"Sister, you've finally finished your work, can't you rest at home for a day?" Wen Wan came over, took the dishes from her hand and put them in the sink.
Then she put her hair up and helped her wash vegetables in the kitchen.
"The latest dish I learned is very light and refreshing. When I have almost finished learning it, I will call Xiao Chen to eat with us." Wen Yi had a smile on her face.
"No wonder you care so much about it." Wen Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"I remember you used to hate cooking. You said, 'Isn't it good to be a lady who has everything handed to her? Why do you have to push yourself? Why have you changed now?"
"It's different now than it was before." Wen Wan sighed, raised her head, and said quietly, "People always change."
"You are so nice to Xiao Chen. I, his biological sister, am not as lucky as him." Wen Wan smiled.
"Can you tell me why?"
"Why?" Wen Yi stopped washing the vegetables.
She was lost in thought and muttered, "I don't know why. If you must ask why, it's because he's about the same age as the child, right?"
"When I see him, I think of my child. I couldn't give him motherly love, so I want to make up for it with Xiao Chen."
"Is this the only reason? Are there any other reasons?" Wen Wan asked.
"No, apart from this, I really can't think of any other reason." Wen Yi shook her head gently.
Then she looked at Wen Wan in confusion: "Why do you ask this?"
"Sister, if, I say if, Xiao Chen is your child, would you be very happy?" Wen Wan has been paying attention to the changes in Wen Yi's expression.
"What if?" Wen Wan was lost in thought. She murmured, "How can there be so many what ifs in this world?"
"Sister, can't you be a little more romantic? Everyone likes Xiao Chen."
Wen Yi said, "Just imagine him as him, okay?"
"How wonderful it would be if he really was my child?" Wen Yi shook her head. She felt that she was delusional.
She lowered her head and continued washing the vegetables.
"Okay, I understand." Wen Wan nodded gently: "I have important news to tell you."
"What important news?" Wen Yi asked.
"A surprise, it's big news for you." Wen Wan kept it a secret.
"What would be considered a surprise to me?" Wen Yi sighed: "Is it that Xiao Gucheng no longer blames me? Or... that the lost child has returned on his own?"
"My sister, I really don't know when you developed this old-fashioned temperament?" Wen Wan was speechless.
She put down what she was holding and said solemnly, "Your child has been found."
"What?" Wen Wan was holding a plate in her hand and hadn't reacted yet.
"I said, your child has been found." Wen Wan repeated what she had just said.
Bang... The plate in Wen Wan's hand fell heavily to the ground. She was shocked and looked at Wen Wan in disbelief.
"Hey, don't be so excited. Are you hurt?" Wen Wan quickly pulled her away.
"What did you say just now? The child was found?" Wen Yi didn't care about anything else. She held her sister's shoulders tightly.
"Yes, I found him, and he has been by your side all this time." Wen Wan held her hand and said seriously.
"Xiao Chen is the son of you and Xiao Gucheng."
Tears welled up in Wen Yi's eyes. Her eyes were red and her voice was hoarse: "Say it again, Xiao Chen...he is my son?"
"Sister, don't get excited. I didn't dare to tell you before because I was afraid that you would be emotionally unstable and something would happen next time."
Wen Wan quickly embraced her: "Dad and I already knew and confirmed his identity."
"Because you were sick, I didn't dare tell you. Now the time is ripe, so you and your son should recognize each other."
Wen Yi slowly squatted down, tears falling uncontrollably.
She put her finger in her mouth and bit it until a bleeding mark was left on it.
The intense pain made her unusually clear-headed, and she believed that this was real, that all of this was true.
She cried in a low voice: "Is this true? He, he is my son?"
"Sister, it's true, it's all true. I've confirmed it with Dad." Wen Wan squatted down, hugged her, and couldn't stop crying.
"He's the child we've been looking for for eighteen years. After I learned his identity, I immediately went to learn about his past."
"He has been living with his grandmother for many years. Although they live in poverty, the old lady has never let him suffer any injustice."
"And he's very good. Although he's still a child, his achievements have reached heights that countless people look up to."
"Really? Is this true?" Wen Yi didn't know what to say anymore. She kept repeating these words.
Even though everything before her eyes was so real, she still couldn't believe it was true.
Because she was afraid that if she opened her eyes, she would find that it was all just a dream.
"Sister, Xiao Chen is here. He's outside." Wen Wan helped her up: "Go hug him and touch him. You and your son have suffered so much over the years."
"Is he here yet? I, I look so ugly like this." Wen Yi quickly tidied up her messy hair.
Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she was a little anxious: "How can I face people like this? What should I do?"
"Alright, sister. A son never thinks his mother is ugly. This is the first time you two have met each other. You look more beautiful than ever before."
With her encouragement, Wen Yi had no choice but to nod hesitantly, then helped her stand up.
The doorbell of the villa rang, and Wen Yi was obviously a little panicked.
She didn't even dare to open the door. She was really afraid that the moment she opened the door, she would wake up from her sleep again.
By then, it will be all in vain.
Because she had experienced such scenes countless times in her dreams.
"Go and open the door." Wen Wan encouraged her.
She walked hesitantly to the door and opened it gently.
The moment she opened the door, she felt as if she was nailed to the spot, unable to move at all.
I saw Xiao Chen standing at the door, with his father following behind him.
The Xiao Chen in front of him looked both familiar and unfamiliar.
Elder Wen stepped forward, his voice trembling a little: "Wen Yi, the child is back."
"Look, this is the child. He has grown so tall."
Wen Yi stared at Xiao Chen blankly, not daring to look away for a moment.
She was afraid that if she left no one behind, Xiao Chen would disappear again like before.
Xiao Chen looked at Wen Yi in front of him, his throat rolling, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Call mom quickly." Wen Wan on the side stomped her feet anxiously.
It took these two people more than ten years to find each other.
But when the two sides really met, they didn't know what to say.
Xiao Chen took two steps forward, hesitated for a moment, and called out softly, "Mom."
