Chapter 314: Make a wish to Aunt Moon!
"Actually...nothing...I just really miss Aunt Yueyue..." Jiang Xiaoxiao said hard, but her rosy cheeks betrayed her.
Yan Qiu was so amused that she couldn't stop laughing. "Hahaha, Auntie will go and see if Auntie Yueyue has come out, okay?"
"It's cold now and you're weak. If you go out you might catch a cold." Yan Qiu gently pinched her and put her on the bed.
Jiang Xiaoxiao pouted, "Okay then..."
"If Auntie Moon comes out, Auntie must tell me quickly!"
"No problem!" Yan Qiu walked out to the balcony with a smile.
I looked and saw that it had just gotten dark.
The moon was out, but not bright enough to be seen clearly. Yan Qiu replied, "It hasn't come out yet. Aunt Moon is shy and is hiding in the clouds."
"You'll have to wait a little longer."
"Okay!" Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly.
The porridge Qi Jinchen sent someone to buy arrived. "Eat something, or your body won't be able to handle it."
The aroma of the porridge teased Jiang Xiaoxiao's nose. She took a deep breath and said, "Wow! It smells so good..." Her little stomach rumbled.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was worried about Aunt Moon.
From time to time, her eyes would drift over, she would take a couple of mouthfuls of porridge and glance over, "Brother, hasn't Aunt Moon come out yet?"
Qi Jinchen patted her little head and said, "Eat, and we'll come out after you're done."
Worried that she would eat too fast because of the moon and get a stomachache, he specifically reminded her, "Eat slowly."
"Yeah!" Jiang Xiaoxiao was a little anxious.
"Will Aunt Moon run away?"
"No, eat slowly. Aunt Moon is waiting for you in the sky. If you are anxious, you will have a stomachache. If you have a stomachache, you won't be able to see Aunt Moon, right?" Qi Jinchen was patient and thought the little guy was really cute.
I couldn't help but hook her little nose with my index finger.
The little nose is tinged with a hint of red, so cute!
Jiang Xiaoxiao drank the porridge slowly, "Then I will put my heart in my stomach!" She drank the porridge quietly.
She was also afraid of having a stomachache and missing the chance to meet Aunt Moon.
The next time we meet will be tomorrow.
She can't wait!
I really regret not making a wish to Aunt Moon before.
Why!
Jiang Xiaoxiao's mind was full of random thoughts, her eyes fixed on the porridge, she put spoonful after spoonful into her mouth, but she didn't see the porridge getting any smaller, "Why is he drinking this porridge so slowly?"
"Oh, I'm so anxious, brother, hasn't Aunt Moon come out yet?"
"Are you waiting for me?"
Yan Qiu was listening beside him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Auntie, can I go take a look at you?"
"Okay!" Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyes were burning.
Yan Qiu walked out and pretended to talk to Yueliang. After a moment, he came back and said, "Aunt Yueliang just told me that she will wait for you to finish your meal."
"If you don't eat well and become weak, Auntie Moon will get angry and won't accept your wish."
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao immediately became well behaved.
Although his eyes would drift out the window from time to time, his mouth did not stop and he drank the porridge slowly.
I finally finished drinking it after half an hour.
When her stomach stopped hurting, she immediately jumped out of bed and said, "I'm going to make a wish to Aunt Moon!"
"Auntie Moon!" Jiang Xiaoxiao's calves ran too fast.
Yan Qiu couldn't catch up at all.
She quickly caught up with her and put clothes on her. "Xiaoxiao, be careful. It's cold outside. Be careful not to catch a cold!" She sighed helplessly and stood beside the little girl.
Qi Jinchen followed closely behind and looked up at the sky.
The night sky was pitch black, stars twinkled, and the moon was particularly bright, casting frost all over the earth. Qi Jinchen squatted beside the little girl and said, "Make a wish. Remember, you can't say it out loud."
"It won't work if you tell me about it."
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded heavily, clasped her hands together, and silently made a wish in her heart: to find her mother. She hoped that Aunt Moon could help Xiaoxiao find her mother...
I recited it silently three times.
Jiang Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and looked up at Auntie Moon expectantly, "Did Auntie Moon receive my wish?"
"Not yet, we need some time to wait." Qi Jinchen said gently.
Even though she had to wait, Jiang Xiaoxiao was already very happy. "Thank you, Aunt Yueyue. I will wait, no matter how long it takes."
Jiang Xiaoxiao looked up for a long time.
Gusts of cool wind blew over her, and only after Yan Qiu urged her for the third time did she reluctantly leave.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was reluctant to leave, looking back every few steps. "I'll watch for a while longer. Who knows, maybe Aunt Moon will see my sincerity and help my wish come true."
Finally, she said, "No, no, we can't be so selfish." "If we speed up the process, we'll have to cut in line, and then other people's wishes will be delayed..."
Qi Jinchen didn't know what the little girl was mumbling about.
Smiling, he said, "Your toys are here. Do you want to hear a story or draw?"
"Yes!" Jiang Xiaoxiao really wanted to draw what her mother looked like!
Although it was a little blurry, she missed her mother a little.
Jiang Xiaoxiao sat down on it, and the hand with the retention needle was careful and could make small movements, while her right hand was responsible for painting.
Her paintings are also hazy.
I just made a rough draft and laid the foundation.
Just stood there in a daze.
Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't put pen to paper for a long time and didn't know how to adjust the colors. Her mother was too vague in her memory. She left when she was one year old, although she could understand things.
As time goes by, the memory becomes more and more unclear.
Qi Jinchen was sitting aside reading a book while Yan Qiu was browsing his phone.
The years are quiet and good.
He saw that the little girl hadn't drawn the brush for a long time and was curious, "What's wrong with the girl?"
"I forgot what my mother looks like." Jiang Xiaoxiao said aggrievedly.
Staring at the drawing board, I don’t know where to start.
She pointed at the painting with a base color, on which a human figure was vaguely visible, but only the face and body could be roughly distinguished.
There are other colors, which are more like the house in Huaihua Village.
Others...
I can't tell.
After all, only the base color was laid without painting the details, so there is nothing extra to see.
"I've forgotten what my mother looks like. My memory of her face is getting more and more blurry. I used to be able to draw a little outline, but now I can only imagine it like this."
"I don't even know how to mix the colors..." Jiang Xiaoxiao said pitifully, her voice getting lower and lower.
Yan Qiu's heart ached when he heard this.
Qi Jinchen stared at the hazy painting, pursed his lips, and said, "The memory is fuzzy, which means I will be able to see this person at some point in the future."
"Why is my memory so hazy?" Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't understand.
But after hearing my brother's explanation, I felt much better.
Qi Jinchen smiled, "It's because people grow up. You're already seven years old, and Mom has grown up too. The image is fading. This means that in the future, you will see the person in this memory and have a new impression of him."
He told a lie.
In fact, Qi Jinchen couldn't be sure whether Jiang Xiaoxiao's mother was still alive.
All I can say is, do your best.
Jiang Xiaoxiao laughed, "Hmm! It seems Aunt Moon received my wish!"
“So happy!”
