Chapter 161

"Mom." Qi Yan went to pottery Ru and hugged her.

Tao Yiru patted Qi Yan on the back and put a bunch of flowers in front of the tombstone: "your father will be very happy to know that you have found someone who can spend your life together."

Qi Yan turned his head to Cen Baihe who bowed to the tombstone, smiled and nodded: "HMM."

"It's windy on the mountain. Let's go back," Tao Yiru put on her gloves and looked very indifferent. Just a few years after her husband died, her child was also lost. During the day, she fought with a group of people in the company for power and profit. When she came home, she began to wash her face with tears. Many times, when she woke up, her pillow was wet.

Maybe she cried too much at that time, and her feelings were too strong at that time. Now she recalls her husband, but her mood is calm. The memory is still so clear, except that the feeling fades a little, loses its intensity, and leaves only regret and disappointment.

It's not that she doesn't love her husband, it's just that it's been too long... To forget the feeling of love.

Looking at the two young people holding themselves left and right, Tao Yiru looked back at the tombstone. She was unfortunate in her early years, and now she can be regarded as perfect.

Tao Yiru returned home, left two children for dinner, and drove them away. Young people have their own life. She is not an elder who likes to tie her children around. Sometimes she has a separate personal space, which can be regarded as an alternative enjoyment.

After six o'clock in the evening, Tao Yan suddenly found her. With him was another woman who looked very old.

Tao Yiru knew this woman, her sister-in-law. She felt guilty and told her that the child was not lost, but the sister-in-law sold by her good mother.

"Sit down." Tao Yiru pointed to the sofa and put her left leg on her right leg. "It's so late. What can I do for you?"

"Aunt," Tao Yan's lips trembled, "my father has advanced cancer. The doctor said he might be here for a few days. He said he wanted to see you."

"See me?" Tao Yiru looked at Tao Yan with a smile. "We are brothers and sisters, but how many brothers and sisters do we have? There's nothing to see."

When Tao Yiru said this, Tao Yan couldn't say anything else. He could only silently look at the red wine in Tao Yiru's hand, and the atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

Tao Yan's mother holds her hands. She is a cowardly woman. Even if she has a star son now, she doesn't dare to look at Tao Yiru. "Sister, I know it's hard for people to say these words now. I came with ah Yan today, not to persuade you, but to see you and... Your child."

"He's fine," Tao Yiru gently shook the wine in the glass. "It's not necessary to meet."

"I see," Tao's mother stood up and bowed to Tao Yiru. "Yi Ru, I'm sorry these years."

Tao Yiru didn't speak or move. She looked at the cowardly woman in front of her and said after a long time, "do you regret it?"

"I don't know what regret is," said Tao's mother, whose eyes were numb, "My family took your bride price and married to the Tao family. Your brother has a bad temper and beats people when he drinks too much, but I have no culture and ability. Since I was a child, I only saw a place as big as the head of the village to the mouth of the town. If I left the Tao family, my mother's family wouldn't want me. I don't know how to live outside."

She shook her head: "this whole life has passed. Ah Yan has become a big star, so he doesn't hit me anymore. I learned to surf the Internet and know that a woman like me is called... Call..." she tried to recall that idiom, but she couldn't remember it.

"Look at me, it's embarrassing again," she smiled awkwardly. "Many netizens say that people like me deserve to suffer all their lives. Maybe they're right. I've been like this all my life."

"Mom!" Tao Yan held Tao's mother's hand, "how can you say that about yourself?!"

Tao's mother smiled and shook her head: "it's better for the little girl now. She reads a lot and has an eye. She can live without relying on a man."

When she was a child, her family was poor and she didn't even read a book for a day. Her parents told her that she was a girl and wanted to take good care of her brother. When her brother grew up, she was a promising man and she wanted to take good care of her brother. Later, when her brother got married and her family was short of money, she married to the Tao family. They all said that the Tao family's two elders had a bad reputation. If a girl married to his family, she would be punished by her mother-in-law, but who asked her family to give her the bride price It's enough for her brother to marry the daughter-in-law of the neighboring village.

Then the days passed day by day. She walked around the farmland and stove all day. Even the TV could only be watched with her own men. She was stupid and timid. She couldn't compare with the little girl now.

Thinking of this, Tao's mother wanted to say that she didn't regret it. But when she opened her mouth, she couldn't say a word.

This life... That's it, that's all.

"I'll accompany you to the hospital." Tao Yiru put down her glass and handed over the coat brought by the servant. "Let's go."

Tao Yan walked behind his aunt and his mother. His heart was bitter. His aunt and his mother walked together. In the eyes of outsiders, they said they were mothers and daughters. I'm afraid some people would believe it. His father was not a good husband or a good father. He stayed up all night reading since childhood, and then had cosmetic surgery to make money desperately, just to make his mother live a good life.

But he became famous, but he didn't dare to stand up for his parents' divorce. He was afraid that the media would discredit him and affect his advertising endorsement, so his mother was still patient day by day. On the contrary, his father is alive and showing off to people from time to time. He has a star son.

Mingming was brought up by his mother, but in the end, it was his father. His mother still had to wait on his father at home.

Tao Yan felt more bitter. He walked quickly to Tao's mother and gently grabbed her shoulder.

The hospital where brother Tao lives is a famous liver disease hospital in the imperial capital. When Tao Yiru saw him, he was as thin as a log.

"Sister..."

Tao Yiru didn't take off her mask. She stood in front of Tao's father and looked at him expressionless, like a stranger.

"Yes, I'm sorry," Tao's father looked at Tao Yiru. "Sister, I'm sorry."

"Thirty years ago, you should have said this when you hit me. Twenty five years ago, when you lost my child with your parents," Tao Yiru looked calm. "I accept your sorry, but I don't forgive you."

"Ho ho." Tao Fu made a huge gasp. He looked at Tao Yiru with pain on his face.

"What do you want to say?" Tao Yiru's beautiful finger made a "Shh" action, "have you forgotten?"

Tao Fu stared at Tao Yiru.

"At that time, you said, what can I do with a girl film?"

"You see," Tao Yiru took off her mask, showed a beautiful smile, and then put on her mask, "now is the gap between me and you."

"In your life, you will be nothing but rubbish until you die." Tao Yiru sarcastically said, "disgusting."

Tao's father struggled to get up from the hospital bed, but now he can only wriggle on the bed. Tao Yiru couldn't help laughing and then turned out of the ward.

Tao's mother looked at the man in the ward, hesitated and followed Tao Yiru.

Neither of them spoke. Tao Yiru took off her mask and threw it into the trash can. Tao's mother didn't have any expression on her face. They walked into the elevator and went downstairs. Then Tao's mother saw the young man standing at the gate of the hospital.

The young man looks very good. His eyebrows and eyes look like his sister-in-law. He also holds a lady's coat and scarf in his hand. He should have come to pick up his sister-in-law specially.

"Mom, it's so cold, why do you wear so little?" the young man saw his sister-in-law, quickly walked up to her, put his coat on her, and thoughtfully tied up his scarf for her.

Mother Tao shook hands and put her hand into her coat pocket.

It seemed that he found her. The young man smiled and nodded at her, and then took his sister-in-law's hand and walked to a car.

Tao's mother looked at the back of her mother and son and couldn't help walking outside. When she knew that the cold wind was blowing on her face, she reacted and stopped.

"Mom," Tao Yan ran out of the gate and put a coat on her, "the doctor said, Dad, he's not very well."

Tao's mother grabbed her coat and nodded numbly.

A day later, Tao's father died because he was too ill.

The mother and son only prepared a simple funeral and buried Tao Fu.

"Yan, I said two days ago that your sister-in-law's children are getting married?" mother Tao sighed. "His wedding will certainly not invite us."

"Love invites or not, I don't have time to go," Tao Yan hissed. "Mom, don't worry about these things now. Just take good care of your health."

"Our family owes others. How can we not worry," Tao mother took out a box. "I heard that rich families pay attention to more gold and silver when they get married. I don't have anything to give. Please give it to me."

Tao Yan opened it and found that there was a golden Guanyin weighing tens of grams. It was something that Cen Baihe or Qi Yan despised, but it was an extremely precious good thing for his mother.

"Mom! Why are you doing this!" Tao Yan said miraculously, "this is the money you have saved for a long time!"

"With you, am I still afraid of being short of money?" Tao's mother smiled. "You should do mom a favor."

Tao Yan endured and agreed.

A day later, Qi Yan looked at the red velvet box that Tao Yan sent to him and stretched out his hand to open the box.

Guanyin's carving is not very good, and the box is not very high-grade, but the weight of this thing is not light. It will cost more than 10000 to buy it.

Tao Yan thought Qi Yan would not accept it, or showed a disdainful expression.

"Thank you," Qi Yan took out an invitation from the drawer. "I hope your mother can have time to attend my wedding on the 18th of this month."

Tao Yan looked at the name Zhou Cui written on the invitation, and his mood was very complicated.

"Our family dares to finish the funeral. It may be inappropriate for us to attend your wedding."

"You misunderstood. I only invited your mother. It has nothing to do with you," Qi Yan tilted his head slightly. "In addition, I never believe in these. I believe in science."

Fuck you!

A feng shui master said he believed in science and was shameless!

Tao Yan took the invitation back. He knew his mother wouldn't go, just as he knew that he was unpopular in Qi Yan.

That's it. Their two families don't have much relationship now.

Years are quiet and good. Let the past be buried in years.
