Shen Shixun was stunned, then smiled at Nan Zhi, "Don't be so surprised. If finding your father makes you happy, makes Jira happy, and allows me to see your family reunited when I go back next time, I think it's all worth it."
He couldn't speak, and Xiang Nanzhi lay down in his arms. "I can sense that you have some resentment towards your father, but believe me, no father would abandon his own child. He must have had unspeakable reasons."
“You’re a father now, right? You wouldn’t abandon Tangyuan, no, Xiang Yun… that’s the name my dad gave him.”
“Yun…” She was right, he would never abandon his child.
How could someone who has been abandoned do something so cruel?
“Yes.” Xiang Nanzhi didn’t dwell on the name issue, and continued, “So, you must know that your father must have his reasons. If I find him, you can ask him in person, but if I can’t find him, or if he’s no longer here, I also hope you know that your father must love you.”
"Just like my dad loves me, you see how much he dotes on me. Compared to my older brothers, he loves me the most. All fathers love their children, and your father loves you too."
Xiang Nanzhi reached out and touched the man's nose, her movements gentle and her voice tender, "Your father loves you, he loves Jira, and he loves your mother. Don't hate him; hating someone will make you unhappy."
"You know, don't hate someone, and also... and also..."
"What."
He held the woman's hand and kissed it deeply. "Also, you are a very good person. Although we have argued and had misunderstandings, in my heart, you are a good person, so your father must be a good person too."
Shen Shixun remained silent. Xiang Nanzhi felt that she might have persuaded him, so she quickly pressed her advantage, "I'll send someone to look for him, but I need you to provide me with some clues."
"It's too late, go to sleep."
It seems like all that was said was in vain.
Xiang Nanzhi was a little frustrated. "Shen Shixun, a mental illness requires a mental cure. Your mother is sick. Instead of taking her to Latu for treatment, why not tell her that you have news about your father? This news is more effective than medicine."
It was more effective than medicine and could give the mother renewed hope, but what followed was pain no less than being shattered to pieces.
As long as my mother is alive, as long as she lives to old age, it's fine. She can be unhealthy, she can be delirious, she can dream, but she should never, ever know what reality is like.
As a son, this was the only way he could show his filial piety to her.
“Shen Shixun…”
He pretended to be asleep, breathing shallowly. When he looked at Nan Zhi, he saw that she was actually asleep, so he turned off the lamp, hugged the man, and fell asleep without saying anything more.
In the darkness, the man saw not only darkness, but also the flickering lights outside the window, and under the lights, vast fields of flowers in the garden.
Shen Shixun wanted to return to Saigon. Xiang Nanzhi was reluctant to let him go, but there was nothing she could do to stop him. He didn't need the plane that Xiang Nanzhi had arranged, and he also refused the money that Xiang Nanzhi offered him.
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to get my mother medical treatment."
"I have money."
"Money is never a burden, take it."
Shen Shixun didn't accept the offer and left with only a black backpack on his back.
"Wait a minute!"
Xiang Nanzhi ran outside, startling Xiang Jingyi so much that he broke out in a cold sweat. "Zhizhi!"
Shen Shixun then stopped and said to Jing Yi with displeasure, "What's wrong with you? Can't you go outside for some fresh air?"
Xiang Nan knew that Shen Shixun was reluctant to leave. "When will you be back?"
"I'll be back after I finish my business."
"Then Xiaoyun and I will wait for you at home. Come back as soon as you're done. Call me anytime if anything happens."
"good."
Back in the living room, Ma Xiaorong changed her socks.
"Big brother, if Shen Shixun needs any help, please keep an eye out for him. Are you familiar with the doctor on Latour's side?"
"Not familiar with it."
"and you……"
"Don't worry, I'll call and ask them to take extra care of Shen Shixun's mother."
"That's good. His mother was very kind to me when I was on the grassland."
"Such a good method?"
"They fed me meat, fried mushrooms, and treated me to all sorts of delicious food and drinks. They even made me a handmade dress, and this ring... look... it's pure silver, his mother saved up for it."
Xiang Jing remained expressionless. "They live in tents and eat raw meat?"
"They eat raw meat, but they give me cooked meat. They know I don't like it, so they are more considerate of my taste."
"for example……"
"For example, she will cook rice for me."
"oh."
"Big brother!"
"I understand, I'll let the hospital know."
"If the medical expenses are very high, then come and tell me."
Xiang Nan didn't know exactly how much money Shen Shixun had, but she was worried that he didn't have enough. Xiang Jing looked at her as if she were a fool.
"Zhizhi, do you want me to marry Li Mingyue?"
"If you like it, then get married."
Xiang Nanzhi glanced at him, "But brother, Sister Su Lan contacted me again. She seems to still like you. It's up to you how you handle this relationship."
"But then again, your feelings are the most important. I hope you can choose what you like..."
"Um."
This is what family is like; he cares about her feelings, and she cares about his feelings too.
Xiang Jingyi patted his younger sister's ears and head, "Our Zhizhi has learned to care about people now."
"I'll always care about people, okay?"
