Jiang Li lives in Runjiang Garden.
An ordinary community.
"Aunt Zhao, you're back from buying groceries."
"It's Xiaoli. The little guy is getting more and more handsome."
"Uncle Li, you're working out again, be careful not to hurt your back!"
"You kid, you're talking nonsense here. Why don't you come to my house to play tomorrow when you have a day off? My granddaughter is always talking about you."
Jiang Li greeted the neighbors with a smile, his fair and handsome face full of friendliness.
The neighbors all like Jiang Li very much. He is handsome and polite. Which elder would not like him?
"Xiao Li is a good kid, but his grades are a little low. I'm afraid he won't achieve much in the future."
"It's okay if my grades are just barely there. Most people in this world are ordinary people. It's enough for me to live a stable life."
"If you ask me, it's because his parents were irresponsible and abandoned Xiao Li when he was ten years old. Thanks to his aunt who raised him, otherwise, he might have become a gangster."
"Who says it's not true? Aunt Jiang Li is really good to him. She's such a pretty girl, she won't marry anyone and will take him with her."
The neighbors looked at Jiang Li's back with a smile and whispered to each other that Jiang Li and his aunt Mu Qingxue had always been the focus of attention of the neighborhood grandpa and aunties. One was handsome and the other was beautiful. If they didn't know their relationship, others would easily mistake them for siblings, or even a couple.
"Aunt, I'm back!" Jiang Li put on slippers, quickly threw his schoolbag onto the sofa, and shouted into the room.
This is an ordinary two-bedroom, one-living room apartment. It is not big, but very warm. There is a pot of daisies at the door, adding a touch of brightness to the room.
"Hey, isn't my aunt back yet? She should be off work by this time."
There was no response from the room for a long time, and Jiang Li was a little confused.
Aunt Mu Qingxue is the person closest to Jiang Li. She has been taking care of Jiang Li since she was ten years old. Therefore, the two have a very good relationship and can even be said to depend on each other.
Mu Qingxue works as a handyman in a tofu shop. She is extremely beautiful and is known as the Tofu Xishi. However, she has an extremely cold personality and only smiles at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li pushed open his aunt's bedroom door and was stunned. He saw that the bedroom, which was originally a little crowded, had become empty. Even his aunt's favorite pot of sunflowers was gone.
"Auntie!"
Jiang Li's voice trembled a little, but it was louder than before.
No one answered.
He rubbed his eyes frantically, trying to wake up from this 'hallucination', but even though his eyes were red and tears were rubbed out, the 'hallucination' still did not dissipate.
The letter on the desk told him——
Everything is true.
Aunt, she's really gone.
Just like his parents, he left a letter and left.
Jiang Li panicked, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and he couldn't breathe.
The same scene happened eight years ago.
That time, his parents disappeared from his life forever. It was also at that time that his aunt appeared and began to take care of him when he was only ten years old.
And now, the aunt who had depended on him for everything suddenly disappeared. After eight years, Jiang Li once again experienced the pain of a heart twitching.
“Aunt!!”
Jiang Li's tears welled up in his eyes, but he tried hard not to let them fall. He felt completely distraught.
"Xiao Jiangli, just call me Auntie. From now on, I will take care of you!"
remember.
The pretty and beautiful girl's smile warmed his entire youth.
From the age of ten to eighteen, a full eight years of companionship, no one knew how important his aunt was in his heart. From a child to the teenager he is today, Mu Qingxue meant something special to Jiang Li.
It's like family and friendship.
Jiang Li sat down weakly, staring blankly at the ceiling, and finally opened the envelope left on the desk. The handwriting was beautiful, it was Mu Qingxue's handwriting. Jiang Li stroked it gently, forcing himself to hold back the tears that were about to burst out.
"Xiao Li, please forgive me for saying goodbye to you in this way."
"Tomorrow is your birthday. Auntie has prepared your favorite tiramisu cake for you and put it in the refrigerator. Remember to eat it."
"Time flies! Eight years have already passed in a flash. The little one has slowly grown into a handsome young man (laughing). You are about to take the college entrance examination. It's a pity that I can't take you there in person. Don't blame me. It's really...it's really too sudden. I have to leave."
Jiang Li looked at the tear stains on the paper, and tears finally burst out.
"You're a hardworking child, and very smart. Your aunt knows that you train hard in your room every night. Xiaoli, lower your expectations of yourself. Even if the college entrance exam doesn't go well, there are countless paths in life. Sometimes, an ordinary life is the most worth looking forward to."
"Remember to put on more clothes when it's cold, don't kick off the quilt at night, and eat..."
"Xiao Li, you must be tired of reading all this rambling. One last thing. I left you a bank card on the table with 1 million federal coins in it. Be frugal and live a good life on your own."
"In the secret compartment behind the cabinet in your room is a present your parents left for your eighteenth birthday. Don't blame your parents; they also have their own reasons."
"Live a good life and cherish yourself, Xiaoli. Starting tomorrow, you will be an adult. You must think twice before making any decision."
"If, if things go well, my aunt will definitely come back."
"Love you, auntie."
Looking at the final signature, Jiang Li had already burst into tears.
