Seeing Li Dongyun, who was usually very stable, suddenly have tears blurring her vision, Yun Duoduo was also very sad.
In her past life, she had felt guilty for a long time because she couldn't find her younger brother, let alone Li Dongyun's biological son.
She held Li Dongyun's hand and whispered, "Auntie, don't worry, you will meet Bao'er sooner or later."
After saying that, she thought of herself and advised Li Dongyun, "Look at me, I am a good example. I was separated from you for so long, but we were still able to meet in the end. I believe that you and Bao'er can do it too."
Li Dongyun remained silent. She did have this hope, but she dared not think too much about it, fearing that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Over the years, whenever she sees a child around Bao'er's age, she always takes a second look.
Thinking about it, Yun Duoduo asked Li Dongyun, "By the way, Aunt, what are Bao'er's special features?"
“Bao’er’s distinctive feature,” Li Dongyun blurted out without much thought, “is that he has a red birthmark on his buttocks. When he was born, my former mother-in-law said that her grandson must have been born into a wealthy family in his past life, which is why he has such a prominent birthmark.”
Yun Duoduo quickly nodded and comforted her, "If there are distinctive features, there's nothing to be afraid of. Maybe it's just like me and my parents, and we'll run into them someday."
At this point, Yan Dongdong stepped forward, took Li Dongyun's hand, and comforted her in a childish voice, "That's right, Auntie, my sister-in-law's word is very reliable. She said that if she can do it, she definitely can. You will definitely find Bao'er, don't worry."
Li Dongyun was truly pleased to hear Yan Dongdong's words. She stroked Yan Dongdong's head and said with a loving expression, "This child is so smart. When I see him, it's like seeing my precious baby."
After saying that, Li Dongyun still held Yan Dongdong's hand and refused to let go. She smiled and said to Yun Duoduo, "Duoduo, do you have anything to do today? If you don't, bring Bao'er to my house for a visit. I'll give Dongdong a gift."
Yun Duoduo was a little embarrassed, because Dongdong had just arrived and she hadn't made any arrangements yet.
But Yan Dongdong was also shouting, "Sister-in-law, I want to go, I want to go to Aunt Dongyun's house to play."
Since both of them were willing, Yun Duoduo didn't bother to object. She nodded, "Okay, go ahead then. I'll go say hello to my parents."
After saying that, Yun Duoduo went to the shop to tell her family.
Over here, Yan Dongdong held Li Dongyun's hand, blinked her big eyes and asked, "Aunt Dongyun, don't worry, isn't Bao'er the same age as me? I'll help you find Bao'er, okay?"
Without waiting for Li Dongyun to reply, Yan Dongdong continued, "My sister-in-law said that the school I'm going to attend in Kyoto is huge, with so many children there. I'll ask around for you one by one. As long as you find someone who shares my birthday, I'll look at their buttocks to see if they have any red birthmarks. If they do, I'll bring them back to you."
These words made Li Dongyun both amused and touched. Of course, she didn't expect a child to help her find someone, but the thought itself warmed her heart.
She squatted down, patted Yan Dongdong's head, and said, "This child is so smart and adorable. In the future, when you're not at school, come to your aunt's house with your sister-in-law more often, okay?"
Yan Dongdong immediately reached out and hugged Li Dongyun's arm, nodding repeatedly, "Okay, I like Aunt Dongyun the most."
Yan Dongdong's action of hugging Li Dongyun's neck instantly brought tears to Li Dongyun's eyes, making her feel as if she were being hugged by Bao'er.
With tears in her eyes, she agreed, "Okay, okay, Auntie will wait for Dongdong."
The two of them really got to know each other very quickly. By the time Yun Duoduo returned to the shop and came back, they were already quite familiar with each other.
Li Dongyun squatted down in front of Yan Dongdong, talking about something, both of them smiling.
Even Yun Duoduo was a little surprised, because Li Dongyun and Yan Dongdong are both people who don't like to talk to others, but when they met, they got along very well.
Yun Duoduo walked up with a smile and called out to the two of them, "Auntie, it's all settled. I've already told my family. Dongdong and I will have dinner at your house tonight before going home."
Li Dongyun immediately stood up, took Yan Dongdong's hand with one hand, and said to Duoduo, "Okay, let's go back now. I'll ask my nanny to cook some delicious dishes for you today."
Li Dongyun's home is a bit far from Yun Duoduo's shop. They took the bus there, which took about half an hour.
It was already evening when I got home.
Li Dongyun led them to a courtyard and knocked on the door.
The woman who opened the door was a kind-looking woman in her fifties, holding scallions in her hand, presumably cooking.
As Li Dongyun led them inside, she introduced them, "Duoduo, this is Aunt Zhou. She usually helps me cook two meals a day and does some cleaning. She's been helping me for many years."
After saying that, Li Dongyun introduced to Aunt Zhou, "Aunt Zhou, this is my niece, I told you about her. This is Dongdong, Duoduo's brother-in-law."
Aunt Zhou had heard Li Dongyun mention Yun Duoduo before, and she immediately greeted Yun Duoduo with a smile, "Miss Li..."
This title was quite unfamiliar to Yun Duoduo; no one had ever called her that before, and the Li family had also agreed not to change her surname.
She smiled at Aunt Zhou and said, "Aunt Zhou, you can just call me Duoduo."
Aunt Zhou immediately nodded and invited them into the courtyard to sit down, serving them tea as she did so. "Alright, your aunt has been talking about you to me a lot lately, saying that she and you are really compatible."
After asking Dongdong's name, Aunt Zhou smiled and asked him, "Dongdong, what do you like to eat? I'll make you something to eat."
Yan Dongdong had a sweet tongue, and he nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Zhou, I'll eat anything."
"This child is so polite." Aunt Zhou patted Yan Dongdong's head and went to the kitchen in the backyard to cook.
Then, Li Dongyun stood up and pointed to the house at the far end of the yard, "Duoduo, shall I take you to see where I work?"
Yun Duoduo nodded and immediately pulled Dongdong to follow behind Li Dongyun, first taking a walk around the yard.
Li Dongyun lived in a courtyard of moderate size, which was apparently given to her by Li Zhengyang.
There are five rooms in the courtyard, with front and back yards. The courtyard is kept very clean and tidy inside and out.
Li Dongyun lived in one room and prepared a guest room. She simply knocked down the remaining three rooms and turned them into her workspace.
When Yun Duoduo arrived at the workshop, she was truly stunned by what she saw inside.
