"But can you do it alone?" Grandma was worried.
Yan Mo pulled Si Ze over and said with a smile, "Don't worry, he'll help me. There will be no problem."
At home, it was basically Si Ze who was in charge of changing and washing their quilt covers. He was the only man she had ever met who could keep the bed in the room spotlessly clean and tidy.
"Okay." Grandma nodded. She was indeed relieved. The child's grandfather was from the army, so she naturally knew that making the bed was the most basic requirement in the army.
She returned to her room, found a set of clean quilt covers, went to Yan Mo's room, handed them to her, then turned and left the room, leaving time for the two young men.
"Leave it to you?" Yan Mo looked down at the quilt in his hand and asked him with his head tilted.
Si Ze had no objection: "Okay." As he said that, he walked forward and took the quilt cover from her hand, gently pushed her to sit on a stool beside her, and then walked to the bed, skillfully spread the blanket and changed the quilt cover.
"Grandma's aesthetic taste is... unique." Si Ze looked at the large red flowers that were seamlessly spread across the entire quilt and praised with a smile.
Yan Mo agreed: "That's right! In their generation, they loved this kind of thing." She was already used to sleeping like this.
After finishing, the two returned to the living room and chatted with their grandpa and parents. In this relaxed atmosphere, they happily bid farewell to New Year's Eve and welcomed the new year.
Early in the morning, Yan Mo and Si Ze got up early. After breakfast, grandpa planned to go to his sister's house to celebrate the New Year. Her mother would definitely go, and she had no requirements for Yan Mo and Si Ze.
Yan Mo himself doesn't like to join in the fun unless it is necessary.
"Grandpa, don't worry! We are two grown men, how can we not take care of ourselves? I promise to wait for you at home." Yan Mo patted his chest and promised.
Finally, after repeated instructions, Lao Mu finally left the house with peace of mind.
Looking at their departing backs, Yan Mo's eyes became brighter and brighter, and she excitedly grabbed Si Ze's arm beside her.
How could Si Ze not know her little thoughts? This girl has a temper! He didn't believe she would stay at home honestly. He reached out and gently tapped her forehead:
"Tell me! What do you want to do?"
His playing didn't hurt, and she didn't care. She opened her mouth and stated her purpose:
"I saw a plum blossom forest yesterday. It was so beautiful. I want to go and see it."
It would be a pity for her not to see such a beautiful scenery.
"Okay, but I'll accompany you wherever you want to go." Si Ze reached out and touched her silky black hair, saying with endless pampering.
After the agreement was made, the two of them quickly locked the door of his grandfather's house and got into the car in the yard. He quickly found the sea of plum blossoms relying solely on his memory of yesterday.
The plum blossoms here are like the sea, with no visible borders. They are composed of two colors: pure and noble white plums and pink and elegant plum blossoms. It seems like a glance that lasts for eternity. There is also that faint fragrance of plum blossoms, which I really love.
She and Si Ze walked in the plum blossom forest, one in front and one behind, enjoying the rare moment of tranquility.
Time passed little by little. When the sun was at its hottest and passed overhead, Yan Mo and Si Ze returned to their grandfather's house early for fear that their grandfather and his family would come back.
After that, in the next few days, whenever her grandfather and his family went out to celebrate the New Year, she and Si Ze would go somewhere to play. They stayed at her grandfather's house for a total of four days. During these four days, they went to see plum blossoms, caught fish, and observed magpies up close, etc.
Finally, on the fourth day, this happiest time came to an end, and Yan Mo and Si Ze got on the car back to Mo City.
After the car entered Mo City, Si Ze, who had been driving, asked:
"Momo, are you going with me, or waiting for me at home?"
Yan Mo yawned and stretched:
"Go ahead! I've been exhausted these past few days. I want to go back and rest first."
"Okay then! I'll take you there first, and then we'll go to Chaling Residential Area."
"Um."
Dozens of minutes later, Si Ze sent Yan Mo home. Seeing Yan Mo lying on the bed with his eyes closed, he felt relieved and picked up the car keys and went out again.
Hearing the door closing, Yan Mo opened her eyes, without a trace of sleepiness in them. The reason why she didn't want to join in was because on the phone, although Xiao Lin didn't explicitly say that she didn't want to go, she reminded her repeatedly that she wanted the three of them to get together in the new year.
Then she would go with him, but she couldn't do it. However, she didn't care. Since Xiao Lin's last illness, she would sometimes call Si Ze to comfort Xiao Lin.
It would be best to find the cause of her relapse. Only by knowing where the problem lies can the root cause be solved. Fortunately, although the cause has not been found, Yan Mo has felt a great improvement recently from her voice.
"Ring, ring, ring."
Suddenly, a phone call rang, interrupting Yan Mo's thoughts.
She took out her cell phone and when she saw who was calling, she was delighted and answered the call immediately.
"Happy New Year, sis."
The caller was Yan Jing, who had not been in contact for some time.
Yan Mo was happy: "Happy New Year, are you doing well in Jinzhou?"
"Very good, sister, I have good news for you." Yan Jing couldn't hide her excitement in her voice.
Hearing this, Yan Mo also became interested and waited for his sister's good news.
Yan Jing knew her sister was listening on the other end of the phone, and she excitedly told her the good news that had so excited her that she couldn't rest all night.
After listening to it, Yan Mo was also happy for his sister. In just a few months, his sister was able to get the opportunity to display her work. This was not only an opportunity, but also a greater affirmation of her by her mentor. It was really not hard to be shocked.
"Sister, are you free on March 28th? I have prepared two tickets for you and your brother-in-law. You can come and have a look together then." Yan Jing said expectantly.
"Okay." Yan Mo agreed without hesitation. What his sister needed most now was the recognition and support of her family. Most importantly, she wanted to take Tangtang with her. Not being able to see her mother for a long time would be bad for the child's physical and mental development.
Yan Jing was excited: "Then it's settled. You must come when the time comes."
"That will definitely happen." Yan Mo promised.
Afterwards, the two sisters talked about some recent events and Tangtang's recent situation.
After hanging up the phone, it was already evening. Aunt Li went back to her hometown and would not be back to work until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. She went to the kitchen. Since she was alone there, she cooked some noodles for dinner. She read a book on the balcony and then felt sleepy. In fact, she was not lying. She was really tired after traveling these days. She felt sleepy before she sat for long.
She knew that he would not be back so soon today, so she didn't plan to wait. She closed the book, got up, went back to her room and went to bed.
Chaling Vegetable Market.
Si Ze was carrying a large pile of vegetables and looked at his watch from time to time.
