Chapter 167



Chapter 167

May Day is coming soon!

"Nuannuan, get up, we are going to attend my uncle's wedding."

"Mom, candy, wedding candy."

Nuannuan remembered that there was wedding candy.

"Yes, there are wedding candies. Nuannuan has a really good memory."

Xu Di gently patted Nuannuan's raised little butt, like a little ostrich with her head buried in the quilt.

"Put on your clothes and go."

Zhang Ostrich came out and asked his mother to put on clothes.

Xu Di first put on a sweater and pants for Nuannuan, and then put on the sweater he found yesterday.

Bright red sweater, made of pure wool, very soft. The Yuanbao needle woven by Xu Di.

"nice!"

Nuannuan looked down at her red clothes and smiled.

"Let's go, wash your face and put on perfume."

The wind is strong in spring, and if you don’t apply something, your skin will be dried out.

Since there was no special children's skin cream, Xu Di applied some of his own vanishing cream to Nuannuan.

I just washed my face and put some cold cream on it. My little face smells so good and smooth. I really want to take a bite of it.

"Go ahead, go find grandma to eat first, and mom will wash her face and comb her hair."

Nuannuan ran out to have dinner with her grandmother.

Xu Di washed her face and brushed her teeth, combed her hair into a low ponytail, and applied some cold cream.

Black pants with a blue crew neck sweater on top and the shirt collar turned outside.

It’s not cold today, so Xu Di and Nuan Nuan didn’t wear coats.

I made my own backpack and filled it with warm spare clothes and pants, a water bottle, a small doll, handkerchiefs, toilet paper and other common items.

Nuannuan has not yet grown her hair, and has shaved her head. Xu Di put on the melon-shaped hat knitted with fine wool and set off.

Chao Heng's wedding was held in the cafeteria of the military compound, and they would stay in the compound for a few days.

When Xu Di arrived, Chao Heng and his friends had already set out to pick up the bride.

"Second Aunt, sister, have some candy."

As soon as Xu Di entered the room, Xuan He rushed over.

"The second son's wife is here, Nuan Nuan, do you miss grandma?"

Mother Zhang was wearing a dark red coat today, with her hair tied up, and she was dressed up carefully.

"Brother, wedding candy."

Nuannuan did not answer her grandmother's question because she didn't quite recognize the person in front of her.

"Second sister-in-law, where is my second brother?"

Zhang Chaoru didn't see Zhang Chaoyang, she was still thinking about getting closer to him.

“No holiday.”

Zhang Chaoyang called me a few days ago and said that their school had a task during the May Day holiday.

“What a busy man!”

Zhang Chaoru said it out of habit, and felt a little regretful after saying it. She wanted to see her second sister-in-law's expression.

Unfortunately, Xu Di had already gone far away.

The best way to distance yourself from someone is to ignore her, that kind of casual ignorance.

"you……"

Zhang Chaoru wanted to say something, but then he remembered his father-in-law's words and the people in the room, and in the end he said nothing.

If you are angry, hold it in.

Xu Di is really not familiar with Zhang Chaoyang's relatives, except for Zhang Chaoheng who is getting married today.

Nuannuan followed Xuanhe to get the wedding candy. Xu Di was worried and followed the two children.

"Sister, here are some delicious dishes for you."

Xuan He pulled Nuan Nuan, and there were several plates of food on the table.

Sugar, melon seeds, peanuts, peach cakes, apples...there are not many snacks at this time.

"Wedding candy, brother, I want wedding candy."

Nuannuan pointed at the table, but she was short and couldn't see it, let alone reach it.

"There are also peach cakes, do you want some, sister?"

"No, I want wedding candy, for grandma."

Nuannuan was anxious because she saw several people taking candies from the table.

"Okay, got it. I'll get it for you."

Xuan He stood on tiptoe, reached out and grabbed a handful of candy, and stuffed it into his warm pocket.

The pockets of the sweater are not big, just to look good.

"Sister, it's full."

"Well, that's enough."

Nuannuan patted her pocket and stopped asking for candy.

Xu Di took the two children to stand aside as there were too many people and it would be easy to get squeezed.

"Chao Ru, who is that woman over there?"

"Which one?"

"The one with the two children, the one standing next to your nephew."

The person who was speaking was a girl from the Fang family in the compound, who was related to Grandma Fang.

"My second brother's wife and children."

"Zhang Chaoyang's wife?"

The woman looked surprised. She didn't expect that Zhang Chaoyang's wife was quite good-looking.

Her daughter is already this big, and if you look closely, this child looks quite like Zhang Chaoyang.

"Why, are you still upset?"

"No, that's all out of date. I'm doing fine now, I just saw that the clothes the mother and daughter were wearing were very special, so I was just curious."

Zhang Chaoru took a look and thought it was quite nice, especially the red sweater.

Zhang Chaoru was about to say something but was interrupted by the crackling sound of firecrackers downstairs.

Here comes the bride, here comes the bride...

The children downstairs were cheering. The girls wanted to see if the bride was pretty, and the boys wanted to pick up the firecrackers on the ground.

Xu Di pulled Nuannuan and Xuan He who wanted to join in the fun, but many people would come in soon and they couldn't join in.

The bride came up and Xu Di took a look. She was wearing a red dress, which looked very festive.

After not staying in the house for long, everyone moved to the cafeteria.

The wedding process was similar to Zhang Chaoru’s before. Nuannuan watched it for a while, found it boring, and wanted to leave.

"Mom, get out."

"Okay, let's go."

Xu Di took the two children out of the cafeteria. The two children squatted on the ground and picked up the fallen furry dog.

"Xuan He?"

Xu Di saw Xuan He, who was squatting on the ground, suddenly raised his head and looked at the woman not far away.

Xu Di also recognized her. This was Xuan He’s mother, Ren Huan.

"Xuan He, I'm your mother. Don't you recognize your mother?"

Ren Huan looked at the child in front of her. She got married not long after her divorce.

She had to adapt to her new marriage, avoid rumors, and get unexpectedly pregnant. One thing after another, it was very difficult for her to cope with it.

Feeling resentful towards Zhang Chaolang, she took her anger out on Xuan He.

Her mother told her not to vent her anger on the child, saying that it was an adult matter and had nothing to do with the child.

At that time, her life was a mess and she couldn't listen to anything.

It was not until the baby in her belly was born that she looked at her little son in the cradle and recalled Xuan He’s childhood.

After the confinement period, she went to her ex-mother-in-law's house to see her child, but the child was not there.

She guessed that Xuan He might be at Zhang Chaoyang's grandmother's house. However, she was afraid of the old lady and did not dare to go to her house.

"Second Aunt, go home."

Xuan He stood up, took Nuannuan, ran to Xu Di, and held her hand tightly.

"Xuan He, don't you recognize your mother?"

Ren Huan burst into tears and she wanted to make amends.

"Ren Huan, the child is crying. Why did you take so long to go to the toilet?"

In the distance, a man holding a child walked over. Xu Di and the others could hear the child's sobbing clearly.

"Xuan He, Mom, that's my little brother, do you want to take a look?"

Ren Huan turned around and took his youngest son. He was about to say something, but Xuan He had already pulled Nuan Nuan towards the cafeteria.

Xu Di took a look and saw that the family of three looked quite neat and tidy.

Xu Di went to chase the two children and ignored Xuan He's mother who was in tears.

Since you have made a choice, you must bear the consequences. There is no medicine for regret in the adult world.

The child is so innocent. Who could have known that Xuan He cried secretly that night?

The child’s carefree childhood ended early because of his parents.

Xu Di didn't want to judge whether what they did was right or wrong, she just felt sorry for Xuan He.

Looking at Xuan He who didn't say a word to her, Ren Huan cried even more.
