Cheng Jingmo still stood there, staring blankly, until the mother, son, and daughter disappeared from view.
Yu Xiangyang came over and put his arm around Cheng Jing's shoulders. "Don't cry. I'll take you out for a good meal."
Cheng Jingmo pushed him away and said, "Get out of the way."
He turned his face away and secretly wiped the tears from his face.
Yu Xiangyang coaxed Cheng Jingmo in a rare gentle voice, "It's no use being sad, they're all gone. I'll take you out for something delicious, and you'll feel better."
“No!”
Cheng Jingmo turned around and left first.
Yu Xiangyang cursed secretly from behind: "You don't know what's good for you!"
When he got home, the first thing Cheng Jingmo did was to go to the child's room to see his gift.
He first went to Coco's room, where there was a painting on the table.
Cheng Jingmo picked it up and looked at it carefully. The painting was of their family.
The sky was blue and the grass was green. Xiaojie took them to fly kites. The three children were laughing happily. He and Yu Xiangnian sat under a tree. Yu Xiangnian looked at them and smiled, and he looked at Yu Xiangnian and smiled again.
Coco's paintings are really good. Although the facial features are all drawn the same, the soul of the character is brought out.
Especially Yu Xiangnian's lazy expression, which captures the essence of the painting.
He came to An An's room again. There were several cubes and a letter on An An's desk.
An An started playing with cubes when he went to Yu Xiangyang's house. Yu Xiangyang taught him how to fold and play with them.
An An's handwriting is neat and tidy, and it was taught to her by Song Huaiqian himself.
Song Huaiqian raised An An but failed to raise Ke Ke, as Ke Ke's handwriting is not very good.
An An said in the letter that his father could play with the blocks he folded when he was bored.
An An also said, "Dad, don't worry. I will take good care of Mom and my sister. I will miss you. Tell Uncle that I will miss him too."
Cheng Jingmo took the letter, looked at the painting and the squares again, and tears came to his eyes again.
Look, the two children knew to leave gifts for him, but Yu Xiangnian didn’t even know to give him one!
Now that he was alone, he could cry without restraint.
He was afraid that his tears would drip onto the letter and the painting, so he kept wiping them with his handkerchief.
After venting his emotions, he took the gift the child gave him and went back to his room.
He opened the drawer to put the gift in and saw a box wrapped with a ribbon.
There was a card pinned to it, which read: My beloved husband, this pen is for you. Put it in your pocket every day, just like I am with you. Love you~~~
Cheng Jingmo snorted lightly, "That's more like it."
The two children gave him gifts, which must have been taught by Yu Xiangnian. She still has some conscience.
Isn’t Yu Xiangnian the best at making people happy?
The two children not only gave gifts to Cheng Jingmo, but also to their grandparents.
I gave grandma a brush as a gift. She likes to paint, so she can use it to paint. I also gave grandpa a pendant to hang in the car. He feels like he sees them every day.
The house suddenly became quiet. Cheng Jingmo and Xiaojie only came home on weekends. On weekdays, only the old couple and the nanny were left at home.
Cheng Jingmo waited and waited, and finally received the first letter two months after Xiangnian and the others left.
The letter was written by An An.
An An said that they were living well there and that their grandparents and father didn't need to worry.
They were enrolled in a local primary school, but they could not understand what their teachers and classmates said, and the food in the school was not tasty, so they were not used to it.
Coco cried and didn't want to go to school, but her mother first gave her some advice and then talked her into it, and Coco went to school again.
It is very free to take classes here. You don’t have to put your hands behind your back and you can stand in any posture you like.
The students here can’t even do single-digit addition. There is very little class time here. We have to learn to bake cakes, wash clothes, and sometimes weed in the garden.
An An wrote whatever came to his mind, and ended up writing a whole page of rambling. He didn't know how to write some of the words, so he wrote them in pinyin.
The letter also included two photos, one of the three of them taken in the embassy, and the other of the two children taken at school.
The three members of the Song family took turns passing the letter and photos around, reading them over and over again.
Yu Xiangnian kept his word this time.
Cheng Jingmo receives letters from Yu Xiangnian every month, and the letters always contain photos.
The days of anticipation passed slowly, the weather changed from cold to warm, and then from warm to cold again.
Meng Yiming still came to the Song family to visit the two elders every few days, just like before, to have a meal together and chat.
Song Huaiqian had already bought two houses and gave the keys to Cheng Jingmo and Meng Yiming respectively.
The two politely pushed it back and forth with Song Huaiqian, but Lin Yunyi finally said, "We just happen to have the ability, so don't refuse. This is what we parents want for our children. As long as you live well, we'll be satisfied."
The two took the keys.
Song Huaiqian said, "When you have time, go and take a look at the decoration, furniture, etc., and tell me if there is anything you need to know."
Meng Yiming said: "Thank you, uncle. We will take care of the decoration and furniture ourselves."
Song Huaiqian just said politely that he didn't have time to find someone to decorate the house or buy furniture.
Song Huaiqian said, "If you need money, just tell me."
Meng Yiming still said: "No, thank you uncle."
Lin Yunyi said: "Yiming, I'll leave the house matter to you. Xiaoye is too far away to take care of it."
Meng Yiming nodded, "This should have been done by me."
Meng Yiming asked Cheng Jingmo to go house hunting.
Cheng Jingmo didn't plan to move out, so he didn't care whether the house was round or square.
Meng Yiming said, "Just consider it a favor. I need to hurry up and decorate the house in anticipation of getting married."
Cheng Jingmo glanced at him.
I also feel sorry for him, as he is still single at his age.
