple cheeks on her face were stretched to her forehead from smiling.
"But someone seems to have forgotten one thing."
"Who?"
Xiao Guo didn't listen carefully, but then he realized that the person he was referring to was actually him. He became interested and sat up, looking at him and asked, "Me? What did you forget?"
"Excuse me, madam, how would you like to place Zhao Yuyan and her daughter? Where would you like to place them?"
"Hey~ Of course I have a plan. Do you think I am the kind of person who gets carried away and doesn't care about the consequences?"
Xiaoguo was wondering what the matter was. It was just this matter. She had already thought about it. Since Zhao Yuyan had handed Yu Ling over to her, she would definitely think about where she would go.
Her own cows are about to produce milk, and she wants to rent a store to sell pure milk, milk tea, and dairy desserts. She cannot handle it all by herself, so if Yuling is willing, she can come with her.
As for Zhao Yuyan's physical condition, she knew that she couldn't hold on for too long. When the time came, she would help Yuling and take care of Zhao Yuyan's funeral.
I had thought about being a hands-off manager a long time ago, handing over the business directly to Su Changsheng, providing the milk and formula myself, and letting him take care of the rest.
But after all, she is working with others, and small frictions are inevitable. It is better for her to set up a stall of her own. She has nothing to do anyway, so it is nice to have something to keep her busy.
Furthermore, she could still cooperate with Su Changsheng. She didn't have a big appetite, so she could just open a small shop in Yonghai County. This way, she could accompany Zhuangzhuang to study and still have something to do.
If Su Changsheng agrees, he can still provide the formula and milk and let him develop elsewhere.
